There are many things that foreigners misunderstand about the relationship between Korea and Japan. First of all, from thousands of years ago, Korea was in a dominant cultural and political position in Japan. Then, in the early 1900s, that position temporarily changed. This was a huge shock to Koreans, a shock to Japan, which always called and despised as "small people."
The popping swollen 40 years from the '50s to '90s, out of long history in East Asia, were only the periods Japan was more prosperous than Korea, the period when huge American capitals poured into Japan thanks to Korean war. Both countries are now returning to the original level of where they were... and will continue!
Hi Maria and Olivia.. you girls look fantastic! (Best way to find the best piece of Korea is when you get sick and experience medical service anywhere at the local hospital..;) Enjoy and safe travel here. 💕
Hi! Thank you for your kind words 🥰 haha I think we’ll try to stay away from the hospitals 😝 Is the hospital care really good or you’re being sarcastic? We are loving Korea! 😍 each day we spent here made us love the country even more.
@MariaOliviaTravel Hi there.., for sure you won't need to, but I was really pointing how great the full medical service and process are in SK. They are impossibly fast and cheap,also top quality for sure.
They definitely do! So delicious 😋 Especially as Italian-French you know what good food tastes like. We are visiting the Alsatian region of France in a few days😍So excited for more good food. Thank you for your kind words 🥰
A large number of American brands or products do not mean that "Koreans were culturally subordinated to the United States." The only country they interact with the most is the United States. Korea has a history of 5,000 years of civilization. Korea has taught Japan politics and culture for thousands of years, with the current king of Japan also from Baekje, an ancient Korean country You shouldn't think of Korean culture and history as a subclass of Japan or the United States, just because they went through the colony in 1905-1945.
I guess I didn’t expand on what I meant when we talked about American brands. The reason I brought up the annexation of Korea from Japan and the United States involvement was in regard to the separation of the North and South. When the Soviet Union and the United States offered “to help” Korea by temporarily dividing the country into two, to prevent the Korean War, which ended up happening anyway. Which is why I said “I would think they (Koreans) wouldn’t like them (Americans)” Since the U.S. has the habit of getting involved in foreign affairs “to help” but it’s always for self interest and they almost never make the situation better. We are well aware of the long, rich history Korea has and never think of them as subclass 😊 The opposite in fact! ❤️ Much love for Korea and its culture 🇰🇷
I’ve never tasted Korean food but it looks fabulous,, those pastries though 👌 I’d have to hit a Korean gym haha I wouldn’t stop eating. Olivia with the alcohol haha classic, I love pickled anything so those peanuts would be for me 😋😋😋😋 Maria with the chorro hahaha you two are funny, great video ladies it looks like you’re both having a blast ✌️✌️
Haha definitely agree Christiana, gym almost daily would be necessary if we lived in Seoul. Is it 2100 yet? So we can teleport some pickled peanuts to you. You would probably love them, if you love pickled foods 😋 As always thank you for your kind words 🥰
Thank you for preparing such a wonderful video for us. I teach university students at Myongji University, located in Gyeonggi-do, near Seoul. If you ever have the chance to visit Gyeonggi-do, please do visit our university. I would be delighted to give you a tour of our campus and enjoy a meal with you at our campus cafeteria. 😃🥰
Hello! Thank you for such kind words and for watching 🤗 We really wanted to visit Gyeonggi, but unfortunately didn’t have enough time on this trip. When we return, we will definitely reach out and would love a tour and to meet you! All the best ❤️
I see these scenes every day, but watching videos where foreigners film and introduce them makes them feel fresh and interesting. Thank you for showing me things that even I, as a local, didn't know about or experience. I always support you💖(translator)
The bakery looks absolutely amazing and seemingly offers so many options. I'm not a big fan of BBQ as I don't eat meat and I don't eat anything that even touches meat. I do love vegetarian gyoza.
Wow thank you 🙏❤️ we’ll save the money and add it to our budget for the next trip to Korea. We are definitely coming back, we fell in love with your country 😍
오래전부터 한국인들은 음식을 맛있게 먹기위해 양념을 발달시켰고, 음식을 오래 보관하고 먹으려고, 발효시켜 먹었어요. 그래서 한식은 건강에 좋습니다. 그리고 한국의 지질구조가 화강암기반 이기 때문에 물이 깨끗하고, 석회성분이 없습니다. 음식에서 물이 정말 중요한데 한국은 물맛이 아주 좋아요. 맛있는 식당은 수돗물안쓰고 산속깊은곳에서 솓아오르는 광천수를 베이스로 요리를 해버리면, 음식맛이 또다른 차원으로 가버립니다. 샤워할때보면 비누도 잘풀려지고 감고나서도 머리가 푸석거리지 않아요.
Well....everything in korea is way too much expensive. The strange thing is koreans perfer expensive things to show others that they are affordable even if they are not. So every shops try to raise price .
한국이 미국영향을 많이 받고있는건 역사적인 이유가 있어요 우리가 일본식민지로 있을때 일본에게서 해방시켜준 나라가 미국이고 6.25전쟁을 일으킨 러시아 중국 북한에 의해 공산화 될뻔한걸 구제해준 나라도 바로 미국이죠 그래서 지금 미국과 한국은 다른 어떤 국가보다 가깝고 끈끈하답니다

That’s really good, I did not know that 😊
The Koreans know how to cook their meat. I’m Italian-French, and I love their unique seasoning and flavors. Love your video btw.
They definitely do! So delicious 😋 Especially as Italian-French you know what good food tastes like. We are visiting the Alsatian region of France in a few days😍So excited for more good food. Thank you for your kind words 🥰
@@MariaOliviaTravel Brilliant. You’ll love the wine country of France. 🇫🇷
@@IsabelleSt.Pierre-q2n we’re counting down the days 😍
in Korea , you have to go out at night .
The nights in Korea are absolutely safe.
Definitely! In fact Olivia and I were constantly discussing how safe it felt walking even at night. I don’t think we’ve ever felt safer 🥰

Korean wraps should be eaten in one bite!
We didn’t know that. Thank you for the advice 😊

멋진 여행으로 좋은 기억을 담았으면 좋겠습니다. 건강하고 행복하세요~ ^^
Thank you! We had an amazing time and can’t wait to be back one day soon 😍🤩
한국에서 먹는 방송(먹방) 찍으셔도 잘되실듯요!! 너무 맛있게 보이게 먹어서 행복합니다.
Haha we i don’t know if we could eat so much food to create a mukbang 😝 but had so much fun eating all this delicious food! 😋😋
홍대에서고깃집에서먹은샐러드는대파를채썬 파샐러드입니다.대파,오이,당근등으로 참기름,간장,식초,고추가루로무친샐러드로 고기먹을때 곁들이는 샐러드입니다.거의얇게먹는 한우우삼겹,돼지삼겹살,오겹살등이있습니다.길거리음식대부분이홍대에서나왔다고해도과언은아닙니다.
Ah thank you so much for information! 🥰 I still dream about that pork belly sometimes 🤤🤤😍😍
U guys are making me so hungry now. I should go to LA and do the same now ❤
Haha it was delicious! Hope you got to eat some Korean food too 🤗
Enjoy 😉 ladies.
Thank you Mike 🥰

Seoul is more fun after sunset.
Yes! We definitely figured that out 😁🎉 such a fun city 🥰

That’s very interesting! Thank your for sharing 🥰 The Korean bottled water we had was very delicious indeed 👌❤️
You have to eat lettuce wrap at once
너무 이쁘다^^
Such a beautiful country 🥰
Enjoy local hospitals too for health check and maybe Hanbang therapy as well, it will not cost damn high!
That’s really good to know 😊 we will keep that in mind for our next visit. We are definitely coming back to Korea ❤️
땅콩조림은 밥이랑같이 먹는 반찬 입니다

마스크를 쓰는 외국인, 특이한데
The pollution that day was really bad so we wore masks for the first half of the day 😷 dust from Mongolia’s desert
즐거운 시간 보내세요
Thank you! 😊🙏 We already can’t wait to come back
외국인들이 삼겹살 좋아하니 뿌듯하다
Haha it was so good 🤤🤤🤤 I dream about that pork belly very often 😍😍 such good food!
언제적 영상이냐
It was filmed end of March, beginning of April 😊
썸에일 오른쪽 분 순간 바르뎀인줄 ㅋ
Haha image if it was and we just didn’t notice 😝🤩
썸넬보고 개그우먼 이은형인줄ㅋㅋㅋ너무 닮아서 깜짝놀랐네
한국이 미국영향을 많이 받고있는건 역사적인 이유가 있어요
우리가 일본식민지로 있을때 일본에게서 해방시켜준 나라가 미국이고 6.25전쟁을 일으킨 러시아 중국 북한에 의해 공산화 될뻔한걸 구제해준 나라도 바로 미국이죠
그래서 지금 미국과 한국은 다른 어떤 국가보다 가깝고 끈끈하답니다
go trump!
환영합니다
Thank you 🥰
Never !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Never !!!!!!!!!! cut your ssam. Put it all in your mouth in one bite.
