1. [+1188, -13] It's not Adidas, it's Samseon ㅋㅋㅋㅋ

2. [+795, -49] No matter which country it is, Korean people always wear hiking clothes wherever they go

3. [+469, -25] That oppa mode though

4. [+46, -1] Who the heck started the trend of mushroom hair?

5. [+39, -8] Korean women wear thick makeup? They must've never been to Japan

6. [+36, -2] Koreans definitely dress very well. Even if they don't talk at all, I still can tell Korean people, especially in Southeast Asia. If someone is dressed extremely neatly, they're most likely to be Korean.

7. [+36, -5] Polo shirt with collars up = 100% Korean. When I was in Australia, I guessed every Korean right.

8. [+34, -4] We're also the only ones that wear fridge pants and a brand bag together
