Majnu-ka-Tilla transforms into vibrant Korean cultural hub in Delhi

Majnu-ka-Tilla, once known as Little Tibet, is evolving into a vibrant hub of Korean culture in Delhi. This transformation began in the late 1990s, driven by the global popularity of K-pop and Korean cuisine, attracting visitors from across India. The area now features numerous Korean restaurants, shops, and cafes, offering traditional dishes and fashion. Social media has played a key role in promoting this cultural shift, making MKT a popular destination for those interested in Korean culture. The rise of K-pop and K-dramas has sparked a growing interest in the Korean language among Indian youth. The Indian government has included Korean in school curriculums, reflecting the increasing cultural exchange between India and South Korea.
