One of the missionaries at the baptism told me to sample his favorite Korean treat. I tasted it, turned to him, and asked, "How long have you been in Korea?" We had a good laugh, but in reality, I loved the Asian cultures. My dad has picked up a few sparkly ties. My mom splurged on a silver purse. Ryan got himself a skinny, knit tie. I admit, I even purchased a pair of stretch corduroy leggings, and wished I had purchased the jean ones as well. It rubs off on you. We quickly began bowing at everyone we encountered, saying On-yong-ha-say-oh, or Kan-som-nee-da. Even Olive learned to say it by the end. Comparing the differences between Japan and Korea was fascinating: the traditional Korean dress, a Hanbok, and the traditional Japanese dress, a Kimono, their everyday fashion, their interaction with us, and the foods they eat. Anthropology has always intrigued me. One day I'd like to experience other Asian cultures to have even more of a comparison.
