another example is from Korea: 'mu-dari' -- 'radish legs'
Generally directed at women (though not always), and never complimentary.
It bears mentioning that mu are not the tiny red radishes that commonly are grown in the US, but one of the (for lack of a better term from a USn perspective) Asian radishes, often sold as 'daikon' (which is Japanese).
