| Cultural Insight |
| Becky: Now it's time for a quick cultural insight. |
| Kyejin: In Korean restaurants, you need to ask for the bill because you don’t pay at the table; you always pay at the front of the restaurant. Also remember that you don't have to tip in Korean restaurants. If the place is really nice or you're with a big group, a service charge might be included on the receipt, but you'll never be expected to pay more than the amount shown on the bill. |
