They also have a culture of strict compliance and almost absolute NO questioning of authority, even to teh point of death. See lesson learned from Korean Air crashes.
They aren’t multicultural.
Agreed. See my post above. We have challenges that aren’t even in their universe.
The only thing negative they have that we don’t is a closer geographical proximity to China, but virus transmission mechanisms and ubiquitous air travel make that almost moot.
All eastern cultures do have this, but South Korea is perhaps the most free and democratic of all eastern Asian nations.
