Korean people

For Koreans, family holds special significance and is an inalienable value in their consciousness. Family members live in the same house or live fairly close together. The oldest man is the head of the family, respected and obeyed by everyone. The important holidays for every Korean family are Chusok (Mid-Autumn Festival), wedding ceremony or Tol (birthday ceremony).

Koreans are known to be friendly and approachable. That is also a reason why Korean tourism culture is so loved. Almost anywhere, you see people talking to each other, sometimes even talking to people they just met. This shows that their sense of community has gone beyond the family.

In their spare time, Koreans love to travel. For the elderly, famous palaces and national parks are favorites. As for young people, they eat together on the street, meet at cafes, shops or cinemas.
