Working long hours and 2 hours driving back and forth appear to be the norm in S. Korea, according to an article on Forbes.com.
According to a 2008 ranking by the Organization for Economic Co-operation and Development, South Koreans work the longest hours per year, on average, 2357. That may not seem so bad, until you consider David Lee works 12-14 hour days, 6 days a week and gets only 3 days vacation per year.
The U.S. ranked 9th with 1797 average hours per year. If you are seeking the least hardest working country try Denmark at 1391. Preceded by Norway and Germany.
How hard do you work? Do you put in more hours than the average? Are you closer to S. Korea or Denmark? Now that you know this are you considering moving to Denmark?
