We're having a hot, rainy summer here in Korea, and due to the high humidity, it's very difficult to be outdoors where there is no any air conditioner. So today, I'd like to tell you a bit about summer in Korea. In this weather, Koreans eat hot, spicy food. It's believed that this helps endure the unbearable summer weather more easily. Perhaps they're onto something. After all, once you finish a hot soup, you'll sweat out all the water in your body and then you forget about the unbearable weather. Speaking of food, here's an interesting fact: Koreans can eat boiling soup without any problems! I don't know how they manage not to burn their mouths and everything else. But it's a fact. Unfortunately or fortunately, I don't have that skill. I tried to find some photos of boiling soup in my gallery but since I can't eat the soup when it is boiling I don't have such pics haha Source: Korean food And I wasn't kidding about
