I\'m not sure that I correctly understand the meaning of \"vice\". Speaking of a habit be considered a vice, drinking alcohol can be a vice. In Korea, people are tolerant of alcohol except for drunk driving. Samgyeopsal(Korean grilled pork belly) and soju(Korean popular alcohol) are popular. Chicken and beer are too. It can be a guilty pleasure when you are on a diet or you\'er suffering from hangover the next morning by too much drinking at a social gathering. But usually we enjoy those food without any feeling of guilty or vice. I\'ve heard that Muslims differ from us. They ban pork and alcohol, so if someone eat pork and soju with Korean friends, it must be a vice. And Thailand allowed cannabis beverages, but Korea is one of the strictest countries over the world about drug. We are not allowed even one drop of cannabis, so cannabis beverage can be a common drink in Thailand, but as Korean, drinking cannabis beverages on the street is illegal and it is considered as a vice. Interesting!
