Hi~ my apologies if I used the wrong flair… I am really new here.
Today, I went to a festival called “Taste of Korea” and genuinely I did enjoy it. But something happened and it was the first time I experienced this.
They had an area where you can try on 한복, and this is something that I’ve always wanted to do!
When it was my turn, the older woman who was working took a look at me and she stated that “Oh well you are too fat to try one on, you should come back in September when you lose weight so it can fit properly”.
And I was honestly stunned, at the end of the day I was able to still try one on, just the top cover piece of the outfit had to be in men’s size…
Is this a normal thing?
Side note: I know that I’m not exactly skinny but I’m not exactly obese either. I have some medical issues that makes it so much harder to lose weight. And 90% of the volunteers/workers were Korean…
플로리다에서 **‘Taste of Korea’**라는 축제에 다녀왔어요. 한복을 입어 보고 싶어서 갔는데, 나이가 있으신 아주머니께서 저에게 한복을 입기 어려울 것 같고 살을 빼야 한다고 말씀하셨어요. 그 말을 듣고 많이 속상했고, 제 건강 문제 때문에 더 위축되는 기분이 들었어요.
저는 체중에 영향을 주는 건강 문제가 있어서 그 말이 더 마음에 남았어요.
