E, who's South Korean:
The first things they'd ask would be, "What's your name?", and next, "What's your age?"
YC:
But that's...does that mean guys in your country don't date noona (a.k.a. older girls)?
E:
Well, very few...
YC & me:
Ahh...(*both currently fangirling over younger stars-which is not the point, but still)
E:
But the thing is, if you're still in your 20s, it's better than being in your 30s (E is in her 30s) EVERY GUY likes 20 something girls. It's so frustrating!
YC:
How so?
E:
The under-20s, or teenagers, like 20something girls. Guys in their 20s, like 20something girls. Guys in their 30s and above, *still* like 20something girls. So that's why, we should always keep our age a secret once you're no longer 20something.
Me:
Uhh, a.k.a. Alan Tam's 'forever 25' thing? I think I'm kinda getting the gist of that.
YC:
*guffaws* hahhhhh!!!
E:
Who's that?
YC:
It's this HK entertainer who once famously proclaimed that he's 'forever 25 years old'. He's 50 now.
me:
I guess, we should all revel in whatever remaining years in our 20something lives. Gasp, that's not a lot of that left! Gahhh!!!!
YC:
Yeah, before 2012 comes (she just watched the movie)!
A, YC & me:
Ahh, and we haven't even got a boyfriend....
I try to think the grass is greener this side of the garden.
