While public displays of affection (PDA) may not be as common or accepted in South Korea compared to western cultures, there are still instances where Korean couples show their love for each other in public. Kissing is seen more often in parks or secluded areas, and a quick peck on the cheek or forehead is more acceptable than kissing on the lips or hugging for an extended period of time. The rise of westernization has brought about changes in Korean culture, including the acceptance of PDA, but it is important to note that Korean culture still values modesty and respect towards others.
