Free Soju

I've been in Korea for so long that it's hard to spot the differences between here and home. During our sports day a few weeks ago it was obvious I was in another country when the Grandparents were invited to play a game. They went fishing and the grandpas successfully came away with green bottles of soju while the grandmas got elbow length dish washing gloves.

If this were back home grandpas would of been given the gloves and the sponsoring of an afternoon of drinking in public would of been outlawed, leaving the grandmas to make do with coffee or juice (probably the cheap orange stuff from McDonald's).
