I was sure the answer was going to be:
a. they are smiling
or
b. they are not wearing matching clothes. |

| What's wrong? No one is positioning for a ddong-chim strike, but if you look closely, the kid on the left is clearly thinking about it. |

| Speaking of smiling in photos...why don't Koreans do it most of the time? Went to a wedding this weekend, and in all the photos you'd think someone just died. |

Weddings are supposed to be serious occasions, there's a superstition that if a bride smiles on her wedding day something or other bad will happen. Seems to be dying out now, the wedding I went to was all smiles. |

I believe the superstition is that if the bride smiles, she won't have a boy child.  |

The 'v' on his shirt was the start of it all maybe? |

They look like boys. Look like they've been out having a great time.
Instead of the pansy... "But I'll get dirty." That there is today...
Wonder what they're doing now?
I see the photo and I reckon the kid in the middle with the "V" on his shirt is a General Manager or something. |

I dunno...I've taught tons of kids here and they come to (hogwon) class absolutely filthy, as if they'd been rolling around on the street right before class.
I think that pansy stuff starts around university, at least at my current university it does. (i mean, guys wearing make up and scarves? Don't let the North Koreans see that shiz-nit, or they'll be here in a heartbeat.) |
