| I found this randomly on the ineternet and I thought it's fun to share it here :D You have a container full of Kimchi in your fridge right now. You or your parents start singing when drunk. The main reason why you want to go to college out of state is that you can get away from your parents. Your parents are shorter than you. You call a Korean older than you "Oppa/Hyung" or "Unnee/Nuna" Your parents think church is a social event. You had to miss out on Saturday morning cartoons as a child, attending the dreaded Korean School. "No-Rae-Bang" is a common household word. Your main source of income is New Year's. Everyone asks if you're Chinese. Your parents think anything goes with rice. Your parents have never kissed you. Your parents have never kissed each other. Failing a class means finding a new place to live. Your mom rents Korean soap operas and watches them daily. Sleeping on the floor is nothing new to you. Your parents yell your Korean name REAL loud in public places. No matter how hard they try, your parents will never pronounce "wood" correctly. You think ramen is the fifth food group. You have to translate for your parents when ordering fast food. Your mother has a short haired, curly perm. Your parents still tried to get you into places half-price saying you're 12 when you're really 14. You ask your parents help on your math homework and 2 hours later they're still lecturing you about how they knew it in 4th grade. You have a 40 lb. bag of rice in your pantry. You've had a bowl haircut in one part in your life. You've had to sit through karaoke videos with ugly Asian women attempting to dance in a temple or park. You've had to eat parts of animals they don't even put in hot dogs. Piles of shoes tend to make it hard to open the front, back, and closet doors. You hear (your name + eee (optional) + yah) every time someone calls you. Your parents insist you marry someone Korean. People see a bunch of scribble on chopsticks and ask you to translate. Your parents simply cut off the green/black part off the bread and say "Eat it anyway, it's good for you." Your parents have either forced you to play the piano, violin, or both. Your parents read about some super nerd who has no life and got in the paper for scoring highest in the SATs and ask why you can't be more like him. When an Asian girl with a white guy or an Asian guy with a white girl walks by, your parents STARE at them with their eyes popping out. When you go to buffets, your parents make you eat until you think you're going to hurl, and even after you do, they say, "Good, eat more." Your parents never participated in the "American" traditions of Santa Claus, Easter Bunny, or the Tooth Fairy. You'll say, "Where's Santa Claus?" and they'll reply, "Santa Claus! Ptch! He's dead!" And then you'll start crying. After you're get off the phone with someone from the opposite sex, your parents will start interrogating you about that person. You'll talk to someone from the opposite sex two days in a row, and your parents immediately think there's something going on. You bring home straight As, and your parents say, "So? You're supposed to get that!" When the bill comes, you practically beat each other up- saying that YOU'LL pay for the bill. You either have to be a doctor, lawyer, or some big-time business tycoon. There's a bottle of Soju in your parents' fridge. You can't believe your parents could have conceived children. You go out two Fridays in a row, and they yell that you go out too much. You have the ability to tell the different Asians apart (i.e. Chinese, Japanese, Vietnamese). When you had your first loose tooth, your parents promised to not to pull it out but just to LOOK at it, but when they did, they just yanked the baby out. You think EVERYTHING is racial, like if someone is mildly rude to you. You ridicule your parents' or Korean-Korean friends' taste in melodramatic K-dramas and K-pop, but you secretly watch and listen to it in your bedroom. You think that anybody who doesn't agree that Francesco Totti OBVIOUSLY deserved a second yellow card in the 2002 World Cup is a racist. You become physically ill when you are forced to consider the fact that in the past, maybe, just maybe, your parents actually had sex. Your parents don't believe that partying and socializing with girls/boys is a healthy part of teenage life. Your parents regard marrying a Chinese person as "interracial marriage". You think that anybody who makes a less-than-laudatory remark about an Asian athlete must be a racist. You regard archery just as much as a sport as boxing. You get the sudden urge to speak Korean when around Korean people, even if they are majoring in English composition. You have unwavering pride in the fact that despite Korea's historical hardships (being surrounded by China, Japan, and Russia), it has stood strong and now possesses the world's 11th richest economy. You think Bush and his neo-conservative agenda is more dangerous to the world than Kim Jong-Il and his nukes. You have to constantly explain to non-Koreans that kimchi is not a meal in itself, but just a side dish. You feel great pride in the fact that Harold in "Harold and Kumar Go To White Castle" is Korean. You have conflicting feelings about eating dogs: On one hand, you hate the few weird Koreans who actually do it, but on the other, you hate the judgmental non-Koreans who have arbitrarily decided that slaughtering bunnies and lambs are okay, but eating dogs is savage. You think Tae Kwon Do can beat up Kung Fu, Judo, and Karate put together. You know what short track speed skating is and you eagerly watch it every 4 years in the Winter Olympics. Your parents regale you with stories about some kid they know who not only gets straight A's, but also speaks 10 languages (preferably all Asian ones), has saved the world at least twice, and is a mean golfer. And when you say, "Oh yeah, who is it? What's his/her name?", they fluster and try to find an escape route. You point out the fact that the average South Korean male is about as tall as the average Frenchman, Italian, or Spaniard (source: Wikipedia "human height") when some dumbass inevitably cracks the "Asian guys are short" joke. Not that we care really: beauty is within. AND PERHAPS MOSTLY IMPORTANTLY, AS MUCH AS YOU MAY COMPLAIN ABOUT ALL THINGS KOREAN, YOU'LL KNOCK THE LIVING DAYLIGHTS OUT OF ANYBODY WHO DARES TO SAY ONE BAD THING ABOUT US! You're proud to be Korean - and you pass these jokes on to all your Korean friends! |
| I laughed so hard at this quote since my parents do this to my brother who dates white girls. Hyesungie said: When an Asian girl with a white guy or an Asian guy with a white girl walks by, your parents STARE at them with their eyes popping out. Most of the other information in the list is true xD. I personally am very loyal to my parents and I will probably will be encourage to marry a Korean girl. Hyesungie said: Your parents think church is a social event. This is so true since most people don't give a s**t about church even if they say they love god and stuff. |

Later I asked if she was really korean XD You or your parents start singing when drunk. ahh very true. have our own little noe rae bang thing. but they hardly get drunk since we've moving to a boring place. The main reason why you want to go to college out of state is that you can get away from your parents. YESS! actually I hate the state I live in also. Your parents are shorter than you. Ahh I'm getting there. You call a Korean older than you "Oppa/Hyung" or "Unnee/Nuna" mm yes. Even when I am in school I have an urge to call them that but I end up just not saying their name or anything altogether. I just feel awkward calling elders by their name.. plus I have a habit of bowing my head to people slightly. Your parents think church is a social event. very unreligious parents. But my mom does occasionally go when invited by friends. You had to miss out on Saturday morning cartoons as a child, attending the dreaded Korean School. Never been forced to go! WOOT! "No-Rae-Bang" is a common household word. not really.. -_- Your main source of income is New Year's. I wish.. Everyone asks if you're Chinese. wish they didn't ;~; Your parents think anything goes with rice. So do I. Rice is my favorite food! Your parents have never kissed you. yes but not often anymore. Your parents have never kissed each other. I've seen them once. ughh.. Failing a class means finding a new place to live. no.. Your mom rents Korean soap operas and watches them daily.

Your parents still tried to get you into places half-price saying you're 12 when you're really 14. no that wouldn't work. You ask your parents help on your math homework and 2 hours later they're still lecturing you about how they knew it in 4th grade. haha no. You have a 40 lb. bag of rice in your pantry. yes You've had a bowl haircut in one part in your life. Luckily no. >_< You've had to sit through karaoke videos with ugly Asian women attempting to dance in a temple or park. AHA! WHAT?! Dunno about that.. You've had to eat parts of animals they don't even put in hot dogs. eww no.. Piles of shoes tend to make it hard to open the front, back, and closet doors. I own like 5 pairs?? You hear (your name + eee (optional) + yah) every time someone calls you. I thought of my mom saying that just now. -_- Your parents insist you marry someone Korean. they imply(?) it? People see a bunch of scribble on chopsticks and ask you to translate. yes. or anything they find. Your parents simply cut off the green/black part off the bread and say "Eat it anyway, it's good for you." BAHA. NOPE!

Your parents never participated in the "American" traditions of Santa Claus, Easter Bunny, or the Tooth Fairy. You'll say, "Where's Santa Claus?" and they'll reply, "Santa Claus! Ptch! He's dead!" And then you'll start crying. AWW thats horrible. My tooth fairy gave me 20 bucks once. After you're get off the phone with someone from the opposite sex, your parents will start interrogating you about that person. You'll talk to someone from the opposite sex two days in a row, and your parents immediately think there's something going on. my parents seem really laid back from reading all this. You bring home straight As, and your parents say, "So? You're supposed to get that!" my mom seems content. When the bill comes, you practically beat each other up- saying that YOU'LL pay for the bill. my mom makes me write the checks anyway. You either have to be a doctor, lawyer, or some big-time business tycoon. nah planned to be a dentist before all that but they do bring it up and I start going on about how money isn't everything as long as your happy with what you're doing. There's a bottle of Soju in your parents' fridge. no alcohol.

You ridicule your parents' or Korean-Korean friends' taste in melodramatic K-dramas and K-pop, but you secretly watch and listen to it in your bedroom. haha no You think that anybody who doesn't agree that Francesco Totti OBVIOUSLY deserved a second yellow card in the 2002 World Cup is a racist. too young to know You become physically ill when you are forced to consider the fact that in the past, maybe, just maybe, your parents actually had sex. oh crick.... but they love each other. ^_^ Your parents don't believe that partying and socializing with girls/boys is a healthy part of teenage life. nooo Your parents regard marrying a Chinese person as "interracial marriage". yes. You think that anybody who makes a less-than-laudatory remark about an Asian athlete must be a racist. eh haven't talked about asian athletes much.

| lols might as well comment on every one of these: You have a container full of Kimchi in your fridge right now. - Damn Straight You or your parents start singing when drunk. - lolz parent's aren't so fond of alcohol. The main reason why you want to go to college out of state is that you can get away from your parents. - I've been away from my parents for over 5 years now. (explanation maybe some other time) Your parents are shorter than you. - Mum yes, Dad im catching up to him :D You call a Korean older than you "Oppa/Hyung" or "Unnee/Nuna" - of course Your parents think church is a social event. - grandparents think so. You had to miss out on Saturday morning cartoons as a child, attending the dreaded Korean School. - for 2 years then i stopped going, ive been fully integrated to the white Australian society. "No-Rae-Bang" is a common household word. - That's just stupid Your main source of income is New Year's. - Hell no Everyone asks if you're Chinese. - Half and Half Your parents think anything goes with rice. - Ignorance is bliss Your parents have never kissed you. - Who kisses their parents ewww, ...on the cheek yes except for dad thats just wrong Your parents have never kissed each other. - pff, how do you expect them to conceive me if they haven't even kissed 0.0 Failing a class means finding a new place to live. - I expect myself that below 90% is failing a class, that is my own expectation Your mom rents Korean soap operas and watches them daily. - We got cable :D Sleeping on the floor is nothing new to you. - Damn straight Your parents yell your Korean name REAL loud in public places. - Grandparents too, every embarressing No matter how hard they try, your parents will never pronounce "wood" correctly. - Nop You think ramen is the fifth food group. - lols.... yeah You have to translate for your parents when ordering fast food. - nop Your mother has a short haired, curly perm. - no Your parents still tried to get you into places half-price saying you're 12 when you're really 14. - Grandparents did lol You ask your parents help on your math homework and 2 hours later they're still lecturing you about how they knew it in 4th grade. - nop, im ace's at maths You have a 40 lb. bag of rice in your pantry. - hell yeah You've had a bowl haircut in one part in your life. - hell no You've had to sit through karaoke videos with ugly Asian women attempting to dance in a temple or park. - not forced to sit through one but ive seen it. You've had to eat parts of animals they don't even put in hot dogs. - I love it, especially the intestines and stomach. Piles of shoes tend to make it hard to open the front, back, and closet doors. - hmmm no You hear (your name + eee (optional) + yah) every time someone calls you. -yeh Your parents insist you marry someone Korean. - sort of but they don't really mind as long as im happy :D People see a bunch of scribble on chopsticks and ask you to translate. - lols yeh, then when i say 'im korean' they say 'your all Asian' Your parents simply cut off the green/black part off the bread and say "Eat it anyway, it's good for you." - wtf Your parents have either forced you to play the piano, violin, or both. - nop, i choose to play clarinet though lols Your parents read about some super nerd who has no life and got in the paper for scoring highest in the SATs and ask why you can't be more like him. - no, my parents are pretty cool about this expectation to do well. When an Asian girl with a white guy or an Asian guy with a white girl walks by, your parents STARE at them with their eyes popping out. - nop, my dad once asked whether i would marry a white girl theni i replied "Dad, i like to keep my options open, except [a certain colour which i will not name, no offence, thought it is offensive]" When you go to buffets, your parents make you eat until you think you're going to hurl, and even after you do, they say, "Good, eat more." - Grandparents yet again Your parents never participated in the "American" traditions of Santa Claus, Easter Bunny, or the Tooth Fairy. You'll say, "Where's Santa Claus?" and they'll reply, "Santa Claus! Ptch! He's dead!" And then you'll start crying. - Hell no, we participate! After you're get off the phone with someone from the opposite sex, your parents will start interrogating you about that person. You'll talk to someone from the opposite sex two days in a row, and your parents immediately think there's something going on. - lol i wish You bring home straight As, and your parents say, "So? You're supposed to get that!" - no When the bill comes, you practically beat each other up- saying that YOU'LL pay for the bill. -no You either have to be a doctor, lawyer, or some big-time business tycoon. - No i want to be a doctor There's a bottle of Soju in your parents' fridge. - no You can't believe your parents could have conceived children. - nop, love em :), but some of Korean friends parents hate each other i was surprised they had kids. You go out two Fridays in a row, and they yell that you go out too much. - nop, my aunt insists i stay home and study, while my dads like go out and get a girlfriend, and stop being a nerd. You have the ability to tell the different Asians apart (i.e. Chinese, Japanese, Vietnamese). - dam street, i also have the sense of predicting which of my teachers will get pregnant (2 out of 2) dam straight! When you had your first loose tooth, your parents promised to not to pull it out but just to LOOK at it, but when they did, they just yanked the baby out. - no You think EVERYTHING is racial, like if someone is mildly rude to you. - LoL no but i do act it out, i love to play with stereotypes. You ridicule your parents' or Korean-Korean friends' taste in melodramatic K-dramas and K-pop, but you secretly watch and listen to it in your bedroom. - no, i like some k-dramas but i do not like to make my parents feel bad about their tastes. You think that anybody who doesn't agree that Francesco Totti OBVIOUSLY deserved a second yellow card in the 2002 World Cup is a racist. - lol not a racistis but fucking stupid, Song clearly touched the ball first and Totti dived. You become physically ill when you are forced to consider the fact that in the past, maybe, just maybe, your parents actually had sex. - No, and i dont like to venture into that area. Your parents don't believe that partying and socializing with girls/boys is a healthy part of teenage life. - no my dad is all for it Your parents regard marrying a Chinese person as "interracial marriage". - ...no You think that anybody who makes a less-than-laudatory remark about an Asian athlete must be a racist. - no, but like i said i just pretend to, i love milking stereotypes. You regard archery just as much as a sport as boxing. - Dam striaght, go the Korean Archer Team!! You get the sudden urge to speak Korean when around Korean people, even if they are majoring in English composition. - Yes You have unwavering pride in the fact that despite Korea's historical hardships (being surrounded by China, Japan, and Russia), it has stood strong and now possesses the world's 11th richest economy. - lols.... really You think Bush and his neo-conservative agenda is more dangerous to the world than Kim Jong-Il and his nukes. - wtf, You have to constantly explain to non-Koreans that kimchi is not a meal in itself, but just a side dish. - YES, LOLS, one of my friends ate kimchi even when the meals weren't out yet and asked why it was what can i say hmmm 'sourish' lols. You feel great pride in the fact that Harold in "Harold and Kumar Go To White Castle" is Korean. - yes and Escape from Gutanamo bay You have conflicting feelings about eating dogs: On one hand, you hate the few weird Koreans who actually do it, but on the other, you hate the judgmental non-Koreans who have arbitrarily decided that slaughtering bunnies and lambs are okay, but eating dogs is savage. - I have eaten dogs, but parents and their friends said it was beef, i finally found out one of favourite dishes was actually dog meat...no comment You think Tae Kwon Do can beat up Kung Fu, Judo, and Karate put together. - Damn Straight!! You know what short track speed skating is and you eagerly watch it every 4 years in the Winter Olympics. -lols no Your parents regale you with stories about some kid they know who not only gets straight A's, but also speaks 10 languages (preferably all Asian ones), has saved the world at least twice, and is a mean golfer. And when you say, "Oh yeah, who is it? What's his/her name?", they fluster and try to find an escape route. - no You point out the fact that the average South Korean male is about as tall as the average Frenchman, Italian, or Spaniard (source: Wikipedia "human height") when some dumbass inevitably cracks the "Asian guys are short" joke. Not that we care really: beauty is within. - lol, u and i both know we care AND PERHAPS MOSTLY IMPORTANTLY, AS MUCH AS YOU MAY COMPLAIN ABOUT ALL THINGS KOREAN, YOU'LL KNOCK THE LIVING DAYLIGHTS OUT OF ANYBODY WHO DARES TO SAY ONE BAD THING ABOUT US! - Already have :D You're proud to be Korean - and you pass these jokes on to all your Korean friends! - Damn Straight! |

| "There's a bottle of Soju in your parents' fridge. " Yep. |
 |
| This was quite a laugh for me. I have read many of these sort of things, but this one topped the cake. xD Hyesungie said: The main reason why you want to go to college out of state is that you can get away from your parents. ...Now how did you know? Hyesungie said: Your parents think church is a social event. It's always, whose house for small group... Hyesungie said: You had to miss out on Saturday morning cartoons as a child, attending the dreaded Korean School. And i certainly learned nothing out of it. Hyesungie said: Everyone asks if you're Chinese. Actually someone asked me if i was North korean........O.O Hyesungie said: Your mom rents Korean soap operas and watches them daily. Unless your mom has discovered crunchyroll, veoh or pangtv Hyesungie said: When an Asian girl with a white guy or an Asian guy with a white girl walks by, your parents STARE at them with their eyes popping out. Wow, that was a surprise to read but so true. xD Hyesungie said: You have the ability to tell the different Asians apart (i.e. Chinese, Japanese, Vietnamese). It's a gift any Korean/Asian has really. ^_^ Hyesungie said: Your parents regard marrying a Chinese person as "interracial marriage". Lol. |

| Hmm you should add 'plays starcraft 100 hours a week' :D |
 |
| Starcraft dead its all about playing sudden attack for too many hours you don't even remeber |
| You ask your parents help on your math homework and 2 hours later they're still lecturing you about how they knew it in 4th grade. So true. |
| "You have a container full of Kimchi in your fridge right now." How?? How did you know!?!? STALKER!!! "You become physically ill when you are forced to consider the fact that in the past, maybe, just maybe, your parents actually had sex." I think this one applies to ALL kids of ALL RACES. Besides, my parents didn't do.. THAT. The stork brought me! For Real! ....SHUT UP THAT'S THE TRUTH AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHH Hahahaha this was hilarious XD A few of those can apply to almost any culture out there though, just a simple change of a few words and voila :D |
