American K-sisters미국에서 친구 만들기 & MBTI 유형별 친구 사귀는 팁, Ep.12원래 살던 곳을 떠나 멀리 이사를 갔을 때 적응해야 하는 것 중 제일 힘든 점은, 바로 새로운 친구를 사귀는 것이 아닐까요? 심지어 언어와 문화가 다른 곳으로, 게다가 어른이 된 이후에 이사를 하게 되면, 학교와 같은 공동체 생활이 없다보니 더더욱 어려움이 많습니다.
이번 에피소드에서는 미국사는 언니들이 지난 10년 또는 20년 미국에 거주하는 동안 어떻게 새로운 사람들을 만나고 친구관계로 발전을 시켜왔는지, 또 MBTI E의 대표주자 린다언니와 I의 대표주자 희나언니는 어떻게 다른 방식으로 사교활동을 하는지 이야기를 나누어 보았습니다. Let’s hang out!
Making friends is not easy. It can be quite difficult when you move to a new place and do not know anyone, especially in a country where you did not grow up. Being an adult, we cannot get help of belonging to a social group such as school.
In this episode, American K-sisters talk about how they met new people and made friends over the last 10 or 20 years after they had moved to the United States. Also, what are the different ways extrovert Linda and introvert Heena use to socialize? Let’s find out!

American K-sisters귀요미 털친구들과의 집사생활 & 보호소 봉사활동 이야기, Ep.11미국에서는 ‘대부분의 사람들에게 팬데믹 동안에 생긴 세가지' 가 있는데요, 바로 puppies, babies, and an air fryer (강아지, 아이, 에어프라이어) 입니다. (출처: 희나언니^^). 이런 말이 생길 정도로 지난 2년 동안 미국에서는 애완동물 입양에 대한 수요가 급증했고, 희나언니도 이 트렌드에 한 몫하게 되었어요. 랜선집사인 린다언니는 팬데믹 전부터 시작해서 지금까지 약 8년 가까이 유기동물 보호소에서 꾸준히 동물 친구들을 돌봐주고 있구요. 이번 에피소드에서는 우리들의 귀요미 털친구들과의 좌충우돌 집사생활과 보호소 봉사활동 이야기를 나누어 보았습니다.
애완동물, 사지말고 입양하세요! Adopt, don’t shop!
What did we get during the pandemic? Puppies, babies, and an air fryer. (Not American K-sisters though.) It is true that a lot more people than usual got new companion animals at the beginning of the pandemic. Heena followed the suit and adopted a cat for the first time in her life. Linda can’t afford having any, so she virtually follows all sorts of animals in other families and also volunteers her time at a local animal shelter. In this episode, we talk about infinitely adorable furry friends and our unforgettable moments with them. Adopt, don’t shop!

American K-sisters불고기부터 후라이드 치킨, 강남스타일부터 BTS까지, 미국전역을 뜨겁게 달구는 한류 Ep.10불고기부터 후라이드 치킨, 그리고 강남스타일부터 BTS까지, 미국에서 한국문화가 널리 알려지고 큰 인기를 끈지도 거의 10년이 다 되어가네요. 최근에는 한국영화와 드라마까지 큰 관심과 사랑을 받고 있어서, 미국사는 언니들은 오히려 비한국인 지인들에게서 한국콘텐츠를 추천받고 있는 상황이라는 것, 믿겨지시나요? 이번 에피소드에서는 미국을 휩쓸고 있는 한류덕에 K-덕질을 시작하게 된 저희들의 이야기를 담아보았습니다.
K-wave has been around in the USA for over a decade by now: from Korean barbeque to fried chicken, to Gangnam Style, to BTS. In more recent years, K-film and K-drama have also gotten very popular, so much that Heena and Linda get recommendations of what to watch from non-Korean friends. In this episode, American K-sisters talk about their experiences of becoming K-pop fans thanks to the K-wave that is setting a non-stoppable fire across the nation.
