Cross-posted from my regular blog:

Yesterday, during dinner, a random Korean awards show came on on TV. I didn't pay it much mind until this song started playing.

Yes, it's "Like a Virgin" sung by a male kpop singer in bad English with rapping.

As if that alone weren't bad enough, my hostmom turns to me and asks "what is the meaning of 'like a virgin'?" and I had to explain through mouthfuls of kimchi jjigae. She then likened it to 총각 and asked if you could call a person by the title. I wish I had said yes.
