Cultural Difference between Korea and the USA

In my subject opinion and also object opinion, Korea is one of the most Polite and Humble country.
There is two reasons that i said like this.

First, Korea has a lot of Polite expressions.
I'll show you For example about 'Hello'. We have 3 different ways to say 'Hello'

An-yŏng-ha-shm-ni-ka : For Older Person (Super Polite)
An-yŏng-ha-se-yo : For Older Person.
An-yŏng : For Younger Person.

Second, Usually Korean doesn't brag their ability.
Even though in a Interview they try to showing their strengthens indirectly.

  1. is it possible to say you are the most polite and then say that you are humble? surely if you were humble you wouldn't claim to be so polite....
    only joking.
