There is something about watching someone who master their craft work that brings some kind of joy to my soul.
You couldn't have said it better. Watching him and listening... I mean reading his words (since I know not a lick of Korean) made me smile and laugh. It brought joy to my soul as well.

I think someone whom uses their hands to create an object they are proud. Is an experience we all need to feel.

I am taking ceramics in college.
Korean pottery and ceramics is so rich in culture. One of the best in the world but it isn’t as well known as it should be. Thank you for sharing a glimpse into the beauty of art in Korea! Just so stunning.
This recent trilogy of Eater videos shot in South Korea has been superb! 👍
Yes yes agreed!!! Please more Korean more Korea more Korea!!! Please and thank you
Thanks alot for your appreciation.
Ceramics are very essential to Korean cuisine historically as storing and fermenting plays a large part of the food.
Yes yes we all watched the Ongi video too
Idk what Ongi is, but my great uncle was a potter from Gwangju

@@ScipioWasHere A onggi is a pot where you ferment things in... Did you really watch the video? XP

Gotta appreciate the dedication, patience, and hard work it takes to create these ceramics
mad respect
Korea has beautiful pottery culture. I wish more people knew how beautiful Korean culture is since its ancient dynasties like Goguryeo, Baekje, and Silla. Most people think Korea was poor, but that is not true. Its history is 5000 years old and had very rich culture. It was famous for its golden jewelry, delicate silk, exquisite potteries., etc.
@@lmlmlmz Not all Asian culture is Chinese.
@@lmlmlmz First of all, Koreans used "Chinese written character/letters" until Korea's King Sejong invented our Korean written language "Hangul", but Koreans NEVER spoke Chinese. Korea was NEVER a part of China. Second, according to your logic, then are you a part of the America or Europe because the world uses a lot of European and American technology and invention? Are you Roman since we use roman numerals? Or since you are typing in English, are you all descendants of Phoenicians? We might as well say we are all African?
@@lmlmlmz isn’t the USA England? Pretty sure since people in the USA use English.
@@epaqu its not even the right comparison. Americans and British speak the same English language, but Koreans never spoke Chinese in their history. The same for Chinese, they don’t speak Korean. Koreans only borrowed characters in the past. Then, they decided to invent the writing system, Hangul.
@@lmlmlmz They borrowed Chinese characters only. Koreans never spoke Chinese, period. Koreans invented their own writing system, Hangul. I think that’s very creative. Your claim sounds like Japanese are Chinese cuz they still use Chinese characters. Lol
My thanks to the authors of this film for showing artisans' work, it's breathetaking! I love ceramics and pottery
Earth nation ceramic, Matthew Kelly pottery, Ingleton pottery, Matte Horne pottery, Old forge creations, Justins makery, Johnthepotter, Ceramic Jim are great youtube channels on this topic.
Korean ceramics are my favorite aesthetics and designs
I can slap myself in the head for being to icheon many times and never stopped to have a look at the pottery world. The dark grey on white looks amazing. Very nice work.
Those matte dark grey on white pieces are gorgeous! They remind me of the Mata Ortiz pottery a bit, though the patterns are different of course.
Thank you so much for this wonderful
series featuring Korean artisans . I hope more to come!
Mad respect. "Every process is equally important".
Meticulous for every piece!
The whole process was so mesmerizing to watch. That black and white tea set was the icing on the cake.
We visited our son when he was stationed in Wonju and he took us to Yeoju to see the ceramics and to buy some pottery. We have a matched set of beautiful jars that we treasure. Beautiful county and Yeoju was a great experience.
Can’t wait to go back to Korea to bring back such precious pieces home!
Seen the prices? 🤑
@@allthingsstreamed9174 Seen the skill and time that go into producing one? They are handmade by master craftsmen. You pay accordingly.
The price of that ONE pc bowl may cost 300-400 dollars since it has Stamp From the master.. Hehe!
@@allthingsstreamed9174 on their website they have some products that are a little easier to afford. There's a 8 piece bowl & 1 plate set that's $220, I hope to get the white 1 later this year 😊😁
These last so long when made by master craftsman and kept well. I have a few that was handed down from my grandmother and still using them today. She told me that she got those from her mother. Kinda amazing considering that those times included occupation, and then Korean War.
Could you imagine the amount of time that this man has put into his work that allows him to be so gosh darn good at it?
These people are masters... Knows the ins and outs of the process. Beautiful work👍👍👍
I've loved Korean ceramics for a long time, so it was really cool to see into the process! Thank you.
What an wonderful craftsmanship
That black and white set were so beautiful!!! It looked like alabaster. Truely master craftsmen.
Whoa, all those hands made process, absolutely delicate and beautiful! I knew that Korea has very deep and rich pottery tradition and culture but it's an honor to be able to see on youtube!!!! I mean, they make their own glaze from the scratch !! Thank you for introducing Eater!!!
I had a friend of mine associate pottery with Japan because of the western glorification of Japan through popularization of some of their food and entertainment (In short my friend is a weeb XD) When I told them that Japan did not have ceramics till the 1600 (or late 1500) and learned from korea and china after the invasion they were very surprised. I showed them old movies depicting pre-edo era Japan where they were using mostly wooden bowls and metal pots. It's interesting that sometimes exposure to only one type of culture can make people associate things from that area to that specific culture.
Wow. It is almost astonishing to see a foreigner have a objective view on East Asian history and heritage. Certainly Japan has long years of craftsmanship tradition, but in terms of ceramics, your knowledge is accurate. Thank you for your appreciation.
12:53 the black and white ones are absolutely gorgeous. Just, wow.
In an age of throw-away mass production, it is so refreshing to see people who actually care about quality and take pride in their work. Bravo!
There would be more attention to quality if people were able to devote their lives to what they care about
Just some ranting but that is my experience
광주요 Gwangjoo yo, it is a very popular ceramic brand in Korea.
Fyi, ‘Yo’ is a very old word for tableware.
Absolutely beautiful. Korea's history of ceramics is quite rich.
Korea
modernizing but also preserving traditions at the same time
Jongun Kim, now youre back to normal!
hmmm
Hmm you look familiar. 🤔
I’ve been using all of their tableware set since I was born and still today!
Lucky you!
Yeah! Your so lucky!! One pcs of that bowl, may cost 200-400 dollars..
12:23 wonderful
광주요가 Eater에 소개되었네요. 반갑네요. 한국의 아름다운 도자기랍니다. 많은 요리사들이 갖고 싶어하기도 하구요.
I gasped when the finished bowls came out of the kiln - completely gorgeous!! 😍 I'd love a set of my own someday!
Oh God, this is hard to even buy even in Korea... so goddamn beautiful, makes my heart flutter.
Each bowl or plate is a work of art! Beautiful!
This is amazing!!! Now i need a set of dishes for my special kimchi made after i purchase some jars from a wonderful Onngi maker in a previous video . They are so gorgeous!!! Someday , Someday!
How did you get in contact with the Onggi maker?
Sounds amazing! You really know how to eat. There are so many different kinds of kimchi, if you also like non-spicy kimchi, you can try ‘dong-chimi(made out of raddish and it is my favourite) or ‘baek kimchi(white kimchi)😍😍😍
@@Kk-jj3xi I love so many versions. Oh be still my heart. I know many don't care for it but to me after the first bite I was hooked! I cannot ever picture it not being in my life. It is more than just taste, it's all the health benefits as well . At times when there has been no kimchi to be had and I did not have proper ingredients here I noticed a big difference in my health. ,(LOL did I mention that I think in my last life I was Korean? Lol crazy but I think true! 😄) Ahhhhhhh kimchi mmmmmmm. My favorites are Tongbaechu, chonggak and last and definitely not least LOL buchu kimchi .💜💜💜 Good to meet you btw stella!
@@tamraburris4268 oh my gosh! I bet you have more knowledge about kimchi than I have🤣🤣 Let me introduce some dishes using kimchi as well!

I have always wanted to tell people, who like kimchi, that kimchi is just a general term, so there are many other kinds of it while I was living in North America and Europe for my study! As Korean, I’m really thankful for your interest to kimchi!!! And especially when you said you probably were Korean in your last life, it really touches me! You are so sweet😊😊
Please stay healthy during this crazy pandemic and come visit us after it ends!! 💖🍀🍀🍀
@@Kk-jj3xi Ohoho Now you're talking. . love kimchi pancake. Very crispy done, chewy middle . mmmmm . kimchi jigae is so good for when your not feeling well. Ok ok maybe its my preference to chicken soup. Lets talk Noodles now😁😁😁
Honestly I was having low expectations up until the finished product was shown! Those were majestic! I love the black ones. They need more screen time.
I’m obsessed with these videos which emphasis the amazing assets of Korean culture
even though i was raised away from my motherland videos like this make me proud for korean culture
who else got nervous at 7:39 when he lifted up the tray of bowls 😅 "don't drop it!" it's so interesting, a lot of science, artistry, technique involved. i would buy one of his bowls
love watching the making of traditional ceramic series . Such a skill ! ✨ thank you
Look at the final art at the end
Oh My Gosh
Wow, the finished products are beautiful.
The shape of that rice bowl! so beautiful- I wish I could watch him make that one over and over again
I love Korean ceramics. Kwangjuyo is very popular and of high quality. Thanks a lot for sharing this. Good luck!!
I love how he enjoy his work and his creation looks amazing!
Astonishing. I salute you Master. I'll never complain about the price of handmade pots again.. I'll save until I can afford them. I want to make a cooling refrigerator, using 2 pots, sand, water and evaporation from the sun's heat. Goodbye plastic. I love knowing that it will return to soil, the same as me, with no damage done to the world.
I liked watching ppl make ceramics, its a profession that I don't think I'll be ever to master it
Amazing craftsmanship! Big respect for these people making this pottery
I could not take my eyes off of this video! Such great skill, talent and craftmanship!
I could listen to this all day.
The affection of a creator, his focus, the music. Ahh
Shaping the clay looks very therapeutic and calming. Wish my workplace was like that.
Fascinating! It's great seeing people who love what they do. The result is a product that can't be duplicated.
Really enjoyable viewing, the tableware was so pretty.
So talented. Hoping that this artistry will stay alive
बड़े कमाल की बात हैं ना
आंखें तालाब नही है लेकिन फिर भी भर आती हैं,
और इंसान मौसम नही है फिर भी बदल जाता हैं..!!

किसी की तारिफ करने के लिए जिगर चाहिए,
बुराई तो बिना हुनर के किसी की भी की जा सकती हैं..!!.
I am taking ceramics right now at my college and love using the wheel. I love different cultures as well. This video helps me with my research portion for my next project.
This is heartwarming and absolutely beautiful. What a master of the craft.
I am completely entranced watching and learning about this.
Loved watching this!
so accurate, hvnt seen some one throw with such accuracy his hands are like precision machines
This is obviously a facility with many employees who are not around in the video. I am sure they love him. It is always great to have a boss who knows how to do what you do.
Wow! Those are some terrific pieces that are made. I like the skill and tradition the Korean people have in their lives.
I have so much respect for these people - true artisans and such dedication for their work!
I was holding my breath the whole time when he was sculpting. Absolutely beautiful!!! I want them so bad.
Enjoyed the way he explained the process.
I mean when we hold in our hands a ceramic bowl we don't truely appreciate how much work and art it needs in order to be. This video shows it. Each piece needs lots of care and patience and knowledge. Nice video.
이분 진짜 대단하시네... 고려청자보다 더 좋은걸 막 찍어내는 클라스
I’ve never seen slip brushed onto greenware to create designs. Quite unique & truly beautiful
so much work for a bowl! mad respect!
This is so beautiful
I have a few of their pieces and I will always cherish them
I really want one of those, even defected ones will also do...They are so beautiful!!
So much hardwork and effort in one bowl👍
Wow! Precision, Perfection!
I appreciate the hand made art
Cutting the clay looked really satisfying
These are seriously beautiful
Just FANTASTIC!!!!!
Beautiful
Through his masterly skills,he created art piece out of clay.
Am i the only one who thinks when he brakes the claw in half its really satisfying
Tbh, whenever I eat outside in a traditional restaurant. I always see plates, glass and utensils instead of food. Like I am more fascinate in this arts. Even on pottery in ancient times. We use clay pot jar to store water and it comes out cold. We made "buro" using clay jars until now. Pottery is essential even now. I'm happy seeing such videos where we can learn and see masterful arts.
I enjoyed watching this pottery making. How much time, work, skill n experience goes into it. The end product is really superb
Beautiful craftsmanship
this is mastery, love to watch this!
The final result is so beautiful 😭😭
Fantastic video! Those are some fantastic looking handcrafted dishwares.
This was incredible, thank you for the video.
Thank you for sharing this. Such beautiful pieces of art! Amazing!
Art and heart at it's best.
Those are beautiful
Absolutely beautiful!!
Amazing , watch korean made traditional bows
Beautiful work!
What a stunning and delicate process. It's less sugar coated than Japanese pottery and more durable than mass produced Chinese ones.
How beautiful, I wish I could be so creative.
What a desirable piece of pottery, such fun to create too,
Very beautiful. Impressive.
That's amazing.. so much dedication and knowledge.. heartful respect from India...
I love it~ one of best tech in the world
Just beautiful.. That was a very enjoyable video.
