Welcome to our new audio series called“TTMIK Culture Ramblings”! In each episode, you will listen to a roundtable discussion, in English, between people who were born and raised in Korea and someone with a different perspective. These 100% real and unscripted laid-back conversations cover various topics related to Korea and Korean culture. If you have any topics that you’d like us to discuss, be sure to tell us in the episode’s comments section! 

In our very first episode, Hyunwoo, Hyojin, and Stephanie discuss“personal space” and how it is a relatively new concept in Korea. They also share past personal experiences while on the subway, bus, standing in line, or being in crowded places and how they react. Join us and learn more about Korean culture!
