Contrasts of Work and Life: North Korea vs. South Korea

This chapter explores the implications of a petition by Disney employees against a four-day workweek and discusses broader themes of work-life balance in corporate culture. It contrasts life in North Korea, marked by oppression and lack of individual expression, with the freedoms and economic successes of South Korea. The conversation emphasizes the historical, cultural, and ideological differences between the two Koreas and reflects on the unique experiences of those who have escaped from the North.
