Korea-addict 

Someone who has found themselves completely emerged into the Korean culture to the point where they want to live and move there.
To spot one, most likely a Korea-addict has a bunch of Kpop songs on their music device, their youtube subscription list is filled with bands, they have music videos saved to either their phone, music device or to their phone, they have pictures somewhere of the members from their favorite stowed away where no one will find them, etc.
You have nothing but these creepy pictures on your computer of kpop groups, I think it's safe to say you are a Korea-addict.

Korea's Front man 

K-media reported on "Korea's Frontman" Jimin representing Korea as the face of the Korean tourism industry, by contributing to strengthen the local economy with his influence as a world-renowned artist

Jimin is drawing attention by being used to promote tourism in Busan & Seoul.

Front man is someone who represents something to general public who are not familiar with.
It's not a nickname that can be given by one's own company or old fans. It represents the impact of the individual to general public.
I want to visit Busan too. It's Korea's Front man Jimin's hometown.

korea boo’ 

Someone who denounced their own race and calls themselves Korean, genuinely believes that they’re Korean or wishes they were Korean. Do everything a korean does, eat types of food they like. They may also think that they will some day marry their favourite idol (see also delulu) or may use small parts of Korean in their sentences without caring about learning the language. They could think that all Asians/Koreans are beautiful gods who are above the human race and usually think there’s only chinese japanese and korean but there’s more than that (see also yellow fever).

Not someone who:

-is interested in Korean culture

-listens to Kpop music

-listens other Korean music genres

-watches Korean TV shows

-makes cringey jokes about Korean celebrities

-wants to live in Korea

ect...
friend 1: all she does is obsess over them and like them for what their race is
friend 2: ugh typical korea boo’
Common among foreigners working in Korea.

1. When you get in trouble for not doing or knowing something that no reasonable person would have expected you to know or do, due to you not having mind-reading abilities.

2. When someone tells you to do something, you do exactly what they said to do, and it's wrong. They will then deny having told you to do it and leave you to take the heat.

3. When your Korean boss hands you a brand new textbook you've never seen before, pushes you into a classroom full of new students, and says "You teach now!"

4. When you are expected to know exactly how to accomplish every task that anyone in your country has ever done, and be able to define every word in the English language i.e. "Hey, you're Canadian! Can you teach me how to snowshoe?" or "You speak English! What does anatidaephobia mean?"
Oh man, I totally got Korea'd today. I walked in to my classroom and there were 15 kids there expecting to learn about the reign of King Sejong! The textbook they gave me isn't even written in English!
