Amy is incredibly rude to her in-laws. Instead of being appreciative that they are wiling to embrace her and trying to make her feel loved by offering food and doing yard work she is negative about everything they do. Immigration to a new country means to adapt their culture and ways, not forcing your own habits on them. Shame on you Amy!
I really don't get Amy, she has such a crap attitude towards her in-laws, who are being so kind to her and trying to adjust. I understand her wanting to be healthy, and it being hard living in a different country. But there are nicer ways to say things, compromising. She says her husband is childish, but she's the one acting like a brat.
@@BrandonHilikus yeah there will be difference. But even when things differ, people still appreciate the thought when someone tries to do something nice for them. But amy is like oh what a nuisance and she doesn't hide it. She is extremely rude. she is like. I know what is life, i know how it is, you don't know what its like, .... i mean jeez. come on girl you're not the only one with THE life experience.
No, marriage does not have a set of established rules. It is about finding a middle ground and finding what works for both of them. You give up on some things but you gain others. She already gave up her home country.
It's called compromising. Couples like these need to find some sort of middle ground in order to keep a complicated relationship going or else it will all fall apart due to the cultural differences.
Amy should adapt with her husband culture. She's living in Korea not Canada. So live like a Korean not as a Canadian. She is a bit rude to her husband's family. That's my opinion. Sorry if my comment offences the other.
Ok, first off, I think what a lot of people here are forgetting is that korean culture - and Asian culture in general - are very family oriented. This is coming from myself who grew up in an Asian household. If you marry into a family like this, you should be able to accept this fact from the very beginning. I do agree that Korean culture can be uptight, especially when it comes to age hiarchies. To be honest, that bothers me too. But the part where the father in law brings in side dishes all the time? That is VERY normal. No matter if their son can cook or not, it's kind of part of the culture that parents send them food. It's a sign of respect and acceptance towards the marriage. It has nothing to do at all whether he needs to grow up or not. I can see that a lot of the tension is due to a lack of communication, so I can definitely say that it's not all Amy's fault, but she should try to be more considerate.
Amy needs to stop playing the "pitiful foreigner card." I understand that it's hard to adapt to a different country and that her nutrition means that she can't eat a lot of foods her in-laws serve, but she has been in Korea for a LONG time. We don't expect her to change her eating habits, but her attitude and narrow mindset have to change.
+LIEGI It's not her attitude the only problem, her husband should understand her too. He spends all the money eating out and wants to live back with his mother. If you married a foreigner you should at least try to understand the person's cultural difference.
+Oh Sehun agreed, her husband needs to grow up and learn how to cook and do things for himself, but honestly I don't blame him, with the foods that she serves.
i am arab and i think she is rude as hell .. she should respect her family in law more .. she didn't great her father in law when he came 😱 and i think she could force herself to take a bite of what her mother in law made for her .. she didn't even respect the food and kept saying gross gross .. i think arab and korean have some cultural similarity .. girl you are rude watch your attitude
She is very rude. Her mother in law didn't even serve her anything fattening. Where she really irked me was when she was left with her mother in law and she made it clear that she didn't want to speak with her. She really gave Canadians a bad name.
Most korean in-laws are really rude to foreigners but hers are really nice İf i had that in-laws i would be loving them she just ignores them I think she is so rude 😒
+melany qeeen I don't know what I see in the program is that her in-laws are actually really nice to her but she is rude to them that is what I see ...Maybe it is different I don't know 😳
+Lale İ. She could dislike them for reasons like she's always pressured to have kids or maybe they want her to be a 'traditional wife' that cooked for her husband etc. They've been together for 5-6 years, and we are only seeing minutes of their scenes. We dont know the conversations that she and her in-laws have had before, it's better not to judge that much. I think they're nice, it's just maybe Amy doesnt like their mentality. I think Amy can be rude because of silly reasons, but I don't think she would be rude for no reason
+liacokelat ...EXACTLY!!!! With over 100 hours of filming for this show, it's VERY EASY for things to be editing according to what KBS wants the viewer to see. I am by no means a traditional wife and Young Bin is by no means a traditional husband yet his family seems to put more pressure on me to be traditional than him... because he can do no wrong in their eyes. Let it be known that I have no problem with his extended family, only his immediate family who once made me the butt end of an April Fool's Day joke by telling the family I was pregnant. His father started that "joke". Not funny at all!
wow! I can't understand why Amy have to have such a strong attitude towards EVERYONE in her husband's family? I know she is Canadian, but she have to have very clear that SHE ONLY SHE decided to married a Korean and their completely different. She needs to tone down a little bit with his family.
ikr!! Like she's complaining too much. Her mother in law makes them food and she complains?! She doesnt have to eat it, thats her choice.... But she should show more gratitude to the mother. She seems so cold and harsh, when the mum was talking to her and stuff.
Poor Amy, she is going through so much emotionally. I can't imagine being away from home for 10 years and losing my mom, living at the same place I work, and not having any outlet or escape. I would run away too. Seems like she needs a husband who isn't an overgrown 2 year old, and a real apartment away from the gym. Work is work, home is home, it helps to separate the two.
I wish everyone would leave Amy alone. She's obviously trying. No one is looking at things from her perspective. I see both sides of the situation and they just need to communicate more to understand each other better. If he wants to eat Korean food then he should ask her to make it for him and if she wants to be a health nut and eat only proteins, then he should make it for her. Also, there are plenty of foreigners like Joon from G.O.D and Amber from f(x) who have been there for years and still struggles with some of the Korean language and culture. No one is going to be perfect or try to be perfect. They just need to learn to compromise.
+Shaye Walker Neither *should* make food for the other and I doubt him nor her knows how to cook the other's food (and he can barely cook as it is). They could learn to cook meals both likes, though and take turns in cooking duties. I agree that a compromise needs to be made and she and he is struggling, but I get the feeling he'd be the same man-child if they moved to Canada.
She shows them plenty of respect. What you want is for her to bend to their will. You should build a time machine and go back to the 1950's where you belong.
Amy's really rude. I don't like her. If you're gonna refuse something or say no to something she should at least do it nicely. She shouldn't be making faces. I only agree that her husband needs to grow up.
well, well.. 1. Nir seems to get used pretty easy with the atmosphere when it is crowded. A job involving people interaction would be nice for him, I think. 2. Amy wants to build something on her own that is why the gym is important to her from what I see. I don't find her rude, she just looks like being rude as she is more a loner than a group person, imo. There were some parts where I agreed with her.
Amy has a very straightforward and blunt manner, which is causing offence (hence the frowns when the elders discuss her) due to Korea's age hierarchy system. Seems one can only be that forthright if both people are of the same age or the other is younger ... I can understand some of her actions, but she could've at least helped when the MIL was preparing food (even if she was already full), just to show her appreciation. Korea seems tough for waygook wives who have no interest in being housewives, really (as seen with the Italian woman in earlier episodes). Hopefully, this shatters some illusions some i-fans have :-D Wish they interviewed Amy and her husband in the studio afterwards, though. as Nir had some sound points.
I really dislike how Amy acts around her in laws. She needs to learn respect and Korean culture. It's common for Korean family members to come around often
I like Amy since her personality is very strong. Yes, she needs to be tough to survive in a foreign country. But, I do not take Amy's side. As I see, Youngbin's parents try to respect her lifestyle, then she should also do at least a little for them. My husband is an American born, he cannot make a proper conversation with my parents either. There are a lot of frustration going on among my parents, me and my husband since my parents do not speak English. However, my husband still thinks that it is right to scarify some of his to adjust with the culture and make everyone happy! I hope there will be a happy ending for everyone on the show :)
I got irritate when i saw amy's attitude.. She said she doesnt want her husbdand acts like a child, but come on in fact yeonbin is 4years younger than her! Ofcorz he acts like that..if a man marry a woman who is older than him it means that he is very close to his mother.. Come on amy,,you are live in S.K so act like one..
When you marry a korean you need to embrace the whole family because korean people love and respect their family a lot. She only thinks about her , she also needs to make a little concessions not trying to be always right and rude. She ignores her in laws, she’s making faces when she replies to them.
I really wanted to smack her when they went to visit his mom. It's okay to feel uncomfortable around your in-laws, but she is down right rude. If you don't want more food then tell her that you are full in a polite way not "No. No. I don't want it." I also think it's a bit ridiculous that she is living in Korea and she refuses to eat the food. There are healthy conscious people in Korea too and I've seen them still find Korean food that is suitable to their diet. I do understand her part about the growing up part though. He needs to be more independent, but he should be allowed to be a momma's boy every once in a while. His mother won't be with him forever.
My problem with Amy is she chose to move there and get married to a Korean man. At least meet him half way and be respectful to her husband father. If you cook for yourself at least cook the foods he like, Amy wouldn't have to do it ( cook) everyday.
I don't understand why Amy is bothering for the side dishes his father brought? Since she and her husband can't cook she should be thankful for her father-in-law!
I understand that amy doesn't want to live with her Korean inlaws, neither would I. But if his Mum is nice enough to cut some fruit for you and is warm and welcoming towards you, show some respect and eat the damn fruit. Even if you are full.
Amy is like trying to bend a metal using bare hands and she believes she has the ability when she is not. When you live in Rome, do it the Rome way girl!
Amy should understand that Asian generations often live together in the same house. In some countries, it's also a sign of being filial but its understandable that western families don't do that. In that case they should move out but maybe somewhere nearby the in laws so that they can visit often, no need to be all angry. It's so upsetting especially after seeing the father helping with the plants and bringing soup for her
Also, if you come to live in another country, one must adapt. Life is about adapting. You cannot come to a different country and still be stubborn about your "foreign" way. That is called colonialism. Adapt to the Korean way for respect. If you go to someones house, you don't do and say what you feel like out of respect for their place. Same thing.
Amy is awkward in a family setting, any family setting. I think it has to do with her family upbringing, her relation to her own family plus her personality. I think at this point in their marriage, she could extend herself a bit more to be a bit closer to the husband's family especially the parents. If they try to be closer with her, she can be gracious and meet them halfway. It's the decent thing to do since they're her family now (this is Korea after all)in a foreign land. It's not like they shun or ignore her. As for the food the parents bring to their workplace, even if she doesn't like them, just accept them without making faces (childish behavior imo). I'm sure the husband likes them since he doesn't get to eat home cooked Korean meals much. And she was rude to the sister about the flowers for Parent's Day. Even if she didn't like the situation sprung up to her, she shouldn't have shown her displeasure to the sister. It was her husband's fault for not letting her know in advance that he agreed to that arrangement.
Amy is just rude. It's not even a cultural thing. She said she doesn't want to be at her mother in law's house directly to her. Like what?? Her English sounds very weird too.
As a Canadian and this could be different for everyone...but as kid you learn that you should not want to be like anyone else. You should appreciate who you are and stay true to it. Like leafs on a tree :P We welcome any culture but it does not come to mind that they would change you and you should not be trying to change others either. Most us think like that i think. So i get she should vocalize here stance more but...come on ppl I think Amy is one of those people that want to stay true. Also as a native american...White people in general dont have the elders have higher status. Some call there grandma and mom and fathers by there name in Canada. I'm pretty sure it's like that other places too. The living with the mother nop SORRY But living off parents money is frowned upon.
I feel bad for that guy he really wanted that job, and it was actually a job he liked. Hopefully he finds a job soon. I agree with Amy about living with the in laws but she could have at least interacted with his family more. Like girl you know damn well if he was like that with your family you would be forcing him to interact with them. Smh at you Amy.
Amy’s Korean in-laws are one of the nicest ones I’ve seen on this show. Many other Korean in-laws on this show seem pretty rude, nag a lot, and act entitled. Amy should realize how lucky she is and learn to appreciate them more. I can’t imagine how her life would be if she had a more nagging korean Mother-in-law.
I live in Canada and sure the culture is different, but Amy really needs to check her attitude. Canada is a multicultural country so her excuses for her bad behaviour as just being Canadian, is bull. She keeps demanding respect yet she gives none. She annoys me. I feel bad for her husband.
When in Asia, learn to adapt the Asian way, Asian families values on togetherness and relying on each other as compared to more individualistic culture in the west. If there is no compromise and letting go, it will be hard to adapt
I feel bad for both Nir and Amy. Honestly I would never like to live in South Korea. As a vacation for 1-2 months yes, but living there all the time no. Marriage is about compromise, I feel like Koreans don't so that as much( though Amy's in laws seem nice and Amy is a bit hard headed) . I would like to see how the husband would do in Canada, I dislike man childs.
+Kuristaru Agreed! One has to be honest with themselves and think: could I live like that? And for me, no I couldn't. Hope Amy can return to Canada with or without her sulky husband.
She shouldn't have married him. She should marry another Canadian with similar values as hers. I am Canadian and we don't even behave like this. Total dysfunction
It's a little frutrating to see Amy being disrespectful with her husband's family. Also, she needs to understand that in Korea they are more attached to the family so they will meet often. But her husband also has to understand that is important for Amy that he can be more independient. I think they need to sit down and talk and realice that it's not because they don't mean well, I think they just don't underatand each other culture. So complicated...
amy is wrong but i think her husband also spoiled... he used to be feed and get all services from his parents and his sisters.. both has to work to compliance. change cannot be done overnight. it is a process which takes time
i think amy is just not interested in korean culture, because if she was she would've tried hard to get close to her in-laws. if she's been living in korea for more than 10 years then she would've learned more about how koreans are like and she wouldn't try to make her husband western style
frankly speaking... i really don't see problem with letting his sister selling those carnations at the gym... its not like she has to promote the sales of those flowers...
I could type an article on the things I think are in need of serious change when it comes to Amy. She acts like a spiteful, whiny child. Full of herself, she forces others to give way as if she's a ship cutting through foreign waters rather than a helpless person trying to survive in them. I feel sorry to Koreans who are burdened by this.
+shakira ledru I understand your point, but then they should have a work place and a private place where they live seperated so that they can come and see them somewhere else. I believe compromise is the key here, Amy has values and pride in being independent because this' is the way she survived and its obvious it would clash with her husband who acts like a child with his family. Each of them should be more open if they want to be understood too.
+tsedey89 they also live there? still, there's no point in seeing your adult son FOUR times a week. no one can be that needy. like come on, i agree amy was rude when they were at his mother's house and probably to his sister too but she was right about some things.
+keith yes they live their with their dogs, you can see it in the previous episode. anyway, I'm not saying it's all her fault. They should have their own privacy too I agree. They will deal with it their own way in next episode...
hey Amy if you live in someone country you need respect their culture. and when someone gives you food show gratefulness because they're trying to show you hospitality kind
+Oh Sehun That's actually sad to hear. Although they had problems, I thought they got along pretty well. I wonder if he would try to live in America for her. They were running a gym, so technically there isn't a big reason for them to stay in Korea. Of course, he has his family there, but Amy also has her family in Canada.
Yeongbin needs to learn to cook for himself. He says he has no experience, well get cracking to learn and stop trying to make others do things for you when you're capable of doing yourself. Go online and look at recipes. Both of them need to compromise, making once or twice a week Amy cooks for him, but he should learn to cook for himself and stop being lazy.
Amy is so rude and disrespectful to her inlaws who are so nice to her and really accepting. She she sto referring to Canada because she doesn't live there anymore. Her attitude towards family is so sad!
idk who needs to hear this but if ur a foreigner living in korea, ESPECIALLY if your white, I'm not saying you have to compromise but trying things out once or twice and then saying "I'm sorry thank you but its not for me. but I'm happy I tried it" is just common courtesy.
Even in Canada people treat their in laws with respect and kindness. once you marry into a family its yours. you should encourage it if they sell flowers or want to come and see you. obviously her father in law comes because thats his son and he's proud. idk where the F she lived in Canada but I'm from there and people are not like her. These are her own personal views, actions and personality. It is not like all Canadians, with how rude she is it seems more American to me. She definitely wasn't born and raised a Canadian, with the way she acts here....so unpolite and inconsiderate.
i am so late watching this...but does every Canadian act like Amy? i mean look at Emma's at previous episode...he's so polite. at least trying as polite as possible for he's only 3 yrs adapting to live in Korea. but Amy already lived for 10 years! When married to an Asian, you're married to their families too most likely.
Same about her complaining that they talk Korean, how about you learn Korean, she's been living there for half a decade, she couldn't make it in her country or what was the reason for coming to Korea? So annoying tbh
Amy needs self awareness. She actually hated/resented those people. Ughhh stop saying in Canada this in Canada that. It's a lie. Bone broth is eaten in Canada not thrown away. It's even sold in supermarkets, which was a surprise for me since I only grew up making it at home. Any way you slice it, this marriage was not going to work
Amy's in-laws are quite tolerant with her, considering the interracial couples you've seen so far and their korean in laws. They'd probably never accept the marriage in the first place
Amy is very rude and disrespectful to her in-laws. No respect for her husband or the country that she chose to live and has lived for 10 years. You have to compromise and don’t expect everyone to adapt to you whilst you don’t put an effort in yourself 😡
Amy is incredibly rude to her in-laws.

I would say both are equally childish. The husband still dunno how to be one.

reminds me of the korean students in canada they would say phrases like that heheh

Amy may be culturally insensitive and pretty stubborn at times but her husband is not doing anything to teach her the 'right' ways.
first she have to learn to respekt the family of her husband ...
She shows them plenty of respect. What you want is for her to bend to their will. You should build a time machine and go back to the 1950's where you belong.
+t is bend her will ?
if 1950 or 2015
respect is respect and she definitely
dont have any respect for the family. how she treat them is amazing

idk how she can be in korea and not know how rude that is to just speak to everyone that way
Amy Is so rude by Timing Her Husband Visit to his moms House 😈😈😈

a bit? Just a bit? I think its more than that
amy needs to adapt if she's gonna live in korea. not hating her but she needs to learn.
well, well..
1. Nir seems to get used pretty easy with the atmosphere when it is crowded. A job involving people interaction would be nice for him, I think.

I don't find her rude, she just looks like being rude as she is more a loner than a group person, imo.

Amy's mother in law seems nice. Amy should adapt little bit more to Korean culture especially when you're married to a person who is Korean.

I really dislike how Amy acts around her in laws. She needs to learn respect and Korean culture. It's common for Korean family members to come around often
I like Amy since her personality is very strong. Yes, she needs to be tough to survive in a foreign country. But, I do not take Amy's side. As I see, Youngbin's parents try to respect her lifestyle, then she should also do at least a little for them. My husband is an American born, he cannot make a proper conversation with my parents either. There are a lot of frustration going on among my parents, me and my husband since my parents do not speak English. However, my husband still thinks that it is right to scarify some of his to adjust with the culture and make everyone happy! I hope there will be a happy ending for everyone on the show :)
I got irritate when i saw amy's attitude.. She said she doesnt want her husbdand acts like a child, but come on in fact yeonbin is 4years younger than her! Ofcorz he acts like that..if a man marry a woman who is older than him it means that he is very close to his mother.. Come on amy,,you are live in S.K so act like one..
When you marry a korean you need to embrace the whole family because korean people love and respect their family a lot. She only thinks about her , she also needs to make a little concessions not trying to be always right and rude. She ignores her in laws, she’s making faces when she replies to them.
damn amy is hard with the in law ........... korean ppl must hate her so much :DD
If u live in korean u should accept to live like korean there otherwise u never gonna be accepted
I really wanted to smack her when they went to visit his mom. It's okay to feel uncomfortable around your in-laws, but she is down right rude. If you don't want more food then tell her that you are full in a polite way not "No. No. I don't want it." I also think it's a bit ridiculous that she is living in Korea and she refuses to eat the food. There are healthy conscious people in Korea too and I've seen them still find Korean food that is suitable to their diet. I do understand her part about the growing up part though. He needs to be more independent, but he should be allowed to be a momma's boy every once in a while. His mother won't be with him forever.
+TriciaPooh01 Keep talking big behind that computer screen. You wouldn't be able to smack her in real life.
+Rick Shane ...lmao. It's a figure of speech, smart one.
TriciaPooh01 My point still stands.
My problem with Amy is she chose to move there and get married to a Korean man. At least meet him half way and be respectful to her husband father. If you cook for yourself at least cook the foods he like, Amy wouldn't have to do it ( cook) everyday.
I don't understand why Amy is bothering for the side dishes his father brought? Since she and her husband can't cook she should be thankful for her father-in-law!
I understand that amy doesn't want to live with her Korean inlaws, neither would I. But if his Mum is nice enough to cut some fruit for you and is warm and welcoming towards you, show some respect and eat the damn fruit. Even if you are full.
Amy's husband has this comedic reaction face that I really find it cute ahahha He's giving me that Ryan Higa vibe gawd :)) ♥
6:04 😍 Cutest little girl ever, and very smart.
Amy is like trying to bend a metal using bare hands and she believes she has the ability when she is not. When you live in Rome, do it the Rome way girl!
amy will never go far anywhere behaving like that
I would divorce Amy 😒 she's so rude.
Amy is rude....disgusting behavior
Amy should understand that Asian generations often live together in the same house. In some countries, it's also a sign of being filial but its understandable that western families don't do that. In that case they should move out but maybe somewhere nearby the in laws so that they can visit often, no need to be all angry. It's so upsetting especially after seeing the father helping with the plants and bringing soup for her
Also, if you come to live in another country, one must adapt. Life is about adapting. You cannot come to a different country and still be stubborn about your "foreign" way. That is called colonialism. Adapt to the Korean way for respect. If you go to someones house, you don't do and say what you feel like out of respect for their place. Same thing.
Amy is awkward in a family setting, any family setting. I think it has to do with her family upbringing, her relation to her own family plus her personality. I think at this point in their marriage, she could extend herself a bit more to be a bit closer to the husband's family especially the parents. If they try to be closer with her, she can be gracious and meet them halfway. It's the decent thing to do since they're her family now (this is Korea after all)in a foreign land. It's not like they shun or ignore her. As for the food the parents bring to their workplace, even if she doesn't like them, just accept them without making faces (childish behavior imo). I'm sure the husband likes them since he doesn't get to eat home cooked Korean meals much. And she was rude to the sister about the flowers for Parent's Day. Even if she didn't like the situation sprung up to her, she shouldn't have shown her displeasure to the sister. It was her husband's fault for not letting her know in advance that he agreed to that arrangement.
amy is so rude to father in law and mother in law
Amy is just rude. It's not even a cultural thing. She said she doesn't want to be at her mother in law's house directly to her. Like what?? Her English sounds very weird too.
As a Canadian and this could be different for everyone...but as kid you learn that you should not want to be like anyone else. You should appreciate who you are and stay true to it. Like leafs on a tree :P We welcome any culture but it does not come to mind that they would change you and you should not be trying to change others either. Most us think like that i think. So i get she should vocalize here stance more but...come on ppl I think Amy is one of those people that want to stay true. Also as a native american...White people in general dont have the elders have higher status. Some call there grandma and mom and fathers by there name in Canada. I'm pretty sure it's like that other places too. The living with the mother nop SORRY But living off parents money is frowned upon.
She's rude...
I feel bad for that guy he really wanted that job, and it was actually a job he liked. Hopefully he finds a job soon. I agree with Amy about living with the in laws but she could have at least interacted with his family more. Like girl you know damn well if he was like that with your family you would be forcing him to interact with them. Smh at you Amy.
Amy should just adapt and understand her husband and the korean culture
Amy’s Korean in-laws are one of the nicest ones I’ve seen on this show. Many other Korean in-laws on this show seem pretty rude, nag a lot, and act entitled. Amy should realize how lucky she is and learn to appreciate them more. I can’t imagine how her life would be if she had a more nagging korean Mother-in-law.
I live in Canada and sure the culture is different, but Amy really needs to check her attitude. Canada is a multicultural country so her excuses for her bad behaviour as just being Canadian, is bull. She keeps demanding respect yet she gives none. She annoys me. I feel bad for her husband.
likes attract likes, Amy and Yeongbin are both stubborn and super similar, it's cute doe.
Omg did amy take time when they going to visit his mother...poor mother in law
lol that last scene was so corny and scripted. yeah..hes definitely gonna find Amy searching at night with a flashlight xD
Such a loving mother in law!Amy needs to adjust to korean culture!🇰🇷🇰🇷🇰🇷
When in Asia, learn to adapt the Asian way, Asian families values on togetherness and relying on each other as compared to more individualistic culture in the west. If there is no compromise and letting go, it will be hard to adapt
I feel bad for both Nir and Amy. Honestly I would never like to live in South Korea. As a vacation for 1-2 months yes, but living there all the time no. Marriage is about compromise, I feel like Koreans don't so that as much( though Amy's in laws seem nice and Amy is a bit hard headed) . I would like to see how the husband would do in Canada, I dislike man childs.
+Kuristaru Agreed! One has to be honest with themselves and think: could I live like that? And for me, no I couldn't. Hope Amy can return to Canada with or without her sulky husband.
She shouldn't have married him. She should marry another Canadian with similar values as hers. I am Canadian and we don't even behave like this. Total dysfunction
It's a little frutrating to see Amy being disrespectful with her husband's family. Also, she needs to understand that in Korea they are more attached to the family so they will meet often. But her husband also has to understand that is important for Amy that he can be more independient. I think they need to sit down and talk and realice that it's not because they don't mean well, I think they just don't underatand each other culture. So complicated...
amy is wrong but i think her husband also spoiled... he used to be feed and get all services from his parents and his sisters.. both has to work to compliance. change cannot be done overnight. it is a process which takes time
i think amy is just not interested in korean culture, because if she was she would've tried hard to get close to her in-laws. if she's been living in korea for more than 10 years then she would've learned more about how koreans are like and she wouldn't try to make her husband western style
i have no pity for her at all, she's so rude and absolutely disrespectful...
frankly speaking... i really don't see problem with letting his sister selling those carnations at the gym... its not like she has to promote the sales of those flowers...
I could type an article on the things I think are in need of serious change when it comes to Amy. She acts like a spiteful, whiny child. Full of herself, she forces others to give way as if she's a ship cutting through foreign waters rather than a helpless person trying to survive in them. I feel sorry to Koreans who are burdened by this.
My father in law coming to my working place four times a week no no no i will not accept it thats absorb i can actually understand Amy point
+shakira ledru I understand your point, but then they should have a work place and a private place where they live seperated so that they can come and see them somewhere else. I believe compromise is the key here, Amy has values and pride in being independent because this' is the way she survived and its obvious it would clash with her husband who acts like a child with his family. Each of them should be more open if they want to be understood too.
+tsedey89 they also live there? still, there's no point in seeing your adult son FOUR times a week. no one can be that needy. like come on, i agree amy was rude when they were at his mother's house and probably to his sister too but she was right about some things.
+keith yes they live their with their dogs, you can see it in the previous episode. anyway, I'm not saying it's all her fault. They should have their own privacy too I agree. They will deal with it their own way in next episode...
Amy definitely at wrong way at approaching husband and his family as she is not new to Korea..
hey Amy if you live in someone country you need respect their culture. and when someone gives you food show gratefulness because they're trying to show you hospitality kind
i feel sorry for amy, her husband is too childish
Btw, if anyone is interested: In August of this year Amy "permanently" left Korea.
+Oh Sehun what?! what happened? you're leaving us hanging lol
***** Nala D I believe they didn't divorce, but she did say on her facebook that she needed some time away and now she's working at a gym in Canada
that means they r divorced or planning to divorce
Oh Sehun damn. thanks for the info!
+Oh Sehun That's actually sad to hear. Although they had problems, I thought they got along pretty well. I wonder if he would try to live in America for her. They were running a gym, so technically there isn't a big reason for them to stay in Korea. Of course, he has his family there, but Amy also has her family in Canada.
I feel bad for her in laws. They try to be nice to her and all she did is being rude to them.
"I'll explain myself" lmao
Amy is so high maintenance
the Yeongbin guy disgust me after the scene that scenes when he opens his mouth waiting to be fed by his mom. it's like a manchild 🤦♂️
Yeongbin needs to learn to cook for himself. He says he has no experience, well get cracking to learn and stop trying to make others do things for you when you're capable of doing yourself. Go online and look at recipes. Both of them need to compromise, making once or twice a week Amy cooks for him, but he should learn to cook for himself and stop being lazy.
I know Jinu from drama Modern Farmer . Hoho
에이미 힘내요...
Amy is so rude and disrespectful to her inlaws who are so nice to her and really accepting. She she sto referring to Canada because she doesn't live there anymore. Her attitude towards family is so sad!
idk who needs to hear this but if ur a foreigner living in korea, ESPECIALLY if your white, I'm not saying you have to compromise but trying things out once or twice and then saying "I'm sorry thank you but its not for me. but I'm happy I tried it" is just common courtesy.
Wow Amy is incredibly rude to her mother-in-law. Have some respect atleast.
Even in Canada people treat their in laws with respect and kindness. once you marry into a family its yours. you should encourage it if they sell flowers or want to come and see you. obviously her father in law comes because thats his son and he's proud. idk where the F she lived in Canada but I'm from there and people are not like her. These are her own personal views, actions and personality. It is not like all Canadians, with how rude she is it seems more American to me. She definitely wasn't born and raised a Canadian, with the way she acts here....so unpolite and inconsiderate.
i am so late watching this...but does every Canadian act like Amy? i mean look at Emma's at previous episode...he's so polite. at least trying as polite as possible for he's only 3 yrs adapting to live in Korea. but Amy already lived for 10 years!
When married to an Asian, you're married to their families too most likely.
amy is really rude
Same about her complaining that they talk Korean, how about you learn Korean, she's been living there for half a decade, she couldn't make it in her country or what was the reason for coming to Korea? So annoying tbh
Amy is so rude towards her in laws.i really dislike her behavior
Amy needs self awareness. She actually hated/resented those people. Ughhh stop saying in Canada this in Canada that. It's a lie. Bone broth is eaten in Canada not thrown away. It's even sold in supermarkets, which was a surprise for me since I only grew up making it at home. Any way you slice it, this marriage was not going to work
I hate it how yeongbin is such a mama boy
I hope this guy husband of amy she need to teach korean culture.. teach to cook korean foood
Amy is so rude to her parents-in-law
she can cook easy dishes i mean
im sorry amy...but you are so rude😔 with his family...
i thought i saw Vice Ganda on thumbnail? Any Filipino here? lols
this time, I really don't like both.
Amy's in-laws are quite tolerant with her, considering the interracial couples you've seen so far and their korean in laws. They'd probably never accept the marriage in the first place
amy needs to learn to respect elders i feel sorry for yongbins parents and sisters
amy treat very badly they want to with amy but she all the time ignore
Amy is very rude and disrespectful to her in-laws. No respect for her husband or the country that she chose to live and has lived for 10 years. You have to compromise and don’t expect everyone to adapt to you whilst you don’t put an effort in yourself 😡
Amy is ambidextrous lol
Amy you are the bad one here. That's sooo rude.
That's why you learn to adapt!! I hate amy!
the boxing match on may. now is november. i dont get it.
lol
I wonder if they still together
