Got a friend overseas who you want to invite to Korea, or fancy yourself an aspiring chef/decent videographer? 

For a chance to win a four-day culinary whirlwind trip to Korea, get someone to shoot a video of you whipping up your favorite Korean dish with a dash of your local cuisine, then upload the clip on www.youtube.com/visitseoul

Sponsored by the government and Asiana Airlines, five lucky winners will be announced on November 4 and flown to Korea on November 23 for a full Korean cuisine cooking experience that includes a session with Korean chefs, making kimchi, a final cooking competition and lots and lots of eating. 

"We hope the cooking audition will further stoke global interest in Korean food and enhance understanding of Korean culture, and attract more foreigners to Seoul," city officials told the Korea Herald

The contest is only open to foreigners residing outside Korea. Go to welcome.visitseoul.net for more information.
