G – Well, I like traveling so much. I was surfing on the Internet with my sister for our next visit. We found a beautiful photo of the Taj Mahal Agra. It was really Incredible. We decided to travel to India. We started to research and read about India. Discovered India’s fascinating culture, exotic places, and people caught my eye. We choose the golden triangle of India to visit which are New Delhi, Agra, & Jaipur.
G – Before traveling to India I do search various media. We also heard a lot about India in the news. Because all of us living in third world counties there is not much truth in the news. But when we traveled to India we witnessed the amazing beauty of this country. It has a good culture. Indian people have amazing hospitality.
G – I think I am kind, cute & energetic.
G – There was a mix of traditional people and modern people. What I observed was youngsters are more into modern & old people are traditional. Also, Indian people strongly believe in God & ethics. It’s somewhere common things we share with India.Know what is similar between India & South korea.
G – The Indian words we knew was “Namaste” for sure. But I learned new Hindi words “Kuch Nai” by watching my favorite Bollywood movie Aashique 2. Clothing color according to skin tone.
G – I think Hindi movies have a very long story. I remember a movie by Amitabh Bachan Amar, Akbar, or Anthony. Also, 3 Idiots. Bollywood is so famous here. After visiting India I discovered my new favorite actor and he is Aditya Roy Kapoor. I have been watching many Bollywood movies, Me and my sister decided to take a short course of Bollywood dance in the New Delhi dance academy. It was a great experience there. We have lots of memories.
G – Well, If there is a guy with a face like Aditya Roy Kapoor and charming like Shah Ruk Khan definitely yes.
G – I think having a proper internet is very important while traveling to India. We had a problem with Internet speed. People who are not used to spicy foods must have something in a bag with them as savers. I didn’t have any problem because I eat spicy food a lot in Korea. I have seen people from Europe who couldn’t able to eat spicy food. Fashion label Interview
