For this episode, we decided to live a day as Korean! Korean culture has taken the world by storm in recent years, with their food, drink and music becoming commonplace. I was approached by the Korean Liquor Association to experience it fully for one day, with an emphasis on Korean Traditional Liquor. Joining me were three beautiful Korean promoters, Grace (@luvgahyun), Rachel (@boyeon_aa) and Melody (@melody_melody___), where we all dressed in traditional Korean attire, the hanbok.
We went to Hyang Yeon Korean B.B.Q. Restaurant where we indulged in an extravagant spread of Korean food with a live BBQ station, including Prime Beef Short-rib, Japchae (Korean Glass Noodles) and Buchimgae (Korean Pancakes). We paired Korean Traditional Liquors with the food we ate, elevating the meal greatly.
It was such a lovely experience that we decided to do an elaborate feast for dinner. We headed to Koryo Mart, a mart specialising in Korean products, to stock up on Korean Traditional Liquors that we had washed down the previous meal with. Then, we went to Go! K-BBQ to takeaway food for dinner. Go! K-BBQ dry-ages their meat while also offering the usual excellent Korean fare.
Setting up back at the studio, we ate Korean Beef Stew, Bossam, Stir-fried Squid and Kimchi Fried Rice. Promoter Rachel stood in as a bartender, whipping up delicious cocktails with the Korean Traditional Liquor we got from Koryo Mart. It was a thoroughly enjoyable experience, especially with my three companions and as I rarely drink. Pairing Korean Traditional Liquors with food correctly can enhance your dining and social experience greatly, as I learned during this video.
All the alcohol drank in this video can be found at Koryo Marts and K-Markets island-wide! Thank you, Korean Liquor Association (한국전통주수출협회) and JY Korea Company (www.jykoreacompany.com).
