About dog meat you should've said the bill passed to make it completely banned & illegal by 2027. It's only old people eating dog because of old habit from the time of war when they had to choose to starv or eat... Most Koreans never tried dog!
This isnt even remotely true. In the Buyeong Market there are a couple places you can buy dog meat. In fact there are quite a few restaurants scattered around Bupyeong and Bucheon that serve it. And get some education, its not a dog you can keep as a pet. Its not that kind of dog. Your comment is like the idiots that say Chinese eat cat. They eat Cvit. It looks like a cat but it is not.
that it's only old people eating it. That it's an old habit. The war ended in 1953. Assuming someone was even 10 years old then, they'd be in their 80s now. There are definitely some younger generations who enjoy it@@NamChin846
Still the dog breeders say it is part of the culture and should be protected. And they threatened to release 2 million dogs in Seoul, in protest of the law. Don't know if they were exaggerating, but if the number is correct, then that means there are a lot of people who eat dog in Korea. Apparently there were 200 dog breeders at the protest. Which also doesn't seem like a small amount, considering many might have been to ashamed to show their face, as they should be IMO.
when i visited Seoul in October of last year, I've talked to many many people, and only a few were able to understand and reply in English. my Korean is really flimsy still, but it was nevertheless a bigger help than English! i understand the struggle of speaking English though, as it is too not my native language :) Koreans working at cafes and shops definitely knew basic phrases and used them with ease, but when I tried to ask the receptionist at the hotel for a second blanket, I had to switch to Korean, which was stressful because at that time I barely had any real life experience in Korean and my vocab was too very small! (Still, I've gotten my second blanket) I think because of the fact that many Korean people struggle with English they are VERY patient with a foreigner attempting to speak Korean, which was a very pleasurable surprise! Thank you for the video
Do you think it is worth getting a private tutor? I plan to volunteer in Korea in 2026, but have almost no experience with reading or speaking. I don't even know how to write or speak the alphabet. I know there are free lessons on youtube but I find it difficult to stay honest and regular with my studies. I am curious what you found most helpful in learning the language. Can you help me decide?
@@Rascilon25 In my case it was 100% worth it because I struggle with consistency but having a tutor really keeps you accountable. Also I think if your native language is really different from Korean, you may really struggle with some things in the language. Tutors also offer personal approach and for me it's really valuable. Although it's definitely not a cheap way to learn a language :) but i still think it's worth the investment, especially if you plan to live there for quite some time.
I think for most of these things when people ask "Why do Korean men wear makeup?" or "Why do Koreans eat dogs?" it's not that they think all Koreans do it, or even a majority, but they are asking about things that don't even exist in their culture at all. For example, in many countries a man wearing cosmetic products might be a target of homophobic attack, so it's simply unthinkable for people from those kinds of cultures. Even American male actors, where same sex marriage is legalized, despite always wearing makeup in movies and tv series wear it so it's not obvious to the untrained eye. And there's a lot more homophobic countries than the U.S. I think that's the case with almost all of these 10 points.
Aegyo is litteraly used in every single language I’ve ever learned. Like when you wanna ask something you know will annoy them, do you say it while pouting a little or making doe eyes …. English, French, Swedish, Japanese. Everyone does it
Agree, there are also languages that have suffixes to turn a noun in a more cute-ish/small/affectionate (depends on context) noun like german or greek. Ex. German, suffix:-chen Die Schachtel - Das Schächtelchen A box - a small box Greek: -ακι (-aki) Το κουνέλι (to kouneli) - το κουνελάκι (to kounelaki) A bunny- a small bunny The usages may not be the same as koreans use aegyo but i still think its similar
No, not in German. The suffixes are a completly different thing. If you'd put a suffix on every word and try to act cute and show your husband a finger heart, he'll say : "What? Do you need money or to you want to squish me?" Believe me... I tried...
@@farbenrausch keyword: similar, not the same. Außerdem spreche ich fließend deutsch. Hier gehts eher um die Verniedlichung von Sprache generell, nicht um das Verhalten von Niedlichkeit
@farbenrausch in italian we don't use suffixes that much, we use it a lot when talking to strangers. If you act cute like with a higher voice and making like a heart with hands, it'll look like you want to achieve something or you'll just look weird lol
My Korean practice partner is an English teacher in Korea, and she too says that the focus is grammar and reading, but not speaking.. so Koreans tend to be shy when speaking English as they do not practice it often. She also says that foreigners are less self conscious and will often speak a foreign language even if they’re not perfect, while Koreans are more self conscious, so it could also be a cultural difference?
Your videos are very informative and a good listening exercise. Would it be possible to add the transcription of your 이야기들 in the description boxes? It would help with improving in vocabulary, grammar and reading skills.
If you click the "show transcription" button (in description), it comes up in a box near the screen. You can choose English or Korean from the CC. On the transcript you can select toggle timestamps (from the 3 dots menu) to remove those. Then select all of the text and copy/paste to your own document. ☺
I wanted to add my personal perspective to a few of these if it’s ok. I’ve studied Korean for 6 years and lived in Korea for 1 year, in my 2nd now. 1) Spicy Food It’s my personal opinion that this stereotype is perpetuated because Koreans are quite proud of their ability to eat spicy food. 😅 Many Korean people I’ve met throughout the years have noted that Koreans eat spicy food well, while Americans do not, which I must say, as an American, I’m not sure this is entirely true. Also, among new Korean friends, there have been times when I’ve reached for what is thought of as a stereotypically spicy dish, and I’ve been met with surprised remarks, gasps, etc. Actually, with respect, I’ve never heard any westerner say they think that all Korean food is spicy, but I DO know Korean people who are shocked when westerners can eat spicy food, which indicates a stereotype about westerners. 😅 2) Luxury items I’ve seen tons in Gangnam-head to areas like 잠실, 대치, 압구정, etc., and you’ll see where that luxury item statistic is coming from. At the Gangnam hagwon I work at, even the children wear luxury items (then just throw them on the ground because they’re kids and that’s what they do). 3) Koreans’ English Proficiency Koreans tend to speak English quite well in Seoul, and especially in education hotspots in Gangnam. From what I’ve heard and ever so slightly experienced, this changes as you go out into the country. It also changes based on the age demographic you are speaking to. Note: I don’t think it should really matter how good their English is though! If you go to Korea, please endeavor to use as much Korean as possible! IMO, It’s a rich language that needs to be learned and valued worldwide so it won’t ever be lost to English. 4) Aegyo Many of the stereotypes surrounding aegyo do come from Kpop, but I do also think that the occasional rising and falling intonation at the end of Korean sentences, to the native English speaking ear, can sound unintentionally “cute.” That’s because rising and falling intonations denote whining in English, and whining is typically associated with children (PLEASE REMEMBER I LOVE KOREAN WHEN I SAY THAT). For example, the children I work with at my hagwon are already quite fluent in English, but for some of them, one of the last things “to go” is their intonation. I have a little bug in my class who does a little up and down tone at near the end of every phrase sometimes, and it is beyond adorable. I’ve heard adults do this sort of thing as well, and even in Korean, it can definitely sound like someone is being intentionally cute or playfully whiny if an English speaker isn’t used to it. I wanted to write this because I’d actually never heard some of these stereotypes among people I know.
Right? It is sometimes a bit annoying that most expect no one in the Western hemisphere can eat spicy food, even though it varies from country to country and person to person. And in foreign restaurants there is rarely spicy food, for example Indian, Thai and Mexican. Even though all three of these countries probably eat spicier on average than in Korea.
I also felt a bit strange when I watched UA-cam videos and saw comments asking if Korea uses a lot of makeup. At first, I wondered why foreigners thought that way. I later found out that in other countries, using only skin care products is considered makeup. Things like skin lotion, toner, skin cream, body lotion. If we define the scope of makeup to that extent, Korean men, even from their father's generation, use skin care products. Regardless of age or gender, Koreans use a lot of skin care products. In Korea, when you put on color makeup, it is considered makeup. Men also have eyebrow tattoos, so I thought it would be natural for foreigners to think that Korea wears a lot of makeup. In particular, there are a lot of men who use mask packs. . And no one thinks it's strange. But I met some friends on a trip and they thought it was strange when I gave them a mask pack as a gift. They thought I was gay. In foreign countries, it seems like they think that's gay. It seems that young men these days even use foundation products to some extent. It's just enough to cover up blemishes. Although the number is not large, I feel that the number of such people is increasing.
그 화장의 범위가 로션 스킨이 포함 된 조사라면? 5~60%는 화장을 한다고 볼수도 있을 것 같아요. 그러나 한국에서 쌍커플 수술이 시술로 통용되고 수술은 아니라는 인식이 있는 것처럼 로션스킨도 화장을 한다 라는 인식에서는 벗어나 피부 보습을 위해 샤워나 세안 후 당연히 하는 행위로 간주되기 때문에 물어보면 화장을 안한다고 말하는 것 같네요.

I'm very active in the TTMIK discord. We have several native speakers. One in particular is amazing for his ability to explain the Korean language to learners. His English is fabulous although I admit I haven't heard him actually speak. I have no doubt he speaks well.
when i lived in korea for over 2 years i was NOT prepared for exactly how spicy the spicy food would be! edit: also i ironically learned about luxury goods while i was there! i didnt know many brands until i lived in korea. even now it's hard for me to refer to luxury brands without using the word 명품 as i learned of the concept while i was there! haha once my friend bought me a prada hat as a gift while i was in korea! and i was so floored and thankful but i didn't want to tell her that unlike in korea where many of the people you see on the streets are dressed casually in luxury wear, you cannot do that in the US or you become a target 😂
Wow! Finally some reassurance. its been a topic I've been waiting for, thanks!!❤❤ I was wondering if on the next video you could talk about religious beliefs, I'm really curious
화장의 범위가 어디까지인지를 먼저 규정을 하시고 말씀을 해주셔야 되지 않을까요? 선크림이나 비비크림을 바르는 것도 화장의 범주에 들어가는지 등등...실제 메이크업이라고 하는 화장을 하는 남자는 연예인 빼고는 거의 없죠...그리고 '연령층이 높으신 분들'이라는 표현은 잘못된거 같습니다. '연령이 높으신 분들 혹은 장년층, 노년층 아님 노인'이라고 표현하는게 더 정확한 표현같습니다.
Some of these I don’t think I’ve ever really thought about, before-like the war and dog meat. The makeup bit I don’t think I know clearly, but what about skincare? I’ve heard that a lot of Korean men take really good care of their skin, just as much as women do. Thank you for this video! It’s good to have clarification on these things.
Korean men use a lot of skin care products. In Korea, makeup refers to color makeup. Skin care products are universal regardless of gender or age. In fact, Korea's men's beauty market is huge. Statistically, it is the largest in the world. Most of them are skin care products. But in foreign countries, it seems like this is also seen as makeup. I'm a guy and I met some friends on a trip and they thought it was strange when I gave them a mask pack as a gift. They thought I was gay. so funny
@@skyshin39 Thank you! I know I don’t think of it as make up, at least, but I know that outside of Korea, skin care is usually thought of as something only women do. Oh no! I hope your friends understand now that skin care among men in Korea is normal!
I didn't have any of these misconceptions (I love Korean culture and language but am not really into kpop honestly.) But it was very enlightening to learn about how Korea and Koreans have been misconceived and fantasized. Thanks for the video!

Well done! thank you so much for this video. Would it be possible for you to make a video about feminism and emancipation in Korea? I would be really interested in that.😚😚
I can definitely relate to Koreans being flustered when they are suddenly addressed in English. For me, it is French. Even though I can understand it pretty well, it's hard to come up with the words on the spot so whenever someone talks to me in French, I must appear either stupid or arrogant for not replying immediately, or not in French ^^o In Korea, I had the feeling that people in cities, esp. younger people, speak English quite well (and they probably expect it more), but in the countryside it was difficult. So my little bit of Korean helped and both sides tended to talk some EN-KR gibberish but it worked xD Everyone I talked to was quite lovely about it. The most funny to me was that a few Koreans didn't expect me to speak Korean at all so they didn't understand my Korean questions as they expected some English words - at least that's what I think because when I tried again in English, it worked. I'd be humble and say that it might have been my pronunciation,but since that was what my Korean teacher praised most, I don't really think so ;)
대부분의 상황에서 모든을 붙이면 다 진실이 아니게 됩니다. 모든 것이 그럴 수는 없는 법이죠. 하지만 대체적이란 말을 쓰면 맞는 경우가 많음. 다들 아시는 것 처럼 한국음식 매운음식이 정말 많고 대체적으로 매운 음식 좋아하시는 분이 많잖아요 월등하게 다른 나라에 비해서 그럼 맞는거죠 저부터도 그렇고 주변 사람들도 다 매운 음식 잘 먹고 좋아함 물론 아닌 사람도 있는데 그런 사람은 소수죠.
I do enjoy a couple of trot music myself having watched daily drama from KBS and MBC 🫣🫣 Ballad is my most favourite though, especially those by Davichi!
Sometimes, when I try to order spicy food and they see my pale face, they disrespect me lol. I can handle *spice* thanks to a Sri Lankan friend growing up and just a general love of all the food you can get in California. I've been told I can't order things and I've even had the spice toned down without my consent before. It doesn't really bother me, but it is funny. Edit: I also feel that re:English, city matters. Seoul/Gyeonggi has a much higher concentration of good English speakers and more international exchange in general. I had to learn Korean pretty quickly because my first city had very few people outside of my literal coworker English teachers.
It would be the same with other countries. There will be those misunderstandings, misconceptions, ignorance about the culture and people. Some people, they visit a country once, as a tourist, and they think they know everything about that country. In the UK, I've lived in here since 1993 and I notice many immigrants who don't like to mingle or are uncomfortable with the other ethnicity in this country especially so the English, the Welsh or the Scots. Then I hear them talk some uncomfortable things yet they don't really know. Mingle, get to know people, be nice, know their history, we are just the same people after all with our own hearts and minds.
I saw more male idols being asked to be Aegyo and that’s a bit weird for me as an European, even the men were in the late 20 and 30 ies…. And here the make up of men have been discussed around 10 years ago, but yes only a low percentage wears it. The spicy food fairytale comes from ramyeon and using Gojuchang often but Ji-min from BTS showed us often, that he can’t stand food which is too spicy 🥵
I thought you would have mentioned that dog food was more popular when people were poor after the war. That's why some of the older generation still eat it. Am I right?
개고기를 설명한 부분이 너무 아쉽네요. 홍대에서 찾아봤다라거나 학교급식, 회사식당에 안나온다 이런거는 무리한 설정입니다. 한국인으로서 말씀드리면 한국인들 99.99%는 개고기를 먹지 않습니다. 아주 나이 많은 소수의 어르신분들 중에 드시는 분이 있습니다. 그리고 판매하는 식당도 한국에 일부지역에 극소수로 모여있었는데 그마저 법으로 없어졌습니다. 그리고 대부분 한국인은 개고기를 먹지 않기 때문에 외국인이 말하지 않는 이상 개고기라는 주제로 대화할일이 일상에서 없습니다.
I live in Korea and every time I ask for something to be made a little less spicy, it's still too spicy for me. LOL And I used to think I could handle spicy food. I guess I can just handle American spicy food. 😅
Although eating dog isn't common in Korea, especially in Seoul, the Agriculture ministry estimated in 2022 that there are 1,600 dog meat restaurants. There are over 1,100 dog farms breeding over 570,000 dogs to be eaten. The Korean Association of Edible Dogs commented on the recent incoming BAN on dog meat, saying it would actually affect 3,500 famrs, raising 1.5 million dogs for 3,000 restaurants. So, whichever statistic you want to believe, it's still a lot. Though the ban will be coming in soon and they'll all have to do something else. Aegyo is everywhere, even my wife does it. I find that Korean people act like this due to the influence of dramas and the numerous reality TV shows. Korean humour and comedy is still very slaptstick and reliant on physicality and facial expression in comparison with western humour. You can especially see this overacting when they are surprised, or amazed at something.
A restaurant that sells dog meat is called Bosintang Restaurant. Of course, there are restaurants exclusively for dog meat, but on the contrary, there are many restaurants that sell a variety of foods. Not all of the restaurants you suggested are for dog meat. And now, most of the people in their 40s and younger in Korea have never eaten dog meat, and the main consumers of dog meat are those in their 60s and older who have lived a rough life. The dog meat culture in Korea, known in the West, is very exaggerated, and there is a small number of dog meat consumers in the entire population. There will be no dog meat consumption in the future due to the revision of the law, but even without it, it is a culture that will naturally survive because young people rarely consume dog meat. Rather, China consumes more dog meat than Korea, as there is a dog meat festival. And there are almost all dog meat consumers in most of Asia. It's really questionable why Korea has become synonymous with a dog meat eating country.

If possible, I'd like to understand something: I've noticed in Kdramas that women are very frequently infantilized in the stories, with their reactions, and behaviors, especially towards men. Is this accurate in real life, are women usually like this? I highly doubt this is the case in real life, but I find it curious this constant infantilized expression in Kdramas.
It's actually a hot topic among younger generations in Korea. The aegyo thing was considered 'cute' and 'pure' back until 2010s I would say, but now many Koreans consider aegyo as a mental illness😂so cringe and weird tbh...some couples behave like that for sure but drama is a drama!
@@mjmj734 I know that drama is a drama. My question is about why are women portrayed like that in dramas. There must be a reason, a cultural one at least. I notice this quite a lot in the east, while in the west it’s the opposite.
@@tati79ana Well there must be a lot of reasons behind it but in my opinion, the typical features of traditional Korean women are like...weak, submissive, devoted, doll-like, innocent, someone who should be looked after by men(father, older brother, husband etc.). And East Asian countries are still conservative in general compared to western countries. The interesting thing is that Korean dramas featuring such women are popular overseas. Mostly fantasy rom-coms. There are many Korean dramas with various genres, plots and characters but those are not a jam to K-Drama fans. Many Korean dramas have become a means of solidifying stereotypes for sure. It's like portraying dumb blonde women, smart or nerdy asians, drug dealer Mexicans and Russian spies in American movies.
@user-d1fics82ie8 Look at her videos she literally exists to hate Korea. She's obsessed with it bc she uses it to satiate her victim complex like a lot of young foreigners do.
I was waiting for the following in this video: 1) Koreans being obsessed with plastic surgery 2) Korean kids spend so many hours a day studying. After school, they go to tutors to study English or music, etc. 3) Koreans are racist. However, some races or people tend to be racist. I have seen so many articles about Koreans being racist. It was not discussed. I would like to know what you think about that.
1) Most men don’t do this. However, it can be easily found in occupations such as celebrities and SNS uploaders. In the case of women, many people, including the general public, have undergone plastic surgery. 2) You are right. 3) There is racial discrimination. The global standard considers racism against blacks, Latinos, and Asians, but in Korea, racism against Southeast Asians is severe.
The countries that claim Korea to be racist are also super racist...like Philippines I want to know why Asian elderly people are randomly attacked in America?

Agree, there are also languages that have suffixes to turn a noun in a more cute-ish/small/affectionate (depends on context) noun like german or greek.
Ex. German, suffix:-chen
Die Schachtel - Das Schächtelchen
A box - a small box
Greek: -ακι (-aki)
Το κουνέλι (to kouneli) - το κουνελάκι (to kounelaki)

她的韩语口齿清楚。我不看字幕也听得懂。
My Korean practice partner is an English teacher in Korea, and she too says that the focus is grammar and reading, but not speaking.. so Koreans tend to be shy when speaking English as they do not practice it often. She also says that foreigners are less self conscious and will often speak a foreign language even if they’re not perfect, while Koreans are more self conscious, so it could also be a cultural difference?
그런듯...
Your videos are very informative and a good listening exercise. Would it be possible to add the transcription of your 이야기들 in the description boxes? It would help with improving in vocabulary, grammar and reading skills.
If you click the "show transcription" button (in description), it comes up in a box near the screen. You can choose English or Korean from the CC. On the transcript you can select toggle timestamps (from the 3 dots menu) to remove those. Then select all of the text and copy/paste to your own document. ☺

11:40 한국 남자 화장 오해는 스킨 로션 썬크림 등의 기초 화장이 통계에 잡혀서 그런거임. 우리는 그게 화장이라고 생각하지 않지만 외국에서 볼땐 입술 트지 말라고 남자들이 립글로스 바르는것도 화장으로 들어감. 다른 나라에서는 화장품 가게 가야만 살 수 있는것들이니까
I wanted to add my personal perspective to a few of these if it’s ok. I’ve studied Korean for 6 years and lived in Korea for 1 year, in my 2nd now.
1) Spicy Food
It’s my personal opinion that this stereotype is perpetuated because Koreans are quite proud of their ability to eat spicy food. 😅 Many Korean people I’ve met throughout the years have noted that Koreans eat spicy food well, while Americans do not, which I must say, as an American, I’m not sure this is entirely true. Also, among new Korean friends, there have been times when I’ve reached for what is thought of as a stereotypically spicy dish, and I’ve been met with surprised remarks, gasps, etc.
Actually, with respect, I’ve never heard any westerner say they think that all Korean food is spicy, but I DO know Korean people who are shocked when westerners can eat spicy food, which indicates a stereotype about westerners. 😅
2) Luxury items
I’ve seen tons in Gangnam-head to areas like 잠실, 대치, 압구정, etc., and you’ll see where that luxury item statistic is coming from. At the Gangnam hagwon I work at, even the children wear luxury items (then just throw them on the ground because they’re kids and that’s what they do).
3) Koreans’ English Proficiency
Koreans tend to speak English quite well in Seoul, and especially in education hotspots in Gangnam. From what I’ve heard and ever so slightly experienced, this changes as you go out into the country. It also changes based on the age demographic you are speaking to.
Note: I don’t think it should really matter how good their English is though! If you go to Korea, please endeavor to use as much Korean as possible! IMO, It’s a rich language that needs to be learned and valued worldwide so it won’t ever be lost to English.
4) Aegyo
Many of the stereotypes surrounding aegyo do come from Kpop, but I do also think that the occasional rising and falling intonation at the end of Korean sentences, to the native English speaking ear, can sound unintentionally “cute.” That’s because rising and falling intonations denote whining in English, and whining is typically associated with children (PLEASE REMEMBER I LOVE KOREAN WHEN I SAY THAT).
For example, the children I work with at my hagwon are already quite fluent in English, but for some of them, one of the last things “to go” is their intonation. I have a little bug in my class who does a little up and down tone at near the end of every phrase sometimes, and it is beyond adorable. I’ve heard adults do this sort of thing as well, and even in Korean, it can definitely sound like someone is being intentionally cute or playfully whiny if an English speaker isn’t used to it.
I wanted to write this because I’d actually never heard some of these stereotypes among people I know.
Right?
It is sometimes a bit annoying that most expect no one in the Western hemisphere can eat spicy food, even though it varies from country to country and person to person.
And in foreign restaurants there is rarely spicy food, for example Indian, Thai and Mexican.
Even though all three of these countries probably eat spicier on average than in Korea.
Can't wait for the book!
I;m so proud of myself for being able to understand this whole video without english subs.... also while watching from a pc방 hahah
I also felt a bit strange when I watched UA-cam videos and saw comments asking if Korea uses a lot of makeup.
At first, I wondered why foreigners thought that way. I later found out that in other countries, using only skin care products is considered makeup. Things like skin lotion, toner, skin cream, body lotion. If we define the scope of makeup to that extent, Korean men, even from their father's generation, use skin care products. Regardless of age or gender, Koreans use a lot of skin care products.
In Korea, when you put on color makeup, it is considered makeup. Men also have eyebrow tattoos, so I thought it would be natural for foreigners to think that Korea wears a lot of makeup. In particular, there are a lot of men who use mask packs. . And no one thinks it's strange. But I met some friends on a trip and they thought it was strange when I gave them a mask pack as a gift. They thought I was gay. In foreign countries, it seems like they think that's gay. It seems that young men these days even use foundation products to some extent. It's just enough to cover up blemishes. Although the number is not large, I feel that the number of such people is increasing.

그 화장의 범위가 로션 스킨이 포함 된 조사라면? 5~60%는 화장을 한다고 볼수도 있을 것 같아요. 그러나 한국에서 쌍커플 수술이 시술로 통용되고 수술은 아니라는 인식이 있는 것처럼 로션스킨도 화장을 한다 라는 인식에서는 벗어나 피부 보습을 위해 샤워나 세안 후 당연히 하는 행위로 간주되기 때문에 물어보면 화장을 안한다고 말하는 것 같네요.

I'm very active in the TTMIK discord. We have several native speakers. One in particular is amazing for his ability to explain the Korean language to learners. His English is fabulous although I admit I haven't heard him actually speak. I have no doubt he speaks well.
Thank you for this video that I’ve learned more about Korean people.
Thank you for the great video
You are very creative ❤
Thank you! 😊
when i lived in korea for over 2 years i was NOT prepared for exactly how spicy the spicy food would be!
edit: also i ironically learned about luxury goods while i was there! i didnt know many brands until i lived in korea. even now it's hard for me to refer to luxury brands without using the word 명품 as i learned of the concept while i was there! haha
once my friend bought me a prada hat as a gift while i was in korea! and i was so floored and thankful but i didn't want to tell her that unlike in korea where many of the people you see on the streets are dressed casually in luxury wear, you cannot do that in the US or you become a target 😂
Wow! Finally some reassurance. its been a topic I've been waiting for, thanks!!❤❤ I was wondering if on the next video you could talk about religious beliefs, I'm really curious
I've lived in Jinju for three years, and I can count the number of people I've met here who can speak English on one hand.

@@slee2695 yeah, pretty much. It's the 33rd largest city by population. About 350k people.
이렇게 한국어로 얘기해주시는 영상을 되게 기대렸었습니다 !
개인적으로는 한국어를 들을 수 있는 걸 보고 싶긴 한데 적당히 반반으로 영어 영상도 올려주셨으면 좋겠습니다…!

화장의 범위가 어디까지인지를 먼저 규정을 하시고 말씀을 해주셔야 되지 않을까요? 선크림이나 비비크림을 바르는 것도 화장의 범주에 들어가는지 등등...실제 메이크업이라고 하는 화장을 하는 남자는 연예인 빼고는 거의 없죠...그리고 '연령층이 높으신 분들'이라는 표현은 잘못된거 같습니다. '연령이 높으신 분들 혹은 장년층, 노년층 아님 노인'이라고 표현하는게 더 정확한 표현같습니다.
when i lived in korea for a year lots of people spoke pretty good english its was cool
It helps a lot!!❤
Some of these I don’t think I’ve ever really thought about, before-like the war and dog meat. The makeup bit I don’t think I know clearly, but what about skincare? I’ve heard that a lot of Korean men take really good care of their skin, just as much as women do.
Thank you for this video! It’s good to have clarification on these things.
Korean men use a lot of skin care products. In Korea, makeup refers to color makeup. Skin care products are universal regardless of gender or age.
In fact, Korea's men's beauty market is huge. Statistically, it is the largest in the world. Most of them are skin care products.
But in foreign countries, it seems like this is also seen as makeup.
I'm a guy and I met some friends on a trip and they thought it was strange when I gave them a mask pack as a gift. They thought I was gay. so funny
@@skyshin39 Thank you! I know I don’t think of it as make up, at least, but I know that outside of Korea, skin care is usually thought of as something only women do.
Oh no! I hope your friends understand now that skin care among men in Korea is normal!
@@christinelockwood3497 I would say they are simply much more aware of importance of basic skincare. As in gentle cleanser and moisturizer.
I didn't have any of these misconceptions (I love Korean culture and language but am not really into kpop honestly.) But it was very enlightening to learn about how Korea and Koreans have been misconceived and fantasized. Thanks for the video!
Hi. How can I find transcripts for your podcasts?
케이팝을 아이돌 음악만 말하는걸로 착각하지 않았으면 함. 케이팝은 한국 대중음악이 맞음 다만 톡투미코리안님이 말하하는건 아이돌 음악만 케이팝이라고 생각하는것 같음 아님 그냥 한국대중음악이 케이팝임. 단지 아이돌 음악이 대표적으로 알려져서 케이팝 하면 아이돌 음악을 먼저 떠올릴뿐 케이팝은 한국 대중가요를 뜻하는 겁니다 아이돌 음악만 있는건 아닐 뿐이죠

Well done! thank you so much for this video. Would it be possible for you to make a video about feminism and emancipation in Korea? I would be really interested in that.😚😚
I can definitely relate to Koreans being flustered when they are suddenly addressed in English. For me, it is French. Even though I can understand it pretty well, it's hard to come up with the words on the spot so whenever someone talks to me in French, I must appear either stupid or arrogant for not replying immediately, or not in French ^^o In Korea, I had the feeling that people in cities, esp. younger people, speak English quite well (and they probably expect it more), but in the countryside it was difficult. So my little bit of Korean helped and both sides tended to talk some EN-KR gibberish but it worked xD Everyone I talked to was quite lovely about it. The most funny to me was that a few Koreans didn't expect me to speak Korean at all so they didn't understand my Korean questions as they expected some English words - at least that's what I think because when I tried again in English, it worked. I'd be humble and say that it might have been my pronunciation,but since that was what my Korean teacher praised most, I don't really think so ;)
너무 재밌어서 정말 감사해요~^^
자막없이 다 이해할 수 있는 게 아주 좋다.
한국에 왔을 때 생각보다 대부분의 사람들은 영어를 할 수 없었다. 그리고 어른 사람들은 영어로 노력을 더 간절히 했어요.
하지만 프랑스인에 비해 진짜 완벽한 발음이 있는 사람이 한국에 많이 있었다.
대부분의 상황에서 모든을 붙이면 다 진실이 아니게 됩니다. 모든 것이 그럴 수는 없는 법이죠. 하지만 대체적이란 말을 쓰면 맞는 경우가 많음. 다들 아시는 것 처럼 한국음식 매운음식이 정말 많고 대체적으로 매운 음식 좋아하시는 분이 많잖아요 월등하게 다른 나라에 비해서 그럼 맞는거죠
저부터도 그렇고 주변 사람들도 다 매운 음식 잘 먹고 좋아함 물론 아닌 사람도 있는데 그런 사람은 소수죠.
Actually, I have never been guilty of thinking of any of those 10 misconceptions. Just use common sense instead of believing that silly TikTok.
I do enjoy a couple of trot music myself having watched daily drama from KBS and MBC 🫣🫣 Ballad is my most favourite though, especially those by Davichi!
yeah while loving the more up beat k-pop genre, I do appreciate Heageum, Gayageum, Ajeang, Moktak, etc.
또박또박 설명을 잘하시네요^^
I thought it was interesting to hear about the music, and also about the food. Does anyeong mean both hi and bye? 🙂
Yes but you'd better use honorifics, annyeonghaseyo(hi), annyeongheegyeseyo(you're leaving)/annyeongheegaseyo(others leaving).

Sometimes, when I try to order spicy food and they see my pale face, they disrespect me lol. I can handle *spice* thanks to a Sri Lankan friend growing up and just a general love of all the food you can get in California. I've been told I can't order things and I've even had the spice toned down without my consent before. It doesn't really bother me, but it is funny.
Edit: I also feel that re:English, city matters. Seoul/Gyeonggi has a much higher concentration of good English speakers and more international exchange in general. I had to learn Korean pretty quickly because my first city had very few people outside of my literal coworker English teachers.
Wow❤
감사합니다
It would be the same with other countries. There will be those misunderstandings, misconceptions, ignorance about the culture and people. Some people, they visit a country once, as a tourist, and they think they know everything about that country. In the UK, I've lived in here since 1993 and I notice many immigrants who don't like to mingle or are uncomfortable with the other ethnicity in this country especially so the English, the Welsh or the Scots. Then I hear them talk some uncomfortable things yet they don't really know.
Mingle, get to know people, be nice, know their history, we are just the same people after all with our own hearts and minds.

❤❤ Hii early
I saw more male idols being asked to be Aegyo and that’s a bit weird for me as an European, even the men were in the late 20 and 30 ies…. And here the make up of men have been discussed around 10 years ago, but yes only a low percentage wears it. The spicy food fairytale comes from ramyeon and using Gojuchang often but Ji-min from BTS showed us often, that he can’t stand food which is too spicy 🥵
So i’ve been practising how to say, “not too spicy please” all year for no reason 🥵 😅
Yes there are many non-spicy Korean foods. 😊
If you are ordering any spicy Korean foods, you might still want to use that phrase.

I thought you would have mentioned that dog food was more popular when people were poor after the war. That's why some of the older generation still eat it. Am I right?

개고기를 설명한 부분이 너무 아쉽네요. 홍대에서 찾아봤다라거나 학교급식, 회사식당에 안나온다 이런거는 무리한 설정입니다.
한국인으로서 말씀드리면 한국인들 99.99%는 개고기를 먹지 않습니다. 아주 나이 많은 소수의 어르신분들 중에 드시는 분이 있습니다. 그리고 판매하는 식당도 한국에 일부지역에 극소수로 모여있었는데 그마저 법으로 없어졌습니다. 그리고 대부분 한국인은 개고기를 먹지 않기 때문에 외국인이 말하지 않는 이상 개고기라는 주제로 대화할일이 일상에서 없습니다.

Although eating dog isn't common in Korea, especially in Seoul, the Agriculture ministry estimated in 2022 that there are 1,600 dog meat restaurants. There are over 1,100 dog farms breeding over 570,000 dogs to be eaten. The Korean Association of Edible Dogs commented on the recent incoming BAN on dog meat, saying it would actually affect 3,500 famrs, raising 1.5 million dogs for 3,000 restaurants. So, whichever statistic you want to believe, it's still a lot. Though the ban will be coming in soon and they'll all have to do something else.
Aegyo is everywhere, even my wife does it. I find that Korean people act like this due to the influence of dramas and the numerous reality TV shows. Korean humour and comedy is still very slaptstick and reliant on physicality and facial expression in comparison with western humour. You can especially see this overacting when they are surprised, or amazed at something.
A restaurant that sells dog meat is called Bosintang Restaurant. Of course, there are restaurants exclusively for dog meat, but on the contrary, there are many restaurants that sell a variety of foods. Not all of the restaurants you suggested are for dog meat. And now, most of the people in their 40s and younger in Korea have never eaten dog meat, and the main consumers of dog meat are those in their 60s and older who have lived a rough life. The dog meat culture in Korea, known in the West, is very exaggerated, and there is a small number of dog meat consumers in the entire population. There will be no dog meat consumption in the future due to the revision of the law, but even without it, it is a culture that will naturally survive because young people rarely consume dog meat. Rather, China consumes more dog meat than Korea, as there is a dog meat festival.
And there are almost all dog meat consumers in most of Asia. It's really questionable why Korea has become synonymous with a dog meat eating country.
Who cares..if you eat cows or pigs you cant speak..yt boy
Korean language is the best language to me.😊

Do Korean women love flowerboys from the K-dramas and avoid muscles? That's the question I have in my mind. Considering the different statuses of masculinity more accepted between the Asian countries and the Western countries.
they like pretty faces. I dont know what you mean by avoiding muscles. pretty boys can be jacked too and these guys tend to be super popular irl
They don't hate muscles. But I think they just like natural look muscles rather than huge muscles that look like they've used drugs
i would like to say that korea is not racist. but it is very hard to say it when you have seen communities of schools, office groups, and k-netizens. racism is in every country, and some are more racist towards aseans.

If possible, I'd like to understand something: I've noticed in Kdramas that women are very frequently infantilized in the stories, with their reactions, and behaviors, especially towards men. Is this accurate in real life, are women usually like this? I highly doubt this is the case in real life, but I find it curious this constant infantilized expression in Kdramas.
It's actually a hot topic among younger generations in Korea. The aegyo thing was considered 'cute' and 'pure' back until 2010s I would say, but now many Koreans consider aegyo as a mental illness😂so cringe and weird tbh...some couples behave like that for sure but drama is a drama!
@@mjmj734 I know that drama is a drama. My question is about why are women portrayed like that in dramas. There must be a reason, a cultural one at least. I notice this quite a lot in the east, while in the west it’s the opposite.
@@tati79ana Well there must be a lot of reasons behind it but in my opinion, the typical features of traditional Korean women are like...weak, submissive, devoted, doll-like, innocent, someone who should be looked after by men(father, older brother, husband etc.). And East Asian countries are still conservative in general compared to western countries.
The interesting thing is that Korean dramas featuring such women are popular overseas. Mostly fantasy rom-coms. There are many Korean dramas with various genres, plots and characters but those are not a jam to K-Drama fans.
Many Korean dramas have become a means of solidifying stereotypes for sure. It's like portraying dumb blonde women, smart or nerdy asians, drug dealer Mexicans and Russian spies in American movies.

You are literally everywhere about Korea. You always belittle Korea over and ther but It seems like You're secretly love korea 😂

I was waiting for the following in this video:
1) Koreans being obsessed with plastic surgery
2) Korean kids spend so many hours a day studying. After school, they go to tutors to study English or music, etc.
3) Koreans are racist. However, some races or people tend to be racist. I have seen so many articles about Koreans being racist.
It was not discussed. I would like to know what you think about that.
1. Some girls do. It's mostly simple one like double eyelid surgery
2. Yes, very normal
3. Racists exist in Korea as much as in other countries.
1) Most men don’t do this. However, it can be easily found in occupations such as celebrities and SNS uploaders. In the case of women, many people, including the general public, have undergone plastic surgery.
2) You are right.
3) There is racial discrimination. The global standard considers racism against blacks, Latinos, and Asians, but in Korea, racism against Southeast Asians is severe.
The countries that claim Korea to be racist are also super racist...like Philippines
I want to know why Asian elderly people are randomly attacked in America?
