English translation
Came to buy dumplings lmaooo. This is my field of vision — couldn't see a thing while paying, me and the vendor just flailing at each other.
만두사러 왔는데ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ ㅋㅅㅂ / 내 시야 계산할 때 안보여서 아저씨랑 허우적거림
💡 Why is the photo just... white?
Korean winter street stalls steam dumplings in stacked bamboo baskets right on the sidewalk, and when the lid comes off the whole stall vanishes in a cloud. She's holding out cash into pure fog.vs. the US: a hot dog cart that fogs you out like a sauna the moment it opens.Klore note
💡 What's 'ㅋㅅㅂ'?
Consonant-only shorthand: ㅋ for laughing plus ㅅㅂ, the muffled initials of a common swear. It's the typed equivalent of laughing and muttering 'oh my god' at once.vs. English: typing 'lmao wtf' but with the vowels knocked out.Klore note
