> Koreans tend to walk (exercise) more. Walk (partway) during commute, walk to lunch, walk to do errands, etc. In the US people just sit in their cars.

People are always going on about walking, but I have a very hard time believing that the lack of low-intensity walking is a major contributing factor for the 250-pound bodies that are so common in the US (especially south and midwest). When you're overwhelming your body with fried food every day and coke at every meal, you ain't gonna keep up with those calories by getting in more steps.
