@zayno I am talking in general

@Alisha01: Not all but maybe some old generations have rascist mind or act. But young generations don't.

Kind of

sometimes they make of of black people and maybe some Chinese people too. But only few are actually racist.

Korean people might get nervous when they meet foreigners as they feel awkward and don't know how to talk to them.
Sadly, people from western country such as North America or Europe tend to be get Korean people's interest and treated better compared to people from Asia or Africa are.
Of course, it depends on a person but in my opinion, it is true.

@newid77 thank you. I don't understand why Korean treat Whites better. We're all humans.

@Neutah ok. I have heard that Korean are a homogeneous race. I guess that whenever you see a foreigner, you might get curious. In Europe we are a multicultural society so we're used to see any kind of ethnicities.

@Alisha01: We have very very big gap between generations(Maybe world best). So 'Koreans are' is not good to appreciate Korean society.

@Neutah did you understand the word homogeneous? I meant that there are very very few foreigners in Korea, so I was not assessing the country.

It's gradually getting better, though. Foreign population is growing, and so does people's perception of foreign people. But especially the old people still tend to be racists, as far as I feel.
