Why are Koreans so desperate to have ONLY Korean players? Anything from MMOs to MOBAs require VPNs and you get banned as soon as someone finds out you’re not Korean.
This is way deeper than a simple VPN related question, gaming is so big in korea that they have laws preventing anyone under 16 from playing any game after certain hours. They have laws that fine you ~$300 to $2000 for insulting people in video games. They have laws that forbid you from boosting another players account or you’re fined up to $18,000 and get a 2 year suspended prison sentence.
Also on a more personal level, you most likely don’t share the same mentality that the native Korean players have as far as desire to improve and win, so you’re not desired by them as a fellow player.

Add in the fact that asian gamers arent as allergic to invasive monetisation models as westerners are and it will quickly make sense why many korean f2p games are not welcoming westerners
I remember when Aion finally launched in North America in 2009. The server I played on also happened to be the server all the Korean exchange students in America gathered to play. Aion was HUGE in South Korea more than WOW at its peak in the States.
Aion in the begining was an absolute grind to max level taking months and months of daily play wasting 100’s of hours.
One month after launch Team Korea was at end game content and end game gear. All gear enhanced, to the max. Us Americans were so far behind one team of 50 ish people dominated that server for the next few years to we all caught up.
I realized then Koreans game on another level and I stood zero chance.
Lotta Asians are super casually racist.
Its the norm.
You can just use the service to bypass the blocking of online games GoLogin and enjoy the game.
Imagine getting 2 years for boosting someone else in a game.
Its like those esports players that would take turn playing 8 hour shifts on the same account to max prestige their cod accounts back in the day. I wonder if they still do that
