심청길 비밀레시피: 캘리포니아 과정 발표회 w/ K-Center
전남 곡성에서 출발한 ‘기차연극’, 7월 2일 미국 캘리포니아에 도착
전남 곡성의 증기기관차에서 시작해 많은 사랑을 받은 참여형 연극 **<심청길 비밀레시피>**가 미국 이민자들의 이야기와 만나 새로운 무대로 이어진다. 극단 마실은 오는 **7월 2일 오후 2시 케이센터(K-Center)**에서 이민자들의 삶과 기억을 담은 <심청길 비밀레시피: 캘리포니아> 과정 발표회를 개최한다.
이번 작품은 코로나19 당시 도시락 봉사 현장에서 만난 한 치매 어르신의 ‘물김치 일급비밀레시피’ 이야기를 계기로 시작되었다. 제작진은 지난 3년간 샌프란시스코와 애리조나 지역 이민자들을 인터뷰하며 가족, 고향, 음식, 사랑, 그리고 이민의 기억을 수집했다.
어머니를 떠올리게 하는 복숭아 이야기, 어린 시절 초코쿠키 냄새에 담긴 추억 등 다양한 사연들은 케이센터 회원들과의 워크숍을 통해 하나의 공연으로 재탄생했다.
‘곡성에서 출발한 열차가 미국 캘리포니아로 향한다’는 설정의 이번 공연은 이민 1세대와 다음 세대, 그리고 새로운 이민자들을 연결하며, 음식과 기억을 통해 삶의 위로와 희망을 전하고자 한다.
손혜정 연출은 “이민자들이 직접 자신의 이야기를 나누고 함께 만든 공연을 통해 서로의 삶의 비법(레시피)을 나누는 따뜻한 시간이 되길 바란다”고 전했다.

Walking Tour of San Francisco's Korean Immigration History
Discover San Francisco's Korean Immigration History
Join a Tour, Explore and Learn!
Everyone knows about San Francisco’s Chinatown, but so few know about the small yet vibrant Korean immigrant community that took root here. From the merchants and political exiles who landed in San Francisco in the late 1800s, to the students, activists and families who landed on Angel Island during the Japanese occupation of Korea, these pioneers left their mark with their impressive organizational skills, their fervent anti-Japanese activism and their devotion to family and the church. We will visit locations where the earliest Korean settlers lived, worked and gathered and hear how they created a community to support each other in their new land, in a time marked by extreme hostility and prejudice against Asians.
Tour Info
This is a free walking tour. We will start near the Ferry Building and end in Chinatown.
Tour length: About 1-1.5 hours.
Next Tour: June 20, 2026, 10:30 AM
About the Guide
My name is Rosemarie Nahm. Around 2014, I learned about the immigration history at Angel Island and discovered that about 1,000 Koreans were admitted to the U.S. at Angel Island between 1910 and 1940. This inspired me to study the history of Korean immigration in San Francisco. I also joined the board of the Angel Island Immigration Station Foundation (AIISF) where I gained a deeper appreciation for the shared, collective history of all Asian immigrants. I have written about this history, given presentations at community events, curated an exhibit at the Oakland Asian Cultural Center and now I am excited to share the forgotten stories from the early San Francisco Korean community through this walking tour!
Meet your guide at R-Evolution at 1 The Embarcadero. Please take public transportation if you can. The Embarcadero BART station and MUNI stations are all nearby. Bring water, dress in layers and wear comfortable shoes.
