Gwangju Buk-gu Hosts Exhibition of Completed Works by Food Course Students in the First Half of the Year

From the 15th to the 16th, Buk-gu, Gwangju Metropolitan City announced on the 14th that it will hold an exhibition of completed works by food course students at the Namdo Local Food Museum's first-floor special exhibition hall.

This exhibition is an opportunity for students to showcase the skills they have learned and practiced over the past four months since March, commemorating the completion of the course and boosting their pride.

Buk-gu operates food courses twice a year by inviting professional instructors to inherit and develop excellent Namdo local cuisine. In the first half of this year, five courses on Namdo traditional food and two courses on representative Gwangju dishes were opened, producing 77 graduates.

At the exhibition, more than 80 participants including students and instructors will directly present about 90 Namdo traditional dishes such as chili kimchi, five-colored flower songpyeon, and zucchini stew, as well as about 40 representative Gwangju dishes including yukjeon (pan-fried beef), duck soup, tteokgalbi (grilled short rib patties), and Mudeungsan bibimbap.

In particular, linked with a special invitational exhibition of Ji-seung pottery works by the Gwangju Jeonnam Hanji Craft Research Association, visitors can also see table settings using traditional Korean tableware in one display.

A Buk-gu official said, "We have been making efforts to inherit and develop Namdo local cuisine by opening food courses every year," adding, "We will continue to widely promote the taste and charm of Namdo through various food programs and special exhibitions."
