Can confirm SK is waaaaay worse than Japan, they've basically gave up on all traditionalism period while Japan still keeps it for the cultural reasons. Like going to a Shinto or Buddhist temple to pray for various things from a good pregnancy to getting a job or even proper etiquette from centuries ago like bowing and wearing traditional clothing like Yukata or using the same exact tools for fixing damage in historical building that were used in its construction.......Though western influence has seeped in and jogger music especially has had a negative effect through gangsta (funniest shit in the world is a Japanese teen thinking they're hard and hood) and thot culture.
