I was caught red-handed. Like a kid stealing cookies from the cookie jar, my pops caught me in the middle of the act. According to my father, there are apparently 3 big lies that Koreans commit:
1. Business owners declaring they're giving you the lowest price or a discount.
Truth: Korean business owners never give you a discount as much as you hope to believe..that sale is never final!
2. Young women declaring they won't or don't want to get married.
Truth: Women who say this are actually the first ones to go (i.e., my sister)!
3. The elderly declaring they're going to die any day now.
Truth: This is usually said by the 80yr old grandmother still gardening or hoeing in the yard, but go on strong until they're 90 something.
Can you guess which one I committed?
