Lol i totally get this question. I also used to wonder if korean or Japanese people are constantly on the verge of dying any time they get sick based on how serious 9/10 times they make it out to be in manga and anime lmao
But probably just dramafying it lol
To be fair ive gone to the movies ONCE in my entire life, and im an adult btw so idk i kinda get it. Like the cost of the tickets sometimes is how much my weekly groceries cost
I wonder if the work culture has smth to do w it, since both south korea and japan are pretty upright when it comes to workload maybe it is a luxury in the sense neither a student nor a regular worker usually has the time for it
Okay but do Koreans NEVER go to the theater? Every time they’re soooooooo excited to go like it’s rare and luxurious
