Body Language

Body language are important language. Although we have different various language in the world. Even if we have different language, we have similar body language to communicate. However, some body languages have totally different meaning. Actually, I don't have experience to express something in body language. I heard that some people use their head for responding to question differently. Usually when we think right, we nod our head and it is wrong, we shake our head. However, some people reply in opposite side. In addition, when we want to call somebody in hand, we shake hand as showing the back of the hand in Korea. On the other hand, American use their hand to call in using their palm. In Korea, we consider that if we use our palm to call somebody, it is rude to the person. When we use body language to different people, we should consider other's culture carefully.
