한글 (han-geul)

Hangeul is the Korean alphabet. First created in 1443 by King Sejong (1418 - 1450), Hangeul was meant to help everyone in the nation to easily read and write.

한식 (han-sik)

Hansik refers to traditional Korean food. It is centered around rice and served alongside a bowl of soup and a variety of side dishes. Popular dishes among international eaters include bulgogi, bibimbap, and kimchi.

한복 (han-bok)

Hanbok is the traditional attire of the Korean people. Worn daily up until just 100 years ago, these days it is only worn on festive occasions, such as our festival!
