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.

Koreaboo

a person with a CHRONIC ADDICTION to South Korea and they talk non-stop about Korea but not about its culture but about "hot" Korean guys, kpop and kdramas. They have a distorted perception of what it really means to love Korea. Sometimes they even mix english with korean in EVERY SENTENCE THEY USE.

IMPORTANT!

If you are not a koreaboo and you like these things I have no problem with that, I just find it creepy and annoying that people idealize Korea but not because of its culture, its people or its language. Korea is more than just kpop and kdramas.
Ann: annyeonghaseyo, everyone. Have y'all seen my oppa Jungkook? he's hotter than ever. I want to change my name to hyerin and travel to Korea to find a hot Korean CEO or idol to marry. What you think, unnie? (does aegyo*)

Katie: "Ew, you're such a Koreaboo."
