For Those Of You That Are Not Korean, How Do Your Parents React When They Find Out You Listen To Kor

[Guest kneepops]

my aunt said its a waste of money buying CDs posters and the HB concert ticket for **** you dont understand which i found very heart breakin the way she said it but i smiled at her then went back to listening to music hehe but i didnt want to talk to her anymore geezz people these days

my parents dont care really they are the ones who drew me into the kpop world hehe with all the asian dramas and the random asian music i got my mom into hip-hop hehe

[Guest hellobby]

My parents don't car either, aha.

They watch Korean dramas on TV too! But, it's dubbed, but, yeah, you know, they love the drama still. xD

Pretty awesome. x]

[Guest -pakou-]

My parents asks me why I listen to them.

But I just say that I <3 Korean music!

They like Korean musics too, except for my dad, he gets annoyed. LOL.

Otherwise, my mom thinks Korean music is nice. (certain ones.)

[Guest 크라운유리]

I'm Vietnamese and I watch Korean drama and listen to Korean music all the time.

My parents don't mind. My mom usually watch Hong Kong drama (the one with the Viet dubbed) and I watch that with her.

But she doesn't watch Korean drama with me, she just thinks its normal. And she doesn't mind that I listen to Korean music.

oh yeah those vietnamese dubbed, my parents use to watch them too (i'm vietnamese). i still watch them online XD

[Guest apeq]

and i realy enjoy it even now..

at first my mom really annoying with it..

but..

because me and my sisters really enjoy that kind of song..

'we can look for the translation at the internet'

[barbie.]

Parents don't really say anything about it. <3

[Guest SaLina]

ahahah my parents are like "why are you listening/watching stuff u dont understand?!" and i'm like to them "i cna't understand mandrian but i still listen to them " (i'm canto) eheheh "and you don't say anything about that!! "

[Guest x_twinkletoes]

gosh, you guys are damn lucky.

im like, hiding my whole asianlovingobsessedscene away from them.

my parents are strict when it comes to education,

so they basically think im doing hours & hours of homework everyday.

i hide the fact that i watch youtube videos, & even go on the forums.

my mom saw pictures of the asianhotties on the screen last time,

& she thought i was talking to perverts.

o________________o ""

i have my earphones though, so they cant hear anything.

its been more than a year since ive hidden it from them.

& i know its gonna be a matter of time before they find out.

My mother is also a Korean freak like me. She watches dramas, but she doesn't really listen to Korean songs; most of them are only theme songs featured in Korean dramas. I'm a big DBSK and Suju lover, and she even said things like... "Oh, so these people are my future son-in-laws?" Hahaha... I even asked her which member does she like and so.

My father doesn't watch Korean dramas and doesn't listen to Korean songs. He teases me very often as well when I'm watching DBSK and Suju. He would go, "OMG! Spending her time watching handsome guys again..." He would also imitate them dancing! Hahaha... He only has comments when I watch Japanese dramas.

[Guest igli]

my dad doesn't even know HAHAHAHAH XD

but my mom knows and she even has Korean and Japanese songs in her MP3 XD

P.S she likes LEXY's music and Hero's and Yunho's looks XD

[Guest aznshorty]

My parents don't care, but they look at me funny.

They're like "You understand korean?You barely even know chinese."

Well, no duh!but who cares, right? it's called subtitles.

lately, they don't give a damn.

[Guest cyanine]

my dad kinda gets annoyed at the fact that i <3 korean more than my own language..

my mum dun really care as long i dun play my songs in her car but wen driving my car,nobody can say anything abt the song being played..hehe

[HYPERGURLY^^]

my parents started it... they started watching kdramas... then got me hooked up... hahaha now they quit and i gone crazy over them!! heehee

[Guest michellek]

My mom just says "Do you even understand what they're saying?" Me: "No. But who cares." Well I'm Chinese and I can barely understand Chinese myself too, so same goes..

[Guest yukihira]

My mom doesn't mine but she understands what they're saying (She knows Korean). I successfully got her to be an Epik High fan. LOL

[taintedtears]

they tease me, whenever i wear a different style of clothes or change my hairstyle they'd be like WOW IS THAT A KOREAN TREND?

what's worst is for my cousin, her BF is korean and everyone's like to her, HERE HAVE SOM KOREAN NOODLES, YOU MUST LIKE IT

it's hilarious, my aunty tried making KImbap and forced my cousin to eat it.

[simplii_forevah]

my brother makes fun of me >>

[Guest blessy_04]

my mom, sis and i watched k-dramas together.

but when it comes to korean music they asked me: "why listen when you can't understand?"

Well i dont mind. I love k-music.

[Guest towkekon]

Ever since my mom saw 3 Iron and JSA ... she has fallen in love with Korean Movies ....

With me watching movies , nobody ever comments on things like that ... its just another movie wherever its from ... So parents actually have a problem with what you watch ? Porn , ok I get it ..... but other stuff ?

What is there to react to ?

[Guest lilmariah35]

my mum thinks it's weird but it doesn't bother her, my sister is into kdramas and twdramas.... my brother used to make fun of me but now he doesn't talk about it!! one day he asked me if i can let him see a horror drama!! XD but he didn't watch it!! coz' i don't know any horror drama XD
