Properly holding chopsticks is vital in chinese manners. Ppl may not point it out, but if someone can't hold chopstick properly, it will be harmful for this persons' public impression. Also, only picking food from the side near to you; never search the bits u like from a sharing plate; do not tapping ur chopsticks on ur bowl; do not use chopstick pointing at ppl; do not lick ur chopstick; do not stick the chopstick in the rice, etc,..... The chinese girl hasnt mentioned doesn't mean we dont have manners to use chopsticks. Yet, what ive mentioned are only few eating manners related to chopstick using in china, there are lots lots lots more for the rest. The rules might be varied, but they do exist in all these three countries.
@@keke9361 it is also more noble or elegant to hold the chopsticks higher. Also, using chopsticks properly was drilled into me as a kid and we also definitely judge or give grief to someone who uses a twisting method instead of the proper method to using chopsticks. Also using them properly which the Chinese girl in the video was on the looser side of doing allows you to pick up pretty much everything from soft tofu to a little peanut.
@@mxmeseeks it definitely was. They were beautiful too but i was more interested in how there was even a difference between the chopsticks. Never knew that.
@@Ky-U right? The video was more interesting than just watching any dumb attractive person doing/talking about anything. For someone to imply they only stayed for their looks is pretty bad
As a Norwegian who uses ski poles as chopsticks, i find it truly incredible that you are able to use such short sticks for eating your food, my viking helm off to you gals!
Do norwegian eats big? , that's why you have your chopsticks big? your body also got big? and in the end you shit big? Pls don't takes it seriously, 😂 i just joking.
LOL 😂 Ya’ know, here in California, USA, we typically chop down our redwood trees and use the logs as suitable utensils, but skiing poles work good too! 🤪😂😆
It's actually not entirely accurate though. Both the Chinese and Korean ladies are using their chopsticks wrongly for their local standards. They seem like they were never taught how to properly use chopsticks, and they just winged it. They aren't representative of chopstick users in their representative cultures.
It seems like artificially forcing differences for the sake of talking about differences though. I know other countries than Korea use metal chopsticks for example.
@@ijinseo My family used metal chopsticks in Taiwan for many years, and I use them in the US. But they are the round metal kind. I think Korea also has the flat metal kind that I haven't seen many other places, other than Korean restaurants.
@@darrenjones2933 my guess is korean food have a lot pickled food which r not good to keep wood chopsticks last long. So korean have invented the metal ones to adapted their cusine.
I am Cambodian, I was raised to use the bamboo Chinese style chopsticks. It wasn't until I was in the military and travelled to Japan did I notice the shorter pointier Japanese chopsticks. And much later in life mid 30's did I attempt to use the metal Korean chopticks. Coincidetally the Korean ones look cooler but way more difficult to use. My favorite will always be the bamboo Chinese ones.
same loved bamboo until recently bought new stainless korean design one. it’s hollow so it does not transfer heat and much more circular like the bamboo one. Also, there is a grooves at the bottom for grip. Bamboo is the best other than maintaining previous food or soap.
@@gentiligiuliano7882 that's the joke. It's all about stereotypes. Of course I don't use a pizza cutter, it's blasphemy. Sane Italians use scissors or knives.
American-born Japanese here: We turn around the chopsticks when eating “family style” so that we don’t touch the common dishes and serve other people food with the ends we actually eat with. But I heard from Japanese friends that it actually can be putting others at a distance by being too formal. Don’t know all the politeness rules because my family came here early 1900s and the manners have changed since my grandpa’s generation.
@@chayashidaI lived in Japan for 12 years, so, It is true that u should flip your chopsticks to touch food that other people will aswell, but not many people bother, unless it's a formal occasion, or kids trying to look grown up😂😂
There are also a different type of Korean chopsticks that are round not flat and made of metal, I think those are a bit easier to use than the flat ones. They even have little ridges on the bottom part to grip the noodles easier.
It's even more slippery than the flat one imo... Hahah The Japanese one with the thin end is also sometimes hard to use depending on the material. Altho there's chopstick there with thicker end like the Chinese one. Thicker end and square-ish shaped
And then for Chinese chopsticks, there are different types, there is wooden chopsticks which is disposable("dry" ones, not the smooth ones like what u see in the vid)
한국 젓가락 예절 있어요 ㅋㅋ 왜저렇게 젓가락질도 못하는 분을 한국 대표로 해놨는지 모르겠지만 저런분 잘 못봤어요 ... 대부분 어릴 때 부모님이 고쳐주죠 요새는 남의 일이니 신경 안쓰지만 속으로는 생각할지도 모르죠 그리고 동생분 말처럼 어른들은 더 신경쓰시고 욕할지도 몰라요
Fun Fact: Korean chopsticks are metal because of the food delivered to the King. When the silver chopsticks or spoon touches the poisoned food chopsticks' color changed. but common people can't use silver they used metal instead that's why Korea uses metal. Also for the cleanliness. Wooden chopsticks and spoons get crack easily so even if you wash them they won't completely disappear.
Also, wood do absorb stuff so after certain amount of uses, you have to buy new ones. This is also why many chefs hated wooden spoons or anything wooden.
It's the taste of the food, the moment the metal touch your tongue, it tastes different for a moment, the same reason some East Asian do not use metal spoon.
About 7 thousand years ago, the best tableware in the life of Neolithic people in order to deal with meat-eating people was of course knives, but people called this kind of knives on the table "daggers" at that time. It is conceivable that the smart ancient Chinese first applied the knife to their diet.  This unearthed bronze dagger has two practical functions: one is equivalent to a spoon, and the other is equivalent to a table knife, which can be cut and fished. In fact, in the pre-Qin period, the "dagger" evolved from the knife, and later gradually formed the two functions of the knife and the spoon. After that, it only functions as a spoon.😄🦄🐼

As an Indian I never thought there would be much difference between chopsticks 😂. This was very interesting to watch! I love how they're all are shaped differently to suit the cuisines of each culture!
@@arijitdas3891 i use hand, spoon and i have a bunchhh of chopsticks at home that we also eat with, we have the mix of everything the korean style is what we mainly use which is etal but slightly rounded, flat plastic ones with ridges at the bottom and the chinese style wooden ones
They did Jane dirty by not giving her appropriate chopsticks 😭 I'll add some thoughts since this comment kinda took off: This was so interesting! I had no idea that chopsticks could be so different between cultures, I thought they were the same everywhere! It also was super interesting to learn about Japanese chopsticks etiquette, I didn't know about it, I'll be careful with my chopsticks if I go to Japan one day 😅
China is the most multicultural country compared to Japan & Korea, there are some differences in the customs, foods, tablewares (incl. chopsticks), etc even between different sub ethnic of Han ethnic. For me, Jane's chopstick is (or at least looks like) the type of chopstick that I usually use for eating, and I have no problem eating Chinese, Japanese, Korean food with it, since I used to use it since kid
Thank you World Friends for making this video or posting it. The English captions are very helpful. This is a very beautiful video. Understanding others requires communication and sharing of information and life experience. Now I have greater insight about relatives, friends, co-workers and teachers from each of these countries.
I was raised with Japanese chopsticks bc we have a very close friend whomwas like a second mom to me who was from Okinawa. I never knew there was a difference in chopsticks between Asian countries. This was so interesting and I'm really glad I happened upon this video. It now makes sense to me why when I have gotten into cooking more traditional Korean dishes and I have ordered different cooking utensils (have all the ones for Japanese cooking) why there is such a difference in the chopsticks I have received. Now with a better understanding of why some are thicker at the ends vs pointy or narrow..I will begin using them properly now with each different dish. I think I will also look up respectful manners before we travel to each country so as not to offend our hosts. We are planning a trip to Korea & Japan in the near future. While.we've already traveled to China in the past few years. Very interesting video. I learned a lot.
I've been studying Japanese for a long time and when Kotaha started speaking I thought I had forgotten everything I learned before I realized they are all speaking Korean 🙃🙃🙃 I had expected them all to speak in their native languages, but it's so cool to hear people speak that fluently in another language. Such a great video, I was super entertained and inspired!
And I’m sitting here trying to pick up one measly word to try and figure out which language they were speaking in 🤦🏾♀️🤦🏾♀️. When I eat with chopsticks, I use two pairs. One to get the food to my plate from the shared dish and the other to eat. I’m probably breaking a cardinal rule 🤷🏽♀️🤷🏽♀️🤷🏽♀️
I was a little bit confused because I also thought they were all speaking in their mother tongue, until I discovered they didn't sound different at all. So then I thought about which language they spoke in (maybe some esperanto-ish Asian labguage to make it easy for them to communicate) until I read here that it was actually korean
출연진 아버님의 세대들은 할아버지 세대들에게 혼나면서 젓가락질을 배웠습니다. 요즘은 시대가 바뀌었는지 젓가락질로 뭐라 하지 않지만, 저 시대에 어른들과 식사할 때 한 소리 들었죠. 당시 저도 젓가락질을 특이하게 했는데 "가정교육의 문제"라는 말들 듣고 바로 바꿨던 기억이 납니다. Cast Father's Generation learned how to use chopsticks by being scolded by grandfather's generation. These days, I don't say anything about chopsticks, but I heard it when I was eating with adults. At that time, I also used chopsticks in a unique way, but I remember that I changed it right after hearing that it was a problem of home education.
Facts: Korean chopsticks is flat because in ancient Korean Dynasties, the servant in the palace find it hard to carry the food along with the chopsticks (which was round back in the days) because their tray has no wall sides to stop the chopsticks from falling down, so they improvised the chopsticks and make it flat so it won't fall off anymore.
@@Pip3queak Idk, if you watch the Korean Dynasties based drama/movie/documentary, their tray is just like flat plank of wood, if I'm wrong just point it out.
@@LiuTheRick not sure whether it is a fact, but I was making fun of why they wouldn’t think of making better trays. But just as a discussion, wouldn’t they accommodate the royals more than the staff? Flat/rectangular chopsticks are so hard to use.
I'm a Swiss guy watching this with subtitles and putting your Korean through GoogelyTranslate. I really love how people can come together through the Web like this, and I agree it's the respectful tone and interest in one another's cultures that makes this video great. (And yes, as a Swiss guy, I use two gigantic wheels of cheese as chopsticks, which is better than the idea I first had about bars of gold from our banks' vaults...)
@@najoeun I can guess your question by reading Carlos Lee's reply, in China you can use VPN to access websites / apps which are blocked by the Gov, it's common and acceptable eventhough not every people use it
Well my dreams of going to Japan are shattered- don't wanna offend someone and their 14 generations with my terrible chopstick skills I'm trying to learn tho
I really enjoyed watching you talk and show the differences in each chop stick use. I’ve used all three but Korea’s is more difficult for me. I like the rudiments of the Japanese table rules but I like the long Chinese sticks because I find the Japanese ones too short at times. However, I thank you all three for presenting the differences I really learned something. Also your all most lovely. Stay safe and healthy.
@@haruyanto8085 No that's the mandatory side dish, that's a given so there's no need to mention it all the time. Although there can be some regional variances, I'm Irish too but I prefer to eat my food with leprechauns myself.
What I find interesting in this is that despite them all speaking Korean, they seem to retain the cadence and rhythm of their respective native languages.
Finally! I visited the comment session tô try to find out which common language they were using as a bridge but then got last with all the "as a national of wherever who uses whatever to eat I can totally relate" comments. I was about to give up. Thanks for the info.
Haha at first I thought they were speaking native languages but once they got past the intros I realized it must be Korean, but they definitely do speak with their home countries mannerisms etc. I could definitely tell the difference when she was talking about the hashioki especially.
This was super fascinating! I love using chopsticks but I had no idea there were different ones. I love that you girls did this and now I want to get one from each country because it’s helpful for different things you eat! I love it!
For me personally, Korean metal chopstick is the hardest. The fact that it's flat and veeery slippery 😅 But it's fun to use it just to challenge myself 😂 I'm more used to Japanese and Chinese ones.
@samuel Y yes, I agree on that. Metal is easier to clean. It also takes less space in the drawers and don't have to worry about breaking it. But my flimsy fingers always drop and splattered things when I use it 😅
me too. As a Chinese I would obviously be most comfortable with Chinese chopsticks. I think for me Japanese chopsticks are much easier to use than Korean chopsticks. I went to a Korean restaurant and I struggled to use it. It was so heavy and flat haha
스테인리스 재질로 만든다는 그 이유 하나만으로 대한민국 젓가락이 가장 우수한것임. 스테인리스는 철(Fe)+크롬임.이는 어떠한 경우에도 절대로 부식이 안된다는 점에서 가장 안전한 식도구인것임.게다가 뜨거운 온도로 세척한다고해서 재질이나 형태가 변형 또한 발생하지 않는다는점에서 언제어디서든 살균세척까지 다 되는 재질인것임.하지만 나무로된 젓가락을 사용하는 중국과 일본은 사실상 1회용이므로 한번 사용한 즉시 폐기시켜야되는것임.그것이 기본원칙인것임.하지만 중국과 일본의 젓가락은 1회용인 나무젓가락임에도 불구하고 1회사용 후 폐기처분 안하고 세척해서 장기간 사용함.그렇게되면 어차피 제대로된 세척(살균/소독)이 안된건데 세척한 흉내만내어서 될 일이 아닌것임.세척을 하려면 실제로 살균/소독이 제대로 되도록(뜨거운 열에 삶아서) 세척해야 되는것임.주방세제 이용해서 잘 닦는다고해서 실제로 잘 닦이는것이 아님.주기적으로 뜨거운 온도로 살균/소독 할 수 있어야되는것임.
I learnt at Mexico using sticks with a Chinese friend, and loved it! I never knew there were so different at Japan and Korea! So interesting to try!! ♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️
This was such an interesting intercultural lesson. Would've never learned this anywhere else I think. Im vietnamese and never thought that other country's chopsticks would be dishes. We definitely inherited chopstick shape from China.
I'm Vietnamese too and I was really surprised with Japan. I didn't know chopstick etiquette is so important, Id be a disgrace bc I use mine to play drums against the table🤣
Strangely I grew up with chopsticks that were pointy and round but long like the Chinese ones. Not sure if you know them. It wasn’t until I went to Viet restaurants and other peoples houses that I used the thicker round to square ones
When I first bought Korean chopsticks, I was shocked at the hand strain. Being used to the light weight and relative thickness of standard wooden disposable chopsticks, it took a while to get used to the metal style. The heavier weight, and the slightly tighter grip due to the thin & flat shape, had my hands feeling like I’d worked out. 😂 I got used to it, though.
I’m Singaporean Chinese and the korean flat metal chopsticks was really difficult for me at first too! During my first meal in Korea, I couldn’t pick anything up that my korean colleague even asked me if I knew how to use chopsticks and offered me a fork instead 😂
i learn using chopsticks with a pencil mongol no. 2... and later on the metal chopsticks from my koreans co-worker.. i find it not so difficult as you use pencil mongol no. 2 as your practice material... ahahahaha picking up mongo beans with pencil was quite fun!!!
I watched a similar video to this a while ago, and just to add a few more facts: - Korean chopsticks were made of metal as soldiers (I'm not sure which war/era) found it easier to transport and clean than wooden ones, hence why its also flatter than other chopticks so it'd take up less space when moving around. - Japanese chopticks are usually made of wood as it's again easier to take out fish bones, just like the thickness of it matters too. - Historically, Chinese chopsticks were made longer not just because food is placed on a big table and might be further away, but also to be able to put food on the plate of the people you were eating with as solidarity was also shown through communal eating and feeding others. Idk why I remember these facts but I hope someone out there found the extra information useful!!
@@user-wl2vj6yk7x But the Japanese lady said that they aren’t allowed to stab there food or they get in trouble/scolded. So the Japanese don’t stab their food either.
Korean metal chopsticks were first excavated from the tomb of a king in AD 523. It was mainly used with silver to prevent the king from being poisoned, but the common people couldn't make silver chopsticks, so they used iron.
In addition, the Japanese have bad teeth because it is impolite in their culture to spit out bones or fish bones, so their food is softer, their teeth are less stimulated during the growth stage, and they are more likely to grow crooked teeth, leading to a host of oral problems.
I use all three. But prefer Chinese chopsticks, the squarish ones, because they are the most versatile. Japanese chopsticks are too short and Korean ones are too flat and slippery
True I have Korean chopsticks I like using them when eating Korean bbq. Chinese chopsticks and soup spoon easier for eating noodles and broth. True Japanese chopsticks are easier to debone and eat fish with.
I love how we all, including the women in the video, learned about the differences of chopsticks. I now have to check my chopsticks and evaluate which country and food types they might actually be for.
@@user-xe1ss3sh7q Ah, yes, we did. It used to be sauna, Nokia, and the snake game. However, eating habits have been rapidly changing within the last 10 years. It can be confusing, I completely understand.

There are a lot of subtle manners when eating Chinese food especially at a banquet and it's considered quite rude to serve yourself first.

When the silver chopsticks or spoon touches the poisoned food chopsticks' color changed. but common people can't use silver they used metal instead that's why Korea uses metal.
Also for the cleanliness. Wooden chopsticks and spoons get crack easily so even if you wash them they won't completely disappear.
Also, wood do absorb stuff so after certain amount of uses, you have to buy new ones. This is also why many chefs hated wooden spoons or anything wooden.
It's the taste of the food, the moment the metal touch your tongue, it tastes different for a moment, the same reason some East Asian do not use metal spoon.
buddy has never tried metal sticks. There is no metal taste to them.
About 7 thousand years ago, the best tableware in the life of Neolithic people in order to deal with meat-eating people was of course knives, but people called this kind of knives on the table "daggers" at that time.
It is conceivable that the smart ancient Chinese first applied the knife to their diet.

This unearthed bronze dagger has two practical functions: one is equivalent to a spoon, and the other is equivalent to a table knife, which can be cut and fished. In fact, in the pre-Qin period, the "dagger" evolved from the knife, and later gradually formed the two functions of the knife and the spoon. After that, it only functions as a spoon.😄🦄🐼

I was raised with Japanese chopsticks bc we have a very close friend whomwas like a second mom to me who was from Okinawa. I never knew there was a difference in chopsticks between Asian countries. This was so interesting and I'm really glad I happened upon this video. It now makes sense to me why when I have gotten into cooking more traditional Korean dishes and I have ordered different cooking utensils (have all the ones for Japanese cooking) why there is such a difference in the chopsticks I have received. Now with a better understanding of why some are thicker at the ends vs pointy or narrow..I will begin using them properly now with each different dish. I think I will also look up respectful manners before we travel to each country so as not to offend our hosts. We are planning a trip to Korea & Japan in the near future. While.we've already traveled to China in the past few years. Very interesting video. I learned a lot.
I've been studying Japanese for a long time and when Kotaha started speaking I thought I had forgotten everything I learned before I realized they are all speaking Korean 🙃🙃🙃 I had expected them all to speak in their native languages, but it's so cool to hear people speak that fluently in another language.
Such a great video, I was super entertained and inspired!
Yes I also thought that they all going to speak in their native languages.
Lol same. Made me question my understanding of Japanese language
And I’m sitting here trying to pick up one measly word to try and figure out which language they were speaking in 🤦🏾♀️🤦🏾♀️. When I eat with chopsticks, I use two pairs. One to get the food to my plate from the shared dish and the other to eat. I’m probably breaking a cardinal rule 🤷🏽♀️🤷🏽♀️🤷🏽♀️
I was a little bit confused because I also thought they were all speaking in their mother tongue, until I discovered they didn't sound different at all. So then I thought about which language they spoke in (maybe some esperanto-ish Asian labguage to make it easy for them to communicate) until I read here that it was actually korean
I realized they were speaking Korean immediately because I noticed the Korean girl in the middle started speaking like a host for the other girls.

Cast Father's Generation learned how to use chopsticks by being scolded by grandfather's generation. These days, I don't say anything about chopsticks, but I heard it when I was eating with adults. At that time, I also used chopsticks in a unique way, but I remember that I changed it right after hearing that it was a problem of home education.
Facts: Korean chopsticks is flat because in ancient Korean Dynasties, the servant in the palace find it hard to carry the food along with the chopsticks (which was round back in the days) because their tray has no wall sides to stop the chopsticks from falling down, so they improvised the chopsticks and make it flat so it won't fall off anymore.

한국인의 젓가락 사용방법이 잘못되었습니다
I watched a similar video to this a while ago, and just to add a few more facts:
- Korean chopsticks were made of metal as soldiers (I'm not sure which war/era) found it easier to transport and clean than wooden ones, hence why its also flatter than other chopticks so it'd take up less space when moving around.
- Japanese chopticks are usually made of wood as it's again easier to take out fish bones, just like the thickness of it matters too.
- Historically, Chinese chopsticks were made longer not just because food is placed on a big table and might be further away, but also to be able to put food on the plate of the people you were eating with as solidarity was also shown through communal eating and feeding others.
Idk why I remember these facts but I hope someone out there found the extra information useful!!

Korean metal chopsticks were first excavated from the tomb of a king in AD 523.
It was mainly used with silver to prevent the king from being poisoned,
but the common people couldn't make silver chopsticks,
so they used iron.
In addition, the Japanese have bad teeth because it is impolite in their culture to spit out bones or fish bones, so their food is softer, their teeth are less stimulated during the growth stage, and they are more likely to grow crooked teeth, leading to a host of oral problems.
