waaa- same in my country using "brother" is just like paying respect to older than u even tho ur not relatives and just stranger(≧∀≦)
I think the brother here is similar to "Hyung" in korean
we use "kuya" here.
We use “abi”
Yeah i just notice we use kuya even tho the guy is way older enough to be a dad or a grandpa
I just realized not all countrys use ''brother'' for respect even though you're not relative. In my country its very common. You don't even have to know the person for use it
