Korean dramas and music first came to our attention in the early 2000s and have stayed with us ever since. Malaysian youths are similarly affected by the Korean Wave. It may be seen in the Malaysian youth’s use of Korean products, which has steadily influenced their lifestyle choices in cuisine, cosmetics, entertainment, and technology. Slowly, a slew of Korean restaurants popped up all throughout Malaysia. In today’s world, you don’t have to fly all the way to South Korea to sample authentic Korean food.
