>The fake science drinking game

A new drinking trend to substitute for the ‘poktanju’ (bombshot) culture has surfaced during year-end celebrations among working people. Dubbed the “Hwang Woo-suk poktanju”, it involves creating 11 glasses of drinks, numbering them 2 to 12. Of these, no. two and three are made of ‘fake’ drinks such as water instead of beer.

The Korea Herald reports a new fad. I’m not sure about the socio-psychological meaning of drinking games, but scientific integrity is becoming an oxymoron.
