Your second paragraph is, quite unintentionally, a great anecdote for why culturalism is a problem. You've somehow managed to blame your boss's quite idiosyncratic issues on his Korean-ness and connect it to another, completely unrelated incident where Korean-ness was being blamed for failure. There are legitimate and complex ways in which culture can influence individual behavior, but in practice, most such arguments come down to just laziness, personal biases or in some extreme cases, a socially more acceptable way to express racial prejudice.
