How can you say Wilshire isn't heavily Korean??? What kind of joke is this? I live right next to wilshire How is Wilshire in ktown all of a sudden not that Korean? I'm seriously confused. Some of the largest Korean companies are based in koreatown with a Wilshire address.
Where do you guys get your info from so ignorant. I already have high blood pressure.
that's only one corner in K-Town on wilshire. If you look around at just this intersection then it is obvious he is wrong. Look at the billboards and some of the signage on the buildings is in Korean. Look at the whole intersection.
But look at 6th it's a little more dense. You can basically walk from 6th to 8th through wilshire. It's prettty walkable. If you go foward it basically takes you to wilshire.

Hes a massive liar or he needs help..
he ssid i never asked who brought up the grove.
i asked him 4-5 times in the last 5 pages or so.
he names a post where tte grove is never mentioned.

8th is on the uglier side but still pretty dense and walkable.
I rarely walked on olympic because its not walkable like other parts if ktown. It just feels different.
I already admiitted its more car cemtric to the guy
de
That being said, once you go north from olympic on the residential sts, youre in some dense areas.
La's commercial streets dont always show how dense a neighbohood is anyway
Venice blvd in the palms neighborhod is an examplem
I am only posting Google streetview, so if something is "fabricated", then it's on Google.

You're right. I did choose Wilshire, because 1. You petulantly demanded we show Wilshire, after demanding something completely different and 2. You absolutely refused to specify where on Wilshire, claim there's "no time" in your busy schedule for a five-second Google search.
If you think others are "cherrypicking", you are welcome to correct us and point EXACTLY where we should look om Wilshire, but you won't do so, because no such place exists.
The la times has the northern boundary as beverly, olympic as south. Wilshire is koreatown.
other la formers have said the same thing, calling you on your lies and bs.
Wrong. The LA Times has no "neighborhood boundaries". They're a newspaper not a city agency.
And only ONE other LA forumer is parroting your same nonsense. Everyone else disagrees.
You both are obviously local homers who don't even know the city given, 1. You don't know where Koreatown is, 2. Don't know where the Grove is located, and 3. Can't identify anything along Wilshire.
OOlympic is not the Main Street it's ridiculous and not based in reality.
Per the actual LA Korean community, and the official Koreatown visitors site:
"Olympic Boulevard is considered the main street of Koreatown LA. This is where historically Koreans started the businesses that would form the core of the community."
"The first official “Koreatown” sign in L.A. was posted at Olympic & Vermont in August 1981."
Ohmigosh, a C-D forumer spouting nonsense and insults when caught making ridiculous lies. Who would have guessed?
