“Is someone that’s 173 cm tall considered short…?

– (OP) By the way, I’m talking as a man

– I’m also 173

– Isn’t it the average?

– Yup

– It’s average

– You can think of it as being as ‘entrance exams grade 5’ (T/N: it’s a meme among Koreans which means that “the average Korean’s mental intelligence is grade 5 or below”. Koreans use this meme to describe something that’s not above average)

> (OP) Saying it like this kinda makes it seem like a loser

> ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ

– ㅋㅋㅋㅋ entrance exam grade 5ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ

1. That’s shortㅠㅠ

2. Isn’t our country’s average height tall for Asians?

3. It’s average but our average went up from 173 to 174. Being in the 160’s is short and 170’s is average. Starting from the upper 170’s, you’re considered tall

4. I like it

5. In my standards, it’s short..ㅋㅋㅋ because I’m also 173

6. 173 is the average? It’s indeed short

7. If you have good proportions, you can look tall but if not, you’ll just look average

8. It’s average but it looks small because we’re filled with men over 180 on TV

9. Isn’t it short?… there are also way more men in the 160’s than I thought… girls in the 160’s are never viewed as short though

10. It’s short
