I've lived in Korea for the past 2 years and the above post sums-up Korean culture better than any other that I've seen. It is the same for them in every walk of life. They don't want things done correctly they want it done due to procedure. This is instilled in them during their formative years where they suffer the horrors of the Korean education system. They are incredibly nationalistic and proud as this is the first thing taught to them in schools and some possess a healthy disregard and fear of foreigners. That being said, they are in the minority these days and a lot of Koreans are great. The education system teaches students the answer rather than why it's the answer leading to a nation that don't question things, ask why or mistrust what they hear. A truly dangerous thought when put in charge of an aeroplane.
