OH, please do post more photos.


Korea Folk Museum (where I learned about life in Korea from near-prehistoric to recent times, and of the making and the many, many varieties of kimchi)

That must have been fascinating!


I find Korean chopsticks a bit difficult to handle, quite unlike Chinese and Japanese).

You mean they don't have elastics on them?
Hee,hee...joke. I can use chop sticks. How are Korean ones different?

Have a good sleep, see you in the morning.

:-)

Korean chopsticks are steel, and are rectagular in cross-section on the "handle" end (I am not sure about the cross-section of the business end -- I vaguely recall seeing both rectangular and round, but I could be wrong), whereas the others are round.

Granted I'm not familiar with Korean chopstick, but every meal it took a while until I could control them like Chinese and Japanese chopsticks.
