Jessica should be the next ambassador. She's so excited to introduce Philippine culture and cuisine to her fellow Koreans, a Filipino by heart, indeed. Don't you guys agree??
Is Jessica half Filipino
@@-chenlanying5818 i think not. But she lived in the Philippines for a couple of years when she was young.
@@-chenlanying5818 Pure Korean mixed with Filipino culture.
She is a pure blood Korean but a Filipino in heartđ”đ
She used Filipino culture for her content
thank you jessica for doing this. iâm a singaporean living in australia. back in singapore i grew up with a filipino maid (i call her auntie) whom i still treat as my second mother to this day, even though sheâs gone back to the philippines.
now iâm a big foodie, so itâs really hard to choose my favourites e.g. japanese, chinese, vietnamese, thai, western, italian etc. but if i had to choose my ULTIMATE top favourite, without hesitation, iâd say filipino food hands down. thatâs how much of an impact my dear auntie had on me.
a bit of background: when i was younger i had meals together with auntie almost everyday and she taught me to eat with my hands. she cooked me all sorts of filipino delicacies - THE most delicious food on earth. pinakbet, sinigang, tortang talong (eggplant omelette), rellenong bangus (grilled milkfish stuffed with onion, tomatoes), dinak dakan, ginisang munggo, adobo, ensaladang talong (roasted eggplant salad), even simple tomato with calamansi and soy sauce, i would drool over.. she introduced me to my favourite desserts turon, biko (sticky glutinous rice), suman malagkit (glutinous rice wrapped in banana leaf) and sweet macaroni salad. i am not exaggerating when i say this: i can eat these dishes every single day and not get tired of them. it was a blessing auntie gave me so i could experience the wonders of filipino cuisine in my home in singapore. the one common theme in her cooking is âheartwarmingâ. once i take the first bite, itâs not just umami but pure homeliness. filipino food will always be my comfort food.
but beyond that, she taught me kindness, generosity, unconditional love, joy, laughter, all that the people of the philippines embrace. she introduced me to her friends, the struggles they face as maids overseas living far away from their families and young children - people they are fighting and working hard everyday to earn a living for.
these memories were my childhood, she was my childhood; and i think of her so dearly to this day. for this reason, filipinos have a special place in my heart. i want to serve the filipino community one day and give back to them, exactly how auntie treated me and loved me.
jessica, never stop what youâre doing đ„č everyone needs to know how delicious filipino food is and how wonderful their culture is.. otherwise theyâre missing out so much. iâm here cheering you on!! đđ§Ąđ
WOW! Even your appreciation of your auntie is heartwarming. I hope you reunite with her.
I love reading your comment.

AAAAW THIS IS SO SWEET!!!
I, as a Korean, feel connected to Filipino bros watching this. I've met some Filipino dudes in here Korea. They're all kind, enthusiastic and even artistic.
Hi how are you. My name is nhoy frome philippine. You like i cooking you pilipino food
I didn't know Filipino has taste for arts. They're only known as hardworking people, who wouldn't really expect them to enjoy artistic endeavor.
They're surprisingly more openminded and outgoing than youngsters when it comes to food. I would love to see them taste pochero too. Seeing this video has made me know my culture's food more. Like how we typically use fruits in our dishes like bananas, papayas and tamarind. In a way it's like i accidently discovered filipino food's identity through koreans
Older people usually have a broader palate as they have tasted different kinds of food during their lifetime.
@@ivanvillarruz8412 that's not necessarily true for Koreans. Alot of older people including my grandparents grew up on PURELY korean food, and they have a strong korean palette. Some don't even eat fast food/ don't count it as "real" food. I was born and raised on an island thats a US Territory but heavily influenced by Asia. My grandma has lived here for about 15 years too, but she still can't eat western or non korean Asian food that well because she can't stomach it.
Pochero ang luto ni misis kanina. Sarap.
I think it's because these particular home-cooked Filipino foods share some similarities to 'traditional' or home-cooked korean foods. I realized that 'older' generations tend to like home-cooked food more than other kinds of food, like my father who always prefer to eat traditional/home-cooked Filipino dishes instead of other foreign food. As soon as I saw the thumbnail of this video, I thought that these people in the video might actually like these Filipino foods compared to younger people.
Edit: Especially since their home-cooked food goes with rice, the same with ours, so that's another thing. It's like they're just eating a different kind of 'ulam' or viand.
Ofc old peepz has more sense than people nowadays
The man who wants to pair everything with something spicy is such a mood đ
he canât help it! Hahaha
Give him bicol express, laing and sizzling sisig!
It's a shame, he might've liked the sinigang more if it had a lot of chili đ that's how I like it. I also add tomatoes to it.
@@makapc2220 yup, I agree with you đ
@@adrieldavidhalos2169
You can put 1 or 2 green chilis in sinigang if you want it to be hot.
I love how they recommend which dishes would go with alcohol and Kim chi. Plus, I was touched when the grandparents sensed similarities in Filipino food to Korean food.
Ooh I love how she taught them how Filipinos eat them with rice and that there are different varieties. I think that is an important factor especially if you're trying out food from different cultures. You will appreciate the food more.
I know this doesnât have anything to do in particular with the video, but I couldnât stop being amazed by how good these eldery look! They all look at least 10 years younger of what they actually are! Really amazing. đ«Ł
I'm Japanese-Filipina and this reminds me of the story when my father (a filipino-american in the US air force) cooked filipino food for my mom (a japanese immigrant) on their first date. My mom loved the food and was so impressed by it that she started learning how to cook filipino food. When they got engaged, my parents went to Japan to meet my moms extended family and my dad cooked filipino food for my grandparents. They had the same reactions as the Korean grandparents in this video and it warms my heart to see them enjoy filipino foods that I grew up eating!
so u r a filipina-american-japanese
Such a lovely story. I love japanese food, too, but filipino is my home food. Youâre lucky to have both!
damn you're 3 races at once
èŻăăŁăâ€đ
No because American isnât a race. What they meant was that their father was an American citizen, making him âFilipino Americanâ
The way Jessica picked dishes that she knows they will love you can see that she knows filipino food well. This is the first koreans try na hindi mukhang pilit imo.
As a Filipino, this incredible video made me smile. Seeing the happy faces and their inquisitiveness about our local and native dishes melt my heart. So glad they made this video. đ€
Proud Filipino here â€ïžâ€ïž,i guess they don't know the called "Tinola" can serve if you are Filipino leader or something with high reputation in government during Spaniard era here in the Philippines, so it means that "Tinola is not just simple dish, it is our part of history and culture for many Filipinos â€ïž" thanks for introducing Filipino delicacy to Koreans.
I really like how Jessica introduced Filipino foods to korean grandparentsđđđ
i agreed.... the way she introduced our food to them is always presentable and shes always proudđâ€ïž thank u!!!! ate
â°
@@nixablaza5482 is Jessica half Filipino
@@-chenlanying5818 I think she just lived in the Philippines before but she's pure Korean.
@@-chenlanying5818 thanks for the info. i just started watching her not to long ago
I love how they reacted, it was really descriptive and you see how much they are more receptive to different tastes and flavorsđ
đđđđŻ
and they did not sound like those pinoy baiting foreigners who assume Filipinos who love watching foreigners eating Adobo or Sisig have very low IQ.
I love how you explain to them how these different dishes are eaten, what theyâre made of, the conversations are so interesting because I get to learn about Korean food culture too! I love this video! I wonder, have you tried Bicol Express? đ„čđ«¶đ»
I love Koreans & Japanese they are so respectful anything they do not like it is in most respectable way â€Salamat for showcasing pinoy pagakain/food sister đ€đâŁïž
How refreshing. No exaggerated reactions, just very zen-like and appreciative of the culture. ^_^ Filipinos love Korean food. There are Korean food stalls everywhere in the Philippines, not just Kbbq either, and not only in the cities.
i wish there were more filipino restaurants here in korea!
@@daeseongkim93 we love K-culture so much, we have Korean convenience stores even in the provinces. I translate K-dramas for a living. Haha. I don't know how much we can offer in term of cuisine and culture, but adobo, karekare, siopao, maybe those would win Korean hearts.
@@mavicityrelayson2924 Just add extra Spice in them I bet you they would love it more
I love how they take a mouthful of the foods first before giving their opinions unlike some taste test videos and I am glad that they like what they've tasted. Thank you for this video, Jessica!
They're so polite! Even the way they say the things they don't like much about the dish sounds very gentle. đâ€
Hi there jessica im filipinođ”đ but working overseas here in kingdom of bahrainđ§đ.thank ypu so much for introducing our filipino foods to your seniors but NOT looking seniors i swear!đ
Send my warmest HI to them,thank u..much love ,CHUCHIâ€
Mas masarap pa panoorin yung mga matatanda mag try ng stuff kesa sa mga maaarteng nakikita mo pag pina patry ng food. And they are very honest with their opinions and taste sa food which reminded me of my grandmother who recently passed away. Miss you mommy! đđ
aw condolence po
Hahaha oo tama ka jan
You mean some Americans?đmeron pa may lahing pinay pero 1st time makakain ng pagkaing pinoy tapos ang OVERACTING niya. Kakairita.
@@vsdumplingisnini9774 true. kakainis yung mga americans na nag-iinarte.
Condolence po
6:32 To answer it, YES. Normally, anything that has a taste to counterfeit the bitter taste of alcohol is a good combination while drinking alcohol. But soup base foods are not often served on pubs or bars. You'll only see it among people drinking in their houses.
The word "Pulutan" means pick and eat. So basically, liquids are not fit, but solid dry food like Chicharon Bulaklak, Sisig or Crispy Pata.
arat na! shot puno!
It's interesting that we even saw the difference in the drinking culture of koreans and filipinos. Filipinos partner alcohol with dry foods whereas koreans like it with saucy/soup dishes (with the exception of fried chicken and pork)
@@reignjbg6437 Coz normally Filipino dishes best fit with rice. Alcohol with rice was kinda weird in a formal drinking session đ
Papaitan is soup as pulutan with drinking alcohol.
@@elgienbarera4027 Yeah I loved it too
Im thankful that I watched that video clip of Korean kids trying Filipino Bday foods and now Im binge watching this Korean Ate series.
So wholesome.đ© making me miss my lola
the grandma who said that kangkong tastes like sweet potato sprouts is spot on since kumakain din naman tayo ng talbos ng kamote and medyo similar nga sila
yung lolo na naka skyblue ang gana kumain ang cute sulit byahe niya since sabi niya from outside seoul pa siya haha
I love that they incorporate their culture like when they say that it would be nice to add kimchi or it somewhat tastes like this or so. They are so adorable.
It made me so proud and happy that koreans liked our filipino dish.. i love korean foods so much too.
The grandma on the left side is so kind.. her reactions look genuineâ€ïž
I was kind of surprised. I thought Korean elders will find Filipino food wierd. Especially sinigang. But I'm glad they liked it. And the guests are so nice and cute đ
One thing I noticed though, regardless of their age, Koreans really has undeniably good skin. These seniors don't look their age and the host is so pretty! đ«¶
Thank you, Jessica for featuring a Filipino culture. Food is also a part of our culture and we're so happy to see how you share our culture to yours.
Wish you all the best!
it's the coldness there that contributes to their great skin, methinks.
I'm from Philippines, thank you Miss Jessica for introducing Philippine Culture and Cuisine. â€ïžâ€ïž God bless
Loved this. I'm glad that those were the dishes picked. More authentic then more spanish influenced dishes. Well done.
i agree with Okra and gochugang... thank you for introducing Filipino food to Koreans. love their reactionsđ€đ
My mom actually does that. She buys okra and dips it in ssamjang. It's good, I've tried it.
The ahjussi in mint green shirt was so enthusiastic about everything - everyone was but him especially. Heâs perfect to star in a show. I enjoyed this video a lot! Thanks for sharing Filipino culture to Koreans đ€
Is he a cook or something.... He tells things in a more technical manner
Is it just me, it's my first time here in your channel but I like your English accent. Just wow! I got a chance to study in an international university and got a lot of Korean friends who speaks English but yours is honestly commendable đ
They clearly know how to cook and eat. They're open for new flavors which makes them a great candidate for food taste test. I've enjoyed the episode! Looking forward for more contents like these. Much love from the Philippines.
They're so cute, especially the grandpa in mint long sleeves! He came all the way from Ilsan because He really wanted to join the showđđ» Thank you Jessica for introducing this Filipino food to them!đ
This is my first time watching this and I must say the "Korean Ate" is a nice play of words. Because it literally translates to "Korean Sister" and can be also interpreted as "Korean Ate(eat)" because the series is all about food. I like it.
Wow i like what you saidđđ
Same thinking hahaha witty name
2 things that I find uniquely adorable!!
1.) Trying sinigang with chopsticks
2.) Trying sinigang with drinks and I instantly thought of Soju đđđđ
I love how you explained the Filipino dishes to the seniors. And they're so lovableđ
Iâm actually surprise with the reactions of these beautiful Korean elders, as I work here in Korea, I know how Korean elders not that open in trying other dishes. The fact that they take pride with their own food and how picky they are so it is surprising to see good reactions in our own Filipino foods. Thumbs up đ
These Korean Grandparents are good at giving commentary. More of this pleaseeee~
awww thank you so mush for the supports of the philipines†we filipino appreciate it very much đ
Ilove it. They are very open minded and they like our food. đ”đ
Let them try bulalo, kare-kare, adobo, lumpia, sisig, chopsuey next time too ate đ... Looking forward to these series
Do you want them to die đ?
I feel Jessica's happiness and excitement whenever she introduces our culture to Korean people. Good job Jessica!đ nakakaproud ka.đ
This was very refreshing to watch. I like your choice in foods and that you didnât serve things people would typically know the Philippines for like pancit and chicken adobo.
She's so kind, humble, respectful and very passionate of what she's doing. Thank you Jessica for making this blog. Continue being an inspiration and loving Filipino culture.
GOD bless you always âĄ
Wow thanks for introducing and explaining to them. Yeah most Filipino foods are not spicy compared to our other South East Asian neighbors. My theory is got to do with our location and remote geography. Our food are the island type and simple. And because of our location exchanging of Spices were not easy during the ancient times. Unlike Thai Malay Indo Vietnam where they are near each other and can easily Trade Spices during the early days.
Thank you for enjoying our Filipino dishes. Furthermore, those are frequently prepared for lunch and dinner by a Filipino moms/grandmothers. I love how the Korean elder reacted so adorable.â€
I love how they take a decent sized spoonful when tasting and not a small nibble like most would lol
Vote Jessica for PH ambassador. She's everywhere to promote PH food and culture. â€ïž
Its really refreshing to watch elderly tried foreign foods. Thier reactions are genuine đ„°
The host is so well inform about the food. Its like Filipino is introducing the food to koreans.
Her english is so good i just notice most of koreans who speak in english has their south east asian accent but her accent was like a news reporter here in philippines lol i like her
Some filipinos cant really have tinola or sinigang without adding fish sauce so we normally have it on a small sauce plate. I would suggest having that on hand as well but not sure if they would find it too pungent. I love that you presented food in a way thats relatable to Koreans and actually fit elderly taste preference well. Well done.
It's heartwarming to see the elders enjoying Filipino dishes. There's more in the Philippine dishes that they should see and eat! I wish to see more of this content. Hwaiting!
Thank you for representing the Philippines.
Sarap sa feeling na naaappreciate Ng iba lahi Ang food natinđ
Im glad they liked all of itđ„°
good grief, its a treat to have the sunbae (korean ate series) and the jessica vlog at almost the same time, i follow every vlog or series jessica is in and no disappointment so far, i love how jess describe each food to the korean grandparents and the feedback is so honest...hope there will be more of these in your content â€đ€
Next time let them try lechon,sisig,pansit,kare kare
I genuinely enjoyed this because the reactions of both groups are so adorable! Jessica did a great job describing and comparing the dishes with something they are familiar with from the Korean food culture. I hope to see more of this series.
You just introduced the 4 most common veggie / soup dishes Filipinos eat. My favorite is the tinola and monggo (mine is made with more diced pork, garlic and is soupier) I love this content. Subscribed!
Itâs good youâre making them try the Filipino comfort food. But for tinola, itâs way better when you mix a bit of either calamansi or lemon to the soup to make it taste a lot better. But Iâm happy theyâre all enjoying the food. So proud of the Filipino (my) Legacy. đđđ«¶đ«¶đ„°đ„°đđâ€ïžâđ„â€ïžâđ„
I really love their Reactions so much. .
I love how they appreciate monggo âșïž Knowing it's just a simple recipe. â€ïž
So glad that they like the food! All 4 of those are included in my top 20 foods for main meal. âșïž
These don't only suit seniors' palates! I love monggo, sinigang na hipon, and tinola with lots of malunggay :)
the í ëšžë and í ìëČì§ë€ are so endearing! loved how they respectfully tried the food and eventually liked some of it :))
this was so fun to watch and i love how Ms. Jessica really researched about the ingredients in order to explain it very well to the seniors. it's so refreshing to see a reaction video that is professionally made and educational unlike other youtubers who make filipino content for pinoy baiting. looking forward to more videos like this in the future! :)
glad that they liked it! đ„° Sinigang & Tinola is better with patis mixed with chili tho!
wow â€ïžso proud of you introducing our pilipino delicacy to your family . đ„°watching you from AlasCali Vlog .lynne Alaska USA đ„°đ„°đ„°
The fact that she used papaya fruit and not sayote is a great move. Thatâs legit tinola. But it couldve been a different experience if she added lemon grass and used native chicken. And please tell me all of these were seasoned with knorr broth cubes HAHAHA. The sinigang looked sarap. The munggo could have had more sabaw and more flavor like chicharon. But overall, with how the seniors reacted and described each dish, I know Jessica nailed the flavors and the cooking. Thank you Jessica! đ
tinola is with papaya? its sayote that i know
Such an adorable interaction Cutiee Lolo's and Lola's đ I Love how Jessica explained the dishes and how seniors evaluate each food after tasting it and (find it similar to) and (shared ideas to partner it) with some Korean dishes †I don't eat okra but maybe I should try what Lolo suggested to eat it raw with gochujang đ
I think it would taste better if you steam the okra firstđ
@@yuukikiryuu2291 yup because some okra has hairy like tiny thorn
Omg! I love this! Iâm so glad they like them! Monggo is one of my fave dish! Itâs underrated i think lol canât wait to see more! đđŒđ„°
I love their reactions!
We usually adjust our soup based dishes (???) with condiments thatâs why some, if not most, of them are bland so it can suit our taste after mixing with some condiments. And the monggo is usually paired with fried food thatâs why it doesnât taste much
we don't eat monggo with fried food in my home :) we just mix them with meat and vegetables lolll
Yes with fried gg. But I can eat it even with just the soup. It will always be my comfort food after a long and tiring work week! đ€€
enjoyed watching their honest reactions. đ good choice on picking the veggie dishes for the seniors Jessica! waiting for next video in the series! đ
It's so cute seeing their reactions after they take a bite of the food.
I love the way they eat đ. They appreciate food đ Love it!
Finally!! KOREAN ATE IS BACK!!!.
LOVE YOU JESSICA LEE!đ
Jessica perfectly chose the first 4 dishes to introduce to korean seniors. đ„°
I love them so much đđ Yes it may sound weird to call them adorable but they are. I love how they are open minded and honest with their first impressions.
I really love how positive they are with our foods. Lolos and lolas are the best talaga.
I love having tinola and kimchi together too! Plain tinola just doesn't sit right with me as it can also comes out as greasy but with kimchi, it gives extra flavor!
You can put Chili on Tinola to have a bit of a kicking taste.
I use fish sauce to enhance the flavor same with sinigang
i also prefer it with fish sauce with chili..yum yum!
I eat it with fish bagoong that has calamansi to give me that fishy salty and sour taste. If thereâs none then I get Patis or fish sauce with calamansi as an alternative. Then dip the chicken or just put it on the soup.
@@user-cx3xu1nu9x thatâs good. Tinola is actually ny favorite and thereâs a variety where they use coconut milk. Itâs my most favorite tinola that my dad always cooks for me on my birthday.
Please have them try adobo, bulalo, dynamite, lumpia or other filipino dishes and traditional dessert like puto, suman, biko, etc. I'm sure they'll love it đ„° TIA đđ»
and bicol express too..
i love them so muchđ„șâ„ïž big respect to themâ„ïž
Love this video đ thank you for loving the Philippines đ
Glad you enjoyed it!
Aaaaah I really love your appreciation for our Filipino food so overwhelmingly thank you for your appreciation for our delicious food thank you so much Jessica Lee for introducing Filipino food to them I really love how you all impressed and appreciated our foodđđ€đđđ”đđ”đ
Love watching uhmmas and appas trying Pinoy food. Honestly, the elder folks in Korea are kind and welcoming even to foreign strangers. They are very warm even when they struggle to help me find my way when I got lost in the streets of Seoul with my friends.
Iâm so fascinated to see tamarind referred to as a vegetable as to me it is a fruit
I love how she explains everything about the dishes, but there's one more thing about "monggo"
It is usually made every friday đ
I also don't know why, but my parents always ask if it's friday before cooking monggo
I like Korean seniors reaction to every Filipino dishes they've tried...they know healthy foods as well...kudos JL â€ïž
their reactions are really cute! i love how you introduced Filipino dishes to Korean Grandparents! new sub Jessica! Can't wait to see more from you! love from the Philippines!
You did so good with this video. A video that actually instructs them the right way on how to eat each dish correctly. Love your energy too! Keep it up!
Ok I now have respect to the entire Korean country after this video.
Sheesh, I'm drooling to these Filipino dishes. đ€€They're all my favorites. đ
All of these grandparents are just gorgeous. They're genuinely intrigued and excited to try the food đ€đ„°
Seeing them eat those vegetables makes me crave and persuade myself to finally eat veggies đ and gosh i remember Munggo Friday đ
Very nice. Not the usual foods that gets served for taste tests like lechon, sisig, lechon kawali... Very happy with their honest and gracious reaction to our food. Personally i love laing and hope to see foreigners react to it.
