Banchan Mentality is a reason why Google isn’t doing well in Korea
Forget complex algorithms, many Koreans will tell you the reason why they won’t use Google: it simply doesn’t understand them. Koreans are generous by nature: if you’ve ever had a Korean meal, you know that people put everything on the table, and that means lots of ‘Banchan’. ‘Banchan’ refers to the (numerous) side dishes that come with a meal in Korea.
And that extends well beyond the world of food: understanding Korean’s Banchan mentality is a full component of a firm’s marketing strategy in Korea. It is one reason why customer service is so high, with companies freely handing out samples just to draw customers into the store. Similarly, people like to have everything at a glance: Google, with its a simple layout, never appealed to Korea. By contrast, the most popular search engines, Naver or Daum, feature everything from top news, the weather, shopping products or the newest movie releases on the homepage.
