먹방 (Mukbang) Monday: Kimjang

Well, it finally happened! We didn't get this posted on Monday! Dun dun dun!! Hopefully it is still Monday for most of our readers?
    Anyway, this weekend we had the opportunity to volunteer by making kimchi for underprivileged children. The event was hosted by CJ, a South Korean company with more businesses than I can count! They own a movie theater chain, movie production studio, several tv channels, restaurants, cosmetics stores, and cafes, just to name a few. They hosted this event to share Korean culture with the expat community (Expat is short for expatriate, or someone temporarily residing in a foreign country). There were volunteers from the US army, international students, and CJ employees. CJ also heavily promoted their brands to us and encouraged us to donate to their philanthropy company too! But we didn't complain about that because we were having so much fun!
    The day included making kimchi, obviously, and a short concert by Hi.Ni, kpop artist, a dinner of 수육 (Suyuk = boiled pork), and a movie! "The Admiral" was downright amazing! We cried, laughed, and cheered! I highly recommend if you can see it with subtitles. We will probably buy it :)
Enjoy!
