Homonym: 다도 (Tea)
다도, or the "Way of Tea," is a traditional Korean practice centered around the preparation and enjoyment of tea. It emphasizes mindfulness, respect, and harmony between the host and guests. The process involves selecting high-quality tea leaves, boiling water to the right temperature, and using specific utensils to brew and serve the tea.
In 다도, various types of tea, such as 녹차 (green tea) and 홍차 (black tea), are often used. The practice is not just about drinking tea; it also includes appreciating the aesthetics of the tea ceremony, the beauty of the tea utensils, and the serene atmosphere created during the experience.
