Melbourne Business Pulse

  • Culture Professional but relaxed. Known for a strong coffee culture and sports-related networking.
  • Lunch Break 12:30 PM - 1:30 PM.
  • Pro Tip The best time for calls is 10:00 AM to 12:00 PM and 2:00 PM to 4:00 PM. Australians are generally informal but professional; starting with "How's it going?" is standard. Melbourne is the coffee capital; if you're on a video call, don't be surprised if your contact is in a café.

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.
