How many “personal space” do you have?
These days we live in the crowed city. So may be we cannot enough to personal space. Then, can we how many space to the others? I think and almost agreed, it is based on the country such as America or Europe or Asia. Now then let’s investigate about many country thought to admit a personal space.
In this report, I can investigate between America and Korea. First, Columbian like to protect their space. They want to respect their room and respect to another’s room. As we know, Columbian have a individualism not egoism. , If person that they don’t know seat near the them, they feel uncomfortable.
Frankly, Korean want personal space. But they have a different thing to Columbian. That is mind doesn’t respected another person. I think Korea based on communitarianism may be. So they doesn’t used to think about personal. Long time ago until 1970’s, they have to cooperate to farming. But as the times change, they are used to consider another people.
Your theory is interesting. It seems that a sense of community and cooperation may effect Koreans' sense of personal space. I'm not exactly sure what to think myself, but you could be right.
