Musician, teacher, dog-spoiler, wife and mother trying to make sense of my Korean American life. ChiqueAura is a play on words of my favorite Korean phrase "시끄러," which translate to "it's noisy," but spoken with a lot of attitude and irritation

I made too much tteokbokki and offered some to my neighbors in a group chat and no one responded—I guess the spice and seafood were too scary. All I can say is that is was delicious 😋 #moreforme #soyummy #KoreanFood #spicyfood #tteokbokki #떡볶이

I have no formal dance experience other than being on the school pom squad—now here I am over 30 years later taking dance classes with a bunch of GenZ kids—and LOVING it! It is the escape I need from this crazy world. Here is Kpop inspired jazz choreo to Afrobeats—“On my body” by Tyla and Becky G

I had to cancel my scheduled Washington National Opera chorus audition because I got sick just a few days prior--I guess this was a blessing in disguise. I hope #WNO survives the whole #KennedyCenter fiasco

Listen to my mom’s homemade kimchi—you can literally hear the fermentation. If you watch closely you can see bubbles. #kimchi #koreanmom #lovelanguage #koreanfood

My Chinese zodiac horoscope predicts that my business will reach maximum capacity in 2025. I work a few miles from the DC border and most of my clients are federal workers. I’m hoping this means that they all keep their jobs and continue to do the important work that they do 🙏🤞

Yesterday, I made cucumber sobagi for the first time on my own. My parents owned a liquor store/restaurant. They worked 12-14 hours a day, so I grew up eating a lot of fast and frozen food and never learned how to cook Kfood--until recently. #Koreanfood #KoreanAmerican
