South Korean Colorful Knot

South Korean Colorful Knot

My son bought some South Korean snacks and souvenirs when he returned from Seoul. The above string knot is one of the souvenirs that he bought for me.

South Korean Colorful Knot
I believe that you may have seen the Chinese knot but not familiar with the South Korean knot. Both of them are using colorful strings to knit various folk stuffs. It's suitable to be used as adornment.

If you are fond of Chinese knot, feel free to compare the difference of these two knots and share your opinion.

Korean Ginseng Candy

My son returned home from South Korea for celebrating Chinese New Year. Besides buying green tea and custard pies, he also bought some ginseng candies.

I don't like the ginseng candy because it's a bit bitter. I just ate a few and my wife gave them to her friends. During our tour to South Korea, I bought a few jars of ginseng extract but didn't buy the ginseng candy.

When traveling in South Korea, remember to buy some ginseng products for yourself or your family and friends.
