When you, as a foreigner, come to Korea and dine with your colleagues, there's one thing that might surprise you: the banchan. You might be taken aback by the unexpected arrival of these side dishes, but in Korean dining culture, it's perfectly normal to have a variety of banchan accompany your meal.

Unlike Western-style dining, where dishes are served one by one with time intervals, Korean cuisine typically presents all dishes and banchan on the table at once. This 'space-arranged' dining culture is a unique characteristic of Korea. It stems from the Korean people's experience with thousands of years of agrarian society and reflects the '๋นจ๋ฆฌ๋นจ๋ฆฌ' (hurry-hurry) culture.

Here's a conversation with Grace, who is visiting a Korean traditional restaurant for the first time, to help you understand Korea's unique 'banchan' culture.
