One of the first things U wanna try when U come to other culture is traditional alcohol. In Korea it's soju (소주). Well it has 20% and tastes like vodka mixed with water :D
And what is most important it's cheap! 1 bottle of soju is usually cheaper than one beer (~2000W, if I remember correctly). The first time I tried it, I didn't like the taste much, so after that we started mixing it with juice and named it "sojuice" :D.Then we were able to drink alcohol inside dorms without being noticed. Well Koreans have a lot of ways of drinking soju, one of the most popular cocktail (if U can call it a cocktail) is soju mixed with beer - somaek (soju+maekju(beer)). Here is one of the ways to mix it :)
The main reason why Koreans drink a lot is because they are making friends while drinking and getting to know each other better. They play a lot of drinking games - it's just a part of their culture :) Besides there are some rules of drinking and I found a video which explains it all ^^
Well I guess that's all for now. It's difficult to explain all about their drinking culture and the way they party, U just have to go there and see it with your own eyes (it's better to see once than 100 times to hear) ;) And here is just one fun Korean soju commercial, which shows a lot of truth about Korean lifestyle :D (and damn that song is catchy) :D
