This hands-on workshop explores how cultural influences from the north have shaped Jeju's distinctive identity — through the lens of the bean. It focuses on five varieties associated with Jeju and the northern regions, representing the four cardinal directions and the Jeju blue bean. Participants made bean-filled pillows and keyrings, and shared Jeju-style bean soup alongside Middle Eastern hummus, uncovering the cultural meanings embedded in this humble ingredient. The workshop offered a playful and accessible entry point into the Biennale's themes of cultural encounter and convergence as experienced in everyday life.
