Surviving on $10 a Day in Korea

I survived a day on $10 in Seoul, and it was awesome!!

Where I live all 10$ can get me is a macdonalds meal 💀

I can't even get a McDonalds meal with that amount of money breh. NY is so freaking expensive

[@lucyshiki9604]

When I was studying abroad in korea, my meals ranged from 7- 13 dollars a day. And all the food was filling and delicious

[@jinni9957]

I’ve been craving for hotteok since the original video first came out! Gonna have to find some in my country, or hopefully visit SKorea soon!

[@Uniquevibes444]

Love the fact that the food is a reasonable price/ looks delicious 💫💫💫

[@rxlxviii]

Where I live jjajang myun costs $13, Kalguksu costs $19, and tteokbokki costs $18...all before tax and tip. Add about 30% if including tax and tip, they become $17, $25, and $24. So what cost you $10, costs me $66.

[@jsong21]

There is no way 짜장면 칼국수 and 떡볶이 costs that much in Korea.. lmao.... there is also no tax and no tip in korea... so what r u talking about...

[@WhatThePhoking]

@@jsong21 are you dumb? This person is obviously not talking about in Korea. The fact that they mentioned tip is a dead giveaway. Read better.

[@keshavnuwal7991]

In india dollar 10 can get u a 2 full good quality meal plus u will have spare money for breakfast and an ice-cream cone..

[@aldinoruswandi]

I thought India was cheaper than Indonesia, because in Indonesia u can get 10 meals with 10 dollars. 1. Nasi Goreng 2. Nasi Padang 3. Warteg 4. Pecel Lele 5. Ayam Geprek 6. Nasi Uduk 7. Sate Ayam 8. Bubur Ayam 9. Soto 10. Ketoprak and a lot more other options 😅

[@kawaranai6742]

​@@aldinoruswandi again, it depends on where you buy your stuff In restaurant chains, things are more expensive, and the same is the case with fancy restos But mort businesses allow you to buy a filling meal for less than a dollar, and I'm saying that from my experience as a Bangalore native, where things are more expensive than most other places

[@aldinoruswandi]

@@kawaranai6742 We're talking about street food here like in the video, that people buy in their daily basis. Btw, you can get 3 fulfilling meal in a restaurant with only $10 in Indonesia. My favourite one are Solaria, Gourami Restaurant, and Padang Restaurant.

[@akip7627]

+ extra dirt

[@Bepis-man]

In the us $10 feeds half a person for 1 meal if you're not going to mcdonalds

[@soyoon4696]

Literally here you can’t have tteokbokki for less than 10/15$ 💀

[@taylorb2001]

This all looks AMAZING! I’m pescatarian, and I feel that my meals wouldn’t be as limited in Asian countries as they are here in the USA

[@nurfauziahmad4435]

I can survive for more than a week with that $10 but I guess different countries have different pay

[@dumby2175]

In the US $10 will get you half a slice of bread

[@BTG07]

$10 in japan gets you better quality but less quantity.

[@mmkktj]

Wah! I seriously wanna try that kalguksu every time I was in Korea! but was skeptical about the broth! My 한국어 was still at its infancy at that point of time so I couldn’t ask to clarify! Now that I know I’ll definitely wanna go and try there.

[@nana-iv3si]

[@Lex02615]

As a filipino, having a modest 4 meals a day eating on cheap cafeterias. You can easily live off at 6-8$ a day.

[@jnnkmm]

Where are u at in korea to have these prices cuz I was at seoul and changwon but there is no black bean noodle that is $3 😢 inflation is real bad right now

[@modupeharrison8989]

Nothing like eating hot noodles on a hot day with hot metal dishes. If you haven't you're missing out.

[@CarrotMelk]

[@forexdragon]

Where on earth can you get jjajangmyun for 3,000 won? Where is this place?

[@vueport99]

Can't do that every day.. Not a balanced diet. But far better than instant noodles

[@jenniferfrank1652]

You're a badass

[@arfriedman4577]

Some of this food looks good. I'm picky. To a nyc person, great price. The rice cakes look interesting.

[@Artie_2015]

Bro you look like the emperor from a Korean drama I watched where the main character got body swapped with the queen.

[@celty5858]

Minus a city like Seoul or other cities, is it really so cheap to live in Korea? 😮

Try the same in India, you could have gormet food with 10 dollars.

[@jiminslonglostjam]

why no is talking bout how he looks so much like kim jung hyun. are y'all brothers or something?

[@MiguelVerdades1]

I was going to say the same xD

[@ashblake894]

In India you can eat like a king for $10.

[@chaikagaz]

The food is cheap because its proportional to the minimum wage in korea. Aka not much which is why poor countries rely on tourism. But korea has rising prices in the cities.

[@tarampryce1372]

I love rice cakes but after a 2 years eating only bland hospital foods I cannot eat spice anymore

I'm in Seoul atm and I personally can't find many vegetarian options :/ does someone have some tips for me?

[@DeerRyNa]

What year was this video made… Jjajangmyeon and Kalguksu in my area is nowhere this cheap… I can get a roll of kimbap for $3.50 though if I remember correctly.

[@adobokkeumbap]

it depends on the area. in areas like gangnam/seocho, hannam, apgujeong, etc. if you’re in a neighbourhood closer to the city, it’s highly likely the food is going to be expensive. in other smaller 동네s or neighbourhoods, it’s usually in also small places not run by corporations and stalls that sell cheaper if you’re interested enough to explore quieter places.

[@DeerRyNa]

@@adobokkeumbap It was in Cheonan, outside of Seoul, it’s pretty quiet tbh. Edit: the restaurants were also owned by the people who live there.

[@lennymomanyi7104]
