From giving a tiger and a bear 20 cloves of garlic and a bundle of mugwort (we had to Google that one too!) and being told to avoid sunlight for 100 days comes the mythology that is believed to be the foundations of ancient Korea. This week Janice shares the story of Dangun Wanggeom, the founder of the first kingdom of Korea and traditions practiced in Korean culture today. When we think of modern day Korea, K-Pop, futuristic skincare, kimchi come to mind, but who knew that 10 pin bowling brought over by American GIs in the 50s remains just as popular. Tune in to hear some surprising discoveries ranging from underfloor heating to. blood groups. Stay Cultured, J & N xoxo. Please take a moment to subscribe, review and comment.
