Ever Heard of Sommeliers for Korean Food?

"Sommelier" is a French word meaning a trained and knowledgeable wine professional who specializes in all aspects of wine service – wine procurement, storage, wine cellar rotation, providing expert service to customers and so on. Now you will be surprised to learn that there exist sommeliers for Korean food as well, especially for kimchi and makgeolli. Cultivating Korean food experts who are not only skilled at cooking, but also well-versed in the theory of the food culture is part of the effort to globalize hansik.
