*Body language is common in Korea, just like in the West. Thus language has plenty of gestures of its own.
Few useful tips:
1: Give and receive with both hands.
2: When beckoning to an adult or hailing a cab, turn your palm downward (So different from the west) and wave your fingers toward you.
3: All the chopstick rules you may have heard about in China or Japan apply in Korea, so don't point with chopstick, don't stab food with them and don't leave them sticking up in your bowl of rice.
4: If you ever feel inclined to play "got your nose" with a korean child, don't. It's extremely offensive.
