Please do a little more research on Korea. Gwangjang Market is a place that foreigners and Koreans should never go to as it is notorious for being overpriced. Foreigners reading this post should go to Cheongnyang Gyeongdong Market. They are friendly and give you 3 to 4 times the price for sundae or totbokki. And at least they don't scam or rip you off.
I know better than to watch your food blogs hungry, but yet here I am wanting all of what you had and trying to figuring out what the heck to do for dinner 🤣. I love tteokbokki and enjoy adding the sauce to other items to get an added sweet spicy flavor. From the beginning of you both seemed adventurous to try different cultural foods, but how has your willingness to try things like the blood sausage changed since starting on your travels?
Oooooh such a good idea to put the tteokbokki sauce on other food items! I should have put it on the blood sausage to mask the flavour a bit 😂 I think when it comes to food, Mico has always been adventurous and I have tried to take a page from his book and be adventurous too. TH-cam actually really helped us to learn more about food when we visit a country because we enjoy filming/editing food videos, but that means we have to research what to eat and where to eat in order to make a god video. Filming a video about food gives us a good excuse to go places we might not go if it weren't for the video, and spend money on extra things that we might not let ourselves spend money on if we were just traveling. TH-cam has been great in that regard
For the tteokbokki they often have flat cakes pieces in the dish aswell (yours not, though the rice cakes were a bit bigger), the sauce is key and varies strongly from place to place. The balance of sweetness and spicyness is key (no spiciness is not that great), other versions exist like with cheese sauce. If you have sundae, then dip it in the sauce of the tteokbokki ❤️
I'm all hungry now lol but you're right, at least in my opinion. Myeongdong street food market is considered more expensive than traditional markets, even a heavily tourist popular one like Gwangjang. they do have yummy stuff and things that you don't see often in other places, but you definitely get to pay for it there. also it made me giggle that Nicole was okay with the blood in the blood sausage (sundae), but had to overcome the thought of it being an intestine because that's what sausages are usually made in 🤭 or maybe you don't eat sausages at all for that reason lol (and yes, I know synthetic casings are also a thing today, but still)
it always amuses me when people are turned off by the intestines. maybe the blood is a bit intimidating, but i'm sure everyone has had some sort of real sausage like a frank that has the same type of casing on it. maybe it just looks more real when they display it? lol. anyways enjoyed your food tour!
Yeah it's always kind interesting how different cultures respond to it when the same food is presented in different ways. I (Mico) enjoyed it though. Reminded me of other foods from back in the Philippines :)
Thank you for sharing all the great street food:)
Our pleasure! Thanks so much for watching!
