Even the interviewer was shocked…

A video showing an American tourist’s alarming encounter in Korea has gained significant attention on YouTube, sparking debate and prompting a wave of reactions.
The video was shared on the “IamfromKorea” channel, a platform known for its street interviews with international visitors to discuss their opinions and experiences in the country. With nearly half a million subscribers, the channel focuses on showcasing various perspectives on life in Korea.
In the video, the YouTuber asked the visitor (referred to as A) to share the most surprising thing he experienced during his stay. “A” recounted an incident in which she and her friend (also a foreigner) were on a street in daylight when a Korean man approached them after coming down from a second-floor apartment.
According to A, the man made a comment that began with “three of us (…)”, and parts of his words were censored in the video. The context suggested he was making an inappropriate proposition. The woman said he asked for a threesome by pointing at himself and the two girls and holding up three fingers.
A explained that she and her friend were so shocked by the situation that they quickly left. When the YouTuber asked if the conversation was in English or Korean, A confirmed that it was in Korean. To illustrate his point, he showed the YouTuber three fingers, implying that he believed the man’s intention was to propose a threesome.
The YouTuber hypothesized that it may have been a misunderstanding, perhaps an invitation to have lunch together. Although A recognized this as a potential explanation, she remained doubtful. He shared that such an incident would be unheard of in his conservative hometown in the United States, which strengthened his suspicions about the man’s intentions.
The video attracted a wave of responses and sparked heated debates in the comments section. Although some comments suggested that A might have misinterpreted the situation, the overall tone tended towards skepticism and criticism towards the man.
