Korean cleavage

Got your attention huh? hehe

I was watching the Korean Big Bell award (effectively the Korean Oscars) and noticed something. EVERY time that a woman bowed, she would cover up the cleavage revealing portion of her dress. It took me a couple of time before I realized it, because I chalked it up to this is how Koreans bow, but when a woman juggled her award envelopes to bow that way so it became distracting. Afterwards, I started to pay attention every time a woman bowed, and they DID THAT EVERY TIME and IT WAS ANNOYING!

Seriously, what is the point of wearing a low cut dress if you don't intend to show cleavage? Perhaps they are hiding the fact that they don't have any?

But there were a few that were reasonably well endowed that did the same thing... it just seems like a strange thing...

I thought that holding your hand over your breast was simply the polite way of bowing.
Shame about the cleavage though. Guess you'll just have to watch "La Belle" again or something...

Does it mean,
wearing low cut = show cleavage

They just don't want to show their cleavage. Definately it is not kind of polite way...most korean girls don't bow like that except when they wear low cut dress...I've seen korean men don't understand that korean women bow like that...

I dub this the Korean cleavage paradox. They love wearing low cut dresses that show cleavage, but will do their damnedest to prevent from showing

i find this topic funny. i'd agree it is a paradox but does it really matter? it's like wearing a kinda short top but always pulling it down to try to not show too much. that's probably how it is with the whole cleavage thing. it's cute to wear but not cute if it all spills out. that's my take.

All these posts are from a guy perspective?

What about the Korean tradition & culture? Though dressing a low cut dress, they should show respect. Dont forget that we are talking about Korea, where people shows a lot of respect for elders.
