I ate my first noodle in 3 hours :))))
Practice makes perfect, i guess
Hahaha hahaha 😋
I tried a soup in 12 hours
😁
😂😂😂😂😂😂
I'm sitting here trying to use a couple of pens as practice
same xD
Hahaha same 😂
hahaha same
me too
THEGOLDENCAR me to.
Thank you from an awkward American that really admires the beautiful Asian traditions 😊
I went into a chinese restaurant and i asked for a fork and the waiter tossed it on the table like he hated me😫
Jk
jason castro Were you trying to be funny?
Lol, OMG
@Jojet Shardonay He was joking, he replied under his comment "Jk" or JOKE
@Jojet Shardonay jk stand for just kidding
"Now im going to pickup some rice" *picks up one grain XD
+MLKKK - "Now im going to pickup *SOME* rice"
MLKKK - what?
lmfao
As she picked up that 1 grain of rice, I said out loud that presses me 😂
The rice stuck to the end of the chopstick.
I think I'm going to starve to death before I learn how to use these. But hey, at least I'll lose weight in the process.
chopsticks are really convienent when having suchi or dimsums. It isnt possible eating them using a fork or spoon. Eating with hands in a good restaurant just looks illmanared.
Lol
Vaishnav bruh I tried to eat a dimsum 2 days ago with chopsticks but I couldn’t hold onto the damn things it kept sliding out but I’m hella good with chopsticks
Hahaha 😂 same here
😂😂😂
I'm having dinner with my asian gf's parents tommorrow night and its the first time meeting them after 5 months, hopefully this will go well. Got 24 hours to practice
Good luck 😊
how did it go
Johan Chavez it was ok, her parents seemed cool till her dad asked "how you gonna support if you keep working small job... i just joking" but i mean we're not dating anymore lol
damn
that's so funny...would make for a funny part of a sitcom.
Woah! I've been told that I'm a super proficient chopstick user my whole life. I'm white American, but I went to "Chinese school" (we learned Chinese culture and language) as a kid and learned how to use chopsticks, and always thought I was doing it perfectly. But I always had my middle finger on the outer chopstick, thinking that gave me the most control. I just tried it the way you show in the video and holy crap the difference is amazing. Much easier and less hand-crampy. Thanks!
No one ever taught me how to use chopsticks, as a kid i just picked them up and figured it out myself. And that's my advice to whoever wants to learn how to use chopsticks. Just pick them up and find your best technique as long as you can pick up food, stick with that technique for 6 months and you'll be as good as an Asian.
i know your comment is 2years old, but no one is better than asians at anything.
Thang Nguyen tbh not all asians use chopsticks.
@@unkownhuman9115 true! even the ones who do, in some situation use forks, knives and spoons obviously
I am trying to learn to use chop sticks. This feels way better. thanks!
+Mark L you're welcome, Mark!
Knowing how some people say the wrong way is the right way
I can trust this channel, god bless you ❤️😊
This so much better than what I've been told before. Having the middle finger in between the sticks rather than to the side makes it so much easier!
You’re right practice, that’s how I learned to eat with them and if you can pick up one piece of 🍚 with them you can pick up all foods. Great 👍 vid.
Hahaha. I will try to pick one grain of rice
I tried picking up a soup once
Me... Sitting here with 2 pencils fucking around with my hand picking up gummy bears XD
+2Fat4FlyHackZ I'm using 2 different sized painting brushes :V
+nope. ash :)
2Fat4FlyHackZ bamboo knitting needles here !!!!!!
2Fat4FlyHackZ i have chopsticks
2Fat4FlyHackZ y u have to say bad word's
What a lovely channel I just discovered. Something more classy, mature and for us people who like youtube, but are not teenagers.
OMG, that's so much easier! Can't believe how much of a difference this makes!
So I was doing the right way and didn't know that! Thanks a lot!
lila katita you're welcome, and glad you've been doing the right way! You are ahead of the game!
Thank you so much! Caucasian here, who has always wondered the proper way! I had it almost right, but obviously, I was holding the chopsticks too far down towards the ends. And you are right about the muscles in the hand. It will take some time to retrain them. Thanks once again!
you're welcome
You can eat almost anything same way.
It's amazing how the right way is usually the best way. I'm admiring that collection of chop-sticks inside the glass.
William Albert Thank you William... I do have a lot of chopsticks!
Thank you so much yin & yang living SOOO much I've been wondering how to do it for ages
Thank you very much.
I tried to find an easy tutorial how to use chopsticks but I couldn't find one.
Now I saw your video and after the 3rd try I managed it to use them.
thanks
Sayu :)
you're welcome
Now that I saw ur profile pic I am starting to wonder how Namjoon managed to eat with chop sticks xD
Squishy Satansoo
mybe he did it with his left hand? xD I don't know what exactly you mean.
Sayu I mean...he breaks everything how did he manage to hold the sticks? lol
Squishy Satansoo
Oh you're right ^^ I forgot he's the god of destruction lol
I start to wonder how he can xD
Once I tried to eat chicken with chop sticks, I did it the right way for a bit, got tired and started to stab it with one... I don't know why I didn't just get a fork... I was at home lol
Don't do that in Japan. People will think you're mad for some reason
Free Man I wont... always will have forks with me when I eat around people... just in case XD
Free Man wait till they think youre mad like angry? Or crazy?
Sisi Stabbing food with a chopstick is part of a ritual performed at Japanese funerals - you won't come across as mad, but its not the kind of imagary you want to envoke at a dinner either
You can start a fight that way lmao just imagined how it would play through Haha
Thank you Moon Cho, you technique for holding chop sticks the right way was very helpful.
Janice Runswick you're welcome, Janice, and glad it helped. Here's an intro video about why I created Ying & Yang Living, and if you like my channel, please subscribe --> th-cam.com/video/c7VOYhdcqrA/w-d-xo.html
If you try u will get better at this just like me, I never new how to use it I looked at the directions and it worked for me when I was about 5 or 6 years old at the restaurant
I'm left handed so learning this properly is going to be even more difficult.. challenge accepted.
Don't give up cause practice makes perfect!
not really im left handed and i was taught wrong as a child but enough that i naturally started using them right as a adult the only thing that tends to happen is you start to feel like your doing it wrong like some sort of magical thing was supose to happen when you used chop sticks but i prefer chop chops over forks now adays where more uses and idk it just feels cleaner to me.. if you need any help send me a message and we can see whats going wrong good luck
Enigmatic801 samee
Enigmatic801 i know how to use chopstick AND LEFTHANDED
im also a lefthander and its the same thing :/
I don't want to sound creepy or anything but you are really beautiful!
that's not creepy, that's nice compliment, so thank you.
Hello there. I had a pair of chopsticks in a set of utensils I take with myself when going to work or for longer travels. I learned how to hold them correctly pretty soon as I looked it up. It's a nice little aluminium set from China, but I have never been to true Asian restaurants. Could you please tell me when may I expect to use them, what sorts of food require them? Thank you in advance.
HunGredy that's like asking when you'll need to use a fork and spoon.
she looks adorable
Jimin Stob It Armyyyy 💞🙋
Arigatooooo!!!! I really needed to learn how to hold & use chopsticks because some of my friends and I will go to a asian restaurant on our last day of school to celebrate!!!
Very helpful! My sticks always crossed over and made a mess, now that I did this it works much better! Thanks
Me in the beginning: 3 minutes to learn this simple skill is a lot
Me after watching it for the 87th time: well, at least now I know how to hold one stick :(
I am currently in an asian restaurant eating sushi for the first time, thank you SOOOO MUCH
Wyatt Meyer . MN
I brought some home from a restaurant. Been practicing with little things on my desk. When I get it mastered, then I am going to try it left handed. Thanks
Loved this tutorial, it was simple yet very easy !! Thankyou so much !!!
She is so right about us believing all Asians know karate. Lol.
So there is no chopstick in my house i just use a ballpen aand it didnt go as plan
Dave DoesDave LOL!
Wow, this is so awesome. I learned how to hold chopsticks a year ago but I've been having a hard time mastering my skills because I raise my elbow and my chopsticks always cross. Now that I'm lowering my elbow at a 45 degree angle I always have a firm grip on my food. Thank you Moon Cho for your amazing video!!

No, we don't
Lol I only know how to study, eat and sleep well

Moon Cho if your phone gets wet just place it in a bag of rice, and it'll also attract an asian that will fix it
This was very helpful! Thank you. :)

Thanks for this video! My sister had spent a couple months in Asia for school, now her Asian friends are coming to visit and I can't wait to impress them.. if nothing else, avoid looking like a train wreck
I was practicing with strawberry Pocky! lol
*saws one piece of rice between of chopsticks*
Me: Nah whatever *gets spoon*
Thanks a million, maam . In the past , I 'd meekly request for forks and spoons . Now , I ll proudly ask for chopsticks .
Watched the video 4 times finally got it thanks!!! ✊🏿✊🏿
You guys are awesome..
Thank you for this helpful tutorial, I'm moving to Japan soon and am kinda hoping to fit in a little better by learning the simple things, how to use chopsticks, make bento boxes, the honorifics system and of course I need to perfect my Japanese. Wish me luck! :3
Unicornsandbutterflies Good luck and sounds like a wonderful opportunity!
What?!?!?
Good Luck! Did you get a job in japan or something? Sounds cool! :)
Mina Begum I'm moving in with a Japanese family I know, I've been given an opportunity to go to school there :p
Unicornsandbutterflies oh wow that sounds really good, i wish i could study somewhere cool like that haha. I hope you have fun there! Stay safe :)
I like learning things from smiling soft spoken lady. (A similar video taught me how to make rice without a rice cooker). If I want to be talked down to while attempting a skill I'll consult my own mother. Thank you for the video, it was both soothing and encouraging.
Thank you very much for the video. This goes to show that you're never to old to learn.

this video seemed very helpful to many, but I still don't get the hang of it :(. guess a fork is all I can ever use

Mike Hawk rudeeee.
Mike Hawk shut up. you're a little kid that doesn't know what he's talking about. now leave me alone cuz i don't wanna deal with you and your shit
You are a very Rude Little Boy. You need to grow up and stop being racist
I learned about 25 years ago how to hold chopsticks (the improper way), and had been using the method ever since... I came across your video tonight, and tried your method, and it felt very uncomfortable, as you warned.
However... I remember my mother (I'm 45 btw) telling me how beautiful my penmanship was as a child, until I entered 3rd grade, and the teacher told me I was holding my pencil improperly... after that, and the scolding and retraining, my penmanship went to crap... for the rest of my life... -just following an old experience.. Thanks for the informative video ;)
Robert Folsom you're welcome, Robert. Thank you for sharing that story, so the lesson is go with what makes you happy and comfortable!
Robert Folsom I really do despise the "means above the ends" method of modern education. The whole point of using a writing utensil is to write with it. That's it. If you have great penmanship, who cares how you go about having it? Everyone is different and learns differently so why do teachers continue to force a certain way of doing things unto us?
Don't you wish you could tell your third grade self to continue using your method and ignore the retraining?
OvoJeGovno Because there is only one way and that is their way...
Which is something I learned that is not true in my 15 to 20 years working with computers. Sometimes, there are many ways to solve a problem... and which way is best depends on the person (and the computer)
Yay 🎉 now I can use them the right way. Thanks
Same thing here this was REALLY REALLY help full 😊
I can't seem to get that "teeter tottering" effect. I'm holding them right but I can't cry them to move ;-;
***** It's because your hand is not used to it, so at first it's hard, but practice makes perfect! Here's my new intro video about why I created Ying & Yang Living --> th-cam.com/video/c7VOYhdcqrA/w-d-xo.html
Meghan Mccutcheon Armyy
how many years does it take to finish that bowl ? :P lmao
LIFE SAVER!!! I have a dinner at an Asian restaurant and I didn't want to sit there jabbing the chopsticks into the sushi because I don't know what to do. Thanks to you, I figured this out and now I won't be embarrassed
Its super easy to use and no one thought me how to use at all self thought👍👍🙌🙌😱😱😁😁
Bruh...that was like 2 grains of rice 😂😂😂
I'm Asian and this video helped me in ways you can't even fathom ;) let's just say it's no coincidence chopsticks were invented by Asians.
+MarkoftheAustinStone glad it helped, Mark!
but, i'm going to keep looking until i find the perfect thing that i'm ready for! so- this video was another video that makes me think more about what i'm going to chose!
great video! thank you so much.
Just as a fun fact...
If you are in an Asian restaurant in Germany and ask for a bowl and chop stick, they glare... unless you are of Asian descent and look like it. You are not expected to know how to pick up food with "two knitting needles". ;)
CologneCarter stereotypes people have, like people think all Asians know how to do kung fu
yingandyangliving Isn't that only the Chinese who all know kung fu? ;)
yeah, I'm Korean so I should only know karate! HA!!
really? i never got that glare.
Jessica Williams I did, lots of times, but always in smaller cities and towns which are less frequented by tourists.
But to be fair, things are about to change and change fast during the last few years.
Will you actually pick up and eat that rice piece by piece? 2:36
the rice sticked // it's correct but she should've used like a pork cutlet or something
Practice. If it's sticky rice, that's fairly easy, but if it's not, that requires a bit of effort. You have to go directly down from above and gently grip the rice with just the right amount of force.
Thank you, this has been helpful. I love your videos and I love how you present them with your light-heartened, feel-at-home guides. Keep doing more because they are good. :D
Thank you and, yes, I shall continue.
Great tutorial! Now it's time to practice, practice, practice!
Can you wash and re use wooden chopsticks?
Joshua The Dude yes, you can wash wooden spoon, if that is the question! Here's a video about why I created Ying & Yang Living, and if you like my channel, please subscribe! --> th-cam.com/video/c7VOYhdcqrA/w-d-xo.html
Yeah
now I'm a ninja
What ?
Thank you. Seriously. That was incredibly helpful!
Yes...thanks its really helpful on your video...
Gomawo 💝
taile janis ta ?
Ahh aju vuLi kHanxu chopstick lay aauxa :)
hasais
''its like saying we all know how to do karate''
SO YOU DONT?
OMG, I laughed so hard.
thank you I might not get it 100% but I won't give up.
Thank u sister for teaching how to hold the chopsticks. It was my long time desire.😀
how do you eat soup with them?
gigicaly try a fork!
If there's anything in the soup you can pick up with the chopsticks, I've seen people do that first, then drink the soup.
A
The correct way is to successfully eat with them, that's all that matters.
We love chop sticks and are they part of our every day use....and we're indigenous Canadians lol...hubby got me in to using them and now we have a container of them. I even got my hubby and my son each a nice set from China Town in Chicago one time. They were so happy....
thank you so helpful!!
still can't hold chopsticks
practice makes perfect.
Samantha Miller just keep trying. It might be hard at first, but don't worry. If you really want to learn how to use chopsticks, don't give up.
I don't think all Asians hold their chopsticks the same way.
Thanks hopefully now I can use it if I ever go to a restaurant, and I have some at home to practise with :)
You're welcome. Practice will definitely help because the muscles are not used to it at first!
Thank you for sharing this video! It totally helped me use chopsticks.
WTH! Asian living?!? All Asian restaurants?!? C'mon!!! You do know that there many countries and cultures across Asia where chopsticks are not used at all. I want to judo chop or karate kick people when they don't believe that I'm from Asia while having to explain how geography works and that it's not just one big country/state.
thats what even i wanted to say. lol. some people thinks only japanese, chinese and koreans are asians.
@@_nahlaesha_1722 but....
This didn't help me much to be honest. "Look how I hold my chopsticks! Oh wait, you can't because my hand is covering them up almost completely!"
What are you, some kind of rebel?
What are you, some kind of rebel?
@@dh-uo4lt this is such a childish comment😂😂😂
thank you so much for helping me yin yang gracias!🤗🤗🤗🤗
I do know how to use chopsticks but my grandma told me not to cross over.at school I've started using my pens and doing it the right way.i was right but I didn't put my middle finger in the center,thank u so much
Why is this video any more than a minute long?
+Stephen McVicker Because some of us non-Asians don't get it. Sorry. You were more than welcome to stop watching after a minute!
Its just like holding a pencil, kinda
+David Villarreal yes! Here's my new intro video about why I created Ying & Yang Living, so you know what my channel is all about --> th-cam.com/video/c7VOYhdcqrA/w-d-xo.html
Super good thank you!
Thanks for the lesson!
Wait, you don't all know how to do karate?
+Nate Thomas EVERY SINGLE ONE IN JAPAN can do karate. OBVIOUSLY*sarcasm*
Thats like saying "wait, all americans dont play football?"
Thats like saying "wait, all americans dont play football?"
still a useless way to eat rice! all hail lord spoon!
hahahahahaha
Waleed Raja In korea instead of eating rice with chopsticks, we use spoons even if its sticky rice
ALL HAIL THE LORD OF HANDS!
Nope fuck spoons
we indians be like.. ALL HAIL LORD HANDS
Thank you ying yang living for this amazing lesson from tripoli lebanon 👍🏽😽
The way she described how NOT to hold the chopsticks, is the EXACT way i do it and the reason i came here to learn, lol! What a coincidence!
