Are you Korean?

derogatory term

brief introduction

The original meaning of the word "Korean" refers to China people whose ancestral home is "Korean" or foreigners from Korea. Nowadays, it has gradually extended into a derogatory term in China culture and is widely used with several mainstream derogatory terms. This word is understood as: vanity, mental disability, neither male nor female. Although it is not easy to use the name of a national as a derogatory term, and it has seriously hurt the friendship between the Chinese and Korean people, the practice of using "Koreans" as a derogatory term among the masses has been repeatedly banned.

origin

Greater China

In Greater China, the word "Korean" has two derogatory meanings: "mental retardation" and "sissy" or "homosexuality". Due to the differences of national cultures, some popular national thoughts in South Korea began to have the shadow of "stealing the limelight", "exaggeration" and "vanity". The South Korean government and educational institutions began a "cultural aggression" against foreign countries, forging historical basis and claiming that many historical celebrities and traditions in China came from South Korea (this has aroused the contempt of Korean historians all over the world); Similarly, Japan's mountain cities, flower arranging and Jesus Christ in the Middle East all survived. As such things happen from time to time, the derogatory term "Korean Wave" has gradually become popular in Asia, Europe and America. The reason why "Korean" is translated into "homosexuality" is the same as that in Europe and America. Please see below. Similarly, "Are you Korean?" This question is often understood as "Are you gay?"

Euro-American area

In addition, in European and American countries, the word "Korean" is understood as "homosexual" and "racist" in slang. The reason is that the dress of male pop music groups in Korean pop culture is often too feminine, which has caused discrimination among many conservatives in Europe and America. The word "Korean" has gradually become popular, usually referring to "homosexuality"; Korean gay men are the most popular group in American gay society. This phenomenon has seriously caused racial discrimination against Koreans in northern China, and Japanese and Americans have also been implicated.

According to the investigation and statistics of racists, among the immigrants from Europe and America, South Korea is the immigrant group with the most serious racial discrimination. Many white and black societies have strong vigilance and negative feelings towards Asians (especially Koreans), and there are many social reasons. One of the most well-known reasons recently is that the murderer of the campus shooting in Virginia, USA in 2007 was Seung-Hui Cho, a 23-year-old Korean student.
