Hallyu

It has been a long time since I last updated my blog. School is just too busy and my life is just too boring.

Anyway, I got know a Korean friend through facebook. She is my language exchange friend. Today, my Korean friend invited me over to her home for dinner. Her parents came to Singapore to visit her sister and her. Thus, this explans my title for this entry. Hallyu refers to refers to the spread of South Korean culture around the world. 

I bought a pandan cake for her parents because they are leaving Singapore tomorrow. I think pandan cakes are really good gifts as they are uniquely Singapore and they are rather nice. Hahha.

Fortunately, I am taking Korean classes in school now and my limited command of the Korean language came into good use because Minjung's parents dont know any English.

Anyway, Minjung was preparing dinner with her sister and mother when I arrived.

Pardon my poor camera skills. Haha. You can see Minjung's dad on the bottom left hand side on the photo.

The delicious home made Korean food that they prepared for me.

They were busy preparing dinner while I went off snapping photos of them! Hahha.

Seriously, the food was awesome!! I had a really sumptuous dinner.

I finally tried authentic Korean cuisine by Koreans!! My favourite food was Bulgogi. They also treated me to a ikan billis salad which was really appetizing. It taste somwhat similar to that which you can find in a Nasi Lemak stall. Minjung's mother told me that she will make me more of that when I go to Korea! Haha.

Trying my best to fit into a Korean family! Hahaha. Fortunately, I am fair enough. Koreans are so fair. I will probably look like a charcoal beside them if I am really tanned!

It's weird because Minjung is afterall not a Singaporean but she seem to be playing host to me instead. Haha.

Anyway, really wanna say a big thank you to Minjung and her family. They are really friendly and nice!!

I will try my best to improve my Korean. The next time her parents come, I hope that I will be able to have a conversation with them!!

I need to go to bed now! I have a presentation tomorrow! Bye!

Updates soon!
