삼 [sam]= Three, 3
Like others Korean labmates, I’m wearing slipper in my laboratory for more comfortable while working long hours in lab. The slipper is really cheap which you can buy in any convenience shop at around 2000 Won and is widely wore by Korean.
One afternoon, my Korean labmate talked to me.
Korean: Hey 즈민, you are wearing Samdidas.
Me: Ah ??? Samdidas? *blur face* *wat the hell is samdidas*
Korean: Do you know Adidas?
Me: Yes. why ??
Korean: You are wearing “Korean Adidas” which is Samdidas.
Me: ahh ?? Why Samdidas? *more confused face*
Korean: Because Adidas has 3 lines on its shoes and the slipper u are wearing has 3 lines too.
So we personally called it Samdidas.Me: LOL !! Sam(3) + adidas?? *fainted* =.=”‘
Korean: Yes. Samdidas.
Let’s see how the so-called Samdidas looks like…………………
