Q&A: Do We Have CULTURAL DIFFERENCES? | 질답: 규호와 세라에게 문화적 차이가 있나요? (자막 CC)

[@2hearts1seoul]

This is just our personal experience, but please remember that each couple is different :) 이것은 저희의 개인적인 경험이에요 개개인의 커플 모두 다릅니다 :) Have you ever experienced any major cultural differences with your parter? 파트너와 문화적 차이를 경험해보신적이 있으시다면 저희에게도 공유해주세요 ^^ AND, thank you SO much again to the lovely people who added subtitles to some of our videos! We weren't able to contact you and thank you personally, since it didn't show anyone's ID. We really, really appreciate your time and effort--thanks a million! :D

[@ARCHIEzzle]

+2hearts1seoul I can definitely relate with you guys. I am filipino and my wife is mexican. Now we are in the United States and we met in the US Army. Also our families had to be part of our relationship and understand our decisions. Great vid guys

[@alisak9106]

두분다 한국어하는것 듣고싶어요!!!! 그리고 규호씨 어떻게 러시아,인디아에서 생활했는지 인디아에서 영어는 어떻게 배우셨는지?? 영어 정말 잘하시던데 꼭 알려주세요! 어떻게 중학교때 가셔서 영어를 배웠고 무엇이 어려웠는지! 영어공부 비결알려주세요!!!

[@teishaguillen1217]

+ARCHIEzzle I'm mix with different race my husband mexicana and we have different in culture

[@peggyhargis5331]

Thank you for this video because I was wondering how family member accept other people from different countries. I live in the USA and love Koreans and learning some of the cultural living

[@Fancynancytv]

you guys suit each other perfectly :)

[@2hearts1seoul]

**UPDATE -- TURKISH and SPANISH SUBS are UP! Thank you so much for your help:)

[@computadorpc9854]

I just love when you guys do seat and talk videos! By far my favorite couple on KZbin!!! 😊😊

[@lillyc9634]

They are becoming my second fave couple on youtube! Not that I go out of my way to search for couple channels, I stumple upon them. Anyway, I like Pewpidie/Marzia and now these two! So cute and love how mature they are

[@LilGrasshopper]

Having grown up in a multicultural Canadian family. I think you really nailed this topic. Compromise and a willingness to meet in the middle is what makes any relationship successful. My grandparents were always so sweet & understanding of my Mamá especially in the early days of their language barrier. She adored them for it :3

[@CarlosGarcia-en1to]

I love how he talks to her and less to the camera it seems like the videos are more personal and less produced or manufactured idk but I like it

[@HilaryCocciola]

I can't help this..I stared at kyuho hair all the time Nice hairstyle,I love it

[@Sherelmuter]

I'm staring at him in all their videos because damn...those dimples...

[@kashriz95]

How long did Kyuho stay in India? Does he know a lot about Indian culture? Can he make a video about his overseas & school experience while he was growing up? That's so interesting!

[@sherrybyw]

I love how you guys are able to answer the question so honestly & articulate your thoughts so clearly! It's amazing how both of you, as well as your family members, are so understanding of each other ♥

[@user-vc5rp7nf8f]

I hope I find a relationship like yours someday

[@cynthiaxiong1120]

And yes, I'd love to know more about Kyuho's childhood experiences living in different countries. Please make a video.

[@jamesjung2006]

제가 드라마 잘 안 보는 이유가 다음 화까지 기다리는 게 힘들어서인데 규호님과 Sarah의 영상 기다리는 것도 거의 그 정도 느낌이네요ㅜㅜㅋㅋ10분 좀 넘는 영상이 오늘 유달리 짧게 느껴지네요 그래도 이거 편집하는데는 엄청 오래 걸리셨겠죠..ㅎㅎ이번 편도 재밌게 잘 봤습니다. 저희 가족들이라면 외국인 신부를 accept해줄까? 생각도 한 번 해봤구요ㅎㅎ 항상 퀄리티 높은 영상 제공해주셔서 감사합니다. 다음 한 주도 잘 보내시고 일요일에 좋은 영상 기대할게요!

[@jamesjung2006]

Thanks Sarah for the detailed description of the difference between Korean culture and Canadian culture in terms of marriage. It really helped me! Can't wait to watch next video. Have a good week and see you on Sunday!

[@2hearts1seoul]

+JJ 너무 좋은 코멘트 감사합니다!^^ 조금은 무거울수도 모호할 수도 있는 주제이지만 영상을 제작해보며 세라와도 다시한번 문화에 대해서 생각해보는 좋은 계기가 되었어요. 영상 편집이 오래걸리지만 하는동안 정말 즐거워요^^ 자막을 의역을 하다보니 표현이 모호해지는 경우가 있어 다시 읽어보고 정리해서 적느라 오래 걸렸어요. 그래도 항상 이시간대의 스케쥴로 맞추도록 노력할께요! 한 주 잘 보내세요 :)

[@bibimbubu7497]

Loved this video guuys! By the way we recently found your channel, and thought you guys looks familiar, and it's because we saw you in another video with other couples! I don't remember the name, but you sure know which video I'm talking about. I watched it many times!

[@solarsue0520]

Really wanna meet you guys>< you are a so adorable couple. My husband and I are international couple as well, he is a Korean and I'm Chinese, we met in Australia and studied there for several years together .now we are in Korea, but so far I don't really have many friend here ,feel so nice to watching your vlogs ~

[@2WongsMIR]

Thank you for sharing. A lot of what you said echoed in our relationship and the funny thing is that sometimes I think she's more Asian than me ! Cheers and go Canadian! ;)

[@zemalili]

오늘 너무 좋은 주제인거 같고 내용이 좋아서 계속 고개끄덕이면서 봤네요 그리고 자막!! 너무 당연하게 생각했었는데 시간이 많이 드는 일이었네요, 항상 수고해주셔서 편히 보고있었네요 감사해요

[@diamolee559]

오래된 영상인데 이제 보고 댓글 쓰네요. 문화적 차이와 서로 다름에 대해 인정하고 존중하고 상대를 배려하는 모습이 참 아름답네요. 중국에서 온 사자성어(중국 한자 네 글자로 된 문장)에 화이부동 이란 말이 있는데 '서로 달라도 잘 지낸다'란 뜻인데 매우 비슷하죠.

[@FreshSalad645]

I understand Kyuho's "Who am I" feel. I grew up in a multicultural environment in my home country (the capital is very multicultural, I never went to school with only kids from my country, there was also 1/3 to 2/3 of the class that were foreigners), then moved around a lot (Germany, UK, US, Korea, France) and traveled a lot... Now I sometimes feel like my heart is divided between different cultures. I settled back in my home country for university and realized a had a cultural gap with my classmates. I felt homesick of my own country for a while, but after some time, it got better. My friends also learned to understand my quirky sides when it comes to some cultural stuff and accept it pretty well. I still feel it sometimes because all of my university friends speak French but although I speak French, aside from school and friends, I only speak English. Therefore, I don't watch french tv, I don't know french-speaking celebrities, I never watched the same cartoons as they did as kids, etc. I get a little lost when they speak about some stuff so I just sit and listen ^^'

[@MidnightBlueOwl]

You guys are just the cutest couple! And I love all the positivity you add to the topics you choose to talk about in your vlogs! I see genuine love and respect in all your videos. Keep up the good work! :D

[@2hearts1seoul]

Ahhh, thank you so much! 😍

[@hyeryoon]

I also grew up in multiple different cultures and can relate to what you're saying. This was a great video, thanks for the upload guys! I always look forward to your videos.

[@kristiblackwell2329]

This is a great vlog. Great information and it's beautiful how the two of you have blended your lives. I'm thinking that you had a bit of an advantage because Sarah was in Korea already when you met. Clearly, she wanted to be there and that is probably a big hurdle you didn't have to jump! Enjoy your videos. Keep it up!

[@ninihoneykom512]

I glad you do the Korean subtitles, even though it's difficult. It's really helpful to learn Korean, threw seeing how a native speaker would translate certain English phrases. Thanks Kyuho.

[@kayoungyoo6823]

This is by far my fave video of yours! I think it's the beauty of international relationship as you get to think about your own culture and learn how to genuinely respect people who's different from you.

[@kayoungyoo6823]

It was quite informative

[@2hearts1seoul]

+KA YOUNG Yoo Thank you! So glad you enjoyed it 😊

[@patriciamclaughlin534]

Thank you for another wonderful video! In so many ways you two are so blest in your relationship!... All that you said about older people is very true, Sarah - I am so happy your attention and warmth toward Kyuho's grandfather helped to create a good relationship there. It's interesting about the cultural generation gap between young people in Korea of your age and Kyuho's parents' age. I understand how this can be, seeing as S.Korea 'came of age' so quickly in more recent times. But, Kyuho, when you said you have less cultural differences with Sarah than you do with his parents, that really brought it home.

[@2hearts1seoul]

+Patricia McLaughlin Thank you so much! :) I'm really grateful that Kyuho's grandfather and I get along well--it's honestly something that I never expected would happen ☺️

[@AdrenalStorm]

I am really happy for the teamwork and acceptance from both of sides of the family on making this relationship work. Having a good relationship with both your own family and the in-laws about your relationship and marriage is always desired and you guys have made it work really well. And making bonds work, effort has to come from both sides of the family. Guess at this point it's more of a generation gap intra-family rather than pure cultural difference inter-family.

[@백동호-n4z]

지극히 상식적이고 이상적인 부부같아요 너무 예쁘고 보기 좋아요

[@keluargaanggada1466]

I really enjoyed your video. But one time I want to see the video of you in a different way. How if you use the full Korean language on one of your next video? of course, equipped with English subtitles hehehe

[@roxgems]

I really enjoyed watching this video and have subscribed🌞 I, too, was raised in different cultures and could identify when at one point you asked yourself about your identity 🌝 With my father being Native American and my mother being born and raised in France and then going to school and living in Japan for 5 years and then moving to U.S. for remaining school years, I can see some of the cultural differences and mindsets that are and were different than my friends - even holidays were different in each culture. The French and Japanese culture doesn't have pow wows or that style of music and the 3 kisses on each cheek french greeting would definitely cause looks in Japan. 🌞 One similarity that I noticed with Native American culture and Asian culture (& it's not to say that other cultures do not have respect) is the emphasis placed on respecting and honoring elders. There is so much more but I would rather focus on what you both, who are such a cute couple, have shared. I am really looking forward to more videos 💖

[@anaraquel6554]

you're such a cute couple, the chemistry and the honesty in your video's is amazing

[@imyyong6305]

Hands down my favorite couple on KZbin!

[@meju2020]

I always enjoy your videos, but this has to be one of my favorites. You explain this topic so well, because it is true. every relationship is different, and also with technology advancing more and more have become aware of what is outside there own culture.. I look forward to more videos in the future.. ^^

[@jeongfamily1224]

너무 보기 좋아요. ㅎㅎ 다른곳에서 자라나도 문화차이를 많이 안 느낄수있네요. 커플마다 다 다른거죠. 저희 가족은 같은 한국인이지만 문화차이를 많이 느끼는데. 흑. 저희 남편은 한국계 미국인이에요. 문화차이를 느껴도 서로 알아가고 존중해주는 마음 가짐이 중요하죠. 공감가는게 많은 채널이라 자주들릴께요.

[@chun7270]

Thank you for the great video. Just wondering if you guys are thinking of ever moving to Canada??? Cheers!

[@jharnajones7865]

Again great topic of discussion. I also had similar thoughts and concerns as Kyuho at first when I was dating my husband since my side of the family came from very traditional Asian background. However, I was surprised by my family's immediate openness and acceptance of my husband. I think as long as there is a respect and understanding of each other, acceptance comes easily. And when acceptance, respect and understanding happens amongst each other, I don't think there will be an issues of cultural differences...at least that is what I/we have learned through out of relationships and marriage and we are still learning 😊

[@Lion-fj3wp]

Great conversation on culture,you both explain it well.

[@지나가던행인-n7x]

You both are awesome ! I really hope that many people around the world could share your opinions about the world.

I've been to Canada and Korea, and I really like both cultures. It's really awesome watching you guys. Pleas keep sharing 👏🏻

[@junwithoutyee]

Sarah's comment at 8:54 basically hit my mind so hard right now as a Korean person who resides in Canada. I've always been aware of Canada's unique concept called "Cultural Mosaic", however, somehow I lost that in my mind. So whenever I feel like "My English doesn't make sense today, it's literally a verbal diarrhea", then I'd blame myself pretty hard as I wanna be "fit" in Canadian culture. But Sarah, ur comment made me realized what I have forgotten in my mind, so thank you for ur kind words. It made my day! :D

[@junwithoutyee]

oh btw, happy Easter Sarah and 규호씨! :D love from Ontario!

[@2hearts1seoul]

+Junwon Seo Ohhh, really try not to be so hard on yourself if you're having one of those days! Everyone understands and respects you, because you've learned another language, and that is HARD--you should be proud of that :)

[@junwithoutyee]

+2hearts1seoul I think both of u guys would understand exactly what I meant... lols Thanks for uploading great videos btw! I started to watch u guys' videos bcuz 1. Sarah is Canadian (eh?) and your pronunciation is very clear/articulate (probably bcuz u teach English as a job?) 2. Dancing Lee's (lol) english sometimes has something that I could learn from as he and I share the mother tongue/maybe even dialect (I'm from 충청 provice as well lmao) and 3. I kinda can alleviate this random homesickness by watching ur vids! Thanks again! U guys r awesome! :D

[@sheeeekins]

First of all, love the videos you make. The quality and the detailed content is really helpful. Regarding the subtitles, I went through and for some reason only some of your videos gave me the option to add subtitles. I'm not sure if it's something I'm doing wrong or because of the upload type or something but I would be willing to do some if all the videos had this option ;) (This vid doesn't btw) Thanks again!

[@2hearts1seoul]

+Shawdi H Ohh, thank you so much! 😊 Oh yikes, this is probably something on our end that we have to tweak, but we're not so familiar with yet, haha. We'll take a look at everything today and see if we can figure it out. Thank you so much for even considering making subtitles for one of our videos! 😊

I stumbled onto your video today, I think you guys make really beautiful couple:) As a Korean in a mixed-race relationship myself, I can't help but feel really jealous of you two! I really loved what Sarah said on the video, that you can't expect only one person to adapt the other person's culture. Coz I feel like I am the one who has to understand everything about my bf's culture..:'( I mean I do understand it since he comes from a very closed, conservative culture, but it's still hard! Well, anyway, I loved your video! :)

[@2hearts1seoul]

농경사회에서 산업화를 겪은 장년층과 민주화를 겪은 중년층 그리고 정보화를 겪은 청년층 사이에 사고방식의 차이가 뚜렷하죠. 이게 때로는 사회통합을 저해하기도 하지만 그런 사고방식의 차이가 지금의 한국문화를 만들어낸것 같기도 합니다

[@minyounglee6523]

농경사회 말이 됩니다. 80년대 초반만해도 지방 소도시에서는 말이나 소가 끄는 달구지가 시내를 다녔고, 다이얼 전화기가 아닌 군대 전화기처럼 전화기 옆에 레버를 돌려서 교환과 통화해서 거는 전화기를 사용했으니까요. 그리고 제가 기억하는 80년대 시골은 비단을 얻기 위해 누에를 치고, 맥주 원료인 호프, 잎담배, 목화 등의 노동력이 많이 필요한 작물을 많이 재배했어요. 그 당시 시골 큰집에가면 동네에 8촌이내 친척이 동네 인구의 절반이었죠. 하지만 더 이상 한국에선 누에나, 호프, 담배, 목화를 흔하게 재배하지 않아요. 시골에 지금은 청년이 없으니까요. 제가 기억하는 80년대 시골풍경이 이 정도라면 50, 60년대는 산업화를 이루기 전이었으니 농사가 주요산업이었음은 당연하죠.

I when trough a Korean movie faze, when I wanted to see different foreign movies, other than american English spoken ones, and I fell in love with korean films. One I loved most of all was Memories of murder, and I wanted my mom to watch it too but there were no romanian subtitles for it available online so I had to write subtitles for it from english to romanian and also interpret it. Just a rant about subtitles, love your videos guys.

[@Vivianachancn]

I know that from my marriage to someone from the Arab culture I have absorbed certain aspects of the culture. I feel like I fit into the Arab culture in many ways but really hold on strongly to the American culture. I never feel like an outsider until I meet up with someone outside of my circle and I get that look like you are not one of us. I don't like the reverse preconceived judgements even though I know where they come from. I am glad this couple and their families are working this out. Having your parents support you really makes married life easier.

[@camangkor4839]

Yes in the West, individualism is strongly nurtured to a point that it harms a spirit of solidarity between family members . This is based on my own experiences as having been raised and grew up in the West. Even friendship doesn't have the same meaning as it is in Asian cultures. It is more superficial and selfish in the West as opposed to the East. My Caucasian friends and I go out together for fun. We get along so well together and we respect each other's differences. That is the cornerstone of our friendship . However, I can't really count on them 100% when I really need help. But they can count on me for all kinds of help 100%. What I like most, living in Montreal is that I have all my privacy and a lot of freedom. People in the West really do cherish individual freedom of choice and privacy as opposed to the East. As mentioned by Kyuho, in most of Asian cultures, well at least those Buddhist or Confucianist based societies, everything people do individually is directly linked to collectivism for the well-being of families, communities and societies. There are strict rules to follow and most of the time, people as individuals have no say. All family members must be involved in decision-making . we cannot hide anything from them . Consequently, people have neither privacy nor freedom of choice. The good thing born out of this collectivism, is that I can count 100% emotionally and financially on my family members and my friends when I need help. We pull together to help our families and friends in trouble. I cannot say this in the West. The French proverb says it all:" Chacun chez soi." which basically means you're on own haha.

[@2hearts1seoul]

+CamAngkor Great comment~ There are definitely pros and cons when it comes to each type of culture~ I think it also differs from person to person and from family to family as well, no matter what culture you grew up in :)

[@camangkor4839]

+2hearts1seoul Yes definitely I agree with you.

[@sandramike5486]

The thing is in the West ppl expect foreigners to "melt" and forget their identity when they move to europe/US. And if you dont they say, "if you dont like it here go back to your country". While I feel like asia/korea respect others faiths and cultures.

[@davidwelo6736]

First of all, thank you for making this video. My story is similar to yours where my exwife is American and I am americanized man who moved to the US when I was very young where I do not have any problem with primary culture here. The only thing that stood out for us is that my exwife never knew about the asian culture in this case korean culture. It was always fine when we are just ourselves, but when we go to visit my family although my mother's been in the US as long as I have and my dad has always been visiting time to time, my wife found it uncomfortable being around my family. As far as I understand my family is unusually un-asian people I know. My exwife once expressed to me that even though we did not live with my family, she felt like she married to my family than married to me. Cutting it to the point, we split up due to our personality differences, not the family differences. So just would like to encourage you guys that I think what you two are doing is fantastic! -continue

[@davidwelo6736]

- I think everyone has different stories and as long as you guys do not give up on communicating to one another, the only matters are miner problems. Although I personally do not know you two, but if I may give you a humble advice: since Sarah is living in Korea where she is not able to revisit her family and her native culture as much as she wants, it is very important to have sarah to express her down time emotions and Kyuho should try to understand and allow her to express and comfort and encourage her for Sarah is there primary because of you Kyuho. And Im sure you guys already do and it will lift many burdens as more interracial couples you know in korea. :) sorry if I appeared to sound like "trying to teach a lesson". I'm not. I just think that you guys are a wonderful couple. I hope you guys will have more beautiful memories to share and loving one another as years go by. Cheers! :)

국제결혼을 꿈꾸는 뉴질랜드사는 한국인입니다. 사라씨같은 경우 한국에 있으면서 어느정도 한국문화를 받아들일 줄 아는 성향이 있다라고 느끼는데, 아예 한국을 모르는 외국인들에게 어떻게approach해야될까요. 혹시 조언을 주실수있으시면 부탁드리겠습니다. 참고로 저는 영어는 하긴 하는데 원할하게 하지를 못합니다. like intermediate lvl? 언어적인 장벽을 극복할 방법이 있을까요? 본의아니게 주제와 다른 이야기를 해서 송구스럽습니다. 저는 규호씨와 사라씨같은 연예 및 결혼을 꿈꾸는 순수한 청년입니다. 조언 부탁드립니다:)

@2hearts1seoul how young/ old are you & Kyu Ho? loving the way you live your lives. simply, fully & with frequent visits to spend time with family :)

[@AlyshiaJackson]

Hi, I was curious in Korea how often is it that you'll see young international couples (couples between the ages of 15 to 21)? Also I would like to know from both of you if you believe there's more pressure on males versus females in Korea to date (because I'm too young for marriage) within their own ethnicity? I'm referring more to teenagers or young adults. Thank you 😆

Hey guys, I don't know if you have read the book "The 4-hour work week." I haven't personally but it is highly recommended out there specially for people working from home. If you look up reviews and talks on it, the book apparently has changed people's lives. When I heard of it I thought of you guys since I don't know many people that work from home. Anyways, check it out and keep it up with the videos:)

[@n4musica]

I'm moving to Seoul this summer to teach chorus at an international school there! I'm so excited!

[@2hearts1seoul]

+naarahformusic Wow, congrats!! That's so exciting--international schools are tough to get in to 😄

[@n4musica]

Thank you!! I will graduate with a degree in Music Education in May (May 11th at 10:30 am but who's counting) :) .

[@hoayeuly]

[@2hearts1seoul]

[@DejikoUnicorn]

[@bradleykoon287]

Sara your style is pretty Korean. I like it.

[@zinebelhomsi2627]

Just so cute couple wish you the Best !! ✊💕💕🌸😊✨✨!! I really like this video~~

[@yseon232]

My boyfriend and I experience severe cultural differences :( I am a 1.5gen being grown up in Canada and my bf is an international student who was raised in Korea up until a year ago. Like you mentioned in the video, although I have really strict Korean parents my thoughts are more driven to individualistic thoughts and his are more collectivistic thoughts. When we get into a fight- I always express my thoughts to him right away if I am angry and he always 'hold back' on his thoughts because he thinks that by him expressing his thoughts- he does not want to ruin the mood of the another person. We always fight because of this and its been a year since we have dated and lived together but still to this date we still fight because of this matter. Any recommendations? :(

[@memjaym]

I want to hear Sarah speak Korean...

[@crystallee6199]

I guess I'm a third culture kid.. growing up in a different countries than where my parents are from, and I always don't know who I am, I just feel like I dont fit anywhere. Growing up in Hong Kong has given me a really internationalized concept, and in my school, there is a lot of foreigners. And also I have been studying in the States since 15. So when I first met my Korean boyfriend and started dating him, we did had a hard time! Like our beliefs in sexism, racism, or the pursue of education (as Asians mostly care about ranking, but I really don't, because of my cultural exposure to the American's culture). It was really hard for us in the beginning, but it is also a very unique and extraordinary experience for both of us!

[@angelaf5040]

You guys are wonderful!

[@n0adri]

Usually, third culture kids are pretty malleable and aren't very constrained with specific societal or cultural norms. So I think cultural differences don't really pose a problem with people like us. It would be a lot more challenging, I believe, with people that grew up in rigid, homogeneous cultures.

[@michelleim9470]

As a new viewer, does Sarah speak korean? is she fluent? still learning? do.you guys communicate better in englisb?

[@Sarah-oi9jg]

You guys are so awesome people!

[@ibushra9513]

Great video so interesting!

[@vickyrocks6666]

I wish i could give a million likes to this video. All the very best to you. Daebak.

[@2hearts1seoul]

+Vishal Jhangi Aww, thank you! :)

[@SS-jl3ej]

Sarah ur so lucky having a more international husband

[@crystallee6199]

Did Kyuho's parents accept Sarah in the beginning? Because I know Korea is a homogenous society, or an ethnic nationalism country, and I am afraid when I am going to meet my Korean boyfriend's parents

[@jechiquim]

Crystal Lee they were probably more open because they lived abroad and experienced different cultures

[@mashalyn2012]

It's funny to me what you said about expecting someone to give up their entire culture when they're in another country because in my intro to teaching class we had a brief history lesson about how in early 1900s American schools were totally focused on "Americanizing" new immigrants. It just reminds how arrogant my own country/culture has become. But I love being reminded that there are people like you two who aren't like this.

[@minyorpark4208]

nicest multi cultural couple i have ever seen but, hope that most viewers should know this couple is not the common case in Korea society.As Kyuho said in video, most parents are not that open to foreign partner since they just grew up in their own boundaries not facing to the other cultural information with economic problems. But yeah i agree they are becoming open to person from differen culture but still this couple is not general case in Korea.

[@wpl8275]

I think food is often the most lasting part of a culture. Immigrants come to the US and by the 3rd generation, they speak English and have a western/American mindset. First and second generation immigrants probably not so much. But food culture stays. Old family recipes passed down through the ages will keep that part of the immigrant family's culture alive. And when that gets lost its like losing a part of your soul. Even if you have newer family recipes that come in along the way, it's the older ones that need to be preserved the most.
