[K-Culture in Photos] Hanok: Traditional Korean houses in modern life

한옥, 현대인의 삶에 들어오다 Through a single photo at a time, we take a closer look at culture in Korea. This is K-Culture in Photos. Let's start with this Korean word, "hanok." It means a traditional Korean house. Now take a look at this photo. This beautiful hanok is called Sangungarim, located in Seoul's Jongno-gu District. Doesn't it make you want to open that wooden door and step inside? It was recently selected as one of Seoul's Outstanding Hanok, recognized for preserving traditional architecture while transforming the space into a modern gallery and studio. Now moving to the next photo. This place is called "Korea House", another iconic hanok space that recently reopened after renovation. For decades, it has been a place where visitors can experience Korean culture from royal cuisine to traditional weddings or doljanchi a baby's first birthday celebration. And finally, take a look at this scene from a popular variety show called "Hotel Dokkaebi." Set in a hanok hotel in Jeju, the show has drawn attention not just for the story, but also for its beautiful hanok interiors and artwork. Hanok isn't just part of history it's still inspiring modern culture today. These are pojangmacha, or pocha for short Korea's iconic street tents. They usually appear at night, often packed with people sitting close together in small, temporary spaces. It may be simple, but after a long day, it's a place where many people come to relax and unwind. So what do people eat here? You'll often find comforting dishes like steaming bowls of udon, spicy tteokbokki, or seafood stew, sometimes enjoyed with a drink or two. But here's something interesting. This may look like Korea but these pocha-style streets are actually overseas, created to recreate the Korean nightlife atmosphere. And the trend is growing. A major Korean beverage company recently opened a pocha-style venue in Melbourne, introducing Australian customers to Korea's unique culture of sharing food and conversation late into the night. It's a simple street tent, but inside a pocha, you'll find one of Korea's most unique night-time cultures. Take a look at this scene. That huge crowd gathered around a coffee truck they're actually fans of the movie "The King's Warden". Film director Jang Hang-jun recently held a coffee truck event to celebrate his movie's success, personally handing out drinks and thanking the audience for their support. Judging by the smiles, the fans were thrilled to meet him and probably enjoyed the coffee too. Now here's another look at Korea's coffee truck culture. Celebrities often send coffee trucks to drama or film sets to cheer on their fellow actors. These photos, shared on social media, show stars like IU and Park Bo-gum returning the gesture and showing their support. But this culture isn't limited to the entertainment industry. In one case, firefighters' children organized a coffee truck to surprise their parents. And the future residents of under-construction apartments have even sent coffee trucks to the builders to say, "Please build our homes safely." A small cup of coffee but in Korea, it's become a warm way to say thank you and cheer someone on. Those refreshing streams of water are a sure sign that spring cleaning season has begun across Korea. In one scene, maintenance crews are washing down a bus stop, while in another, residents line up for a free bicycle wash service offered by Seoul's Seocho-gu District. The program is designed to encourage safer and more enjoyable cycling as the weather warms up. In Seoul's Gwangjin-gu District, the mayor and local officials are also out on the streets, spraying water and scrubbing public spaces as part of a large-scale spring cleanup campaign. And finally, here in Busan, workers are carefully washing a statue in a park as part of seasonal maintenance ahead of the spring crowds. Cities across Korea are giving their communities a fresh and clean start to the season. #KoreanHanok #Pojangmacha #CoffeeTruck #한국한옥 #포장마차 #커피차문화 #arirang #arirangnews 📣 Facebook :   / arirangtvnews   📣 Youtube :    / Канал   📣 Homepage : https://v2.arirang.com/ 2026-03-16, 14:00 (KST)
