Gyopo Survival Guide

Why did Korean people wear masks on a daily basis even before the pandemic? What is a forbidden fashion statement in Korea that’s not in the States? (Also, clarification: when we discuss wearing whatever, we’re referring to general public and not specific environments such as the workplace because work attire is a different story.!)

Shorter episode this week! Favorite holidays in Korea? How are the same holidays spent differently in different countries?

Panda Express, Kettle Chips, Spinach Dip, and Trulys. My-chew, Paris Baguette, K(orean)FC, and more. Get all the “인싸” recz from Jackie and Jenn. Oh, they also discuss the difference between Korean and American cheetos if you’re interested.

Where’s the best place to go out in Seoul? What’s illegal in the States that’s not in Korea and vice versa? Responsible drinking, drunk people that fetishize foreigners, meeting Jane the Stripper, etc.

Jackie and Jenn are cousins. Jackie and Jenn are Korean Americans currently living in South Korea. What does being bicultural mean? Uncomfortable situations they’ve faced in both Korea and the United States, struggling to find a sense of home, and accepting change.
