Ever wanted to become a kimchi master, but don�t want to sacrifice too much time from your trip? Well, here�s your answer! Located in Bucheon, Gyeonggi-do Province close to the Incheon and Gimpo international airports, the Kimchi Theme Park offers a condensed yet authentic kimchi-making program complete with take-home recipes. The Kimchi Theme Park is also located near hanok accommodations and places offering traditional Korean wedding and folk game experiences, giving you an all-inclusive look at some of Korea�s proudest traditions.
The kimchi-making program at the Kimchi Theme Park starts with a general overview of kimchi followed by kimchi preparation and kimchi sampling. About an hour in the length, the program introduces you to several different kinds of kimchi�pogi kimchi (kimchi made with whole Korean cabbage), baek kimchi (white kimchi made without red pepper powder), and bossam kimchi (brined Korean cabbage stuffed and wrapped in cabbage leaves)�and gives you the freedom to choose which type you�d like to make. After you�ve finished preparing and seasoning your kimchi, you�ll get to reward yourself by sampling the kimchi along with rice cakes and makgeolli wine (provided). Of course, the kimchi that you make in class is yours to keep and groups of 20 or more can even get their kimchi delivered to the airport for free. Take-home recipes for the types of kimchi covered in class are available in Korean, English, and Japanese.
If you�ve ever wanted to learn the age-old tradition of making kimchi, now is the time! From August to November (2012), the Kimchi Theme Park will be offering its kimchi-making program for a specially discounted price of 10,000 won (regularly 30,000 won) to 500 lucky foreign tourists on a first-come, first-served basis. Groups of five or more can also request instruction in English. To sign up for the kimchi-making program or inquire about this special discount, please call or visit the Kimchi Theme Park in person.
