ABOUT NANOOMI:
Nanoomi is the first site to bridge the Korean and English blogospheres, and the first case in which a well-established Korean media-tech venture, Tatter & Media, has funneled efforts into highlighting English-language blogs in Korea.
나누미는 태터앤미디어가 세계 최초로 설립한 한글과 영어 블로고스피어를 이어주는 블로그 입니다.
세계와 한국의 블로그를 통틀어 깊고 다양한 이야기들을 공유할 작가,번역가가 모인 한국을 사랑하는 사람들의 커뮤니티 입니다.

In the past, Tatter & Media (http://tattermedia.com/), which claims over 200 of Korea’s top “power bloggers” as its partners, had focused exclusively on Korean-language content. But, in response to worries about “linguistic isolation” on the Internet – in which people who speak the language interact only with each other online – Tatter is helping us get our expat bloggers an opportunity to reach a Korean audience. This is happening not only through the site, but also with podcasts and Android apps that are in the works.
과거 태터앤미디어는 200여 파워 블로거 파트너들에게 한국어 콘텐츠를 제공하는데 주력했습니다. 그러나 “언어적 고립”에 대응하고자 한국의 잠재적 유저에게 다가갈 수 있는 기회를 제공하려 했고, 나누미를 통해 다양한 언어를 말하는 사람들이 서로가 온라인에서 상호작용을 하고 이를 팟캐스트와 안드로이드 어플리케이션으로도 이어지도록 노력하고 있습니다.

Nanoomi is a “bridge blog” with writers who span the language divide with their content. For example, among Nanoomi’s 25+ bloggers:

Joe McPherson (ZenKimchi) will tell the world about Korean food, while also offering the Korean government and companies suggestions on how to market their food overseas.
Robert Koehler (The Marmot’s Hole) and Matt VanVolkenburg (Gusts of Popular Feeling) provide English-language readers translations of Korean news, document the country’s urban development and offer historical perspective on current issues.
Darcy Paquet and Tom Giammarco (KoreanFilm.org) open up Korean cinema to a global audience.
Simon and Martina Stawski (Eat Your Kimchi) provide a fun look into Korean life and pop culture through their entertaining videos.

나누미는 자신의 콘텐츠로 각자의 언어를 통해 에디터를 거쳐 함께하는 브릿지 블로그 입니다. 나누미를 구성하는 25인의 블로거중 예를 들어 조 맥퍼슨(ZenKimchi)과 제니퍼(FatManSeoul)는 해외 시장에 그들의 요리 레시피에 대한 한국 정부 및 기업의 제안을 제공하는 반면, 한국 음식에 대한 이야기를 전합니다.

로버트(The Marmot’s Hole)와 매트(Gusts of Popular Feeling)는 한국 소식과 역사를 번역해 제공하며 다시와 톰은 (KoreanFilm.org) 전세계 관객에게 한국 영화를 전합니다. 아울러 사이먼과 마르티나는(EatYourKimchi) 그들의 엔터테인먼트를 통해 한국 생활과 대중 문화에 관한 즐거운 모습을 제공합니다.
Please feel free to invite anyone who would be interested in this event. If you have any questions, please feel free to contact Cynthia Yoo, Nanoomi’s founding editor (editor@nanoomi.net); Hannah Bae, Head Editor (hannahbae@gmail.com); or Hyeon Chol Yang (yang000n@gmail.com).
이번 파티에 어울릴 주변 동료를 초대해 주세요! 궁금하신 사항은 언제든지 신시아, Nanoomi(editor@nanoomi.net), 한나(hannahbae@gmail.com)혹은 양현철(yang000n@gmail.com)에게 문의 주시면 감사드리겠습니다.

We hope you can join us on the 6th!
11월 6일 나누미 파티에 여러분의 많은 참여 바랍니다!

MREs from around the world

fatmanseoul — Tue, 07 Sep 2010 00:53:28 +0000

The New York Times has a fascinating look at the contents of MREs (Meal, Ready to Eat) from countries around the world. These field rations offer a remarkable look at what different nations find edible and portable, fit to feed their soldiers on the go. Check it out here (영어링크)

막걸리 World Cup

fatmanseoul — Fri, 02 Jul 2010 08:29:02 +0000

For once, a competition Fatman can enjoy without being picked last in gym class!

Sure, the Korean team may have been knocked out of the World Cup, but you can always enjoy a cup of makgeolli in consolation. Or, take a more celebratory tone by turning your attention to the Makgeolli World Cup ~ this clever cafe on Naver has matched different makgeolli with different countries for a showdown that leaves everyone a winner. Check out the current rankings here, and try some at home for your own special world cup experience! Or, head down to your local makgeolli bar (Fatman recommends 친친 in 홍대) to cheer along.

Zen Kimchi’s TEDxSeoul talk!

fatmanseoul — Thu, 17 Jun 2010 05:54:41 +0000

For all those of you who couldn’t make it to the event itself, the Korean subtitled version of Zen Kimchi founder Joe McPherson’s TEDxSeoul talk, “How should the Korean government promote Korean food” about ideas for successfully globalizing Korean food is now up. Enjoy, and congrats Joe!

Oh yeah, and some other clown had something to say about how blogging has influenced food culture in Korea. Hmmm.

Hwarangi’s Lotte Lowdown

fatmanseoul — Fri, 23 Apr 2010 05:51:41 +0000

Fatman often briefly thinks about doing more reviews of Lotteria’s uniquely Koreanized take on fast food, but Hwarangi at A long time ago when a tiger smoked a cigarette . . . (whew! even the abbeviated ALTAWAT is a mouthful!) seems to have done it already . . . Go checkout her review of the new Red and White Burger, and . . . well, just about everything else on their menu. See how Lotteria will lead the future of Hanshik!

TEDxSeoul!

fatmanseoul — Sat, 27 Mar 2010 02:57:37 +0000

FatManSeoul has gotten right back into the swing of things by giving a short presentation on Korean food blogs, blogs about Korean food, and what this means for globalization and popularization of Korean food for TEDxSeoul‘s salon at General Doctor! Our action-packed 3 minutes (ok, 4 . . . you didn’t really think we could keep it that short, did you?) talked a lot about how Korean food blogs ended up taking their current form, and how it influences the food here, all while showing us the values and interests of diners. Korean food blogs are an anthropological goldmine of information! (more on that later . . .)
Speaking of food blogs, the Venerable Joe McPherson of Zen Kimchi fame also gave an invaluable talk on what works and what doesn’t in marketing Korean food to foreigners. There were even more fascinating lectures on the role of a Korean NGO in distributing food in Haiti after the earthquake (English, 한국어), the importance of food in the poems of Baek Seok, Korean drinking habits, and makgeolli! It was an amazing event, and everyone there was incredibly knowledgeable and interesting. Plus, great food and great drinks ~ could life possibly get any better?

Congratulations! 축하합니다!

fatmanseoul — Mon, 12 Oct 2009 01:00:13 +0000

축하합니다 to Joe McPhearson and Eun-Jeong, the Zen Kimchi pair: They go together like 신라면 and 소주! Peanut butter and jelly! 오징어 and 땅콩! Cheese and crackers! 빈대떡 and 막걸리! Congrats to you both!

축하합니다! Congrats!

Fatman Fotos

Fatman의 사진에 대하여…

최근에 우리는 우리가 찍은 사진에 대해 몇 가지 질문을 받았습니다. 그래서 우리의 촬영방법에 대해서 간략하게 소개할까 합니다. 첫 번째는, 우리의 장비입니다.

We’ve fielded a few questions recently about our photography, and we thought we’d make a brief post talking about how we shoot. First of all, our equipment:

gracias, Nikon!

We use the Nikon D60, one of their entry-level DSLRs aimed at the casual user. While we sometimes use the AF-S DX Zoom-NIKKOR 18-55mm f/3.5-5.6G ED II because it’s light and easy to haul around for long slogs, our workhorse lense is the Sigma 17-70mm F2.8-4.5 DC MACRO.

우리는 DSLR을 처음 사용하는 일반 사용자들을 위해 출시된 니콘 D60을 씁니다.

가끔 AF-S DX Zoom-NIKKOR 18-55mm f/3.5-5.6G ED II을 쓰기도 하는데, 이 이유는 장시간 동안 일을 할 때 가볍고 쉽게 들고 다닐 수 있어서 입니다. 참고로, 우리가 주로 사용하는 렌즈는 Sigma 17-70mm F2.8-4.5 DC MACRO 입니다.

When absolutely needed and not disruptive to other diners, we sometimes haul out our Nikon SB-600 Speedlight Flash.

가끔은 음식점에 있는 다른 사람들에게 피해를 주지 않기 위해서 니콘 Nikon SB-600 Speedlight Flash를 쓰기도 합니다.

We do post-process our photos through a variety of programs, but primarily GIMP. Post processing is generally minimal, with minor adjustments to things like white balance and color so the food you see in the photos looks like the food we actually ate.

우리는 사진을 게재하기 위해 다양한 프로그램을 사용하지만 주로 GIMP를 씁니다. 일반적으로 게재하는 과정에 있어서는 화이트 밸런스나 색깔만 조금 수정하기 때문에 여러분이 사진을 통해 보시는 음식들은 실제 보이는 것과 별반 다르지 않습니다.
