| Cultural Insight |
| Becky: Now it's time for a quick cultural insight. |
| Kyejin: When you introduce yourself in Korea, it's polite to make a small bow. If you’re a guy, bow with your hands at your sides. If you’re a girl, bow while clasping your hands in front of you. Bow from the waist. You don't have to dip down very far. |
