ABOUT THIS VIDEO

What is Koreatown, Manhattan?
Koreatown is also know as K-Town. It is a neighborhood in Midtown near the Garment District. The bulk of businesses in Koreatown is on Korea Way which is a portion of 32nd St.

What are the things to do in New York’s Koreatown?
I have three recommendations: Korean Barbecue (Korean BBQ), karaoke, and the Koryo Bookstore.

What is Korean BBQ?
Korean BBQ is when you order a set assortment of meats and sides and these are cooked into a built-in grill on your table. It’s family-style eating, meaning it’s meant to be eaten by a lot of people.

What is Karaoke like in Koreatown Manhattan?
Karaoke in K-Town is where you rent out your own room to sing karaoke. Some places are BYOB so you can bring your own food, snacks, and some drinks.

What is Koryo Bookstore?
Koryo Bookstore is one of the first Korean shops in New York City. Along with other Korean businesses, it help establish the Koreatown we know today. It’s a great place in New York to get Korean books for language learners, K-pop goodies, and Korean face masks and other beauty products.
