A Special Lunar New Year at Paju Youth Space GP1939
Miniature Class for Youth
Hello! This is Paju Alimi.
Today, I will share how to enjoy Paju Youth Space three times more!
On Saturday, February 7th, from 2 PM to 4 PM,
I participated in a completely different atmosphere program.
A class titled 'Creating My Own Miniature Lunar New Year Feast.'
We learned to create a miniature version of a traditional Lunar New Year meal.
It was perfectly timed with the Lunar New Year season, which made it even more fun!
In this class, we created a miniature feast that included:
✔ Rice Cake Soup
✔ Cubed Radish Kimchi
✔ Yakgwa (Honey Cookies)
✔ Sujeonggwa (Cinnamon Punch)
✔ Tofu Pancakes
✔ Yukwa (Fried Dough)
The angle of placing the garnish on the rice cake soup, the colors of the cubed radish kimchi and sujeonggwa, and the glossy finish of the yakgwa were all meticulously crafted.
Though small, the details were anything but minor!
During the class, we found that the process of creating the miniature feast was quite delicate.
We had to mix the resin and hardener in precise ratios for it to set properly.
Even a slight deviation in the ratio could prevent proper curing, making this step crucial.
The rice cake was made from miniature clay, which we cut into the desired thickness and shape.
Even small differences in shape can significantly change the overall feel.
For the colors of the sujeonggwa and cubed radish kimchi, we mixed pigments into the resin.
The clear purple tone of the sujeonggwa and the vibrant red of the cubed radish kimchi were key points in color adjustment.
We even used small pieces of the clay from the tofu pancakes as pine nuts for the sujeonggwa!
The yukwa was shaped by mixing colors into clay with pom-poms, which was a fun way to express the texture of the snack.
The yakgwa and tofu pancakes were shaped using silicone molds, allowing for uniformity while preserving details.
For the tofu pancakes, we used a cotton swab dipped in pastel powder to create a golden-brown effect, which was a delightful detail.
Finally, we placed the completed dishes in small bowls, attached them with wood glue, and coated them with a topcoat to finish our miniature feast.
I found it fascinating to observe the texture and color combinations of the materials, making it a learning experience that also felt analytical.
Even those who have never made anything by hand could easily follow along!
The instructor provided clear explanations and continuous tips, enhancing the experience.
The material cost was 10,000 won, which felt reasonable considering the composition and results!
You can take your completed work home right away.
This class was a great way to spend a Saturday afternoon, focusing on creating something meaningful.
I highly recommend participating in such experiential programs if you want to add small joys to your daily life!
