In
South Korea, blood is a big deal. It doesn’t just deliver oxygen to the rest of
your body—it determines your personality. People in South Korea are
automatically stereotyped thanks to their blood type.
While this belief originated in Japan, it has taken a firm hold in South Korean
culture, and it might even make a difference in who marries whom.
There
are positive and negative traits assigned to each blood type. People with Type
A are thought to be conservative
and punctual,
but they can be also obsessive, uptight, and a bit introverted. However, they
think that cheating on their romantic partners is wrong and will thus be
extremely loyal. People with Type B are a totally different story. While they
have some good traits like creativity and passion, they’re also willing to
cheat on their partners, lazy, and impatient. There’s even a South Korean movie
called My Boyfriend is Type B,
a romantic comedy about
a Type A girl who falls for a Type B boy and has to deal with his impulsive
nature.
As
for Type AB, they’re supposed to be cool and under control, but they can be
elitist, harsh, and judgmental. Type O means a person is ambitious and
athletic. They want big things in life, and nothing is going to stand in their
way. On the flip side, they’re pompous and egotistical, but once they decide to
commit to a relationship, they’re generally pretty loyal. So if you ever visit
South Korea, you might want to figure out your blood type first—someone is
going to ask eventually.
