LOCAL KOREAN STREET MARKET TOUR 🇰🇷

[@VisuallyGreg]

Awesome day as always ^^

[@sharlainjapan]

YES ok we are gonna skip lunch and just eat a bunch of street food haha

[@VisuallyGreg]

Whoa whoa whoa I need another Bibimbap though lol

[@annyeongskya]

Hello! I will be coming to Seoul on Thursday from Los Angeles! I can be your guys’ personal translator if you’d like haha. I’d love to hangout!

[@sourcream890]

I really don't see anything wrong with them hanging out. They have been good friends and I am sure Sharla's husband didn't mind at all. Anyway, don't you find your comment too rude?

[@Kimonekochan]

I understand that it can be inappropriate in Korean culture but don't forget that Sharla and Greg are not Korean and they are friend since forever. Also they are grown people who take their own decisions and you don't know what her husband is thinking so please don't be rude and take his place to say anything.

[@TokyoLens]

Been waiting to see more of Korea For some reason I feel the need to learn more about it before....

[@sabinebortenschlager5522]

Tokyo Lens Oh no, please don't tell us you are also leaving Japan 😮

[@MNachman]

Tokyo Lens AHHH, YOU ARE VISITING SHARLA!?!??

[@astoldbykat]

I would recognize that constellation anywhere; it's Cassieopeia! Also, you don't have to scoop out the seeds in those melons, you can totally eat them. When I worked at a middle school, the teachers would buy them in the summer, peel them, and then cut them up and they never took out the seeds first...which suits me fine because it means less work for my lazy butt :)

[@sharlainjapan]

kimchikitten Haha perfect, just got a new bunch of them so I’ll try with the seeds this time :D

[@jdnowlin19]

I immediately recognized Cassiopeia! It's my favorite and is very special to me. I so want that necklace now

[@Lisallamaa]

I know that one from the movie Serendipity

[@ryukyuprincess9621]

Same, except I knew it bc I’m a TVXQ fan lol😂❤️

[@tiabeckles4192]

Notification Squad!!! .. hey Sharla, I have successfully gotten my mom to watch ur videos and she LOVES U already.. and u inspired me to learn Korean and Japanese btw the culture is so nice💛 love you lots ur fav Barbadian viewer🇧🇧

[@tildessmoo]

Well, I searched a hundred or so comments, so I don't think anyone else has said this: I'm not entirely certain if it's got the right number of gems/stars, but I think the constellation necklace looks like Cassiopeia. The W shape is supposed to be Queen Cassiopeia of Aethiopia sitting on her throne. The stars kind of collectively tell a story, because the constellation is bordered by Cepheus (Cassiopeia's husband), Andromeda (her daughter), Perseus (the hero who saved Andromeda and slew Medusa), and Pegasus (who people often forget sprang from Medusa's neck when Perseus cut off her head). Sorry if that's too much detail, but I was a Classics major in college, so... yeah. And I'm not entering the contest, but I'd definitely have bought the fresh 김치, or maybe some of the grains (probably black rice and beans to mix in my rice; one of my best friends is Korean, and he's turned me on to their way of thinking about mixing other grains into rice). Also, I'm guessing you've probably tried it by now, but if not you might want to get some 대추차 (jujube tea); possibly my favorite Korean beverage.

[@sharlainjapan]

A couple other people suggested the same constellation so that must be it :D Thanks for the sharing the story, very interesting!! Always cool when your major comes in handy right? Haha

[@Lisallamaa]

I like you, Sharla. You're so genuine. Some times people might try to be extra silly on KZbin but you're just you and it makes me feel comfortable :) hope you can always be yourself!!

[@baileyb4135]

I love these videos. My little sister and I watch them together. She really wants to visit korea soon!

[@MissQueenRandom]

Sharla!! The fine jewelry suits you sooo well, I love the layering!! Definitely going to check it out ☺️

[@AbbyP]

Hi Sharla! Just wanted to drop by and say been a fan of your videos for a while since you've been in Japan (which was SUPER inspiring) and happy to see you here in Korea now! Glad to see you settling in and enjoying things like your local street market. ^^

[@Shyless]

It's crazy that I've been following your videos for about 5 years now, and I still love them!! I would totally have bought the mochis, all those traditional sweets made me hungry haha I probably would check out the clothes stores, saw some cute stuff on the racks. 3 to go... Fruits, like the watermelon you bough bc I love fruits, the mandu and something deep fried I think!

[@pvkat1982]

First you make me want to visit Japan and now you make me want to visit South Korea. I'm going to end up broke with all these vacations and it's all thanks to you! Not to mention I still need to visit Canada! But seriously though, I love all your videos!

[@alexsmith4379]

oh my goodness this video is full of positive vibes and happiness! I always feel great after watching a Sharmander video. Sharla and Greg are such great friends it's so nice to see. Those sweets looked sooo yummy and I would have gotten them in a heartbeat. Stay your awesome cheerful selves! ^^

[@rinowx5]

Love the videos with Greg!! I definitely would’ve gotten the Gucci cat shirt 😂❤️🐱

[@froggyfella14]

I totally would have bought a huge bag of those peanuts! Or that puffed rice and grains and made a cereal like you said. 고맙습니다!

[@wow2283]

Your friend always has the most warm and kind face and his smile is amazing! Love seeing more of S. Korea.

[@BethanyStrublevlogs]

I would’ve bought all those sweets from the market. No self control. 😂

[@xaetic]

I want to say I would’ve bought all the veggies but.... that pancake looked so yummy 😭💕

[@amberjudd4498]

I think my favorite thing from the street market is spotting a little food stand or restaurant hidden in between everything. I like finding "hidden gems" here and there when I go somewhere new.

[@dibars171]

Greg is so adorable omg 🙌💞

[@VisuallyGreg]

Awwwww thank you

[@eladrialskeksis]

Has Sharmander got you doing the long skincare routine yet, Greg? It's an awesome way to spoil yourself lol. I love Bibimbap too:)

[@VisuallyGreg]

I've never actually did skin care before in my life but some people said I should but I don't really know what it would change for me lol

[@eladrialskeksis]

No harm in trying it. You might be surprised. The Klairs stuff is honestly a really nice cheap place to start. You don't have to go nuts like us girls with 10 plus steps but.. just an oil cleanse, cleanse, tone, vit c and moisturiser would probably be more than enough. Plus- silly pictures on sheet masks are fun:) the papa recipe honey bombee masks are really awesome.

[@VisuallyGreg]

Haha Maybe I'll make a video on me trying some stuff and Sharla can coach me through it all haha

[@MsLightningPrime]

I was SO happy when you were talking about your new jewelry because I am allergic to anything that isn't real silver or gold as well and with that, I wear the same pair or earrings everyday. But now I'm gonna try that site! Also, I would have bought some desserts from the marketplace. I live in a small town & I've been wanting to try some Korean snacks & meals so badly!

[@natsmyspace]

I would have bought the Gucci cat tshirt so funny. Love the market! I wanna go to south Korea so bad

[@upcyclucie]

Street markets are so nice!! Super cozy and cheaper than in the stores.. I guess it’s much cheaper because there’s no expensive store rent. The only downside of Dutch street markets is that there’s rarely any organic produce! Loved the video! I’m craving kimchi right now! 😂😘❤️

[@upcyclucie]

Hana Rose Yeah, clothing is all cheap fast fashion crap on markets. I never buy it anyway, I’m an eco friendly designer and only wear vintage and upcycled garments. Much better quality!

[@upcyclucie]

Hana Rose Yeah so much better to just recycle! I did a couple of videos last year (2 to be exact lol) on my channel, but couldn’t upload for a while because I was sick for a couple of months, but will continue to do so all summer! This is my Etsy shop if you’d like some inspiration www.etsy.com/shop/thebohemiandream ☺️

[@kimcathe6742]

The jewellery is so cute! I’m lucky as I’m not allergic but I’m always more attracted to the very expensive kind 😄 Love the earring 😍

[@musokachan469]

That market looked like such a nice place and I’m glad people there are friendly enough to help out anyone they see struggling. I hope you’ll make another video where you do your grocery shopping at a street market. If I had to pick something it would be between the mochi and any of the fresh veggies they sell there.

[@sourcream890]

I would buy the traditional sweets and mochi! They definitely makes me wanna give them a try. Haha

[@SuicchiWAV]

Wow the market seems so nice!! I wish we had more of these type of markets here in the West as well- Haha If I had been there I probably wouldn't have been able to hold back on the fruits and nuts- I absolutely love those and honestly in Asian countries the variety of fruits and nuts you can get is so much bigger!! The taste is also so much richer. I miss it!! Also the big variety of beans and rice is amazing!! Combining different rice and adding beans can really boost the taste and make the overall taste so much nicer!! It must've been so nice there! ^^

[@fannylay5873]

The mochi!!! They looked sooo delicious!!! I truly enjoy this kind of videos. It`s like discovering your neighbourhood along with you guys!

[@kirakos16]

"That guy had some nice melons" hahaha

[@kiraofravenfell6802]

Kira K Hey! A fellow Kira and spelled the same. I don't come across others often. 😊

[@crsh2007]

I have a huge sweet tooth, so I would've bought the mochi :) PS. No fair, the restaurant ladies got to see (a picture of) Keyboard San before WE did :(

[@sybrix]

Love that community vibe street markets have! Closest thing we have in the US are farmers' markets but they tend to be more expensive than the grocery store and don't really have non-food goods.

[@yep4andy]

I would have bought the rice cakes probably, I really wanna try their traditional foods 😍

[@ryukyuprincess9621]

OMG I FEEL YOU, I HAVE A METAL ALLERGY TOO. I NEED TO CHECK THEM OUTTTTT

[@kristthy]

Ohh I was expecting this kind of video! Thanks for showing us around. I'd have bought the traditional sweets to share with friends and family, and tons of veggies and fruits to eat later, I love eating new food from different places.

[@byunTAEuP]

Greg is the friend who gets lost because he stops to take pictures. xD

[@CrimsonDip]

OML That market looks like vegan heaven, If I was there I wouldn't have been able to restrict myself from buying all the grains/veggies dear lawdy

[@alexandrarosa6008]

Greg’s laughs at the beginning 😂. I love watching you 2 explore!

[@WayGaijin]

Gosh your videos of Korea are seriously making me consider moving back.

[@sweetest4684]

rue gembon sounds like rue jambon which translates to ham street in french! 😂i was like wait is their jewelry brand seriously ham street?😂😂😂

[@JadeCanada237]

I think it's supposed to be a play on "good gem" but it's not spelled the correct way.

[@sweetest4684]

Jade yes i agree

[@naomicross8537]

That cat Gucci shirt was a hidden gem!!! I would've bought that in a heartbeat

[@Eruanne]

*What I would have bought from the street market would, honestly, be that GUCCI cat shirt. More so for the cats than the GUCCI, but the combination of the two is just so absurdly awesome and that price was unbeatable even for a fake! :D*

[@michaelaalcordo1614]

Oh my gosh I’m allergic to metal earrings as well! Totally gonna buy there!

[@Emody208]

The melons sound really good! I would probably buy those and the pancakes. Everything seems so interesting. Just walking through a simple little market like that is soo fun and interesting in a new place. Also, that jewelry is really cute!

[@PedroGomes-mt3iz]

GREG!

[@VisuallyGreg]

Pedro!!!!

[@keikosakai4920]

Nampyeon is husband 🤗

[@HeyItsZee_]

Keiko Sakai yes nampyeon is husband

[@faeirydancer]

I was about to type the same thing lol

[@RalphWiggumIRL]

Shar, you're the best! Your videos always brighten up my day. And Greg is awesome. His laugh is the greatest! Thanks for always sharing good vibes with us.

[@MidoriEyes7]

I had bibimbap for the fist time on Saturday. I wanted to try it because it always looks soo good when you get it and you like it so much. I loved it. I want to eat it everyday too. I got a vegi one with an egg. The sauce was the best part though. Thank you for recommending it.

[@glorianav7158]

im allergic to fake jewelry too! one time when me and my mom went to a jewelry store in LA she bought me earrings , they guaranteed that they were real gold so she bought them for me and within minutes my ears were really red and found out they were fake gold so from that day till now my mom uses me as her guinea pig when she buys gold lol

[@AnonymousOregonian]

Gloria Nav. Have you tried coating the metal in clear nail polish? I've heard it works. Once and a while you need to add another layer or remove with nail polish remover and do it again.

[@xxibjrosek]

I wear stainless steel/titanium earrings. I've tried over the years to wear other metals, but as I've gotten older, I've found that I can't wear anything else.

[@RatherStrangeCat]

Everything looked so good! I'd definitely try the kimchi mandu, and those pancakes sounded amazing! I hope you can find more markets on your travels, it's always fun to see what different stalls there are in different markets! Lovely to see Greg again in your videos! He's always so smiley and upbeat, you guys clearly have such fun spending time together!

[@TheGreenDee]

Greg !! ❤️

[@VisuallyGreg]

Hello

[@TheGreenDee]

Hi ! :)

[@slashavria15]

Hey Sharla, I really enjoyed your video! I‘ve lived in Japan for 10months as an exchange student and I’m always really homesick for asia and all its incredible foods. I‘d really love to visit Korea one day and I’m very glad North and South recently started talking to eachother. I‘m hereby entering your giveaway: I would have tried the sweet syrup filled pancakes you pointed out. I love trying new food. ❤︎ pls message me through KZbin. Enjoy your day! Xoxo Avria

[@anidanielle]

I love seeing you discover exciting new things in Korea! Since I crochet all the time I would have picked up something from that yarn shop, since I can never have too much yarn.

[@sophietulip5459]

I would have defiantly bought the cat stuff, my cat is constantly shredding the stairs plus maybe she will prefere Korean brands like I do. Well she eats my tuna anyway

[@sok-wonsong1720]

yellow korean melon. it's called 참외 lol

[@Leanimal]

I would definitely be getting all my veggies a that market! Look at all the love and care that goes into making that produce. I would need a shopping cart!

[@davidb9806]

i would have bought so many cat toys for my furbaby omg

[@evewhoo]

David B All the toys for the furbaby!

[@FrankBernard]

I probably would have bought the cat gucci shirt or all the food at the market haha (please msg me on instagram @frankbernard if picked 😬)

[@BothHands1]

Yeah, I would have eaten everything there lol Cannot walk past a mochi stand and not buy any, that just doesn't happen lol

[@Rei.Eatsfoods]

she needs that shirt right? lol

[@JarenJamYo]

Love, love street markets!! The shrimp mandoo sounded amazing! That, and fruits! I always love trying new fruits while visiting other countries! 🍉🍓🍎

[@AMVDangoVN]

I totally would've bought all the mochi lol. Its so expensive in Canada :((

[@ad_kk16]

Go to North York, cheaper than near The Annex/Bloor St.

[@MsAsh3070]

It's funny, my mum lied to my dad for years about being allergic to cheap jewelry so he'd buy her the expensive stuff. And it was only when I was in my mid teens (about 15ish, so they'd probably been together for about 20 years), that my sisters and I bought her...I think it was earrings from this places that does really nice jewelry nearby - like it not real gold or silver but it's a brand with a great reputation internationally so it's not super cheap either. And we showed it to my dad and he was like 'you can't give her THAT! She's ALLERGIC!' At which point my sister was like 'I'm pretty sure she's borrowed my jewelry [from this place] and has been fine'. So we gave it to my mum to see what would happen. And my dad was OUTRAGED when she was fine. He still holds it against her that she lied about an allergy to cheap stuff to this day! XD

[@sharlainjapan]

Hahaha that's so sneaky xD I wish I was lying hahaha I love cheap jewelry! There are so many cute options where as the ~real~ stuff is usually pretty simple and boring.

[@jenngrrl]

Yay, you and Greg always have so much fun. I'm so glad that he moved to Korea!

[@bombshell408]

I definitely would have bought that cat tree 😂 even if i had to walk several miles home. Can we say “spoiled cats” much?

[@iiperplexed3136]

I defiantly would have bought the *Gucci cat shirt* and for only 5 dollars who could let such a steal pass by? Not a sane person that's for sure!

[@JaxxMarrs]

I think the melons were a good choice! It's really cool that it's like a personal portion of a melon so you don't have to cut open a whole melon if you just want a snack. I think I would have definitely bought the Korean donuts from the market. I have had them before and the inside is so delicious!

[@tahlieajayde8686]

Ooohhhh! I can't wait to visit Korea one day! I probably would have tried all the different street food. But also seen what I could have made with some of the fresh veggies and the grains. Foooodddd!

[@suzi7715]

"Oh yea, Greg's here!" LOL OMGoodness I LOVE the kitty on Greg's jacket!!! The market was cool, I hope you go back.

[@LaurenPuff]

Hi, Sharla and Greg! Love watching you two go on adventures. At the street market, I would have bought lots of traditional Korean treats, some gyoza, and fresh veggies I’ve never tried before to make tofu stir fry. Everything looked delicious and super fresh. 🤗

[@vanessathomas175]

Loving the Korea videos! So happy for you that Greg is there now! (Greg Rocks). I think I would have had to try the Korean pancakes, even though they were the fried kind and not the baked kind...just sounds yummy either way ! Eventually I would also work my way through all the different fruits. So cool that they have such different ones there!

[@patxiwillwhycow]

I totally would've bought the cat scratching post!! Lovely video, Sharla 💕

[@nailakamana763]

Everything is packed so nicely

[@chelseaanderson5656]

I’m from Alaska and I harvest my own seaweed so I would love to pick some from there and see the difference. Love watching the adventures you go on with Greg.

[@izzie2049]

I completely adore Korea and I really want to go to the market!! If I were to buy something, it would probably have been the tempura you showed us because that looked delicious omgggg. I have never tried any Korean skin care products but you know your girl wants their skin glow!

[@princessyhanny]

The different types of mochi look so good. I would definitely have bought a couple.

[@lr7747]

loved the pink cat tree and the yarn bins....so many colours to choose from

[@bloodlath]

Wow. The market food looked so good. I would have love to have gotten the jeju oranges. Glad you are loving exploring.

[@hollymcelroy1552]

The street market was so cool. It's amazing that we can experience a new culture through you. Thank you for sharing. I would of got the gucci cat shirt and some fruit and vegetables I havent tried before.

[@xBeautyIsHerNamex]

I love your videos, especially this one. It shows a big difference shopping at an outside market vs. The grocery store. I would buy veggies and fruits because I think you can get them for an affordable price by the bulk vs by the pound. Love you Sharla ♡♡♡

[@luxtato1225]

That market looked so good! I definitely would’ve bought some sweets to try as well as things for my kitties!

[@karufuruu]

If I was at the street market, I would have gotten the traditional Korean rice cakes!! Looked sooo yummy! Love you sharla!!

[@starlightvampire]

That street market is so so so cute!! I love markets! The area I mainly grew up in is heavy in agriculture, so there were a lot of produce stands and markets. I miss them a lot since moving to Los Angeles. I would've purchased a LOT of veggies from that market, and things for my pets!! The scratching post was adorable!! ♥

[@alexandriapettyjohn5527]

I would have definitely gotten that adorable pink scratching post! I wonder if they had any cute kitten cat sweaters!!!💕☺️ You’ve inspired me so much to become more adventurous in my everyday life! My bucket list now includes going to both Japan AND Korea! It seems so amazing!

[@emilyng445]

I would buy the colorful rice cakes! Those are made from cooked rice pounded into a sticky paste, often referred to as DDUK (떡), and filled with sweet fillings like red bean paste etc. YUMMSS

[@AfzaEATS]

I love korean street market, where they absolutely selling cheap stuffs, and of course their amazing food . Food that i would buy there is all of the korean mochi, because they are so delicious and chewy and also rice puff, yummy

[@noeldressel4339]

I loved this video! That street market looks so awesome, and it's great to be able to get local veggies for such wonderful prices. I would have bought at least one Jeju orange just because I've watched some K-dramas that have referenced them and how good they are. I can't wait to see more of your videos in Korea!

[@redrhyan]

I am so the Greg friend, wandering off with a camera. I would have bought so much food I really can never help myself! Probably would have gone in the cat store too because everything looked cute!

[@shelbyjohnson7047]

Love the street market!!! I live watching your videos, it’s always awesome to learn about other cultures! I would have definitely bought some fresh fish 🐠

[@randyarikawa8668]

Thanks for taking all of us on a walking tour. My wife mentioned she would have purchased the pink kitty cat scratching post at the pet store.

[@Tina.bina.]

All the produce had me drooling! That's definitely what I would have picked up. It's so expensive here in the stores and our produce stands are far and few between.

[@PeculiarSiren]

You're such a lucky person to be able to live in such a beautiful, culture-filled country, I keep bugging my fiancé that we HAVE to go to Korea someday soon! And I think, the first thing I would buy, would be the gyoza, for sure. Its been my hands down favorite food for years :) Thanks for another great video Sharla! Keep showing us how beautiful the world is!

[@aliciad2392]

Hey sharla!! I love seeing you and Greg together! He definitely brightens up my day! I would’ve totally bought that Gucci cat shirt 😂

[@JapanIchiban]

I want to have a day hanging out with Sharla and Greg :,) sounds like so much fun ❤️☺️

[@ginkgosunmontana7628]

So cool that you and Greg are hanging out...love to see you both trying out your Korean more. 😉😆👍❤I would have bought ever mochi in sight!

[@CurvyCritterLewks]

I would have done all my grocery shopping there! The prices look so cheap and everything looks really fresh. Especially for the fresh veggies!

[@DreamsInWild]

I would have bought so much food from the street market! I love getting fresh fruit and veggies from local growers, and I would have loved to try the sweet pancake thing, as well as the tempura. It looked so good!

[@sarat.9750]

Thanks for taking us to the street market! All the food looks so good to try! I would love to try the hotteok, Korean sweet pancake....It looks soo good right now. Lol

[@perlasalinasramirez]

AHHH the kitten shirt is literally life!!! If I could go to the market, I would get one in every color!!😻😻😻😻😻😻😻

[@pawsitivevibes101]

The street markets there look like so much fun! I'd love to wander through there and smell all that delicious food. The pet store would totally get my money though , I'm a crazy cat lady. Good job and keep the videos wandering around Korea coming! ♡

[@helsdottir]

I'm so happy you have Greg to hang out with! :D I'd have bought lots of those sweets!

[@noriborealis]

Everything looked so tasty. I would've bought so many fruits and vegetables, as well as the kimchi and mandu. I love food and cooking. I can never control myself when I go to the local Asian markets here.

[@basicbittytiffany]

Everything looked so good! 😍 I would love to try the traditional Korean desserts and the Korean melon that you and Greg enjoyed.

[@sherriisnani]

I would've bought tons of mochi and mandu cause that shop looked soo delicious! I've been loving your Korea vlogs, can't wait for more ❤️❤️
