Not Netflix Korea – First Post

출처 : 허프포스트코리아(https://www.huffingtonpost.kr)

 Hey there! 👋

I’m JH, just your average Korean dude who wants to show the real Korea to the world.

Sure, YouTube’s packed with Korea videos, but I’m not exactly camera‑friendly. 😅
Writing? That’s my lane.

So this blog is where I’ll drop fun stories about Korean life: food runs at 2 AM, weird slang, random cultural quirks—stuff Netflix never shows.

But it’s not a one‑way street. I’m dying to know:

  • What are you most curious about in Korea?

  • Heard anything wild or surprising about Korean culture? 

Hit the comments and let’s chat!
Thanks for stopping by, and stick around for more crazy Korean stories.

— JH 🇰🇷

It’s not a national obsession. But on Korean livestreams, it’s a different story—you’ll see “food fighter” challenges like eating 10 or even 20 packs in one sitting, all for virtual donations. Sometimes, the viewers suffer more than the hosts. 😎 Personally Speaking... I’m actually one of those Koreans who love ...
