For those curious about the food at 4:10 떡꼬치 Tteok kkochi (pronounced like duck-coachy) is grilled skewered rice cakes. Tteok (떡) are Korean rice cakes similar to mochi but firmer and usually served as a savory dish such as 떡볶이 tteokbokki (rice cakes in red sauce). Kkochi (꼬치) just means skewer in Korean. The version Annie had with cheese is definitely less common, whereas the version with sausage is very easily found at Korean street markets and festivals, usually costing only around 1500~2000 KRW or $1-2 US. The sausage version is called 소떡 sotteok (so-duck), combining the Korean pronunciation of sausage 소시지 (so-see-jee) with tteok. And the sweet snacks at the end 호떡 hotteok (ho-duck) are traditionally filled with a combination of brown sugar and chopped seeds and nuts. As a side note, hotteok in Korea usually only cost 1000 KRW max or less than $1 US, so these were definitely a much pricier version!
Thanks Annie!
Please don’t ever stop bringing us great videos from Universal but I really love you “adventuring “ out into the local area!!! ❤
This was cool.
First K-POP & now K-BOB? What's next? Great video Annie. Worth visiting on a visit to Florida. I hope they do well.

Thank you so much for the explanation! This is really great info. I knew I was probably mispronouncing things, but I tried my best lol
