South Korea Culture Korean society is based on the tenets of Confucianism, a system of ethics developed in China around 500 BC. Confucianism is big on devotion and respect - for parents, family, friends and those in positions of authority. Confucius also emphasised justice, peace, education, reform and humanitarianism. Many Koreans attribute their country's remarkable success in recent decades to this attitude. In modern Korean society, Confucianism is most noticeable in relations between people. The Five Relationships prescribe behaviour between ruler and subject, father and son, husband and wife, old and young, and between friends. If you fall outside any of these relationships, you do not, effectively, exist. Many travellers to Korea find the locals rude: they're probably not; chances are they just haven't noticed you. Once you're introduced to someone, you'll fall within the rules for friends and things will start looking up. The South Koreans have turned their hand to just about any art form you can name. Traditional music is similar to that of Japan and China, with an emphasis on strings. The two main forms are the stately chongak and the folksier minsogak . Among the folk dances are drum dances ( mugo - a hectic, lively court dance where the participants wear drums around their necks), mask dances (

news Plans to promote South Korea's dog meat culture suspended (01/14/2002) (Agencies) A scheduled rally Monday to promote dog meat in South Korea was suspended after organizers could not find a venue because of protests by animal rights activists. Hundreds of dog meat restaurateurs had planned to hold the rally at an auditorium belonging to a telecommunications office in Ilsan near Seoul but were forced to suspend it after being denied access to it. The local office of KT Corp., South Korea's largest telephone operator, told the ralliers last weekend that it could not lease its facility because of hundreds of protest phone calls. The rally was intended as a protest against an expected government crackdown on dog meat restaurants ahead of this year's soccer World Cup to be co-hosted by South Korea and Japan from May 31-June 30. Japanese don't eat dog meat. KT said it had agreed to lease its facility in November only after being told that the rally was to promote start-up businesses. There was no mention of dog meat, it said. ``It's nonsense that a government-affiliated company let its facility be used to promote dog meat,'' Yoon Han-kyong, an animal rights activist, said on SBS-TV.

Search New-Age Ki Culture Lures Christians in South Korea Author: Publication: ZENIT.org Date: February 23, 2001 Catholic Church Warns About Its Faulty Religious Ideas The Church in South Korea is warning Catholics about the Ki culture, a New Age-style movement that mixes health programs with faulty religious ideas. Last month, Seoul's Auxiliary Bishop Peter Kang sent a memorandum to all clergy and religious in the archdiocese, warning about the ambiguity and danger posed by Ki culture. Bishop Kang is concerned about Catholics, including clergy and religious, who go to Ki Centers, and he emphasized the need for discernment. "When Ki formation touches the religious realm, going beyond its dimension which is health promotion, it becomes dangerous," the bishop wrote. "If they use Ki training as a means of improving health, then I have nothing to say," he continued. "However, if they insist that people can reach salvation by themselves, this is a serious mistake, because salvation cannot be obtained by any human efforts or techniques, it can only be [received from] God." His memorandum further stated: "Priests and religious who have contact with Ki culture, believing that it helps them for meditation or health, should act with discernment, recalling that their attitude can bring confusion to the Christian life."

If you're interested in traditional or contemporary painting, sculpture, music, dance, or drama, you will never lack for places to visit in South Korea. In addition, South Korea is an active competitor in worldwide sporting events, with many first-class sporting facilities around Seoul and Pusan. Printing and Literature One of Korea's great achievements was the 15th-century invention of Hangul, the Korean phonetic alphabet. Hangul is relatively easy to learn, with 24 letters that are combined into blocks of syllables. The accessibility of Hangul has contributed to Korea's high literacy rate. Another great Korean innovation was the first use of movable metal type, in 1234. Korea's long literary history grew not only from its innovations in printing, but through the tradition of telling folk tales and legends at festivals and other gatherings. These stories outlined the kingdom's mythical origins and stressed Korean values. The National Folklore Museum in Seoul preserves an extensive collection of Korean cultural and folklore relics.

Business Attire GREETINGS AND COURTESIES BUSINESS ETHIC AND FRAMEWORK Koreans are generally highly disciplined and hard-working, but they can also be distrustful of outsiders and extremely nationalistic. Korean behavior is largely determined by Confucianism, which teaches respect for superiors, duty to family, loyalty to friends, humility, sincerity, and courtesy. Workers generally respect the companies they work for and are driven to help their business succeed. Among coworkers, people of higher status and age are respected by those beneath them, and are deferred to in speech and action. Business friends trust and respect each other, and help each other succeed. Employees work hard and are generally efficient and productive. Management styles are a combination of Confucianism and Western behavior, depending on an individual's background. Generally, business is conducted formally, with great value placed on punctuality, efficiency, and thriftiness. DECISION MAKING Koreans make it a point never to act as individuals but to have group cohesion. Before any action is taken or a decision made, there must be consensus from everyone involved. This is reached by circulating written memos that must receive everyone's approval. Koreans try not to say no or deliver bad news. If a project or negotiation develops problems, no one will want to admit there are difficulties and it may be necessary to look for subtle signs that something has gone wrong.
