  One quiz! There are photos with pretty roads, pretty clothes, hot places on Instagram, What makes that look more perfect? Yes, delicious and colorful food! Not only are there foods from various countries but also fusion foods that are mixed with foods from many countries, Korea's food culture is blossoming. And today, Let’s talk about fusion foods.


What are fusion foods?


  Fusion food, as the word fusion suggests, refers to a mixture of various food ingredients and cooking methods. It is originally referring to a recipe developed mainly in California, the United States. As more and more different ingredients and recipes are mixed, unexpected combinations of fusion foods are being developed. As a result, the realm of fusion foods is expanding.

Culture develops as it meets with other cultures and is influenced by each other. Food is also a culture, so it is natural for different cultures to meet and mix and develop. In this way, fusion food is the result of the development of culture. Why don't you enjoy eating fusion food today?


Various fusion foods


  There are many fusion foods. I will introduce fusion foods that are popular in Korea.


  First, Kimchi Pizza Sweet and Sour Pork. What a long name! As its name is long, it is a food that has representative food from many countries. Korea, USA and China’s representative food make proper harmony. Three foods that seemed to mismatch are gaining popularity through synergy in Korea. Isn’t that funny?

  Next, Korean-style pasta! There are Kimchi pasta and Bulgogi pasta. They can be unfamiliar, especially kimchi pasta. However, this unfamiliar harmony makes a special favor. This food can make a special day more special.

  Bulgogi burgers made in the TV program ‘Yoon Restaurant’ are transforming Korean Bulgogi into a taste for foreign tastes.This food could capture the taste of foreigners, and the scenes that foreigners eat Korean food very deliciously were very popular and interested Korean people. As such, 'food' is a culture, and it is also an item of TV programs.

Making globalization from your hands


  Have you ever cooked fusion food youself? Or do you have any ideas? Not only just tasting unusual food, but also creating something special with your own hands. Not only is it a special and good experience to create creative food yourself that combines food from other countries, but cooking through many recipes on the Internet will be a special thing to experience food culture in other countries more directly than just eating.



One of the ways to be friends


  Through globalization, a‘foreigner’ is now a person who can be our friend, not just a distant neighbor. Even if we look around right now, we can meet foreign friends such as international students. Unfortunately, I have not seen many cases that Korean students get close with international students, but some students get closer through team projects. Why don’t you make time to talk about each other's culture by eating fusion food with foreign friends? Or perhaps it would be a good idea to make fusion dishes and share stories about them. Let’s make more various friends through food!



  So, food is not just about eating things anymore. Food can be a mood maker, art, and a method of relationship building.And the best way to show this characteristics of the food is fusion food.What if you think of the fusion foods in TV, YouTube, and restaurants as not just food, but think about the meaning that they have? If you think about what culture the foods have, what atmosphere they create, and what role this food has played today, it is probably not just food!
