Korean Traditional Liquor Pairing: OmyRose Yeon x Yukjeon 🩷

Why this pairing works:

OmyRose Yeon has bright acidity, refreshing bubbles, and the distinctive sweet-and-tart fruitiness of omija (five-flavor berry).

The acidity and carbonation help cut through the richness of the pan-fried egg coating, while the fruity character adds freshness to the savoury beef.

Because yukjeon is lighter and more delicate than grilled or heavily seasoned beef dishes, it doesn't overpower the sparkling w**e — the result is a balanced pairing that feels fresh, elegant, and slightly festive.

🍵 Korean Tea: The Art of Balance

Korea's tea story dates back to Queen Seondeok's reign, taking root nationwide after King Heungdeok's 828 decree to plant tea seeds on Jirisan Mountain. Centuries later, monk Choui revived it all, teaching that tea and Zen share "one taste."

At its heart is jungjeong (中正), balance in water, leaf, and brewing time. Korea's own answer to Japan's wa and China's zhongyong.

✨ Steamed and roasted green tea, both alive at once
✨ "Cha" stretching beyond leaf tea to yuja, chrysanthemum, ginseng
✨ Boseong's fields, Hadong's wild tea, Jeju's volcanic soil: three regions, one spirit

A thousand years of balance, in every cup🍃

KCC On Stage
🎻 Baroque Cellist Hyunkun Cho 🎼

📅 23. Sep. 2026 (Wed) | 🕗 19:00
📍 Korean Cultural Center

An unforgettable evening filled with pure resonance and quiet intensity. 🎻✨

On Wednesday 23 September, baroque cellist Pio Hyngun Cho captivated a full house at KCC with an extraordinary performance of J.S. Bach’s Complete Solo Cello Suites.

Performing the entire cycle on a single baroque cello with gut strings, Cho brought Bach’s masterpiece to life with profound depth, speech-like intimacy, and brilliant virtuosity. From the serene opening of the First Suite to the expansive radiance of the Sixth, the audience was held spellbound throughout the night.

📰 Want to hear more from the artist himself? In an interview with Werner De Smet for Klassiek Centraal, Hyunkun Cho talks about his journey with Bach’s six suites and why the music must keep its shades of grey. Read the full article here

A heartfelt thank you to Hyunkun Cho for this brilliant performance, and to our wonderful audience for sharing this magical journey with us! 🎶
