I’m visiting Korea in 2027. I’m tall, fat, and female. Will I be treated poorly?
Context: I’ve heard that I could be ostracized for my weight and I’m on the more sensitive side, so I thought I’d ask to prepare myself.
I’m 6 feet tall and from Canada. I plan on losing more weight ( I’m already down 30lbs in the last year or so ). I’m not going to disclose my weight, but I AM over weight, though it’s pretty well distributed and people don’t believe me when I tell them how much I weight and think I weigh less.
My friend and i are travelling to Seoul and we will probably be there for almost two weeks. I’m also trying to learn Korean so I don’t have to heavily rely on translator apps.
I would assume other than fast food, most of the food there is in the healthier end ( that’s what I heard ) and I’m not really an over eater anyway. I know we also plan to walk around a lot.
I just want to mentally prepare myself if my weight is going to be brought up constantly 😭 #local source
