VIP Class Notes (Lindsay)

Japanese guy is fashion. They are good at mix style. Because there are a lot of American, so Japanese guys become handsome because of mixed. But recently, because of the virus, Japanese not only the guys, they are stressed because of the suicide higher than other country. I heard Japanese guys when they finish up work, they didn’t go home immediately. They go to Mini bar for a drink. I like the good looking and fashion style but i don’t like their lifestyle.

I like the Japanese fashion and good looking, but I don’t like their stressful lifestyle. Japanese guys are very good looking and good at mixing styles because of the influence of American style  (outcomer style). However, the Japanese are living in a stressful life, especially during the pandemic (Covid virus) their suicide rate is higher. Their work are always stressful so they don’t go home directly from work. They choose to go for a drink in the mini bar. 

I like Korean actors from drama. Kong Liu is the main character of GUI GUAI. I think the character more than the person because he can do everything and good looking. He is tall and in good shape. He is hot. I don’t like normal Korean guys. Korean guys doesn’t do housework and they are manipulating (controlling). It’s not their problem but my problem. We have different opinions about lifestyle, work, relationship, family. They have strong opinions on the levels between employers and employees. Even they have strong opinions among family. The children need to follow the parents and grandparents, even they are wrong. You can see the situation from the vocabularies because they have Jin Yu. It’s a tradition of Korea. It is good to show respect but not showing it too much from their body language.

I like Korean actors but i don’t like Korean tradition and work culture. Kong Liu is my favorite Korean actor because he is good looking and in good shape. When he was casting GUI guai, i love the character he played Because he can do everything. So that made him so charming/ attractive. However, i don’t like Korean’s opinions about levels at work and family. At work, though they respect the upper level, they overreact from the body language to their managers. They must follow with the managers even though the managers are wrong. The same as what they have done in the family.
