Korean-French manicure

I speak three words in Korean, and even those I pronounce poorly. So, it is no surprise that there is often a failure to communicate when I try to express myself to Koreans who also have a limited grasp of a second language.
The other day I was getting a pedicure and the girl doing it asked if I wanted pink. I said, "no, french." This was the result:

Surprisingly, this did not seem unusual to any Koreans- they often get this in blue, green, even a tiny rainbow stripe. I kept it like this for a few days, until my friend Tyler said it looked like I was bleeding out through my nails. That's hot!
