I'm Korean, but I often think that the so-called virtues of Koreans are actually just vulgarity. Even when it comes to social stratification, they don't do it with any sophistication. it's just crude and vulgar. They could do it with more class, but they don't. I'm not sure how other countries handle it.

Company name cards and titles act like a class system, and as a freelancer, it seems like dating and marriage will be out of reach for me for life. Maybe I'll just get a cat

It'll settle down probably. Just the hallmarks of a newly wealthy society. (within a generation)

Give in 2-3 generations the kids will be doing art history stuff.

For one, I am 100% behind a cat-based caste.-

Oh, she'll be overjoyed to learn later that you don't own any SK Hynix stock. And then there's the fact that you shop in secondhand stores.

(If she's still around after learning this, you may have a keeper.)
