Korea and India : Two giants in Asia reaching new heights in Diplomacy

  Korea and  India shares many cultural ties from the very past, but I feel everyday being in Korea as a Student living here much more similarities not only in terms of the culture but even the mindset of the people too.Despite of similarities in terms of Buddhism , Colonial Experience,These too Peninsular countries are getting too closer diplomatically.  In this era of Globalisation where Economic Interests plays a major role in Diplomacy,Korea and India can undersatnd each other and can have an examplary Diplomacy not only to the Asian Nations but to the other countries across the World too.Especially for Asia, I see Korea-India as a responsible partners for the Peace and Developement in the  Asian Continent.But at the same time I  want to emphasis  that Academic contact  between the people of these countries is really needed to be increased.It makes me so unhappy as a Student studying in Korea that in most of the parts in a Country like India people are not aware of Korea's long History,its Unique Culture etc. Korean brand Products  like Samsung cellphones and Televisions,LG televisions,cellphones and Washing Machines and Hyundai Motor cars.Indian houses  are full of  Korea's LG,Samsung appliances ,roads are full of Hyundai motor cars but at the same time I would like to add here that many of its users are not aware of this fact that they are Korean Companies.People trust these products and buy them.But they don't know that the  product is a Korean Brand.Being an Indian I  can understand why many people in India still cant recognize North and South Korea well  but when it comes to Korean brands, it  inspires me to study Korea well and after returning to India disseminate this Knowledge  to the Indians too.


Anyways,this was all about a view.Lets have a look of  some of the memorable  and wonderful memories through this pictures which shows the Diplomatic closeness of these two countries not  only headed by   Economy.

किमची कोरिया का मुख्य नहीं बल्कि सह- भोजन(साइड डिश) है ।

<पारम्परिक कोरियाई भोजन का आनंद लेते कुछ वरिष्ठ साथी> भोजन मानव संस्कृति का सबसे महत्वपूर्ण हिस्सा है। कोरियाई संस्कृति भी इस कथन का पूरक है।   कोरिया का खाना यहाँ की सांस्कृतिक पहचान का एक   ऐसा हिस्सा जो भारत और पश्चिमी निवासियों के आहार और प्रचार से काफी अलग है   । कोरिया के भोजन विशेषकर अनाज ( खासकर चावल ) , मांस , और कुछ सब्ज़ियों पर जोर देता है । हालांकि अमेरिका , पूंजीवाद , पश्चिम का प्रभाव और औद्योगीकरण जैसे तत्वों के मेल के साथ यहाँ के लोगों ने पिज्जा , हैमबर्गर और   बीयर को भी अपनाया है ।   इसके अलावा जापानी सुशी और चीन के कुछ भोजन तथा दक्षिण पूर्वी एशिया और भारत के व्यंजनों की लोकप्रियता भी प्रमुख है।     कोरियाई भोजन में साधारणतः चावल , सूप या स्टू , और कई साइड व्यंजन रहते है और लगभग सभी खानों में साइड व्यंजन के रूप में किमची या मसालेदार सब्जियां रहती है । राष्ट्रीय आहार में किमची का सबसे ज्यादा ...
