“Eye Contact“is a big deal in United States. When people have a conversation, Americans are watching through their eyes and talk. In Korea, it is weird things which Koreans usually don’t do it. Followed an example like saying hello, if they didn’t know each other, they just ignore and if they say hello, they think it’s weird. Unlike this situation, Americans are saying hello even more conversation if they didn’t even know each other. It is really simple manner but it has a big difference between two countries.
Jennifer Klumper who was my first roommate ever looked at me and say hello. I still can’t forget her face, especially her eyes. They were blue and really clear to straight forward to my lens. Also her friend who didn’t even know me, greeted really pleasurable. This little thing changed my whole life. It made me to alter my characteristic which is really shy and timid to being sociable. Furthermore, it made me get familiar with this country and people lived here.
Even thought it was not a big deal but it made a big dream. It is not only overstatement but also it actually helped me a lot. In addition, I will not be here, if they didn’t have such kinds of manner like eye contact. In my opinion, it is a good idea which Korean should follow it.
