This week Jun and Daniel dive into fashion trends and cultural differences between Korea and America. From men’s hairstyles to women’s modesty norms, our hosts explore how fashion intersects with cultural values, generational divides, and societal expectations. They discuss topics like Korea's recent trend toward athleisure wear, the popularity of certain global brands, and how beauty standards influence fashion choices. The conversation also touches on the rise of Korean fashion brands globally, the influence of K-pop on fashion trends, and the differences in shopping behaviors between the two countries.

If you're interested in hearing about Daniel's journey with Korean hairstyles, Jun's observations on American fashion stereotypes, or their thoughts on luxury brands and fast fashion, tune in to hear Daniel and Jun discuss all this and more! Also in this episode, Daniel shares his favorite clothing brand, Jun explains the origins of Musinsa, and both hosts attempt to make sense of sizing conventions across different countries.
