A Milan Expo pavilion every day | Day 25: Korea

We stay in Asia for day 25 of A Milan Expo Pavilion Every Day, and it’s time to see Korea’s efforts. This particular pavilion showcases the culinary practices of Korea which were founded on its indigenous traditions, highlighting their benefits and sustainable properties as well as showing how adaptable the food is for everyday life. The Korean pavilion’s theme of You Are What You Eat shows how a healthy diet can affect everything in your life, from appearance to mood, and hopes to encourage healthy eating in order to promote wellbeing as a whole. Multimedia shows, demonstrations of processes typical to Korean cooking such as fermentation, and samples of Korea’s finest cuisine are to be found inside the pavilion, which was designed by Archiban using the delicate, simple and harmonious architectural theme of the Moon Jar, a traditional type of porcelain pot in the shape of a full moon.
