What the creator captured
Mark Wiens kicked off his 1,500 km South Korean road trip by rejuvenating himself with a bowl of spicy beef bone hangover soup after an overnight flight. He was particularly impressed by the wood-fired rotisserie chicken in Hanam, noting how the meat was infused with ginseng and garlic while falling effortlessly off the bone. Mark emphasized that this journey, supported by the Korea Tourism Organization, aims to uncover authentic and local flavors far beyond the typical tourist path.

- Avoid tipping at restaurants and cafes, as it is not customary and can sometimes be perceived as awkward or rude.
- Use both hands when giving or receiving items like money, credit cards, or drinks to show respect.
- Press the call button on your dining table to summon a server instead of waiting for them to check on you.
