Yeah, it's a cultural thing. When your nose bleeds, you must be thinking dirty thoughts. Also, you may have noticed that when someone is bad-mouthing an individual it will cut to that individual sneezing. It's the same as the old wives tale about your ears ringing. "My ears are ringing, someone must be talking about me" lol

In Japan it's sneezing. XD

Love this thread....Has anyone mentioned the arm grab. After an argument the lead girl must always walk close enough pass the guy so that he can grab her arm to stop her. Or if you're a nice guy you will definitely not get the girl.

LAW 43: HOSPITAL SCENES!! Someone always ends up going to the hospital for the smallest things, like a cough. But, whether it's serious or not, there has to be a hospital scene in every drama.

saying that, I always wondered what was with that. a simple fever and its off to the hospital. I mean I could understand if your immune system was low like a little girl in one drama who had blood poisioning and her immune system was really low. She could get really ill if she isn't treated. See i could understand going to hospital for that reason but a healthy person rushed off because of a feve or a cold because they stood out in the rain is just silly XD

LAW 45 : Overaegyoing is a must !

yes, I just made that word up....

Excessive, usually to the point of being ridiculous, amounts of aegyo

You never have to pay for a taxi in Korea they are free (apparently) I have yet to see anyone pay a taxi driver when they get out of a cab in any drama i have ever seen :)

asian women shall be capible of performing ANY task in heels, be it running w/arms full, climbing really tall stairs, jumping fences, i say ANY task, except walking. any Asian woman who attempts to simply walk in heels at a normal pace down a flat surface carrying absolutely nothing will mistep and hurt her ankle in a way that will prevent her from walking for no more than 8 hrs, no less than 20 minutes. anyone else ever wonder what's in those creams and pain patches they use that unsprains an ankle is less than half a day??
