I believe this is due to a little phenomenon called the "Korean Wave". Basically, Korean culture has gotten real popular in the last decade or two. My brother got caught up in it something fierce many years ago, and he's still bloody obsessed with it today. We have a big poster of the band "Girl's Generation" in our living room all thanks to him. He still has plans to learn Korean and move to Korea.
So yeah, it's basically just people who have gotten obsessed with Koreans and Korea in the same vein as Weeaboos.
Sweet Jesus Christ, Lord almighty. It sounds like Weeaboos, but even more Asian. Now, I'm fine with anime. Watched some myself, but I don't like Weeaboos because they've become obsessed. So now we have koreaboos. That's bad.
Thanks for informing me.
