HA NOI (VNS) — A special lecture at Ha Noi University on Tuesday morning will focus on Korean cuisine.

During the three-hour lecture, Professor Jung Hee Sun of Sookmyung Women's University in Seoul will teach students about dishes that have been featured on several South Korean TV series. He will elaborate on the ingredients, origin and meaning of each dish and explain Korean gastronomy culture in general. Students can then test their knowledge with a quiz.

Organised by the Korean Food Foundation in collaboration with the Sookmyung Women's University, the lecture marks Hangeul (Korean Alphabet Day), an event held on October 9 in South Korea to commemorate the country's native alphabet.

Currently 13 universities across Viet Nam teach Korean Studies, with about 2,000 students attending. — VNS
