Forum Context

Bringing Korean food into culture, economy, and the world.

The Korean Food Forum presents K-Food as culture, economy, and global exchange. Youngmi Yi's U.S. branch work turns that mission into hands-on food culture programs for colleges, culinary students, cultural institutions, and community audiences.
