Drinking customs in Korea
Do not fill your own glass when at a business meal in Korea. To do so is to imply that your host is a poor host. Also do not be offended when he passes his empty glass to you, fills it and expects that you will drink the contents. This is a gesture of friendship. Drink the contents and return the favor.

a friend ship starts in the meal by pouring each other glass or/and share the same glass

With more interaction with other cultures in the world, people are more aware that although friends still drink together, each one should use his/her own glass:).
