American and Korean TV are known to have significant content differences. Most American television shows contain explicit or graphic content, including nudity, sex scenes, violence, and profanity. While some K-Dramas, especially from Netflix, are comparable, the average K-Drama is much more “wholesome.”

Yet, it’s not the explicit content that left Soobin shocked.

During his live broadcast, he noted, “When I watch American shows, I get really shocked when they wear shoes indoors. Do they really do that?” He asked Hueningkai, who is from Hawaii, to translate his question into English so that American MOAs could respond.

The two read the American MOAs’ comments. They saw a variety of responses. Some wore shoes indoors at their home, while others took them off.

It depends on the household, but it is certainly more common in American homes.
