What should I give? Will postcards work? What else? I read this in a CultureSmart book that said it is customary to give a new aquaintance something that is significant about your country (US). I don't want to spend too much money though. Who specifically do you give a gift too? I don't want to be giving gifts to everybody because that is just weak. |

It's not really necessary.
Sometimes Koreans in the office will hand out souvenirs from their vacation/honeymoon, whatever. It's usually a key chain or pen. |
