when shopping in Korea.. THINGS YOU SHOULD KNOW

[fatimagarthia]

I don't think I'll ever buy clothes in South Korea... I don't need the trauma 😂

[arushi]

Guess I'm not getting any clothes there💀

[Necromaira]

As a german I thought that thing with "once the packaging is open you cannot return it" was common sense🤨

[thesentientpotato]

I'm normally s or xs but i looked at a East Asian size chart and suddenly I'm an L/XL, didn't know how to feel lol

[Alex-qnqp]

I would have to get custom clothes made for me 💀

I'm a 00 in the US and struggle to find things that fit properly. Asian sizes honestly are a dream for me. I'm also only 4'11" so it would be wonderful to find clothes that don't go past my feet 😂

something i found interesting shopping in hongdae was that all the clothing on the sales floor is just for show, you then take it to the cash and they'll give you a new one there

I can confirm, I went to south korea with my friend last summer and as a 5'8" person... well, let's just say it was quite a ride 😭

To anyone watching this: please don't be discouraged by this video. I'm a European girl living in South Korea and a lot of clothes here aren't even sold in sizes like XS, S, M, L etc. A lot of clothes actually come in "One Size" which might sound even worse right now, but let me tell you I'm usually a size S in Germany and most of the "One Size" clothing in Korea is way to big on me. It would easily fit a German size M or even L. And no, not all girls in Korea are super thin. There are people with various different body shapes, just like anywhere else in the world. However, Korean people tend to be a lot shorter than the average European, so I often have trouble finding pants that are long enough for my legs. That's all. So yeah, please don't be discouraged. If you ever travel to Korea you will still be able to find cute clothes that fit you 😊

Also people don’t generally hold doors for others. I’ve been stuck holding a door because I didn’t want to hit someone since no one was taking it. And I’ve been hit in the face before because I forgot and continued walking straight into the door lol😅

Another thing is that they don't have large shoe sizes for women. I struggled so hard and got very self-conscious about my shoe size despite it being a normal size in the US

[Le_Uni]

honestly as someone underweight (i have a fast metabolism) shopping in korea would be a dream as i would be able to actually find nice clothes that fit me

[totia]

Shopping in south korea would shoot down every ounce of self esteem i’ve ever tried to build up😭😭😭

[MeMyselfI]

Can we please appreciate her gorgeous styles in every 👏🏻 single 👏🏻 video 👏🏻

[detoyoon]

I guess I'd have to go nakey nakey in South Korea cz nothing would fit me 😅

[Punipunpi_panda]

I’m glad when I moved to Japan everything now fits me since the xs and s are actually small enough for me unlike Canada

[fauziahnurizzati]

a lot of asian country sizes are just extra small in every corner. i'm a relatively medium to large size in us but in my country, the outfit that matches me at the very least are those in xxl-xxxxl. the same goes for shoes. i can fit just fine in 39 or 40 in eu or us sizes but in my country it's 42 or 43.

Wore a size 00 the Gap was the only place I could find jeans that fit. Glad I was a seamstress I re made all my clothes when I bought them. I'm 5' 4" tall

[gothcsm]

shopping for clothes in Korea sounds like a one way ticket to my eating disorder staring back up. I’m generally anywhere between a size 10-16 (depending on the store/brand because America makes women’s jeans sizes so complicated for no reason??) so I would probably have to get custom clothes…

I love Asian clothing sizes. Finally, stuff I don't have to tailor! Although, sometimes the sleeves and pantlegs are too short for me.
