This week Jun and Daniel dive into design differences between Korea and America, from social media and advertising to architecture and mobile apps. The hosts explore how and why Korean designs tend to be text-heavy and informative, while American designs focus more on visuals and artistic impact. Topics include YouTube thumbnails, movie posters, advertisements, mobile app UI/UX, building design, and book covers. They discuss how cultural values like collectivism, risk-averseness, and utilitarianism influence Korean design choices, while American designs often prioritize individual interpretation and bold statements.

If you're interested in learning how clickbait, movie posters, mobile apps, and architecture differ between Korea and America, tune in to hear Daniel and Jun discuss all this and more! Also in this episode, Daniel and Jun teach each other English vocabulary, discuss the various brands of different countries, and make fun of Korean apartment naming conventions.
