  • JEONJU, SOUTH KOREA - I stay in a luxury $200 guesthouse in the heart of Jeonju Hanok Village. Hanok are famous traditional houses in South Korea and this hanok stay was special. I give you a guided tour of the Jeonju hanok. Jeonju, known as the food capital of South Korea. Famous for dishes like choco pie or the original bibimbap. I try the Jeonju Choco pie and eat the best Bibimbap in Jeonju. But there's more to Jeonju than just its food. The Jeonju Hanok Village is stunning and a luxury stay really does add to the traditional Korean experience in Jeonju. This historic Korean village offers so many beautiful spots and sights that walking around Jeonju is a pleasure. I really enjoyed making this Jeonju Vlog. My highlight was playing traditional Korean games with a couple of Korean girls in the park.
    This Jeonju travel guide will the must-eat, must-see, and must-experience in Jeonju.

    Among the UA-camrs who visited Korea, he seems to be the one who knew the most about Korea. I visited a traditional restaurant that is famous among Koreans and there are famous foods in each region. I think I chose and ate exactly the famous foods. I also enjoyed the interpretation of food.

    12:55 This food is called 'Cheong po mook', and it is made by mixing mung beans and black sesame seeds into a jelly form.
    (Generally, 'Cheong po mook' does not contain black sesame seeds, so it is white in color. The addition of black sesame seeds is unique to this restaurant.)

    Bibimbap is hard to find near my home, unfortunately it's only Korean BBQ. Jeonju looks beautiful, I am sure that I will visit one day.

      yeah, no chance for me to get it either. I think I have said before, I just resort to cooking my own things. You will love Jeonju if you ever visit. Must stay in the hanok village rather than outside too

    Looks like you really went all out while in Korea when it came to good eating 😋. Bibimbap, is one of my favorite foods. I made some of that fried Korean dish with kimchi, sausages, onion, garlic, rice and gochujang paste with crunchy bits at the bottom served with chili garlic fried in olive oil for dipping. And Nori paper. Man was it good 😋

    • @hungrytoexplore
      @hungrytoexplore  3 місяці тому +2

      haha you know that is my style! Bibimbap is awesome, there is just so much going on. It reminds me of that Thai dish Khao Kluk Kapi in the sense that you have so many different flavours and textures with rice, just mix it up and enjoy!

    I am South Korean, and my father was born and raised in what is now Jeonju Hanok Village in the 1970s. There were many buildings there that were hundreds of years old, but they were not as beautiful as they are now, and were more like old, crumbling, abandoned houses that had been destroyed during the Japanese occupation and the Korean War. So Hanok Village was one of the poorest neighborhoods in Jeonju City and was close to a slum. As South Korea's economy developed after the 1980s, the number of people who wanted to see old buildings increased, and businessmen who saw the demand bought the slums in the Hanok Village and rebuilt the Hanok, creating the current Hanok Village. In the process, my father's family was virtually kicked out for a small amount of money. Hanok Village itself has hundreds of years of history, but most of its current buildings are recently built. It is different from 'real' historical villages such as Bukchon and Andong and is more of a replica. (Because it was rebuilt in modern times, it was not registered as a UNESCO cultural heritage site.)
    I remember my father saying that every time Jeonju Hanok Village appeared on TV, the buildings were all fake and all the buildings that were really hundreds of years old were demolished. I leave a comment because I want people who watch the video to know the truth. There are many other villages in South Korea that retain traces of ancient times, so if you want to see the true architectural style of the Joseon Dynasty, I recommend going elsewhere.
