Following Nicolia's Post

After being enlightened by Nicolia's article (check it out below!), I did some research of my own.
Guess what I found?

Yes. So I discovered that apparently which part of the bungeoppang (붕어빵) you eat first reflects your character... your true self. No really. Well, this may be as true as any of those horoscopes that those of you out there many enjoy (I personally enjoy reading them too. I amuse myself by picking out the things that are actually true and obviously overlook those that don't really fit). Since I know many of you may not understand, I have dragged my tired fingers away from the (Korean) cookies I was eating and begun typing up the translation into English. But hey, I can't let you guys out of the fun, right?
Enjoy.

1 To those who choose the dorsal (the top spines/fin):

Rather than socializing with people, you like solitary activities, eg. reading a book or self meditation/contemplation. You are a very sweet person, easily swayed by and sympathetic to the stray animals you see. As you are such a compassionate and sensitive person, you may even be more inclined towards the arts, and demonstrate clear artistic sensibility.

2 To those who choose the head:

You are the sanguine, happy-go-lucky type consumer who disregards small details.On the other side you are also quite competitive and tenacious, unwilling to give in to another person's views. You are also quite straightforward, saying all of your thoughts and quick to flare up in anger. Yet you are a strong leader, and are quick to resolve your anger, so all in all if you pay a little attention to your character you can live quite a happy life.

3 To those who chose the stomach:

You are quite a masculine character, quite active and participating in a variety of activities (including regular exercise). You are lively and bright, have high sociability and consequently have many friends (quite popular, actually). However you are not prone to rejecting people's requests and can thus find yourself in distressing situations.

4 To those who break the fish in half and choose the head:
You are a person with great fortitude - once you set your mind to something you will definitely achieve it. You are also very strong at sports and people consider you a formidable opponent. You are also quite sensitive to financial aspects and are thus quite hesitant with lending or borrowing money. However your bright nature and the way you always put in 110% clearly serves as your strong point.


5 To those who choose the tail:
You have great consideration for others and always look before you leap. You are quick to share and give even the smallest things, and demonstrate a platonic approach to most relationships and promote candid conversations. You also know how to dress up well, and can be quite attractive/good looking. However you also have a bit of a ignorant side where you may not realize that somebody has a crush on you. Please take more care and pay attention to these people!


6 To those who break the fish in half and choose the tail side:
You are very well-mannered and have great consideration for your friends and family and thus receive a lot of trust from them. You also have a great sense of financial management, and can earn nice sums of money. However, when an important decision is necessary you can have weak judgement and be quite hesitant. Just make sure that every choice is well thought out and  done properly, and there you are fine!
