Korean Dining Etiquette you must know Before starting a meal. In Korea, there are a few important customs before starting a meal. People usually wait for the oldest or highest-ranking person at the table to pick up their spoon before they start eating. It is also common to say โ€œjal meokgesseumnida,โ€ meaning โ€œIโ€™ll enjoy the meal,โ€ before eating. When dining with other people, it is important to show consideration for older people. For example, when a new dish arrives, you may serve some food to an older person before serving yourself. When using spoons and chopsticks. In Korea, people use both spoons and chopsticks, but they are generally used for different foods. Rice, soup, and stews are usually eaten with a spoon, while side dishes are eaten with chopsticks. Unlike in China or Japan, people in Korea normally leave their rice and soup bowls on the table instead of lifting them up to eat. You should also avoid sticking chopsticks upright in a bowl of rice. This looks similar to the way chopsticks are used during traditional ancestral ceremonies, so it can have an uncomfortable meaning. When eating together. In Korea, people often share food at the table. Side dishes and stews are commonly placed in the middle of the table and shared by everyone. When eating with other people, it is better not to reach too far across the table or search through a shared dish for the best piece. If you need more side dishes, you can simply say โ€œBanchan jom deo juseyo,โ€ meaning โ€œCould I have some more side dishes?โ€ At many Korean restaurants, additional side dishes are free. It is also considered polite to eat at a similar pace to the other people at the table. When paying the bill after finishing a meal. When the meal is finished, Koreans often say โ€œjal meogeotseumnida,โ€ meaning โ€œThank you for the meal.โ€ In a restaurant, it is perfectly natural to call a server by saying โ€œyeogiyo,โ€ meaning โ€œExcuse me,โ€ especially when you need something. If there is a call button at the table, you can simply use it. In most Korean restaurants, you pay at the counter rather than at the table, and tipping is generally not expected. When eating with friends, people may either split the bill or take turns paying, depending on the situation. Saying โ€œjal meogeotseumnidaโ€ at the end of a meal is one of the most useful expressions to know when eating in Korea.

Foreign Touristsโ€™ Shopping Habits in Korea Are Changing. First, They start shopping for Korea on social media before they even arrive. Nowadays, foreign tourists do not wait until they arrive in Korea to look for places to shop. Instead, they research Korean brands and shopping destinations beforehandโ€”while planning their tripโ€”by browsing social media, short-form videos, and content from influencers. Once in Korea, they visit the stores in person to see and experience the products before making a purchase. After the trip, they often share their purchases or in-store experiences on social media. It is a cycle of discovering on social media, experiencing in Korea, and sharing back on social media. Second, visitors discover brands in Seongsu and make purchases in Myeong-dong. Recently, Seongsu and Myeong-dong have come to play distinct roles for foreign tourists. In Seongsu, visitors explore pop-up stores and unique shops to discover new Korean brands. In contrast, Myeong-dong and department stores are where they often compare a wide range of products and actually make purchases. Simply put, Seongsu is a place for discovery, while Myeong-dong is a place for purchasing. Consequently, Korean brands are transforming their stores from mere retail spaces into venues where customers can experience and remember the brand. Third, it is not just luxury goods that are popular; the "everyday lives of Koreans" are attracting attention as well. The items purchased by foreign tourists are changing. While they used to focus on luxury goods or famous tourist souvenirs, there is now growing interest in the fashion and food that Koreans enjoy in their daily lives. Trendy clothing, bags, and accessories are popular, as are food items like ramen, snacks, and gummies. For foreign visitors, the very things Koreans actually eat and wear are becoming a form of Korean culture in themselves. Fourth, the shopping experience doesn't end in Korea. Companies now prioritize ensuring that tourists seek out their brands again after returning home, rather than just making a single purchase while in Korea. For instance, they enable customers to scan QR codes in-store to view product information in their native language and sign up for global online shopping platforms. This allows the shopping experience in Korea to translate into online purchases back home. Ultimately, for foreign tourists, a trip to Korea is evolving from mere sightseeing into a journey of discovering Korean brands, experiencing them firsthand, and making repeat purchases later on.
