Weird
Hahaha….thank you so much. This has made my row with my bf less sad.
hey, good blog!
Only a mama’s boy would spend so much time thinking about what his mom likes and dislikes.
That was hilarious… but got the link from The Korean’s blog two weeks ago…
Best comment on that site is:

“a korean from germany said…
I am from germany and i can tell you, even here in good old germany, korean moms are the same.
I think i can top every story here:
in germany, every KM is a nurse. So one time, i had to get a blood test because i was ill. i told my mom, i would get it at a doctors, no problem. she insisted, she could get it from a hospital for free. i told her, at the doctors, it is also free, since we have insurance. she told me, at her hospital, the blood test is better, i told her, well, the doctor will send the blood test to the hospital anyways.
in the end, i threatened her not to get a blood test forever and damn my illness, i dont care if i die (that i-will-die-thing works both ways.. did you know? took me 15 years to figure that out).
well… she had to leave for work at 6, she came into my room, i was sleeping of course, stabbed me with a syringe in my leg and started pumping blood. man.. i was sooo pissed the whole day…
seriuosly.. who does things like that? who is able do a thing like that? only korean moms come into my mind. no one else, right???
but i figured out how to fight back: i use all the things my mom did to me the last 30 years on her and it works great!!! of course, i feel a little bit ashamed when i do things like the i-dont-care-if-i-die-thing on her… but hey… she taught me. I even do some of KM-things at work and it is great how i can manipuilate all those stupid germans.

WangKon936, check out this one (taken from the comments):

“My korean(lives in korea still) mother-in-law told my wife that to cure constipation if she put a black bean on her belly button and put a bandaid over it that it would cure her constipation. My wife actually did it since her mom told her to do it. I laughed so hard, I actually took a picture of it. But the funny thing was on the first day nothing happened, but on the 2nd day she had mad gas, then on the 3rd day she took a dump. My wife actually used to have crazy constipation where she couldn’t go for like 3 weeks. So for her to go in 3 days was actually fast.

Oh yeah?
My Korean mom told me to finish all my samgyupsal because bacon grease is good for my digestion!
I’m not gonna take up her advice and my cardiovascular system thanks me!
#10,
Your mom is loopy. It’s kimchi that is good for your digestion. Every self-respecting ajumma and almoni knows that.
