regarding the train situation in Germany. at the moment there are less problems with the regional trains/metros but more with the national-international ones. Germany is the heart of Europe, the most populated country in the EU within the most populated region of Europe (Blue Banana - btw. basically the structures from the Holy Roman Empire with today Germany as base of that) with masses of direct and indirect borders to neighbors. This means: its the major transit hub of Europe with most traffic (trains/tracks, cars/roads, internet/hubs, packages, Europe also has half of the whole tourism of the planet etc.) and since the 21. century the general traffic of all kind exploded further - passing to Germany or through. This means you have now a situation in Germany (and some neighboring countries like Belgium, Netherlands) in which there is more and more pressure on the systems (something South Korea with its shrinking population and basically not changed situation to the neighbors dont have). On one hand they are partly standardized, on the other hand there are still incompatibilities. Some delays/cancelling in Germany can be for instance caused by the traffic situation of another country or to manage hotspots on another point in the grid better. Its not necessarily that this or that actual train is really late. There is a lot of reconstruction at the moment in Germany and Europe to not just re-new some systems (keep in mind that Germany build a huge train network much earlier than South Korea) but also to re-route/homogenize the European track grid. Another aspect is that nowadays huge projects take often more time due to much more laws/restrictions (of all kind, from protecting nature to citizen rights (sometimes both is a bit ideologic)) and also more complex because you have a mixture of national and EU-rules overlapping - and so on which makes everything more expensive and usually delayed. And as long there is now a huge construction going on especially on the 'hot routes'/bottle necks - its unavoidable that there are no delays and stuff: Like often if one has a bigger system change, its at first is getting worse before it gets better. Apart from that: thats also the reason why Germany is even in relation to some other wealthy European countries relatively affordable (in fact it has one of the best income/expense ratios on the planet which is why also neighbors often buy cars, electronics, grocery in Germany especially if living at the border. The other reason is that Germany has a kind of DIY culture and a quite competitive company infrastructure (many 'discounter' companies which core business model was and is a highly optimized logistics for core products (but with good quality!) are German companies like ALDI/LIDL - which also expand with such concepts in the world very fast. Behind that is also a kind of culture and competition which for instance South Korea, the US/Canada, Japan etc. has less. Japan for instance has the mentality that a car has better to be new (and even feel bad if not) - while in Germany the focus is much more pragmatic on 'irrelevant if new or second hand', that was makes most sense should be taken. And again, because Germany is basically the most dominant country and biggest economy in Europe (third in the world) AND right in the center of Europe you have also the influence of all kind of cultures/traffic/migration going through which creates also another mentality.
you have such 'high tech' toilets (and everything else) also in Germany. many have it, many (still) not. the real difference is rather that you have in Germany a more complex and less homogenous situation as in Japan, South-Korea and so on - much more diversity of all kind. Make-up is a good example. Many do, many not, some make extra weird one and so on. Pillars, beds, and also toilets and so on are another example. You have now EVERYTHING, not anymore or much less 'all have this or that' situation. Same is true for relationships and dating. Germany has from a quite traditional one to polyamory, from super fast dating to taking your time - much more individual and/or based on the much more diverse bubbles one lives in. And thats true for all kind of behaviors and stuff. Its btw. in general a more western thing but especially in Central Europe (and to some degree in likeminded cultures like the US/Canada) its more diverse ...
In America, you are a salary person then you only have to clock in 8 hours a day and insanely rare you have to clock in more than that or else the company will get into trouble with the laws. If you are paid hourly then you get overtime if you clock in more than 8nhours. I think you are paid 1.5 the regular rate if you clock in more than 8 hours
Not public transport and compared to Korea: fruits, vegetable, beer, products from famous brands (Nutella, Milka etc.), public bathrooms. But its true, that Germany is in general more expensive than Korea, but salaries are higher here too, better social system & paid vacation if a woman gets pregnant.
