Anyway, as darkina and I have found out, Greeks and Italians are almost identical so you argue with your friend for nothing. The similarities are indeed impressing, while the differences are few

Korean: They all live in the past. (We don't care about their present anyways)
Italian:
Korean: They all live in the past, too. (And we don't care about their present either.)
