Why do Koreans live longer than the rest of us? According to research from Imperial College London, South Korea is on track to lead the world in longevity, with average life expectancy set to exceed 90 years. So what’s their secret? In today’s episode, Nicola Barron is joined by Michelle Jungmin Bang, author of Sun and Ssukgat: The Korean Art of Self-Care, Wellness, and Longevity. Michelle shares insights into the Korean approach to well-being, from the role of tradition and sustainability to the mindful self-care rituals that contribute to a longer, healthier life.
