OMO.... that's way too muc isn't it?

South Korea has one the largest amounts of plane crashes a year (although recently these numbers have gone down). After investigation, researchers concluded the problem was with the Korean view of respecting your elders. One good example (and this is a true story) is the time a plane crashed into a mountain. It was on a island and it was very foggy that day. The pilot thought that he was on track toward the runway, but in reality he was heading straight towards a mountain. The co-pilot noticed this but didn't say anything. Why? Because correcting the pilot (aka his elder) would be disrespectful and not socially acceptable. So in the end they crashed into a mountain and died.
