You haven’t really experienced skiing until you’ve skied Bears Town, South Korea. I like to refer to it as “bumper car skiing.” Koreans that have never been on skis in their life go to the top of the mountain and commence to come down the hill with no idea of how to stop, turn, or avoid collisions. They do not use any peripheral vision, it’s more like tunnel vision. You spend most of your day avoiding a serious crash, skiing around clothing, poles, skiis, ipods, teeth, hair, and blood scattered all over the mountain. The most annoying thing is when you are waiting in the chairlift line and they stand right behind you, yep, right on top of your skis, no courtesy what so ever.
“no courtesy what so ever”
I have found that Chinese (presumably the same with Koreans) have courtesy for one another, but none for Westerners. Have you noticed that?
Personally, being in the US college system, which should probably be called the Chinese education system, I am astonished by the lack of manners of the Han people towards Westerners.
