Ahn nyeong ha se yo is the phonetic spelling of how to say hello in Korean. It is a formal way to greet one another. In Asia it is paramount that children respect their elders, which leads to the common practice of a slight bow when greeting those who are much older and wiser. Mr. Choi and William Choe (above) demonstrate this. It recognizes their authority and intelligence. Also, it is considered extremely disrespectful to maintain eye contact with another person, especially when they are much older. When people greet their friends who are similar in age, they may just say hello and wave or shake hands.
