28:43 yay it's me darcie! it was so much fun to introduce k-drinking-cultures!! happy new year steven!

[@KoreandramaTrend]

Cute

[@LaNoir.]

It's so interesting to see the difference between japanese and korean girls. While japanese girls act timid and humble, korean girls are so fun and outgoing. That pick-up line to the waitress was so sleek, it sent me laughing

[@wirrexx]

You made me so happy with your Energy, thank you for sharing!! I hope that i can take my Wife to Korea some day. Try everything there!

[@nile7999]

I found Darcie through buzzfeed and have been a fan ever since, super cool to see my fandoms colliding to come full circle again

[@aDhVanz]

한국을 아는 분들이 컨텐츠 기획에 많이 참여하고 신경썼다는 것을 알 수 있네요. 단순히 컨텐츠 목적으로 인기있는 것들만 담는 게 아니라, 관광으로 한국에 방문한 외국인이 경험해 볼만한 것들에 대해 감상과 자잘한 설명들이 있어서 마음에 듭니다.

[@KimchiAndBananaMilk]

So cool to see Steven's wife Tammy make an appearance! I was waiting for her to show up in a video at some point and what a great one! Steven's love of food always makes me happy, and the love he has for his friends and family makes me even happier! I've always wanted to go to Korea and this video makes me want to go even more!!

[@FlavorofMind]

You should come! Korea has so many great things to offer, besides the fact that its culinary scene is off the charts!

[@zelly4914]

That auntie in charge of Euji Dabang was the sweetest grandmotherly person! Loved her with Steven.

Yeap. Its the milk sugars (lactose) that’s the problem

@@ziggystatdust6008 it's true, cheese is also made from milk fat and sometimes it's just naturally lactose free because of how long it ages even with the aspect of Whey being involved.

Absolutely love that you showcased the beauty of Korea very well along with the food of course!!

[@chinmaykulkarni3182]

How are all the korean ladies so cite and wholesome in this video??!! Right from the grandma at the first place to darcie and also the Home Cook lady and even the audio girl at the intestine bbq and the whole crew ...They just feel so welcoming and calm to be friends with...

[@closetskeletons]

darcie complimenting the lady was so cute!! love her

[@jucashewpi]

please engage well with this video I need more Steven Lim content

[@Taylor-tt6dd]

[@riahgutierrez3389]

when they said Korean fried chicken I knew they were eating bbq chicken! I work at a bbq chicken here is So Cal, never really ate Korean food until working there but the owners only speak Korean, we may not be able to communicate vocally or traditionally but I love them so muchhhhh this video was so heart warming to me because I got to see Korean culture that I recognize from them and it warmed my heart

[@marihoodwink]

Korean food always looks soooo good! I really want to try that egg tea thing cuz it looks so interesting. Also nice to see Steven again

[@dishatrivedi9461]

Watching Steven is just so entertaining. Plus I feel like I am traveling with him.

[@fraucarrar2812]

Shy Steven is really sweet and warming my heart when he's at the aunts place! Also it's so cool, that she did that and that the chose to visit her!

[@tiffyj]

Omg, I love this video sooo much. I hope they will get a lot more subs, so they have the means to do something like this (visiting other countries) more often in the future. I really like Ryan and Shane. However Steven seems way more natural, more inartificial in his videos, which I enjoy very much. Thanks for this lovely video! 😘🇰🇷

[@yaleyoon6856]

I appreciate the variety of places and foods Steven and the team visited throughout Seoul. I like that they got to visit a Korean home and have home food for breakfast. Sets it apart from the rest which are all restaurant and café food.

[@makennamann6206]

The elder lady in the first video is so sweet and genuine. ❤

[@marshayame]

This is the travel food series we want!! Also, Korean people are so amazing and kind. 💛

[@rsn5012]

1:35 ooh i love cream in my buns 😂 had me wheezing 18:22 oh it's sticky and warm 😂 Steven cannot stop with the double entendre 😂

[@elizabethpage_]

I hope this becomes a series. Such a lovely video

[@Rashelle-zb4kq]

All of this food looks so good! Glad to see some Steven content

[@desperateminds7]

Omg i was so surprised to see Anna!!! i love her content on tiktok so much 🥹❤️

[@TayTks]

I'm going back to Korea for my second time this year and cheap soju and convenience store food are for real two of the biggest reasons why I can't wait to go back lol

[@ahaha420xx]

read the title and instantly pictured steven eating the state of korea. on the ground, devouring handfuls of dirt eating through korea.

[@napiltree5917]

Imagine, that would be epic

[@fuegofuego127]

This isn’t the content I’d typically seek out, but I LOVE Steven’s food programming. This video in particular was super fun and interesting.

[@Imberis]

Gosh, this all looks so freaking good. I love the variety that you get with basically every sit-down meal.

[@freya2294]

thank you to team watcher for making 2022 so special! here's to a watcher 2023 ❤

[@ellenchao5350]

the video hasnt even started yet and im already so excited for steven content

[@kori-rr8ro]

STEVENS BACK!! so happy to see more content of him :))

[@hannahcoles3981]

loved this! was so interesting to see different parts of Korea and all the food looked amazing!

[@aval00]

This video reminds me of being a kid watching the travel channel, only slightly more chaotic. Hope they make this a miniseries or something!

[@DrtyALGreen]

My buddy was stationed there for 6 months and love it so much. It really opened my eyes to how cool Korea is. Then I found the Worth It episode with Evan and Chef and my Fridge and I was in love with Korean culture too. Another plus is they know how to do plastic surgery..... you're not supposed to blow your lips up or pull your cheeks so tight than everyone knows you've had work. You're supposed to make it subtle so you look good and people don't know it's work.

[@tcguerrero5476]

Awesome ❤️❤️ and such a nice surprise to see my favorite Anna!!

[@amxtorres]

The video is so good, I was completely focused on every second of it. Amazing vibe, it made me relax and wanted to taste the majority of the dishes. Well done!!!

[@recoveringintrovert717]

That lady at the BTS restaurant was so sweet and motherly. Love her

[@ghost_type_dan]

I'm happy to see Annie again, I saw her in Ruining History and was curious what she was up to now

[@Monica-fs8bp]

holy shit this made me nostalgic for korea and uncovered memories i didn't realize i forgot. this is so real

[@robinbeaulieu7700]

Thank you Steven, Ami, & Crew, for taking us along on ur amazing food tour of Seol- Korea. My first experience of Korean food culture! :) An auspicious start to 2023 :+

[@heath8377]

Good to see Big Apple Stevie!

[@markdavidmagat9866]

Love that this is a chill video! I watched this while eating my dinner and I really enjoyed it!

[@SilentRaving]

Steven!! I've been missing him on the channel, it was fun to see him again - and all the food he got to try in seoul!

[@OneWingedAngelsBand]

I got this idea from the Korean show Running Man. It'd be fun if Steven did this 24 hr hour food trip where he'd call his friends (Ryan, Shane, etc) blindly. And he has to eat whatever they recommend him. So it can be a day eating a variety of dishes... or spend a whole day eating noodles 🤣

[@luvrenee]

[@floopsydaisy9606]

This video was so cool. I don't watch a lot of food content but you guys always do it so well: informative, enthusiastic & honest. I don't know if it's just me but I struggled with the audio in this video, particularly in the section with the intestines etc. The music was so loud over the male friend I struggled to hear the voices. I think I'm getting old 😂!

[@kittypunch2260]

Aaaah some steven content 💖💖💖💖

Brooo, you were one of my inspirations for content, I would have loved to take you around Korea! Keep pumping out the amazing videos and thank you for your positive vibes!

[@annaslovesyou]

thats so funny because I was just thinking about annainseoul and then she came into the vid!! great collab

[@leileleileleile]

I loved this show! A gentle piece of feedback: the VO in some places sounded wonky which took a bit away from the polish of this lovely video.

[@DANGMQ]

Last mention of Steven on this channel (not counting behind the scenes of Watcher) was when he was indirectly mentioned in the last "Are You Scared?" where Shane joked that one of the founders of Watcher doesn't wear deodorant and that Ryan said he was "off camera"

[@jinxydoll]

Okay... Darcie is ADORABLE.

[@dinoucop]

need more content with darcie!!!

[@TheStabbyCyclist]

Bingu is amazing. The first time I had it was in Tumon Bay, Guam. Too few Americans have experienced it. Wish I could find more places with it.

[@ItsLi90]

I miss East/Southeast asian food （especially Thai food） , dont get to eat it right now ,where i am…

[@flowerbit4137]

no for real korean fried chicken literally looks next level in all of the ads and in dramas etc. Like… I’m literally a vegetarian. I haven’t eaten meat in like 6 years. I’m not saying I would actually eat it… I really would not eat it, but I’d like to see it in real life and smell it to see if it really seems like it is as good as it looks on my phone screen lol.

Annie! I don't watch a lot from Watcher. Not because I don't like it, but I haven't had the time to become familiar with it. I subscribed because of Steven because I love Worth It. The last few years Annie hasn't appeared on Worth It and I was wondering where she was.

텐트에 대한 규정은 "이상한짓" 즉 공공질서를 해치는 일에 대한거라 보통은 생각하는데, 사실은 4면이 가림막이 있는건, "집"으로 간주하기 때문입니다 불법 거설물이 되는거죠, 그래서 2면이상 뚫려있는건 그냥 휴식을 위한 그늘막으로 인정해서 가능한거고요
