Seen on display at the front of my local @waterstones #northfinchley Have you indulged in this as yet? #newscandinoir #koreanthrillers #koreanliterature #ThePlotters #KimUnSu #SoraKimRussell

Do you know there is a #koreanversionofchess #koreanchess called #janggi #장기 ? I have not played it but would very much like to! I played western chess earlier today!

Thank you @tiltedaxispress This little beauty came in the post the other day #translatingfeminists #againsthealing Edited and translated by #emilyjungminyoon #anthology #koreanpoemstranslation

So what if I don’t happen to be in #korea for the #cherryblossom #cherryblossomseason this year. There are perfectly picturesque trees right here in #london #kensingtonandchelsea Why its almost like Iooking at a row of cherry trees if I tilt my head and squint my eyes?!🤔Right???😔

Do you know how to write #gelato in hangul? #젤라또 😋😋 @badiani1932 #London #nottinghill #맛있다 #swiperight👉

Minhwa class on Friday @kccuk Following on from the opening of the #Minhwa exhibition, the Korean Cultural Centre held a class inviting participants to take part in the style of #minhwa with expert artists flown in from Korea to give advice. It was #hard #어려워요 #재미있어요 #fun at the same time. I loved learning the techniques and tried hard to stay in the lines! Sure I had some help (that is not my hand in the pic!) There were laughs, tears and friendly words of encouragement. But the end result is a fashionable brightly colour #totebag of colours of my own choosing ! 😬😢🤪 Thank you to artist @minhwa_kwonjungsoon for a great evening and class. #swiperight👉 for all pictures.

Opening night of the #minhwaexhibition @kccuk with #ambassador #EnnaPark celebrating four fabulous artists painting traditional Korean folk art. #swiperight👉🏼

Thank you @korea_net_ for featuring my webtoon in the recent edition of the #koreamonthlymagazine #March2019 #LeavingKorea #DiyaToon. #swiperight👉

The next #bookofthemonth for the #koreanliteraturenights in #april and I have the honour of moderating this #remarkable #truestory of an orphan #YiJin written by the amazing #kyungsookshin and translated by the brilliant #antonhur #TheCourtDancer. @kccuk #koreanliterature @pegasus_books

Ahh, get ready to swipe right! The #cherryblossomseason in Busan Korea brings out such beauty. Really wish I was there now #March2019. Taken by my bestie who is living there. All I can do is live #vicariously through her and these pictures! 😊And so it is my desk top pic on my #imac! #koreanet

Even though its the start of the week... its been a long week! 😪. Getting over something called #labryinthitis does take its toll on you and your skin! Its definitely time to refresh and use this @innisfreeofficial #olivehydrogelmask to boost my #tiredcomplexion 😬#koreanskincare #facemasks

Listening to @bbcradiolondon and the recording of the #novusstringquartet playing their pieces of #respighi and #berg composed in the 1920s. This concert was recorded recently at @wigmore_hall on Monday 25th March. Novus String Quartet was established in Korea in 2007, achieving widespread success. They won their first prize at the International Mozart Competition in Salzburg in 2014 #koreanclassicalmusician #classicalmusic

Its just a video of the cup filling up.. nothing more. But so #hypnotic and delicious 🤤🤤 # morningcoffee #morningespresso #thatfirstcup ☕️ Video made with #imovie

Homer : “How hard can it be to build a reactor? Korea did it and look at the quality of their animation” 😂😂 #Korea #simpsonskorea @thesimpsons #nuclearreactor #season16Episode5
