You know you're Korean when...

The following email forward will only be funny to some of you, and funny is an understatement to those lucky few. To the rest it will be boring, mysterious, or insulting.

Enjoy!


You know you're Korean When:

out.

21) You appear to be thinking you look quite dignified while drinking
your shooter of 2 cent booze after noisily slurping octopus.

because you think running fans can kill you!

38) You've traveled to various places in the world and when asked about

the food?" "No. Well, only the chicken. The only food I ate in Germany was
chicken."
