I signed up to Surfshark using your code a while back after my NordVPN subscription ran out. Great deal, couldn't believe how reasonable it was. I've tried a lot of VPNs before, but this was the best decision I ever made. Using it on my laptop and phone. Thank you guys! 😊💜
watching your videos on sundays has become a ritual for me...laying on my sofa with my cat sleeping on my tummy while watching your videos...perfect way to relax! thank you two for that♡
You are so right about how great it is to have food already made and waiting for whenever you're hungry. I used to hate leftovers growing up. It wasn't until I started working that I realized that they are truly one of the greatest things on the planet.
I love how you referred the glutinous rice as “a new friend.” Growing up in a Filipino household, the only type of glutinous rice food we ate was “Suman.” A simple dessert, sprinkled with freshly grated coconut and a sugar/sesame seed powder. I have yet to try other forms of glutinous rice meals 💚
Grew up in the Jewish culture. This Lunar New Year actually begins in September or early October. The day is full with religious prayers & afterward family celebration (the last time I attended where my father goes & there was lots of wonderful music!) We would go one night to one set of grandparents and the other the next. Brisket (beef cooked until it falls apart, you would Love it Sarah!)is a staple along with wonderful Challah bread. That's how it was on the east coast of U.S. for me. But, you'll find it's different foods for Jews in other places around the globe. Thanks for asking this question, very interesting. Love hanging out with you, Kyuho, Beemo and your family (actually potato pancakes, for Jews, are made at Hannukah, somewhere around solstice time)
The food looks amazing! I would gladly eat it for a full week lol. Kyuho's mom really spoils you both haha. I made Korean "pancakes" with squash and it was SO good. I was eating them like potato chips. For sure will be making it again. The pears here in the U.S. (at least in my area where pear trees are common) are pretty sweet but the texture is similar to how Sarah described them. Sometimes they can be as sweet as candy. Speaking of candy lol, walnuts are commonly harvested here too and candied walnuts are some of my favorites! Also, the "this should be opposite" line cracked me up LOL.
OMG, I absolutely LOVE this video! Coming off from a high from your previous video of the lunar celebrations, and all the amazing takeaways, it's just wonderful to watch this - it's so awesome to see them all being so well appreciated in a very normal way! I love getting takeaways too, especially well hearty homecooked food. It's just so special, and you can tell that Kyuho's mum puts in a lot of love. And so very generous! Goodness...that galbijjim....she must have made a HUGE pot of it???! Didn't you guys have that like twice on the Lunar Day dinner (like re-filled?), and this portion that she gave to you, was enough for at least 2 meals, for 2 of you? WOW! I love it that you actually gave names to each of the jeon! Maybe you can do one next time for the side dishes, please? It's always so wonderful to watch other countries/cultures and their cuisines, etc. For my family (Malaysian Chinese married to Australian white man, living in Australia), during Lunar NY, our must have is this dish called Lo Hei (YuSheng), it's like a mixed shredded vegies, variety of condiments and sauces - very colourful, and the highlight is the raw fish strips, so, it's also known as the 'seven coloured raw fish salad'. In Australia, I just use smoked salmon as my 'raw fish'. We all stand up around this big platter and toss the ingredients together with chopsticks while saying out all kinds of well wishes for good health, long life, success, prosperity, abundance, etc. During this celebration, the snacks and cookies are also a must-have in the household, and mandarins. The kids bow to my parents and to us and their godparents, and receive their 'angpow' (red packets with money). Ohhh, I love glutinous rice too! But the one I've been brought up with is quite different, as it's more savoury. Usually, the main ingredients are pork mince, black mushrooms, chestnuts, and fried Chinese sausages. this Korean version one looks yum! Thank you for your videos! I always look forward to watching them on Sunday before going to bed! Sooo funny about Kyuho with his subway, haha! Same in my household - the boys get sick of rice/noodles, and want subway or burgers or toasties! I can eat my rice/noodles all the time!
It's early in the morning here and I'm still lying in bed. Seeing both of you eating all of those food is making me so hungry. And I agree that eating leftovers day after day can get quite boring. My husband dislike leftovers but I prefer it since I'm usually the one cooking and I tend to make big batches.
Last scene is soooo cute 🥺 I do that thing too when I eat 김 ㅋㅋㅋ it's the best way! My aunts and my mom used to make traditional foods for huge familiy (like more than 30 ppl?), but after my grandparents passed away, our family was started not gathering as 'Big family', yet just their own small family members. For mine, just my mom, dad, brother and me. We all live in different regions so we do barbeque (삼겹살, 한우), drink and talk to each others. I think more and more family in Korea do as ours in holiday as times go by. Shrinking down, minimailizing all the traditional efforts and using the holiday as chance to meet and catch up.
Oh my gosh, that is one helluva stash of Lunar New Year food! I've never tried different types of jeon beyond kimchi jeon and I feel like I'm really missing out 🥲In my family, we celebrate the Lunar New Year by having a reunion dinner with my dad's side on the eve of the new year, and then on the first day, we have a big potluck lunch together. On the second day, my nuclear family and I go back to my mum's side of the family, where we have more big family meals. Tbh it's been two weeks since the new year and I'm still getting over the food coma 🤣
WOW! That's a lot of delicious food. Enjoy! My favorite side dishes are the bean sprouts, banchan, mandu and cucumber kimchi. Galbi is a favorite of both my husband and I. And my goodness those are the biggest pears I've ever seen! Love seeing Beemo in your videos. Such a good boy.
Been a Korean expat since I was 3. In our family, we tend to celebrate the holidays with a representative food dish from the countries we grew up in. Therefore, it's more of an international feast rather than just a Korean one.
we celebrate Vienamese new year Tết with my boyfriend's family! The aunties used to cook up a feast for everyone but since we're now 47 adults and a handful of toddlers we go to a chinese dimsum restaurant because it's the only place big enough to accommodate us! we still get tons of left overs tho! 😉
When I was younger, I didn't like galbi very much. Because it was what they served at every party. Got sick of eating the same thing. Decades later, I would love it!!😋
Loved this video so much!! I find it always interesting to see what other people had for dinner or lunch haha it’s my fave question to ask. There are some things I could definitely eat 3 days in a row but I also get that sometimes you need a little break!
We have a similar thing to yakshik in Malaysia which originates from China called bazhang or zongzi. It’s steamed rice in bamboo leaves. There’s savoury and sweet variations depending on which Chinese ethnicity you’re from. We eat that during the mid autumn festival.
I like 100 Days My Prince on Netflix and the main romance character chases after those beef pancake fillets ...think are yuk jeon. Thanks for sharing, should try recipe at home.
Oh that food looks amazing!!! It's been cold here in New Brunswick. With the wind chill, it was -47 Friday overnight. Starting to be more seasonal here. Thanks for the delicious video 😊
That all looks delicious! For our Lunar New Year here in Sydney, my mother makes all our Viet classics. We have a braised pork and egg stew, picked veggies, Banh Chung which is a stick rice which has pork & mung beans. Mum also makes a stuffed bitter melon soup. All make ahead dishes that we can warm up and eat with rice. Very simple but comfort foods we look forward to. And we also add some fresh seafood alongside as well! And best part is definitely eating leftovers 😍
Hiiiii Sarah!! Hiiiii Kyuho!! Happy belayed Lunar New Year! Oh my gosh! The dishes and side dishes! Kyuho’s mama’s love language is definitely cooking for you both, and sending you home with many dishes. As a mom of a 26 year old, that I miss every single day-because he lives in another state, I will always make sure he eats well when he’s in town, and I will always send him food products home or through the US mail, or even through Amazon. I am so envious of your family Lunar New Year celebration! The galbi jiim….OMGEEE! I love jeon. I always get the pollack jeon at our local H-Mart. Thankfully, I live near many Korean restaurants and we have a very large Korea Town in Los Angeles. The yaksik looks amazing! I love hotteok. 😊 I’m curious. Do you both like marinated raw crab? I’m dying to try it. Thank you for sharing your week of amazing meal(s) with us! Take care! ❤
Awww~ yeah, sharing food is definitely Kyuho’s mom’s love (and business, lol) language too 🥰 Lucky you that you live near so close to an H-Mart! Kyuho looooves marinated raw crab, but I…avoid it 😅🦀
I celebrate lunar new year with my Taiwanese boyfriend’s family 🇹🇼 we all get together, eat lots of food and play mahjong all day ☺️ first day is at the dads side of the family, second day at the moms side
haha Kyuho at the end with his subway sandwich "I need Bread" after Sarah at the start goes we are mixing it up so we dont get sick of the same thing 😂
The food looks good the second, third, and fourth time around. 😊 Your mother (in law )is so sweet. I’m so sorry that it has been so cold. I don’t know how I would handle weather that cold.
I mostly always, every Sunday eat my dinner while watching your video( Always gives me the push to eat something cause I have ED )This time I got full so quickly cause I was watching food while eating food 😂. Kyuho's mum is definitely very thoughtful and caring, she always gives so many things. 💜
Our tradition is to make sukiyaki on New Year's Day. (I'm an American living in Colorado, but born and raised in Japan.) Sukiyaki makes a great leftover meal. By the way, I recently made your Korean Braised Chicken recipe and it was delicious!!
Ha ha your face, Sarah when Kuyho asked if you wanted blood sausage stew. Mine would be the same. I know I can walk into Sobeys and get blood sausage but, nope just nope....lol. That pear looks delicious. I noticed you peeled it, is the skin not edible? Nancy 🇨🇦
I wanna try 규호's mom's galbijjim! 😅 It looks like it would fill up the room with aroma. Few things beat homemade holiday leftovers when you just want to take it easy 🙂
I made many Asian friends in uni and actually prefer celebrating Lunar New Year vs regular New Years. In fact I work regular New Years and request Lunar New Year off every year 🤣 I make traditional Italian dishes and desserts that we normally eat for our New Year's and bring it over as we have a potluck and I get to eat many delicious and different Asian foods. Many of us are immigrants to Canada and don't have family here so we celebrate it together.
i would just mix jeon in rice with some 고추장 소스 ( 고추장,허니, 참기름, black pepper and sesame seed) and adds in Kimchi as well, like jeon bibimbap. it is delicious as well. as for 갈비찜, since i love spicy foods. next day i would just revamp it but adding some seasoning sauce to it used for 찌개. recently i have added, 쌈장 1작은 스푼, 고추가루 and 참기름 and a bit of sugar to round up the flavors. it was good and deeper flavor.
Get Kyuho to try Peckham pear not sure if you guys get them in Korea. I love Peckham pear the only western type of pear I eat. It is soft, sweet and juicy.
12:43 That's 호두정과(Walnut Jeonggwa). Sarah, you should try 조청 with grilled 가래떡. This is one of my favorite Korean dessert😋. Whenever I visit grandma's house, I gain at least 2kg. lol My mom makes 동그랑땡 for seollal and chuseok. It is delicious but yes, too time consuming... It was worth upgrading your iphones! Makes me so hungry😂
usually for chinese new year the tradition is to have yusheng and steamboat (aka hotpot). but my family is very westernised so our personal spin is to have my mom’s homemade lasagna along with all the chinese dishes 🤣
I want to make that black sticky rice, any recipe pls.. sorry I just show ur video this morning n I'd subscribed , cos it's very entertaining . Thank you
OMG, I would love for Kyuho's mom to cook for me...or to get some of her 설날 leftovers. YUM! I love 전 but haven't had the beef kind, which looks amazing. The only time I've had Korean pears was in a salad from the Korean restaurant. They are sooooo expensive to buy here. One day I will splurge and buy a package (I think they come in a package of 3 or maybe 4). By the way, I wore my new Vessi shoes (I keep calling them Cloud Burst, but apparently it's Stormburst). They are soooo comfortable and even when the NY temps dipped to 2F/-16C yesterday and there was still ice and a little snow on the ground, they were just perfect. And finally, speaking of your sponsors, Surfshark is fabulous. I still haven't changed countries using it, but I love feeling protected and the price is fabulous...especially the deal with your code.
The beef jeon is actually super easy to make! As long as you can get the proper thinly sliced beef (you just ask the butchers here for ‘yuk-jeon cut’ and they know exactly what you want 😅 Omg! So excited for your new Vessis!! Those storm bursts look incredible! They’d be perfect for snowy days and rainy season 👟 I couldn’t watch half the shows I watch without Surfshark, bless them 🥲
@@2hearts1seoul Did Kyuho do a video on making 전? I can probably get the beef. I just need to learn how to make the coating. And yes, the stormbursts are perfect for snowy/rainy weather... and the colors are beautiful. I love my lilac (I forget what they call the color, but I would call it lilac)
Asian culture at its best.. Haha.. We do that too here in Ph after festives.. Enjoyyy.. This vlog completed our Sunday night again I enjoyed watching thank you😊😊😊❤️❤️
Maybe weird question, but it seems like most Asian people peel their fruit like apples and pears. Why is that? Are the skins tough? I was always taught to leave it on as it has the most fibre and vitamins.
I (Sarah) grew up in Canada always eating the peel on fruit (apples, grapes, pears, etc.) so how often Koreans peel their fruit was culture shock for me 😅 Kyuho said when Korea used to be really poor in the past, fruit was contaminated with high levels of pesticides-so maybe that habit stuck?
That is like literally the biggest Asian/Korean pear I've ever seen lol! We regularly get them from the Asian grocery store, and maybe it's just me and liking fruits in general, but both Asian pears and Western pears are good to me in their own way. I'll eat either any day of the week. Bartlett's are my favorite. Love the flavor of that variety. Oh man, Subway! The only food everyone eats in literally every Korean drama known to man hahaha.
Yeah, they’re big to begin with, but the ones in the holiday gift sets are even MORE massive! Hahahah, we just watched a mini documentary the other day about how Subway always pops up in Korean dramas 😂
It is fantastic when your family send you back with a bunch of leftover food but after 2-3 days of thanksgiving leftovers, I need a sandwich, too. 😂 Love them holidays but I am glad it’s not an everyday thing
Yum....I see several things I'd love to try. Korean meals always seem like they would take so much time to prepare....all the different side dishes...a main soup...etc. But I'd love to try the jeon....I think I've seen an onion one...green onion...like a street food? Anyway, I wondered...can you freeze some of those foods for other meals? I tend to package up into small meals and freeze them so we don't get tired of them....are any of those foods freezable? Edit to add: Do you have a recipe for the yaksik or know where I can find a good one...it sounds amazing too!
They definitely take a lotttt of time to prepare-it’s pretty labor intensive. That’s a big reason why Kyuho’s mom prefers smaller gatherings. You can definitely freeze jeon and yaksik :) Bit the galbijjim wouldn’t really work well. We don’t have a recipe for the yaksik-Kyuho’s mom does everything by eye 😅
I dunno. 🤔😂 When I first learned how to make kimchi jeon and green onion jeon I didn’t think it was weird to call them “pancakes”. Mostly because of potato pancakes. My parents are Eastern European and I grew up in Chicago USA. Potato pancakes, especially at the holidays, especially if you go to a German Christmas market, were a staple of my childhood. And a year round favorite at Jewish delis in the city. So I thought of jeon as savory pancakes in this way. I ADORE them 👍❤️
‘Fritter’ seems to be the slightly more accurate word imo, since they’re meat, seafood, and vegetables-more savory ingredients. Pancakes to me as a Canadian is the sweet breakfast kind with maple syrup 😂🥞 Potato jeon is actually really popular in Korea as well! 😄
@@2hearts1seoul 😂😂😂 And the only fritter I’ve ever seen, tried or heard of are apple fritters in donut shops. So I only think of them as sweet! Now I’m going to google fritters. Learning something new everyday 😂👍❤️
That was the one thing I absolutely hated about living in Korea, there were no English subtitles for Netflix and almost no English subtitled showings for Korean movies in the theatres (you had to live in Seoul to be able to find anything), So we didn't watch movies like Train to Busan or Parasite until YEARS later, lol, while all our family living outside of Korea had seen everything already. It's not like we couldn't communicate ok in Korea, we lived there for 5 years, but we never ever got to a point where we understood it enough to watch movies and stuff without subtitles
Yup 🙃 I mean, I need English subs for movies/shows in ENGLISH to know what’s going on (sometimes parts are mumbled, etc.) There’s so much content on Netflix Korea where they don’t bother to put English subs. They should offer Korean, English, Chinese, and Japanese subs, imo.
Same here the temperature NYC Friday night drop 20 degree to 4 degree minus -19 wind factor Saturday morning. Sunday back to normal 30 degree and up. Thank u for your videos.
It’s difficult, but not impossible. You’ll likely have to cook for yourself the vast majority of the time, because there is hidden meat/fish in soooo many things. There are a few western style vegan restaurants in Seoul though.
@@2hearts1seoul thanks for letting me know! If you can recommend some restaurants in and around Seoul that would be most appreciated! Or even grocery stores you would recommend as sometimes I just pick up bananas and apples for a quick on the go meal! :) Take good care and cheers from Kelowna, British Columbia! :) Hugs to Bemo! xo
@@shawnykennedy4250 The only place I know of is ‘PLANT’. They have a branch in Itaewon and Hongdae-but it’s not Korean food, it’s Western food. Markets where you can buy produce are everyyyywhere, so you won’t have difficulties there :)
I remember when I tried asian pear (dont rememeber what was called exactly shop in uk) I didnt really liked it, it remineded me of long cucumber that is sold in uk, crispy watery and tasteless. Because i was so excited to try it that it made huge disspointment for me. I still have in my list to try like korean sweet popatoes, but yet cant find them to buy anywhere.
NICE video. Gives new meaning to "Clickbait" since I watched this episode while hungry. BiG mistake. But the food looks incredible. The sights. The sounds. The only thing missing was the SMELL of course. One question: does Kyuho know that ELBOWS on the table while eating is rude? Is that not considered rude in Korea? One would think since he was KATUSA while in the military, and presumably familiar with American (and Western?) customs that he would know this?
No one cares in the slightest if you eat with your elbows on the table in Korea-we do it all the time! 😄 Kyuho said pretty much everyone in the U.S cafeteria (Koreans and Americans alike) put their elbows on the table, lol.
Yup! We use spoons when we’re eating something like soup, stew, bibimbap or bokkeumbap. You can’t pick up jeon, side dishes, and galbijjim well with spoons~
Hello sister and brother I'm from India and i watch all ur videos I'm an fan of u guys and i have an question brother is Korean and ur? Sis ur korean too or another like America

Happy New Year and thanks for the yummy vid. Sidenote- I think this year’s cat calendar may be my favorite yet! 😻
South Asian dishes include those "pancakes" but we call it "cutlets" usually. Like fish cutlets, potato cutlets etc
We have a similar thing to yakshik in Malaysia which originates from China called bazhang or zongzi. It’s steamed rice in bamboo leaves. There’s savoury and sweet variations depending on which Chinese ethnicity you’re from. We eat that during the mid autumn festival.
I think you meant to say "depending on which chinese dialect group you're from"

I celebrate lunar new year with my Taiwanese boyfriend’s family 🇹🇼 we all get together, eat lots of food and play mahjong all day ☺️ first day is at the dads side of the family, second day at the moms side
haha Kyuho at the end with his subway sandwich "I need Bread" after Sarah at the start goes we are mixing it up so we dont get sick of the same thing 😂
i always watch your videos after I had a meal 😆 never with an empty stomach
The food looks good the second, third, and fourth time around. 😊 Your mother (in law )is so sweet. I’m so sorry that it has been so cold. I don’t know how I would handle weather that cold.
I mostly always, every Sunday eat my dinner while watching your video( Always gives me the push to eat something cause I have ED )This time I got full so quickly cause I was watching food while eating food 😂.
Kyuho's mum is definitely very thoughtful and caring, she always gives so many things. 💜
Sarah your 전 flipping skills are 🔥
Lots of practice 😂
Our tradition is to make sukiyaki on New Year's Day. (I'm an American living in Colorado, but born and raised in Japan.) Sukiyaki makes a great leftover meal. By the way, I recently made your Korean Braised Chicken recipe and it was delicious!!
Ha ha your face, Sarah when Kuyho asked if you wanted blood sausage stew. Mine would be the same. I know I can walk into Sobeys and get blood sausage but, nope just nope....lol. That pear looks delicious. I noticed you peeled it, is the skin not edible? Nancy 🇨🇦
Hahah yeahhhh, hard pass 😅
Yeah, that pear skin is tough and chewy even though it’s thin. Koreans never eat it :)
I wanna try 규호's mom's galbijjim! 😅 It looks like it would fill up the room with aroma. Few things beat homemade holiday leftovers when you just want to take it easy 🙂
The entire house smells like the broth when it’s simmering 😋
All that good looking food...I wish I had a Korean mom or a banchan store, etc. where I live in the U.S.! I would love to eat all that stuff!
세라님
마지막에 전 먹는 모습이 귀여워요 ㅋㅋㅋ😊
We call yuk jeon "meat jun" in Hawai'i. We absolutely love it. It's a favorite Korean dish here in the islands :)
Vlogs are awesome! Thank you for sharing your life’s journey
What a delicious food journey you took us on 😋
I made many Asian friends in uni and actually prefer celebrating Lunar New Year vs regular New Years. In fact I work regular New Years and request Lunar New Year off every year 🤣 I make traditional Italian dishes and desserts that we normally eat for our New Year's and bring it over as we have a potluck and I get to eat many delicious and different Asian foods. Many of us are immigrants to Canada and don't have family here so we celebrate it together.
Omg, I love this idea! 😍
YumO to Kyuho mum's foods!!!😛🙌🏻
규호씨가 결혼을 참 잘했네요
i would just mix jeon in rice with some 고추장 소스 ( 고추장,허니, 참기름, black pepper and sesame seed) and adds in Kimchi as well, like jeon bibimbap. it is delicious as well. as for 갈비찜, since i love spicy foods. next day i would just revamp it but adding some seasoning sauce to it used for 찌개.
recently i have added, 쌈장 1작은 스푼, 고추가루 and 참기름 and a bit of sugar to round up the flavors. it was good and deeper flavor.
세라씨 젓가락질 참 잘하네요^^명절엔 남은 나물로 비빔밥하면 좋아요~!👍
Yumzz...... it's 9:30pm here where I am and I am soooo hungry watching this! We have hot-pot on the eve of lunar new year in my family 🤭
Omg, hot pot! 😍🍲
I would have to have a second dinner if I saw this at 9:30 pm 🤣
음식도 너무 맛나보이고 부럽네요. 담주엔 두분 얼굴 피부 비결좀 공개해주세요 ㅋㅋ 저는 마스크땜에 3년동안 얼굴피부 엉망이 되서 속상한데요 ㅜ 11:00 14:05 두 분은 피부가 깨끗하고 얼굴에 잡티 1 없이 윤기가 나네요. 부럽습니다.
I am happy I already ate breakfast, because so much food! And it all looks so delicious!
It was fabulous 🤤
Get Kyuho to try Peckham pear not sure if you guys get them in Korea. I love Peckham pear the only western type of pear I eat. It is soft, sweet and juicy.
It’s actually my (Sarah) first time hearing about these 😮
@@2hearts1seoul oh 😅 then you two can give it a try 🤭
Sarah try to heat up the jeon in your toaster oven too!!!
12:43 That's 호두정과(Walnut Jeonggwa). Sarah, you should try 조청 with grilled 가래떡. This is one of my favorite Korean dessert😋.
Whenever I visit grandma's house, I gain at least 2kg. lol
My mom makes 동그랑땡 for seollal and chuseok. It is delicious but yes, too time consuming...
It was worth upgrading your iphones! Makes me so hungry😂
GRILLED 가래떡 is my weaknessss 🤤
This video has made me very nice and hungry 😅 Thanks for sharing! ❤
That means we did our job 😎 Thanks for watching! ❤️
usually for chinese new year the tradition is to have yusheng and steamboat (aka hotpot). but my family is very westernised so our personal spin is to have my mom’s homemade lasagna along with all the chinese dishes 🤣
Yooooo, that sounds like the perfect combo!! 🤯
This makes me so hungryyy❤😊
I want to make that black sticky rice, any recipe pls.. sorry I just show ur video this morning n I'd subscribed , cos it's very entertaining . Thank you
The food looks fantastic. I could only eat it EOD. I'd need fresh crunchy vegetables on the other days to prepare for the meat, rice, sides.
OMG, I would love for Kyuho's mom to cook for me...or to get some of her 설날 leftovers. YUM! I love 전 but haven't had the beef kind, which looks amazing. The only time I've had Korean pears was in a salad from the Korean restaurant. They are sooooo expensive to buy here. One day I will splurge and buy a package (I think they come in a package of 3 or maybe 4).
By the way, I wore my new Vessi shoes (I keep calling them Cloud Burst, but apparently it's Stormburst). They are soooo comfortable and even when the NY temps dipped to 2F/-16C yesterday and there was still ice and a little snow on the ground, they were just perfect.
And finally, speaking of your sponsors, Surfshark is fabulous. I still haven't changed countries using it, but I love feeling protected and the price is fabulous...especially the deal with your code.
The beef jeon is actually super easy to make! As long as you can get the proper thinly sliced beef (you just ask the butchers here for ‘yuk-jeon cut’ and they know exactly what you want 😅
Omg! So excited for your new Vessis!! Those storm bursts look incredible! They’d be perfect for snowy days and rainy season 👟
I couldn’t watch half the shows I watch without Surfshark, bless them 🥲
The price of Korean pears in the States is one of my top 10 pet peeves... 😅 so over the top!
@@2hearts1seoul Did Kyuho do a video on making 전? I can probably get the beef. I just need to learn how to make the coating.
And yes, the stormbursts are perfect for snowy/rainy weather... and the colors are beautiful. I love my lilac (I forget what they call the color, but I would call it lilac)
Hi, food looks great! When you use a VPN, does that mean you need to purchase Netflix in each country that you would like to use it in? thank you
My breakfast cereal now looks sad and boring to eat 😭
The dongtae-jeon looks so tasty!
Asian culture at its best.. Haha.. We do that too here in Ph after festives.. Enjoyyy.. This vlog completed our Sunday night again I enjoyed watching thank you😊😊😊❤️❤️
만들기가 빡세서 그렇지 먹기에는 최고인 명절음식...ㅋㅋㅋㅋ
I just had to pause the video and go and cut myself up a Korean pear. It is so refreshing and crisp. LOL
Hahah, the perfect snack for this video 😁
Maybe weird question, but it seems like most Asian people peel their fruit like apples and pears. Why is that? Are the skins tough? I was always taught to leave it on as it has the most fibre and vitamins.
I (Sarah) grew up in Canada always eating the peel on fruit (apples, grapes, pears, etc.) so how often Koreans peel their fruit was culture shock for me 😅 Kyuho said when Korea used to be really poor in the past, fruit was contaminated with high levels of pesticides-so maybe that habit stuck?
That is like literally the biggest Asian/Korean pear I've ever seen lol! We regularly get them from the Asian grocery store, and maybe it's just me and liking fruits in general, but both Asian pears and Western pears are good to me in their own way. I'll eat either any day of the week. Bartlett's are my favorite. Love the flavor of that variety.
Oh man, Subway! The only food everyone eats in literally every Korean drama known to man hahaha.
Yeah, they’re big to begin with, but the ones in the holiday gift sets are even MORE massive!
Hahahah, we just watched a mini documentary the other day about how Subway always pops up in Korean dramas 😂
Oh wow, what a spread 🤤
It was fabulous 😋
저 만주 온라인에서 팔았으면 좋겠당
, although I don't eat red meat but everything ales look so yummy, another great video to watch.
전은 냉동실 넣으면 오래 즐길수 있어요. 전은 이미 기름에 쩔은 상태기때문ㅇ니ㅣ 추가 기름없이 후라이팬에 굽는걸 추천
I really enjoy watching you guys. I like you as a couple, individuals and your content. I learn so much from it. And Freaking love B. Your cat.🥰🥰🥰
Awww, thank youuu 😽
At the 7:08 mark, I never ate gim and rice that way. But great idea Kyuho, I'm going to do that now. 😜
Not Kyuuho with the Kdrama Subway product placement 😂
다음에 전으로 아구찜처렁 콩나물에 전이랑 매콤한 소스로 찌면 정말 맛있어요 ㅎㅎ
눈이 엄청 잘 됐네요!
It is fantastic when your family send you back with a bunch of leftover food but after 2-3 days of thanksgiving leftovers, I need a sandwich, too. 😂 Love them holidays but I am glad it’s not an everyday thing
Yessss! It’s the best feeling to not have to worry about what to prepare for meals 😅
Yum....I see several things I'd love to try. Korean meals always seem like they would take so much time to prepare....all the different side dishes...a main soup...etc. But I'd love to try the jeon....I think I've seen an onion one...green onion...like a street food? Anyway, I wondered...can you freeze some of those foods for other meals? I tend to package up into small meals and freeze them so we don't get tired of them....are any of those foods freezable? Edit to add: Do you have a recipe for the yaksik or know where I can find a good one...it sounds amazing too!
They definitely take a lotttt of time to prepare-it’s pretty labor intensive. That’s a big reason why Kyuho’s mom prefers smaller gatherings.
You can definitely freeze jeon and yaksik :) Bit the galbijjim wouldn’t really work well. We don’t have a recipe for the yaksik-Kyuho’s mom does everything by eye 😅
@@2hearts1seoul thank you!
so many variety of pear in my country (Türkiye). I never saw Asian pear like you had.
this looks so lovely and delicious
🇺🇸 ENOUGH FOOD FOR YEARS!
It felt like it 😂
I dunno. 🤔😂 When I first learned how to make kimchi jeon and green onion jeon I didn’t think it was weird to call them “pancakes”. Mostly because of potato pancakes. My parents are Eastern European and I grew up in Chicago USA. Potato pancakes, especially at the holidays, especially if you go to a German Christmas market, were a staple of my childhood. And a year round favorite at Jewish delis in the city. So I thought of jeon as savory pancakes in this way. I ADORE them 👍❤️
‘Fritter’ seems to be the slightly more accurate word imo, since they’re meat, seafood, and vegetables-more savory ingredients. Pancakes to me as a Canadian is the sweet breakfast kind with maple syrup 😂🥞 Potato jeon is actually really popular in Korea as well! 😄
@@2hearts1seoul 😂😂😂 And the only fritter I’ve ever seen, tried or heard of are apple fritters in donut shops. So I only think of them as sweet! Now I’m going to google fritters. Learning something new everyday 😂👍❤️
Very nice food. My mil never cook like that😂all she does is 1 dish pot with all throw in. And she doesn’t bake either😅😅😅
once MIL watches this you are gonna get more next year!!!!
aaaah... i should have known better to eat before or while watching... now i'm hungry as hell!
Sorry! 🙈
That was the one thing I absolutely hated about living in Korea, there were no English subtitles for Netflix and almost no English subtitled showings for Korean movies in the theatres (you had to live in Seoul to be able to find anything), So we didn't watch movies like Train to Busan or Parasite until YEARS later, lol, while all our family living outside of Korea had seen everything already. It's not like we couldn't communicate ok in Korea, we lived there for 5 years, but we never ever got to a point where we understood it enough to watch movies and stuff without subtitles
Yup 🙃 I mean, I need English subs for movies/shows in ENGLISH to know what’s going on (sometimes parts are mumbled, etc.) There’s so much content on Netflix Korea where they don’t bother to put English subs. They should offer Korean, English, Chinese, and Japanese subs, imo.
Same here the temperature NYC Friday night drop 20 degree to 4 degree minus -19 wind factor Saturday morning. Sunday back to normal 30 degree and up. Thank u for your videos.
She eats jeon, he eats subway. It’s the beauty of an international marriage. 😂
😂😂
Wow! That's a TON of leftovers! Just a quick question, is it difficult for a vegetarian or vegan to visit South Korea? Thanks! :)
It’s difficult, but not impossible. You’ll likely have to cook for yourself the vast majority of the time, because there is hidden meat/fish in soooo many things. There are a few western style vegan restaurants in Seoul though.
@@2hearts1seoul thanks for letting me know! If you can recommend some restaurants in and around Seoul that would be most appreciated! Or even grocery stores you would recommend as sometimes I just pick up bananas and apples for a quick on the go meal! :) Take good care and cheers from Kelowna, British Columbia! :) Hugs to Bemo! xo
@@shawnykennedy4250 The only place I know of is ‘PLANT’. They have a branch in Itaewon and Hongdae-but it’s not Korean food, it’s Western food. Markets where you can buy produce are everyyyywhere, so you won’t have difficulties there :)
@@shawnykennedy4250 I recommend-"Monk's Butcher", "A Flower Blossom on the Rice", "Soiroum", "La Pause“, and “Vegan Bakery Haemil“
@@mjmj734 this is amazing! Thanks so much!!!
Great Meals👍
I remember when I tried asian pear (dont rememeber what was called exactly shop in uk) I didnt really liked it, it remineded me of long cucumber that is sold in uk, crispy watery and tasteless. Because i was so excited to try it that it made huge disspointment for me. I still have in my list to try like korean sweet popatoes, but yet cant find them to buy anywhere.
If they’re not in season, they can be pretty bland. But when they’re in season, wowww. SO juicy and sweet!
-17 C? Positively balmy. :P [Nova Scotia, of course, just come off a -25 C Friday & Saturday, with the wind chill down to -40 C]
Heard all about it 🥲 Stay safe over there!
so sad that i can not get any korean food here. 😔
NICE video. Gives new meaning to "Clickbait" since I watched this episode while hungry. BiG mistake. But the food looks incredible. The sights. The sounds. The only thing missing was the SMELL of course. One question: does Kyuho know that ELBOWS on the table while eating is rude? Is that not considered rude in Korea? One would think since he was KATUSA while in the military, and presumably familiar with American (and Western?) customs that he would know this?
No one cares in the slightest if you eat with your elbows on the table in Korea-we do it all the time! 😄 Kyuho said pretty much everyone in the U.S cafeteria (Koreans and Americans alike) put their elbows on the table, lol.
Thought I was watching a Subway sponsored drama at the end. 😂😂😂
Hahahaha, we wish 😂
Hi, Do u guys have a full time job?
btw i think i found something interesting. seems u guys never use spoons even when u eat rice and side dishes. am i right?
Yup! We use spoons when we’re eating something like soup, stew, bibimbap or bokkeumbap. You can’t pick up jeon, side dishes, and galbijjim well with spoons~
@@2hearts1seoul yeah right. that was jeon. i feel so stupid now lol thanks
Hello sister and brother I'm from India and i watch all ur videos I'm an fan of u guys and i have an question brother is Korean and ur? Sis ur korean too or another like America
Kyuho is Korean 🇰🇷 Sarah is Canadian 🇨🇦
Does Sarah speak Korean????
I do, but not fluently!
