It's less than 2 years now. And yes they are crybabies. I'm not saying there aren't any tough guys in Korea, but I don't get why everybody points to the military service as evidence that they are supposedly tough. If anything that makes them weaker. Conscription weakens the populace.
This is the right attitude to have. Threads like this are always funny to me because it ignores one of the most important things about dating: attitude and how you present yourself to the world. Stop being so hung up on race. An asian guy who complains about his race for his ability not get laid is failing to take responsibility for himself and the things he can take control over. In my early 20s I was a socially retarded asian manlet in the midwest and I still somehow find myself with white girlfriends. Being older, more confident, more active, and more fit (still a manlet though) I have a lot more control over whether or not I meet women. So obviously race isn't the deciding factor! Two guys I hang out a lot with are these two white dudes who are good looking and tall with active personalities. They definitely get looks from women when we enter a bar together, but there are women who ignore them and respond to me, for whatever reason. Not every girl wants a white dude, and there is more to a person than just his race.
To further my point, I know two guys who use their race as an excuse. One is a white guy who is in Korea as an English teacher. The other is of Korean descent (the same friend I made a thread about). The white dude is a quite fit and normal looking dude, but socially awkward and negative (also my height). Going against the common conception that it is easy for white guys, he would fail with every chick he hit on and he would incessantly complain about it, just like the Korean guy. The white guy would always say that Korean girls just want a tall Korean dude despite clearly seeing other white guys succeed. My Korean friend also enjoys complaining that Korean girls want white guys, despite seeing evidence to the contrary right in front him. It was funny seeing these two complain the girls want a white guy/Korean guy, while sitting in the same literal venue.
What i'm saying is if you take responsibility instead of whining about "your race" (or whatever you want to complain about) you can have control over your life more, including how you meet women.
