    Korean not-so-useful, but amusing, phrase of the day.

    jessicainkorea:

    The game “rock scissors paper” in Korean is called:

    가위 바위 보(kawi, bawi, bo)

    Pronounced something like CALLY BALLY BO! said really fast.

    가위 바위 보

    is used to settle pretty much any dispute you can think of in the classroom: who will go first? who will get food first? who will get to ask the teacher a question?

    It’s pretty great.

    Not useful? This is the most important cultural commodity, second only to the all important kimchi!

    As Jessica said, yelled very fast. In the case of ties or tournament like elimination, secondary rounds only require a quick and decisive “BO” to get play (for example: GAWI BAWI BO! BO! BO! BO!)
