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.
Valencia Business Pulse
- Culture Dynamic, relationship-based, and influenced by its port and burgeoning tech scene.
- Lunch Break 2:00 PM - 3:30 PM.
- Pro Tip Avoid calling during the 2:00-4:00 PM lunch period strictly. Best times are 11:00 AM to 1:00 PM. Valencians value personal rapport and a warm, engaged tone. Business is increasingly modern and tech-focused, but traditional relational values remain very important.
