Hi, I'm Eric from South Korea.
We have a traditional belief that guys should buy foods for girls on a date.
I will have a blind date with a girl tonight and I am not sure if I should pay for dinner.

What do you guys think?
What have you told her about where you'll be going on this date? Is it for dinner? Just coffee or drinks? Snacks while attending a concert, sports event, or other activity? If she expects you to follow tradition I would plan to pay. Unless you've already discussed this with her that would be the polite thing to do IMHO. She could tell you she's happy to split the cost.

Yes, to this.
If you offer to take somebody out on a date, you pay. It is okay to discuss plans not necessarily to see if she will split the cost, but to see how she responds.
If she offers to split the cost or even to pay, you can accept this. Otherwise, assume to pay. Also, if she offers to pay, you can offer to pay for the next time in return. Whether there actually is a next time or not is up to both of you.

Yes, you should by her dinner.
Since she’s blind I would help her to your car as well.

If you're in South Korea AND men traditionally pay on the first date AND she's expecting you to pay on the first date, then yeah, you're probably going to have to pony up.
If any of those things aren't true, then you may have some wiggle room.
