Facebook Group!

Today, I invite you all to check out and join my newly created Facebook group "Global Village Jeju". This group aims to bring people from all over the world together online and then bring them all together in a real village here in Jeju! Please feel free to share it with others who you think would like to promote diverse people of different ethnic, racial, social, religious, and other backgrounds to all come together and share our cultures to build more community in the world! This is a big project, but together we can make a true global village!

Living in Jeju for One Month

Living in Jeju for One Month Hello~ I am the Global Jeju Culture Cooperative Association’s Im HanJi. <--- My team member! ^^ I’ll introduce you to our GJC camp program: Youth Living in Jeju for One Month! 😊 Lots of people come and visit Jeju to enjoy the beautiful sights and island life. But not many people consider staying for a long period of time. Why is that? When you’re working, you have no free time. If you just relax all the time, you’ll have no money. The true dilemma of youth. These days there are many young people working in freelance or just doing odd-jobs. They have the time and willingness to go out and travel, but trying to travel for a long period of time – say, one month – is too expensive… T_T So we’re preparing the GJC “Living in Jeju for One Month” project! “Come and live in Jeju for only 350,000KRW a month!” GJC also offers another benefit! We have a working holiday program that you can j...

How to Make: Pickled Korean Radish with Red Cabbage

Image
Pickling Radishes and Red Cabbages Pickled vegetables are one of the most common side dishes in Korean cuisine. They are easy to make and can feed a lot of people - they also pair well with just about any main dish (especially Korean BBQ and other grilled meat)!!! Let's take a look at how to make some pickled Korean vegetables! First up: Get some Korean or daikon radishes and red cabbage (much sweeter than white cabbage). You will also need vinegar (about one or two bottles, depending on how much you want to make), and some white sugar. However, you can change up the recipe if you like! Try apple cider vinegar to use less sugar, or use a soft beverage like a lemon-lime soda in place of the sugar. (More on that later!) Start by setting up in a nice spot where you'll be able to peel the radishes (like you would a potato) and make sure you have some cutting boards for slicing the cabbage and radish.  Slice the cabbage into small, thin pieces. If you need to, p...

2017.7.16 - Seotal Oreums 43

Image
 One of the most vital aspects of understanding another country and its people is to know that country's history. Visiting these significant locations helps to better understand the culture of the place where you are staying, and thus I give my strong recommendation to pay a visit.  In Jeju, one of the most important historical sites is Seotal Oreums, though it is commonly just referred to as Sa-Sam (43). This site was heavily used by Japanese soldiers during the occupation period in Korean history.  Plane bunkers were dug out by Korean locals - under Japanese command - to house planes during WWII.  From above, US planes could not distinguish the bunkers from other hills and mounds of the mountainous landscape of Jeju. All they saw were Koreans working on the farmland. Today, this place is still considered a very dark tourist site. Locals continue to farm the land and sometimes put on performances in the bunkers. While Sa-Sam has a dark past, the determ...
