In South Korea, people don’t leave tips, and that’s completely normal.

💸 The reason is simple – staff and restaurants treat the menu price as final, with no extra service charges.

🙅‍♂️ Tips can even be seen as rude or awkward, because Korean culture values professionalism and hospitality as a standard, not something extra you have to pay for.

🍽️ So don’t worry about tipping – good manners and politeness are enough, and the staff will be happy.
