Five Questions about Korea on Quora by the Korea-Curious
Welcome to the Quora Questions Series, where I answer five random, recent questions related to South Korea from Quora, the Q&A forum website. 
In last week’s post, I answered questions about if Korea has milk, how did South Korea become so rich, GFriend idol group, if you need vaccines in Korea, and how women tourists should dress. 
This week, I found five more questions about Korean holiday Chuseok, opinions of English language, Disney in Korea, and Korean translations of “Have a good day!” and “Korea.”
Below are five questions from Quora in December 2019. (You can click on the questions respectively to see what other Quorans had to say.)
Tumblr media
The first question from Quora is about one of the biggest holidays of South Korea, called Chuseok. 
Question 1: What’s Chuseok in South Korea?
Chuseok (추석) is the traditional Korean holiday similar to “Fall Harvest” or “Thanksgiving” on the 15th day of the 8th month of the lunar calendar on the full moon, or usually at the end of September. Chuseok is a family holiday when Koreans will eat many traditional foods and play traditional games with their family members. This year Chuseok will be observed from Wednesday, September 30 to Friday, October 2, 2020. 
(My source: Public Holidays, December 2019) 
The second question is about the English language in Korea. 
Q2: Is English viewed as a “cool” language by Korean in South Korea?
Did you know that many Koreans learn Chinese and English? I think knowing English is viewed as “essential” for getting a good job in the future and one of the best ways to connect with the Western world’s economies and cultures. 
Many Koreans listen to American pop music, watch western movies on Netflix, and wear English brands.  
Students in South Korea must take an English exam on advanced vocabulary, grammar rules, and essays before they graduate. Because of this big English exam, many parents enroll their children into English after-school private  “hagwons” academies to learn more vocabulary and grammar rules. 
In my personal opinion, I think many Koreans wish to know French, Spanish, Chinese, or Russian languages; however, English seems to be much more common and has the sentence forms as those languages. 
The third question is about Disney’s popularity in Korea.
Q3: Is Disney popular in Korea?
Yes, Disney is popular. Koreans mostly love Disney movies, characters, princesses, merchandise, and of course, Disney Land is well-known too. However, there is no Disney amusement park or Disney Plus in Korea as of 2019. 
Koreans love the Marvel movies, especially the Avengers: Endgame was super popular in 2019.  
This week, many Korean children, elderlies, and families will definitely go watch Frozen 2 when it releases in movie theaters this week, and then sing all the songs. 
The last questions are about Korean language translations. 
Q4: How do you say “have a nice day” in South Korea?
The most popular way to say “have a nice day” in Korean is “좋은 하루 보내세요.”
좋은 (joh-eun) means good/nice
하루 (hah-roo) means a/one day
 보내세요 (bo-nae-se-yo) means to send/have
좋은 하루 보내세요!
(My Source: Talk to Me in Korean, December 2019) 
Q5. What is the English translation of the word “Korea”?
I love answering this question. 
Koreans call their country as 대한민국. A simpler and conversational form would be 한국 Hangook, which means the nation of Korea. 
국 at the end of the country usually means “nation” or “country” so USA would be 미국, England is 영국, Thailand is 태국. 
And 한국어 means the Korean nation language. 
Hope this information was useful! 좋은 하루 보내세요! 
What questions or comments do you have about South Korea?

South Korean Banks Formulate Crypto Business Plans, but Lack Crypto Laws
Tumblr media
South Korean banks have articulated the crypto business plans but fail to go public at the moment as they lack regulatory clarity, bankers claim in South Korea.  Hangook IIbo, a Korean-language daily newspaper quotes some senior official of a South Korean bank saying:  “Banks in South Korea cannot reveal their plans for crypto assets at this stage. We are currently just applying blockchain technology to banking processes and applications.” Another bank official states in the same newspaper section: "Financial institutions are making technological progress with blockchain, but there are complications when it comes to commercialization due to the fact that there are no crypto laws in South Korea.” The comments arose from a recent report that mentioned more than 50% South Korean financial institutions and banks are seeing the launch of blockchain-related services on a serious note and have even started with the development of blockchain-powered solutions. The same South Korean daily newspaper posted the findings of a Korean Development Institute (KDI) survey of 90 banks and other financial institutions. KDI reported that around 54% are already planning to move into the blockchain development or are in the midst of its adoption plans. Even though banks remain conservative in their strategy towards crypto assets, it is worth remembering that numerous South Korean financial organizations were optimist for crypto prior to the government’s partial crypto clampdown in Dec 2017-Jan 2018.

Backstory: His Name
Every day the child would stare up at the Sun. Every day those rays of heavenly light would bore into his retinas, leaving curiosity when others would be left with blindness. His habits changed when he and his mother made the move from Seoul, South Korea to Seattle, Washington, where it rained almost every day, but when the Sun did come out in Seattle, it was brighter than it was in Seoul, unobscured by smog and dust. 
So, when he was five years old, when it wasn’t raining, he held up a golden pot, usually used for cooking instant ramen. “엄마! 이거보세요!” He hollered over to his mother, telling her to look at his find.
She turned her head from her cooking to look at him, holding up this pot as if it were a hidden treasure that he unearthed from their kitchen cabinet. Her son was not named yet, he hasn’t made any friends his age yet, and she wondered how he would fit into this world. It wasn’t neglect, it wasn’t indifference, it was fear. She knew the power that names could carry and the power of those who wanted to tear her son down.
“뭔데?” - What is it? 
“이거, 해처럼 보이지 않아요?” - Doesn’t this look like the sun?
He angled the pot to have its bottom reflecting the sunlight pouring in from the window. His mother cringed as the reflected light burned into her eyes, leaving an afterimage, but then she began to laugh. He started to laugh too. This wasn’t the first time he threw light at her eyes. Any reflective surface was a weapon in his hands.
“엄마 눈 부시는게 그렇게 재미있어?” - Is it that fun to shine light into my eyes?
“응, 재미있어요.” - Yes, it is fun.
She wondered if he would keep that smile when he grew up, when the world would crash down on him. She could only hope that he would. And so, as her smile began to fade, she finally took the first step.
“아들.” - Son.
“네?” - Yes?
He lowered the pot.
“이름 이라는 것을 알지?” - You know about names, right?
“네.” - Yes.
“아들, 이름은 되게 중요한거야. 사람의 첫인상은 얼굴인데 마지막 인상은 이름이야. 사람을 오랫동안 알다가 갑자기 그 사람이 사라지면, 기억나는게 이름 밖에 없어.” - Son, names are very important. A person’s first impression is their face, but their last impression is their name. If a person suddenly disappears after you’ve known them for a long time, then the only thing you’ll remember about them is their name.”
She bent her knees and leveled her eyes with his, and he listened intently because he suspected that this was important. 
“엄마는 너 한테 이름을 주고 싶었는데, 무서웠어.” - I wanted to give you a name, but I was scared.
She thought about what would come next after this. She would introduce him to her parents, she would enroll him into elementary school, and maybe she could schedule his 100th Day Celebration (백일) 1725 days late. 
“이제는 나이도 커지고 곧 있으면 학교 갈텐데, 아들도 이름 있어야지?” - Now, son, you’re getting older, and soon, you’ll be going to school. You, also, should have a name, right?
She thought deeply for a moment, looking back on the five years she spent with her child, five years of moving houses and losing jobs, of starting new ones and then being uprooted once more, and of illegally relocating to a country that was foreign to her, unable to speak the native tongue. The one constant in all of this was his happiness, his ability to find humor and light in everything that he saw. 
And now her mind arrived to today as tears welled up in her eyes. The safest that they’ve been in years. The scent of Seattle’s rain helped to mask the scent of his demigod blood, and the restaurant underneath their apartment that cooked MSG-Empowered Kimchi Stew gave them enough cover to settle down. She smiled once more behind her tears as she thought about their fortune to find such a place. Maybe he could finally live a normal life.
“너의 이름은 ‘광호’야, ‘한광호.’ ‘광’은 ‘빛’이라는 뜻 이고, ‘호’는 ‘냄비’라는 뜻 이야. 우리 성 ‘한’은 ‘한국’에 들어간 ‘한’이고.” - Your name is “Gwang Ho,” “Gwang Ho Han.” “Gwang” means “light” and “Ho” means “pot.” Our last name, “Han,” is the same “Han” in “Hangook.”
His name meant “shiny pot,” to harken back to this day, this time, when he laughed about shining light from a pot into his mother’s eyes and when they were safe and sound.
“항상 밝고 웃는 우리 광호, 어느 날 너가 진짜 힘든일을 겪을거야. 그 날이 올 때 너의 이름을 기억해. 오늘을 기억해.” - My bright and happy Gwang Ho, one day you’ll face a terrible experience. When that day comes, remember your name. Remember today.
She choked on her own breath as his hand came up to her cheek to wipe her tears, his other hand held tight onto the pot. The tears kept pouring, but it wasn’t the first time that she cried like this, and it wasn’t going to be the last. Overwhelmed and not wanting to show him her face, she hugged her son, whispering his name under her breath as if to make up for not saying it for five years. Gwang Ho, Gwang Ho, Han Gwang Ho..
He didn’t understand his mother’s hardships at the time, and he definitely didn’t fully understand why she was crying, but he knew that he always had the power to make it all stop. When her hug loosened, he knew it was his chance. He freed his other arm and used it to plop the pot onto his head, like a hat, but the weight of lifting the pot over his head was heavier than he expected and it made a satisfying dinging sound. He let out a yelp of pain, and his mother let go of him in surprise, but he had to follow through with his joke.
“엄마! 나 광호야!” - Mom! I’m Gwang Ho! (I’m a shiny pot.)
She.. didn’t really know how to react to that, but she chuckled at him as she wiped away her tears. After she finished, she took the pot off of his head.
“아프겠다.” - That must’ve hurt.
“엄마, 나 배고파요.” - Mom, I’m hungry.
“라면 먹을까?” - Do you want some ramen?
“네!” - Yes!
Gwang Ho happily sat on the chair as his mother brought the ramen to him, in the same pot that he was named after. He took his training chopsticks in hand and said, “잘 먹겠습니다!”
As he took his first bite, a bright light shined above his head, the symbol of a glowing Sun, so bright that it lit up the entire kitchen, as if a star was born, but Gwang Ho was unfazed. His mother gasped, immediately looking out the window and staring up at the Sun, trying to interpret this sign. Trying to remember his face, his smile, his laugh. Trying her best to see what her son saw when he blinded himself every day. But it never came, all she could remember was his name. Apollo.
Gwang Ho stopped mid-chew and looked confused, asking her what was happening now.
She turned back to him as the symbol began to fade away, trying to act off her surprise and bring herself back down to Earth, but she realized how familiar his face looked. How familiar his eyes and his smile looked. And it took her a moment to reply.
“아--아니야, 그냥, 너 보니까, 누가 생각났어.” - I--it’s nothing, just, looking at you reminded me of someone is all.

Reflection
I recently arrived in Chicago! And I was right. It didn’t fully hit me that I’m moving back to Chicago until I actually got to Chicago. And now I know. This is my life for the next 16 weeks. And I am glad that it is. I talked and bonded with Marlena today over pizza. I should ask to venmo her for the food tomorrow, if she has venmo. I also need to deposit the $100 from grandma. I know I should carry some cash on me but honestly, I think I would rest a lot better knowing that I have $550 in my account instead of $450. And I need to buy my two textbooks that I know I for sure need tomorrow and get everything else in order. I got to draw the month of September, design the new layouts, figure out when my meetings are, what needs to be done, etc etc. I have a lot to accomplish tomorrow. Oh! And I need to buy the two small rulers for myself and my sister. I can’t believe she never realized that I both stole and lost her ruler, HAHAHAHA. But I have most everything that I need to do written in my journal so hopefully that is enough. I still need to figure things out with Hangook and definitively decide whether or not I want to stay on board. Because even though “The Squad” is no longer a student organization, there’s still a lot to do and honestly, I’m a lot more passionate about that than Hangook. But I also don’t want Hangook to totally die because they lack leadership and keep putting all the pressure on their advisor instead of putting in the work themselves. But it is also not my job to do their dirty work and pick up the slack. It’s on them. I shouldn’t feel the need to step in and fix it. If I do everything, then they’ll never learn.
But back to Marlena! I didn’t really know what to expect or how to act but things have fallen back into place and I’m really glad that they have. Before, I think I was a lot more uncomfortable with talking about sex and drugs and alcohol and parties. But now, because of Andrew, I’m a lot more open to it. And I’m still not entirely sure whether that’s a good or bad thing. But it’s how it is now. I think it’s good in the sense that I’m more open minded but bad that I’m more prone to temptation now. I just gotta keep myself accountable! >:D But yeah, I was pretty worried that we wouldn’t be friends anymore since I’m come back to Christ and she leads such a worldly lifestyle. But I referenced my pastors and involvement at church and she was fine with it so, I think it’s okay. I just need to work on leading a more Christlike lifestyle so that she’ll hopefully be influenced by my passion and desire for the Lord and come back and meet Him for the first time. She’s my best friend out here so I do really care about her salvation. I need to decide on my Sunday plans as well. And go to Lakeview a few more times as well as check out the other churches that I’ve heard of. I do want to invest there but… I’m still not positive. It felt more like I was forcing myself to stay more than me actually wanting to. But I was also out of options. So, I’m hoping that I can commit to checking out these other churches and seeing if they’re a better fit. Hopefully. But I also feel like I betrayed Lakeview….who knows?
Oh man, it’s 1:12am here but only 11:12pm there. Or maybe it’s 1:12am there? I think it is. I don’t think my laptop has changed timezones. I was right. I just changed it. It is currently 3:15am here. So I guess it isn’t that surprising that I’m tired after all. I had so much fun with Andrew and David this past summer and now, I find myself constantly excited for him to message me. I don’t think this is a crush thing. I think it’s a stability thing. He was an integral part of me back in high school and I thought I lost that last year. But this summer showed me that I hadn’t. And sure, our dynamic has changed but he’s still my friend. I thought about it on the plane and I think we’re the type of friends that can just freely vent to each other. We can be mad together. We can cry together. We can laugh together. And even though we don’t have a lot of common interests, we’re still there for each other when it matters. I’m sure if we went to the same school it’d be different. But I am glad that he is my friend. He does mean a lot to me, at the end of the day. And I do wish we could’ve spent more time together before I left. I know he only brought sex up to tease me and purposefully make me feel uncomfortable at first but then it became a part of casual conversation and I was still really out of place and uncomfortable. But on the plane ride, I thought about my likes and dislikes sexually and how it could potentially affect my future relationships. I do think it’s a good conversation to have before marriage because what if we aren’t sexually compatible? I have thought a little bit about it before but never to this extent. So I guess I have Andrew to thank for bringing this topic up and making me more comfortable with it. But this has opened up the chance that I won’t be a virigin before marriage. Which is a commitment that I want to keep. Because I committed it to God. Not because it’s right or wrong. But I promised the Lord that I wouldn’t have sex until marriage so that’s what I intend to do. I don’t think I’m against BDSM(?) bondage, basically. Nothing to hardcore or extreme but I think I’m into that “scared and horny” feeling. But to an extent. But if, for example, my hands were chained above my head to the bed frame and I was vulnerable. I think I’d be extremely uncomfortable but also strangely aroused at my inability to do anything. But at the same time, I imagined a scenario where my significant other tried to pretend kidnap me and put me in that situation. I think I’d be waaaay turned off by that. The fear would far outweigh anything else. I would just want to get the heck out of there and leave. Even if I later found out it was all a plan, I would still feel way to terrified. Thinking for even a moment that I could’ve been actually kidnapped and/or raped from my own home. That. Is scary. But consensual? I’m open to the idea.
There was more that I wanted to write in my journal for my entry on the flight today but I really wanted to keep it clean and contained within one page so I didn’t add anything more. But I kind of wish that I did. Maybe while I type it, other things will come back to me.
Oh, back to Marlena though. Right when I got off of the plane, I saw McDonald’s and honestly, my heart kinda sank, knowing that I couldn’t stop by because I had to hurry to the Dwight because Marlena was tired. But I hurried to the baggage claim and irritatedly waited for my bag to come out. And honestly, I don’t know if I was just full of adrenaline or what but once I realized my bag was in front of me, I picked it up by the top handle with one hand like it was nothing and just hurriedly wheeled it to the subway. Everything went fine on the subway but I did realize that I forgot the order of the stops for the blue line. I kind of knew where everything was in relation to each other but my memory was still pretty cloudy. I totally forgot about Jackson. I knew it was Clark but forgot about Washington. But once it hit Monroe, I knew I was two stops away. But I couldn’t remember what was in between. Jackson! I even questioned if there was a stop between Monroe and LaSalle at one point. The stairs weren’t too bad this time and I kept hoping that I chose the exit closest to the Dwight. AND I DID. BUT THEN I FORGOT WHERE THE DWIGHT WAS. I started walking towards the University Center, remembering that the Dwight was nearby. But once I hit Dearborn, I knew I was going the wrong way. So then I google mapped it and honestly, it didn’t really help. But then I spotted the “Park” sign that I know all too well and found my way to the building. But before entering, I noticed that Subway was 24hrs! But I thought Marlena needed to rest more than my hunger so I just decided to go in. But after settling in, she offered to take me to Subway and I happily agreed. So then we went to the Sky Lounge and just talked about her mono and how she’s been dying in more ways than one recently while I ate my Subway sandwich. Then, we decided to order pizza. I was about to add toppings to half the pizza at first but then I asked if it’d be more expensive and immediately retracted. We decided to head to the first floor and talk there until our pizza came. And then we feasted once more in the sky lounge and continued to talk and make plans for the near future. Sounds like I’ll be doing a lot of heavy lifting tomorrow but she’s dying so, I don’t mind. And plus, she seemed to be genuinely asking for help instead of just expecting it like my mom and sister :/ And then we part ways and now I’m in my own room on this massive bed with no sheets or blankets. But I do have my body pillow and a normal pillow which is more than I could ever need, HAHAHA. I only have to sleep like this for a couple days! On September 2nd, I can move into my own dorm and finally unpack.
Now Im chatting with Andrew about photography ^_^
