This week's FAPFAP came a bit early, because we're about to drive to the airport for our flight to LA! So here's our video of what a Korean Rest Stop is like and the food we go on our way to G-Dragon's Villa :D

[@temiko0]

Simon - that's so mean! My partner counts down to force me to pick too and I hate it! :( The food looked good though, and that metal cup/recycle thing is an awesome idea! We get Nongshim cup/packet noodles here too, and they're my favourite brand (even though they cost more than your run of the mill instant noodles). Have fun in LA!

[@RocketTWORussia]

Hey guise, I think it would be really really great if you started your very own subreddit! I frequent the subreddits of other youtubers and have felt on many occasions that it would be awesome if there was an /r/EYK or something!! Maybe I could help in the creation of said subreddit if you desire....?

[@mariem24601]

So now, whenever you are at a rest stop in Korea, and you see the plastic has been peeled off the massage chair controller, you will know: Simon was there.

[@Chrisisballin]

It was u guys in Malibu. Should have said hi. You guys walked right past me and my gf haha. Good seeing ya in person. :) long time follower here since 08.

[@caseynorlander5948]

LA is pretty cool but the air tastes like piss and the people are assholes (some of them). You guys should check out the Bay Area if you haven't. There's so much stuff to do and the oxygen reminds me of not urine.

[@eatyourkimchi]

English subs are now up!

[@ducan2249]

I love rest stops; the one the video looked really clean and modern!!!

[@KPOPFTW98]

4:25 OHHH I JUST GOT IT. It said RESTRANT on the top and was trying to say restaurant. But Martina did a "rest rant". IM SO DUMB LOL

[@angelicamancenon6045]

I've watched this video many times and I didn't even notice that lol

[@melanietorres9409]

I’m the 70th like

[@hayleybergsma6724]

I LOVE how you just mock the old men in the chairs! I do it too when they spit on the ground a foot away from me and when they stare me out of my clothes when I'm walking down the street.

[@craykang]

I have lived in amercia for 5 years (in korea now) but when you go to an american rest stop its pretty dirty with small restroom and small vending machine. (Just my thoughts on rest stops) Korean rest stops are amazing! Big snack shops, books, shoes, and more. way more things to do in korea rest stops then america. Srry if im wrong ^^ correct me if u like

[@tizben]

Sounds bout right. Sometimes there's a small convenience store.

[@ChrisIsChaotic]

You are 100% correct. xD

[@xxcrazyosakaxx]

You sorry souls have obviously never been to the gloriousness that is Bucky's/Buc-ee's rest stop.

[@Ademious88]

This is so true! When I saw one of these on a variety show, I was like "Oh snap! What kind of magical place is this?? Why do we only get a dirty ass bathroom and bug ridden vending machine? D:" lol

[@romero2g4u]

xxcrazyosakaxx OMG!! lol Only Texans know what Buc-ee's is! lol It's amazing! I always stop there when I come home from college from Dallas to Houston! lol

[@backpackmatt]

I absolutely love watching this awesome dynamic duo and their exotic culinary adventures.

[@TheOakAsWay]

gosh... you two are like my relationship goals

[@blackdog6891]

This comment did not age well

[@basically.amirah5607]

[@Chellekathryn]

oof

[@eatyourkimchi]

We've got Indonesian subs here as well. Yay!

[@tamarayyo]

whaaaat

[@asmadibalkhisabubakar7051]

Make one for Bahasa Malaysia

[@mayangjujungbungaganang1691]

OMG ! Thanks 😍. Such an honor :')

[@JohanaEliz4]

Eat Your Kimchi the one who make the indonesian sub is amazing .. he/she managed to translate this in to easy, cozy conversation style ... not the formal style .. nice! 2 thumbs up to who ever made this ....

[@alifaseptiana3146]

Eat Your Kimchi Kalian keren... Thanks for Bahasa Indonesia sub ^_^v

[@ThePinkPixie3]

That water dispenser was cool!! It's eco friendly and you dont have to pay for water... :D

[@taz82097]

Can you do a tldr on the Brazilian man who had surgery to look like a south korean? I would love to hear your thoughts on that

[@De86ie]

major thumbs up on this one... it really disturbed me so would be interesting to se what eyk has to say about it...

[@Debawcherryinc]

The closest thing we have to that here in Texas is called Buckee's and its a mega gas station rest stop. They are always super clean, have amazing food, sell clothes, usually hunting and fishing items as well, but what everyone goes for is Beaver Nuggets and they are little yummy balls of goodness!

[@theuglykwan]

BlueCherry Mama What exactly are in beaver nuggets? lol

[@mz273]

I love it there so much! It's so clean the bathrooms are the nicest gas station bathrooms I've ever seen!

[@bort3486]

theuglykwan theyre corn puffs apparently (sry i know this is old af n therefore useless xD)

[@sunshineladyxxx7975]

Finally again an Food Adventure Episode ! Great!! Please do more of that!

[@michaelsalazar3626]

You guys are so funny seriously your quirkiness and personalities are perfect so hilarious! Love your videos and always looking forward to the next

[@I_am_Lauren]

That is the nicest looking rest stop I have ever seen! In America you are lucky if you go into the bathroom and the stall door is not broken off.

[@luminousBrink]

Simon and Martina, I love your videos. Seeing South Korea with you guys is incredible and you guys make it so much fun. I love seeing locations and food, even if it's just a rest stop. These types of videos have always been my favorite from you all. Thank you :)

[@leilak409]

You guys crack me up! Love your vids!

[@dumplinglady]

dang so korea even has better rest stops than north america

[@MonsterWand]

IKR

[@kpfighter]

Yeah I actually look forward to visiting rest stops in Korea. In America.. not so much..

[@a_w_8822]

I have a friend in Ontario Canada and they have things called "ON Routes", they are amazing! Very clean and huge washrooms

[@beliling]

***** I live in Canada and have went in On Routes :D they're awesome

[@a_w_8822]

beliling I know Canada needs On Routes, everything is so far away from each other :o

[@ninnichigo]

Omg this is probably my fourth time watching this video and I just realized why Martina went on a rest rant. The sign above her said RESTRANT I thought it said restaurant and that her rant was just random -.-

[@narakuwomita]

loved your rest rant martina

[@AzzieChauWhatDuhPho]

That does not look like a rest area. It looks like a small plaza. The rest area where I'm at is just the restroom, and a truck parking

[@TheAlexisHer]

You guys are so hilarious!! I love it!! I would love to meet you guys one day!

[@sydneybrauer3831]

Well that was the nicest pit stop place I've ever seen! It was really clean and nice looking

[@YX3WQ]

Why does American have to be so cheap. You want a simple bottle of water and sometimes it can even cost like 3 dollars for one dumb bottle. (Depending on where you are). The cups looks like a good idea. More Eco friendly and free!

[@ChrisIsChaotic]

People would steal the cups and ruin it for everyone. ;-;

[@nommernomz]

ChaoticCassidy yeah isn't it nice to know that people in Korea wouldn't steal the cups? :) the thought makes me happy ahha

[@Philanazoie]

I think the word you're looking for is 'expensive' because 3 dollars for a water in your case doesn't seem to be 'cheap'. And prices vary from states & counties because of taxes.

[@palaven4048]

YX3WQ They're Canadian

[@palaven4048]

tewkewl Pretty sure she said why are American's so cheap. They're not American though, they're Canadian.

[@PrincessKahara]

YAY my favourite series!

[@halinanguyen2963]

I love ur guys tattoos so creative

[@usagiem]

There are some really nice service stations along the highway in PA. I've been in several and I remember commenting on how nice and clean everything was. And every stop we visited always had a Starbucks (that didn't screw up my coffee) and that's all that I demand in a service station :)

[@KaraDep87]

I love korean rest stops. I had my first Korean meal at one. So good!

[@thesheranime]

In the US (or where I've been) we have several different thing. Rest area is a vague term that means bathroom, vending machine, a place to rest/stretch your legs. Rest stop offer a little more. Service station means gas, bathroom. Service areas offer that, a store and maybe a restaurant. Welcome centers have bathrooms, stores, restaurant, gas and info. I get confused with the difference between travel centers and Plazas both bigger than the others, better restaurants and a bigger store but one has shower facilities and the other does not. Also, some of these are chains so that offer specialized services depending on clientele (Buses, truckers, RVs, etc.)

[@timamiyp]

rest areas here in jakarta and surrounding cities are actually pretty cool. clean restrooms and a lot of restaurants.

[@xxplushbear]

I was having such a sad day today but you guys made me smile! Safe travels okay? (:

[@xoxoAshiieGiKwang]

Martina's rest rant was too funny but at the same time so true!

[@xEllieeCherryx]

The uk calls it 'services' .. they are pretty good! Restaurants, loads of clean toilets, shops...

[@TheHeavenlyheaven]

yeah, its convenient for travelers in Korea, I've been to many rest stops In Japan last winter, must say that theirs are awesome too! really really love the french fries vending machine in Japan!LOL

[@alondramedina8582]

Love you guys! ^^

[@tmblover27]

The rest areas in America vary from each state I've been to ones where they have tourist info, vending machines and bathrooms to where they have a store and restaurants. It really depends! But in Italy I was blown away by them! They had all freshly made food and you had tons of options. They were def a step above! They seem to be similar to the ones in korea.

[@leannyly]

I think in the UK we have the equivalent motorway services, they're pretty similar.

[@Haemingo]

next time you go to a korean rest stop you should try street food(?) type thingies, like 통감자 (small, whole potatoes in a cup), squid, (핫바) hot bar etc! They're considered to be a must when getting snacks from rest stops! (especially the potato)

[@yj-ib7uj]

omg you guys came to the city where i used to live!!!!! i really wana see you guys one day ㅠㅠ

[@user-jm1dh2qn5v]

It is better to eat at a famous restaurant. And thank you for this story. love them

[@isangchi]

I love you Rest Rants Martina!!! :D

[@luxmatsuo]

Thoae reststops are amazing! I never liked going to a reststop, only if I really needed to

[@noodie4eva]

you guys are adorable!

[@adbreon]

Ugh, I can't believe I'm going to defend the honor of the American rest stop, but all of the ones I've been to in the I80 corridor are nice. I sometimes want to move into to the ones on the turnpike in Indiana (Iowa to Penna is a long drive). Ohio has the best gift shops and Penna. has pretty nice shops too. They all have at least one restaurant, nice bathrooms, convenience stores, little blips about state history etc. The ones in Iowa are pretty groovy too, even though 80 doesn't have tolls here. We also have the worlds largest truck stop! There is a dentist office, chiropractor, hostel type rooms, homestyle restaurant, etc.

[@soundslikecalamari5498]

Just so you know Simon, that water tip was incredibly useful when I went to Seoul. Thanks :)

[@jaanviahuja9311]

Your hairstyles are great Martina😎

[@hatusharu94]

Gotta be up at 5am tommrow but I will stay up late to watch eyk!

[@sikisiki0416]

This is like exo showtime ep5 lol Love your rest rant XD

[@marilynrutecki9048]

i miss the ones in korea so much, in america its a little building with bathrooms and water fountain

[@NickiChrisDrizzy]

"Threw it on the ground!" Lol I love that video 😂😂😂

[@kokeshiseagull]

Here in Chile we have places called “Prontos” that are like our equivalent to that, they sell “homemade style” food, hot dogs, burguers, pizza etc :) they’re super nice (but they usually get super full tho)

[@ghostchild127]

Yeah, most "rest stops" I've been to up and down California/Oregon are literally just.. places to stop and rest, lol. Seems like S. Korean rest stops are more relatable to 'travel stations' or just gas stations with convenience stores. Like this one Pilot travel/gas station I stop at on the way to/from Oregon, they have surprisingly awesome chicken wings and other food, and a pretty big store :)

[@thegirlthateatsfood]

You guys are seriously awesome. I love all your videos. ^^ I'll forever be a nasty!

[@StarLove00]

The rest stops in America aren't as fancy but they do have some nice dinners that serve really good food that can taste better then homemade sometimes.

[@small_walmart_drawer_set]

I love you guys

[@Soopoon]

One of the things I liked about going on long rode trips were rest stops :D I just came back from Korea a week ago, but I want to go back again D:

[@JTMcAwesomeFace]

Best water thing ever. Pit stops I've been to were just a few benches and bathrooms.

[@kimmicci]

In Texas we have BUC-EES and its like the best rest stop ever... the restrooms are HELLA NICE and the food is soooo delicious. The only thing is there's no where to sit and eat, no where to rest and no where to get massages so.... whoomp. Buc-ees is only in TX, so i get sad traveling anywhere else bc most of the rest stops are shitty toilets and vending machine snacks. T_T

[@klsygrms]

I did not know that Buc-ees was only in TX! Maybe they will expand some time in the future.

[@kimmicci]

***** u never heard of a buc-ees? o_o well i know there's one from Houston-to-San Antonio, Houston-to-Dallas (? i think) and Houston-to-Galveston... I've only been to the H-S one. Idk of there's any more anywhere else in the state now that I think about it... but dont quote me on that.

[@kimmicci]

Kelsey G. same along with Whataburger lol. they both need to expand :)

[@kat7020]

I wouldn't consider it a rest stop. More of a glorified gas station tbh

[@smallmoon80085]

you know ur from texas when you get excited over buc-ees!!! best part of traveling

[@eddiejslou]

When Simons jajjangmyeon turn is so funny the music

[@BadLactose]

I so wish KZbin had smell-o-vision, so that I could better appreciate all the delicious food and Simon's pits.

[@flyingtigerII]

아 그렇군요, 외국식당에서는 물도 사서 먹어야돼나보군요. 그나저나 두분 항상 즐겁게 사시네용^______^ 잘보고갑니다

[@BENICECRITIC]

In Texas, be have Buc-ees and it's basically a huge gas station type rest stop. It's usually clean and sells souvenirs, coffee, drinks, food/snacks and it's wonderful! (*whispers* and it's bathrooms are clean too) ♥ It's a Texas-centered rest stop, so when traveling to other states I have to 'make-do' with smaller rest stops. (Not entirely sure, but some smaller ones in TX are a bit dinky. If your state has a nice rest stop, be sure to let me know :) )

[@makenna9602]

This reminds me of that Exo Showtime episode where they were traveling to the beach, and they stop at that rest stop.

[@cobrakidd2429]

Not a lot of people in the US go to rest stops. We only stop if someone is literally about to shit their pants. Our gas stations are pretty cool, like the all mighty Quiktrip, the holy grail of roller food.

[@Tubbs_x]

Here in The UK we call rest stops 'services' and they're pretty good! They're clean (most of the time) and they have book shops, restaurants (fast food really) and some other stuff too ^^ The old men that made noises when you walked past made me laugh a lot :')

[@musicwithkelsey2212]

The way they were all hollering at Martina lol

[@morgz_tv]

Just found u guys love u!

[@inactiveuser1981]

beats any rest stop in germany! epic, need to go to korea just for the rest stops!;D

[@maruchan1936]

Hey guys I really love soccer and since the World Cup is starting tomorrow I was wondering if you knew of some good places in Seoul where me and my friends could go watch the games. Like bars or restaurants that would show it live. Also I'm not sure how it works here but back home I can usually watch some of the games live on tv but others will be replayed during prime time. Does Korea do that too?? Thanks: )

[@chaichanaa]

The rest stops are kinda like this in thailand too

[@AwesomestPrincess94]

I had my first share of Korean food and I live in the States it was really good it was called Jab Chae Bab

At the end, I thought you were going to say TEAM ROCKET! I don't know why!

[@Nokkiwow]

Wow that rest area is so nice and FANCY! I live in America, and pretty much all they have at rest areas are dirty bathrooms and a vending machine. I wish we had rest stops like that!!

[@erinannfitz]

The massage chairs are my favorite part about Korean rest stops.

[@fieryeasy]

Lonely Island reference....YAAAAAS

[@bbones504]

miss KOREA so much was my home for two years when i was in the Army 01-03

[@anniex3082]

i remember when i first visited a rest stop in korea i was in AWE because the only other rest stops i had been to were from north america, and let's just say they are seriously lacking over here lol

[@WordsAndWhimsy]

Oh wow o.O Korean pit stops look a lot like Canadian ones to me, at least on the inside.

[@IlovTrunks16]

Okay! I have to defend rest stops in the southeast US! (Did I really just say that?) Florida's Turnpike has been re-doing its rest stops to be awesome; they look just like the one S&M stopped at. Also, there are rest stop chains like Pilot's, Love's, and one known in Texas called Buc-ee's. They're huge! Equipped with restaurants, 7/11-style areas, gift shops, all that jazz! (Not to mention the amenities for truckers.) The small rest stops with outdated bathrooms or just vending machines are usually owned by the state or federal government.

[@iBeFloe]

Yeah, FL's aren't *that* bad! I went down there 2 weeks ago & it was pretty decent. (Granted there's a lot of empty land then land full of people then more empty land...it's really...weird. lol Anyhow off-topic) They're pretty nice/clean for the most part but they're not as good as we saw in the video xD

[@RozeyH]

What part of Florida 😂😂 lolol that's inaccurate considering North Florida rest stop areas

[@IlovTrunks16]

Along the turnpike, mostly the ones right before and after Orlando (of course). You're right though, the ones on the interstate up in the panhandle are boring, plain, and old as crap. :p

[@Shadenmeatsix]

i miss this :(

[@panathenaea]

yay for Kids in the Hall reference!

[@WeeklyGoodies]

As someone from Oahu, we don't have rest stops since we're such a tiny island. I never even knew things like this existed. .-. Are these equivalent to those random gas stations and diners in the middle of nowhere that they show on TV?

[@missik25]

1:20 That thinking face.

[@KaynadianGinger]

I like your restrant very much Martina! :-P

[@dbsksarangx3]

Korean rest stops are awesome. Unfortunately it completely slipped my mind to go to one when I visited Korea last month =(

Hey guys. Are u at Malibu right now? I coulda swore I saw a couple just like you guys. Lol.

[@jacquelinebell523]

Rest stops in England are pretty much the same as Korea's except not Korean. Always spotless with Toilets/Mcdonalds/KFC/WHSmith etc. pretty random right?

[@cici2602]

Lol I've always wondered why they have whsmiths . 'While driving I need to stock up on my stationary etc'.. XD

[@romero2g4u]

uhmm NOO! NAPS are AMAZING! lol All college students know what I'm talking about! Naps in college is like a privilege! lol

[@RebelAngel2011]

Yes they are. When I have an extra hour that pops up in my week after classes, a nap is a must have.

[@RBLXDev]

Naps during class = waste of money. Naps during nothing-time = unicorn magic.

[@misstranle]

It's finals week. What are naps?

[@kruton93]

The joke was that the stop didn't spell "restaurant" correctly. They put "restrant," thus leaving it open to a joke about ranting about rests.

[@astrangeone]

Nelson Romero Lol. I only napped once in university. Had a late night the last night (up til two o'clock finishing an essay and my friend was staying with me, and she was sick as a dog), had an early class 8 o'clock and then a two o'clock exam. By the time the exam rolled around, I was so tired/exhausted that I couldn't read the letters and the numbers. I crashed at my dorm right after, and didn't wake up until the next day at around noon.
