Korean Street Food Wonderfulness!

Filed as: Korean Food // Responses: 22

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.

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.

    Did you know that soondae also has one interesting ingredient? It's blood…usually pig's blood. Other than the japchae noodles, rice and spices, the sausage is primarily made of blood.

    • sylee

      ewwww….
      … but I STILL LIKE SOONDAE NO MATTER WHAT!!! ha!
      and i also quite liked …the lungs… ><

      • http://www.eatyourkimchi.com Eatyourkimchi

        Yeah, we still love Soondae as well. The liver's better than the lungs, though :D

  • Yazzy~

    don't ya guys gain much weight ? lol xD !

  • Meeghan

    Is there ANY Korean food that doesn't have pepper paste? LOL
    I want to become a Translator or an English teacher in Korea and I can't stand spicy food. But the food looks SO good and I want to try it, but knowing my taste buds… XD lol If I eat too many Middlesworth BBQ chips my nose runs, and that's pretty sad. (Only people from Pennsylvania in the US will understand this)
    But anyways, The food looks great but I think I'd be a little afraid to try it because of the spiciness. There is NO such thing as a Korean restaurant in PA .
    How do you stand the spiciness? You probably like spicy things though lol I've never had a variety of foods. We don't eat liver or lungs or anything like that. And I don't know if I would like that either XD lol
    Thanks for the videos though!! I'm very amazed with what you do. ^^

  • Camille

    It'll be amazing to have that in Quebec! We don't even have the guys in the street who sells hot-dog… In summer we have ice-cream but that's it ._.'

  • clinique

    what is the background music?

  • jenny

    fyi it's cow or pig blood inside the 순대, not meat :)
    a lot of foreigners mistake it for meat lolz

  • Nanasse Yuya Kajian

    I am surprised that you did not talk about suju ! (not the boyband of course! ;) )
    Thanks for this video, it is really well described ♥
    I have to practice how to say that now!

    Oh. I love you for using Epik High song for the ending.

  • Aqua Fina

    Soondae contains pig blood…which you probably didn’t know? It’s still good, though. Sounds gross to people who have never eaten it, but to Koreans, it’s a common, delicious dish. =) You wouldn’t even know it’s blood if no one told you, just let your taste buds speak for themselves before you let your brain rule out things. That’s the mindset to use when approaching “exotic” and ethnic foods. Good food for the win! ^^v

    First, ‘twigum’ is actually pronounced ‘twigim’, but it does sound very similar–twigum, I mean. 
    Also, i think there are intestines in soondae? 
    Finally, about the cow’s blood. Many people actually eat it separately-my dad once mentioned that it was gelatinous. Creepy!
