Visiting Dr. Hwang's

Today, Prof. Myung-Sik Kim, Seung-Hwoi and me were invited to Dr. Hwang's house.

I and Prof. Kim discussed a lot about the Chaebol. My opinion was that the Chaebol has some usage to Korea: a risk taking jump in to the new industries. And I emphasized the danger of speculator funds who can drain national wealth. Prof. Kim claimed that the Chaebol must be treated the same as other companies by the government. And he put emphasis on the consumer movements rather than governmental policies.

By the way, we were served with a three-course-meal as well as the appetiser. The appetiser was Chung-mu kimbob styled seasoned radish and baby octopus. First course was the rice and red-bean porridge; second was the boiled beef tail; third course was the bean sprouts rice soup. Those fantastic dishes all were made by Dr. Hwang! I also enjoyed very much with the wines, especially 'Psi' of Ribera del Duero. I first thought that Prof. Kim bought this wine because of the symbol Psi, but it turned out he was actually a wine lover. His selection was excellent and we enjoyed the wine very much.
