This is a very good piece! Very interesting to hear about your culture :) From the way you wrote this, it sounds very casual so I have corrected with words and phrases that I would use if I talked with a friend. However, because this piece seems to not only describe differences but ALSO similiarities between the western and eastern culture there are a lot more descriptive words that can be used as a means to compare and contrast (as you would write more formally e.g. in an essay). A good example is the last two paragraphs (which sounds like a summation or conclusion), you can easily form a conclusion, that is directly explaining how the celebration of Christmas is different and similiar by adding words such as: on the other hand, which in contrast to, in comparison, similiarly to western culture....etc

E.g. Western culture is reflected in two distinct ways that Christmas is commonly celebrated in Korea. Depending on the religous status, Christians perform traditional rituals such as attendance to church services and caroling whereas non-Christians tend to celebrate the joy of Christmas in a more intimate manner, namely their lovers.

Anyway hope this helps and have a lovely Christmas! Aja aja fighting! hahha
