South Korea has a high suicide rate compared to other nations because of a high emphasis on education. The standardize test given to enter a top Korean univerisity is given only once a year and the day it is given, the entire nation shuts down to prevent noise pollution. It is literaly a DO OR DIE exam.
The Korean culture also does not promote individuality or the "look at me" like Americans do. Too often are children expected to unhesitently obey their parents as well has greet elders with a perfect bow. This high disciplined lifestyle often leads many young teenagers into social problems and sometimes depression when one is not understood.
