✔️ This video is part of the 5th episode of <Korea Travelogue - Sweaty and Bo-Yang-Tak, 'Cucumber Dumplings for the 90-Year-Old Monk'> that aired on July 12, 2024. Bokjeonsa Temple located at the foot of Mt. Jakseok in Cheonan, Chungcheongnam-do. Buddhist nun Yeonjeong, an expert in temple food, is practicing with 94-year-old Monk Manheo. Monk Manheo still conducts dawn prayers despite his old age. Monk Yeonjeong, who holds the hand of the inconvenient Monk and walks around the temple every day, picks a daisy in full bloom and puts it in the Monk Manheo's ear, bringing a big smile to his face. In fact, the two monks are father and daughter. Monk Yeonjeong, who became a monk 30 years ago, began practicing at Bokjeonsa Temple with her mentor's wishes to continue practicing by her elderly father. We have been preparing new food as offerings for Nosunim with all our heart every day, and in the summer, we are preparing nutritious food to help Nosunim recover his energy. We taste a summer feast prepared with all our heart for Nosunim, including cucumber dumplings made by boiling cucumbers and making dumpling skins ourselves, buckwheat noodles made with soybean broth ground with beans, pine nuts, and sesame seeds, and soft mung bean porridge made by boiling mung beans. #KoreanTravel #Nosunim #FatherDaughterRelationship #ManheoMonk #Practice #TempleFoodExpert #Healing #Emotion
