Line 4:
In many [[Korean Series]], it is used to show the difference between commoners and the rich.
 
In certain Asian countries, this is actually considered good etiquette -- ifetiquette—if you were really enjoying the food, you ''would'' get ahead of yourself and get sloppy, right? In Japan itself there are some older folk who hold that slurping makes the ramen taste better, similar to the 'bubbling' of wine tasting.

== [[Anime]] ==
* Dr. Layon from ''[[Zoids: New Century Zero]]'' does this more than once. It's definitely to help show how childish he actually is, despite his almost painful attempts at securing his dignity. The similarly-pathetic Tigers Team does it at one point as well.
* Domeki, the [[Teen Genius|Teenage]] [[Gadgeteer Genius]] of ''[[Dai-Guard]]'', usually does this while hunched over in her [[Hacker Cave]], analysing the newest [[Monster of the Week|Heterodyne]] or designing parts for Dai-Guard.
* In the ''[[Pokémon (Animeanime)|Pokémon]]'' anime, May is seen doing this (with nearly ''[[Big Eater|30]]'' bowls no less!) in her [[Image Song]] ending.
* Hideki, Mako, Ichiro, and Yukika of ''[[Nerima Daikon Brothers (Anime)|Nerima Daikon Brothers]]'' do this as part of a song, including singing the sound of slurping.
* ''[[Lupin III]]'': Inspector Zenigata does this from time to time, seeing as he mostly eats that stuff due to his lengthy chase after the titular character not allowing for enough time for a full-course meal.
