Courtesy, righteousness, honesty and shame are the code of conduct advocated by both ancient and modern China and foreign countries. However, some netizens have recently found on Quora that the behavior of a country's citizens is often bizarre, causing widespread controversy, and the incident can be traced back to Thailand some time ago. On April 13, a local theft case in Thailand was exposed, and four men pretended to be Chinese in order to evade legal responsibility.

After the police verified the case, they found that the four people were actually South Koreans. As soon as this matter was revealed, it quickly aroused strong dissatisfaction and resonance among Pakistani netizens. They pointed out that the behavior of South Koreans posing as Chinese was heard in Pakistan for the purpose of "eating and drinking without paying."
Some Pakistani shopkeepers have also come out to testify that they have repeatedly encountered South Koreans calling themselves "Chinese" in broken Chinese in the past to deceive them into preferential treatments. In the face of these accusations, a South Korean netizen posted a reply on Quora in order to maintain the national image, saying, "South Korea has thousands of years of cultural cultivation, and it is impossible to have this kind of behavior", but this remark was immediately questioned by Pakistani netizens.
Pakistani netizens pointed out that South Korea, as an ancient branch of China, has a real historical time of only more than 100 years, where did it come from "thousands of years"? Moreover, in Pakistan, everyone has seen the real situation of Koreans using Chinese as a "guise" to deceive food and drink. The words of this Pakistani netizen debunked a fact to the world.
Some of the behaviors of South Koreans overseas are seriously inconsistent with the so-called "courtesy, righteousness, and shame". His accusations have also made more Pakistani netizens stand up in support of him, revealing more real-life examples of South Koreans' "misconduct" in Pakistan. As a country that prides itself on "etiquette first," its citizens often act fraudulently around the world, which really hurts South Korea's international image.
This time on Quora, Korean netizens refused to admit their mistakes as always, which also shows the fundamental nature of the problem. They seem to be unable to face up to and correct their mistakes, and they still try to speak quickly and ignore the facts. Such a way of thinking is really irresponsible. In contrast, the attitude of Pakistani netizens to criticize is very reasonable and rational.
He analyzed the essence of the problem and pointed out that there was a big gap between the "good culture" that was ostensibly propagated in Korean history and the actual behavior. He also put forward constructive suggestions, hoping that South Korea will face up to this issue and guide the people to establish correct values and aspirations. Behavior is the true measure of a country and an individual.
No matter how much South Korea prides itself on itself, if its citizens behave abroad that often run counter to its self-proclaimed "high morals," then its self-boasting will not escape criticism. And the testimony of Pakistani netizens also marks a reasonable outlet for the international community's dissatisfaction with South Korea. Today, the three Northeast Asian countries, South Korea, Japan, and China are engaged in increasingly frequent diplomatic and people-to-people exchanges.
If South Korea fails to face up to its own problems and restrain the bad behavior of some of its citizens, it will be difficult for South Korea to fully establish a good international image. This may bring some unhappiness to South Korea, but it also allows more people to see the essence of the problem. Only by facing accusations, facing up to the facts, and making comprehensive adjustments in behavior can South Korea truly grow into a civilized country with international competitiveness.
