A term applied to a short man whenever he is assertive or commanding. If the exact same attitude was taken by a taller man, no one would think twice.

Short Korean Man Syndrome 

Short Korean Man (SKM) Syndrome is a mental disease characterized by a short man of Korean descent who lives in his own fantasy world. The short Korean man believes he knows what is best for others because he posses a supreme mind with vast intellectual powers, when in fact he does not and impacts those around him negatively. He rarely leaves his living quarters and surronds himself with those who will listen to his delusional beliefs. The inferiority complex stems from being both short and Korean.

Prime examples of those who suffer from SKM are:
Kim Il-sung
Kim Jong-il
Kim Jong-un
Alex Ahn

short man's syndrome 

A term used to dehumanize short men. On the basis of this prejudiced term, a short man isn't allowed to do anything assertive, confident, or generally masculine without being accused of overcompensating or having short man's syndrome.

Whereas if a taller man exhibited the same exact behavior, nobody would bat an eyelash.

I rudely shoved that short guy at the bar out of my way, and he got all angry about it. Talk about short man's syndrome!
