They dont have squat toilets in Korea tho. It's more of a chinese thing.
Really? The more you know. Thought it was a common asian theme from the countries I've visited then again South Korea is trying to be high tech these days in the same vein as Japan so I'm not surprised at it too.
Run is correct. My Chinese ex-gf used to sit like that all the time whereas I can't remember my Korean or Japanese ex-gfs ever sitting like that.

^And? Regardless 50% of the population living outside of Seuol is still a large number. Also not all of us go to Korea for pussy. If I'm going to Korea you can bet I'll be traveling outside of Seoul even if that's just me.
So my point stands it would be disingenuous to assume those aren't possibly there. If you didn't spend time outside of Seoul then you even have less of a claim. If you think Istanbul, Ankara, and the beaches are any way representative of Turkey even though they hold a significant portion of its population you are sorely mistaken.
Your problem seems to be that you think us guys would only dare to go there just for pussy or for a job. I can see now why you are disagreeing with Sourcecode on learning Korean.
Why learn a language if all you want is pussy and a job? Appreciating the culture and history is just as important in my opinion, and you aren't going to find that only in the big urban centers or at all by the beach.
It would be tantamount to saying New York and Los Angeles are representative of the entire United States and all of its population because the culture in those places are what's exported abroad.
I stayed in Daejon which is sorta inbetween Seoul and Busan last year and I don't remember any squat toilets there, even in the smallest cramped places. As for the other 50% outside Seoul, you need to be specific with WHO is in that DEMOGRAPHIC. The hotter, younger girls are NOT in that 50% demographic, they're in Seoul.
As for appreciating the culture, I think you're just not being honest with yourself. Yes, nothing wrong with learning about the history and culture but let's not pretend that hot sexy kpop looking gals aren't a big part of the equation. If that was the case, why aren't you learning about Indian history/Samoan history/etc (no offense against Indians or Samoans), just picking whatever random country. Unless you are Korean, I don't think you can play that card.

If I'm going to Korea, or any country for that matter, on my own dime I would have to have some understanding of the culture and a good understanding of the language.
That's just me so don't assume I travel for pussy only. Any country worth traveling too in my opinion I would have to appreciate.
And yes I would find more culture in a temple in the countryside than with my tongue down a girl's throat in the club.
I've only been to Korea twice but here's a little taste of this culture you want to study.
Old women (ajummas) will just blatantly cut in front of you on the regular. In some places, they don't flush toilet paper in the toilet. They just throw it in the trash because they don't want to clog the toilet. Taxi drivers will fuck you up. Not physically but more they'll drop you off in wrong locations. You will need to have a lot of patience. You might meet the coolest, hottest girl that you might even end up wanting to marry but guess what, her parents don't want her marrying a foreigner and her family and friends will give her shit, stressing her out, thus stressing you out. Yes, I might be a little jaded but just trying to put things in perspective. Why do I still plan on going back there? Because they make bomb ass kim bap and the girls are hot and sexy. Period
If you truly want culture, I'd actually recommend Japan moreso. At least people are polite and mind their own business (on the surface)
