More about Korean drinking etiquette (video + Comments)

# data[].attributes.attachment_link.readable_text
Korean drinking culture can be very complicated to some people new to Korea. But drinking with others is more than just getting drunk, it's about conveying respect! So if you're going to be drinking in Korea, be sure to watch this video with all the dos and donts of Korean drinking culture!

Some basic rules:

1. Pour and receive drinks with two hands

2. Turn to the side when drinking.

3. Pour drinks for others, don't pour drinks for yourself.

4. Try to take the first drink with everyone, together.

5. Don't worry about being perfect with all the rules. As long as you show you're making an effort, many Koreans will appreciate it 🙂

Video: YouTube, Raja That!

The worst thing about drinking alone is... drinking alone.

Now you can leave your #ForeverAlone days behind with this robotic drinking buddy aptly called Drinky. Created by South Korean inventor, Eunchan Park, this automatic drink machine will raise its glass to your every "cheers" and down the shot in one swift gulp.

For more interactivity, Drinky will even flash you a thumbs up as its cheeks flush red after every shot.

The best thing? Drinky can literally hold its liquor - which is stalled in a jar that makes up its body - but like any drinking buddy, has its limit. So don't forget to empty the jar when it's full - you can recycle the alcohol - before it starts dribbling down its chin!

To make your learning STRONG, re-read all of the pages and exercises from each class at night before you go to sleep. Look here for pictures and extra materials which will STRENGTHEN your memory and make what you learned go DEEPER. "Replay" your class like a movie in your mind and it will help make everything STAY IN THERE! :) It isn't hard work - do your review while relaxing with your favorite drink or outside. It's so simple, but very effective. Many students don't do this, though. This "brain hack" is like a secret weapon for language learning!                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                    - Matthew

Watch the video to see how Americans and Koreas use similar gestures to mean very different things, or different gestures to mean the same thing. Body language is really interesting, isn't it!

Kyungje, welcome to our Padlet. What is it? Well, this is how it works:

You have a blank page where you can do a variety of things. You can drag and drop documents, images, and PDF’s from your desktop to your wall. You can also copy and paste links to videos or websites as well as use your computer’s camera to take a picture to put up. Lastly, you have the option to just start typing on your page and create notes on it.

To post something, just double-click on the wall somewhere. Try it out! You can play around with it as much as you like...just don't erase/change the homework assignments! ;P I'm going to post stuff on here to support what we do in class together. Also, once you feel comfortable with this you will write some homework assignments on it. It'll be fun! There is an iPhone/Android app, too.

I posted the whiteboard photographs directly from my phone just now. Easy! So, if you want to comment on anything, go for it!
