Calling Scottish Koreans

Apparently, “Scotch Koreans” don’t make “a wee bit of sense”, according to Starburst:

I would say it’s mildly annoying, but people are generally slightly surprised when I open my mouth and an English accent comes out. (or as someone once said, Ewan McGregor’s voice ?!). And I was surprised when I once bumped into a Chinese guy with a Danish accent.

Hrm…. what do you think?

I once knew a Chinese guy from Sweden, which was interesting. I think it's kind of like if you met a white guy with a Japanese accent--it's just surprising because it's not currently a usual thing. I don't think I'd ever bother to make it into a commercial though.
