[MANNAM] Knowing the cultural difference



[MANNAM] Knowing the cultural difference

Have you ever wondered what ‘rice’ means) to Asians? Or 'bread' to westerners?
Both rice and bread are staple diets.
Then what would ‘bread‘ mean to westerners?
It seems like rice means something more than a staple food for Asian.
Then what is different and how is it different?
While I was googling, I found a very good article which explains how bread means to Asians and Westerners.
It gives a good explanation based on the author’s own experience of living in Korea as a foreigner.
I found this article is very interesting, so if you want to read it, below is the direct address to that article.
