why's Poignant Guide To Ruby in Korean

For a double dose of language learning and kimchi breath, read the Korean translation of Poignant Guide. I haven’t yet read this particular translation, but I wonder how some of why’s humor gets through to Koreans. According to leftsider (because I simply can’t stomach watching the stuff myself), Korean comedy on film tends to focus on behaviors given a social context instead of punchlines. Will readers be compelled to procure a Blixy Tee on the mirth merits of “chunky. bacon.”? Only time will tell.
