Why this website?

Abroad, South Korea is not just about K-food , K-beauty , K-pop or K-dramas . It is best known for its creative and dynamic diaspora, particularly in France.

Artists, authors, chefs and entrepreneurs… Discover the portraits of Koreans living in France , their journeys, their inspirations and their lives between two cultures.
