KBS World Radio English Service

Big congrats to our last week's Y2C winner, Verni Emelia. Please email us your mailing address to kpop@kbs.co.kr so we can send out your prize. Be sure to include in the subject line that you were the Y2C winner for November 27, 2015.
This week, I got to talking with friends about people in Korea who immediately jump to informal speech when talking to you for the first time. Now this may seem very foreign to people in countries where there really isn't formal vs. informal speech. However, in Korean, we have honorifics and special terms or language that is used to speak formally to someone, espeically if you're meeting for the first time.
This got me thinking of rude behavior. There are SO MANY! However, what are some in particular that you just can't stand? It could be cussing in public, not washing your hands after using the bathroom, littering, not saying thank you, etc. etc. The list is endless. There are some really RUDE and ill-mannered people in this world.
Share with us your answers and tune into K-Pop Connection. If you answer, you may be our next Y2C winner!
