Cultural remix

Watch 2-3 Korean dramas, completely immerse yourself in them and then suddenly watch a Pakistan drama. Thats it. Add to that western culture all around me and on TV and  80s Indian culture in my head!
That was enough to get a good brain freeze and a real messed up head :D

I cant believe how confused I got and how I got a real headache by doing this, my brain was so confused, it was ridiculous. Real headache I got 😀 This is what is called a culture shock? :-)

K Drama super cute and innocent romance, which I love,  then the Super conservative Pak romance where the word Mohobat. was uttered once only in episode 15 :) and then Mix it up with moronic teenagers smooching disgustingly in the tube station. culture engine in my brain couldn't take it, It burnt out!

It took me 3-4 episodes to realise that this guy and this girl are actually girl friend and boy friend in the Pak drama. Ha ha! Takes me right back to high school days when I thought romance was fictional, happened only in movies :) See this is exactly how 80s India was :)

Actually another confusion was that this was a Pak drama has some substance , I realised most of the stuff we watch these days Korean or hollywood - No substance, only entertainment. hmmmm!
