well maybe not funny as so much as typical for the foreigner experience. Some are bothered by this…myself I figure it comes with the territory. In a previous blog I did mention that I had been naked in front of other women on a number of occasions and this is why.
Anyways, to my story. I am sitting and relaxing in a hot tub. Not thinking about anything. I have an overactive imagination so sometimes I appreciate it being tamed, even for a short time. I opened my eyes and saw this senior Korean lady step into the hot tub. I didn’t think anything of it. But then i noticed her watching at me, analyzing me with her eyes. I wasn’t sure what she was thinking, But then….
I saw her walk in my direction. And i knew what was coming next….I am not sure how I knew, I could just sense it. She stopped in front of me….and reached out and felt my right breast and said ‘Very good!’. Now many would have panicked. for an example of this..see sixteen candles when Samantha is grabbed by her grandmother. But I breathed a sigh of relief followed by silent laughter. I had anticipated a korean comment or not a good english comment but instead I was complimented on it.
I have heard from my male friends, that this has occurred to them as well. These are the stories that cause some men to become uncomfortable and so they won’t ever try the experience. Get over yourself. It is wonderful, relaxing and definitely the korean way.
I am starting to believe it is not just Koreans that need to lighten up.
