Seoul expands delivery discounts, vouchers across Han River parks

As autumn weather draws crowds outdoors, Seoul is ramping up financial perks for parkgoers and diners ordering delivery, doubling down on its public delivery alternative amid rising food costs. Starting Thursday, the Seoul Metropolitan Government will expand its dedicated delivery discount initiative across all 11 Han River parks, covering 17 designated drop-off zones. Under the expanded scheme, running through Nov. 30, visitors who order 25,000 won ($18.40) or more worth of food using the city’s public platform, Seoul Delivery Plus Ddangyo, will receive an immediate 3,000 won discount. The program expands on a pilot project launched in August that originally covered just three parks. By extending the timeframe to two full months and opening delivery zones in popular spots like Yeouido, Ttukseom and Banpo, officials hope to give picnickers a cost-effective way to enjoy outdoor dining. Customers paying with Seoul Love Gift Certificates will gain additional rewards. Orders exceeding 15,000 won yield a 3,000 won rebate, while purchases over 25,000 won earn a 5,000 won digital voucher ret

Mexican broadcasters turn spotlight on Korea's soft power, tech vision

Mexican broadcasters TV Azteca and Imagen Television turned their cameras to Korea’s cultural rise and approach to artificial intelligence (AI) during three special documentaries aired last Thursday through Saturday timed to President Lee Jae Myung’s state visit to Mexico. The programs, produced in cooperation with Korea’s Ministry of Culture, Sports and Tourism, explored the roots of Korean cultural influence through the vision of independence leader Kim Koo and examined how Korean society is preparing for an era of human-centered AI. TV Azteca’s “Kim Koo: el sueno que conquisto al planeta (Kim Koo: The Dream That Conquered the Planet,” broadcast Saturday, presented K-culture as the result of long-term investment in education and culture rather than a passing trend. The documentary also traced historical ties between Korea and Mexico through the 1,033 Koreans who moved to Yucatan in 1905 and supported Korea’s independence movement. Imagen Television’s “La apuesta que cambio Corea,” broadcast Thursday, examined how Korean traditions such as “jang” and “hanbok”

Seoul Grand Park showcases nature's botanical predators

Long a sanctuary for native flora and exotic animals, the Seoul Grand Park Botanical Garden is turning the spotlight on nature’s most cunning hunters: carnivorous plants. Starting Oct. 2, the park will host its 20th annual carnivorous plant exhibition, a 10-day Exploring North American Carnivorous Plants with JBS showcase. Set in the Welcoming Garden near the main entrance, the event features more than 700 specimens across 16 species native to North America — ranging from the iconic Venus flytrap and dew-beaded sundews to cobra lilies and butterworts. To make the botanical science accessible to families, park organizers are framing the exhibit around JBS (Jabasseu), a whimsical fictional mascot group created to celebrate the botanical garden’s 40th anniversary. Made up of five characters modeled after insect-eating plants — including Fly, Taeyang-i and Sara — JBS acts as a pop-idol-style guide, leading visitors through an interactive journey tracing how these plants thrive in the wild. Carnivorous plants are evolutionary marvels. By adapting to nutrient-poor soils like peat bog

Nvidia CEO Huang receives this year's Van Fleet Award for contribution to Korea-US relations

Nvidia Corp. Chief Executive Officer (CEO) Jensen Huang received an annual prestigious award for his contribution to enhancing the relationship between Korea and the United States, a nonprofit organization said Monday. Huang was honored with this year's Van Fleet Award in recognition of his "visionary" leadership and "transformative" contributions to the artificial intelligence and semiconductor industries — sectors central to the deepening economic partnership between the two countries, according to The Korea Society. The award was given during The Korea Society's annual gala in New York. Samsung Electronics Co. Chairman Lee Jae-yong and SK Group Chairman Chey Tae-won also joined the event. Named after Gen. James A. Van Fleet, commander of the U.S. Eighth Army at the height of the Korean War in 1951, the award has been given annually to those who have made notable contributions to the bilateral relationship. Former honorees of the award include former Korean President Kim Dae-jung, Korean War hero Gen. Paik Sun-yup, former U.N. Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon and former U.S. Presidents

Express Bus Terminal underground mall reinvents itself as K-fashion runway

Beneath the concrete sprawl of Express Bus Terminal lies Gotomall, a vast subterranean labyrinth of roughly 620 shops better known for budget impulse buys than haute couture. Now, city district officials are attempting a high-fashion transformation, turning the sprawling underground market into an interactive runway. Starting Sunday, Seocho District in southern Seoul will launch the 2026 Goto-Sebit K-Style Up Festa, a monthlong campaign aimed at repositioning the underground shopping hub as a premier destination for modern Korean street styles. Running every Sunday through Oct. 25 along Picasso Mural Street, the festival pairs the market’s affordable wardrobe staples with professional styling by beauty experts. The initiative highlights the Goto-Sebit Special Tourist Zone, designated in late 2024 as the only tourism district in Seoul to encompass the Han River. Spanning the transit terminal, Banpo Han River Park, the floating island of Some Sevit and the underground passages of Gotomall, the zone blends commercial retail with riverside leisure. While the district previously hosted pop
