Hansik, Food for the Future: You are What You Eat
Everyone has a type of food that he or she enjoys. The countless different types of food based on one’s culture, environment, and preference make it hard to even distinguish among them. Now, we wish to ask a question to our visitors: “How will you eat? What will you eat? How long can it be sustained?” The reason for this question is that the food we eat everyday sustains our bodies, propels our lives and forms the cultures we belong to.
With Hansik (Korean food), as the theme of the Korea Pavilion, the longstanding traditions of Korean food, which has its base rooted deeply in harmony with nature, will present a feasible and sustainable food alternative that can be used for all future generations.
