Yo, they don't stop drinking and the bars won't close until they do. I remember walking by young adults passed out on the sidewalk in front of a bar because leaving before your boss was frowned upon. I can hold my alcohol but S. Koreans put me to shame! and the food is delicious.

I found some Soonhari soju at my liquor store lately. ~13oz bottles, 12% abv. I just assumed it was meant to be drunk like a wine. Blew me away that its meant to be drunk in a single sitting like a beer.

Soju is usually fairly nasty, and the listed ABV% is a dirty lie, with most being around 20% in reality.

The ones I got were flavored, and ranged from "overwhelmingly cheap, acrid, artificial flavor" to "flavored water, cant even taste the alcohol".
