Korea might be pro-America on almost all matters, except maybe 3 things: Drugs, Guns, and TIPPING. American tipping culture has been getting out of control in the United States, where the standard has become 20-25%, according to several news sources and Americans. Ironically, the American tipping culture has been slowly infiltrating the Korean society. And we're not talking about small store owners putting up tip jars or recommending tips to their servers. The biggest tech conglomerate of South Korea, Kakao Corp. has introduced the tipping system to it's taxi services, similar to Uber. This has faced immediate backlash and rage from the Korean public. In today's podcast episode of Korean Pizza Club, we introduce the history of tipping in Korea, Korean viewpoints on tipping, and the panels Kelsey the Korean, Anna Lee, and Soobeanie share their thoughts about tipping culture and whether it will be adopted by the Korean society eventually. What are your thoughts about American tipping culture, and what is the situation related to tipping in your country?

Tipping should be optional. Have a mandatory minimum wage that make one's suited to live.
As a european, the us tipping culture stress me OUT. Dont import that bs to korea
I love how American business owners are getting away with not paying their workers a living wage and now have passed the pressure to consumers.
The US is ridiculous.
Tipping history in America shows that it started because owners didn't pay their employees a decent living wage in the first place even if by law they should be paying a minimum wage. Even Americans shouldn't tolerate tipping, but most don't even realize what it stems from which is business exploitation of the employees and America is so bad at exploitation. If businesses paid their employees a decent living wage, tipping would be completely unnecessary, no matter the industry.
I'm an American living in Korea and got my first "would you like to tip your driver?" message from KakaoT last week. I was shocked. Tipping culture is one of the things I was so glad to leave behind 😭 I really hope it doesn't become widespread 😭
I live in America and I've worked as a server before (in college) and now I regularly tip servers because I know how little they get paid. I also wish they would just pay them a living wage and get rid of tipping. It's soooo expensive here already 😩
Im in South Africa, and even though we do tip here, it's NOT by force.
I’m not gonna lie, I came to the comments to see the Americans opinions on this. I’m Brazilian, have been going to the US since I was a child. Tips always bothered me, last year when I went to Vegas to see BTS, I was shocked with the counter services asking for tips, also the starting point in the tablets being so high, sometimes people ask for tips BEFORE servicing you. What?? And what happens if you don’t tip? Are they going to spit in my coffee? Craziness all around. When my vacation time came in October I decided to go to Italy, this year will be Japan. I’m not going back to US anytime soon (and Canada got infected with the tipping virus too).
In the UK where you have those self-service machines in supermarkets/stores, those machines prompt you to tip when you buy groceries. who tf am I tipping? its a self service machine my dude I never even saw another human.
I'm American and when I used to waitress/bartend, I was paid below minimum wage. The employers logic is if the service is good and you hustle that the tips will balance out your pay. However some bartending places make you share tips so then you have to work extra hard because now you're compensating for those that don't work as hard and still get an equal cut. It's stupid, and the whole tipping culture is getting outta control here. They really just need to pay on base line wage across the board.
Tipping should not be mandatory/ forced, manipulated or gaslighted in any way. Fear of being judged is ego so let go of ego and societal pressure and only tip, when you wish to.
Tipping in the US was at 15% for a very long time. The only reason it went up to 20% was because the restaurant business association lobbied to increase the tipping rate to 20% so they wouldn’t have to pay their staff as much.
Greetings from Munich, Germany! Glad you covered this topic because tipping stresses me out. In Germany, it's not mandatory to tip. If people tip, it's about 3 to max. 6%. But in the States, it's become out of hand. Just as David said, this also happened to me in the States. Once I didn't tip because the waiter was rude. And he actually ran after me and asked, "Did I do something wrong?" For me tipping SHOULD BE something above and extra. It's to motive good service. If it's become mandatory, tip should just be incorporated in the price, right?
American, and am soooo done with tipping. Overkill to the max. Can no longer afford services or eating out because of tipping being expected 😡🤬
I am so glad about this subject. Tipping cultural sucks. I am American and tipping cultural became insane during the pandemic because the delivery drivers had to work outside. Then when places started started to open up companies started ask the public to pay extra for service workers. Not only that but theses companies pool the tips and split among the servers. Even if a server sucks.
I would like to speak on behalf of Middle East countries, and Arab Countries especially. TIPPING is optional. You are never pressured to give tips. You can eat at any restaurant, whether cheap or an expensive one and give no tips. It’s totally fine. But most restaurants do have like small tipping cups right there in the cashier, and it’s up to you if you want to put some tip or not. And the menu price is exactly the final price.
I’m American and I don’t agree with tipping. I think it should be optional. Now they include it in the total of your meal and they still expect you to tip extra. The problem also is that America is greedy. Everything has to be extravagant from food to homes to groceries. It’s insanely expensive here in America.
I totally agree with you David! I live in America (Hawaii) and I think tipping culture is getting out of hand! The cost of living in paradise is already super high and to feel pressured into tipping someone just because it’s suggested is ridiculous!
