Korean Lunch Box at Tongin Market

Today we get a taste of traditional Korean lunch boxes at Tongin Market (통인시장). Back in the day, Korean mothers would pack dosirak (도시락) for their children to take to school and husbands to take to work. These boxful of munchies would be made of assorted side dishes, including kimbap, seaweed sheets, jangjorim, gyeranmari and savoury pancakes. Students and office workers these days often buy lunch now. But if you want the dosirak experience, head to the neighbourhood west of the Gyeongbokgung Palace. Make sure to bring 5,000 won in cash per person to exchange for old-school Korean coins! Watch to see the food adventure unfold :)
