Her Name is Han - NYC

We were by Hearld Square, so decided to walk over to Ktown for some lunch.
According to Yelp, this place has a high rating, figured can't hurt.
Cute and direct menu, no frills.  Self proclaimed hone away from home for Korean Nationals, this is a good home cooked comfort food for those who wanted a little bit of comfort food from home.
I started out with a Cucumber Limeaide, it is very refreshing, not too tangy and not too sugary.
For entree, I ordered the Bulgogi Bibimap.  I love the color and the side dishes, of course.  The Bulgogi itself had different kinds of vegetables and shredded egg.  Not to mention, we had side dishes that I've never seen before.  I know the soup and kimchee are given.  Surprisingly, the kimchee  (upper right corner) is not too spicy, and I can take that.  

The ones I've never seen before, was the Topping tofu (middle right), it has sesame seed sauce with dried fish on top, doesn't taste bad, just never had that before.  The pick scoop is potato salad with beet, that's why it's pink.  Taste-wise, nothing outstanding; visually, it's definitely different.  Of course you also get the turnip slices, cucumber, and spinach on top.

Since we were talking about Korean cuisine, we also stopped at Line Friends pop up in Time Square.  If you don't know what Line is, that is their messaging system in S. Korea.  They have an app that not only lets you message, you have these cute characters for your emoji.  They also have the camera app that is very advance and allows for alot of customization.  
Not only do they have stamps, stickers, and frame virtually for your photos, they also partner up with various groups and designers to create new characters.  They are all available in emoji format within the Line app.  While they do have some sets of emoji for free (i.e. a lot of Cony, Brownie sets for free), they do charge anywhere between 0.99 to 1.99 for a set of emoji/designs.  There are so many sets and so many themes that the possibilities are truly endless.  Should you want to go, they are in the middle of Time Square.  Unfortunately, there's alot of constructions going on in the area, so it is congested.  More so than usual, so take it easy.
