I can only speak for myself as an American, but those soda sizes are insane here. I don’t eat fast food often, but when I do I just get a bottled water. I swear the soda sizes alone are half the reason our country has such an obesity issue.

[@iu2]

Yes. Historically, soda cans in Korea were tall and slim, containing 250mL, which is 8.5 ounces. American cans are 12 ounces. These days, cans in Korea are 12 ounces, which is in line with the increase in obesity rates. Even movie theaters are selling giant sodas, which was unheard of two decades ago.

[@deenzmartin6695]

this doesn't even come close to scratching the surface as the reason for why the U.S. is full of BALUGAS.

[@janicewolk6492]

I think the sugar industry in the US has been abusing consumers forever. Very, very addictive.

[@iu2]

@janicewolk6492 Yes, because the sugar industry has led a campaign since the 1960s to blame fat for heart disease, when it's sugar that causes heart disease, not fat. The increased consumption of sugar is directly correlated with heart disease rates. This is causation, not just correlation. But don't get carried away with fats. Vegetable (seed) oil is almost as bad as sugar.

[@silvana246]

It's because they expect the cup to be filled with ice to the top, and then add soda

[@Ballroomblitz255]

In Canada the fast foo places adopted American sizing on soft drinks as well, with free refills. The new American small drink size was our Canadian standard regular or medium so quite a bit more so we always get small rather than medium in the past. For enjoying time alone i am the same way, changed when i had kids as i had to get them to sports/friends and get togethers but not that they are adults i get my quiet me time back and I love it. One last thing please try the McDouble from McDonalds, best burger on their menu and you can get a McDouble combo with an extra McDouble for the same price or less that the Quarter Pounder combo. I find it taste very similar however is less dry / more moist and seeing it is a smaller burger you compensate by getting 2 and the overall cost is less. Cheers, i enjoy watching your content.

[@Vincent-ig2cb]

Hi there, from the UK. Sad to see you tucking into fast food when you have such a wonderfully healthy food culture there in SK. I guess its Friday night, so its what I call 'comfort food night'. I do the same. The world-wide fast food culture is doing more harm to us all than we like to believe, I'm talking of Ultra Processed Foods, leading to obesity and even more dangerous health conditions. You Koreans have the natural advantage of being slim and generally petite (no offence meant), but its a good starting point. -Kimchi forever!

[@occipitalneuralgia2339]

It is so funny as I detest American food as an American and I love Korean and Thai traditional food as it is so healthy. Other countries around the world are enjoying western foods like McDonalds, Burger King, Dunkin Donuts Starbucks, pizza, and more. I do not drink alcohol either. I really enjoy your channel and hope to visit Korea soon.

Hi, I'm genuinely curious about this so I hope you don't mind me asking. How did you manage to learn English? You speak it so well ☺. And then, I'm also quite surprised about the size of your house. Maybe I sound ignorant here but many (if not most) Korean people I watched here in KZbin seemed to stay in a rather cramped, small apartment, so yours is quite a refreshing view. Thought fewer people live in landed property. Just wondering if you stay in the countryside? The journey you filmed on your car always seemed so peaceful. Love it. And love how real you've always been with the topics you brought up. 🙌🏼

My favourite is the Quarter Pounder Cheese Burger from MaccyD's as well. I always get a shake though, not soft drink. I usually get tartare sauce in which to dip the fries. Unfortunately, there is not MaccyD's anywhere near where I live now. I am also a non-drinker; however, that does not stop me from socialising. Dinner or coffee with friends, attending language conversation groups, neighbourhood clean-up groups and other local events.

I noticed that too when I visited Korea! Harsh fluorescent lights everywhere! I understand businesses but I was really shocked that people use those lights even in their homes. I only use warm lights in my house because they are so cozy. Can’t imagine having fluorescent lights in my home. I know it sounds stupid but it makes a huge difference to me

Korean homes have such clean floors.

[@micheleracine2871]

You have really beautiful plants in your house. Did you know that plants reduce carbon dioxide and convert it into oxygen. Healthy humidity also improves the quality of the air in your house. Research has shown that having plants in your home reduces stress. Being able to see the greenery of plants around you has a calming effect, lowering blood pressure and consequently making you feel more relaxed and ultimately, happier. The plants are also an effective and natural way to get rid of cigarette smoke odours and pollutants.

As a Korean Canadian who is a fast food freak, fast food is high quality in Canada (in America it's horrible), but Korea is even of better quality and cheaper (mainly because of no sales tax). I speak from a lot of experience living on the border to the US and having eaten there countless times. The portions are big, but the food has no flavour and it's not even cheap anymore. Fast food was good and cheap up until about 20 years ago (even in America).

[@roberto344]

Dude, just an average American man here. South Korea is awesome, I lived there a year while in the US Air Force and it was a great experience. Picked up chopsticks but it took several months. Very sad to hear the birthrates are so low. We need more South Korea in the world. It made me laugh when you mentioned not drinking alcohol which made it unpleasant to hang out with friends in the evening - hahahah. So true! Not drinking in SK is a problem, cuz most Koreans are getting as drunk as we do in the USA :-) I've spent my whole life not really liking alcohol but drinking anyway because almost all my friends drink and I like hanging with my friends. It's hard to navigate! Just drink enough to be with friends and never drink alone to reset. The older you get, the harder it is to stay a true introvert - just a fair warning :-) I have two tricks: start slow, just sip and nurse your drinks, then after everyone else is five drinks in and your one drink in, then pick up the pace with a few drinks to end the night on a high note - but it's hard, your friends know if you're nursing your drink and not keeping up - they will pick on your ruthlessly. It's good to see how the younger generation is having the exact same problems I've always had. The second trick only works when not at a bar or restaurant, but out with friends at a lake/pool/park/backyard/etc. I bring an eye dropper bottle of whiskey, some bitters and zero calorie fruit sodas and make super light mixed drinks with just four shots of eye dropper whiskey in each can. That works, I'm still going through the ritual of emptying cans with friends and it has some alcohol, not none. At the end of the night I've had maybe one to 1.5 whole shots.

[@roberto344]

My year in SK was brutal for the drinking. My SK friends would take us downtown and drink us under the table, my American coworkers would drink me under the table. Beer machines right outside my dorm door in the AF barracks. We didn't lose a single airman to the NK's, but we would lose a few who'd get lost in the snow and die, just trying to get back to base completely hammered. I had to drag a friend out of an iced over bingo ditch in the winter and get him back on base, he'd have been one of the ones who died if I hadn't pulled him out - he was so drunk he had no idea what was happening. He stumbled to the bank to pee and the bingo ditch just ate him, the more he struggled the wetter he got.
