apparently the ultimate test of pureblood koreanhood is the kimchee squat. it's basically a normal full squat with your feet flat on the floor. my problem was that i couldn't keep my feet flat. i kept rolling up onto my toes in order to stay squatted. if i lowered my heels to the floor, i'd fall over backwards. at first i was puzzled. then i got annoyed. i mean, EVERYONE i was with was able to do it without a problem...one minute standing, the next minute kimchee squatting. the only unbalanced roller was me. but no matter how many times i tried to keep my balance, i'd roll and eventually fall backwards. the only way to prevent that was to stick my arms straight out in front of me, which of course, just made it all the more ridiculous. so i failed the kimchee squat. i failed the ultimate korean test.
oh well. =)
