South Korea Business Dress
Guidelines for business dress
Conservative dress prevails in South Korean business culture.
Subdued, conservative colours are considered the most appropriate choices for the initial meetings. You can slowly introduce bright colours after you build credibility and relationships.
In business settings, standard attire for men includes a dark suit, white shirt, and conservative tie.
Women typically wear very conservative skirt and blouse combinations or business dresses. Since many people sit on the floor in homes and restaurants, tight skirts are best avoided.
Sleeveless tops and miniskirts are considered unprofessional in most business settings. As a guest, dress conservatively even for very informal occasions, although some Koreans have started wearing sleeveless shirts and shorts for their outings.

Korean food!
I love korean food. they are delicious and very tasty. i used to eat korean food everyday while i was in korea but not anymore. whenever i miss korea food, i go to the Korean resturant and ordered the dish that i like. i am not saying that those korean resturants are bad in here in Fort Wayne, but the tast is very different for me. i am sure you guys know what i mean. Anyway my point is among those korean dishes, Bulgogi is my favorite dish. thinly sliced or shredded beef marinated in soy sauce, sesame oil, garlic, sugar, green onions and black pepper, cooked on a grill (sometimes at the table). Bulgogi literally means "fire meat". Variations include pork (Dweji bulgogi), chicken (Dak bulgogi), or squid (Ojingeo bulgogi).
