Hello everyone, who loves Korean culture! Today, we're going to talk about 'Sul' (alcohol/drinks) culture, which is interestingly intertwined with Koreans' lives. Let's explore together what 'Sul' means to Koreans, beyond just a simple beverage, through the dialogue between Mike and Grace!

Grace: Haha, Mike! For Koreans, 'sul' isn't just an alcoholic beverage. Sometimes it's a way to relieve stress, and sometimes it's a medium to strengthen relationships with people. It's a significant tool for sharing emotions.

๐Ÿ’ƒ Grace: Korean society is very competitive, so there's a lot of stress. At times like these, people have a 'suljari' (drinking gathering) with friends or colleagues to share their difficulties and find comfort. Also, at work, 'huesik' (company dinner with drinks) can be an opportunity to get closer to colleagues.
