This might be a reference to the Japanese concept called Nomikai, an incredibly common practice where workers go out drinking with their boss. For some workplaces, this can be a worker's only shot to impress their boss or get their attention.
Very similar concept in Korea. I got a job offer there after a three month project I did as a PhD student, and at some point realised it was mostly because I was a good after-work drinker. Which of course was easy, as the only people I knew there were from work, and I knew it was for a limited time. Keeping that up long term? No chance.
