What is the beautiful side of Korean culture???

Korean has etiquette about drinking culture.

We have a difficult culture because foreigners say "cheers" while drinking alcohol, but Korean people said "건배(gunbei)" or "원 샷(one shot)".

And when drinking together , Korea people have several rules.

For example when you drink with a person who is older than you, you should drink with your head facing toward the opposite the person.

Because it is considered rude to directly face the person who you are drinking with.

Also, if you are drinking alcohol with someone older than you, you should hold under a wrist with another hand when a person who is older than you pour in your drinking cup.

Do the same thing when you pour for them.

Becaese using both hands means that you are showing respect them.
