Site terms

Terms of use.

These terms set practical boundaries for using Korean Food Guide and explain what readers should independently verify.

1. Acceptance and permitted use

By accessing Korean Food Guide, you agree to use the site lawfully and in a way that does not interfere with its operation or other visitors. You may read, link to, and quote brief portions of the guide with clear attribution, subject to applicable law.

2. Informational content

The site provides general cultural, culinary, and dining information. It is not medical, nutritional, allergy, legal, travel-safety, or professional advice. Recipes, manufacturing processes, restaurant practices, ingredients, prices, and availability change and may differ by place.

Anyone with an allergy, intolerance, religious restriction, pregnancy-related concern, medical condition, or strict dietary requirement should confirm ingredients and preparation directly with the cook, manufacturer, or restaurant and consult a qualified professional when appropriate.

3. Accuracy and updates

The editorial desk aims to use reliable sources and clear qualifiers, but does not guarantee that every page is complete, current, or error-free. Cultural practices and food traditions can have legitimate regional and family variations. The site may correct, expand, reorganize, or remove material without notice.

Our sourcing and correction standards appear in the Editorial and Sourcing Policy.

4. Copyright and permitted reuse

Unless a separate credit or license says otherwise, original text, page design, graphics, and AI-assisted original brand assets are protected by applicable intellectual-property laws. Third-party photographs and source materials remain subject to their creators' or licensors' rights.

You may not republish substantial portions, remove credits, scrape the site in a manner that degrades service, impersonate the publisher, or use the content to make misleading claims of endorsement. Search engines and research crawlers may access the site in accordance with robots.txt and applicable law.

The site links to cultural references and may display Google AdSense advertising. External sites, advertisers, products, and services are controlled by their own operators. A link or advertisement does not mean that Korean Food Guide endorses every statement, product, or practice on the destination site.

Advertising does not determine editorial definitions, source selection, or recommendations. Advertising and privacy details appear in the Editorial Policy and Privacy Policy.

6. Prohibited conduct

  • Attempting unauthorized access, disruption, vulnerability exploitation, or malicious code distribution.
  • Submitting unlawful, threatening, deceptive, infringing, or sensitive personal information through the contact form.
  • Generating invalid advertising impressions or clicks, encouraging others to click ads, or manipulating advertising systems.
  • Using automated requests at a volume that materially impairs availability for other visitors.

7. Availability and liability

The site is provided on an “as available” basis. To the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, Korean Food Guide disclaims implied warranties and is not responsible for indirect or consequential loss arising solely from reliance on general site information, third-party content, or temporary unavailability. Nothing in these terms excludes liability or consumer rights that cannot lawfully be excluded.

8. Changes and contact

These terms may be updated when site functions or applicable requirements change. Continued use after an update is subject to the revised terms from the effective date shown below. Questions can be submitted through the contact form.
