Yesterday after lunch, we were discussing about doing a short demonstrations about handshake during an interview. 5 of us in a group. 1 is from Korea, another one from China and the rest of us are locals.

Korean girl: *with a questioning look* "Why do we need to shake hands during an interview?"

Ahhh... the cultural differences. As a form of politeness, Japanese and Korean will usually bow when they meet someone new. However, in the western cultural, they do a handshake or a hug if it's informal.

I feel so blur with so many assignments and presentations to do... >,<
