I live in Thailand, and "loser men" from Korea are still losers even in Thailand or Southeast Asia
I live in Thailand, and I occasionally—or rather, frequently—see posts on Bullpen comparing the cost of living or the poor in Thailand to Korea.
There are people who think that if they live a life in Korea with a basic salary level, they will become middle class once they move to Thailand or Southeast Asia.
They keep posting these things to justify themselves, trying to boost their self-esteem by looking down on people in developing countries because they are "losers" in Korea lol.
Based on the countless Koreans I've encountered while coming and going for the past 10 years,
to put it bluntly, a "loser man" from Korea is still a loser even in Southeast Asian countries that people look down on.
It's not like they're going to some remote, impoverished rural village to play "boss" to the local monkeys (if that's the goal, I don't even understand why they'd bother going for FIRE anyway).
To be blunt, they probably go because they want to be recognized more than in Korea (whether by women or otherwise) and live like a human being,
but I've seen truckloads of guys who went there, realized life didn't go as planned, and ended up returning to Korea to do manual labor.
Honestly, people living "off the grid" or illegally often endure better and live more luxuriously.
These "loser men" are under the illusion that thanks to Korea's national status, if they have an average office worker's salary, they can go to Southeast Asia and live like kings.
Those of you on Bullpen who have lived abroad (especially in Southeast Asia) will know that this is absolutely not the case lol.
Taking Bangkok as an example, even in the outskirts, a 2-bedroom house costs about 200 million KRW, and a decent place to live is not something you can just dismiss, whether renting or buying.
For a newly built condo in Bangkok, even a 1.5 or 2-bedroom unit is priced between 400 to 700 million KRW these days (which isn't even cheap compared to provincial cities in Korea).
Monthly rents are also rising day by day (based on decent housing with good neighbors, community facilities, and security).
Once you actually live there, the difficulty level is surprisingly harder than living in Korea (considering what the local people earn).
Some "loser men" think they can just come to Southeast Asia and live an easy life, picking up women with a bit of pocket change (I was like that 10 years ago too lol),
but it's not as easy as you think.
So, if you want to be recognized as a "cool Korean man" even in a place like Southeast Asia, you have to come while you are still young and have good looks.
That way, you won't have to rely on "crushing" people with money like the old guys; you can be well-liked wherever you go, pick up plenty of women, and be treated well.
Anyway, it's funny to see people who haven't even lived there talking based on their imaginations, YouTube, or community nonsense lol.
I'm not talking about most people on Bullpen, just specific "losers," so don't get triggered.
