#8 - Rock Paper Scissors

Koreans can do powerful things with their hands: making Samsung TV's, indicating scorn, and pushing you out of the way on the bus even though they had enough damn room to just walk around you. Yet, these powers are nothing compared to what all Koreans are, it seems, naturally both born with and infatuated by.

To Koreans, Rock Paper Scissors (RPS) isn't just a childhood game, it's a way of life. And they take this stuff seriously.

Solving disputes, showing dominance or simply passing the time are all part of the religion of RPS.

Without it, this country would fall into chaos.
