His English is so cute!!! Haha it's really good for someone that learned in middle school. No only what he did was amazing, his personality alone made what he was doing even more amazing. Something so simple had me smiling the entire time. Thanks for sharing.
Aquila935 Well, whenever you gonna eat streetfood, take a big camera with you and they will blow ur mind x) Don't expect that they do it for everyone ^^ PS: I just found out it's no honey they use. It's just sugar with syrup and stuff... damn liar.
I've seen many different versions of this, and they say the same thing while making it. But this guy is different the way he makes it. He say it with emotion and seems like he enjoys it. ^^
@@SaintsTantrum they all work for the same company. It's essentially a script they all learn when they take the job but you're right. This guy's video was the first that went viral all those years ago. I saw it on Ebaums World back in like '07. Still the best salesman in my opinion.
I know this is a per-rehearsed routine they do. I've seen many other videos of their same shtick. But this is the first one I saw but something about this guy in particular I keep coming back to this video. There's just something about this guy. He's just so charismatic and forms actual chemistry with the person filming that is just unique.
I swear to god they have a school for this, I've seen a few different vids of guys making this dessert and I have been to a stall myself in Korea and they all say the same thing! It's crazy weird lol
A lot of sales jobs involve learning scripts/pitches. Every salesperson puts their own spin on it usually, but the pitch is going to be really similar when it's the same product.
What the hell do you know about marketing? This guy is genuinely sweet, and he's got an interesting, quaint shop where he seems to be delighting tourists. Effective marketing is setting yourself apart from you're competition by providing something unique. I know this because it's what I do professionally. This guy is so innately good, he's done this unintentionally by sheer force of personality. In fact, he's so good at what he does, he just made it up the charts on Reddit.
I've tasted this when I was kid in Korea If you go to cultural tourism places, they sell them on the street as well (also malls and so on but It's better to get it on the spot) It literally melts in your mouth, because the honey is so thin and the mixtures of nuts and traditional sweet beans, sort of keep you away from being disgusted from the sugar flavor. You can eat a lottttttttt of street food in Korea at a cheap price
I have seen this kid before in a different video, isnt it so great how he does that candy and how he goes out his way to impress the buyers by putting a fantastic show with jokes..You gotta love this kid not only is he hustling but also manages to keep a smile and make people smile too!!!
When I was a kid, there was a guy who would make this once or twice a year on the streets of Chinatown NYC. I always bought a big box if I ran into him. The name in Chinese translates to "Dragon Whisker Candy"
At the end when he said "okay, my english you understandu? thank you". I thought he reminded me of someone, then I remembered he reminds me of Yoo Jaesuk when speaking english, omg their expressions are the same too xD
no shit it is a practised choreography, but it is the attitude and the smiles they keep on their faces that earns their dollars (or won to be precise). In a land where formalities and politeness is a given, impressing anyone there with their repeated smiles and motions for hours and hours is not easy and should be appreciated.
I seen plenty of videos of other guys making these candies. But this guys is absolutely the most charming one. His smile and his humour is just sweet, and makes us interrested. I watched the other guys too, but they didn´t made me rofl as this guy did. Lol his English is just OH EM GEE xD
Korean is very kind! Because we think everyone is my family. Korean even call strange person aunt! When you come to Korea, you will be able to feel warmth.
i tried this... it "somewhat" worked... But i could never get the mix of the honey correct at all! It was either to hot or to cold... And then it either falls apart or it just breaks up!
I saw this when I went on a study tour in Seoul, but instead of one person they had three staffs and they were in synched. Needless to say they convinced me and my friends to buy a lot. It was delicious...
There's little stands like this all over seoul area. They say the exact same thing in every stand. Its really entertaining! And I heard the candies taste great
Probably in heavy tourist / business centers. I know here in Florida, in our main tourist areas we have a lot of places where there are signs (at businesses / restaurants) in various different languages.
Yea, unconditional kindness is a great thing isn't it? it doesn't even matter who they are or if you know them. It just means you hope that everyone is happy.
He could be the best math teacher ever and really make it interestin for the pupils, with that understanding of math and in the way he goes around it. Or he could teach anything else as well and still sneak in the math that way.
From my limited experience with Koreans, they have all seemed extremely nice. I've never known a Korean that did not have a very strong work ethic as well as being incredibly nice.
So good to see JohnsonFamily troll at it again. I'm a restaurant owner, varsity basketball player, work at a vet office, am a news reporter, it just keeps going. Fucking hilarious.
It's pretty much the same there. I've been to both Japan and Korea and find that the older folk are all rather 'stuck-up', but the younger generation of both Japan and Korea are more happy going. You just have to find the right people. Same goes with any asian country I've been to (Hong Kong and Vietnam).
He is so funny, and cute too! I seen many videos of those honey string candies. When I go to Korea I will make sure to stop by Insadong to see those guys make these candies and try one of the candies :)
9 years later I still keep coming back to this video because this vendor makes me smile.
Same. It's been almost 13 years now and I'm STILL watching him make honey candy. I've even been to his cart. So good.
His English is so cute!!! Haha it's really good for someone that learned in middle school. No only what he did was amazing, his personality alone made what he was doing even more amazing. Something so simple had me smiling the entire time. Thanks for sharing.
Thank you
I want a hug from this man
He's too adorable
Me too!
When he said: In English Oh my god, Omg. I just laughed really loud he was so cuteee *-* lmaoo

That is charisma.
+Joel Cameron Charisma level over 9000!

He is just precious! I got this candy while in Korea and they love your reactions! Wonderful people, Koreans. Love them! I felt like a queen!
I love this semi-tutorial. And OMG...his accent is adorable. Lolling lolling lolling! Wooow!
Oisin T.
I'd buy it just for his enthusiasm!
Andre Tsang ..I tried d sweet n its really good thats what brought me here ...i wanna learn how to make it
THIS IS AMAZING
HI GOD
Pleasantly surprised to see you here, Shawn :)
Shawn Wasabi shawn
Shawn Wassabi :O
I
*This makes me happy.* I saw this back in 2013 and I always come back to watch it. Bless this guy. His charisma is *everything.*
Every person who does this kinda say the same thing but i've never seen anyone that is cute as he is
Thanh Dinh I know right! even though they are all saying almost the same lines but he is kinda different is some way. more friendly, maybe?
I think he was the original who became famous for the way he talks and the others copied him.

That's not weird either. Lots of low skill work comes with a script.
he's like the living embodiment of the doge meme. such skill. much strings. wow.
I think you mean wooooooow
That guy knows his powers of 2, he should go for computer science
Patrick John Malihan am asian, can confirm.
Actually 16,384 strings.
Can confirm, counting in powers of 2 is like half of what we do.
I know this is a per-rehearsed routine they do. I've seen many other videos of their same shtick. But this is the first one I saw but something about this guy in particular I keep coming back to this video. There's just something about this guy.

He seems to truly love doing it, and that makes all the difference
oh my gosh he's adorable!!!
You're a fan of Asian shows?
Israel Moreno Very much so ^.^
사만다 매 왓슨 cool
사만다 매 왓슨 what else do you watch?
Israel Moreno just Korean stuff
I hope he loves his job as much as he seems to.
It seems like it'd be fun to make candy in front of people.
I swear to god they have a school for this, I've seen a few different vids of guys making this dessert and I have been to a stall myself in Korea and they all say the same thing! It's crazy weird lol
I'm sure they do. But he is quite something in his delivery ;-)
***** Or he pays attention, would love to meet this guy :D
IN INGRISH OH MY GAWD
A lot of sales jobs involve learning scripts/pitches. Every salesperson puts their own spin on it usually, but the pitch is going to be really similar when it's the same product.
One of the coolest guys I've seen .
Korean middle school baby :D
How can you not love that guy? Haha
If Korea is smart enough, government should hire him as traditional department introduce-r, very impressive
aww, "give me a hand" haha he seems to be a famous honey string maker, this is the third video I've seen of him doing this
You're awesome chingu
He must be happy because he makes other people happy for a living!
Tell that to Robin Williams
KnightMD oh don't worry, i posted that two years ago. my optimism has been killed by now
time can do that to ya..
@@speakevermore Still hanging in there?
I like everything this man stands for: sweets, friendliness, teaching, and entertaining.
This guy is one hell of a showman.

he's so adorable and his english is so cute
I met the same guy during my trip to Korea last year. That was 2012. Good to know he's still at it for the past 2 years.
this dude is amazing
I've tasted this when I was kid in Korea
If you go to cultural tourism places, they sell them on the street as well (also malls and so on but It's better to get it on the spot)

we need people like him in my country cuz hes so damn positive.
I love this guy. What a gem of a human. Master of his craft.
the guy is freaking cute and awesome lol this is amazing
When I was a kid, there was a guy who would make this once or twice a year on the streets of Chinatown NYC. I always bought a big box if I ran into him. The name in Chinese translates to "Dragon Whisker Candy"
"lolling lolling lolling... UUWAAOOO"
the little sound effects he does always get me, so adorable :D
That guys is such a great entertainer
I've seen a few videos and even though it's the same script, it makes me smile each time, they've got the greatest charisma.
Oh my gosh I love this guy, so entertaining. way he talk so cute.
That's why I love english! Makes it really easy to communicate with people all over the world!
Whatever he is paid/makes, its not enough.
I dunno, if its his passion he could do a patreon :P
Also that flavor selection. PEANUT. PEEANUUUTTT.
At the end when he said "okay, my english you understandu? thank you". I thought he reminded me of someone, then I remembered he reminds me of Yoo Jaesuk when speaking english, omg their expressions are the same too xD
He is the best person on the planet.
He is adorable! This makes me smile just because he seems so happy.
He's probably really good at 2048.

Vendor has great sales skills! also i want to eat that thing.

wow. such sweet. many strings
I get them every time I go to Seoul. I feel bad for those who never had this wonderful treat!
WAIT LECKER MEANS YUMMY, I UNDERSTOOD THAT!!!
Korean is very kind!
Because we think everyone is my family.
Korean even call strange person aunt!
When you come to Korea, you will be able to feel warmth.
i tried this... it "somewhat" worked... But i could never get the mix of the honey correct at all! It was either to hot or to cold... And then it either falls apart or it just breaks up!
Looks cold back there, need that cold, son. The heat of the hand, and the zen of the soul.
This young gentleman is one incredibly charming individual. Such genuine enthusiasm, I love it!
It's a traditional candy also known as dragon beard candy to the chinese.
moochimichimoo the Chinese one is sugar based while this is honey based
I've watched a bunch of videos like this, and this one is still my favorite. This guy is the best!
MAKE HIM THE NEW ALEX FROM TARGET
I saw this when I went on a study tour in Seoul, but instead of one person they had three staffs and they were in synched. Needless to say they convinced me and my friends to buy a lot.
It was delicious...
I bet he tastes like sugar, too - he's so sweet
There's little stands like this all over seoul area. They say the exact same thing in every stand. Its really entertaining! And I heard the candies taste great
So, is it common to have signs in japanese, korean and english like that in korea?
Probably in heavy tourist / business centers. I know here in Florida, in our main tourist areas we have a lot of places where there are signs (at businesses / restaurants) in various different languages.
Man this guy is awesome, I really hope he finds this video so it makes him feel happy.
Yeah, cool candy but can I please keep the guy? So adorable
i'm impressed by how well he knows his 2^n. and he even was rhyming in the middle of his presentation lol
This guy is the awesomest guy ever.
Yea, unconditional kindness is a great thing isn't it? it doesn't even matter who they are or if you know them. It just means you hope that everyone is happy.
lmao 2048 has prepared me for this moment
Definitively this guy has a unique charm, i think he could be a really good friend, and damn!! I wanna try those sweets!!
kyaaaaaaa!! hes so cute!!!!
He could be the best math teacher ever and really make it interestin for the pupils, with that understanding of math and in the way he goes around it.
Or he could teach anything else as well and still sneak in the math that way.
Lol he's so entertaining
I come back here at least twice a year to enjoy this before bed. "Very very.... YUH MEEEE!"
He probably speaks English very well, but speaks it in this manner in order to add more personality and fun to the making of this dessert.
This guy should be a TV star! I was totally entertained.
this korean guy is amazing!! 이름 행복한 사람은 무엇입니까? :D
if i legit met this guy selling this stuff on the streets, id give him 20 just for his great enthusiasm and humor!! (:
What a nice guy!
Dude was it as good as it looks? The presentation, not the dessert. This guy changed my life
"My englisheh understandeh?"
From my limited experience with Koreans, they have all seemed extremely nice. I've never known a Korean that did not have a very strong work ethic as well as being incredibly nice.
HE IS AWEWOSME
he is very inspiring. does his job happily, well delivered show, reach to customer and take attention. very good.
OMG!! I love him♥
"Not powder. Delicious powder." I love this guy, so happy and cheerful! :D
Awwwww he is sooooo cute : )
This oppa is just so adorable !!!!!
Holy shit the way he talks...
So good to see JohnsonFamily troll at it again. I'm a restaurant owner, varsity basketball player, work at a vet office, am a news reporter, it just keeps going. Fucking hilarious.
He is hilarious lol.
It's pretty much the same there. I've been to both Japan and Korea and find that the older folk are all rather 'stuck-up', but the younger generation of both Japan and Korea are more happy going. You just have to find the right people.
Same goes with any asian country I've been to (Hong Kong and Vietnam).
holy shit he said "oh my god" right after I thought it
This video made my day. I wish this guy the best of luck.
Amazing.
He is so adorable!!
Weeeoooow.
He is so funny, and cute too! I seen many videos of those honey string candies. When I go to Korea I will make sure to stop by Insadong to see those guys make these candies and try one of the candies :)
Na ni shimasho-ka?
why cant all workers on any stores/restaurants that i come accross to have the same personality as this dude? I WOULD BE SO HAPPY.
