Probably because you're not a woman


I second that.

In short...drunk guys typically don't pick fights with women, as opposed to a guy who may step on his shoe while squeezing through a narrow corridor on the way to the bathroom and want to fight about it~


No, but in Korea a drunk guy will give a woman a smack in the mouth, grab you and stick his tongue in your mouth, try to grab your breasts, shout obscenities at you, pull you by your hair out of the bar, etc etc etc. all as a complete stranger who you've never met, never even looked at. Sometimes, not even drunk.

They should put real warning labels on the soju. Things like vomit stained t-shirts. Lost car keys. Pregnancy. A day-after toilet bowl shot. That person you wake up, look at them lying next to you, and hate yourself for. Stuff like that.

"Let's improve wrong drinking culture!"


Trillions and trillions and trillions of won thrown away on English language education here and yet a major domestic beverage company can't be bothered to compose a sentence/phrase of comprehensible English!

I read in another artcile that the government was "considering banning the sale of alcohol in hospitals". Shocked

I had no idea you could buy beer in a hospital here.


There are patients in hospital clothes with IVs in their arms outside hospitals drinking and smoking.
