Aside from Dara always promoting and uplifting the Philippines and Filipino people and culture, we have Jessica Lee and Sylvia Kim next in line. Thank you so much for exploring and sharing us to the world.

[@evamariecanoza6742]

and dont forget Ryan Bang, he is proud to be Filipino citizen.

[@earolljane6278]

Koreans lang ba mini-mean mo kasi madaming foreigners kasi mas grabeh pa mag promote sa kanila.

[@roodesian]

you mean female korean right? coz we have ryan bang, jiho bae and somes.

[@jhoyagoya7366]

Don't forget, Jinho Bae

[@jeo27]

@@earolljane6278 yes po. sa mga female koreans lang na pinapanuod ko. madami pa nga po iba pero di ko usually napapanuod. nakakatuwa silang lahat.

Eric knowing Spanish gives him an edge in pronouncing Tagalog correctly

[@AngryKittens]

Well he's American. Heh. Spanish is almost a second language in the US. Everyone knows at least a little Spanish.

[@parkhae-il9211]

him being american and learning spanish, is a great edge for learning tagalog. it's like the back of his hand at this point

[@annejia5382]

+Korean tbh, since asian languages usually have more of an open-sound, so for the malay-rooted words it would be easier.

[@Lunafreya_Nox]

@@AngryKittens American what?.. Citizenship or bloodlines. Coz u won't associate him as Real American if he's not half american.

[@AngryKittens]

@@Lunafreya_Nox Bloodlines? "Real" American? What time period are you from? The early 1800s?

[@pinkyminky9057]

Imagine Eric Nam learning Tagalog and adapting the Filipino humour, he'd be so hilarious 😆

[@Zehahahahahahahahahahahaha]

Just like Ryan Bang

[@thyluve]

manefesting eric nam kanal humour era

[@9m_curves]

Eric is so fun sa interview haha as an experienced host himself, lagi syang may follow-up sa questions ni Jessica 😄sa background ni Jessica sa idol industry, nafollow na nia ung format ng korean shows which I really like. sana magkafood show silang dalawa. nagutom tuloy ako haha

[@kayerillera]

He's adding to the conversation so it won't fall flat as he probably sensed that Jessica is nervous as a host himself

[@aejoymamotosfermin2497]

Eric Nam already knows a lot about the Philippines. Pinoy na Pinoy din ung pronunciation nya ng mga Filipino words.. we love you both! 😘😘

[@loudeillunzaga4476]

Maybe because he learned spanish

[@caramelsimon7472]

I think him knowing spanish helps a lot. because if he just knows korean and english, his pronunciation of tagalog words will be a little off. he's amazinggg

[@aaronkylearador9253]

🤖

[@drlc5639]

​​@@loudeillunzaga4476yes because of the Spanish. He effortlessly twist his tongue hehehe Filipinos is the most adaptable tongue in the world because we learned English and our native language which is influenced by Spanish... That is why we are one of the largest producers of call centers in the world.

[@sowyyyy5113]

Yan nanaman yung proud pipino 🤢 HAGAHAHA

[@natsumegami]

I love Eric Nam's humor! If he learns Tagalog, he'd have the same vibe as Jinho Bae. Thank you, Jessica, for being an advocate of sharing the Filipino food and culture to your fellow Koreans and of course, to everyone who watches your channel. ❤️

[@keumristi1021]

His pronounciation on the Filipino words is on point! I think his knowledge on spanish really helped a lot, wow!

[@ariesalcaide7768]

Eric Nam knows so much. You can tell that he has travelled to a lot of places. A very admirable person.

[@Snhoonie]

Unexpected collab

[@jeanskerl4625]

Very fast learner talaga itong si Eric Nam. Ayos!👍🏽 galing niya matoto ng tagalog.😂

Feels a lot closer to eric when he knows a lot about ph and when he learns so fast about the culture and it’s so fun to watch him

[@mariastephaniedolosa4468]

Eric Nam is one of the underrated singers in south korea. I love all of his songs❤ and i love watching his daebak show vids

[@dyakejax]

Omg i can imagine now jessica being a host of one of the fan meetings of idols because she explains things very well! LUV THIS COLLAB~~ LOVE ERIC TOO!

[@Diyel]

The editor clowning Jessica for saying that Adobo is her fave when even us knows that it's Sisig 😂😂😂

[@Traveller127]

Jessica Lee is the famous Korean celebrity vlogger in the Philippines. Almost 100% Korean Vloggers pros and newbies in the country that I had followed know her and there were several times they mentioned her on their vlogs wishing they could be same like Jessica.

[@airasalvador5367]

Ang galing ng chemistry niyo. Ang gaan panuorin nito. Walang awkward moments 😊

[@quayquay2395]

Eriiiic Naaam!!! ❤❤❤ My gosh, so glad you had him as a guest and let him tried some filipino dishes. He has the prettiest voice ever! One of my fave artist!!🤌🏻😘

[@vanRedempti]

13:08 that reaction says it all. I'm not the one who cooked it but somehow I feel so proud that he had that kind of reaction to the food.

[@MJ-zg8yg]

Eric and Jessica are those two people you would love to include in your friend circle. They're very humble and would really be game for anything! Love these two!

[@RJGonzales09]

Gosh! It's my first time ever watching Eric Nam in a video, I heard him may times but never got a chance to watch any of him. He is so eloquent and very humorous! Thanks, Jessica! This was a lit collab! Mga LODS! 🥰😅

[@kaiaraia5792]

Watch him in his Dive Studio vlogs, he's witty, the talks are both fun and sensible.

[@RJGonzales09]

Ohhh! Thankyyy for the reco! @@kaiaraia5792

[@shyressaloma4826]

He is so humble and friendly❤

[@dhanzy24]

Eric can pronounce some of tagalog words perfectly because he is fluent in spanish😉. And Eric collabing everywhere is so unexpected 😍

[@hugzmamz5133]

Madali manlang matuto Tagalog hindi naman mahirap

[@declassifiedgold]

Now that you mentioned it.. make sense. bro is so smart tho

[@breizelle]

​@@hugzmamz5133why can't u just be happy for Eric? so bitter

[@JojieCerteza]

@@hugzmamz5133- all languages are hard to learn. If you meant pronounciation - yes many countries are phonetic in pronouncing - and Filipino is being one of them that's easy to pronounce if you understand phonetics - except for ng.. at the begining.. many people struggle with that.

[@alex-xq3gh]

Their energy actually matches so well!! I really enjoyed this :))

[@roommate8301]

Their chemistry is soooo good!!! Its so fun to watch!!!!

[@keishatabi32]

this is so fun to watch. the connection between eric and jessica are so good. love it so much

[@sweetmusx]

I've learned that Okra is not tagalog or english word. It comes from lgbo language in Nigeria where the plant is called okwuru (which became ochra and okra) and it was in use in english in the 18th century 😊

[@user-ih2hs8rn6w]

Jessica is really diversed in Filipino's culture... ❤ Lodi kita talaga

[@seiiirujpn411]

Nakakataba Ng puso, dahil bukod Kay sandara at sa ibang influencers, k-pop idols, maknae and other idols supported pH andito din sina Jessica lee at iba pang mga k-pop KZbinrs na nanirahan na din dito sa bansa natin and tinatangkilik din nila mga foods natin and mga most best destination na merun tayo pati beaches, helps other foreign to recognize how great pH is, and more more supporting Koreans to pH and more collabs to come.

[@jeeznutsdtd]

To see you both in one day just makes me so happy. This is one of your best collabs, Jessica. Eric Nam's vibe and energy really gets me every time. First saw him as a guest in Korean Englishman back then and he had that same energetic and funny personality so I already figured he would be a life of the party on your vlog, too. I wasn't wrong. 😆

Eric Nam is so cool and adorable. Love him already 😍

[@Minni_oreo]

I can’t help but ship these two. They look so good together, like the chemistry, and they understand each other really well😍

[@declassifiedgold]

I swear Eric is everywhere 😂 Thank you, both! I love you both this is such an unexpected collab ❤

[@liafadhilahs]

he was on Indonesian karaoke like about a week ago.. he's literally everywhere

[@maybsai]

i love these buwan ng wika specials!! goes to show how much you truly appreciate filipino culture. been here since your trying mang inasal video T.T keep it up, jessica! :D

[@IvyLaughton]

I’ve been away from home for so long. Jessica knows so much about Philippines now more than I do. I love watching your vlogs. Eric was a hoot too ☺️ gonna check out his music now 💓

[@pinkpanda2947]

I really like him talaga, parang ang wholesome nya for some reason ❤

[@heylo757]

Great job, Jessica! Eric just never gives a bad interview. So humble but damn smart. He picked up on a tendency to repeat words for emphasis and of course the Spanish based phrases. Also he had a short run food show, so describing these HELLA delish dishes was def in his wheelhouse. MC, podcaster, app developer...Just talented, beyond the music. Can't wait for the new album!

[@paLaLo101010]

Hey Jess, your editors are really great! Love the effects especially the flip on the "omsim". BTW, love your hair!

[@byGracie]

Eric is so well rounded na Hindi mahirap e push Ang interview questions ❤

[@alexa.2403]

Abd the fact that it goes two way cuz the way he asks jessica the same question too. Maybe because of his MC skills hahshs

[@puzzledmind]

This was an unexpected collab. I was just rewatching Eric’s interview with Taecyeon last night and now he’s in Jessica’s video. I love this collab. 😌

[@gabrielle3868]

He is always too good at everything. He communicates and blends well. And those are definitely his charms. I can't wait for his full album to come out! LODI TALAGA 💗 tysm Jessica. You've explained and carried this interview so well~

[@ILoveGyuSoMuch]

Whoah whoah 😳😲 It's just so unexpected 👏 Kudos to Ate Jess🥳 I'm so amazed by the fact that Eric Nam guessed the origin of the word "Omsim" perfectly despite knowing the fact that he can understand Spanish. And we Filipinos have so many Spanish loan words haha potek kay Eric Nam ko lng nalaman at narealize na spanish word pala ang "Mismo" 🤦😂🤣

how is everything about this video so cool like how this is just trying out food but ugh i think the both of you are just really good communicators idk how i got that vibe but it was so easy to watch and listen to your ideas and back and forth communication couldn't get any better with the restaurant being so aptly named
