Babe I feel like there’s a lot of bowing in these K-dramas…
There isn’t in Taiwanese?!
Ummmm… I don’t think there’s as much…
When do Taiwanese bow?
Babe. U will NOT need to bow if u meet my parents.
Why not?!
It’s just not necessary!!!
If I had Australian parents, would u bow if u met them for the first time?!
But u don’t have Australian parents. U have Taiwanese parents. Are u saying I shouldn’t bow when I meet them?
It’s TOO MUCH babe…
Then when are Taiwanese bowing?!?!!
For like a really FORMAL EVENT. Not a casual meeting the parents lunch!
(Trying to compute…) what do you mean…?
Like even at the end of episode 8, she bows to her boss to say thank you?! You don’t need to do that in Taiwan, bruh!
HAHHAHAHA… really?!?!?!
I’M SERIOUS. I’VE NEVER SEEN A TAIWANESE PERSON IN A WORK SITUATION HAVE TO BOW TO THEIR BOSS LIKE THAT UNLESS THEY WERE ACCEPTING AN AWARD ON STAGE.
What?!?! Accepting an award on stage?!?!
Yeah like if she’s just at the office in a hoodie saying thanks to her boss, she doesn’t need to fucking bow!!!!!!
How would she say thanks then if she’s Taiwanese?
Just say thanks?!?!? Actually I don’t know. Write a card and buy him a packet of biscuits to say thanks?
Oh… the gift giving…
Mmmm… probably gift giving 🎁
Is that all?
I feel like with Taiwanese, there’s more bowing when ur sorry?
Hmmm… how do u greet new Aunties and Uncles?
Just say Hi Aunty, Hi Uncle.
LOL… when have U BOWED?!
When ON STAGE. ACCEPTING AN AWARD.
Lolololol 😅😅😅 that’s the only situation u’ve experienced as a Taiwanese bowing?!
Maybe?!?!?!? Now I’m not sure… lol… (shy)… I hope my readers don’t expect me to be a Taiwanese cultural guide…
Yeah I don’t think u know exactly what ur talking about babe…. but it’s cute… from your perspective…
It’s more of a head nodding acknowledgement sometimes. Not like a 90 degrees BOWING 🙇♀️
(Chuckles)… 90 degrees is too serious? 😅
Yes…
Fernando did that on camera…
Yeah. I was like. “Babe. U don’t need to do that… u weren’t on stage accepting an award…”
OOOOPPPSSSSS… HAHAHHAHAA 😅😅😅😅😅😅😅😅
Do it when ur ON STAGE. IN TAIWAN. ACCEPTING AN AWARD.
Lol!!! I will!!!!!!!! I would’ve done that anyway!!!!
I know!!!!! Lol… 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
…
Okay I just asked Mum.
What did she say?
“Yeah u don’t need to bow to ur Taiwanese boss. Just bow at Buddha when ur at Temple.”
HHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAAH 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
See?! There’s not that much bowing! Buddha?!?! Bow! With reverence.
Of course it’s with reverence babe that’s the whole point of the bow…?!
Well — u don’t need to bow to ur boss! That’s TOO MUCH. Honestly I think Taiwanese would be like “why is this person being weird?!”
Bowing at ur boss is weird?!
Lol… it makes u seem like a pick me. It doesn’t have a respectful effect at all. It’s weird?!
Hahahhahaha… what about Japanese?!
Sigh. Okay. Well… in the spectrum of bowing… I think Taiwanese are most relaxed, and Koreans — from what I’ve seen in K-dramas — are in between that and Japanese.
Japanese bow more than Koreans.
Yeah?! In my observations… 😅😅😅
I could be wrong?!
Lolololol… 🤗😘❤️💕
