This is one of my favorite parts of learning, and it is about talking about foods in Korean ^_^ hehehe. Here I will go over some of the words used to speak of food, mostly any words used will be assoiciated to Korean foods that we eat in the country. (I'm sure we all kno about kimchi hahaha). There are so many words to be used to describe food, that I will be making two parts to this subject. Enjoy!
