Halloween isn't too big in Korea...which is might seem disappointing. However, if you were to go to an infamous foreigner bar, you would be pleasantly surprised to see a splash of craziness from home...
The foreigners went ALL OUT...
This year, I slacked on finding a costume, but decided to use my dance outfit from my school's talent show...I was Michael Jackson (마이클 잭슨)! While I was getting dressed, I had an idea to make my skin white like MJ's. I didn't have any skin make-up of my own, but I recalled I was given a free sample of Korean BB Cream. I thought maybe Korean skin tones would be too dark for my fair complexion... On the contrary! My Korean make-up was whiter than me! Therefore, it was perfect for making me look ghostly-white like Michael Jackson. I find Koreans' obsession with being white so funny---especially since in America most people go out of their way to get a tan!

ReplyDeleteI totally forgot about going to Traveler's for Saturday. I missed out on seeing most of these costumes. :(
