    Video Description :
    Korean cuisine is largely based on rice, vegetables, and meats. Traditional Korean meals are noted for the number of side dishes that accompany steam-cooked short-grain rice.
    Ingredients and dishes vary by province. Many regional dishes have become national, and dishes that were once regional have proliferated in different variations across the country

    Do they not realize that western broths are also made by boiling bones? That's basically the definition of a broth.

      Correct me if I'm wrong but boiling bones is called a stock not broth broth is made with the meat.

    • @BR-jt6ny
      @BR-jt6ny Před 7 lety +38

      Jungkook
      Actually, stock always involves bones, broth can be made from boiling meat and/or bones, but that's really beside the point. The point is that boiling bones is a really, really common practice in Western cuisine.

    OK. The thing about ice noodles, you see, Korea has this thing called SUMMER. And in SUMMER the temperature gets very very high. Cold soup noodles is designed with this in mind.........oh, the hangover stew? It works. It really does.

      David Martin agreed on the hangover soup, but having spent 4 Summers in Korea, nangmyeon (and all other iterations of coldy slimey vinegary noodles) is STILL disgusting.

      +Alex Zedd seafood is surprisingly expensive in Ireland if you don't buy it processed, breaded and frozen, for example on a menu does anyone ever notice how prawns are the most expensive thing on the menu and often the only fish offered in most chinese takeaways? But that's just one bad example I can think of...some people just aren't used to more out there fish like squid because it's not readily available and cheap.

      +wuqingyuan It's hard to really say Koreans are universally like anything. Luckily, we're not like China and have a relatively small landmass so similarities are easier to find.
      Coming from an Americanized Korean, the Koreans are typically modest and reserved when meeting someone but more eager to warm up to someone than a Japanese or Chinese person is. They also practice "Shame Culture" the hardest out of all three East Asian countries, typically shaming themselves to put others up.
      When you come down to cold self centered Koreans, you might have been spending a lot of time in Seoul where the attitude is usually more "New York-ian". There's also the problem of spoilt silver spooned youths in a period where there's a lot of "new money" Koreans.

    As a Korean, I don't like how they serve Kimchi as a separate dish. Nobody in Korea eats Kimchi by itself like that. (It's like serving pickles as a meal) Kimchi goes well with rice and meat dishes.
    Also it didn't look like vinegar or Korean mustard sauce were added on the Naengmyeon. Those two essential ingredients help enrich the actual taste of the dish, preventing it from being all bland and floury.
    I wish they served the foods more properly.

      That would opt for a more tender texture, but octopus needs to be cooked longer to remove the fishy aftertaste of it, so it usually requires 2 or more types of cooking methods to maintain the best texture. In the featured octopus dish in the video, the octopus is washed with flour, quickly boiled (or steamed), and then is introduced to the heated vegetables in the pan.

      I like watching these Facts videos, just not him. At least when everyone else has a negative reaction to something they try to spin it into a joke or have some kind of way to make the situation funny. He just sits there moping all the time like, as mar cos puts it, "...a sad sack of shit". Why does he even show up half the time if he looks like he's gonna kill himself after every video.

    Neng-myun is a dish originally from North Korea and it is usually served in summertime when the weather is hot (hence the cold broth).
    I really think several of the dishes in the video should have been taken with a bowl of rice.

    I was stationed 2 years in Korea when I was in the Military.... I'd go to the market and would be astonished on how much inedible food was on offer.. It pretty much says it all when a special occasion meal in a restaurant is Dog....

    I don't get why all of these tasters are always grossed out by seafood. They live pretty much on a big island. Personally, I love Korean food. Then again, it's probably because I'm 2nd Gen Korean. Totally own up to my bias.

    • @markplott4820

      Actually most Irish people don't eat much seafood! Even though we have really delicious seafood here, like Dublin Bay prawns are in some restaurants in America.

    I am an older Dutchman. I lived in UK for a while, my wife and me love to visit UK and Ireland and enjoy the preferable homemade dishes, pies etc. Also for nostalgic reasons.We eat at the St. James Gate Pub in Amsterdam too. But I became a Kdrama-addict 12 years ago.. Started with trying Korean Food immidiate and learned a lot through these years . Mixing our routines with Korean and sometimes Thai made me lose 35 kilos. This clip is from 2016. Nobody in Holland knew about Korean food. Now, 2021, at least kimchi has the attention on TV-cooking programs, magazines etc. I hope so for these people too ! Anyway , my choice between a Korean or an Irish/ British meal will be Korean for sure .

      lol, you men. you literally don't know what makeup looks like. When women aren't wearing bright colors and black eyeliner, you think they have aren't wearing makeup.

    • @ArthaxtaDaVince777
      @ArthaxtaDaVince777 Před 7 lety

      Idk, I don't like the idea of make up in general. Unless its like tribal face paint, which is cultural and I understand.

      @moonlily1 Před 7 lety +7

      ArthaxtaDaVince777 Yeeeahhh, well, I find that men frequently SAY they don't like it when women wear makeup, and what they really mean is obvious makeup- when they actually SEE women without women they usually say she looks sick or tired or old or ugly.

    I can see most of these comments are hate. These people aren't trying to be rude on purpose. They were told to give their honest opinion. I'm irish and honestly I want to go to korea :) The food we eat here is different from food in Korea cause we have American style food if you know what I mean. Example: Fries,Pork,chicken,Fish,Beef,and probably some food you will get in America. But at the same time us irish people are critical and they would give completely honest and sometimes brutal comments. But that doesn't mean you should hate on *All* Irish people :)

      They totally are! My Irish-American husband was stationed in Korea when he was in the Army, and he fell in love with the culture, booze, and food. When I asked him what Koreans are like, he said "the Irish of Asia" thing.

    • @lacymcduffie6855

      why

    • @Nebulafox
      @Nebulafox Před 7 lety +6

      Like the Irish being oppressed for centuries by the English, we Koreans were oppressed and enslaved by the Japanese and Chinese. The Irish have a rich culture and history, and live in a pretty cold climate most of the year. The same applies to Koreans. We are proud of our history and culture, and it gets very cold in Korea. Like the Irish, we Koreans like to stay warm with good food, good drink, and shared company telling tales that may or may not be true, but as long as it's a good one and the drink flows, that's all that matters.

    • @danaliu3295
      @danaliu3295 Před 7 lety +1

      cause of the drinking culture lol

    • @danaliu3295
      @danaliu3295 Před 7 lety +2

      although i agree with the enslaved/oppressed by japanese thing...china never really oppressed or enslave korea lol I don't know where you learned your history. korea did however pay tributes to china though (since it was the biggest, most powerful country around) but korea was still it's own sovereign nation. As for the written language...korea also adopted that of their own free will much like the japanese did.
      also ireland really isn't that cold, nor hot for that matter. UK weather is bizarrely consistent. where as korea is hella cold in winter and hella hot in summer
      all cultures like to share food and tell tales...it pretty much the only culturally universal thing that everyone does not just korea and ireland. LOL
      every country is proud of their culture and history cause ppl are nationalistic
      the only true reason that korea is known as the Irish of Asian is cause of the intense drinking culture.

    I've had all those before as well...
    ...and outside of the Kimchi and the Rice-cake dessert, they were all horrible.
    Though, the haejang-guk that I know wasn't made from cow bones, but from fish. Complete fish with the skeletons and fish heads still floating in the soup. And the smell of that was enough to clear the an entire dining hall.
