K-drama make-up looks, food demo hog limelight at webinar

K-drama fans from diverse fields discuss their love for all things South Korean

A panel of K-drama fans from diverse fields came together to discuss their love for all things South Korean on ‘K-drama Talk Studio’, an experiential webinar organised by The Hindu Weekend for The Hindu in association with the Korean Tourism Organisation on Friday. “K-dramas have brought people together and, over the last one year, virtual friendships have been formed thanks to the shared love for these shows. This spans across generations as well,” said Puja Talwar, executive editor of entertainment and lifestyle, Good Times, as she kickstarted the webinar. From food demonstrations to recreating K-drama make-up looks, the one-hour webinar went beyond just talk. A big fan of the shows and Korean food, Pooja Dhingra, chef and founder, Le 15 Patisserie, recalled how it had been tough to source Korean ingredients in India till a short while ago. “Things are now changing, and the food and snacks are everywhere,” she said.
