South Koreans consume small but increasing amounts of meat and dairy products.Tea is South Korea's traditional beverage, but many people also drink coffee. Adults drink soju, a distilled alcoholic drink usually made from grain, as well as, known in the West as sake or rice wine.

All Koreans speak the Korean language, which is often classified as one of the Altaic languages, has affinities to Japanese, and contains many Chinese loanwords. The Korean script, known in South Korea as Hangul (Han’gŭl) and in North Korea as Chosŏn muntcha, is composed of phonetic symbols for the 10 vowels and 14 consonants. Korean often is written as a combination of Chinese ideograms and Hangul in South Korea, although the trend is toward using less Chinese. A large number of English words and phrases have crept into the language—either intact or modified by local usage—as a result of the American presence in the country since 1950.
