About Korean life!


In my culture, people say "Hi" "How are you?" so introductions are

similar to English. Korean are not different from American English.

Nothing is peculiar, but Korean words are not easy for Americans to say.



In my culture, smiling and shaking hands are different.

I am thinking that is, because Koreans think much of the proprieties.

Then when they say hello, they don't kiss and hug.

And I think Americans often smile, but Koreans do not often smile.

In my culture, customs for men and women are different.

Korean men are conservative and Korean women are generous.

In former days, men were nobler than women, and

this custom is hand down till now.




In my culture , this topic is in short. an young person is too open-hearted and
an older person is too closed-hearted. Then we need to discover new things by studying the past
For example, the older person will say "hello" but an young person will just wave.


For instead, one foreigner went to the Korean and he rode the subway, but he was suprised because

Korean people usually use to do together such as news paper but the foreigner was suprised that

action.

Also sat Korean people sometimes carry to the front people's a package(But always within the

purview of old people), but the forigner was confused that, he throught, that person steal my
package. But, when you visit the Korea and when you ride Korean sunway. Don't fear the this

situation!
The older person is more formal and an young person is informal.
