Korea.net's official YouTube channel offers diverse and interesting content on Korea, its rich culture, cuisine, language, beauty industry, music and more. The interactive nature of the programs not only allows viewers to learn but also win prizes by answering simple questions.

This month saw the launch of two programs -- "Tournament-K: Hansik" and "Korean Rhapsody" – that I decided to check out.

These two programs are the newest in Korea.net's lineup on its YouTube channel.

"Tournament-K: Hansik" (Thursdays at 2 p.m. Korean Standard Time)

Hosted by MC Lee Hana, this program that premiered on April 8 pits Korean dishes against each other in multiple rounds until a winner emerges. The first episode was about kimchi and the second meat dishes. Viewers won prizes by giving the correct answers to questions.

"Korean Rhapsody" (Tuesdays at 2 p.m. KST)
Launched on April 13, this music talk show allows viewers to experience traditional Korean instruments playing the latest K-pop songs. The first episode featured the gayageum (zither) and daegeum (bamboo flute).
