I've been curious about this for a while. For all of you who are married to a Korean woman: Does your wife give you a "honey do" list for the weekends?

When I used to work in The States, I'd ask my male coworkers what plans they had for the weekend. The married ones would deeply exhale and say, "My wife has a list for me."

If you're a foreign woman married to a Korean: Do you have a "honey do" list for your husband?

My mom sort of does that to my dad back home. It's usually stuff she can't do... work on the physical structure of the house, fix something, etc.

My Korean husband doesn't get a list, he just gets nagged until he gets it done. Laughing

Must suck being married to a nagging hag.

Please explain.

I'm especially curious about this issue, and have been wanting to ask how many times per week it's OK for a married guy to hang out with his pals. And how late on a weekday or weekend?

Sometimes when my wife tells me about a family gathering on a weekend - with her drunk uncle who sings old Korean songs in my ear and has been repeating his pattented "English, good!" expression for 7 years, now - I consider it a "to do" list with one item.
