Korea can only farm for half of a year so Korean's staple diet was mainly preserved veggie foods and fish/seafood hence there's so many veggie pickles & seafood varieties. Koreans also have huge variety of meat cuisine, there's 80 different types of egg dishes (using just egg ^ limited ingredients.
I love Korean food from my first bite and I now eat korean-style meals at home with soup rice kimchi and other banchan and appreciate and adore what I eat. I only cook authentic Korean food.
This was a magnificent video - I am sad I don't speak Korean and I am sad I am not in Korea right now making a restaurant reservation. I console myself that I will soon be off to the Korean grocery store to try my humble hand at some Korean cooking.
i really love the 'ahjumma' who make the bean paste. its fascinating n her passion was beyond. on top of that she can play the music instrument gracefully. shes amazing
Why don't people just enjoy the video & there is no need to argue to each other! History is history! Every culture have their own stories & unique of it. If you are passion about food, travel & history, you should enjoy all video w/a peaceful mind & stress free. Try it & you will live longer & wrinkle free.
Watching several of these asian food history videos lately, the one thing that stands out the most compared to western food, besides the higher skills, is that they seem to actually care about promoting health benefits! Even their "fast foods" have some sort of health promoting qualities! It's so different than what I'm use to, and it's really attracting me to it. These qualities aren't even represented in the westernied asian foods here in North America, or at least at the food preperations places I've visited. Here we have a heavy theme of "buyer beware", which is one of the things that makes me loose faith in capatalism.
does anyone know where you can find full episodes of this show other than japan or malaysia? i really want to watch the thailand, vietnam and china episodes but the full episodes aren't on youtube.
In Japan, we have Vegetable song, Meat song, Fish song, and a Mushroom song. They are market stimulators, played at the stores. I suspect Kimchi song is of that variety as well.
It just a part of korean cuisine. Basically, korean foods are based on three important things are 장(jang),김치(kimchi),젓갈(jeut-gal) This movie misses 젓갈.
Traslation states that soy bean came from manchuria. But they failed to understand that manchuria was part of korea long ago and the people (koreans) there brought soy to the land which is called korea now. This also means that soy sauce was originally made by the ancient koreans. Discovery channel failed to understand that people lived in early manchuria were infact koreans. Now that manchuria is part of china discovert channel thinks soy and soy sauce came from china. One other thing that discovery channel failed to interpret correctly in the earlier part of this film is that they called "chinese doctor". Infact, the kimchi competition-er should have been called "korean herbal doctor".
Sorry, but Manchuria was never part of Korea nor were they Koreans in any form. They were largely Jurchen peoples of the Tungusic persuasion, ethnic Manchu who came from that region. Furthermore, soy sauce was never "originally" made by ancient Koreans. We can place with absolute certainty through historic and scientific means its original invention by the Chinese in the 2nd Century BCE.
bada bing That was the Korean Peninsula. Manchu was Northern China bordering Russia. Two different geographic locations. In fact, there are studies indicating that Koreans themselves may have possible Manchu origin. (I'm just repeating the stuff from my anthropology texts. These aren't my opinions). You are entitled to your own opinions not your own facts. --- I can't forcibly change your mind because that's just wrong even if I have the weight of evidence in mountains at my back, even if it as easy as *looking at a map*.
yes,lelang was only part prat of Korea,but the south(Samhan)삼한 are original ruled by Chinese. the first ruler are lineal descendant of jizi(箕子,기자)and his name is 箕准(긔준)
omg my mind is blown lol that is such a smart way to get officials to care about what's going on with the people lol Food quality lol I wish that would be useful today.
In my iPhone5 map, it clearly indicates SEA of JAPAN. I bet you are living in another planet ? and it also indicates TAKESHIMA, but there is no islands named Dokdo??
Even though I'm a Korean, I don't like how we are arguing the name of the sea. Japan can might as well argue it is not East sea, since it's on their west side. You see the similarity with Korean arguing why it shouldn't be the Sea of Japan? We are just running around circle as you can see. What we should be doing is, we should pursue for a new name that both side can agree on. Or else, the argument will run forever.
No, it is not 'fact'. The International Hydrographic Organization recognized that the only official name for this particular sea is the 'Sea of Japan'; I'm guessing most likely attaining this title early on due to the adoption of Westernization/globalization within Japan in the 17th - 19th centuries. It is referred to as the 'East Sea' within South Korea, and 'East Sea of Korea' within North Korea. I myself stand neutral on its name, but please do not present something as 'fact' when it is not.
scholars today refute that claim anyway, we don't know if he was Chinese, modern Koreans are genetically different from modern Chinese. Modern Chinese cultures are influenced by Mongol, Manchu, Cultural influences goes reverse now, Chinese now follows Korean culture.
Korean already know about that. but, China had never ruled the all Korea. Lelang was only part of Korea. and China also was heavily influenced by Mongolian, Manchurian. and Korean traditional music is quite different from Chinese
Depending from what period of chinese music! Many of the chinese elements were borrowed from ancient Tang and Song and not the late Ming and Qing Dynasty. In Short, to rediscover ancient chinese culture , if is sometimes better to go Korea or Japan !
Korean Culture is heavily influenced by Chinese culture for thousands of years. Korea has been part of China for many times and many commanderies were set up there - namely, the most famous two, Lelang 樂郎 and Xuantu 玄菟. So no surprise there. Their music is also heavily influenced or borrowed from Chinese
I don't why people should be a shame to eat dogs. I don't see anything wrong with it as long as it's not someone's pet. And no, I have never eaten a dog but would try it, if there was a restaurant that can cook and make it taste delicious. Pigs are just as smart as a dog and they are just like dogs too. So people should get over it.
That can't be right. Should be 4th I think. China, Japan and India. India has lots of poverty but as a whole country, it should be bigger still. Unless I'm wrong of cos.
어가 라틴어의 어미변화체계를 더 잘 보존하고 있는 것처럼. 하지만 한자는 한자, 한국 고유어는 고유어, 님의 말씀은 마치 타갈로그어에 중세 스페인어 단어가 많이 섞여있다고 필리핀사람들이 정통 스페인인이라고 얘기하는 상황이군요. 아~~주 외람되지만 님의 질문은 말 그대로 愚問입니다.
And you missed cosmetic surgery lol. They are not really proud of themself. Otherwise they would not change their appearance so much and they have no much real own identity. They behave & think very emotionally only.
liquidpersuasion . Do not worry , our ancestors have not used gloves for centuries for cooking. And the human has still able to prosper. it not worst that the processed food that de eat today!
I love Korean food, but Im sick of Koreans saying that everything is good for your health...thats a bunch of crap...my mom used to tell me kimchi is the reason Koreans dont get cancer
한국의 한방의학은 기본적으로 중국에서 전래했습니다. 한국적인 변용은 겪었지만 뿌리는 중국에 있어요. quite differnt지만 totally differnt는 아니에요. 한의대에서 배우는 기본 과정 중에 중국의서학습이 꼭 들어갑니다. 잘못된 지식 외국인들에게 유포하지 않으셨으면 좋겠네요. 한국에 대한 이미지 나빠집니다.
thanks to Dae Jang Geum, that made me love south korea and I love visiting their country so much and same on their food.hayy. saranghe korea.
⚘

Who wrote this? Koreans aren't rediscovering anything. They've always eaten awesome food and have always been proud of their food.
Agreed.
Really interesting! Loved it! Time to try some korean cuisine!
I love Korean food from my first bite and I now eat korean-style meals at home with soup rice kimchi and other banchan and appreciate and adore what I eat. I only cook authentic Korean food.

JoachimderZweite Try H-Mart! The most popular Korean market in the USA

Yum! I love Korean food :)
This makes me drool! Every Asian Cuisine has a different taste and style but all are very delicious with its uniqueness.
I am so hungry while watching this video. Korean traditional food looks delicious and healthy
When i watch these amazing shows about Koreans, makes me feel proud to be a South Korean :). Korean food is AMAZING!
GREAT post... Thanks for the tantalizing vid.
Such a great job!
Lived in Korea seven years. Food is delicious. Delicious.

Man Kimchi gives me the runs, that's why I love it, goes right out. cleans everything nicely on its ways.

Look into where goguryo was. They are our ancestors. Even before that, gojoson is our ancestors.

Did u look into gojosun?
pls upload for culinary asia india episode also
I'm German and love spicy food. So Kim chi is spicy sauerkraut. Delicious

Korea looks awesome!.. well South Korea
I'm truly proud of my fellow Koreans
Introduction to Korean Food-Discovery channel documentary -2011
Why have Korean Subtitles on Discovery Channel? In Thailand, Discovery Channel don't have Thai Subtitles.
Yes! Kimchi! And jewels in the palace is amazing! I remember everyday when i came home from school, me and my family would start watching it :)
i'm just curious why China isn't included in this series? Surely there's alot of interesting foods and cuisines to be explored there
I seem to forget my roots. Ive fallen in love to korean dish because of my chef idol Jang geum!!!
omg my mind is blown lol that is such a smart way to get officials to care about what's going on with the people lol Food quality lol I wish that would be useful today.
The woman at the start is my aunt my actual aunt haha
Jongwoo Han
Nobody cares
You eat very well, don't you? lol
man this documentary is making me so hungry.
Didn't u spot many posters that were written in Chinese too? :P
Do research online or go to Korea and watch them do it in person.
Man...i wish i can get some ginseng that easily here...;-; and try some ginseng chicken soup
KOREAN CUISINE IS THE BEST! :D
wish i could eat it, no korean food place where i live :'(
I prefer the fermented one over the fresh ones
holy smokes you look good haha. kimchi magic :P?
i lol'ed too
The women in Korea seem super cool . The lady playing the cello to her bean paste was tip of the iceberg :)
so is japan, japan has heavy cultural/technological influence from Korea and China. Japan even paid tribute to Chinese rulers for many centuries.
All the information was correct except, ginseng chicken soup does not have water chestnuts in them, it is just chestnuts.
probably means east asia
Seoul South Korea! My Birth City and Country!
So for all those people out there who dislike fermented (sour) kimchi - Taste it freshly made and then make your decision :D
Sooooo hungry -.-
The Koguryeo Empire
In my iPhone5 map, it clearly indicates SEA of JAPAN. I bet you are living in another planet ? and it also indicates TAKESHIMA, but there is no islands named Dokdo??
kimchi wow ! ok.
Playing violin to soybean paste lol
@hellowpaprika i know... =( ouch!
Even though I'm a Korean, I don't like how we are arguing the name of the sea. Japan can might as well argue it is not East sea, since it's on their west side. You see the similarity with Korean arguing why it shouldn't be the Sea of Japan? We are just running around circle as you can see.
What we should be doing is, we should pursue for a new name that both side can agree on. Or else, the argument will run forever.
interesting country
korean food is healthy
Sea of korea
Yep and even Japanese. Japanese musics are borrowed from ancient Koreans as well didn't you know?
i've just had my lunch but when i see this video, makes me hungry again -__-"

된장, 간장은 한국 대표 발효음식이지만 극히 일부분에 불과하다. 수많은 김치와 장류, 술, 생선, 고기까지 발효화되어 만들어진다.
Korean Culture is heavily influenced by Chinese culture for thousands of years. Korea has been part of China for many times and many commanderies were set up there - namely, the most famous two, Lelang 樂郎 and Xuantu 玄菟. So no surprise there. Their music is also heavily influenced or borrowed from Chinese

So people should get over it.
I feel like Korean food is still not as popular as Japanese or Chinese or even Vietnamese cuisine
That can't be right. Should be 4th I think. China, Japan and India. India has lots of poverty but as a whole country, it should be bigger still. Unless I'm wrong of cos.
this is south korea
Nah, it's not Sea of Korea...
Quite different인 것을 quite different라고 했는데 도대체 뭐가 문제인 지 모르겠네요. 자명한 argument인 것을.

한의사가 중국에서 말하는 한의사와는 다른데..... 글자도 다르고, 왜 차이니즈 닥터라고 표기하지????? 이해 안되네.... 뭐 기원은 그쪽이 맞지만, 음식, 풍습, 환경 등이 다 달라서 전혀 다르게 발전한 학문일텐데...
你懂得~囧~
no you got it wrong. samhan had relation/connection to the chinese. stop making stuff up by copy and pasting false information from online
fk yeah kim jong un
Hahahaha and japan says their foods are original but it all derived from China and asian continent

unfortunately, u r wrong. They all know SK is much better. But NK's control is overwelming the NK ppl. They can't though they know.
