Korean Stuff in Texas – Part Three – Dallas
Listeners Unite!
In part three of our Korean Stuff in Texas series, we take a look at beautiful Dallas, TX. As with the other parts in this series, there's no way I can cover all of the Korean establishments in this fair city, but I would still like to share with everyone the places that I have come to enjoy.

These videos are to highlight four places in Texas where you can expect something Korean-related. I should mention that these videos are from my own personal opinions and viewpoints. Having said that, I hope that if you living or visiting any of these cities, you find the videos helpful.
Okay, let's talk about Denton. It's located north of Dallas. It's the home of two universities: UNT and TWU. Although UNT currently doesn't have any formal Korean language classes, it does have a whole mess of other language classes. Including one for non-native speakers. It's an... Show more

The Month of May in Korea is often called Family Month. There's Children's Day, Parent's Day, and Teacher's Day. Korea takes Mother's Day to a whole different level!
