read through: Amazon Kindle

the amount of pages/content is not much, but I think it suits this book very much.
if the writer put in much things, it will be more difficult for me to understand or remember all the mentioned things.

writer mentioned most of things from the Korean perspective regarding Korean Lifestyle, from skincare, food, outfit, etc. and also the writer kind of tried to put k-pop a lot on each part of the lifestyle. she also mentioned how these kind of culture started, I meant you are here to read reviews on Korean lifestyle book, right?

there was a review on Amazon saying that better to read online blog regarding these kind of topics, but I would disagree because what keywords are you going to type in if you don’t know what are you looking for, right?

and also, the writer put some reference like some artist you should follow regarding fashion or food or anything, it was really nice from her.

overall its good, but I want to read something that specific like a book of Korean Lifestyle: Fashion, for example. or since the writer experienced writing abroad, try to make ‘localized’ food recipes or fashion styles that available on that country market.

overall, it was a good education.

I really enjoyed this book! I picked it up on a whim at Half Price Books because I recently downloaded duolingo and started learning Korean. Seeing it there just felt like fate. Due to unforeseen circumstances, I read this all in one sitting, but I think if i had had a free afternoon, I would have done the same. It was quick and easy to read! I really liked the stylistic way this book was presented, especially the typeface on the cover and throughout and the pictures. I also like that it will be easy to refer back to. For example, even if I am not ready financially to implement some changes in my lifestyle (skin care is expensive) when I am ready to, I can just come back to this book to look up ingredients and research what is right for me! I also really love the philosophy behind this book and the idea that it is so important to take care of yourself and to be unique to live a healthy and fulfilled life :)
I'd recommend this for anyone interested in learning more about Korean culture, or who watches kdramas/listens to kpop!

Ottimo libro di partenza per scoprire la cultura coreana in tutte le sue sfaccettature.
Non è ovviamente una lettura approfondita e il libro non è molto lungo, ma vi darà un'idea da dove partire, qualsiasi siano le vostre passioni.
I temi affrontati sono: il k-beauty, la moda, il k-pop, i drama, il cibo e l'arredamento.
Non posso che essere contenta che vengano citati sia Romance is a bonus book (il primo drama che io abbia visto), che ci sia una foto di Lee Jong-suk e che venga menzionato Train to Busan. Peccato che non facciano menzione di Goblin e Gong Yoo assieme a quel film! Questo è imperdonabile!

Ci sono molti link e rimandi ad altri siti dove trovare informazioni su quello che vi interessa, perciò dategli un'occhiata, lo troverete di sicuro interessante.

A fun, light beginner's guide of how to incorporate Korean influences into your life. While I enjoyed all the sections I think the section on skincare was definitely the most useful, I definitely want to look into the products and methods. Not very indepth but attractively layed out and a nice starting point to whet your appetite for reading more.

Korean lifestyle book is a very short, basic and general text; it does present some key aspects of the korean lifestyle that are positive and easy to understand, however it is both EXTREMELY BRIEF (so much that you probably know 99% of the information in it already) and selective - it touches only upon few aspects (skincare, style, cuisine, music, dramas) but it doesn't go deeply into explaining any of them nor does it really make any links between anything. I felt almost as if I were reading a teenage blogger... Which was not enough for me. What added to it was the language, and here I blame both the author and translator and editor - in the polish version there's a few mistakes; on the whole though, my issue was that the language is watering down the content; loads of empty adjectives describing style as "sublime, stylish and bold" five times did not give me any idea about how do the people actually dress. Perhaps going into more detail, showing more examples would have been helpful... What I did like on the other hand were the examples that are provided (sadly so few only) and the way the book looks. I'd say it could be a fun position to have as a child to young teen perhaps, who is interested in the Korean lifestyle; not so much for anyone older I'd guess! Still for some nice examples and pretty look and easiness of reading I did give two stars, because apart from not being very informative it was an enjoyable read.

Przydatna ogólna wiedza na temat K-cultury zawarta w ponad 100 stronach! Możemy się od niej wiele dowiedzieć o ich stylu życia, które sami możemy wprowadzić we własne życie. Polecam każdemu🫶

Per quanto ami la Corea questo libro è da primo approccio.
Le informazioni sono davvero cose a livello base che si possono benissimo anche trovare su internet, e se segui o K-pop o kdrama o altro sicuramente già sai quindi dopotutto non molto utile.
La cosa che mi dava davvero troppo fastidio da K-pop stan è che mentre lo leggevo apparivano sempre o le Blackpink o i BTS che nulla togliere ma non sono gli unici due gruppi e non è che tutti ascoltino solo loro :')
