What races do you think exist?

>> Homo sapiens sapiens is the only species of human on Earth. Commonly speaking blacks, whites, and yellows are just an inaccurate classification for which no clear criteria apply. Some of the species that claim to be a 'single nation' also have the same roots as other peoples.

Is Korea becoming multiethnic? Why?

>> Korea can not be said to be a multi-ethnic society. Of course, there are foreign residents of various nationalities in Korea at present. But it is difficult to assert that they live like ordinary Koreans. The policies for them are ridiculously inadequate and we can not be sure that they will remain in Korea until the end if the economic situation changes.

How are foreigners treated in Korea?

>> The awareness of foreigners has changed a lot but the racist idea is still prevalent in Korean society. The favorable reaction to white, the fear and curiosity of black people, and the contempt of foreigners from Southeast Asia or the Middle East. Some people do not even think that words like "niggers", which are commonly used, can be offensive to foreigners.
