Here's a Greeting from the Director of KCCN, Mr Lee Jin su




A Few weeks ago we announced a Seollal song contest. We received beautiful entries and we are glad a good number of people tried to sing the popular Seollal song. Here’s a video we put together using some of the entries we received for the contest. We hope you have fun watching this! 




20 participants of this contest will receive Korean Snack pouch, 2021 Calendar and Korean face mask. 



Korean rice cake soup (Tteokguk or Ddeokguk, 떡국) recipe. 


Tteokguk is a soup made of diagonally sliced rice cakes simmered in beef broth, 

garnished with pressed meat, and fried egg white and yolk strips. This is a must have food on New Year’s Day in Korea.
