One of the surprising things foreigners experience in Korea is that they get touched
or bumped in crowded places.
Most Koreans don't worry about touching or bumping into strangers in the street.
Some foreigners complain about it.
Why don't Koreans say "Sorry!" or "Excuse me!" when they touch or bump others?
One main reason is that Koreans have been living as one race and they are not
used to other races.
Another reason is that Seoul has become one of the busiest cities in the world due
to rapid growth.
If Koreans said 'I'm sorry.' Whenever they touch others, they would have to say this
dozens of times a day.
Koreans become accustomed to this 'touch culture' in childhood.
Kids always walk hand in hand with their parents, arm in arm with close friend.
Also many Korean women do the same when they walk with their female friends.
Dancing with the same sex is very normal in Korea.
These are some of the most curious things for some Westerners.
Of course most of them are not homosexual. |
