PRACTICE
Work in pairs. Discuss the differences between Vietnamese culture and
1 some other cultures you know about. Use the ideas in getting Started
and Reading, and the table and examples below to help you.

Example:
A:

South Koreans seem to eat a lot of spicy food, such as kimchi
and tteokbokki, while our traditional dishes, like bun cha and
pho, are not very spicy in general.

B:

I agree. How about music? I think in both countries, young
people like to listen to pop music, but K-pop focuses mainly
on dance groups while our pop music is usually produced by
solo artists.
