cross drinking (러브샷)

The '러브샷 (Love Shot)' is a style of drinking in Korean hospitality, and it involves a kind of cross-armed toast. It usually refers to a style where two people cross their arms and drink alcohol or juice together. This method allows them to hold their own drinking glasses and cross arms, creating a more intimate atmosphere.

Specifically, the two people stand facing each other, cross their arms, and typically drink together in this position. This way of drinking is often used as a means of expressing friendship and intimacy, and it is enjoyed as a fun moment at parties and gatherings.

The Guinness World Record for the 'Most pairs performing a cross-armed toast simultaneously' was set by 2,032 pairs in 2017.

The temperature reached over 32 degrees Celsius and the humidity was very high; however, the participants endured the heat and drank a local version of a Mojito called the 'Kappa Mojito' for the toast.
