convenience store at any time of the night or day for less than 1 € (approximately 60 cents). I usually do not drink coffee, but here it is really a meeting point with your friend and I have to admit that the Iced Vanilla Latte tastes very good ! #Coffee #KoreanCoffeeCluture

In South Korea, the average annual per capita coffee consumption is 405 cups, about double the world average. We can taste so many different coffee flavours or types of coffee. You can even buy a coffee in a

Coffee here in Korea is everywhere. You can find a coffee shop in nearly every street. And also cups of coffee in every hand. Especially in the morning before going to school or to work, people wait precious minutes to get their coffee.

So in my opinion beauty takes up too much space in Korean society.

particularities, especially members of your family, especially YOUR KIDS. But I think that in Korea, they encourage them to have a surgery for them to access a certain life, a certain chance. They want their children to have the beauty privilege and then their life can be easier.

The fact that the highest rank of cosmetic surgery is in Korea is very shocking for my European brain. I guess that the parents who encourage their kids to have a surgery would be considered very bad in France. Because the local point of view is that we have to accept everybody in their

In his texts but also in his actions. That's why he left Sicilia yesterday on a flotilla toward Gaza. He has already took position in the past for the liberation of Palestine.His mobilisation encourages his fans to engage themselves. And at least to get informed about the current political situation

@dzoeger.bsky.social I will talk about Youssef Swatt's. He is a French rapper who won a music competition one year ago. After that he had more and more opportunities to sing in bigger concerts and also festivals. He slowly built himself a fandom online as well as offline. This rapper is very engaged

In my case, I knew that my first thing to do in South Korea would be to go to an Olive Young, because I read #TrueBeauty and I really wanted to understand this vibe. Also I enjoy eating #tteokbokki, #tanghulu, or #ramen as seen in #K-popDemonsHunters.

and you will recognize some words and sentences. You also recognize their tones and habits. And then you begin to connect to the culture.You may want to try the food they are eating in the K-drama, or to listen to the music they like.

How does your popular culture consumption connect to your process of learning an Asian language?
For example if you watch K-dramas from France, you won’t have the translation most of the time. So you watch it in korean with subtitles. More and more your ears will get used to the language,

In this article we can understand how a young athlete can be a hope for a hole nation. #AnSe-young won a gold medal at the 2024 Olympics. This badminton player is described as someone who made history. Indeed, her victory hasn't been seen in South Korea for 28 years.

But in reality, quite every Asian characters are very clichés in this film.
For instance, this quote is full of stereotypes : O-Ren Ishii: You may not be able to fight like a Samurai, but you can at least die like a Samurai.
This reinforces the Western perception, and directly orientalism.
#KillBill

Either in the way the character of O-Ren Ishi is built (she is literaly the leader of a gang, dressed in a kimono, with chopsticks in her hair), or in the way the plot is done (a white American woman destroys an entire Japanese gang army with the skills an old Asian man taught her).

In the film Kill Bill (made by Quentin Tarantino, an American director), a part of the story takes place in Japan.
We can count many many stereotypes.

Personally, the way #Kpop recently touched me the most was throught the song JUMP from #BlackPink. Including techno codes in their song, they arrived to spread their culture to persons who didn't know a single detail about Kpop. #Ilovethissong.

I totally agree. In my opinion, friendship and well-being in general should be a central concern at school. Students could simply be equal no matter what are they studying. But of course respect doesn't have to be forget !!

@dzoeger.bsky.social

Shows like Kdrama are not just entertainment, it is also a way to understand how people from Korea do think or how do they act ?
