Koreaboo

A non-native Korean who is obsessed with Korean culture to the point where they denounce their own national/native identity and proclaim that they are Korean.

These people typically start off as K-Pop fans, but some Koreaboo's also start off as StarCraft II or League of Legends fans since they are very famous competitive sports in South Korea.

The word "Koreaboo" itself comes from the term "weeaboo"; a non-native Japanese person who is obsessed with Japanese culture.
That girl over there listens to K-Pop and always wear K-Pop shirts. She's definitely a Koreaboo!
