An Evening in South Korea

"Land of the Morning Calm" 


Sunday, 26 July 2026 5:30-9:30PM

McKenzie Manor, 2844 Wilmington Dayton Rd, Bellbrook, OH 45305


Most of us don't get to visit South Korea, but the McKenzie's and the Evan's are offering you the opportunity, "kind of".

Come join them for stories from Ginny and Charlie about their years in Seoul, South Korea, an exhibition of Korean Traditional Fan Dance (Buchaechum), and a wonderful, catered Korean meal.    

  




The authentic Korean meal features:

  • Bulgogi - thinly sliced marinated grilled beef (savory, sweet, and garlicky)
  • Kimbap - rice and various fillings rolled in dried seaweed and sliced into bite-sized pieces 
  • Japchae - stir-fried glass noodles (made from sweet potato starch) mixed with vegetables and beef
  • Sticky Rice
  • Kimchi - various types (cabbage, cucumber, radish, etc.) with choices from very mild to spicy
  • Ojingeo Bokkeum - (Not for the faint-of-heart) spicy, savory stir-fried squid with vegetables
  • Korean dessert


There will be water for drinking and Soju for toasting. You are welcomed to bring other beverages as you desire.

Note: There is a limit of 60 for this event in case we have to move inside, but there will be a waitlist established. Your hosts, Charlie & Ginny McKenzie and Bob & Jeanne Evans, will do their best to ensure everyone who wants to attend can do so.


*Registration cut-off is July 18, 2026*
**Cost $35**
