Eh, Asian racial fetishism isn’t just a western male thing. While Asian themselves Indonesian and Filipino men go insane over Japanese and Korean women. Like unreasonably insane. Asian fetishes are also growing among African Americans I hear (not confirmed).
Honestly I get the feeling that a lot of it has to do with the Yellow Peril in the early 20th century. Racists just went from being terrified of the mental images they invented about Asian people to fetishizing them.

When I studied abroad in Korea and hoped to find a girlfriend, none of the local women would date me because the men were jealous and probably told them I was a weird foreigner.

More in line with the thread, yes, I am a bit jealous, I will not lie. Even the socialist Asian societies seem to be doing well against all odds (i.e. their own ideology) while capitalist ones are literally more developed than most European countries.
I am bitter because I am seeing Europe go up in flames due to "diversity" while Asian countries don't face the same fifth columnism and betrayal.

Not to be overtly rude, but this just betrays a total lack of knowledge about Asian countries. They're extremely diverse and filled with different ethnic groups. There's tons of ethnic tensions in Myanmar, China, Thailand, Sri Lanka, etc. and outright armed rebellions in some places such as the Karen National Liberation Army and southern Thailand.

I'm jealous of Korean and Japan which are homogenous and successful countries that have managed to advanced beyond the living standards of the west in fifty years. I don't care about those other countries.

Successful countries with the highest suicide rates in the world, you mean. South Korea and Japan sacrificed dearly for economic growth.

So instead of Asia, you mean an extremely small part of East Asia.
Neither Japan nor Korea are homogeneous societies and have been mixed since the beginning of those state formations, they also face monumental problems such as an abysmal birth rate, human trafficking, and corrupt stagnant governments which aren't going anywhere any time soon. Both also received large parts of their culture from other countries, ironically the ones you don't care about.

Actually, that's pretty demonstrably not true. As of 2016 South Korea was 11th and Japan was 30th. Interestingly, Russia was 1st, followed by Lithuania
As you were saying?

https://apps.who.int/gho/data/node.sdg. ... -2?lang=en According to this chart, South Korea ranks 4th while Japan is 14th. Not highest, but demonstrably high. Anything else?

Yes. They're not necessarily paradises (and have lots of problems) but they are arguably good countries. Their suicide rates have been vastly overstated by media, their working hours are long (I worked there for a bit too, it's a bit rough but manageable) and their people are homogenous and properly traditional. They don't have dirty streets or abundance of hoodlums, and their economies drive global innovation with the most patents per capita AND advanced industries. The only issue is their demographic decline but I'd honestly take that over the mass immigration in Europe and the USA.
Tell me what exactly Europe has over these countries? Europe needs to follow suit.
