When a woman is bad-mouthed by a bystander who doesn’t realize she speaks the same language, she calls her out in front of a crowd of music lovers!
Multi-Cultural Heritage
The woman is a light-skinned Latina American who lived in Korea for a few years during university and grad school. She majored in Korean Interpretation and Translation.
Live Music
During her time in Korea, she had the opportunity to attend music shows, which are typically free to enter for fans. It was undoubtedly one of her favorite things to do, and she went as often as she could.
Strict Rules
To gain access, attendees needed at least one of three items: an album copy of the group they wanted to see, proof of digital album purchase from approved music vendors in Korea, or the official lightstick from the most recent concert.
Members Only
Priority entry was based on official fan club memberships, which required having all three items, followed by two, and then one item. It was an easy, if not strict, rule to follow, and everyone knew the score.
Change of Rules
In one particular instance, the group the woman went to see hadn’t opened official fan club registration for nearly a decade, leading the management to change the entry process to a first-come, first-served basis while maintaining the tiered priority system.
A Good Position
However, the woman had all three items and arrived early, securing a great position in line. The lines could become huge, so she was grateful to have arrived early and avoided the lengthy outdoor waiting periods.
Minor Disruption
Due to some issues caused by a few foreign fans, the venue staff decided to conduct language proficiency quizzes in Korean for all foreigners in line to ensure proper conduct. It was odd, but the woman knew she had to just go along with it!
A Tough Quiz
The staff literally QUIZZED each foreigner in line on their Korean. If you couldn’t understand, you were booted. The woman passed with flying colors and, thankfully, kept her spot in line.
Crowd Mentality
However, the presence of international fans sometimes generated animosity from Korean fans who were unhappy about the removal of the official fan club priority. They could get quite protective and angry about it.
Waiting It Out
At the time, the woman was sitting alone in a line outside on a really hot summer day. There was a group of Korean girls in front and a lone Korean girl talking on her phone behind.
Bad Vibes
The woman overheard the girl behind her talking negatively about foreigners, referring to them as ‘foreign roaches‘ and expressing a desire to harm them. She was saying some pretty extreme stuff about what she’d do if she were in charge!
Tall Stories
The woman then overheard the girl say that she thought the woman had bribed staff to keep her spot in line, even though she couldn’t understand Korean! She was obviously unaware that the woman fluently spoke and understood Korean.
A Bad Reaction
Okay, so it was harmless talk. The woman didn’t know this girl. It shouldn’t have affected her, right? But it really rubbed her the wrong way, especially because she was talking quite loudly.
A Plan Unfolds
To address this situation, the angry woman decided to take action by going to a convenience store and purchasing a dozen bottles of water for everyone. It was heavy. She had about a dozen bottles of water.
Biding Her Time
Upon returning to the line, she politely and quietly asked the Korean girls in front to watch her bag and spot, then distributed water to those in line, including the girl who had been speaking on the phone.
Taking the Bait
The reaction was shocking as the girl’s mood immediately brightened, and she thanked the woman. It was exactly what she’d hoped would happen! She’d fallen perfectly into her ploy!
Throwing It Back
The woman seized the moment and, while still smiling, delivered a message in perfect Korean: “The next time you loudly talk about foreigners, make sure they can’t actually understand you!”
An Embarrassing Realization
The area fell silent, and the girl, her smile vanishing, turned beetroot red, excusing herself to her friend on the phone and apologizing. It was a priceless moment, and the woman was absolutely delighted!
A Great Night
As a bonus, the girls in front of the woman overheard the whole exchange and welcomed her into their group for the day! It turned out to be one of the best gigs she’d ever been to!
