Jinju0, Have you heard of a "left handed compliment"? That's what I was implying. As to your experience, I have no idea. Maybe someone else will shed light on your question. I'd like to know as well. oh yes, i have. thanks, i hope so too. i just keep hearing that it means that the person is evil, but no explanation as to why or where it came from. thanks again.

Jinju, I happened to see your post and thought it was interesting enough to try to figure it out by looking on line. I googled "watch out for a left-handed woman." I did not find anything useful, but I did find this very funny website: left-handed satirical siteNow, please everyone, don't take this person literally, because it is CLEARLY a satire--you know, like "A Modest Proposal" or The Onion newspaper--so no angry rants, please. (My favorite part is the list of famous left-handers versus famous right-handers.) Jinju, it looked like there were also some bloggers and articles that mention left-handedness in passing, but I did not really look them over closely. Maybe that guy was just flirting and that was the first thing he thought of to say. You know, like, you're wearing a blue shirt, and the guy says to you, "Hey, hey, you know what they say about BLUE SHIRTS!" just to get a conversation going. Not very smooth, but it sometimes works. Bo

Bo thanks bo, i too had googled it at one time and never found anything. i don't mean to keep on about this off subject here. so i will keep it brief. the link was great, very ned flanders (simpsons). as for the guy flirting, i don't think so because he was VERY straight about it. and then finished his transaction and just left. not even a little nervous giggle. it was very weird. anyways, sorry for the interruption on topic, i just got excited about maybe figuring out this mystery. ;D

PLEASE please tell me. xo well, sua got a divorce and got drunk and asked poor baekho to bring her home. then MIL over hears that she got divorced. baekho goes to MIL's room and she asked for the whole story, she starts to cry and baekho comforts her by PUTTING HIS ARMS AROUND HER. AND SHE LETS HIM. AND SHE CRIED ON HIS CHEST. she then asked baekho what THEY are going to do for sua. can you believe it!

Wow! I guess Alternate Granny's advice finally sank in, and First-String Granny let her heart soften a bit. Now that she really needs someone who is currently healthy and dependable to turn to, that is. Thanks a million, Jinju. Those divorces sure go fast in Korea. It was just on Friday that Seonjae showed Sue the papers. Jeeps!

Lucy, yes, that divorce happened super fast! Sua decided to go back to Paris and finish her studies to get her mind off Seonjae. Also Gitae resigned from his job out of shame because of Seonjae's actions. Surprisingly Seonjae got on his knees and cried to his father when he found out he quit his job and admitted everything was his fault. Of course Mrs. Na threw one of her crying, screeching, stomp your feet fits when she found out Seonjae was no longer president. Ujin and Jiyeong were getting ready to go meet Ujin's father. Things are going very well for them.

About the Left-handed thing:
In ancient Rome, left-handed people were considered bad luck and untrustworthy. This idea lingers on in the English language: the Latin word for "Left Hand" is "Sinister".
