U r not the only one. Kills the whole vibe.
Normal for my culture lol
it's the ML's fault. he just can't stand when MC, who is a lot younger than he is, calls him by his name or just hyung. he thinks titles are important smh
Not just this webtoon tho, theres a lot of manga that do. Especially manga, because of japanese culture, but for me that not japanese, its weird, very formal-ish, its like a constant reminder that 'I'm in a relationship with my co-worker' thing.
Deal with it lol
right?
I think it’s just the English version of Korean/japanese titles like -san or -Chan in Japanese and -chi and -nim for Korean. It’s weird in English cuz Mr. Is usually only reserved for people we don’t know well. Where as in Asian countries it’s very normalized to speak formally to someone older than you even if you are very close. I prefer the translations to keep the honorifics instead of changing them to a western term. Imagine everytime they said “hyung” it was “brother”
Diff culture I guess, it's quite common here in Asia esp for hierarchical society like Japan and SK. If my partner's older than me I'd prob still use "po" around them sometimes XD
I think its weird to be in a relationship but still call the partner with tittle, its sound weird calling 'Mr. YN!' or 'Director YN!' or 'Sales Manager Mr. YN!' when doing the thing, but i don't know, maybe it's just me i guess ┑(￣Д ￣)┍
