Celebs put on their best hanboks to celebrate the New Lunar Year

Jewelry_20080206_popseoul

Hanbok, the Korean traditional dress is worn during the holidays and although the practice is becoming obsolete in modern day Korea, it’s great seeing celebs embracing our culture to its fullest.

On sul-nal, Koreans typically eat ddok-guk, rice cake soup in the morning. Then families gather to bow to elders in return for allowance. This is the best time of the year for underaged kids, but once you reach the legal drinking age, it ain’t so fun anymore, for you are expected to cough up some dough for the youngins in your family.

Happy New Lunar Year!

Check out other lovely hanboks worn by celebs.

Taste of old school K-pop

It’s raining cats and dogs here, which reminded me of the monsoon season in Korea. I tell ya, it was hell – the humidity frizzed up my hair (and I have straight Asian hair!), it was impossible to catch a cab and the whole fuss of folding and unfolding umbrellas everyday was just annoying. But even with the monsoon season, summer in Korea was a blast! School was out and I was able to enjoy all the fun things Korea had to offer during the summer, especially the summer snacks! How much I loved red bean serbet (팥빙수). Ah..those were the days and I present to you a fun mix of Korea’s favorite summer songs. These are summer classics you hear everywhere you go in Korea during the summer.


1) Cool’s Woman of the Beach (해변의 여인) sung by Younha, Brian & Kangin
2) Deux’s Under the Sky (하늘아래서) sung by Lyn & Dambi (Lyn should not dance next to Dambi)
3) D.J.Doc’s Summer Story (여름이야기) sung by Super Junior
