You Know You've Been Watching Too Many Kdramas When

especially when I’m frustrated!
I was hosting a Zoom meeting with my skit team for a project and I got so frustrated at one point because everyone was yelling the same things at the same time that I went “AISHHH JINJJA!!” and everyone just went ??? :joy:
I had to clarify that I hadn’t invented a new English curse word, I’m just an addicted drama fan :woman_facepalming:

[You Know You’ve Been Watching Too Many Kdramas When]

How about this, eating :shrimp::hot_pepper::tangerine: these, as a regular instead of your own snacks.

They are so crunchy and not TOO sweet! I found them at my local Korean market!

This is my list (just for your knowledge I’ve been learning Korean for a little while so it might have affected my experience):

  • you start speaking sentences in Korean and using expressions like “Aish” and “Aigoo” to your friends and family even though they don’t understand a thing;
  • predicting what the characters are going to say before they actually say it (I was shook, it happened when I was watching Hotel Del Luna);
  • you understand what’s going on even without reading the subtitles.

I am not very good with Korean but I find I get the “jest” of what they are saying without having to watch the subtitles all the time! Aigoo

Wow! I think K-dramas have that affect on people. Once you are introduced to K-dramas, you can’t ever stop watching them.:wink:

And @mirjam_465 thinks she can quit any moment :joy: I dare you @mirjam_465 :rofl: or anyone else for that matter :laughing::stuck_out_tongue_closed_eyes:

I know it’s not just me, but have you ever have the drama, or movie you paused watching just pop up in your emotions with such strong attachment, like it’s calling you back to finish. You literally feel as if you have something quite important needing your time, and nothing else will satisfy.

It’s often those cliff hangar scenes of the afore mentioned white truck, or simply crossing the street :laughing::stuck_out_tongue_closed_eyes::laughing: and similar in kind scenes, that compels you back. . .
