Evan TS#5

Hyo Song and I talked about slang terms during our meeting. This included terms like "icy" or "cozy" to describe different "fits" that people are wearing. I didn't know how hard it would be to come up with slang words on the spot. I also taught him terms like "throwing shade" which took a bit of explaining for him to fully understand. I told him to watch a few new tv shows on Netflix and to bring me terms or sayings that he didn't understand. Hyo Song informed me that when I go to South Korea I might consider using a Korean name because the locals like it when Americans change their name. For example, he uses the name Josh in the U.S. because it is easier to understand. After our meeting I talked to a few friends about slang terms and they reminded me that Twitter has a wealth of slang that people use both ironically and unironically.
