    Japanese and Korean. Trains, planes, and subways are dead quiet. People don’t talk and keep to themselves, I found it’s very quiet even in coffee shops relative to western countries. It’s considered a social faux pas to converse or be loud, especially in those confined public spaces. By comparison, Europeans are considered loud, even Scandinavians by East Asian standards.
