You have been in Korea too Long if

“You have been in Korea too long if…”

This one is from John Simmons:
: a trip to the movies has you craving dried squid.
: Pink is your new black.

These are from Verena Blaho:
:you cut everything with scissors and you don’t mind toilet paper on the table.

These are from Ashley Cheeseman,
:You take a deep exaggerated in breath and tilt your head to the side when you’re thinking negative thoughts about something. And you bow to everyone you see from a distance as a greeting.


And here are some from Young Hong:
1.You have ramyun or a spicy soup when you have a hangover in the morning.
2.You say, “ah, siwonhada,” which ironically means cool when you have scalding hot spicy soup.
3.You wear the same outfit as your boyfriend or girlfriend when you go out on a date.
4.(for girls) you can wear a mini skirt even when it is negative 5 degrees.
5.You often say, "Chincha"
6.You say, “fighting” when your friend is going to do anything that is challenging.

What do you think? Have any others you can add to this list?
