In keeping with Korean patriarchal culture, my grandparents encouraged me to choose a job where I can still support my family. Growing up, my Korean relatives reminded me that a girl like me should work under a man because that is what is expected. Meanwhile, they would tell my brother to get a top job in a business. This is because, in Korean culture, men are seen as assertive and dominant, whereas women are supposed to be nurturing and emotional\u2013characteristics not associated with leadership.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image aligncenter size-full is-resized\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/soc.hamiltonlits.org\/sharingsociology\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/25204951.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-3722\" width=\"253\" height=\"348\" srcset=\"https:\/\/soc.hamiltonlits.org\/sharingsociology\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/25204951.jpg 350w, https:\/\/soc.hamiltonlits.org\/sharingsociology\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/25204951-218x300.jpg 218w, https:\/\/soc.hamiltonlits.org\/sharingsociology\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/25204951-230x317.jpg 230w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 253px) 100vw, 253px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Men can have it all, while women face oppression in the workplace<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The idea that women should work under men stems from Korea\u2019s patriarchal history.

Men are seen as the breadwinners, while women are responsible for housework. However, these ideal gender norms set unrealistic standards for working women since they demand that they work long hours while still taking care of their children <a href=\"https:\/\/www.proquest.com\/scholarly-journals\/how-do-south-korean-female-executives-definitions\/docview\/1940282265\/se-2\">(Cho et al. 2017)<\/a>. When women fail to meet these expectations, the work environment becomes hostile: they are treated as less important than men and not taken seriously. A discriminatory gender wage gap persists that invalidates women\u2019s work <a href=\"https:\/\/www.proquest.com\/scholarly-journals\/how-do-south-korean-female-executives-definitions\/docview\/1940282265\/se-2\">(Cho et al. 2017)<\/a>.
