An Instagram video featuring Indian content creator Neha Arora and her Korean husband, Jongsoo Lee, has gone viral for blending K-drama charm with Indian humor. The video, showcasing a language challenge, has amassed over 1.4 million views.
In the clip, Arora begins by introducing the challenge, saying, “Let’s check my husband’s Hindi skills,” before showing Lee, who is holding their baby, various pictures of objects and asking him to name them in Hindi.
Lee impressively identifies a spoon as “chammach,” but hilarity ensues when presented with a picture of slippers. He confidently says, “Yeh bilkul aasaan, thappad!” When Arora questions, “Thappad?” Lee humorously clarifies, “Thappad with chappal,” leaving viewers in splits.
The humor continues as Arora shows a picture of a mosquito. Lee, quick to respond, jokes, “I know, I know, She is like you na, macchar,” eliciting more laughter.
