Is Japanese and Korean culture similar? I didn't know that. Given their proximity and war history, it makes sense that their cultures would have similarities, but I assumed their cultures would be pretty different. I've only been to Korea once, and not for long enough to get a feel for the culture of the country. At surface level, though, it felt pretty different from Japan to me.

One example of similarities would be bow when greeting or leaving each other.
I didn't know that they greet and part each other with a bow in Korea. Interesting.
Both of us eat with chopsticks too.
Thanks for the info!
