Pann: What are some Korean things that are popular overseas?

1. [+90, -0] Samsung

2. [+72, -1] This ㅋㅋㅋㅋ They call it ldH ㅋㅋ



3. [+55, -3] Food delivery service, safety, and buldak bokkeummyun? Also that we're a divided country.

4. [+49, -0] Neoguri ramen. They flip it and read it as RtA ㅋㅋㅋ



5. [+30, -0] Mukbang

6. [+24, -0] Sonny! I'm talking about Son Heung Min.

7. [+23, -0] Mukbang. Mukbang started in Korea so the foreign Youtubers who do mukbang write 'mukbang' in their titles.

8. [+22, -0] Instant coffee. Korea was the first to develop it and ours also tastes the best. A lot of tourists in Korea buy it as gifts for their friends.

9. [+21, -4] Seriously, people think Samsung is Japanese...

10. [+19, -1] Homi ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ



11. [+19, -0] Music shows are so popular. Masked Singer is sold a lot.

12. [+18, -0] Buldak. Foreign Youtubers' must item to test Korean love.

13. [+16, -4] Oreo O's
- [+10, -0] This is originally American. It stopped being sold in the US and Dongseo Foods had the recipe, that's why they made it and sold it in Korea. That's how it became popular as a Korean product. I think they started re-selling it in the US now.

14. [+15, -0] Hallyu


Complex Korean age system


Age of Kim Eun Song who was born in January, 1991

Social age: 30
- She went to school with those born in 1990 because early birthdays (January~March) enter school a year earlier

Korean age: 29
- 1-year-old as soon as you're born, you age every new year

Yearly age: 28
- Year she was born~current year

Legal (international) age: 27 (assuming that her birthday hasn't passed yet this year)
- Born with the age of 0, you age on your birthday

Pann: Something that only exists in Korea in the world

1. [+126, -2] Let's use the legal age. I want to be younger...

2. [+126, -2] I thought they were changing the age system this year? Why are they so quiet?

3. [+94, -3] Why is our country the only one doing this? I don't get it.

4. [+62, -0] Our country is the only one where a baby born on December 31 will be two-years-old in just two days. So stupid.

5. [+35, -0] If we were to use the legal age, we have to get rid of the titles of hyung/noona/unnie/oppa, we have to call them by (name)-ssi only ㅋㅋㅋㅋ Imagine a legal 26-year-old and a 25-year-old agreeing on how to address each other, and then the 25-year-old's birthday passes and they become the same age. Then what?

6. [+32, -0] Our country can never use the legal age because of the titles like unnie/oppa ㅋㅋㅋㅋ Even if they're born in the same year, they'll have to consider their birthdays ㅋㅋㅋ

7. [+29, -2] I didn't realize how serious the age system was until I heard that Bentley was 3-years-old at 15 months.

8. [+22, -0] Can we please switch to the legal age?
