Photo of the Month: May 2014

The Fulbright Infusion’s monthly photo contest is a fun way to allow our community to share snapshots of their experiences in South Korea and beyond. March marks the beginning of a new school year, and thus “Back to School” is this month’s theme. This months’ winning photo, by Helen Li (ETA ’13-’14), shows some of Helen’s high school students performing “Let it Go” at their school’s opening ceremony.

City Guide Review: Venus Kitchen (Seoul)

At Venus Kitchen, a restaurant tucked into a Hongdae alleyway, indie electronic jazz wafts through four floors of laid back southern Japanese vintage design. The food is a high quality bargain, and the scene is an unpretentious chance to experience a unique cuisine. Part Japanese, part Hawaiian, all delicious, Venus Kitchen specializes in Okinawa/Southern Island Japanese dishes.
