Why YOU Will Want to Move to Koreatown in Atlanta, GA After Watching This!
There are many Koreatowns in the United States. When someone hears the word “Koreatown”, they might think of L.A. or NYC’s Koreatown first. But do you know about Atlanta’s Koreatown? Perhaps you will consider it after watching this video! With lower cost of living, more suburban space, and a plethora of Korean shops, metro Atlanta may have more to offer for Koreans and avid fans of Korean culture than you may think.
Just like you would find in any bustling suburb, you can find any type of Korean business that is Korean owned and operated such as law firms, banks, jewelers, used car lots, car mechanics, dentists, doctors, clothing, furniture, skin care, wellness shops, PC game rooms, K-pop stores, hair salons, pet groomers, and much more! They even have spas and saunas, often called by itsKorean name “jjimjjilbang”. And of course, I can’t forget to talk about the restaurants, coffee shops, and desserts. At coffee shops, you can find anything ranging from bingsu (also known as Korean style shaved ice) to your favorite bread, pastries, and cakes. You can take your pick at any classic Americano, tea, or fruit juice, as well as specialty drinks. When it comes to restaurants, there is everything here! There’s the coveted Korean BBQ, which has exploded here over the years, going from one restaurant to 15-20 in the area with half of those being in Duluth. There’s also a lot of traditional Korean food like gamjattang, yukgaejjang, seolluntang, and soondooboo.
You can tell I like my choice of soups! Given the immensely huge, and well-established Korean community here, it’s very possible for a native Korean from Korea to immigrate here and have zero English speaking skills, and survive quite well here their entire lives.
