Korea still a Hermit Kingdom, says study - INSIDE JoongAng Daily
I personally think that most of the Tech firm had focused sometime get the wrong end of the stick when they 'think' and invest in millions trying to emulate Asia in the west.
This is a great example where, the structure, culture, social environment of another great technology success story of Korean is in fact not well understood..
It is also social (or not) of Japanese culture (plus the lack of internet penetration + reasonable business model) which led to the overwhelming success of DoCoMo i-mode.. which could also be argued why the same success did not arrive for i-mode outside of Japan.
Our information/Internet/Twitter age should promote understanding, as long as we do not 'group think', which sadly it is pretty much the case most of the time, even within the Twitter age/community..
Merry Christmas to you where ever you might be.
