So awesome to see you guys get to travel outside the country for the first time in a few years.
As a British person living in Korea and married to a Korean, I found this video interesting.
*A few pointers*
4:52 Ramen - It’s interesting to see how colours communicate differently in different countries. I was surprised to see Kyde say the red ramen pot looked a little less scary than the other and hoped it would be not spicey as I see the opposite. In Korea, the redder a pot the hotter the ramen you’ve got. I salute you for finishing the broths btw, I never do that.
13:00 Construction site - No idea what that is. If I was to hazard a guess, it would be where the solo recycling and trash collectors you sometimes see pulling carts sell their collected materials?
14:00 Street parasol - Your guess was correct. They’ll unfold on very sunny days for shade and when it rains.
18:45 Towels - Lots of small towels are used over a single large towel. Whenever I do see a bath sheet or larger towels in Korea, my wife or family always use it as a floor mat and not on their bodies.
18:50 “Clothes machine” - Ahhh, the vocabulary of an expat. I am the same, I always forget English words nowadays.
19:06 Tap water - Tap water is perfectly safe in Korea, however, most Koreans choose not to drink it and choose filtered water or bottled water instead. I believe this is to do with the rapid development of Korea and the stigmas and habits around tap water not changing long after tap water was made safe.
19:40 Bathrooms - Almost all bathrooms in Korea are wet rooms. There are usually rubber sandals that you wear inside the bathroom that stop your feet getting wet when you are using the sink and toilet. Also, there is often a mat on the outside of the bathroom door to dry your feet on. Koreans don’t tend to wear socks indoors as most floors are heated, so there is no risk to getting wet socks in the bathroom. Also, I was surprised to hear that you saw a shower like that in UK? I don’t think I have ever seen a wet room in the UK. The lack of counter space and the poorly designed toilet control panel is not a Korean thing but rather specific to that hotel.
34:20 Breakfast - You’re correct. That is Odeng (Fish cake)
38:45 Yogurt lady - They’re everywhere in Korea. Originally only sold Probiotic drinks but now sell a load of stuff. I think they were originally associated with Yakult Korea, not sure if they still are.
39:00 Pain - Slow escalators are the bane of my life
I am happy to give you guys a tour of wherever in Koreea, whenever you are next here.
Long time fan of the channel! Thanks for the vid
Thanks for all the tidbits! -E
"Bathrooms - Almost all bathrooms in Korea are wet rooms."
Do you mean in hotels/public buildings? Or apartments/houses too?
Oh, man, heated floors! I've only ever experienced that once in Chicago. It didn't even occur to me that such a thing existed! A few years ago I spent the night in the basement apartment of some friends. I never wanted to leave. I live in a basement apartment, but no heated floors. Even though I always wear socks and/or slippers, it's still chilly in winter. Having not frozen feet (especially in the bathroom) was glorious!
@@Yesica1993 I have never been in a Korean apartment that wasn't floor heated and had a wet room as a bathroom. Most of the guest houses and hotels also have wet rooms. If say maybe 50% of public bathrooms are wet rooms.
Oddly, when I first arrived in Korea, heated floors made me nauseous. I got used to it eventually though.
If you ever sell T-shirts you need to do one that's a beagle with a police cap and the words "snitch bitch".
They should really do this - pretty sure I wouldn't be the only one buying 😂
Just let you know, there is a foodwaste bucket with lid next to garbage bin in every convenience store in S. Korea. You dont need to drink all the broth of cup noodles to be polite.
14:00 That structure provides shades in harsh weathers.
The structure standing out from the sidewalks you mention at video is automatic parasol that gives shade, sensing the temperature and wind. Really hot in korea during summer.
Do you hear my shout of joy!!!!! Kyde and Eric are travelling outside Japan again!!!! I am so excited!!!! You are the best!!!
Eomuk is fish cake and phonetically = ‘oh-mook’. Later featured in the breakfast.
Pretty sure that garbagey place is a junkyard, especially given the presence of that hand cart (as in 40:58).
Thanks Kyde and Eric great video
I totally know what you mean about being someplace where you don't understand things. I've only ever been to Europe so I haven't had much of that, but when I went to Minsk all anybody spoke was Russian. It was amazing. I felt like a little kid too and it was awesome.
Yes! It's like being a little kid again in the best way. -E
It's fascinating to me that anyone would enjoy that. It would make me feel disoriented, isolated, and panicky! I would feel that way even if I was with someone else. I've seen vids of solo travelers doing it and it's stressful to me just watching. What if you're lost or need emergency help and NOBODY understand you and you can't understand anyone? Or even signs? Makes me freak out a bit just thinking about it.
excited for another K&E adventure abroad!
ah hey. I was just in Seoul a couple weeks ago and was similarly interested in the crosswalk structures. The ones in Seoul didn't have the electronics, but some of them have little seats. I think you're right that the primary function is to get people out of the rain.
Have you been to Saigon? My wife and I had the same issue with hotel bathrooms there. The big trend was to have the bathroom just be a glass box inside the room to give the feeling of more space. It seriously took over an hour of scouring online to find a room where you couldn't see directly in. Some of the bathrooms were right by the bed... and unfrosted.
hahaha wild. we have been to Saigon, but didn't have that experience. I wonder if this is sort of some sort of new trend. -E
it good to see u guy travelin out of japan again
oh exciting!!
woooooo, korea seires start, already liking it, love that there is so much food around on the streets, also sniffer dog, and liked the rant on the hotel
You guys are too acclimatized to Japan spicy😂 Korea is next level. What a fun adventure for the ol' taste buds.
can't wait for the opening of the K&E Interior Design co.
Hello you guys! I think it was recently your birthday Kyde, happy birthday to you (I only remember because my birthday is very close). I've been watching your channel for 10 years now and it's been great seeing your journey's through the world.
23:15 I just noticed the Gwar T-Shirt. Loving it!
Nice vid - looking forward to more :) No zombies though, so a little bit disappointed.
If i saw that wall of ramen i would be a very happy girl!!! Great video as always
catching up, man those 'modern industrial' walls in the hotel sure are ... something
It's a good thing Eric ate the banana then!
Yes and a ripe one too isn't that an event?!.
yea, not the best lol
Yea, I’m a dude and watching another man eating a banana makes me feel uncomfortable. Especially when we make eye contact :-)
Wow the long waiting movie outside Japan Perfect i want the see more and more!
HELL YA, NEW VID LET'S FUCKING GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!
You chose the hotel. There are so many different hotels. You get what you pay for!
9:36 - different Asian countries have different chopstick lengths & materials for them... not sure where I learned about this, but I know Chinese ones are longer, and Korean ones are one of the shortest.
I took Jeju air to Jeju from Osaka. Nice one week there as well.
That little girl looking askance at the security robot . . . Priceless! 😂 1:30
I've seen escalators in videos of Spain that are more like a tilted moving ramp. No steps. That seems safer. How many countries have those?
Koreans often add slices of cheese to instant ramen. You put it in with the hot water, stir, and use that as a kind of softener...makes it creamier.
14:30. Good night and sweet dreams.
makeup ur mind are u trainin or busin to korea??
I laughed at “KATIE IS ON A SH:IT LIST YALL”
Yes, yes she is, and your reaction was hilarious. ALso, her reaction to the spicy noodles.
I was going up the escalator at an Airport and an elderly lady right in front of me toppled backwards.
I caught her and she said she has no idea why she fell backwards.
hey man sometimes you just gotta fall a little...i guess. glad you caught her!
@ 12:09, is that a spiciness meter?
I just took the ferry from fukuoka to busan 😊❤
I want to do that some day! -E
I'm a car guy and i check out cars wherever i go and in busan i noticed some strange blue styrofoam blocks glued to the side of the car doors. I had to google it and found out they're used in transport to prevent door dings and people just leave them on. I was reminded of it while watching your video @ 36:27 a car with blue blocks rolls by. This is something i think only happens in korea. People there must hate door dings or its a status symbol to have a brand new looking car?
Cars have dense foam under rubber/plastic bumpers sometimes. Cheap, lightweight and replaceable.
Yea, we noticed and assumed the same. -E
38:03 it looks vaguely like a traditional "humbug" from the UK or Canada, albeit less stripey. It's a Victorian era candy, it sounds like it doesn't taste like them though. The Victorians loved their glassy hard sugar candies.
40:41 Don't they have recycling bins for glass and aluminum??? In Montreal, where I live, it's been at least a decade since we have public recycling bins next to most public trashcans.
The Korean sauna (jjimjilbang) nearest to Busan's train station refuses non-Korean customers, or at least it did when I was there. Maybe management has changed.
12:21 How spicy is it compared to Shin Ramen?
Can someone tell me the name of the song at 11:40 ?
While the bowl instant ramen is ok, the ramen in the packaging that you cook in a pot is much better. A newish thing in Korean convenience stores is you can cook the regular ramen in these disposable bowls, in the store. The machine next to where you got the hot water cooks the ramen in a few minutes.
Eric, knowing that Kyde makes most of the decisions about travel, but you are the person than monitors your channels, what was the calculation to fly fly from Haneda to Seoul and then travel overland to Busan, versus, flying out of Narita directly to Busan?
It was cheapest and also avoided going all the way out to Narita. -E
You know the food is spicy when it burns as much on the way out as it did on the way in 😀
Why do I keep thinking about Nigel Tufnel’s backstage mini bread catastrophe .
I was in Daegu! I miss South Korea...😔
The Hotel room looks like something a Politician would design ...Looks ok ...
costs a lot and useless.
Spicy nicey 😮
How did Kyde not equate red packaging with spicyness? I thought that was the common assumption the world over whenever you can't read the local language -- red = spicy haha
Hey K & E
Welcome to Korea.... Why don't you follow the manual to make a cup ramen......
Enjoy while in Korea.
When I saw the color of the soup I was..😂😂😂 ohh boy,this going to be bad 🤣🤣🤣😂😋..After TSA took Kyde apple everything turns out to be another way 😂😂😂
That structure is a sunshade
Kyde hoping that the noodles that she got aren't spicy.
Me, knowing that those noodles are spicy and waiting for Kyde's reaction to them...... lol
Hi baby
any plans to give china another try? Try Nanjing, I think Nanjing is somewhat different from most Chinese cities, it has a lot of history and culture.
Not really hyped about another trip to China, to be totally honest. Not ruling it out 100%, but there are a lot of places we'd probably pick over China again. -E
OK I am one of those people guilty of whipping out the translator app on my phone when I travel. Next time I am in a country where I cannot read anything I will try to go blind
No shame in using a translator! -E
Kyde Appleseed.
20:36 "What kind of gymnastics does a motherfucker gotta to do to get his undercarriage clean with that thing?" 🤣🤣🤣
I would have given the middle finger over apples like really 😂
THe utter beauty of the truth bombs in here 💣
#japlan
There's nothing wrong with noticing/saying things are different in a different country. I mean, you can't NOT notice it. But "different" doesn't have to mean mean worse. Or better. Even if it does, so what? Some things are objectively better or worse in different countries. That's just an observable fact about the world. And some things are subjectively worse or better, depending on your own personal preferences. Again, there is nothing necessarily wrong with any of that.
Yea, we also don't just want to make a bunch of videos comparing things really, lol. -E
Concept was OK, bad execution!! Now after checking to see if every fridge door is reversible now you will critique each room. Love it!!! ❤❤❤ 😂😂
bad apple dog 😂
37:34 Number 4: "Never get high on your own supply"
🌶🌶🌶
Where are the ZOMBIES ?
As a Mexican, Korean and Thai spice are meh . India is legit spicy
I used to think I had spice chops from eating a lot of hella hot Mexican food, and being good with Thai food....then I went to actually Thailand and it's a different game lol -E
I've watched the movie Train To Busan, I think I'd be terrified to go there in person. Although I did go on a train journey across the UK to see a friend the day after watching the film. I knew nothing was going to happen, but I was a bit creeped out all day 😄
🧟♂️ uug ug...
Now I am trying to think of where/when I saw the trailer for that freaking movie. I don't even know why I would've clicked on it, since zombie movies are not my thing. Gross!
Around 1:30 - What does the airport robot do? It says "security" on it but it looks like a bomb! Doesn't inspire a feeling of safety/security in me. Run away, little girl!
My guess is it funnels money into someone's pocket who sold them to the airport. -E
I will never understand why people insist on eating food that is so spicy that it causes pain.
Agreed……I think of it as a spicy colonic.
@@mtwhatley3253 Burns twice as bad going out as going in.
honestly? I have the world's weakest spice tolerance - I refer to myself as the whitest person ever to exist - and I do it because it's fun every now and then. Sometimes really strong flavors give your taste buds a kick, even if it hurts for awhile afterward 😂
@@danielwalker26 yes…..check the scene from the klumps at buffet. Must be exactly like that scene. 😆
its fun lol -e
Did you hear any air raid siren for north Korean missile flying by ?😂 you like kimchee?You find cultural people difference ?
Too spicy you can always add cheese
that's a wonderful way to live life hahah -E
I mean, google translate exists. y'know. lol
sure, but that's so not fun. -e
Is South Korea really in Korea?
(in Korea!)
@@kydeanderic Isn't it a separate country from North Korea? x
Closed - minded couple who seems to know only that one plus one equals two
lol
Please elaborate.
Karen in korea! The lady got nothing but complains. Even keep trying to pick out the negative things are not matter.
Karen in the comments! funny how that works lol
seriously how can you survive on a cup of noodle after such a long travel. You guys look so thin do you not eat much food in Japan?
We take care of ourselves. -E
That’s good to know. I guess it’s common thing in Japan to have smaller portions from the RUclips videos I watched not sure why though.
This why we need open immigration.❤ Life is way too short to only experience one culture. Oh and did the strawberry smell have a little citrus as well?😂
If by "open immigration" you mean allow thousands of people to enter illegally and then financially support them, while neglecting your own citizens, NO. That's like saying everyone should leave their houses unlocked for anyone to enter whenever they feel like it, so that you can "experience" your neighbors and anyone else who may show up.
Bit of a whinge-fest.
in a sense, that's a whinge of it's own lol. Thanks for joining it! -E
CHeck out their usual vids, they’re very positive ppl, but they are perfectly allowed to express themselves. They also made valid points.
Sorry, couldn't finish the video. Endless whining and complaining.
lol, no worries. -E
the way Mikey Chen loves Kimchi and Hot oil really makes me wanna try them. then again I kinda wanna try Natto even if the spider webbiness of it is freaky AF.
I forgot to follow you guys when I created a new RUclips account! It’s been over 10yrs! Been in SK for a few years now and the spicy is something I have never adjusted to. Also, SK McDonalds video??? Loved those old vids
Haha, I don't think we made it to McDonald's on this recent trip. Guess we need to go back. -E
