Indulge Yourself from Korean Summer Foods
Of course, you should never miss trying Koreaโs famous summer foods. After all the fun and entertaining summer activities and adventures, you should satisfy yourself with these refreshing and steaming hot foods such as Bingsu and Samgyetang.
Bingsu
Bingsu is a shaved ice topped with chopped fruit, fruit syrup, condensed milk, and other toppings, depending on the flavor. Out of all the flavors, patbingsu or red bean shaved ice is the most common. It is one of my favorite Korean desserts actually. Itโs an ideal food to beat the heat in summer. Make sure to treat yourself to this simple yet delicious and refreshing dessert.
Samgyetang
Samgyetang is a ginseng chicken soup. It is a whole chicken stuffed with ginseng, jujubes, rice, chestnuts, and garlic. In Korea, they traditionally eat this during the summer season. Moreover, they have this belief that eating samgyetang improves body health. You might be wondering why Koreans eat this hot dish during summer. Is it sounds strange to you? Well, Koreans believed that this food will cool down the body, restore inner strength, and provides energy during the hot, humid, and sticky days.

Travel Tips
Summer in Korea is extremely hot so donโt forget to pack and bring sun cream, sunglasses, a hat, a mini fan, and bottled water while traveling. These are very essential, I swear. Also, wear loose clothing such as shorts, t-shirts, skirts, light tops, and sneakers. Wear something that you will feel comfortable in for the hot weather.

Even though it is usually hot, hot, hot, and humid, there are still plenty of fun summer activities and adventures to do and to experience. You can have fun biking, picnic, and other summer activities in popular parks in Seoul like the Hangang parks, although you can do it in other parks across the country, too. Another is, you can also enjoy South Koreaโs striking beach in Busan, the Haeundae Beach. Of course, you might as well, visit Jeju Island, the largest and famous island in South Korea.
