Most Asians from the different countries like it a lot when a foreigner tries their best to observe local customs, etiquette, and manners as it's seen as the person caring enough to try to be polite.

@matthewkim81587 жыл бұрын
When they say eating "loudly" they're talking about chopping and slurping the food to the point where you can hear the activities in your mouth. When Japan ruled Korea, their culture (that includes table manners) were enforced on Koreans to the point where "Korean" table traditions were almost lost. Rich Korean's do not eat like the "common" folk of Korea. However, when soju is involved, toss everything out the window.

When I went out with my Korean friend to a Korean restaurant, the waitress came over to our table to ask what we would like to order. Here in Canada, and I'm pretty sure in most western places, everyone at the table will tell the waitress what they want to order individually, so I naturally asked the waitress for what I wanted to eat and waited for my friend to ask her for what she wanted to eat, but she stayed quiet! For like 10 seconds! Then she realized that I wasn't gonna order for her so she asked for what she wanted... I asked her out of curiosity later why she thought I was gonna order for her, and she said that it's just common in Korea for guys to order for the girl as well. So keep that in mind everyone out there!

Taty Rosso she probably means dont hold one in each hand continuously and eat from both at the same time (using both hands like you would a knife and fork) use one hand when eating with one utensil (chopsticks or spoon) if your using your chopsticks to put food onto your spoon so you can then eat with just the spoon then i'm sure it doesnt matter as its considered serving your not eating from the chopsticks and the spoon. like some people use a spoon with pasta to assist them to get it on the fork better (which they are actually eating from, they may use the spoon to help them serve there food but they don't eat directly from the spoon.

EmmaAppleBerry Taty Rosso Actually, I believe she means don't hold them both in one hand at the same time. We (my Korean relatives and I) do that at home all the time, but they told me not to do it out at restaurants. If you're having trouble picturing it, I'll try to describe it more: You have both the soup spoon and the chopsticks in your right hand, flipping back and forth between them to quickly switch between eating soups with the spoon and picking things up with the chopsticks. For instance, while you're using the spoon, you hold it in your fingers with the chopstick's handle end also between your fingers but the food end of the chopsticks pointed down to your wrist. Then, when you want to use the chopsticks, you flip the spoon down so it's pointing toward your wrist and flip the chopsticks out so you can grab food with them. It's quicker (and lazier) than setting the spoon down and picking up the chopsticks, then setting the chopsticks down and picking up the spoon. Make sense now? :)

Been in Korea for 6yrs, here's what I've witnessed 1 - Chew and slurp louder than a Korean old man hocks before he discharges a loogie the size of your fist. 2 - Eat with your mouth open, but cover it when address an older person at the table. 3 - Use chopsticks to eat cake, it's the height of sophistication. 4 - Compliment the foreigner's ability to use chopsticks as you would compliment a child who properly uses the potty for the first time. 5 - Non-alcoholic beverages will ALWAYS be served at a lukewarm temperature. No exceptions. 6 - When in company, say 맛있어요 every 5sec, even if you're eating pizza topped with honey and kimchi.

Thank you for this thread. I watched your video and I read the comments on here to understand the South Koreans better- interesting. When I first started watching Korean drama series two months ago, I noticed that constant eating and excessive drinking seemed to be portrayed as accepted social activities to celebrate with colleagues after work. I started surfing the net to get to know the actors I liked. I was amazed at the different habits which seemed ok to them but which frankly made me cringe - the slurping sound when drinking coffee and the smacking noise when eating … especially gulping a lot of food at one go. I am intrigued. What I was taught when young - to cover my mouth when I yawn, to drink and eat quietly and not make any slurping/smacking sounds - seems unnatural to the few Korean actors I admire. The images of them I had created in my mind, their personas, were shattered. I didn’t know whether to be disgusted or to laugh. I chose to accept the latter. Life is too short. “It is not our differences that divide us. It is our inability to recognise, accept and celebrate those differences” DC

yeah, Ive been living in korea for more than a year and no matter if I am having meal with coworkers or friends or any other Korean, the slurping and chewing loudly for me looks a little bit like a competition among them as if the one who does it the loudest is the one its enjoying the food the most. Ive been told that they do it because it is a "good manner" and it shows appreciation for the food. Ive also got some looks from many people if I don't chew loudly and being asked if I didnt like the meal because I am being quiet. It is interesting that she mentions it twice in the video, this might be her opinion cuz it doesn't seem to be a rule here. There is also an interesting thing she didn't mention and how other eastern countries deal with big amounts of food and how its shared among the guests, you are supposed to serve a decent portion in a small plate or if its too hot put it there to cool it down a little bit while combining it with some rice. Ive seen and told that in Korea isn't well seen that you lift your small plate from the table, in this case your have to approach to the plate as much as you can (a good example is when Koreans eat noodles and they are not sliced with scissors like in the beginning of this video) In japan and china is ok to grab the small plate you are given at the beginning of every meal and put a normal portion and lift it to a closer distance from your mouth so your posture always remains straight. This small difference once brought the enormous and profound hate some koreans have against japanese because they have been told or heard from japanese people that "koreans eat like dogs on their plates" or "their mouths go to the food and not the food to their mouths" I am not trying to start a fire here, all i want to point out is that some of this differences are really interesting for me from the point of view of the people I know in korea and that they have shared with me. I am mexican and my traditions also had been criticized in the way mexicans put everything in a tortilla and how we enjoy eating with our hands using tortillas.

If you are in a more formal situation like meeting your fiance's parents, you better follow these etiquette or they will think you are uneducated and cannot tell the difference between formal and informal settings.

I was raised that making noise, slurping and what not deserves a free pass to the street, if you show what you said to the chef it would be seen as you are laughing too him/her and every single meal has it's special tableware.

I found that being left-handed in Korea is interesting, as the left hand is "unclean", used only for nasty bathroom stuff (Sssh...guess which hand I use). I went along with the punctilio, but occasionally shocked my hosts. As the distinguished guest, I was usually honored by have the host hand me his grease-smeared soju glass and to fill it (right-handed, of course). I would then bottoms-up and repeat the ritual with my glass. I handled the glass properly but poured from the bottle with my left hand! There were gasps of horror around the table.

3:07 I'm confused, didn't you use both in the scene right before?

In rule #7's second/preferred scene, the lady is elegantly using her chopsticks to place noodles into her spoon, but rule #8 advises against holding chopsticks and a spoon at the same time. May I have some clarification, please? :)

So many table manners, who wants to eat with all these rules? lol....I'm half Japanese so I grew up being told that slurping your noodles is a way to show the cook you are enjoying the food. We hold our rice bowls when we eat. And place our chopsticks on our bowl or dish when we are done....now that I've been living in Korea for 10 months, I've had to break those habits when I'm eating at a restaurant. I don't want to seem rude. But I have been guilty of doing some of these things...although some of these rules can be confusing because, from what I've seen, Koreans slurp hot soup (which I've heard it is done to make easier to eat since you aren't suppose to blow on your soup). I thought it was odd at first that scissors were given to cut our noodles. In Japan and China, it is considered bad luck. But I guess Koreans don't believe that. Not that I do either.

I know it's upsetting when some KZbinr fabricates phony rules for her own video. Koreans don't have that many rules. Except for #9 (sticking chopsticks in a bowl of rice), it's all good.

Why do you guys think she is making these rules up? Many of these etiquette did become more lenient but they are still there.

Renegade Tokki did my comment sound like I thought she was making them up?

J Nomura Sorry - I was directing the comment at Danielle. I didn't realize her name wasn't tagged when I made the reply.

These rules like the ones about food noises are signs she's from a very western-influenced home. Until the American military came during the Korean War, the culture was almost identical to that of China and Japan in many respects including etiquette. My ex was Korean and and slurped and "smacked" foods telling me it was polite as they came from a traditional household. It was the US army during wartime that introduced and made commonplace compared to the rest of eastern Asia many western customs and religious ideas. Christianity and circumcision were unheard of in Korea until the Korean War, and it was quite polite and complimentary to the chef to slurp noodles. Now it's like a 1950's America with the values and ideas that are foreign to the land being seen as traditional. Same with many places affected by colonialism and militarization.

actually many people hold spoon in one hand and chopsticks in the other. slurping is meant to show that u are enjoying ur food. its normal in korea. but i guess now that there are many foreigners, people are now learning from them that it is bad manners to slurp or chew loudly. i however dont chew loudly cuz i dont like it but when im eating noodles i do slurp.
