Dabang Delhi K
A ''dabang'' () is a Korean-language term for any establishment that primarily serves non-alcoholic drinks. The concept is comparable to that of cafes or teahouses. Even modern non-Korean coffee chains like Starbucks can be referred to as ''dabangs''. Some have dubbed Starbucks ''Byeoldabang'' ().

The dabang led to the origin of the Korean tea ceremony. It is said that Dado was established in other East Asian countries during the 8th and 9th centuries.

However, Dado culture was institutionalized at the national level. According to literature, there was a place where tea was drunk in the Unified Silla period called Daejeon Won (Tea 院), and th ...
