Korean Street Food Wonderfulness!
Filed underFood and Life
Wed, Jul 1 2009 05:44 AM
Yes, we're in the habit of redoing old movies. Call it nostalgia, call it laziness: frankly, we just look at our old movies and cringe. So we updated our old Street Food video to be a bit more comprehensive. Also, look at how we've changed in a year! Now you can watch us order Korean street food without merely grunting and pointing our fingers! We'll show you how to order, what to order, and how much it costs. If you're in Bucheon as well, make sure you go to the lady between Hyundai Department Store and The Mall. Her food is, hands down, the best we've had in Bucheon. So click on the picture above for our Korean Street Food video, or view it in different formats in the sidebar.
A bit of an apology as well: we haven't posted in nearly a month because we were actually making videos every week. Remember the Battle for Bucheon at Rhythm and Booze (if not, look down three posts). Every week we've been judging the contests, but - what's more relevant - we've also been making videos of every battle. We'll post the whole collection as soon as we're done with the finals video. As well, we spent a week at a Gepik workshop, either giving speeches about classroom management or helping with other things. Thanks to those of you who have contacted us from the workshop. Finally, we did a podcast over at SeoulPodcast.com, so you can hear us talk about Korea, teaching, Western Food, what's in our fridge, and other stuff from us that you wouldn't hear otherwise.

Korean Karaoke Revisited

Sure, we made a post about Korean Karaoke a while ago, but - let's face it - the video kinda sucked. We didn't really give instructions, the video editing was kinda lame, and the singing wasn't up to snuff. So this time we made a new video, complete with all new songs, new singers, a new title, and a fresh dose of eatyourkimchi quirkiness. This time we'll explain the huge remote (wow!) and show you more about what to expect. As well, Simon quite possibly gives the performance of a lifetime. You won't want to miss it! So click on the picture above for our Korean Karaoke Explodomania! Or click on the sidebar for other formats.
Korea is Still Awesome

As of next week, we will have been in Korea for one year! Hooray! We signed on for another year, so eatyourkimchi is still going to be around as well! Anyhow, we decided to make a video of different cool things in Korea. Why? Because when we first came here, everything seemed awesome and amazing. We've been here for a year, and it is still awesome and amazing, and we've got the video clips to prove it.
Korea, you never fail to amaze us. Keep up the good work and we'll keep putting up the videos. Speaking of which, click on the picture above to see Why Korea is Still Awesome, or click on the sidebar for different formats.

Rhythm and Booze's Battle for Bucheon

Over the next six Saturday nights, Bucheon's best foreigner bar, Rhythm and Booze, will host the Battle for Bucheon. It's a Battle of the Bands contest featuring eight bands, all battling for 1,500,000 won. The first four nights will have bands competing against each other to get into the final bracket; the last Saturday will be the final showdown. We here at eatyourkimchi don't really do a lot of advertising for public events, but we have a special interest in this event, because we love Rhythm and Booze and WE ARE ALSO GOING TO BE THE JUDGES! That's right: every Saturday night you'll see us there at Rhythm and Booze. First five hundred people who ask will get free high-fives. The next five hundred will get high-twos. So get there ASAP and line up early, because you don't want to miss it! We made a promo video for the event, which includes the dates, lineups, and proper directions on how to get there via either bus or subway. These directions are far more useful than our last directions, if you can remember that far back. Anyhow, click on the picture above to see our promo video for Battle for Bucheon, or check out the sidebar for other video formats.
If you're interested in coming, then here are the times:
May 23rd: 9:30 PM

Korean Toothbrushing

How good is your dental hygiene? Carry floss with you in case of emergencies? Have a small bottle of mouthwash in your dashboard? If your friends think you are obsessive with the way you clean your teeth, then maybe you should move to Korea, where brushing your teeth isn't just a matter of hygiene, it's a lifestyle. Martina recorded the great extent to which her school cares about the state of its teeth. You'll be surprised.

Spudgy's New Mohawk

We were surprised our first summer here when we saw Korean dogs with really cool haircuts and bright hair dye. We've seen lots of dogs in Canada, but never have we seen any dogs as fashionable as a Korean dog. We knew that we'd have to make Spudgy feel at home here, and, luckily, with Spudgy we had the perfect canvas. His hair is white, and by the end of the winter it was excessively long. We can cut and style it as we wish! What's Spudgy's new dew look like? Click on the picture above to see Spudgy's New Mohawk, or check in the sidebar for different formats. As well, for those of you who view us on your iPod, we're exporting our videos in a new format that should be iPod compatible. Let us know if it works!
