with all the splattering Sam Gyeop Sal grease or flying Gochujang, those once sharp looking pants become something you'd barely wear indoors on a Sunday, usually in a matter of weeks.

Thank you.
"Wair"? Misspelled twice?

From www.dictionary.com ....
1 entry found for wair.
wair
\Wair\, n. (Carp.) A piece of plank two yards long and a foot broad. --Bailey.
Maybe a result of the dubious practice of "verbing" a noun? Why do people make khaki two yards long by one foot wide?
No, I don't know why they do that either. |

| That's what the aprons hanging on the coat rack are for, plus the laughs produced when you put one on are cheaper than muttering two words of lousy Korean. |
