Chongqing Business Pulse
- Culture Industrial hub with a focus on manufacturing and logistics. Hardworking and direct.
- Lunch Break 12:00 PM - 1:00 PM.
- Pro Tip Reach out between 10:00 AM and 11:30 AM for the most productive morning calls. In this industrial hub, business is often practical and results-oriented. As with other major Chinese cities, avoid the 12-1:30 PM lunch break and major national holidays.
Seoul Business Pulse
- Culture Extremely hardworking and hierarchical. "Pali-pali" (hurry-hurry) culture drives rapid growth.
- Lunch Break 12:00 PM - 1:00 PM.
- Pro Tip The ideal window is 9:30 AM to 11:30 AM. South Koreans value speed ("Pali-pali") and expect rapid responses. Avoid the 12-1 PM lunch hour strictly. Ensure you follow hierarchical protocols if senior leaders are present, and never arrive (digitally or in-person) late for a call.
