Korean temperature Part 2 of 2

A short time ago, the temperature was about 25-30 degrees everyday. The sun was out, the birds were singing, it felt good to be alive. I opened the windows to my classroom so I could enjoy some of the great weather while I was at work. Sadly, my windows were closed shortly after they were opened as most of my class were complaining that it was to cold. I could not get my head around this. When it is above 30 degrees it is too hot, but 25 degrees is too cold? WHAT? WHEN ARE YOU HAPPY???

Lately, I have been enjoying the nice Autumn temperatures. It has been between 20 and 25 during the day, which in my mind is perfect. I am walking around in jeans and a t-shirt, sun glasses on and a big smile on my face. The rest of Korea is wearing 3 layers of clothing including a coat with the option of a beanie
or scarf. Once again, this gets me thinking. WHAT? WHEN ARE YOU HAPPY???

The temperatures outside are good. However, if you go inside anywhere where a Korean is controlling the temperature you will get hot. This includes everything like supermarkets, restaurants, coffee shops, buses, taxis and the subway. So the temperature is back up to about 30 degrees. Logically, you'd think if you had a big coat on outside and you got onto a bus that is 10 degrees warmer, you would take off the coat. Right? WRONG! You would leave the coat on and stare at the waygook (foreigner) who is in just a t-shirt.
