Korean customs: If you visit a Korean friend's house, you should understand Korean customs, such as: when pouring wine, holding a bottle in one hand and holding an arm in the other; For the host's respect for food, accept it once or twice for the first time and accept it for the third time; It is impolite to refuse to drink someone else's toast. If you can't drink it, there will be a little wine left in the cup. Koreans forgive drunken people; Can't eat the dishes on the plate very clean, otherwise it is disrespectful to the host; You can't smoke or wear sunglasses when your elders are present. Use both hands when accepting items, and don't open gifts in person. Koreans prefer odd numbers to even numbers. Gift money should be in a white gift bag, not a red one, and so on. As the saying goes, "it's not surprising to be polite to many people." Learn more about the characteristics of Koreans: coming to this city during the day will not give you any "amazing" feeling. There is no city skyline with high-rise buildings, and there are not many wide avenues. Most buildings are old-fashioned in appearance and monotonous in color. Commercial streets are narrow and crowded, not as grand as Beijing and not as modern as Shanghai. It is hard to believe that this is Seoul, which has created two economic miracles and constantly exported "fashion" to Asia. But at night, as if by magic, the city suddenly released its brilliance. There is no need for the so-called "night scene project". Only by relying on real neon lights, residential lights, street lights and car lights will Seoul become bright and full of vitality. Go deep into every corner of this city that never sleeps, and you will find that the pragmatic management principle is its highest belief. Climate in Korea: As far as precipitation is concerned, the weather in Korea belongs to continental climate and monsoon climate. The climate in Korea is characterized by four distinct seasons. Spring lasts from March to May. The climate is warm and flowers are everywhere. This is a good place for outdoor travel. Summer lasts from June to September, and it is hot and humid. Many Koreans choose to spend their holidays in this season. Autumn lasts from September to165438+1October. The weather is mild and autumn scenery likes it very much. This is a good season for traveling. Winter lasts from 65438+February to mid-March, and it is very cold under the influence of Siberian cold air. The snowstorm in northeast Korea provides the best conditions for skiing.

Time difference in Korea: The time difference in Korea is earlier than that in Beijing 1 hour. For example, Beijing time is noon 12, and South Korea time is afternoon 1.

Korean cuisine: Walking in the streets of Seoul at night, you can always see "kurama vomit" (pronounced in Korean) on the street, which is what China people call roadside stalls or food stalls. There are all kinds of food on the stall in the dim light. Oh, the lake exudes hot air, fried rice cakes are soaked in thick red pepper sauce, with bubbles, golden "fried food" has an attractive luster under the light, and purple rice sausages are put aside to join the miscellaneous fried ranks. Every time I pass by "throwing kurama stubble", I can't help but be attracted by it. The fragrance floating from the stall mobilized all my taste cells.
