概要
Is being "efficient" romantic... or just scary? 💔
In Mainland China, dating is often about efficiency: if you like someone, you throw a "Straight Ball" (Zhíqiú). But in Taiwan? Being that direct can get you labeled a "Straight Man Cancer." Instead, you need to master the art of "Ambiguity" (Àimèi).
In this episode, Kevin and Yun Yun dissect the "Romance War" between the North and South. We explain why "acting cute" (Sājiāo) is a survival skill in Taipei, while "Earthy Love Words" rule in Beijing.
