I am not a big shopper, but I love grocery shopping. I would love to see more videos like this. I like how you are supporting brick and mortar grocery stores.
I like that you two seem like you're best friends. **First-time viewer.
They've been together for about 12 years. They are true soul mates and probably my favourite couple on youtube:).
Confession time... Love when y'all go grocery shopping. It helps me more than you know in picking up things to try in my local Korean grocery. A good many of the products are labeled only in Korean and it has saved me so much time over using Google lens with translate. Thanks! Great video as always.
21:19 BEEMO!!! He's such a cute boy, how he's reaching for the fried chicken 😭💔
🥹🐾🍗
The both of you going shopping and happily perusing the aisles in a supermarket looks so wholesome.. 🫠🥰
☺️🥰
My favorite reminder that it's Sunday. 👏👏 happy Easter Sunday to those who celebrate.
Happy Easter! 🐰
Beemo at the end going for that fried chicken just had me laughing 🤣
The desperation 😅
I love watching your videos and being able to relate to you guys in some way. Like, sometimes when I’m on my lunch break and watching your videos (as I so often do) we may be eating the same thing or feeling the same way. But todayyyyy I learned that we are all scaredy cats haha I don’t like to watch scary movies but my mom does so I only watch them with her. Love you guys. I ALSO LOVE HEARING SARA SPEAK KOREAN AHHHHH
Hahaah, glad we’re not alone! 😂
This was sooo helpful. One of my homeworks (learning Korean, at Level 1A) was to write down what you buy at a grocery store (마트) and how much they are, so I got inspiration from your video, hahha 😄. Thank you! Plus, Beemo at the end was so cute trying to grab a piece of chicken! 😍😆
Awww, so glad to hear it was helpful! 😊
There's a really interesting book from the 80's called "The Life and Hard Times of a Korean Shaman" based on interviews between an American anthropologist and a Korean shaman woman who talked about her life and living through the war. As a woman it's sometimes hard to read because of how deeply sexist her upbringing was, but it's still a really fascinating and valuable perspective since the cultural/spiritual landscape has continued to change since then.
WOAH, this sounds fascinating! Thanks for the recommendation-I’ve got to look into this!
@@2hearts1seoulthe author has another book called 'Shamans, Housewives, and Other Restless Spirits' that's a broader look at women in Korean spiritual life (from the 80s again), but I haven't read that one. :) On the book channel you could do a whole series on books about women in Korea, I know I'd love that!
Seoul looks beautiful in the spring. Wow the grocery store is making me hungry, whole section of mandu, love this!
This was such a cute vlog. Loved the part in the giant supermarket ❤
I will have to catch that movie! I love seeing examples of mythology and mysticism in different cultures. ❤
Great to see another of your vlogs while on location. Sadly, leaving Seoul on Wednesday but I'll continue to remind myself every Sunday what a great place it is (as is S Korea an amazing country). Great to see Beemo enjoying life and your food! Many thanks. 👍🇰🇷😊
Cucumber kimchi is my favorite, too! That chicken at the end looked sooooo good, yum! The prices on the cheese are the same in the states, well, in New Hampshire anyway. Take care!
This vlog was so nice 🥹 really enjoy the mundane but new experiences!!
Physical 100 series 2 is so good. and certainly a feast for onnes eyes LOL. Korea is just so good at making such programmes.
SARAH!! those mediheal toner pads ARE GOD TIER. i had 1 to try, bought 3 different types when I'm back home. WORTH IT!!!
Omg really?? Which type is your favorite?? 😮
@@2hearts1seoul OH SHOOT I'M LATE!! all of it!! i like the purple one when i need to cool down, blue ones when i have break outs, pink ones for collagen! ITS GOOD ;-;
@@fi0nne thank you!!
It’s crazy that cheese prices in korea are the same as in quebec 😂🥲
thanks so much! i miss seoul so much. watching this makes me feel like i am not totally out of the loop.
The chicken udon looks really good! The Hanaro Mart looked really cute. I don't know it's just the city I live in, in Canada, but in terms of grocery stores there's not too much variety as they're all big box stores - Costco, Walmart, Sobeys/Foodland/Freshco, Metro/Food Basics, Zehrs/Superstore/NoFrills. Happy Easter btw!
Wow, local Korean marts are so fancy and luxurious.
My mouth watered when I saw the 약과😭🤍 last time I went home I brought some for my family and they loved them as much as I do
Ohhh! Im definitely going to try that next time we go! I think my mom might really like them 😊
Great as always, especially the Beemo wrestling match for fried chicken at the end 😂😂 now that I’m in Seoul I can even visit the places that you guys show us, if I can find them 😅 Definitely gonna visit the miniature exhibit.
Reallyyyy recommend that miniature exhibit! 😍
I got my Vessi low top stormburst on the early sale (I think these are my 7th pair of Vessi shoes). The shoes just get better and better! These are 100% waterproof, comfortable and look so much like regular sneakers. I also love the base... feels so stable when I'm walking.
I would love to visit that large supermarket. OMG... such treasures there!
Vessi has been on a ROLL with their new releases 🔥
Kyuho is so cute when it comes to scary movies xD he's a baby every time. Now I want to watch that movie. And I have The Glory on my to-watch list, so I'll start this week 🤭 And I loved that mart you went, they have a lot!!! It's like heaven. Those yakgwa treats/snacks look like the ones in historical dramas and now that you say it's like a mini donut, I wanna try them and the fried chicken too even though I don't eat much regularly xD Have a nice week you guys
Hi guys!! just stopping by again to say hi!! and even that you don't celebrate it over there today is Easter Sunday here in USA , and is really nice to finish my Easter Sunday day watching your amazing videos. Love you guys!!
Ohhh, hope you’re having a great Easter weekend filled with lots of yummy food! Wish I could get my hands on a chocolate rabbit over here 🥲
You guys should definitely make another video trying those traditional Korean snacks !! 😆🙌🏽
Happy Sunday everyone!❤
👋😊
They've recently started carrying the samgak gimbap in plant based bulgogi flavour in the Korean marts downtown Toronto. They're so yummy for a quick work lunch!
Ooohhh, they’re perfect for lunch! We eat tuna ones at the time at home :)
Wow😂😂😂😂Beemo wanted that chicken bad.. hahahahaha 😂
That food served there looks insane 2:00
It was SO good
Went to a screening of Exhuma in LA, I love scary movies but I was worried bc Korean horror is next level - happy to say the movie was great, the supernatural and shamanism of it all was fascinating and there are a few gory/gross parts and one big jump scare but other than that not too scary!!
There are several comments that also said that it’s not *too* scary! Maybe we’ll try to be brave and watch it at home when it comes out 😅
You are correct. I remember many years ago when the movie THE RING came out. There was so much buzz about how scary it was. I said it's not that it's so scary, but that is what Asian ghosts are like. They don't wear silly masks and they don't just disappear when the sun comes up.
I love parilla leaves. I think I want to go to Korea for the food shopping. Everything looks amazing!
I enjoy when u guys go out!!! And yes I'll be in japan again in 2 weeks!!! Woop woop!!! 😊
오늘 영상도 재밌게 봤어요! 파묘를 지금은 보셨는지 모르겠지만 항일메세지가 담겨있어서 더 흥행한듯 싶어요. 나중에 알고보면 더 소름돋는 그런 점도 있고요ㅎㅎ
Exhuma was really good. I found it scary while I was watching it but after I finished I didn't start seeing ghost in the corners so it's not as scary once you are done with it.
you guys being so terrified but appreciative of ceremonial arts got me laughing so hard, i love sundays
edit: sarah putting the USD of what the cheese cost and as an american i was like "is that not normal- like 6 bucks for a little cheese wheel yeah."
We like to keep a respectful distance from it, hahah 😬💦
That same wheel of cheese used to be around 5,000-6,000 won about 3-4 years ago 🥲
@@2hearts1seoul omg no way. 😭
I'd love to try sesame leaf. It always looks so good
Perilla leaves are available at all Korean grocery stores, but right now they cost about $5 or possibly more. I grow them in my garden in summertime. Super easy to grow. I appreciate it when you list the prices in Korea - something I'm always curious about.
Saw Exhuma at the cinema and loved it! I’m from the Philippines.
Heard it’s doing really well in the Philippines!
Hi 😊 I live in Düsseldorf, Germany. Here we have an Asian supermarket (perhaps the largest and best) called Hanaro and it has the best assortment of Korean products, although a little expensive. Now I want to go to Seoul and visit a real Hanaro 😅
Oh wow! We had no idea Germany also had Hanaro Mart! 🤯
Paris Baguette! My favorite place to get breakfast when I was in Seoul.
Oh how ironic I was curious about the Exhuma movie when the trailer came out since I’m a huge fan of Yoo- Hai Jin 😊
I been waiting since 6 am california time.❤️ you guys make my Sundays.❤❤
Omggg 🥹❤️ Thanks so much for waiting and watching!
@@2hearts1seoul ❤️❤️❤️
I also had pizza while watching physical 100 this weekend. Defo hitting the gym hard this week! 😅
Omg the 500won ice cream 🤯
Oh Bemo was so cute 😂
The food looks so delicious!
I LOVE YOU BEEMO! 🐈⬛😻😊
HAHAHA BEEMO WANTING THE FRIED CHICKEN IS SO ME
He was not gonna give up so easily 😂
Beemo! 💛 too funny 🐤! Wow, that noodle aisle, how could one ever make a decision?
He loves his fried chicken 😅
Hi Sarah! Hi Kyuho! Not only is it Easter Sunday here, but we get to see how your week was! Win Win! Oh my gosh, that udon restaurant looked so yummy! The gyoza was a work of art! That presentation! Woah!
I love how you both only talk about scary things during the day. I’m so that person too! I’m intrigued by ghosts-as I actually captured an entity on film, many years ago at Alcatraz Prison in San Francisco while on tour with my husband and son. My Japanese mom made a HUGE deal about bad luck, etc., and made me get rid of it, before I could even send it off to ‘Ghost Hunters,’ my favorite ghost hunting team. Ever since then, I don’t like to watch anything ‘ghost,’ or anything scary after the sun goes down. I don’t think I could watch the movie you mentioned-even if it was on my phone with the volume down, like Sarah mentioned. LOL
I do have to commend you both on your restraint at the market. We have H-Mart out here, and I will always walk out with a cart full of groceries. We do have sesame leaves at H-Mart, as I will often buy them for at home KBBQ. What I do have trouble finding are large perilla leaves. Thanks for sharing your fried chicken! I am sooooo going to get that for dinner tonight!
Have a great and safe week! ❤
O m g. I’m so curios about what you filmed, but then again, I’d be too scared to actually watch it 😰
We were talking about how some people who watch this video will likely end up getting fried chicken for a meal within 24 hours of watching 😂🍗
@@2hearts1seoul …..I will share on your Insta. It’s a long and very true story……. 🥹
I really love watching your videos every week, they make me want to go to Korea. That will not happen as I have a phobia of flying. 😒 I get soooo hungry watching you guys eat such delicious looking food every week.. lol I also want to thank you for introducing me to Vessi ( Well by husband doesn't think so. lol) I am up to my 3rd pair. Love them. Have a great week and see you next Sunday... Love from North Carolina, USA Happy Easter!
Beemo's reaction to the chicken, it really seemed delicious haha
I also don't watch scary movies but you made me curious about exhuma, if you watch it please let us know your review :D
I cant wait to see Exhuma! I live in Singapore ❤
That Korean fried chicken looks insane. How much was that box in Korean won? 😀
Have you guys ever considered renting an RV for a weekend? I think it would be fun to see you guys glamping (without having to use any of the public bathrooms and stuff)... but still being a little adventurous 😊
There isn’t really an RV culture in Korea, since it’s a small country where you can easily and quickly get around by vehicles or high-speed trains ;) Out of all the road trips we’ve been on here, I honestly don’t think we’ve seen even one RV. Canada is a totally different story, of course 😅
@@2hearts1seoul I think Cari had a video once where she stayed in a type of camper with Kurt for the weekend
Hi, omg that's me shopping 🛒 complex. Lol, I'll go nuts 🤪 in there so many to choose and yummy 😋. They sell the mint leaves? here only at korean shops. Beemo like our cat's smell the foods and try to take it 😺. Thanks for another great vlog, take care 😊...
Desperate Beemo🤭❤️❤️❤️
I eat a little raw cabbage every day, so I don't have a stomachache even if I eat spicy Korean food. I recommend eating a little raw cabbage every day
I definitely need to try this 😮
Notification squad 🤗 love watching your vlogs, especially this time of year. Something about them just gives fresh and spring, all good vibes ✨️
Awww, thank you 🥰
❤Lol! Bemo and fried chicken.
I watch your vids,while at work- on my lunchbreak.Good thing i was eating chicken.😂
I grew up watching "Monster " movies ,so most of my collection are sci fi and horror.
Alien movies,Saw movies,Hellraiser,those are all good ones,for me.
I will look into the one you mention here.
Thanks for sharing your shopping trip! Love seeing what is available and prices,all over the world.
Have a great one!
Hahah, very lucky indeed that you were already eating chicken! 🍗
I watched Exhuma and I love it. I am somewhat familiar with Korean history, but I think people who are not exposed to Korean history will not understand the movie that well. The movie is very popular in my country. Shamanism is something that exist in my country, so that might be one of the reasons why the movie is popular. I don't find the movie scary at all, though.
Thank you for sharing that udon place, can't wait to check it out when I'm in Seoul!
It was SO delicious! Definitely a must!
Haha!! Makgeolli & Soju section.......Important Korean food group. 🤣🤣🤣
Lots of space dedicated to those items 😎
I also can’t watch any scary/gory movies(even coraline was scary for me) but Exhuma was actually okay to watch :) It’s also appealing to Koreans because of the messages related to Korea’s independence during the Japanese invasion. I totally recommend it!
Oohhhh 👀
I was quite surprised by the size of the supermarkets that I went to when I was in Seoul. I thought they would be bigger than the ones where I live in New Zealand, but they aren't. I still liked them though, they had lots of premade things that looked quite interesting.
Yeah, they’re much smaller than the ones I’m used to in Canada~ But that’s understandable, as Korea has a much smaller land mass, and Seoul is super densely populated. A huge upside to living in a small country is that it’s really simple to get your groceries delivered here quickly, which we prefer 😎
Oh my the supermarket is insane
We always have a blast there 😋
20:25 & 21:15 The Beemo Barrier 🧱
😇
That Camembert is $10 at Real Canadian Superstore ~~ the price of cheese is nuts. It has become a treat.
Noooo, no there too! 😭
Oooo wifey and I love horror/scary/supernatural movies. Maybe we'll have to wait for this one to come out on streaming since it doesn't look like it's in our area. You guys sound like maybe you should only watch during the day so maybe you don't pee in your pants haha.
Oh! Our local Costco just started selling Bibigo bulgogi mandu. SO good and we'll add some noodles and bok choy in a soup for a full meal. Easy quick stuff like that is so nice to have in the freezer!
I don’t even know if we’d be able to pull off watching it in the daytime, haha 😭
OH, those are amazing! All of their mandu is delicious 🥟
7:34 I’m sure Sarah didn’t intend it but it was just captivating (the eyes of the cat)😂😂😂😂😂
Beemo at the end 😂😂🤣🤣😭😭😺✨
Yay for 21 minutes!😊
haha I feel the same whenever I watch American exorcist movies, Sarah. I don't understand the ritual but somewhat...interesting😂
My family also do Charye but I've never heard about that shaman ceremony thing!
I think Goksung is the best Korean occult movie...highly recommend it!
Happy Easter Sunday for you both💖✨️💫🐰🐣🥰
Thanks for sharing yoir vídeos with us. It's a sunday thing😊
Watch One Life by Sir Anthony Hopkins very brilliant. Those fried chicken tho 😋😋😋
What a video ❤ Really loved your supermarket exploration although I'm sure it's a lot easier to stick to the shopping list with online shopping so I don't blame you for only visiting once in a while! Beemo with the chicken was so funny too, my cat used to do that 😂 Shamanism in South Korea really fascinates me given how prevalent the practices still are in such a modern country. The fact that they're still using shamans when opening new government buildings is mind boggling to me, plus the whole allegations against the president alleging that he decided to shun the Blue House because of its bad ju ju. I don't know of any other country as modern as South Korea where this still happens.
My husband just bought some of those exact same frozen triangle kimbap at our local KMarket in Saskatoon!
Omg, how were they?? We’re still thinking about those 👀
@@2hearts1seoul we haven't tried them yet but they look so tasty! Definitely need to eat them soon!!
I can never watch your videos hungry! 😂
Smart! Hahah 😁
I watched Exumha at a theater in the USA and loved it! I didn’t think it was scary at all but I don’t typically have any issues with scary movies. My husband definitely spooks easier and I don’t think he would consider it scary either… more mystery/thriller? It is intense; there is a strong sense of dread and some grotesque scenes/imagery, but I don’t think you would walk away feeling haunted or scared, if that makes sense.
Ok this is a super helpful description of the film that kind of makes us feel a little more at ease-thank you 😅
love your black jacket. where did you buy? i have purchased Vessi because of you two recommendations.
Hope you’re enjoying your Vessis! 👟 Our padded black winter jackets are from Uniqlo! 😊
Hi Sarah, do you mind sharing where your sunglasses are from (worn at 10:15)?
Coupang! :)
I wish I could purchase some of those clay pots that I can’t here in the States😫😊
Love all the food
@18:35 - $3.70 CA for a 5-pack of the basic orange pack of Samyang instant ramen? Nice. The cheapest you can get them here in Halifax (when not on sale), as far as I can tell, is $6.49 (₩6,450) at No Frills. At Sobeys, they were $8.99 (₩8,940) last time I looked. Of course, ours has to be imported, but it still sucks having to pay so much more. :P (Only noticed 'cos it's time to get some more as I, before I even saw it in the video, was going to have my last pack for lunch in about 10 minutes :)
[edited to do some exchange rate stuff :P]
Yeah, we definitely notice quite a price difference when it comes to imported Korean food/snacks when we visit Halifax-which is why we try to cram as much as we can into our suitcases on the way over 😅
We can get pretty reasonably priced imported items at Walmart where I live. The issue I find is that when they sell out it’s not usual to bring in the same it’s all the time. Buldak 4 packs are $7.97 CDN there.
i like the fact that Sarah acknowledges how crazily expensives fruits are in Korea. and they are. who would pay 129,000 won for some apples from some local farms. and 11,000w for a punnet of strawberry. no way!
I love perilla leaves so much. I drive like an hour every week just to buy some lol (i live in utah, usa 😺)
That’s some serious commitment! 😎
Gee that supermarket is huge! 7:37
It’s pretty massive! Definitely close to Canada sized supermarkets 🛒
I also cant watch horror movies but my mom watched it!! She said it was good. She said it isnt really scary, just full of suspense hahah. Basically the ghost had a terrible past and now the past has come back to haunt and torment the living 🥴
Ohhh, maybe it would be something we could pull off then 😬
that fried chicken looks delish!
Snack table idea: Dunkin Donuts made with corn flour, corn muffins, ttuk, sliced gimbap optional, sliced cake, & mandarins.
Beemo is naughty😂
Beemo, "Give me some of that chicken now!!" 🤣
How much was that chicken?! Can’t wait to get some soon. Thanks for the video.
It was 14,000 won! Great price for that amount 😄
@@2hearts1seoul that’s less than $10.50!!! In less than a month we’ll definitely get some!
Is frozen fruit an affordable option in Korea? In Canada sometimes the fruit is healthier (picked at perfect ripeness) and more affordable frozen.
🍜치킨우동 먹을때 세라 탑 너무 이뻐요!
정보 알고싶어요~~!!💛
Arrived Seocho gu yesterday for 5 weeks , did your Costco trip but everything 'family sized', so went to Lotte for essentials. Going to find a Hanaro mart today and go down to Lotteworld to find the cakes you showed in another video....₩₩₩₩₩s😖😖
Did you guys get to watch Exhuma? I thought it was really good!
That Ile de France cheese is $12 in the US.
