We are what we eat – a saying that takes on many different meanings.

Food does become part of us, a basic building block of our identities as certain scents and flavours trigger memories of childhood, family, and unforgettable moments.

Join HyoJin Park and Joi Lee as they explore the stalls of Seoul’s most famous street food market, Gwangjang Market, and ask the question: “What makes food so personal?”
