EXO have been recipients of 57 awards from South Korea and mainland China.

The following weekend, the song achieved number-one wins on Show! Music Core and The Music Trend, becoming a "triple win" hit. It also won a champion trophy on music program Show Champion.

They originally debuted as 12 members, who were also split into two subgroups: EXO-K and EXO-M, performing in Korean and Mandarin respectively. Three members have since left the group, and the remaining members perform as the singular group, EXO. Three members also form the sub-group EXO-CBX.

Namiseom Island became a popular tourist attraction after appearing in the Korean drama “Winter Sonata (2002).” Originally just a hilltop, Namiseom Island became an island with the construction of Cheongpyeong Dam, which elevated the surrounding water level. The island is rather small, allowing visitors to complete a full tour within half a day. The island’s effort to preserve nature and reuse recyclable items is quite noteworthy

Namiseom Island, also known as Nami Island, got its name from 16th-century General Nami who died at the age of 28 and rested there. The Island was formed in 1944 when the construction of Cheongpyeong Dam on River Han resulted in the flooding of the land. In 1965, around 2,000 trees, including those of White Pine, White Birch, Tulips, Cherry, Redwood, and Ginkgo, were donated to the island by Byeong-Do Minn.
The island has its own currency, telephone card, postal stamp, and even a passport

In 1394, during the early days of the Joseon Dynasty, the capital of Korea was moved from Kaesong, in modern day North Korea, to Seoul, known then as Hanyang. When the capital was moved, a new palace was required and built. When construction was completed, Gyeongbokgung Palace became the heart of the capital of Korea along with the head of state of the Joseon Dynasty.

Gyeongbokgung Palace was the major legal residence of the royal family during the Joseon Dynasty. Carrying a meaning of “a place where the new king can enjoy prosperity of great blessings,” this was the first palace built during the Joseon Dynasty. The palace is unique for its vast area and harmony of buildings, and is the only palace to have all four major gates still remaining to this day.

Banchan is an important part of Korean cuisine, from the most humble, simple dinner made at home to a full spread seen at janchi ceremonial celebrations and royal court cuisine. It is absolutely indispensable and always — always — accompanies any and every meal. Even pubs and street food stalls will offer at least one or two small banchans because it is a definitive part of Korean cuisine. The larger the variety, the more it showcases a quality of care, service and economic stability.

Banchan refers to those delicious little side dishes served at the start of a Korean meal. I like to think of them as Korean tapas. They’re typically offered as ancillary dishes, but Sigol Bapsang in Itaewon serves them as the main course. There you’ll get at least 20 different kinds of banchan for just KRW 8,000 per person with rice and sundubu jjigae.

Like Korean barbecue, bibimbap is one of the most popular Korean dishes outside of the country. It literally means “mixed rice” and refers to a bowl of warm white rice topped with gochujang (Korean chili paste) and a variety of sauteed and seasoned vegetables like cucumber, soy bean sprouts, radish, spinach, and mushroom. An egg (raw or fried) and sliced meat, typically beef, are often added. The contents are then mixed together thoroughly before being eaten.

There are multiple variations of bibimbap, one of the most famous being Jeonju bibimbap. Grandma Yu’s Bibimbap is described as being one of the most authentic places in Seoul to try Jeonju bibimbap.

Bibimpap sometimes anglicized as bi bim bap or bi bim bop, is a Korean dish. The word literally means "mixed rice". Bibimbap is served as a bowl of warm white rice topped with namul and gochujang, soy sauce, or doenjang.

The dish is a descendant of Goldongban which is very similar to bibimbap. Bibimbap was created because of a tradition in Korean culture where people believed that the food which was leftover during New Year’s Eve was not suitable or fit to bring into the New Year. With this assumption, many people then decided to start combining ingredients in a bowl with rice.
