I honestly didn't care what my parents think of girls i dated. As I get older, I want someone who gets along with my friends and family.
If they dont accept her, that would be a problem for me.

Maybe we throw back some Soju we might ease the tension lol
if this is your plan, you REALLY REALLY need to ask around what all the korean drinking customs are. too many to mention quite frankly. i would NOT suggest you accept his offer if you dont know whats up ahead of time.

Korean drinking customs are a bit complicated even in an informal setting. It would be weird if the father would expect you to know them.
He would never be able to leave Korea.

But then, trysonCRX has a point. Don't offer to "throw back some soju" if you don't know the customs. Heheh.

Indian/Korean couples are uncommon. That it will be a consideration can't be helped. However, it doesn't necessarily mean the father will not approve.

Heheh. Ironically, my mom doesn't want me to marry a Korean girl and she loved my Japanese ex.

korean fathers are difficult to please regardless of your race, wealth, education etc...in my case, moms are hard to please too....

I advise you to get the blessing of both her parents before moving forward. If you don't, it will put a lot of stress on your relationship. In some cases, the parents may feel that she is putting you over them. Then you are really facked.
