how do I visit Korea without being perceived as a passport bro or a Korean version of a weeb

Other

안녕하세요

Hello everyone, I write this as I am concerned how I will be viewed in Korea when I visit. I am aware that there are a lot of westerners coming to east Asia to either fulfill their dream of Asian women, which I denounce and it’s completely shameful or to basically act like a Korean version of a weeb (not sure what the word for that would be). Again both seem shameful and ridiculous.

I myself have been learning Korean as I have had a new found interest in Korea a few months back as the result of the increased trade between Korea and my home country (Poland). This trade deal has caused a new found interest in Poland as a whole and me being a hobby linguist looking for an another language to learn got interested in Korean and Korea as a whole and I hope that one day I could visit however I’m aware that I may be perceived negatively due to other westerners and if so how could I avoid it.

I await your answers, thank you for your attentions

감사합니다.
