Actually I can relate to that story. I was the only Korean kid ever to set foot in my old school in Canada, so I had little knowledge of English. So, I was bullied a lot then. The most annoying part of it was being called Chinese or Japanese... :(
soo true..im chinese too and was born and grew up in the uk. people keep asking where abouts in china im from and then they're gobsmacked when i say im from london -.- another time when i was in m&s, an old man randomly asked me where im from. i replied london. then he goes, "No. where are you from?" i say, london. then he goes,"no, where are your parents from?" i say hong kong. anybody else had this moment? when i say im from london then im from london. end of.
i'm a Taiwanese living in the u.s. i gotta say, i'm surprised how europeans are even more racially insensitive than americans towards asian people. i couldn't believe there were so many people who had come up to me and said "KONIGIWA" when i was in France. it was really annoying.
@how1116 aww i'm sorry to hear about that! i've never been to France so I dont know how they are like. Apparently they dont like English people haha but dunno if that is true XD
@chungj5 Londons great but some people can be abit u know lol oh well, do u speak any chinese at all? i always get judged for only speaking English even at uni with all the chinese students but i guess in the end they just wanted to improve their english aswell
@TheZetikon i would love to live in London for a bit :( but i just dont have the dough! yeah i can speak hakka and cantonese, infact I speak a bit of it in my latest video haha, oh chinese students, where they from? mainland china? i know all the foreign students ALWAYS want to improve their english -_- I wanna improve my cantonese lol
@watchdog2007 yahoo! I got my own personal guardian! i love it :D nah man its gotten better as i have grown up, still get people being racist but i cant change them lol hopefully they will watch these videos and realise that they are pretty ignorant ;)
@chungj5 hahahaa ur bigger than me buh i still be ur guardian! >:D errr.. i know.. ignorant people.. my least favorite kind of people.. its lilke wat the hell! its 2012! get with the program... its bad i still hear some racist comments and stuff.. i just smh. do u take it upon urself to educate?
@watchdog2007 haha someone has to do it! omg did u see that video on youtube a few weeks back where 7 kids bullied some chinese person?? i got so angry watching that :( and yay my guardian :P how you know im bigger than you haha
@chungj5 oh yeah sure did... the where they ganged up on one guy omg terrible terrible thing. haha u must be scary when ur mad >:D. wait u do know chinese right? everyone's bigger than me

Oh and the best thing is to respond like for like e.g. "HIYAHHHH" > "Awright, pukka man innit chippy! (in a chav accent). Respond to Chinese stereotypes with white ones e.g. Hitler salute, paedo
@chungj5@LeClassics tbf there is a big difference there between where its assumed you work/eat and assuming all white people are neo-nazis and paedophiles =/
@bekkiigrogie lol i dont think white people are neonazis, and peadophiles, you get them with whatever race...i can see where LeClassics is coming from but i wouldnt go that far for my comebacks
@dottie089 yeah that's the right attitude, different people (shock) get raised up differently, so racial jokes can be shrugged off as much as insult another. As for the ghetto thing, it is (mistakening or not) perceived as a black thing thus the connotation
