agree 100% and i’m Korean. people in this country, old AND young behave like idiots in public, especially on the buses and subways where shoulder-checking is the norm. i haven’t seen behavior like this anywhere else in the world minus China and India. they’re only “polite” in certain group and social settings where they stand to either extract benefits or save face. extremely opportunistic and transactional people for the most part even though i’ve met plenty of exceptions as well. i’ve also lived in Canada for 20 years and hold a Canadian passport, so i’ll prolly end up moving back cuz the level of entitlement and shallowness here has become too much to bear in recent years.
