Don't panic if there's no cutlery
Sat down but can't see any spoons or chopsticks?
Don't panic and feel the side of the table.
Korean restaurant tables have a **'Secret Drawer'** attached.
Open it, and you'll find cutlery, napkins, and sometimes a bottle opener.
If you find it first and set the table for your friends,
you are already a Korean culture master!
Don't shout 'Excuse me!'
You don't need to shout "Excuse me!" in Korean restaurants.
Look for a small **'Call Button'** on the corner of the table.
Press it ('Ding-dong~'), and a staff member will answer and come to you.
Use it for water, refills, or ordering.
No button? Then you can raise your hand and say "Jeogiyo~" (Excuse me).
Don't just eat meat, make a 'Ssam'
Eating only meat at K-BBQ is for amateurs.
Place meat, garlic, and Ssamjang on a lettuce or sesame leaf to make a **'Ssam' (Wrap).**
Stuffing your mouth full is the proper way to enjoy it.
It's healthy with veggies and balances the flavor perfectly.
Feeding a wrap to a friend or partner is also
a Korean way of showing affection!
Protect your clothes from red splashes
Korean food has many red soups like Kimchi stew.
Wearing white? You might worry about stains.
Just ask the staff, **"Ap-chi-ma juseyo" (Apron, please).**
Most restaurants provide disposable or cloth aprons.
Put it on and slurp your noodles freely.
Food tastes better when you don't worry about your clothes!
