One of the earliest highlights of being Lord Mayor was hosting the President of South Korea at our State Banquet on 21 November. Imagine my delight when a week later we received two generous large boxes of kimchi, some thirty-plus 2kg packages.
It turns out that our City community enfolds many kimchi devotees like myself. With alacrity, they were all gone within ten days! Now on to mustard from the French president…
There was some very kind Korean news coverage as well. And if you’re in Seoul, the Museum Kimchikan has moved to even better premises as it expands (ferments?).
