خلفية ثقافية
The 'Hoe-sik' (company dinner) usually happens right after everyone '일을 마치다'. It's often considered an extension of work. Leaving exactly when you '일을 마치다' (at 6 PM sharp) is called 'Kal-toe' (knife-like leaving). It was once frowned upon but is now becoming a trend among Gen Z. In traditional Korean farming, finishing work was celebrated with 'Makgeolli' (rice wine) and 'Saecham' (snacks). In international Korean companies, '일을 마치다' is the standard phrase used in Slack or KakaoTalk to signal availability.
