Chimaek
''Chimaek'' (; ) is a pairing of fried chicken (either plain '' huraideu'' or spicy '' yangnyeom'') and beer, served as '' anju'' ( en, food with alcohol) in the evening in many South Korean restaurants, including a number of specialized chains. Origin and popularization There is a historic record that indicates a similar recipe has existed in Korea since at least 600 years ago, but which was long forgotten until the late 2010s. Modern ''chimaek'' is believed to have been invented in late 20th century, but it is hard to pinpoint the exact time and place. From the roasted chicken that appeared in the early 1960s to the spicy chicken that was adapted to meet Korean tastes, South Korea has imported and developed a growing variety of chicken dishes. While chicken was gaining popularity, a new draft beer which appeared in the 1970s was also becoming very popular, and it became common for the two to be combined as a single menu item. Moreover, the 2002 Korea–Japan World Cup she ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
Korean Fried Chicken
Korean fried chicken, usually called ''chikin'' (, from the English "chicken") in Korea, refers to a variety of fried chicken dishes created in South Korea, including the basic ''huraideu-chicken'' (, from the English "fried chicken") and spicy ''yangnyeom chicken'' (, "seasoned chicken"). In South Korea, fried chicken is consumed as a meal, an appetizer, ''anju'' (food that is served and eaten with drinks), or as an after-meal snack. Korean fried chicken was described by Julia Moskin of ''The New York Times'' as a "thin, crackly and almost transparent crust". The chicken is usually seasoned with spices, sugar, and salt, prior to and after being fried. Korean fried chicken restaurants commonly use small- or medium-sized chickens; these younger chickens result in more tender meat. After frying, the chicken is usually hand-painted with sauce using a brush in order to evenly coat the chicken with a thin layer. Pickled radishes and beer (or carbonated drink) are often served with K ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |

Drinking Culture Of Korea
Korea's drinking culture reveals much about its social structure, lifestyle, and traditions. The beverages themselves are also reflective of the country's geography, climate, and cultures.

Alcohol drinking in Korea helps create and form ties between family members and friends. Drinking is very present throughout traditional family rituals such as honoring ancestors. Aside from traditional holiday and family ritual drinking, alcohol consumption has modernized and become a huge part of socialization in Korean culture.

South Korean Chicken Dishes
South is one of the cardinal directions or compass points. The direction is the opposite of north and is perpendicular to both east and west. Etymology The word ''south'' comes from Old English ''sūþ'', from earlier Proto-Germanic ''*sunþaz'' ("south"), possibly related to the same Proto-Indo-European root that the word ''sun'' derived from. Some languages describe south in the same way, from the fact that it is the direction of the sun at noon (in the Northern Hemisphere), like Latin meridies 'noon, south' (from medius 'middle' + dies 'day', cf English meridional), while others describe south as the right-hand side of the rising sun, like Biblical Hebrew תֵּימָן teiman 'south' from יָמִין yamin 'right', Aramaic תַּימנַא taymna from יָמִין yamin 'right' and Syriac ܬܰܝܡܢܳܐ taymna from ܝܰܡܝܺܢܳܐ yamina (hence the name of Yemen, the land to the south/right of the Levant).
