actually that's not thin in South Korean standards.. girls in S. Korea are thinner because the society doesn't like chubby girls. my wife is 5ft 2 98lb.

Yes, I know a lot of Asian people are short and thin, but that traffic-cop girl, to me, looked especially thin. Stories of hunger and food shortages in NK are legion, primarily because the government spends so much on the military and nuclear programs, while neglecting the general population.

no. people in foreign countries always ask me if i'm chinese or japanese first..
anyway language is same, but they have very thick accents. but we understand each other. think of it as austrailian english vs. american english.
we are so close, yet very far.
