I'm an American living in South Korea and have been here since November 2019; three years now. I came at the very start of COVID in China (it didn't reach North America until March 2020).

When COVID very first began, the government made everyone wear masks and wash hands/sanitize a lot more, and gyms and restaurants had limited seating and most had to take their food to go. But there was NEVER any lockdowns. (Unless you count the nine days in April/May 2020 where we couldn't go to work, but the government paid everyone for the loss of productivity and covered all our checks, anyway.) But basically, no lockdowns. No curfews. Almost nothing.

I saw the insanity happening in The US, Canada, and especially Australia with COVID lockdowns, though. Government corruption at its worse and trying to seize power, while a large fraction of the idiot population were endorsing all of this theft of liberty and virtue signaling about "protecting and saving lives" while being Useful Idiots for Pfizer, Moderna, and Anthony Fauci. Hindsight is 20-20 though (not that any of us are forgiving you authoritarian, McCarthyist, Useful Idiot f*ckers for kissing Pfizer's asses for the useless and ineffective Fauci Ouchie).

Anyway, South Korea among other countries, never had lockdowns. However, we still have to wear masks to this day. There's no end in sight. At the very least, they're not required outdoors anymore, but for any serious job, including mine as I work with kids, it's still serious mask BS business and standard COVID safety procedures.

Which system would you have preferred to live through during COVID?
The American/Western way things played out? Or the Korean/Asian way things played out?
