the contemporary culture of south korea developed from the traditional culture of korea which was prevalent in the early korean nomadic tribes. by maintaining thousands of years of ancient korean culture, with influence from ancient chinese culture, south korea split on its own path of cultural development away from north korean culture since the division of korea in 1948. the industrialization, urbanization and westernization of south korea, especially seoul, have brought many changes to the way korean people live. changing economics and lifestyles have led to a concentration of population in major cities (and depopulation of the rural countryside), with multi-generational households separating into nuclear family living arrangements. today, many korean cultural elements, especially popular culture, have spread across the globe and became one of the most prominent cultural forces in the world.
