In response to the above "The good, the bad and the ugly"- an easy life in Korea??? You've got to be kidding. I lived there for one year in the mid 90's and it was anything but easy. It was the hardest year of my life. I came to love and appreciate Korea but I never "denounced" the West, and I'm sorry, but corporate capitalism?? One thing I made perfectly clear to my friends back home was that the "degradation" and greed of the West was far more rampant in Korea than in the West itself. Throw in the choking pollution and destruction of natural environment and um, sorry, but it's not all Buddhist temples and meditating. Buddy, you have to get out and take on a different perspective for a bit. You're sounding a little narrow-minded there.
