The DIY tradition.

Many traditional Korean meals are designed for family style consumption and are often cooked at the table by the customer. Although this approach inefficiently requires a burner, stove, or barbecue at each table, the experience could not be matched in a kitchen with a chef. The smell of meat and vegetables cooking right under your nose, the endless warmth of the heat source, and the food tailored to perfection all contribute to a unique experience of bonding with food and people. When everyone at the table orders their own plate, there is an overbearing sense of individualism and entitlement; when everyone at the table helps in the preparation and sharing of the food, an unexplained feeling of unity prevails.
