So, we're all used to those Korean questions
Are you married?
Are you american?
Can you eat kimchi?
-But sometimes Koreans go way off the deep end. So share your crazy inane (I don't mean 4 seasons stuff either) Korean questions that are so rude, so crazy, or just make you go WTF Shocked
-My newest one is
"Do you hit women when you are drunk?" asked by a 45 year old korean female english teacher at a school dinner. I'm glad I could say no, but I wished I had said yes just to see the reaction...

Or downed your soju and given her a smack.

I sometimes get those odd taxi drivers who start with the boring questions "Where are from?" "Are you married?" "Do you like Korean women?" then it goes all Borat, "You like sex?" "You have sex with Korean women?". At which point I ask if they have a daughter or if their wife is busy.

{This conversation was conducted entirely in Korean.}

Taxi Driver: You know, it's just not possible for you foreigners to speak Korean understandably.
Me: Let's try this, then: Pull over. The ride's over and you just lost a cross-town fare.

Should've reminded him that one outfit in Korea got a huge fine last year for sexual harassment.
