Have you ever met a coworker, neighbour, or someone you know in jimjilbang ?
​
I'm F27 recently moved to Korea . I’m still getting used to the jimjilbang . I went to a jimjilbang yesterday. Something unexpected happened—I ended up running into a coworker of mine there. We both are South Asian and it felt especially awkward for me because we suddenly saw each other in a completely different (and very exposed) setting. I didn’t really know how to react, and I felt quite embarrassed in the moment. We just kind of smiled and awkwardly moved away .
Is this a common thing here? Have you ever unexpectedly met a coworker, neighbour, or someone you know in
jimjilbang – especially when everyone is nude? How do koreans usually handle this? Do you just pretend it didn't happen afterwards ?
