The hardest-working people are...the Koreans. I could have told you that. These people need a month-long vacation. I doubt the fairly recent five-day work-week is sufficient. It has been my experience that people would take an hour to two hour long trip home after putting twelve to sixteen hours of work in. Leaving when the boss leaves is unheard of. The titles still confound me. While in Canada, many take liberties and refer to someone they've just met or an older person by a familiar name. Not so in Korea. There are titles for the home and workplace. They exist everywhere.
I respected (and still respect) the South Koreans for their work ethic. However, rest is just as therapeutic as earning a day's wage.
