- In this episode, we asked our Mexican moms to try Korean food 🇰🇷❤️

They tried the most common and recognized Korean dishes and side dishes including, Tteokbokki, Kimbap, Danmuji, Bulgogi, Naengmyun, Japchae, and Kimchi!
Tteokbokki is a meal made of spicy rice cakes that is also very well-liked as street food. Although kimbap is frequently confused with sushi, its ingredients are fundamentally distinct. There are numerous uses for danmuji, a crunchy, acidic yellow pickled radish. A popular Korean meal made with barbecued beef is called bulgogi. It is a grilled beef meal that has been marinated and can be sweet or savory. It is frequently served with rice or other sides. An all-year-round favorite, naengmyun is a cold broth-based noodle dish that is extremely popular in the summer. A stir-fried noodle dish called japchae contains both meat and vegetables.

i love how two of the moms be giving food critics and the other is just the audience would react 😂 her “that’s a good combo foo” SENT ME. 😂
shes not mexican shes mexican american
@@jordiw913 Chicana, si
🤣 Yeeeeess! “The colors are really…cute…But my whole shabang just said ‘no’”
Certified chola
MF English. Do you speak it ?
As a Korean person, make sure to eat kimchi with rice to mellow out the flavor
Damn that's what I should've done I tried kimchi for the first time and ate it by itself.Lemme tell you the flavor slapped me and I couldn't handle it and spit it out but I do love me some galbitang tho 😋.I'll eat kimchi with some rice next time
Kimchi fried rice with a sunny side egg is bomb one of my favorite dishes
As a Mexican American. Kimchi with tajin is delish!
I put a dollop of kimchi on seaweed squares as a snack. 😋
Only time I ate kimchi was with kimbap
Mexicans and Koreans, we, have a similar taste palette. I introduced my parents to Korean food, and they loved it.
I was literally going to say that.
Same, my dad is a picky eater but actively asks for Korean food.
That's one of the reasons why Mexican-Korean fusion works so well.
If you haven't already (assuming you're Mexican by the way you phrased your comment), I'd suggest introducing your parents to the food of the Philippines (I am biased as someone who is half Filipino). I am curious whether or not the influence of the countries' shared Spanish colonizers have led to similar tastes. My curiosity has been sparked by the realization that during the colonial period one of the main trade routes in the Spanish Empire was between the capitol of the Philippines, Manilla, and Acapulco.
Though just as a heads up, most Filipino food isn't inherently spicy though that depends on the region. Spice can be added but it isn't a main focal point.
No full blooded Korean, I phrased it like that because I regularly julienne kimchi into strips and fry it with thick bacon with a bit of Agave to make Kimchi Tacos, it's borrowing more heavily from the Mexican side. Comes out a bit more spicy than Al Pastor with a strong sweet and sour twist.
The mom who made her daughter jars of kimchi is so sweet! Goals lol!
And I love how she had bulgogi before and was excited about eating it again.
a huevos. If I asked my mom she'd say "go to the korean store, then." 😂
and didn't even try it after all that work!
I honestly love the new mom, she kind of reminds me of my own in some ways
❤️
Which one
@@jesocasu1358
The new one. The woman you know u better not mess with🎉
@@tinytt854 wait which one HAHAHA I only know Lucy 😭
@@tinytt854the lady with the skull tat on her neck ?😅
My parents always shared their homemade Korean food with their customers at their market (predominantly Mexican and Cuban customers). They loved it! In turn, my parents would get tamales, posole, menudo, all kinds of delicious foods. It was a beautiful cultural exchange amongst people whose English weren't that great.
What would they get from.the cubans everything you named is Mexican. Cubans have nothing to do with Mexicans. The video is about Mexicans. Ig no rant po s
It is not that serious, they’re just sharing their experience and the said it was their parents, so they were likely a child when this happened. Maybe they don’t remember the Cuban dishes. In any case, calmate
@@lavender2290It is when non Mexican Hispanics claim Mexican culture simply because they speak Spanish. Cubans have nothing to do with Mexicans or our culture.
@@lavender2290the video is about Mexican food not Hispanic nadie menciono hotos de Cuba.
@@LyknDelToro1Learn how to read. Reading comprehension is everything. You’re pressed because they didn’t get Cuban food? Tell me where it was said they got Cuban food and claimed it was Mexican lol. It’s her story recalling getting Mexican food but also having Cuban customers. Sit down now please
Do a follow up down the line! With Korean fried chicken, savory seafood pancakes, kimchi fried rice, and some snacks like Kkwabaegi and Gim-bugak please.
Now you’re speaking my language! I’m also a fan of sundae (blood sausage)
@@wills.364 ooo that tasty tasty sausage!
Jajangmyeon too
Korean fried chicken is on another level! In my opinion, they have the BEST fried chicken in the world.
Absolutely the seafood pancakes. Besides those (crazy people) who don't like seafood, it is impossible not to love like mad!
As a Mexican Mom she's acting like she isn't going to serve up the hottest caldo to ever exist during Summer @6:27 🤣🤣
LMAOOO
REAL
Fr but now I get why. It’s too hot to cook in the summertime. So, by just putting all the ingredients in a pot and walking away from the hot kitchen then coming back to the soup being done is the best for moms that are in charge of feeding the whole household. And not staying in the kitchen too long with the summer heat 😂
I just ate caldo tlalpeño and it was hot as hell outside. no regrets.
“Good combo foo!” I love her 😂❤
Looks like I’m not the only one 😂
My absolute favorite, I could hang out with her.
She is so gangsta!
Lmao she said “it looks cute” haha … I love that all the mommas loved the food and tried. Viva Mexico 🇲🇽 ❤
My Mexican mom loves how Korean food is laid out on their own little side dishes, like every ingredient is treats as special. She thinks it makes it look beautiful, colorful and flavorful because there’s a bit of vinegar, salt, spicy and sweet depending on what side dish you grab from.
I love the mama with glasses! she's so kind. ^.^
Has anyone here ever tried "Korean-Mexican" fusion? It's supposed to be really big in California and Texas. I wanna try it! Bulgogi tacos and burritos sound LIT.
We did that in the late 80s in Cali
Texan here. Houston a lot of Korean-Mex restaurants popping up. Bulgogi tacos, Kimchi enchiladas, and more. Yum.
It’s real common in California
Lived in california my whole life and never heard of it…
It's really good! Highly recommend the Kogi truck!
I’ve worked with Mexicans at our Korean restaurant for over 10 years and for lunch (for ourselves) we eat Mexican Korean fusion. It just happened like that over ten years of our Korean family and Mexican work familia cooking together. We should put it on the menu.
In LA, Mexicans love them some Korean Barbecue. A lot of times, they bring tortillas for the meat!
Ceci is becoming one of my favorites with Xotchil, Martha, Lucy and Lucy's mom. Reminds me of my mom and tias.❤
Who is lucy mom???
@@dalispelayo89 I believe her name is Alicia, very sweet lady. I just couldn't remember her name. She pops up here and there. I remember Lucy saying her mom was a hundred years-old and her mom got the chancla. 😆
Speaking offff where is Xotchil!!!!!
@@nickbcs58 I'm sure she's taking a break but we need Xotchil back. She tells it like it is, like my tia. No Anda con chingaderas! 🤣
I forgot to add Susana too!! I dont want to forget her. Like I said, they remind me of my tias and mom. The ladies are fun to watch. 💚🤍❤
I've always felt Mexicans and Koreans have very similar palates. From my experience, Korean immigrants can be kind of picky with food and prefer to eat only Korean food but my mom absolutely loves Mexican food.
For those who didn't like kimchi when they tried it like these moms, I highly recommend you try it fresh when you get a chance. I'm willing to bet you'll change your mind. I've converted many friends and co workers by letting them try some of my mom's homemade fresh kimchi.
I’m a Latino guy. The first time I tried kimchi, I didn’t like it. They gave it to me just by itself. It was too much. Then I had it with rice and my life was changed forever. I think my favorite thing in the whole wide world when it comes to kimchi is the kimchi stew with the meat and sausage. Kimchee chigen, I think it’s called. That stuff is amazing in the winter. I could eat it every day. So good!
Mexican food feels less heavy than American food. Cilantro can really throw some Koreans (and anyone genetically predisposed to not liking it) off though. We regularly cook Mexican food and the Mexican meat market butchers cut ribs the same way. I actually like it better than a lot of Korean restaurants now. It seems Korean food has evolved to be more sweet than when I grew up there. There's also been a weird fascination with cheese and corn for a while now.
As a Korean American, this warms my heart to watch ❤ especially as I LOVE Mexican food 🎉
Love how open minded they are
I love how accepting and respectful they are !
My Mexican mother, as well as my family, as we tried Kimchi Fried Rice, at a Korean restaurant, and we loved it so much, we all felt like actual Koreans at heart, despite not being Korean at all!
Lol that one mama that said she wanted ketchup with her Kimbap had my grandma turn her head towards me real fast.
As a Korean, Kimchi is a side dish... you eat it with rice and other things to mellow out the strength of flavor. If you've ever tried it alone and didn't like it, or thought it was too strong... try it with rice
My sister makes kimchi in my house! we are mexican, and I serve the kimchi with my foods like rice, or with eggs I eat at breakfast! I really like it! I’m looking forward to look more ways to eat kimchi
@@xXxsalemxXxGreat for you man! Keep it up
Ah the kimchi they tried must've been very fermented. I'm Korean and I'd rather eat fresher kimchi, but my relatives would say otherwise lol. It would be fun if you could have everyone try Korean snacks or ice cream next!!
melona bars!
Fresh kimchi is the best!
Freshly made kimchi with slices of steamed pork belly.
I was thinking the same thing, that the kimchi must've been fermented a long time. I'm Korean so I'm used to all kinds of levels of fermented kimchi. But if they've never tried it before, I would have started with fresh kimchi, as sour kimchi is more of an acquired taste.
@@deedrole5296 those taste like they're made of water instead of milk
They did an amazing job describing the flavor of these foods! I am so impressed.
Being Korean, I like that they're trying food from around the world.
It's good to get a fresh perspective on our food
Yo! This is dope to see. Koreans love mexican food and it warms my soul to see the homies like our food.
I'm Mexican and my husband is Korean, and let me tell you we have the best dinners ever, always mixing it up, he really loves Mexican food and i really love Korean food, a win win
I lived in LA for 17 years and worked with Koreans. When we needed to order catering for meetings, events, etc you know what they wanted? MEXICAN food, not KOREAN. They all said they could eat Mexican food every damn day. Mexican/Korean fusion is a "good combo foo". Thank you Roy Choi for your contribution to this cuisine:)
Ok ngl I was triggered when she asked for ketchup and butter on gimbab, but I love how she embraced it overall! Also the lady with the glasses knows what’s up. No Korean eats this stuff solo. It’s a table full of side dishes and entrees with your own bowl of rice and u create different flavors in your mouth with different combinations. She was like where’s my danmuji with my bulgogi? 👏❤😊
Lol you took the words right out of my mouth!!
She loves ketchup with everything🤣🤣
❤
Girl yes, lol, I was mad they gave em straight up sour kimchi with no rice or with the bulgogi at least, don't turn em off like that from jump, actually when u introduce kimchi u should cook it... my Mexican/american friends love it all.
Thats not far off from what my family does with day old kimbap. Dip it in an egg wash and pan fry it. Have it with ketchup and you're good
I LOVE japchae! Soo good! There is a large Korean community in the international school where I teach in Mexico and one of the moms made japchae for Teacher Appreciation Day a couple years ago. It is hands down my favorite Korean dish.
I've had a Korean barbecue before, and it was an amazing experience. Hope you had fun trying Korean food, MaMah!
Our Mamás loved trying it!🥰
I could probably eat the BBQ but the dishes they sampled today, I doubt it😁
@@GlobalAdventurer some of the things they ate aren’t too bad. I remember having kimchi once and I think it’s pretty good. Especially for those that like spicy things. I do recommend you try some of these 😁🙂
@@phoenix2.020 I've tried kimchi because I was looking for an easy to eat probiotic but I threw it away because it was too hot/sour🤢 I don't like sushi or any of that kind of food. Not into Chinese food either. The only thing I could tolerate even close to Asian type food is the food in Nepal.
@@GlobalAdventurer yeah to be honest, I like mostly Southern Asian cuisine myself too. I do like Chinese food, and some foods in East Asia like ramen, but for the most part my favorite Asian food is Southern Asia (like India, Pakistan, and Bangladesh) and Western Asia (Middle East). I’d like to try some Northern Asian food as well. And yeah with East Asia, I too like very limited things there. The barbecues are nice though 😋😋
I'm latina and Korean food is my favorite.i love it!!!I grew up eating Korean food since my dad was a security guard for a parking lot of a restaurant called the corner place in LA.since then I discovered more and more Korean foods❤
Korean barbecue is so good with a side of kimchi..
I Love them trying food around the world !
I really liked the new mom and how she enjoyed everything. She didn't hold back lol
Naengmyeon is just one of those dishes you got to try in the restaurant. It's just hits different.
You guys should do more of this, trying diff types of food! Love it 💕
I love all these moms. They all seem like ladies I'd love to be around!
I live in Los Angeles and here the many Korean restaurants are Filled with Mexican American families, gobbling down Korean BBQ. It is a familiar and beloved cuisine for them.
You guys have to serve the foods the way they're supposed to be eaten, kimchi and danmuji are pickles you eat as sides with a main meal like noodles or rice. Not by themselves, unless that's absolutely all you have.
lol when I was preggo I ate a whole thing of kimchi by itself.
Para comer Kimchi las primeras veces mezclenlo con arroz ooo ponganlo arriba del kimbap y luego ya lo van a necesitar !!!! Y hasta solito se lo van a comer :) ✨✨✨
I love these mums. They really give mexican people a good rep.
thank you mexican mommies for the rave reviews....love a korean mommy!💕💕💕💕💕
More to come!❤️
Bring these ladies back! They were so adorable & funny.
The moms were all so gracious and enjoyable to watch
I'm neither Korean nor Mexican, and I love both cuisines. The ladies are really nice. Surprised that they found bulgogi sweet ? And god ! I love kimchi ! I have it at least 2x a week. But, thanks for the video. Let's all taste different foods 😋
I absolutely love how polite and respectful they are!
I miss Marta and Xochil 😢
Food from a strange country may not suit your taste, but these people rate it well. Your attitude toward other countries' food is great. 👍♥️
I think Korean and Mexican cuisines work so well with each other. I love all the fusion food items that are out there. And I love the idea of the damuji in a torta!
It's always fun watching people try kimchi for the first time because of the variety of reactions 😂
Mexican-Korean fusion foods are amazing, I buy my burritos from an establishment like this, they use kimichi fried rice in their burritos
That sounds amazing 🤤
Im not even Mexican but my best friends mom has been apart of my life and watching these moms just feel like home and humorous ❤
8:49 😂😂 I love how she’s trying to be so nice 🫶🏽🫶🏽🫶🏽
I've been searching everywhere for someone to describe how ttetbokki tastes like and thankfully our dear mamás did the job ❤
OMG! Then she made a taco with the bulgogi and danmuji! 🤤
The mom with the cool ass neck tattoo crunch sounds give me asmr and I usually hate crunching but it’s makes it seem delicious. 🤤
This is the content that makes me emotional fr 😂 food brings everyone together, its truly the universal love language
That one mom definitely gets it. Cold soups are great to beat the heat of the summer.
You chose all the right food to introduce. Some reaction channels choose dishes that even us koreans don't often eat.
I remember trying kimchi at a Korean Festival in Houston, and it was so spicy I struggled to eat it. My eyes were 💦 A Korean lady looked at me and said “Damn, you’re brave not to pair it with meat or rice because we Koreans don’t even eat spicy kimchi by itself.” After that I learned. I love kimchi 😂😂
I'm not Korean, but I love eating kimchi alone. It has to be quite fresh kimchi, though, like during preparing it I snack on some or when it's up to few days old. Then I like it raw alone as snack or as one of toppings on open sandwiches (where I live open sandwiches are default type of sandwich and are eaten for breakfast and supper, only dinner is cooked and lunch is called second breakfast here, so also not cooked, but not everyone eats that, it depends on one's day schedule) and then as ramen / ramyun topping, finally when it's old and really sour, I make kimchi jjigae aka kimchi stew with it or other types of cooked meals. The recipe for kimchi I'm sticking to is by Maangchi, so it's authentic, I think.
😂😂😂 Ketchup mom is my fav!
I really like the Mexican moms. They really seem to appreciate the different cultures food.
This is such wholesome content. I could watch this all day 😂💜
Love these moms. ❤
Is the lady of the eyebrow prank in this!? 😮 I LOVE HER 😍
In CDMX we have pequeño seúl 40k koreans live there and thats the main language in that neighborhood in *Mexico city* and you just showed all of my favorite foods
Bruh I'm not Mexican but I want to hug each of these mom's 😭 such sweet ladies
The mom in the white shirt with polka dots is always my favorite. She seems like a kind woman.
Yum, it all looks so good!
That crunch though 🤤
These ladies are amazing. Wish them nothing but the best in life :)
I’ve been Waiting for a Korean food vid :D
Should have used your tteokbokki sauce on your Kimbop cause it's what a lot of people use on it. I've seen a lot of people eat them together and use that sauce on it...so she wasn't far off saying it needed ketchup! LOL 🤣
I love these ladies!
As a Mexican I love Korean food my hubby and I are regulars at our local Korean restaurant
I like these together. 3 very authentic personalities! ❤❤❤
This made my mouth water!! 😊
Would you try Korean food? 😊🇰🇷
I've tried it before, and I loved it!
Absolutely! Looks delicious. great job man mah!
My husband is half Korean so we eat Korean food often lol I even learned to make some of the dishes .
Korean food is amazing
I have, but not the most authentic stuff. Am waiting to try a place about 40 minutes from me that has the good fried chicken, etc
I love the kimchi from Whole Foods, it’s super lemony they might like that one better. It might not be the authentic kimchi but it’s super good if you like lemony things
I love that they tried Korean food! Next time have them taste cucumber kimchi, so delicious
I absolutely LOVE this! 🥰
Asian-Mexican fusion🤤
Korean food is awesome. I have a friend who is Korean and she always makes the best snacks when I visit. Japchae is a definite favorite, and my favorite side dishes are the tiny fried anchovies with garlic, peanuts, and honey, and the gochujang fried dried squid. SO good!
I love how open they are. I’d bet all these women are seasoned cooks in their own right and are open to experimenting with different flavors. Fun lot ❤
As a Korean, the kimchi is known as a side dish for a reason. Eat the kimchi with bulbogi or galbi and it totally changes everything! Also there are so many different types of kimbap that I don’t even like certain ones.
these ladies are such stars!
I grew up calling Japchae, glass noodles. It was one of my favourite as a kid. I didn't even know the proper name until I was an adult, lol. I was always taught glass noodles. When I used to eat kimchi as a kid, we used to have a glass of water and dip the kimchi in the water before eating it. It took away some of the heat. I loved mixing the bulgogi juice you got when cooking the meat and then mixing that with your rice. OMG!!! So Delicious. They should have gotten them to try Gochochung too. I love taking Gochochung and mixing it all into your rice. The heat is so good and sometimes I would take a scoop of that mixed rice and take a plain piece of bread and put a dollop on the bread, fold it, and eat it.
I never had Korean food but I heard of a couple like Kimchi and Bulgogi
“My whole shabang just said no” 😂😂
I love your videos keep making them
Glad you like them! ❤️
My mom is obsessed with kimchi. She literally eats so much of it haha
if you do a part 2 you should make them try jjajangmyeon and some kind of stew :)
I love how much they enjoyed the korean food 🎉❤
Kimchi can taste so different depending on ingredient ratios and if its fresh, fermented or reallllly fermented. Ive had good napa cabbage kimchi and other napa cabbage kimchi I did not like. It varies a lot. Ive had more Ive tried that I didnt like or care for but when you come across a few that are really good, oh my goodness its great
I knew they’d love it 🥰 I love kimchi bap, bibimguksu, oisobagi, dakjim, kimchijeon, soondubu jiggae and kongnamulbap cooked inside Kabocha squash! Delicious.
I NEED to try kimbap. It actually looks so good
I love foreigners who are raised with flavours and spices like out beloved mexicans. You can tell their comment on food are actually reasonable and analytical that they’re really tasting. Unlike some Americans with limited vocab and taste when it comes to food.
I make Korean food for my Mexican mom and she loves it now! ❤
*5:02** Realest reaction right there!* 😂
I like it when other people from different cultures enjoy our food.
