What do you mean there’s more to Korean food than fried chicken? From K-BBQ to Korean fried chicken, Korean food has firmly placed itself as a top choice for foodies across the nation. But there’s more to Korean food and dining than fried chicken and sizzling pork belly barbeque. Joined by Illa Kim, director of SOUL Group, Shona and Harry dig into how Korean food is changing in Sydney and how it has impacted our experience as Korean-Australians.

Say Kimchi is a podcast about Korean culture but not as you know it. Hosts Shona Yang and Harry Jun offer a snapshot of Korean culture through a Korean-Australian lens.
