The meanings are same. I'm not sure I can explain it properly or not but it looks like same as 'I eat a lunch' and 'I have a lunch'. We say saranghaeyo for elder people like parents, teacher and grandpa. I hope others can help you more.

@airamaime I think you can easily find these cultures and vibes in Asian countries such as China, Korea and Japan. I guess we are learning these kinds of attitude from various sources. (from parents, school and even some media) - it's my personal opinion

@prima777 it’s something I always see in kdramas. in Brazil, we have differents ways to express this also! but less intense as I see that happens there, at least that’s what I heard too. I guess Brazil isn’t a good “comparation”! hahah
here we use most formal language in job. Some families still has traditional ways, like only call the parents by “senhor” to the father and “senhora” to the mother (this is a custom that demonstrates respect). It seems a lot demonstration of social hierarchy.
