- Culture Corporate, professional, and a major hub for advertising, telecommunications, and fashion.
- Lunch Break 12:30 PM - 1:30 PM.
- Pro Tip Reach out between 9:30 AM and 11:30 AM. Dusseldorf is an international corporate center; maintain a professional and direct tone. Punctuality is highly valued. It is a major hub for trade fairs, so check local event schedules as they can influence availability.
Seoul Business Pulse

- 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.
