No. You want to get the man to cook for YOU. That is better. |

I wish and believe you and your husband will be very happy forever.
And hopely it happens to me too. lol
As a korean man, in my opinion, if i give you a little advice - Most parents
think that western foods are unhealthy. - I know it's not true at all. But all
of western food they know is pizza, coke, hamburger. And they would
worry about foods because their son got married with western girl. So if
you can make at least a really easy korean food - kimchi jjigae, doinjang
jjigae - parents would feel safe for their son and be happy and very proud
of you. As a daughter-in-law would be nice to get love from your husband's
parents, isn't it? |
If its such a big fricken deal why doesn't the guy learn to cook this shit for himself instead of expecting his mom...errr i mean wife to do it?? I've lived on my own for the past 5 years and have NEVER had a girl make me a meal (unless you count the adjummas at restaurants).
What the hell is a fairycat anyways??
Where the *beep* did all those other posts go?
I'm angered |

You must erase all aspects of Korean society and culture from his brain. Scrub that shit out like the pan of rotten taco meat in the bottom of your sink.
If you're lucky he won't be one of those Korean guys. |

 I've just started dating a wonderful Korean guy and it has been great so far. I am hoping that I will be as lucky as many of the ladies on this board, and get to keep him. (I am completely smitten).
I do have one good friend who is from Australia, and married to a Korean man, who is one of the kindest people I have ever met. But this certainly seems to be a rare match.
It's nice to see Western women sharing their experiences with Korean men. All I ever hear is talk about Western guys and Korean gals.
I am curious, how did you ladies meet your current husbands? Have you ran into any big cultural problems that made it really difficult for you to continue your relationships? Please share. ^^ |

| I do all the cooking for my wife and I. We both like to do it, but I get home an hour earlier, so I won the job by default. She got the short straw and has to do the dishes. I don't have to scrub a single pot or pan, and her family and friends all think I'm a saint! Mother-in-law phones every night and asks "what did he cook tonight"? Her married friends from work all have to go home and do the cooking and the cleaning. |

Riverboy, you hungover today? Your spelling's gone to rot!
Geez, I've just opened myself up for extreme criticism -- better check this one over before I press submit!
Anyway... I never thought it would happen to me. I was planning on getting the heck out of this country (I had a serious love/hate relationship with Korea -- fortunately the love side is winning now -- most of the time!). It was highly inconvenient timing, as I was just a few months before world tour and then home and WHAM KABLAMMY BOOM, I fell right in love.
BTW, I'm not ugly either.
BTW fairycat, you're not wrong about learning how to make a few Korean dishes. My husband also learned how to make some of the foods I love (Korean and italian) just the way I love them. Your post did sound a little sexist, but then again you were pointing out how Korean parents would feel and there's no doubt that most of them are quite sexist!!! |

I was completely smitten too, and still am!!!
I hate to admit it, but  my husband was one my students (in a non-graded conversation class). Yes, there have been SERIOUS cultural differences, but we're both tolerant people and have handled them quite smoothly in the long run! How did you meet your boyfriend? |

| I know a couple western women who married Korean guys -- one my closest friend & the other my daughter, & both continue happy with their mates. Stereotypes are made to be broken. Some Korean males I've befriended are very open-minded & worldly, more than I can say for some posters here. |
