K-Kids are spoiled to hell. They sit at the top of a pyramid scheme, an obligatory money- doleing out racket that every Korean has to contribute to. My poor Korean co-workers told me about the money they have to save to present to all their multitude of nieces and nephews.. of course they get given money too, but the older you are, the more you lose than accumulate...

But, as one previous poster pointed out, Koreans don't really have Christmas like we do in the west. Hell, I knew kids in high school who got trips to Europe as a Christmas present. And even those from less prosperous backgrounds usually managed to rake in at least a few hundred dollars worth of presents. |
