Join Me On My Journey As I Get in Touch With My Korean Roots
From learning the language to trying my hand at cooking traditional Korean dishes, I’m determined to reclaim the parts of my heritage that (under different circumstances) would have been my birthright. So whether you’re a fellow K-adoptee or simply an admirer of Korean culture, it’s my goal to bring you the very best content in all things Korean.
Korean Recipes
Easy, Authentic Hotteok
I make it like Park Seo-Jun on Youn’s Kitchen 2—served with a dollop of ice cream and a drizzle of chocolate syrup!
Easy, Authentic Japchae
Watching Youn Yuh-Jung make japchae on Youn’s Kitchen 2 made me feel legit to see her version was very similar to mine.
Easy, Authentic Bulgogi
I used to buy pre-marinated bulgogi at Hmart but now I almost always make my own from scratch. It's super easy!
My Why
Bringing the essence of South Korea to every corner of the globe.
This is a place for joy and connection—a place where we can discuss the latest K-Dramas, fan over our favorite Korean celebrities, share our most beloved K-Beauty finds, try our hand at new Korean recipes, and support each other in learning the Korean language.
