Among the RUclipsrs who visited Korea, he seems to be the one who knew the most about Korea. I visited a traditional restaurant that is famous among Koreans and there are famous foods in each region. I think I chose and ate exactly the famous foods. I also enjoyed the interpretation of food.
12:55 This food is called 'Cheong po mook', and it is made by mixing mung beans and black sesame seeds into a jelly form. (Generally, 'Cheong po mook' does not contain black sesame seeds, so it is white in color. The addition of black sesame seeds is unique to this restaurant.)
@@hungrytoexplore No. I don't like it. I also don’t like Bibimbap. Ha ha.. (Generally, Cheongpo-muk is liked by Korean elders. It is an unfamiliar food to young Koreans.)
yeah, no chance for me to get it either. I think I have said before, I just resort to cooking my own things. You will love Jeonju if you ever visit. Must stay in the hanok village rather than outside too
Looks like you really went all out while in Korea when it came to good eating 😋. Bibimbap, is one of my favorite foods. I made some of that fried Korean dish with kimchi, sausages, onion, garlic, rice and gochujang paste with crunchy bits at the bottom served with chili garlic fried in olive oil for dipping. And Nori paper. Man was it good 😋
haha you know that is my style! Bibimbap is awesome, there is just so much going on. It reminds me of that Thai dish Khao Kluk Kapi in the sense that you have so many different flavours and textures with rice, just mix it up and enjoy!
I am South Korean, and my father was born and raised in what is now Jeonju Hanok Village in the 1970s. There were many buildings there that were hundreds of years old, but they were not as beautiful as they are now, and were more like old, crumbling, abandoned houses that had been destroyed during the Japanese occupation and the Korean War. So Hanok Village was one of the poorest neighborhoods in Jeonju City and was close to a slum. As South Korea's economy developed after the 1980s, the number of people who wanted to see old buildings increased, and businessmen who saw the demand bought the slums in the Hanok Village and rebuilt the Hanok, creating the current Hanok Village. In the process, my father's family was virtually kicked out for a small amount of money. Hanok Village itself has hundreds of years of history, but most of its current buildings are recently built. It is different from 'real' historical villages such as Bukchon and Andong and is more of a replica. (Because it was rebuilt in modern times, it was not registered as a UNESCO cultural heritage site.) I remember my father saying that every time Jeonju Hanok Village appeared on TV, the buildings were all fake and all the buildings that were really hundreds of years old were demolished. I leave a comment because I want people who watch the video to know the truth. There are many other villages in South Korea that retain traces of ancient times, so if you want to see the true architectural style of the Joseon Dynasty, I recommend going elsewhere.
Jeonju no Heritage Site because it was rebuilt in modern times? ....but some German Heritage Site cities were rebuilt to some extent due to the destruction of World War II

thank you, I really appreciate that comment - the views haven't done so well compared to other RUclipsrs so it is really nice to hear that from you.
Have you eaten Bibimbap?

ahhhhh okay! that is interesting! It was really delicious. do you like it?

Holy sh%t, all of this looks so beautiful. I need this in my life. Thank you for taking us to such a beautiful place. Korea....
haha it is! Jeonju is so pretty and like a post card in many places!
Bibimbap is hard to find near my home, unfortunately it's only Korean BBQ. Jeonju looks beautiful, I am sure that I will visit one day.
yeah, no chance for me to get it either. I think I have said before, I just resort to cooking my own things. You will love Jeonju if you ever visit. Must stay in the hanok village rather than outside too
Thank you for video . I watched almost of your video now . About 2 left 😂
wooooah! nearly all of them? You are a super fan haha
@@hungrytoexplore yesss done ahahahha you have to hurry upload more video
@@SinikanIsThai two a week is hard enough as it is haha
I usually mix kimchi with the bibimbap especially when the rice still steaming hot, hehe, nice hotel room seems reasonable price
oh yeah that would be a good move too! I think it was reasonable for how nice it was and the location. I had a great stay, that is for sure

Oh that is interesting! Next time I’m there I’ll take your advice, with a new video! Thank you :)

Another excellent South Korean vlog! Bravo.
Thank you! 😃
I stayed in that village and saw many things in this video that I went to...
it is cool isn't it! a really beautiful place. Did you enjoy it?
@@hungrytoexplore yes i did, food was good the sights were amazing. the traditional futon bed was hard, but hey, you can't have everything.
@@puggsincyberspace haha I made the right choice to avoid the futon then!
좋은 추억이 되셨길 바랍니다 ㅎㅎ
Yes!!! I love Korea, I will be back!
I stayed in the same place when I visited Jeonju. It was nice.
Oh that’s cool! Did you like it?
@@hungrytoexplore Yes, I wish I stayed longer but it was nice.
Be Free Joe and enjoy life🎉❤
I am trying my best Max :)
6년전 전주여행 갔을때 먹었던 비빔밥집 이네요! 다른곳보다 담백하니 맛있게 먹었던 기억이 나네요
it is great right? It is super famous now, but I think that is for a good reason
Koreans dont use futons, thats Japanese. S blanket or bamboo mat on the floor, little or no padding.
6:36 if many of them are together after you roll it, you have to pick the one from pile so it's evenly spread out.
