Consider Taiwan, for the cleaner China experience

that's actually really nice

2017-11-11 23:01:03 UTC  

if i get a visa and a lot of money i will go there

2017-11-11 23:01:14 UTC  

what's your home country?

2017-11-11 23:01:27 UTC  

Taiwan is visa free for most of the world

2017-11-11 23:02:32 UTC  

They are very liberal. I can stay permanently without any further permit by just extending my tourist stamp by flying out and in every 90 days. Not many countries are so liberal to allow this

2017-11-11 23:02:53 UTC  

Poland

2017-11-11 23:03:02 UTC  

if i get lucky i may get korean citizenship in 5 years

2017-11-11 23:03:34 UTC  

AFAIK the whole EU is visa free to Taiwan

2017-11-11 23:03:56 UTC  

oh shiiii-

2017-11-11 23:04:06 UTC  

it's still a lot of money involved, but i got the basics covered

2017-11-11 23:05:33 UTC  

two months of Taiwan with my gf were about 7000$ but we stayed in hotels most of the time and we took a few flights to islands nearby

2017-11-11 23:07:04 UTC  

that's

2017-11-11 23:07:05 UTC  

are you living in Korea or how are you hoping for citizenship?

2017-11-11 23:07:10 UTC  

that's more than my entire life savings

2017-11-11 23:07:30 UTC  

i used to live there, got an ldr with a qt korean grill

2017-11-11 23:07:47 UTC  

how would that grant you citizenship?

2017-11-11 23:08:09 UTC  

I thought they don't grant citizenship through marriage

2017-11-11 23:09:47 UTC  

after 2 years

2017-11-11 23:09:52 UTC  

and if naturalized

2017-11-11 23:10:15 UTC  

at least I know a Swiss guy who's been living in Korea for 27 years now with his Korean wife and his application for citizenship was always denied

2017-11-11 23:10:25 UTC  

ah

2017-11-11 23:10:33 UTC  

that's practice

2017-11-11 23:10:36 UTC  

i only know theory

2017-11-11 23:10:38 UTC  

that sucks tho

2017-11-11 23:10:46 UTC  

if swiss were denied, what about the poor poor slavs

2017-11-11 23:11:44 UTC  

from what I heard, you have to look like one to be considered part of the society

2017-11-11 23:12:11 UTC  

Taiwan is even worse: there's no citizenship for spouses, end of story

2017-11-11 23:12:34 UTC  

it may be not worse

2017-11-11 23:12:36 UTC  

if there's no hope

2017-11-11 23:47:14 UTC  

Korea seems like a poor man's Japan

2017-11-11 23:47:22 UTC  

How far off am I <:thenk:329322130804047872>

2017-11-11 23:47:36 UTC  

quite far

2017-11-11 23:47:44 UTC  

because the poor japanese have a sense of pride and honor

2017-11-11 23:47:58 UTC  

that's something even the highest class koreans don't have

2017-11-11 23:48:45 UTC  

At least they have the work culture and jumping off of tower blocks culture in common <:hyperthonk:327934332545007617>

2017-11-11 23:49:01 UTC  

koreans don't jump off tower blocks

2017-11-11 23:49:03 UTC  

only bridges

2017-11-11 23:49:16 UTC  

because if you jump from a building you will probably land on a pile of trash and survive

2017-11-12 01:43:57 UTC  

Culturally and economically poor

2017-11-12 01:44:32 UTC  

Wonder if the chinks are ever going to measure up
