Hey guys, it’s mimi And this is my friend, Anna We’re here to talk about… How girls flirt! Best topic ever I was actually curious to know How you or your friends People around you do that There are certain things Korean girls do When they like someone, when flirting I’m pretty sure there’s much difference between Girls from here and girls from there, so.. Imagine that I’m your crush I’m a guy and I’m your crush I’m going to hide myself So that you can imagine that I’m a real guy I’m gonna call you, ¨Anna¨, I’m going to call your name And then just show me How you react, okay? Hey, Anna Oh hi How are you today? You don’t seem to get shy or something No I wouldn’t get shy I have quite a lot of male friends So I’d say that makes it easier for me To be like, more natural I would say I wouldn’t be like ¨Oh my god it’s so awkward¨ Okay so, when you have your crush When he seems to like you too But never says that What would you do? Would you.. would you ask him out first? I’m sure I wouldn’t say like.. Do you want to go to a bar with me? Do you want to have drinks with me? I would never be that direct with a guy Because I’m more kind of traditional So I would…
01:49 - I would wait for the guy to make this first move That’s exactly the same here We don’t say ¨I want you to be my boyfriend¨ no no Not everyone but most Korean girls We don’t even call him first or talk to him first usually It’s not about being shy But we just wait for guys to talk to us first And then make a plan to meet And go somewhere first Everything first, to go somewhere To eat something If you don’t know the guy, if you are not friends yet And he’s too shy to speak with you Then maybe I could go up to him And say something like Oh hi do we have a lesson today But something not really obvious Something kind of like Guys would think This girl is not even interested She just wants to be friends with me But actually there might be another reason I just do directly to the guy.. Imagine again that I’m your crush I’m going to make a joke I’m going to say something And just feel free to say anything I’m going to hide myself Why you keep knocking on the door? I mean Why..? Why do I keep knocking on the..? Don’t you want to know what kind of door it is? Oh you are so funny Ask me what door This is not what I wanted I’m sweating We have to say we didn’t rehearse Why you keep knocking on the door? What door? The door of my heart When your crush or a guy you’re not interested in at all Makes a boring joke, terrible joke He’s so cute he’s trying to seduce me I would still laugh Even if I didn’t like the guy Because I would appreciate the effort that he made And if I like the guy, obviously I would laugh I’ll just go on speaking to him And if I don’t like the guy I would just laugh But I wouldn’t try to keep the conversation going If I was not interested I would just.. I would not even laugh When we like someone We just laugh all the time We just smile and laugh Even the guy says this kind of weird joke We’re just like Oh you’re so funny!! I think here it’s really the same Even if the joke is not funny if I like the guy Oh this joke was so cute it was so funny Next one is about physical affection I saw some girls from other countries They are very direct When touching (the guy) It’s obvious that they are trying to flirt But Koreans are not that direct If this is the guy that I like Oh that’s so funny Hey..um.. So the guy doesn’t notice (that I’m touching him) It’s the same for me On like knees or something You touch his knees?! Maybe on his shoulder It happened to me, we went on a walk I tried to get closer to the guy So that our shoulders touched and everything So if you are in a bar And if somebody drinks a bit too much Then maybe the person just sort of like I don’t know, (she) even touches the guy’s legs Because they do that sometimes But I do not feel comfortable doing that Actually there are girls here too who do that They are not brave enough when they are sober When they don’t drink anything That’s why they go grab some drinks with the guy So that they get brave and a bit tipsy And then they just..
they start touching 05:55 - They are just like after drinking, Oh, I’m drunk They’re actually not drunk Ohhh I’m druuunk I think the most obvious thing I did Yeah it was not that like.. I think that’s nice if you just put your head on his shoulders Yeah It’s also really subtle I think it’s really cute I’m drunk I’m moving a box It’s not that heavy I can do it by myself But to make excuse And to get attention from the guy that I like I just called a guy Oh hey um I have to move this but this is so heavy Can you come and help me? You know, guys they are always When someone needs me I have to do everything to solve the problem When a girl asks for help And they are just Ok just hold on, wait for a second After that Girls are always like Oh thank you so much, you’re the best Have you ever asked for help to a guy even though you didn’t need it? Yeah sure You’re not saying that ¨I like you¨ It’s not like the guy can understand right away That you like him There was a guy sitting next to me He seemed kind of cute So I asked ¨Do you know the Wi-Fi password?¨ ¨Could you help me with the Wi-Fi?¨ ¨Because I don’t see the password anywhere¨ That’s a good excuse But the guy didn’t really get it He just literally told me the Wi-Fi password I could tell that he didn’t pick up the sign They will not, you know Notice that the girl is actually trying to approach them They would just think that ¨Oh she doesn’t know the Wi-Fi password¨ But the real reason.. Maybe he didn’t think about that Anyway that’s a very good excuse What’s the password of Wi-Fi? I’m gonna say you a word in Korean Just guess what I’m trying to say, okay? That’s a tough one Okay When you do something wrong You say ¨Oppa I did something wrong¨ ..No it’s not? When you call a guy who’s older than you We use this word ‘Oppa’ A lot of guys like this word because It sounds really cute when a girl says like this The point here is that Not just saying Oppa But saying it like.. We say it ‘Aegyo’ in Korean When girls act cute When girls make their voice kind of cute In front of someone they like What do you want to do today? Pretending to be cute I think it’s very cute when you speak with the guy like this Do you think you do this too to a guy you like? Or someone..
08:49 - Have you ever seen anyone from Europe or any other countries doing this? When are we going to meet? What we are going to eat today? Something like this? I don’t think it’s very common to do that They would rather go for a deep voice I think Like in French you say ‘femme fatale’ Like some.. like a woman Femme fatale!!! (They) try to look more like..sexy? Yeah I think they rather do that than looking cute And once they get together with the guy then they could act this way They could really be like this very cute But I think the initial stage.. They would rather try to act like You know, a mature woman like a femme fatale What about you? Have you ever done it? So.. The thing is It never works for me I always mess up something like I can never be that cool with, you know, I don’t do that, no no Maybe it’s because I’m really tall So maybe for Asian girls it works Because they are really fragile They are small I think for tall girls..
09:59 - Yeah, you’re quite tall It doesn’t work the same way But I think you can still be cute Even though you are tall I want to see you trying it I.. I’m not good at this, I don’t think I would.. I would only say Oppa Yeah that was very good! That was perfect! Korean guys would be dead by hearing it Like, oh my god, she’s so cute Oh my God Alright guys, my friend’s gone She’s busy Hope you enjoyed our little comparison of how girls flirt If you are dating or have dated someone from Korea or from..
