I did this interview a while back and had no idea it went live on both Medium and Thrive Global. I re-read the piece and I thought, gosh that girl sounds awfully wise!

Seoul is a foodie paradise. One of the best ways t Seoul is a foodie paradise. One of the best ways to try a little bit of everything is to go on a night market tour. I did just that - while also learning how to play the drinking game APT, and how to make a Soju bomb with beer. 🍻 Here’s what I had on the tour of Gwangjang market: 1. Mayak kimbap (Addictive Kimbap ft. Perilla leaves) 2. Tteokbokki (Spicy Rice Cakes) 3. Kimchi Mandu / Gogi Mandu (Kimchi Dumpling / Pork Dumpling) / Kalguksu (Knife Cut Noodle) / Keolmyeongja Tea (Cassia Seed Tea) 4. Banchan (Korean side dish) / Nakjijeot (Salted Mini octopus), Ssalgae (Marinated Mini Crab) / Maneul Chojeolim (Pickled Garlic), Choseokjang (Pickled Chinese Artichoke Root) 5. Nokdu bean-dae-dduck (Mungbean Pancake) 6. Gogi-Wanja (Meatball Pancake) 7. Yuk-Hwae (Raw Beef/Beef Tartar) 8. San-nak-ji (Live Octopus) 9. Makgeolli (Korean traditional rice wine) 10. Soju / maekju (Beer) / Somac ( Soju Bomb) 11. Kkwa-bae-gi (Twisted Donut) 12. Bulgogi (Marinated Beef) _________ #thelovelist #authorsofinstagram #writersofinstagram #freelancewriter #travelwriter #travel #internationaltravel #luxurytravel #seoul #southkorea #travelkorea #seoultrip #seoulkorea #KoreaTrip #TripToKorea #atp #VISITKOREA #Gwangjangmarket #Gwangjang #markettour #seoulfood #enrouteplaceoftheday
‘Plastic Vaccine’, 2021 Seoul Public Design Co ‘Plastic Vaccine’, 2021 Seoul Public Design Contest Award winning installation on the steps of the @ddp_seoul Translated Description: Due to the prolonged COVID-19, household waste and carbon dioxide emissions such as disposable plastic are increasing rapidly. As various forms of attempts are needed to awaken the importance of resource recycling, we proposed a public facility design that recycles plastic. The bench, which is divided into pipe shape, does not block the gaze and movement of citizens who visit Dongdaemun Design Plaza (DDP) and is designed so that they can be used freely regardless of people’s physical conditions according to the height of the stairs. For safety reasons, this work was made by changing the material from recycled plastic to metal. _________ #thelovelist #authorsofinstagram #writersofinstagram #freelancewriter #travelwriter #travel #internationaltravel #luxurytravel #seoul #southkorea #travelkorea #seoultrip #seoulkorea #KoreaTrip #TripToKorea #VISITKOREA #ddpseoul #explore #dongdaemundesignplaza #dongdaemun
Last year, I went to the La Galerie Dior in Paris Last year, I went to the La Galerie Dior in Paris and was enamoured with the historic collection. The Christian Dior Designer of Dreams exhibit at the @ddp_seoul actually showcased different designs, which speaks to how large the @diormaison archive is. _________ #thelovelist #authorsofinstagram #writersofinstagram #freelancewriter #travelwriter #travel #internationaltravel #luxurytravel #seoul #southkorea #travelkorea #seoultrip #seoulkorea #KoreaTrip #TripToKorea #VISITKOREA #ddpseoul #dior #fashiondesigner #hautecouture #dongdaemundesignplaza #dongdaemun #fashionarchives
