Patil even joked that there is always “this taxi Ajusshi (uncle) in Korea”, who asks bizarre questions. She said she often had the “wildest conversations” in a taxis, but decided to record it.

The video begins with the taxi driver who asked Patil in Korean where she came from, and she replied India, but the driver claimed that he did not know where that was. She also explained that India is near China and near Pakistan.

“Indonesia?” He replies and tries to correct them. She giggled about his answer and says: “No, India or Indo.”

“There is something called India. How is the population?” He asks and does not believe that the country exists.

Take a look at the video here:

To the surprise of the taxi driver, she replies that India is the most populous country in the world. “Even more than China,” she adds and draws a surprised scream from the driver.

“China has 1.3 billion people,” he countered, but adds that the population of India is higher.

“Then it has to be India,” he replies in Korean and finally realizes the country that she was talking about.

Then he asks her why she was in South Korea and whether she studied at an Indian or Korean university.

The video was enjoying many on Instagram, which were confused by the unsuspecting answers from the taxi driver. “Has he faked it or he really didn't know anything about India, I think it is difficult to believe,” said a user.

Another user said: “I get the same reactions when I tell people that I grew up in India. Since it is Chinese, they mix India with Indonesia and find it difficult to process facts.”
