My sister and her friends rented a Karaoke Room attached to a Korean restaurant and she asked me to join. I thought it would be an interesting experience to compare and contrast between Korea and America so I accepted her invitation… and here’s what I discovered:
1. They played the same Korean soap operas on the screen as they do in Korea, which sadly it made me miss Korea.
2. It was fun to see her and her friends open-minded and eventually enjoying a very Asian activity.
3. Some of her friends were a little gun shy of the microphone but then were quickly attached – In Korea, they have to fight over it because everyone loves to sing!
4. Her and her friends heard strange noises coming out of the stereo system but I heard “2” “3” “6” “5” as the song numbers were punched in on the giant keypad.
5. I was the only Asian in the room… which I notice more now as I continue my journey of embracing my asian-ness.
The bottom line: I still suck at singing no matter what country I am in.
