Calling Titles - Opba &c : In Korean Community

The Naming Problem in Korean Community - Going Creepy to Wrong Direction.
It does without saying that it is wrong to call somebody without blood-relationship Opba, Nunim, Haraboji, Halmoni. Ajossi, Ajumoni/Ajumma. These are family-oriented callings, but no social base. That smells cronyism which always exists in unfair nepotic society, not democratic but favoritism-prevalent ones. People in the class-conscious society can be satisfied only after telling the other party's age to rank senior or junior. Haraboji is often called by ill-mannered people: Should be replaced by Sonsaengnim/...Ssi/Orusin/Mr... for the proper calling, mannered social touch. SonsaengNim/ ...Ssi/Buin/Yosa/Mananim/Mrs ... is more favorable calling title than Halmoni which often offends her who is called. ....-jc
