Koreans are obsessed with their seasons. They seem to think that Spring, Summer, Fall, Winter are not only special in Korea, but better than everywhere else. I was surprised the first time I read this, but sure enough, one of the first things a Korean ever told me was that her proud nation had 4 seasons. Do they not know Japan and China can boast the same thing? Do they know most of the expats living in Korea are from places that can boast the same thing? I think the truth is that they really don't care. Korea's seasons - like their baseball, food, and movies - are the best, and any word to the contrary is either wrong or uninformed. Oh, Korea.
