These days, it seems like young Koreans try to follow and absord the western beliefs and values, especially American culture. The majority of young people think that traditional practices are old and boring, such anachronism should be thrown away. Therefore, they instead praises individualism, equality, and Materialism of the western. However, the beliefs and values in east asia including Korea, China, Japan, are sustained for a long time. It’s not a just tradition, it’s what shaped our society today. Not like the western values, so called orientalism forcus on community. This value is called as “share the life.” It might sounds dependable, but what it truely means that people should care and grade other persons interests as theirs. Therefore, that society will be healthier. It more focus on harmony than individual happiness. It’s impossible to compare which is good or bad, but just throwing out our traditional beliefs and values is irrational and foolish.
