Koreaboo

A person infatuated with Korea and the Korean people. Koreaboo's are especially prevalent in parts of Europe, North America and South-East Asia although they can appear anywhere at any time. Koreaboo's may also be people with slight Korean DNA who make it their entire personality trait or only discuss their Korean background. Others may be people who're desperate to appear Korean and may audition for Kpop companies or have a weird obsession with Kmedia (especially aeni & manhwa). Although this disease of an obsession is quite common, there are many people who genuinely respect Korea and it's people.

Koreaboo's are the younger siblings of Sinoboo's / Chinaboo's. They may even have a slight obsession with Chinese idols or actors due to Kpop and Cpop sharing close similarities and the recent rise of the Cdrama, Donghua and Manhua industry.

Koreaboo

Non korean person who is obsessed with kpop or kdramas, watch kdramas or kpop on daily basis. Learn korean language just because of kpop or kdramas. Think that korean men are the most handsone asians, fantasizing korean men in sexual manner. Thinking all korean people have perfect skin naturally (based on what they have seen on korean media), thinking all koreans are the same as they were shown in stupid kdramas, thinking korea is just like it is shown on the kdrama. etc.

Trying to look and behave like "koreans": doing selfies in uzzlang style, applying makeup in korean style the way korean girls apply it. clothing in "korean" style.
Eating spicy noodles or kimchi because they think its a regular meal of all koreans.

Their biggest dream is to date a korean guy.

They have trash taste in music. Most of them are ugly and insecure about themselves, have zerow personality and sense of humor. You can often see them uploading videoes of reactions on kpop videoes or making dance covers on shitty kpop music, having profile pictures set as kpop idols.

After all of that these suckers have no respect or love to korea and korean people at all.
