Indian Woman Shares First Visit To Korean Boyfriend’s Family; Video Goes Super Viral

Nowadays, there are many new trends in India, and one of them is the Hallyu Wave,  a word used to characterize the worldwide popularity of South Korean culture. It has brought about an unanticipated but significant cultural transformation in India in recent years, hyping the globalization of Korean entertainment, music, dramas, movies, cuisine, cosmetics, and lifestyle.

Due to this craze, Indians and Koreans are getting closer. As a result, many people have started marrying Koreans these days. Something similar has happened with an Indian named Piyusha Patil. She is a fashion and beauty content creator.

An Indian woman named Piyusha Patil is currently living in South Korea. There, she not only found the love of her life but also another family. She recently met the family of her Korean boyfriend, and her experience was well-documented in a video she recently posted on Instagram. In the video, it’s visible that she celebrated  Lunar New Year celebrations with her boyfriend’s family. Not only this, but also the video provides an insight into how she tried to adjust to the Korean family. In the video, Piyusha says,

Let me show you how we celebrated the Korean festival with my boyfriend’s family. As it was the Lunar New Year, today’s main menu was Mandu Tteokguk. These are dumpling rice cakes. I helped his family make Mandus.

Furthermore, Piyusha tells us how she adjusted to her new family, especially how things went with her boyfriend’s family members. Speaking about this, she said,

While his dad and uncle were cooking in the kitchen, we were on duty to fill up the Mandus. Honestly, it was a fun time. I told his family all the funny stories I knew.

Piyusha also recalls how she had to go to the grocery shop because some cooking items were missing. She said,

Then we had to go to the grocery store to get one of the cooking items that was missing. Something that often happens in our Indian families.

Remarkably, the best thing about her meeting is that her boyfriend’s father rushed to the market to buy some Indian food for her. Speaking about this, she said,

When I came back, I got to know that his father had made dahi for me and brought curry and naan as well, since they thought I might not be comfortable with Korean food.

Lastly, she talked about Korean rituals, saying,

After having the food, we did a ritual where the younger ones bowed to the eldest person in the family and received gifts. I, too, received a pack of sweets and chocolates and an envelope of money.
