What To Expect
My class is about experiencing the daily life of local Korean who live today. Many travellers decide to come Korea after watching K-dramas, K-movies, or Vlog of their K-idols but in fact, tourist places do not provide local experience. We will start from the daily grocery shopping, looking around the local villages, seeing Korean's house ("apartments" where most Koreans live), cooking what Koreans eat the most. My product includes detailed recepie of 3 main courses (Kimbap/Tteokbokki/Ramen), and we will learn Korean table manners as well. Kimbap has been popular in different countries such as US, for its taste and nutritions. It is also one of foods that Koreans eat the most. It is not only delicious, but also nutritious; what is more, it looks fabulous with different colours. Tteokbokki is the best pair for Kimbap. If you have always been curious of Korean spicy food, it is a good chance. We can adjust spicy level, no worries. I will also show how properly, and how better you can cook Korean Ramen. There are many different kinds and you can choose and cook your own Ramen. Please feel free to check out my class, let me be your Korean friend and I'm ready to have fun with you!

5.00Min and her husband were so wonderful! We went as a group of 4 for my husband’s birthday. It was such a fun and special experience. We were made to feel comfortable and relaxed. I highly recommend it to anyone!
You don't have to be fluent in English or Korean to enjoy it!

5.00It was a great experience! I wanted to experience the life of the local people in Korea, so this tour was perfect. First of all, they greeted me cheerfully to the ticket gate of Ishimizu Station, and I no longer felt anxious! I bought ingredients to make kimpa and other products at a nearby supermarket before heading home. He explained various products and kindly taught me what I had doubts about. My home was a very beautiful and lovely room. From there, we made kimpa together and made toppogi. The time went by so quickly that they taught me what to look out for when making kimpas and answered my questions. We were so glad they welcomed us with such hospitality, bringing home the kimpas we made and giving us presents of sweets, we chose this tour!! My English skills were only simple words, about the level of junior high school, but I was glad that I was able to communicate using a translation app. It is a little far from Seoul station, so it takes a bit of time to get there, but subway travel is very cheap compared to Japan, so that is not a problem. It was also great to move around while looking at the various scenery! This tour is just getting started and I don't think there's a lot of reviews, but it was really heartwarming. If you want to communicate with the locals or want to know their lives, this tour is for you! I think it is easier to remember because my partner will take a picture and let me have a recipe. Please join us and we hope you will join us! Thank you so much for this time!!
