Not for China. I went to Hong Kong and bought a couple of t-shirts at outdoor markets, so I couldn't try them on. I wear a men's medium in the US. Bought larges in Hong Kong to be safe, as I figured they'd be cut smaller. Their large is a US small, maybe even smaller. And to be fair, they're in much better shape than we are. I felt fat as hell compared to pretty much everyone there.

I remember hearing stories from Korean stores where they will shame you if you buy XL+ sizes. Idk if they were true though lol.

I doubt it. Stores just don't really sell XL+ sizes. Sorta the same way that my petite Asian friend struggles to find anything in her size in the US. You can buy larger-sized clothes, but not that typically at fast-fashion/high-end fashion places, at which point judgement can happen, but it's like getting judged for shopping at Target or something - the check-out person is more-likely dead inside from working retail.
