thought the same thing
Doesn't matter. About 98% of Koreans lack the gene that determines if you have body odour. So, he while he may be sweaty, statically, he wouldn't smell like it.
Really?
Yup. It's the ABCC11 gene or something. Apparently people find it difficult even finding deodorant in Korea. It's a gene 2% of the rest of us lack, and 98% of Koreans lack. Sounds fair, right?
Wow, I didn't know that. I wish I was like that too.
Stink-free armpits for all!!!
I'm confused cuz I just searched that up and it says only a lucky 2% have that gene not the other way around but then another article stated most East Asians have the gene which also correlates with dry ear wax. But then again that article didn't seem to trustworthy just based on the website: http://blogs.discovermagazine.com/gnxp/2010/10/east-asians-dry-earwax-and-adaptation/#.WxwTF-4vyUk Its a blog type of website so...
I feel like you have all the information, but just can't seem to make sense of it.
'While only 2 percent of Europeans lack the genes for smelly armpits, most East Asians and almost all Koreans lack this gene, Day told LiveScience."

Ultimately, it's easily verifiable, and this is a lot more talking about sweat than I originally intended when I left such a offhand comment. So, I'm out.
Wonder if Alex stink of sweat
