You know that you have been living in Korea for too long when :

      I recently came across a post  titled
" You know that you have been in Korea for too long when ..." 
 I feel that some very vital points were left off the list and  as this year marks my third year in Korea I feel that I am justified in writing my own list. :



 So here we go :  You know that you have been  living in Korea for  too long  when :


1. Soju has become your form of water.

      2. You leave  articles  out of   sentences.

3. "Uh"  has become a newly coined suffix that you add to the end of every word. 



4. You own not 1 not 2 but three animal onesies.

5. Breaking it down and practicing the latest K pop dance moves in your room has become part of your daily routine .
.
6. Leaving the  clubs at 8am  and eating  dalk galbi  for breakfast is standard .

7.Spending your Friday nights in bed watching Korean drama and eating fried chicken is  your idea of  a perfect self date. 

8.You have no idea whats happening on CNN or in the world but you could write a thesis about the K pop drama and scandals .

9. Ending up in Norebangs at 3 am in the morning is a weekly occurrence



10.Being told " You are glamour" by Korean guys  no longer  makes you mad.

11. Wearing your animal onesies in public happens too often .

12.Your sticker collection is greater than it was when you were 5  years old .

13.Kakao  chocolate rolls are part of your staple diet.

14.Anything branded with Kakao makes your heart flutter.


15. Your ultimate goal is no longer trying to be cool and sexy but as cute and ridiculous possible.


16. Getting plastic surgery is now on your bucket list .

17. Throwing up the peace sign and " being a flower" has become a natural reflex in photographs.

18. You own a selfie stick

19. No picture is uploaded without making  your eyes bigger and  your face smaller .
But how can you really tell that you have been in Korea  for too long , well

20 .You only have eyes for Korean  flower boys  and in your mind  marrying Lee min Ho seems  like a legitimate  possibility  ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ




Korea forever
