Busted!

Posted by John Humphreys on February 12, 2007

When I come to Korea I often stay with HH. Unlike most unmarried Korean girls HH lives alone and so there are no parents to dodge. But like all good Korean girls she can’t let her mum know that she is letting an evil pegin (white guy) stay at her house.

During the week HH leaves early for work while I laze about, go and get something to eat and eventually use her computer to do some blogging and/or work. But today her mum decided to pay her a surprise visit and much to her surprise she found me at the house! Opps.

Now there’s trouble. Mum is angry at HH and I have been banished until peace can be restored. So now that my plans for a peaceful and relaxing couple of weeks have been disrupted I have to find a new place to stay and a new plan.

    I’ve got a mate in a similar situation on his recent trip to Tokyo to see his gf. She still lives with her parents and it is a real pain in the arse for him with all the secrecy, not to mention the expense of paying for a hotel as well.

    On the upside, now that the parents are aware of your existance, it will be easier to ask for their daughter’s hand in marraige.

    It is one of the bad things that can happen to a girl. My God, save me

  6. So I take it you and mum didn’t spend any time sharing a pot of tea then. Maybe next week.

    Oh no, John, that’s no good. Has HH been able to patch it up yet with her mum yet? But then again these things take time. I think it was over one year before Reiko’s parents were comfortable with our relationship….

    Hope you are well,

    Steve

  8. Steve — her mum is fine with the relatioship. She just wasn’t fine with HH having a guy staying at her house.

    Wow – she’s fine with it even after your run in?!

    If it were my family, there would be a big blow out which would end in someone getting disowned and then three years is usually the timeframe you’d have to wait until you can approach the parents again and make amends. :)

    She didn’t have her own key, did she?

    This is bloody funny. The only thing that could make it better is if you were making breakfast while naked or something.
