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.

People who think they're Korean, adore Koreans, think that Koreans are the handsomest people in the world while the actual Koreans don't give a shit about them
Koreaboos: I really sarang Oppa and I want to be his girlfriend. Aiiich >< what do I do?! He doesn't speak to me and probably never will. I really hope Oppa will sarang me back, because as soon as he sees me he will fall for me because I look so different.. And we'll get married and have children... Oppa, sarange me please!! Oppa Jimin, I beg you to sarang me..

Jimin: Don't get your hopes up, you nasty

2. Hey, you heard that kid Kailyn from our school? she’s filipino-chinese but wants to be korean, she inhabits these phycotic koreaboo behaviours:
-wears those circle glasses to look “korean”
-does poses like Taehyung from BTS like poking her finger into her cheeks.
-always adds #asian #cuteasian #cuteasiangirl #korean in her pictures as if she just realized she’s 1% korean.
-always adds korean phrases on her sentence.
-“I hOpE oPpa tAETaE lOVes mE”
-wears k-style makeup.
3. Oli London wants to be Jimin so bad. Doing plastic surgery aint gonna fix you honey and its also called koreboo.

Like a weeaboo (someone obsessed with Japan, see wapanese), but with Korea, as Korea will soon be the new Japan, with it's K-Pop (like Rain aka Bi), K-Dramas (korean Dramas) manhwa (Korean manga) and awesomeness. Cue the fanboys/girls.
Wow, Shaniqua is really into K-Pop. She's kind of a koreaboo; she's even started to learn Korean from all the K-dramas she watches.
