Hi guys! It’s taken me a long time to put this video together, but I did it by popular request and managed to try a lot of good restaurants in the meantime! I hope you enjoy this video and have fun exploring Itaewon!
Hi Marie! I'm visiting Seoul in May and have a good selection of restaurants for my mom and I to go to. With your guides and honest reviews it helps me to narrow down that list. I was wondering if you have or could try Ossu Seiromushi, 30 Baekjegobun-ro 45-gil, Songpa 1(il)-dong
서울 송파구 백제고분로45길 30. I want to visit that restaurant but I hear many mixed reviews!
Marie's Kawaii World which neighborhoods which you recommend to visit in Seoul when your only there for a week?
This is so helpful, thanks!
Ok
The drama brought me here and looking forward for the latest update.
😆
I love this style video. Very real and informative. 감사합니다!
I appreciate the thorough run-down and honest reviews of the area and each place! Thanks for making this video! :)
Glad you enjoyed it!
I’ve lived near Itaewon for the past 4 years and never knew these places existed! Thanks to your video, I’ll definitely will be checking some of these places out! 😂😂
There are so many things to explore! Hope you like them :)
Came here after watching Itaewon Class
1:31 I saw DanBam
8:27 i saw DanBam again. haha
Ok
me too omg >.
i love how you are able to dissect every single neighborhood! Please do one on sinchon and idae!!! or an updated version of instagram worthy cafes!
Thank you so much for this video, there was so much effort and thought put in to this. I really enjoyed watching it. I actually stayed in Itaewon back when I visited Seoul last September and I had no idea that half of these places existed. I will definitely try these out if I get to visit again. Thank you Marie!
I'm glad you enjoyed the video! New cafes and restaurants are always popping up so maybe they didn't exist even last September!! :)
What a great video! Thank you!!
I love how thorough your videos are.
Thank you Kelcy
I love your videos! They´re so well done and edited, with a lot of relevant information. Greetings from Chile :)
Hi Sonia! Thank you so much!! I visited Chile a long time ago, its beautiful! :)
I really enjoy your video Marie! So much history and information. Knowing that you are fairly new to Seoul, you could tell you did your homework! Thank you!
Thank you so much, Anne! I did eat at a lot of cafes and restaurants to make this video :)
Thanks for this! We booked an Airbnb at Itaewon in Dec and I squealed when you showed those antique shops! Love those plates! 5:06 😍😍 can't wait
They antique district is pretty amazing! Enjoy :)
Thanks for posting this! I'm visiting in April and have booked a hostel in Itaewon. When booking I didn't realise that it was such a expat area so was a bit worried as normally like to stay in non touristy areas. You've alleviated my fears a little!
It's very foreigner friendly so you should be fine :) I hope you enjoy your time in Seoul!!
I love watching your video with all the details and information you share for the viewers. Keep it up. ❤️
Thank you, Rachel!! :)
@@MariesKawaiiWorld ♥️♥️♥️ you're welcome.
Thank u for this video!!
I'm glad you enjoyed it!!
👍 loved it!
Thank you!!
What a great video. Must have taken a great deal of time and effort to piece it all together
Yes, it did! Thanks for your kind words.
Thank you for being so honest in your videos!...it really does help me plan out places that I should visit and which places I should steer clear of~!! Like always love you and your family 😍👍
Hi Anna, Thank you!! I'm so glad you liked this video and yes, I have to be honest... even though not everyone will necessarily agree with me, It's the kind of info I'd want to know. Every spot has its strengths and weaknesses, and everyone has their own preferences.
@@MariesKawaiiWorld I totally agree!! Sometimes when I watch other videos of the same areas I feel like they play it up on how it actually is like....so thank you for giving honest reviews~!! 👍👍👍👍
Thanks for all the videos! I was going to Korea this summer but because of the situation right now it's not happening. Meanwhile, I have been watching your videos and taking notes! I hope to go soon!
Aww that’s too bad. I’m glad you can enjoy Korea thru my videos!
Really good reviews keep up the good work
Thank you!
Very good. All movies from You are very good. Thank You!
Thank you Jan!
My neighborhood! Lots of my fave places (Vato's!!!) As well as a few places I will have to check out!
I am in love with these videos!!
Awesome structure and editing. Pretty daughters and just a cool fam! Korea is awesome and all of my asian friends are thee absolute best. My bestfriend in highschool was Japanese and they are super super nice! Im happy to have had the experience to meet so many different ethnic groups.🦋🦋🦋 Keep it going and more prizes lol.🙄😁
Thank you 😊
I always love watching your videos because you feature so many interesting and cute places, plus your daughters are really adorable. 💗
Hi Cherie! Thank you so much...you're so sweet!! :)
😊💗
Hi, Mrs Kawaii! Was nice to find your page to get to know!
Hi! Thank you for watching!! :)
Love getting to see all the cool stops along the way; shame a lot of places are empty. I do hope more stores will come in to draw attention and business, especially unique, independent stores. Keep having fun and exploring, Marie. God bless yours and you! :)
Thank you, Melissa!! I am happy that you enjoyed this video. I also hope that the vacant spaces can be filled with interesting businesses and shops. Thanks for watching my videos since the very beginning!!
@@MariesKawaiiWorld You are very welcome, sweetie! :D
This must have taken so long to film/edit. Thanks so much!! Im going to be staying in Itaewon soon for a couple weeks so this helps a lot
Thank you, I’m glad you found it helpful!! It did take a long time to compile all these restaurants and cafes. :)
Bravo Marie!!! You made a very nicely produced video. Just curious, did you go to more than 25 places and filtered out the places you didn't like?
Go RBG!!! My mom and sister and I went to the documentary (along with a big group of other women and some cool guys). Oh, loved the blog too!!!!
Lol! You noticed!! She is one of my all time favorite people and my for sure my favorite Supreme Court Justice. I can only imagine what she is thinking about the newest guy. And that has been my favorite shirt ever since I got it. At first glance I thought you were talking about a neighborhood in Korea 😂
My sister gave my mom the RBG action figure for Christmas. She's the president of the resident's council at her retirement community...she brought RBG to the next meeting. The women loved it, the men not so much.
Wow i wish i watched this video when i went to itaewon a while back! I tried Linus and was also a bit underwhelmed...hoping to go back and try some of these restaurants!
Hi Tiffany! i'm glad you liked the video. Yes Linus was not a favorite but it's so popular for some reason.
Thanks for this amazing video! Itaewon has so much potential to grow into one of the most popular neighborhood in korea, but greed by landlords are killing the neighborhood!
True! We'll see how it redevelops...
Itaewon Class brought me here haha
Fond memories of these streets
As a vegan I love Plant and the veg sandwich at The baker's Table
Great video, thanks. Do you know if Mafia Dessert opened somewhere else? About the pizza, thin crust is not Napolitan style, but it does look delicious.
Oh my! How long did you take to shoot this video? There is a ton of information. Amazing. Only someone living in Seoul can come out with such a detailed video. I visited went to Itaewon once to eat a gelato from Zucca. Is it popular in Seoul? I also visited American Mood for a philly steak, but I was not impressed. I will check out more of your videos to prepare my next trip to Seoul :-)
Omg, it took me forever to film this!! I had to visit a lot of restaurants and cafes.
Poor me! ;) Thank you for noticing all the hard work and taking the time to leave a comment. I wanted to post it last week but I didn't have all the video footage I wanted to include. I have not been to either of those places, but things are always changing here, maybe it was popular when you visited!
Halal Guys in SK??? WHAT?? Im in Seoul now for 2 weeks will definitely go there in the next few days!! :D
It's so good!! Enjoy :)
I live here and love South Korea 🇰🇷 💕
I was told the art scene is great in itaewon
There's great underground artists and DJs as well
Ahh interesting! I haven’t been
I'm kind of blown away from the prices of food at these restaurants. I'm from the states and not only the prices are bit lower but as always, our portions are bigger. When in Korea, stick to the local cuisine in my case.
Yes, I don't really recommend that American visitors come here for that reason. Foreign food especially American food tends to be expensive here. But if you live in Korea and are craving something, you have to pay the price.
Waoowww..
😀
So helpful!! All I ever do in Itaewon is get drunk, so it’s nice to see these different places 😂
Lol!! I think it's known for nightlife but I haven't gone out to a bar since I had Sienna 5 years ago. 😂 Maybe someone should do a video about the nightlife.
Marie's Kawaii World if only I was constructive enough to make that video 😂 I know it all too well
Hi MARIE Have you consider bring a private tour guide?
I wish Yonnamdong is next 😩♥️
Ahhh I have that one on my mind ;)
oof moved out of ittaewon when i was 10 and its changed drastically like whoa
Lol! Its crazy how much things change.
I wish Suwon is next.😮
I’m moving to Itaewon! That’s why I’m here haha.
😀😀
i decided to check out itaewon yesterday for lunch so i watched this video. i ended up going to linus bbq despite the slightly negative review here because i felt like trying some bbq.
parking was a pain because there was a huge festival going on but i did get parking at the city office.
i've smoked a lot of brisket and baby back ribs in my day (mostly on my big green egg) and the bbq here wasn't excellent but it wasn't terrible either. it was "good enough" for my craving.
the brisket could have used some more smokiness and it was a little dry. the pulled pork lacked flavor. the baby back ribs were good but a little too sweet. but again, i wasn't expecting perfection.
i wanted to go try the matcha green tea tiramisu at mafia dessert but the festival was too crazy and i ended up getting sidetracked over there so missed it but hope to go next time.
one of my favorite places is actually el pino 323. you passed by it when you were eating the mozzarella cheese hot dog. i like their bowls and tacos there!
anyway, thanks for the great video on itaewon. thumbs up!
Thanks! I will have to check out El Pino next time I'm in Itaewon. I guess you have to take what you can get when it comes to American style BBQ in Seoul.
@@MariesKawaiiWorld Chef D over at el pino has an interesting background too. the tortilla bowls are pretty good. the tacos are good too but they are basically street tacos that i'm used to paying $1 for when i'm on vacation in cancun, mexico (or roughly the same place on the streets in LA) so it feels a little off to pay 12k-15k won for a plate of like 3 of them but oh well, they are good and authentic at least and like you said, you take what you can get.
i've heard good things about an american style bbq place called aboutjins so i may try that someday.
you must be millionaire , you always eat nice and expensive food. drooling
Haha no!!!!
😀😍👍
Hi Melanie!! THanks for watching!
I’m shocked!! Neapolitan pizza is actually supposed to have super thick and fluffy crust
I want to buy deep fried cheese but I can’t find the shop on the Google map or KakaoMap. Please help me
It’s near itaewon foreign bookstore maps.google.com/maps?oe=UTF-8&hl=en-us&client=safari&um=1&ie=UTF-8&fb=1&gl=kr&entry=s&sa=X&ftid=0x357ca24811650d1f:0xff31fe87cd33bbbb&gmm=CgIgAQ%3D%3D
😔
hi, do you know if seoul have any physical stores that sells bodyluv pillow?
I didn't know what that was and googled it, and realized we have one at home!! Lol. My husband bought it online. It eventually gets flat though. I don't think I've ever seen it in stores.
What is the public restroom situation like in Seoul?
Most places have regular toilets but if you go to old neighborhoods they might have a squatty potty (a hole in the ground)
Makan sedap..yg halal
You should try Manimals, it's better than Linus imo
Oh ok! I will have to check it out! Thanks for the rec :)
Agree!
Hi can you take us where to shop man clothing too thank you
Sorry I don’t live in Korea anymore
I move to bundang in 3 days. I am trying to remain calm.
Lol
@@MariesKawaiiWorld Ive been in bundang for 9 days now! Sunday I'm going to Seoul for the first time, and all my coworkers told me to try Itaewon first, so I'm using your video as my guide lol
What if one were binary?
Wheres DanBam?
"A lot of vacant buildings" that's literally just every Australian city tbh
Realty? I find vacant buildings to be sad
Marie's Kawaii World same here, business doesn’t go that well in Australia and I think because of financial reasons it’s very hard to keep an indépendant business running. Australian realestate is extremely expensive.
Thanks for your videos btw! I’m going to Korea in April and have most of your vids in preparation!
Pho in the United States isn't exactly "United States pho". It's South Vietnamese style pho. Reason why it doesn't exist in Asia is because South Vietnam no longer exist in Asia. Vietnam, as a whole, fell to communism in the late 1970s when Saigon fell. Thus, Hanoi style or North Vietnam style pho is what is prevalent there now. And also, U.S. is probably the only place where you're safe saying "Saigon". If you utter it in Vietnam, you will immediately get reprimanded and sternly lectured - commie style - on how it is now Ho Chi Minh City.
I would like to say that Vietnamese people definitely still refer to Saigon as Saigon (on average, it would be foreigners who refer to it HCM City). Also in Southern Vietnam we eat the southern style pho which is different from the Ha Noi style. Ha noi style pho has different herbs and the meat is more of a "broken up" texture. The pho that you eat in California is most likely the southern style as it is the most popular and is the type you will see pop when you google it. In Vietnam, they also eat hoisin sauce. Sincerely, a viet person living in CA.
