My interest for Korea goes deeper than just the music and the language. I have, in fact found more I like about Korea than not. Including the culture and the food. Anybody that has culture knows that the food is a very important part of it. It's very hard to get into a language and culture without becoming curious about the food. I don't want to delve too much into my experience with Korean food here. I would like to save that for another entry. But now you know that I have tried my best to deeply immerse myself in Korea without actually having gone there yet. It's not easy but I do what I can.
There is a Korean market just 2 towns away that I visit as often as I can. I always try to stay stocked up on 김치 (Kimchi) and 라면 (Ramyun). I haven't taken too much time to study the culture, but I have learned what I can here and there while learning the language. And now and then I'll watch a documentary or two. This section will be for my Korea etc posts including food, culture and holidays. |
