Korean culture is built on Confucian principles, where hierarchy and respect for elders are key. This is reflected in rules of address, nonverbal communication, and everyday manners.
In Korea, it's common to use specific forms of address that reflect status, age, and closeness. Simply addressing elders or superiors by their first names is considered rude.
Some forms of address:
~씨 (~ssi) is a neutral form of address for people your own age or younger than you (e.g. Kim Minsoo-ssi).
~님 (~nim) is a respectful address to elders or superiors (Pak-nim).
선생님 (songsaengnim) - teacher, doctor, lawyer.
사장님 (sajangnim) is a company manager.
~언니 (onni) is a form of address used by younger women to address older women.
~누나 (nuna) is a form of address used by younger men to address older women.
~오빠/형 (~oppa/hyeon) is a form of address used by younger women to address older men and vice versa.
선배 (sunbae) is a respectful form of address for an older colleague at work or school.

Addressing an elder by name without a suffix is ​​a serious violation.
The suffix -아/-야 applied to an elder is disrespectful.
The direct form of address "you" (너) is especially impolite when addressing elders.
