Maangchi & Japanese Breakfast Explore Effects of War on Korean Cuisine | Close to Home
Вставка
- Опубліковано 13 тра 2019
- In this series, Michelle Zauner, an author and the singer of Japanese Breakfast, explores the results of migration on cuisine, and the personal experiences and community that are tied into the merging of food cultures. As cooks try to replicate familiar dishes in foreign homes, they rely on what’s around them. But by tying in techniques, ingredients, and sensory memories from their places of origin, they create new, hybrid cuisines.
In this episode, Zauner sits down with Sarah Lee, co-founder of Kimbap Lab, and Emily Kim, a UA-camr and author better known as Maangchi, to discuss the evolution of Korean-American cuisine. The three share a meal at Pocha32 in New York City’s Koreatown and dive into the origins of Budae Jjigae, or “army base stew,” and their own experiences with Korean-American food.

How War Changed Korean Food Forever with Maangchi & Japanese Breakfast - Розваги
Maangchi is the most pure person on this godforsaken platform. Love her and protect her.
Ikr
She is a freaking treasure!
Absolutely, buuuut the presenter seems to be another random hipster
blackdaylight I mean she doesn’t seem stuck up and has some interests in what the guests have to say. She’s not bad at all.
@@DogOffTheLeash alright I'll give you that but the overall blahzay tone of her narration grates at my nerves specifically because she opens by saying how close she is to this story... hipsters just run me the wrong way
i just finished michelle’s book where she praises maangchi’s youtube channel for helping her reconnect with her late mother’s cooking so seeing them together in a video makes me 🥹🥹🥹
Was looking for this
Sammmmme! And Maangchi was my pandemic comfort as I watched and tried to replicate her meals 🫶🏼
Saaaaame!
Ditto here! 😊
I think she’s brilliant but the thought of losing my mother is so awful, I’d rather bury my head in the sand.
Maangchi is literally one of the few people in this world I would trust to talk about authentic Korean food to a general audience. Whatever she says is gospel
What about home cooks in Korea, chefs in Korea, and other Korean people who have moved to different countries but still eat Korean food? I think this is a bit of a silly statement...
@@jasminee204 Yeah I got ya. But when I said "general audience," I meant a general American audience that view these kinds of videos to get a perspective on Korean food, culture and the stories behind it. Given that Maangchi has been teaching English-speakers all over the world how to cook authentic Korean food for years -- I have tried many of her recipes and they're always spot on -- I can't think of a better representative to speak to this topic.
She's the first i go to for Korean recipes😊
Ill admit I can be a Korean food snob. But Maangchi is such a charismatic youtuber Id throw French fries in pajeon if she told me to.
I hope she doesn't start a cult because I'd be first in line at the mess hall.
Sasha DeNeve please don’t put French fries in paejon
I was adopted from Korea when I was 3 months. I never learned the culture or the food and Maangchi became my surrogate Korean mom. This show was so informative for me.
🤗🤗🤗
Club Soda I genuinely have no idea what not being sold into slavery has anything to do with being excited to learn about my heritage?
@Club Soda troll harder. idk how many infant slaves are on the market but you'd probably be first in line if you could afford one. @Jgallub Korean known history is sparse between corruption and wars but korean queens, linguists love hangul, Admiral Yi, King Sejong, and how historically culture moved from China-korea-japan (even though the Japanese wont admit it =P. now it's going japan-korea-china
Club Soda at least your mom didnt abort you
I remember getting teased so much for putting fried egg in my sandwich. Now every hipster restaurant are putting egg in their burger.
did they do a round house kick at you because of that? Wow man
What? I used to have that as a child! Fried egg sandwich is amazing!
Egg is common on burgers but it sucks that people bullied you for that
@@marsonsaturn it wasnt before bitch
I had a friend in High school that was Korean. She did not speak much English. We would wait for each other and go and sit together for lunch, that way we had company. I always had the school lunch on the free program. Everyday she brought a fried egg on two pieces of bread. I would be so hungry if that is all I had to eat all day! To me at the time it seemed strange, and when I spoke to my mom about it, she said that her family was probably trying to save as much money as possible and or had very little money coming form another country and that was all they could afford. I can tell you today, I make fried egg sandwiches all of the time and they are delicious!! I always think of her when I cook one.
how maangchi responded to the idea of food becoming inauthentic is such a perfect answer....because its really about suiting to your own taste where you can also acknowledge that the original is rooted somewhere significant, and that food can be a means for cultural preservation, heritage, and sense of identity. but theres always going to be differences within, people will always have their own taste and if some white guy thinks his vegan kimchi made with celery and cauliflower is good, then of course i wont eat it, and no i wouldnt consider it kimchi, but i feel as long as theyre not taking credit and making it seem better than the authentic, then its okay i think. i mean, theyre right, korean americans changed their food when they came here. thats why it frustrates me when expats think they can live in korea for a year and then come back leaving 1 star reviews at korean restaurants in the states. those are immigrants who own those restaurants, who shed their blood sweat and tears to come here. just leave the entitlement out, because honestly sometimes its more complex.
I would go even further and say that if people think it's better than the authentic version, they are welcome to say so. I can still make fun of them for being so stupid, but there's nothing inherently valuable in 'authenticity' and there's nothing wrong with having a difference in opinion. There's a fantastic korean restaurant near me that does everything just like you'd see in Korea. There's also a Chipotle-style korean fusion place that is cheap and fast. Both are really wonderful places to eat, but for different reasons.
Something else to note is that historically, immigrants make all kinds of fusion. Many American dishes and cuisines are the product of immigrants altering and adjusting food to fit their preferences, but using the different resources in their new country.
@@benthrasher9739 I think you're mistaking authenticity with traditional.
Intro Outro for something to be authentic culturally, it has to be traditional to some degree. Even if that tradition has only existed for a few years, there must be something there to grab onto. Without it, you can’t really describe something as part of culture. The whole point of my comment is that a new tradition is made all the time, making a new authentic dish. Take, for example, spaghetti and meatballs. This is a classic Italian American dish, although in Italy no one would consider this authentic Italian cuisine. It really isn’t either. That’s why it doesn’t matter if the person making asian food his own way is white. Asian people who come to america mess with the traditional recipes too, so what’s wrong with a white person doing the same?
@@benthrasher9739 It doesn't matter whether the cook is white or otherwise. What matters is the understanding where a dish comes from and the cultural significance it has before any changes are made. A flippant fusion make do wouldn't be taken seriously as authentic.
To respond to the last bit of your comment, the difference would be the (Asian) person changing the American recipe isn't calling their result authentic. What's an authentic American recipe, anyway? Do share.
Intro Outro that fusion becomes authentic after a couple generations pass because they’re no longer immigrants, they’re Americans who descended from immigrants. Cajun cooking is a perfect example of this. New Orleans is American, distinctly, but it was inspired by multiple cultures as well as the environment. No one would say that Cajun is “just bastard French cuisine.” It has become its own distinct culture.
As far as purely American with no influence from any other culture? That’s kind of an unfair comparison to the rest of the world with thousands of years to develop, but okay. America has always existed in the age of globalization, so it has influenced and been influenced by other places to the point where it doesn’t have a distinct cultural identity that is entirely its own. It could be argued that this is essentially true for most of the world as well. China influenced all its neighbors, each region of India influenced the others, the Islamic caliphate influenced or eclipsed the surrounding cultures, etc. there is no cuisine that is truly and purely authentic to its own culture and is not rooted in some other culture.
I love seeing Michelle doing things other than music. You can tell she's passionate about a lot of things, and seeing how her success with Japanese Breakfast is sort of snowballing and allowing her to branch out is really inspiring.
Seriously, she's so multi-talented and great at so many things... glad she's able to share her mind in a whole bunch of ways.
Wait, she's the girl from Japanese Breakfast?
So that's why she looks familiar
She's cute with that hairstyle
And her NYTimes best selling book “Crying in H Mart”! She’s so talented
@@JessieDubois8 I just finished it, such an amazing book! Had me sobbing on a plane like my own mother just died. She’s a truly gifted writer.
I’m here for Maangchi! I love this woman. I’ve learned all my Korean cooking through her channel. 😄
me too!
As a Korean-American I understand having the duel emotions of resentment because when I was a kid I was bullied and at the same time happy because now it's considered cool to be Korean. My mom is Korean and after my parents divorced when I was 6, I was sent to America to live with my American family. It's like the Korean part of who I am, the first 6 years of my life never happened. Maangchi helped me get back that half of who I am.
Wow! Im such a fan of her show too!
I just finished Michelle's book, so this video has even more meaning...
maangchi is..... literally a blessing and if you arent subscribed to her you should be
Second. Maangchi is underappreciated, full stop.
This.
OMG IT'S MAANGCHIIIIII!!! SO GLAD YOU GUYS WORKING WITH HER, SHE'S A LEGEND!!!
Yaass!!
I like her a lot
I'm Korean and I've watched a few Maangchi's videos before. So now I'm reading all the comments for this video and seeing all this love for her really touched me. I really did not know how popular and loved she is with non-Koreans. I'm really touched, thank you all.
I remember reading Michelle's article about her late mother and H Mart. It was a very touching article.
You should go read the comments under her videos. She's very much loved by a variety of people. I remember someone describing her as "an adorable Korean auntie who teaches you to cook"
Seeing Maangchi's name is what made me look at this video! I love her channel!
There is no Korean restourant where I live ( small town near Mugla Turkey ) I learnt how to make kimchi and every year i make my batch. but i was not sure my kimchi is good or bad because i don't have any Korean neighbor or friend to ask opinion .After some 7 -8 years a friend of mine visited Korea , sent me two cans of Kimchi .First time i tasted the real thing and compared with mine. Both were tasting similar .Thank you Maangchi !
@@Bombogor gosh canned kimchi are the worst kind. I almost puked when I tried it
I love Maangchi’s zen way of thinking. /Sometimes it’s good to not take life too seriously
She uses a benign word like "annoyed" when she refers to a white dude proclaiming himself to be the expert in making kimchi. But I could tell that she was being diplomatic. The disdain of overreaching white people is a universally held feeling among all people of color. Fact.
I love Maangchi. Her gentleness. Her tolerance. Her kindness. Her intelligence. Her patience and sensitivity.
Maangchi introduced a wide range of diverse people from all around the world to Korean cusine. She should be the Ambassador of Korean cusine and culture. Truly a living treasure of Korean cusine. Love you Maangchi😍
I'm Korean and italian, gotta say, feel like I got the 2 best food worlds.
Damn!!! That'll be some good eatin!!! I'm jealous hahahaha
Lucky
xKortalian i always say the italians are the koreans of europe, and the koreans are the italians of asia. Holidays in your household must be off the hook.
@@inevahdie This is very true... I have had the same idea as you for a long time as a native korean. It's very nice to see someone who has a genuine idea that I can agree with on youtube. Thanks for the comment!
Your familydinners must be amazing!
This video just hit different after reading Crying in H Mart. Maangchi is such a light 😭
I just finished the book and I thought so too! Like I wanna see them hug.
Maangchi has no prejudices, no judgment, no agendas. She is so calm, accepting, embracing, and really loving of all people. She is just happy that people cook, are creative, and are part of her internet community. She is truly a beautiful soul who has been a gift to so many people.
Maangchi for president 2020.
I would support this (i kinda do) but she probably doesn't want to, she just wants to cook for us! I love Maangchi still so much though.
If that will happen a lot of her follower will gonna feel bit sad because obviously she won't be doing anymore the on cam cooking show,
Sorry bro, but she cannot. One must be born a US citizen (unless perhaps she has an American parent).
She can't run, unfortunately, due to being born a South Korean citizen. Unless one of her parents was a U.S. citizen, it's no-go. We'd need a constitutional amendment to change it.
For our queen!
As a Puerto Rican descendant who learned everything I know about Korean cooking from the amazing Maangchi, thank you. Raising my family in NY means we have the opportunity to experience a wider palette of food cultures. They have experienced & appreciate traditional family dishes, however exposure to other cultures cuisine piques their curiosity; not only the food itself but the culture they are derived from. Thank you for sharing your stories and history.
I have followed many Maangchi recipes! For anyone who doesn’t know her and want to check her out, my personal favorite recipe of hers is for 시장통닭 sijang tongdak. It’s a style of korean fried chicken. It changed my life and changed how I fry chicken, very very highly recommend
She is right...I NEVER tried or made Korean food until I found Maangchi about a year ago! Love her and her spirit!
I really love how Maangchi talk about being respectful with culture. I laughed when she talked about someone chopping the Napa Cabbage unceremoniously and how she does it her way. She reminded me of my Post Graduate professor who told me that "Culture is relative.".
Maangchi is my hero! she’s the reason why I can cook and share my love for Korean food with my family and friends in Singapore when there wasn’t any Korean food here at all. 💗 덕분에 한식을 자신있게 만들 수 있어서 정말 감사하죠!~
As an Army Brat, I’m no stranger to Korean food. My best friend of 39 years is half Korean, and her family instilled my love for Korean food at the age of 4. She teases me that I’m more Korean than she is because I cook it so much. (Please don’t be offended) But everyone seems to have jumped on the KBBQ when it became popular. I’ve enjoyed it my whole life. When I was a teen in Germany I had a mom gift me 2 jars of Kimchi and at the time I worked for the army Ed center. I brought the jars to work, and that’s what I ate for lunch for a month. This was about 1992. They banished me to the top floor that was vacant for lunch. But couldn’t care less.
I follow Maanghi religiously, have her cook book and awaiting the newest one!
I have gotten in trouble at work my entire career because I cook a ton of Korean, Thai and Indian dishes. An Indian colleague begged me to eat outside because he was terrified everyone would think it was him eating curries all the time.
Your kimchi smelled that powerful? I eat it all the time and it doesn’t bother anyone ...
Me too I'm waiting on #2 book!!
My Korean friend say the same about me!! She showed me how to make certain dishes and I showed her how to make some soul food dishes. We are both foodies and thats how we've bonded.
You are welcome in the Korean family.
I was so confused seeing "Japanese Breakfast" in the title.
I adore Michelle Zauner! As expected, she makes an excellent host with her heartfelt, thoughtful questions. I am so glad that Maangchi participated in this episode as well. I cannot wait for more videos in this series. Thank you to everyone involved!
When Maangchi hinted there’s even a traditional way of splitting the napa cabbage 😭❤️
Small knife cut at the end and then tear.
HKim0072 Omg I literally teard up
I believe there's truth in her comment ... be nice to your ingredients. You can tell the quality of food when its prepared with love and something that's thrown together in a rush. Food is energy, which can absorb energies. Ijs ...
In Korean food is made with love. ♥
Maangchi nailed it..."I want to learn the traditional recipe and then change it to suit my taste". She rocks and you all rock!
You can tell that talking about post-war Korea really struck a chord with maangchi, its like her mood shifted from its usual, cheery self to something more somber.
@Carol it's sarcasm
Maangchi is every korean mom who shared their recipes with me.
I love them all.
omg I love Maangchi and Michelle its so crazy seeing them together like this! Amazing video
I'm Hispanic and the spicy, tangy flavors that we enjoy have so many similarities with Asian food so I've always loved it. I had never been exposed to Korean food like I have been to Chinese and Japanese so when I stumbled upon Maangchi's UA-cam channel, my life was changed for the better! I've made so many of her dishes, japchae being my favorite. I totally feel her comment about learning from the authentic source and then making what you love about it your own. Food is such a source of learning and community and we are blessed to be in a generation that has media sharing outlets like this to expose people to new ideas, ways of thinking, and cultures that even 25 years ago we didn't have.
I’m so used to reading fictional books and waking up from those books thinking like, “huh, they’re not real.” But when I read Michelle’s memoir, it’s like, me waking up from the fact that this whole thing- this whole book was real. Her mother actually died. Peter and Michelle actually married and haven’t divorced. Maangchi actually helped her prepare all those Korean recipes that she had felt lost without. And along with all those other things/events that ACTUALLY happened. In a way, it’s so shocking to me still and also, a good reminder for us all, especially me, that this is the painstakingly harsh beautiful reality.
(Note: But I’m super glad these two met up and made this video together- especially after all those moments when Michelle turned to Maangchi either for food help, or to reconnect with her Korean culture- especially when Kye or her mother wasn’t there to teach her🥹)
Wow. This is really, really good. Glad to see Munchies do something like this. Been waiting for someone to talk about this subject for a long time.
I just love that last shot of Zauner joyfully wiping her tears away in front of H Mart!
Maangchi is the softest, coolest, most authentic and generous person on UA-cam and must be praised and protected at all cost.
As a middle-aged white guy, Maangchi introduced me to a whole new world of cooking. I just love her to death.
Shes 62!! And is 26 years older than me, I'd get with her. Shes so nice and bubbly without being annoyingly over bubbly.
I am very white and from the south in Birmingham Alabama my best friend who my call my brother is Korean he lives in south Korea right now he lived with us for almost 10 years and taught me to cook amazing Korean food recipes his mother made. one of my favorite dishes he taught me how to make is Budae-jjigae. Machi is one of those people that I can follow on UA-cam and look up her recipes and learn how to make Korean dishes and also put my spins on it on a regular basis in our house when we have pizza me and my husband and her sixteen-year-old stick kimchi on our pizza I know that that is not normal but is our life and we love it. many people come to our house has to eat Korean food and we do barbecue and I think that culturally if we can eat all different cultures food Indian Korean Japanese Chinese it makes our world smaller and we realize that we're all the same. thank you for this video it's really warmed my heart and made me miss Korea especially.
The girl in lace seems to have a problem with "white guys." She even calls her own father "White." She calls her mother "Korean," not "Asian." What does "White" mean? English? German? Swiss? French? Norwegian? Irish? What a fool. Oh, it hurt her so much that the other kids didn't eat kimchi. Waah waah. Boo hoo. Her Valley Girl vocal fry is annoying too. I only watched this for Maangchi.
kimchee and tomatoes pair well for some reason. I'll eat spaghetti and have some on the side. some people say they'll use kimchee juice as hot sauce?.. I'm like heat and probiotics!
Coming to this video after reading Michelle’s book Crying in H Mart.
Maangchi was my first introduction to Korean cooking and I trust her recipes above all others. She's so pure and lovable!
Dear Maangchi, I am a 63 year old American. My father was in the Army and I spent several years of my childhood in Okinawa. Seeing and eating Asian foods was an everyday thing for me growing up. Over the years, I have had many Korean and Japanese friends and I have really learned to appreciate Asian cuisine. I love to cook and I have been watching your videos for about a year. A couple of weeks ago, I finally got brave enough to make your vegetarian Kimchi recipe for the first time. It was wonderful. Next, I am thinking about making your cucumber seaweed salad recipe, as well as your twice fried chicken. I just ordered your cookbook. Please make many more videos. You are so pleasant and you make cooking fun. Thank you so much. 🙂
Thank you for giving Maangchi a platform to discuss issues of substance! LOVE HER!
I adore Maangchi! Her book is a vital part of my kitchen and her kimchi recipe is the heart of our kitchen.
whaa? brave kitchen solider. I've heard people say they can make cucumber kimchee but not cabbage kimchee and ask me for advise. I tell them I asked my g'ma once and she replied 'why would I teach a dude how to cook?' now I have to rely on people like you!
This video touched me deeply. I was born around the time that they're discussing, and I get the things they're saying. As a Korean who was adopted and raised by an awesome (but very white) family in a very white area of the USA, the things the girl in white was saying resound with me on such a deep level. Awesome and very candid video. Thank you!
🙂
Omg! I found another! I’m a Korean adoptee as well and this was the closest thing to family teaching you about heritage. Nothing against our white families, but they can’t teach us all these things.
@@jgallub I agree. I mean, it wasn't a conscious decision to keep things from me, I know, and most likely, it really never occurred to them that we might want to know some of these things. I get that. It's just tough.
Sueric check out her amazing music. Japanese Breakfast.
me too! also, michelle has a band called japanese breakfast! they're excellent
I like what Maangchi says...
She wants to learn authentic way first, then vary it up later.
This is how my violin teacher taught me!
I could listen to Maangchi talk about her life all day. She introduced me to Korean cuisine. I've read her cookbook a dozen times.
For me, I lived in Korea for three years from 2013 to 2016, a typical preschool English teacher experience, when I came back to the states, I got my fill of all the American foods I had missed but after a couple months, I began missing lots of my favorite Korean foods as well. That's how I discovered Maangchi! She is the greatest and helps the homesickness I still sometimes feel for Seoul.
Maangchi helped me make some things after I lost my Mom, too. I never really had to cook since Mom always cooked. Maangchi's videos and recipes are easy to follow and let's me make things when I miss my Mom's cooking
I'm Colombian and migrant in Germany, here I found so many asian flavors that I just fell in love with. I started going to the Asian store often and started experimenting with ingredients I've never seen in my life, trying this I found Maangchi's channel and it has been incredible. This cultural experience has done me so good. I love cooking and food brings cultures and people together. This video is incredible. I loved it.
I count myself very blessed to have grown up in an areas (alaska & hawaii) that were huge global melting pots of so many cultures and foods. I grew up tasting amazing dishes that so many others don't even know exist. As my mother always asked me to, I take 3 bites of food before deciding if i like it or not. 1st bite to get rid of any preconceived notion of what i thought it would taste like (the surprise), 2nd bite to let my mouth and brain experience the real flavour, 3rd bite to decide if i like it or not. I LOVE Maangchi! She teaches me so much, not only with cooking, but with her kind peaceful outlook on so many aspects of life. She's wonderful!
I am so happy that you had Maangchi involved. I love watching and learning from her.
Maangchi dodging pretentious questions like the wise Lady she is. Bless her soul.
This series is so pure and amazing, and so enlightening on food and its history. Very rarely does one think of "oh this food is this way because of this reason" or that "this food comes from here because of these people." I find that this series is so genuine in that fact. I very much enjoy watching this and I'm very excited to see more of it!
I was watching this video since it was in my feed while waiting in public. You mentioned about the pinenut porridge story and you reduced me to tears infront of everyone because I watched Maanchi's video too to make it for my mom who is very ill now. My mom said it was so good and just like how she made it for her mother... ♥️♥️♥️ Subscribed!!!
i think its just good to remember that authentic doesnt always mean traditional
Any video with Maangchi makes me happy.
Maangchi’s healthy and honest perspective on America’s abundance and love for processed food and its influence to Korean’s cuisine is so refreshing to hear from someone her age!
maangchi is honestly the best part of youtube, i loved hearing her take on what korean cuisine means to her
It's so cool seeing my favorite musician on Munchies! Great job, Michelle / Japanese Breakfast!
agreed. my Korean mom passed two years ago so I go to Maangchi for recipes. love her. surrogate internet omma!
I'm not Korean, but I love the food and people. Growing up in Los Angeles we have a diversity of cultures and food. I think I'm fortunate to have been exposed to many foods and cultures. I love Maangchi! She's always making the best dishes with love!💞🤗
maangchi is the reason I understand that there is distinctly Korean cooking and the different products. ..and other types of cooking s
...but all done with such caring and purpose...Maangchi simplified types of baking for me....I LOVE that she goes out and picks veg...in central park....and all over....I really love that she explains how an Asian grocery store works...I thank her so much for showing me food I never knew existed!!!..I think she has brought Korean cooking to people who would never know it was possible to prepare for themselves!!!
thank you for interviewing such a treasure of a lady!!!
hi from ont...canada😊🌹🍁
i wonder if she was talking about brad leone on it's alive. that guy is actually cool as hell.
My two faves came together and really did that.. love this love them 💝
A little history, Korean food, AND with one of my favorite people in the world, Michelle; talk about perfect chemistry!
I'm so glad you all did this video. You express much of my thoughts and emotions.
I'm half Korean mixed with Hawaiian, Japanese, Chinese and German, all of which I proudly acknowledge. Love the history data, sharing this with my friends and family.
Maangchi I adore you. You're too young to be like a mom to me but certainly great as a sister! You have been helping me remember what I forgot and cannot get answered because my mom passed years ago. All of you feel like family to me, keep up the great work!
LOVE FROM HAWAII!
Love Maangchi so much! ❤❤
MAANGCHI IS LOVE
Maangchi is the absolute sweetest. I love her channel and her personality when she's cooks.
First let me say that I am not Korean at all but I have always had a love for the food. My first boss when I was 14 was Korean and would always bring meals for us to share on break and she always loved how much I enjoyed her food. She was such a beautiful person a lot like a mom to me and after I moved away from that time in my life I really missed her and finding maangchi gave me those moments back. I am so grateful for her sharing these recipes. My family is from Panama and honestly my grandmother gets upset I know more of Korean cooking than our own.
I do think it’s sad to lose authenticity in our cultures but what a treasure for such beautiful parts of ourselves to be shared and appreciated by others
Thank you!
so glad that they brought Maangchi to a Munchies video!!
this is the greatest collab i've ever seen on youtube
I learned how to cook Korean food through Maangchi’s UA-cam channel. She’s wonderful and glad she was willing to share her recipes with everyone.
I’ve been watching her since middle school she’s literally my grandmother I love you maangchi 💕
Thank you for having Momma Maangchi. This video is very informative and helps remove some of the negative aspects of introspection and looking back for some people.
This is a beautiful video. Everyone's viewpoint is coming from honesty and love.
This series, & Michelle are so amazing & needed!
I always feel like maangchi is like a mother to me. Her videos give me so much comfort since my mother left me. Thank you maangchi
*I see Maangchi I click.*
But it's finals tomorrow so......... I'll catch you after 😅
Soul ASMR Good luck!!
Soul ASMR hope you did well in your Exams 😊
"Learn the basics, then distort at your leisure."
That's the little pocket where greatness dwells.
Also a huge graveyard of failures.
Those ramen burgers and kimchi tacos were so 2013!
Bravo munchies this was amazing, i loved this!!!
Three genuine wonderful people! I love this, it's so personal and the food looks delicious!
love Maangchi!
Munchies you did a good job of inviting Maangchi 😍😍😍
she needs to be more acknowledged 😍
Always so heartwarming to listen to Maangchi :) everything she says exudes just so much love and reverence for Korean food and culture and yet, there is this respectful acceptance of food taking its own shape as cultures mingle and crosses geographic boundaries..
Maangchi is a goddamn legend. She's the Korean mom everyone should have.
...except I would be one chubby lard-ass kid!
i love maangchi so much, so nice to learn more about her. and incredibly excited to see more of this series on migration and culinary fusion. more of this please!
MAANGCHI OMG MY QUEEN
30 seconds in and already loving this show and host - looking forward to more!
Mangchi jusy draws your attention naturally, she seems so pure and authentic, very unique and insperational
Maangchi is a VIP
thanks for featuring her
I love korean food because I watched most of Maangchi's recipes ♥️🍲 she is the best
maangchi is like a household name when it comes to korean cooking. koreans everywhere know who she is and love her like a digital surrogate mother. even my japanese honorary auntie loves maangchi and agrees that her word is gospel. it's incredible what one woman can achieve in terms of reconnecting so many adoptees, biracial people, and second generation korean americans with their culture. sending my love from the great midwest!
I love Maangchi's perspective, and I'm glad that she was voicing it. People need to hear it.
Maangchi is a treasure who must be protected at all costs!
I didn't like how the other two girls were essentially having a two-way conversation with each other while not including Maangchi or interrupting her. She was actually raised in the country omg.
I love Maangchi videos and her personality. Also, really glad to know Michelle, she is lovely and so knowledgeable!
This is so wholesome and honestly seeing Maangchi is what brought me here
