Company info

I was born in Seoul, so am a real Seoulite. I'm very proud of it. As I grew older I realized that Seoul is such a beautiful city with many historical stories. I love to walk around many Palaces or Inwansan trail near my house. I cook and talk about traditional foods, singing Pansori, and how to wear the Hanbok (Korean costume) See you soon.
