Hi today i am going to talk about some familiar etiquette in Korea.When watching Korean dramas ,we easily notice that Korean citizens always live a regular life according to a set of life etiquette.As a foreigner ,sometimes we just enjoy their elegant and polite manners or sometimes we may feel those rules are a little bit stupid.They may talk in a way that may remind us of the relationship between master and servant because of seniority rules.They may eat in a way that bring us a good appetite.Today i am going to share with you some of the seniority rules and eating etiquette ,and at the end of my presentation, i will show my opinion.Seniority rules When watching Korean dramas, we may be curious about the seniority rules and find them very strict.Language etiquette
Korean pay a lot of attention to generation.The language they speak is divided into 3 kinds--honorific language ,half-honorific language and common language.When you meet someone for the first time ,you should ask his age first to make sure the hierarchy, which is totally different from western culture.If he is older than you, you should use honorific.In traditional Korean family ,the host ,who is always the father or grandfather ,is the symbol of power and everyone should speak honorific to them.Half-honorific language is the most impolite.Because of is ambitiousne.And common language appears in the communication among peers.Seniority rules in daily life
When it comes to the seniority rules in daily life,we know that only people at the same age can be called friends and the other relationship is strictly limited by seniority rules.We can find this situation in all parts of their life in Korean dramas,for example , at school your senior sister and brother usually looks thrusting.At work , the senior can criticize the junior ruthlely.At home,the older one always shout at or even hit the younger , and the younger has to follow their order.Can you imagine your sister and brother hit you or shout at you in front of your parents ? I don’t have a brother or sister so i don’t know ,maybe like this.Eating etiquette
Another thing can attract us is the Korean eating etiquette.Both the use of the tableware and table manners are worth mentioning.Tableware ★Traditional Korean tableware includes spoon ,bowl,and chopsticks.Each has its own use.★Bowls for rice and for soup are separated.The former one is put on your left ,and the other on right.Holding the bowl while eating or when you want to get some food is not allowed.★In Korea , no matter how difficult you feel to scoop the bean sprout in your bowl ,you should not use your chopsticks.★Among the three usual tableware, i find the spoon used most frequently.And they are the most important tableware.The spoon’s handle is longer than common Chinese spoon.I usually think the gestures they using spoons elegant.Manners Seniority rules are also showed in table manners.For example ,when in the company ,the elder can choose the seat first.After the elders pick up their spoons, others can begin to eat.They will try to keep pace with elders.They won’t finish their meal until the elder have.If you are careful enough ,you can notice an order in eating ,they are used to taking a spoonful of soup and then a mouthful of rice.And after that they begin to eat what they want.Conclusion
Though these rules seems very complicated and troublesome, and we sometimes just want to ask them why they don’t have a relaxing meal?I think ,the Korean have get used to them just like we Chinese get used to our own etiquette.Seniority is not just in the screen in Korea ,it happens everyday and everywhere.Actually ,Korean people is now facing a dilemma that whether they keep this seniority rules in today’s democratic and equal world.The society criticized the rules a lot after the accident of Sewol where the rescuer saved the headmaster first and left more than 300 students stuck in the sinking ship.Maybe is not the main reason for the accident ,but it truly alert the society to this iue.China has this dilemma too.To reserve traditional culture or to dispose.I think,we should take the eence and discard the dregs.Adapt our opinion and culture to the rapidly developed world,otherwise our culture regreion may be caused or our cultural root will be lost.
