Compare/Contrast Cultural issues between Korea and Australia

Chandran, I don't know your focus on the Australia and S/Korea relationships you may be researching on: Is it on economy or political negotiation? Meanwhile, negotiating between two different nations that have cultural and political differences, one has to consider some factors.
