    As a Korean, I can confirm that it is a common Korean proverb. “울다가 웃으면 엉덩이에 털난다“. Although I must confess that I haven’t thought of it in such philosophical, historical manner!

    As a Korean, I can confirm its an actual quote. When I was a kid if I cried after being disciplined by my dad. He would tell a joke right after to make me laugh and then hit me with that quote which would make me laugh even harder while still sobbing.

  • @monmothma3358
    @monmothma3358 6 місяців тому +12

    What George says is interesting. Crying is healthy release/processing, but what about laughter? You laugh when you're suprised, happy, but a lot of people might also laugh when they're nervous. I've noticed doing that myself, sometimes. So yeah, I think it can be release, but not of pain, more of nervous energy.

    I believe it's about having mood swing. One minute you cry and the next you are laughing. It's like teasing gently about swinging mood specially you are a kid as if they are changing mind all the time. I am born and bred Korean btw, now aware of anything to do with war...

    To *actually* give more thought to that "saying" - and, *trying* to give it some, 'context' - a melodramatic series could evolve out of it - *but* "They laugh and cry at the same time!" that's why...- let's keep Graham Norton's level-headed agreeableness!

    Its a saying. Its like how comedian Bobby Lee tells the story of how his mom was walking with her 5 year old sister to school after the Korean War and realized that she forgot something at home so she told her 5 year old sister to wait and she'll run home and be right back. When she ran home and came back her 5 year old sister was was dead and in pieces on the road bc she had been hit and run over by a US miltary jeep that used to tear around Korea back then. So she went home got her parents who came and had to pick up pieces of their daughter. Out of that trauma you somehow have the their sons who are f'ed up but hilarious.
