10 Nov Get Close to Your Oppa as South Korea Allows Visa-Free Entry to Filipinos

Ever since the first Korean dramas were aired in the Philippines, the Korean wave has taken Filipino binge-watching to a different level and certainly since then, the rich and multifaceted culture of Koreans and Korea itself have well seated into a part of our own.

In fact, some of our shows here in the Philippines are an adaptation from Korean shows like, the popular game show I Can See Your Voice hosted by Luis Manzano which is a Filipino adaptation of the South Korean game show of the same title.

Many have been taken into a frenzy by the hottest challenge in the world, the Spicy Noodle Challenge, a challenge where people film themselves attempting to complete a bowl of Buldak Bokkeum Myeon,  a hot chicken-flavored ramen variety of the ramyeon Korean instant noodle dish.

And of course, who doesn’t know what OPPA means? In the Korean language, Oppa is a term that is used by Korean girls to refer to a man who is older but not less than about 10 years of her. In the Philippines, “oppa” refers to a guy that girls (and girls at heart) find attractive. And in order for you to become an oppa you should have the qualities of these oppa of Korean dramas:
