5.00Shout out to Geunsu as my tour guide, he is really fun and such an amazing tour guide to share Korean culture/ food history and interesting stories for Korean dramas in relation to Tongin Food market. Especially the story about King Sejong who invented Korean alphabet so called as Hangul is really fascinating. Really unforgettable stories from Geunsu
