Eh. Not really. They're just really good at putting on the saving face show.

Trust me. This is not about saving face. Koreans are great at shaming and those being shamed really do feel it. Completely different culture from here

Apparently what she did wasn't that bad.


She caused a flight to be delayed & eventually cancelledbecause she was an Airline execs daughter. How many obligations postponed/cancelled because of her pettiness & assumed privileges?

I live in Korea. I'm aware of the differences in Korean culture ad American culture. I stand by what I said. So much is about saving face and very little is about true personal responsibility.

Well I am Korean and I think youre only partially right. Sure it's to save face. But that's the secondary reason.
