Intercultural Life
They didn’t really talk about what Korean food they like and later just said something like, “We like it all”. It is really hard to say what strictly Australian food they like because it’s all British roots anyway. That’s why Han ended up talking about vegemite.
Surprisingly, although Hugh eats more western food than Han, Han is the one who likes vegemite more. I’m not sure his explanation really sells it though…
(This was filmed in January).
This was filmed while in Australia. We are almost at the end of season 1 of Ask Korean Guys!
But since Han is now in Korea for a few weeks, we will be filming season 2!
Make sure you ask your questions now!
Han comes to Korea very soon! If you have a question for the guys now is the time to ask it! If your question wasn’t answered before you can ask again.
While the guys find our interest in furniture weird, I find their lack of interest in furniture weird! There really aren’t that many furniture stores in Korea and they tend to have the same sort of style. Furniture is expensive as well. In comparison to Koreans, Australians are quite obsessed with furniture and organising it and what style a room is – and of course we love renovating. At the house here in Korea there isn’t even furniture to arrange. There is no sofa, no armchairs, no dining room table. The table we eat on is a small one that gets put away after every meal. It’s very different so I can see why my husband thinks it’s funny how much I look at furniture and express admiration for it and day dream about owning a certain piece of furniture.
Australian council pickup is something they were hesitant about at first but now really like it. Yes Han found a NEW computer on the street.
So as the guys said in the video, a lot of young people don’t know how to make kimchi. It’s not always passed down these days. The reason why Sophie and I know how to make kimchi is because we are interested in Korean culture and are keen to preserve these traditions. This is also the reason why we both had traditional Korean weddings whereas most Koreans only have modern weddings.
Everyone has different tastes in kimchi because there are so many different types and different flavours even among the same type. Personally I prefer the taste of just made kimchi but many people like the very strong tasting kimchi that has been fermenting for a while. What type of kimchi do you like?
Fun fact: The boys didn’t actually eat the kimchi in the video because it was late at night and they had just brushed their teeth. They pretended to eat it on camera but it was so sarcastic that we had to cut it out. But it was really nice kimchi!
Some bloopers from recent videos!
Also: As you guys know, Han sometimes pretends to be G-Dragon in our videos due to his resemblance to him. Han and Sophie (and baby Alice) will be visiting Korea soon and we plan on filming a “fashion” video with Han as GD. If you have some ridiculous clothing you’d like “GD” to wear, you can send it to us and we’ll use it in the video! Our address is on the contact page.
What challenges are there living in Australia. And is Han drunk and are they wearing pants? This was filmed while we were in Australia.
This video is a bit late because we were in Seoul for a few days. We are starting to run out of Ask Korean Guys videos that we filmed while in Australia. Oh no. Hugh will have to film some with other Korean guys until Han visits Korea. Will people still watch if Han is not in the video??
The guys talk about problems expressing themselves in English, dreaming in English and if some Koreans date foreigners only to improve their English. And will Han call Hugh “Oppa”?
