Things In South Korea That Will Shock You

Spitting and less trash cans.

[@nerdgirl8978]

I was surprised that no one mentioned the toilet system?! 🤢 The plumbing is too tight/too small. So to not clogg the system, alot of the restrooms want you to putt the toilet paper in a bin instead of flush it down. Quite nasty to have someone else's poop or used menstrual pads in front of you. I never got used to that 🤢 ...some of the public restrooms also only has the squatting/"stand up" toilets to choose, (not my favorite, especially if you're drunk on the same time😅). The no salt thing is also true, they didn't even have salt available for french fries on hamburger bars. And the chips/crisps had sugar on them instead of salt. The no trashcan thing was surprising, especially since the pavewalks were spotless and so clean. Instead they had piles on the streets/in the gutter, like a shop/store put a pile there of their waste to be picked up later, and the people going past it just kept on building on that pile. ...Once I saw a nice car almost covered up by one of those big piles. (That poor car owner was probably not happy when he/she was going to take the car to work the next morning. 😅)

spent a month in South Korea in September 2023. The following surprised me: 1) free wifi on buses and subway (underground trains) 2) non-Korean bank cards not working when trying to pay at subway turnstiles or bus tap in points 3) Food in restaurants/takeaway being relatively inexpensive 4) The beautiful aesthetics of cafes 5) Kindness of strangers (South Koreans and foreigners in the country)

[@michaelcorbett4236]

In 2005 I was in Barbados. We'd sailed in a small yacht across the Atlantic from Europe and I just looked like a man who'd been on a boat at sea. I went for lunch in a small place serving chicken. When I went in it was only me and the owner as I think she'd just opened. So I said hello, ordered and sat down. Then a man walked in who in turned out was her husband. He said "good morning, good morning". I was minding my own business and didn't think about it. Then another person came in and said "good morning, good morning, good morning". That's when it hit me: they're talking to me too!. I quickly said good morning and then good morning to everyone else who came in. I'm Irish so we have a certain level of politeness anyway but that was another level. I felt like I was rude fool.

[@yourthoughtsarenotyours]

The reason for the episodes of not holding the door for the person behind them or walking away without apologizing when someone bump into you is probably because in crowded Seoul, people are always under pressure to act quickly. You don't want to be the person who disrupts the flow of a fast moving crowd.

How do you know for sure that the person behind you was also gonna enter like you... or was simply behind you to stop and stare at the door or something... all without asking? I once had to enter inside against my plan, which was simply to read the chart posted on the door, just because someone held the door for me to enter without asking me and I did not want to be rude to him by closing it - I then came out when he was not looking, again, just not to hurt his feeling. I think going for existentialism makes sense in a busy society when politeness entails cumbersome inefficiency of (i)asking the person behind you about intention, (ii) pressuring him to rush lest keep you waiting, (iii) wrongly assuming his action so that he thanks you, does something against his wish just to be nice, and then undoes it immediately outside your attention, again, just to be nice, in response to your original, thoughtless, niceness. You see the steps it can lead to, in an overly nice society of making assumptions for others?

[@김죠안나]

The western country and Korea have different rules. Opening the door by yourself, it’s Korean rule. As a Korean, I never once think it was strange and uncomfortable before traveling the U.S. That culture is not necessary in Korea. Traveling is experiencing the differences.

Since the streets are devoid of trash cans, Koreans who walk their dog must hold with their hands their dog's poop (put inside plastic bag) for the remaining duration of the walk, bring it home and dispose properly. Koreans take it as part of owning a pet. Holding it reminds you that your dog is a living, breathing organism that must rely on you for everything, he feels safe pooping before your eyes, he is hugely relieved and happy now, and you feel a connection with him. Plus, an added bonus, it keeps your hand warm in winter time. Everything is what you make of it, and I am sure many pet owners share my feelings. If I feel this way about my pet, taking my own trash home should feel all the more natural - I am being self-sufficient and being nobody's burden, leaving spotless where I tread. I hope to leave the world this way as well.

I think a lot of junk food and meat dishes are sweet in Korea. But most soups are salty/savory. Soup/stews are the pillar of home cooked Korean food and stems from when many Koreans were poor. Anything with “-tang” or “jjige” at the end should not be sweet. Many nameul or side dishes are not sweet. Traditional Korean cuisine often includes grilled fish that is not sweet. But “western” and fusion foods are disgustingly sweet. When in Korea, just eat Korean food. If you need western food now and then, stick with McDonalds.

@@jiminswriter4209 Can't you tell that's uncivilized behavior? I guess, that's acceptable in Korea. That's more like catcalling to her in this situation. It seems you are confused about freedom of speech. Very unfortunate.

i think you're reading way too much into his comment lol. i don't think he meant to diss the other two girls

[@aanchalaanchal6914]

Here's what I found shocking: 1) Dating culture guy mentioned, meeting bf/gf 6 days week mandatory & if you don't not just that person broke up with you but also quickly find another GF/BF.😮 Sounds like no strings attached one night relationship. 2- 3 times in week is normal but 6 days,How's that even possible? Doesn't people have office (unless they work in same office)which literally consumed atleast 12hrs/day then 8 hour sleep human needs. In 4hrs we do rest of our house chores including cooking and eating breakfast/lunch/dinner also need family time. 2) No trash can in public place and pay for polythene bags. 3)If an American says Korean food is sweet then as indian I don't know.😂 4)My biggest shock I already received few months ago when I come to know Korean banned Indian from entering club/restaurant and not just in korea. But korean come to India,open restaurant,hire staff from other south asian countries and banned indians in entering in his restaurant 😮 It can't get worse than this.

[@411faithhopelove]

I’ve never met up with a bf that many times a week in Korea nor did they require that of me. Maybe it’s something students do? Indians are not banned from all restaurants or clubs. Maybe some nightclubs that don’t take any foreigners. They had to do that because some people got into fights and made some trouble so they want to avoid that (not saying it’s right). Restaurants? Never heard of that but I guess it’s possible. I see a lot of Indians living here so it couldn’t be the absolute worst place to live.

The girl from Spain only looked into the camera when answering. Kinda rude. Engage with the interviewer, more polite.

It’s not as popular to wear tight shirts and jeans to show off your physique anymore if that’s your purpose. I’m a gym guy too, but I’m not really interested in showing off my physique out in public when it comes to fashion at least.

i spit... it keeps me being a man..

[@yannickjohn6930]

I'm manly too but public spitting makes me not want to talk to you.

[@Sotanath86q]

it makes you a child

[@etjaajtaejet-cc8qy]

Fellas, is it gay to not spit?

[@jyd1384]

All global nations and their native people have had their intrinsic social vibes, traditional behaviors, and even typical food flavors. And South Korea and its people are part of them. If some foreigners meet unfamiliar living or food styles overseas, will get unexpected shocking moments occasionally. These people from overseas should remember that before having shocking experiences in South Korea. Because they are not Koreans and just foreigners who don't know everything about Korea..didn't know that fact? Questions and answers made me so ridiculous.

[@RjlpqeQs]

I hope you don't get too sensitive. I don't think anyone gave an outrageous answer. They just answered open-mindedly what they felt.

[@propertymanager9149]

wtf is asian american trends? what is that bobba talking about

[@가니다-k6r]

The reason why Westerners hate spitting on the street so much is because of the custom of wearing shoes indoors. Koreans also hate it, but Westerners' reaction is excessive from a Korean perspective. 

[@kellykade]

No, it just doesn’t look right and it doesn’t make the person look good. That’s just nasty. Has nothing to do with shoes indoors.
