I find this in the people I know there as well... patience, very connected to themselves and others.

I have a friend who's son is an aspiring concert violinist. A very good one at that. Whenever 'he' practices or has a performance or is at a competition, she always refers to it as 'we' are practicing, or we did well, or we didn;'t make it this time.

I asked her about this and she said it is the Korean way.
