If you don’t follow us on social media, you probably have no clue that we’re in Korea right now! We were so swamped with work leading up to our trip that we didn’t have time to even announce it here on our blog or on our YouTube channels. In fact, we were so busy editing, rendering, and uploading videos up to the last minute that Joe had to pull an all-nighter, and we packed for our long trip at 3am, just a few hours before we boarded the plane!
We decided to use this trip as an opportunity to try our hand at daily vlogging. We’ll see how it goes. As of now, we can’t edit and upload a new video everyday, but we’re trying our best to at least document a little bit each day as a video diary series of our entire Korea trip. We’re staying with Joe’s brother’s family (who we’re visiting for the first time since they moved here), and Joe’s parents are visiting at the same time as well. We have a few family obligations to take care of first, but our activity should pick up soon.
We hope you stay tuned for our vlogs that we’ll try to post up regularly from Korea, and we hope you like them. It’s not easy working while on “vacation,” but that’s what we signed up for with this crazy YouTube life. We thought it would be nicer to share our experience while we’re still here rather than waiting to come back home to filter through countless mounds of footage. We just utilize our time late at night or early in the morning while everyone is asleep. The jet lag definitely gives us a leg up with that! To see what we’ve done so far, watch our first Korea Trip Vlog below:

Also, if you want to stay connected with us “live,” follow us on Snapchat! We’ll be here in Korea for a while, and you’ll get the first glimpses of what we’re doing. We’ve been good about updating our stories daily, so find us there and add us as your friends! Usernames: chefjulieyoon | joeyoon77
Lastly, what are your recommendations for us to eat or do while we’re here in Korea? We plan to stay mostly around Seoul. Leave it in the comments below…maybe we’ll actually get to do some of it! Thanks in advance!

Hi Emily.
Thanks for your recommendations. I hope we have time to check them out! Do you live in Korea or do you just visit often?
I live in NYC and I’ve visited Seoul/Busan a few times in the past 5 years. I really miss how delicious the food is in Korea!!
Oh, and every single street food in Insadong YUMMMMM!! One of my favorite cute walkable neighborhoods.
Hi Emily.
Nice! We walked around Insadong too and it was super cute. Thanks for all your recs!
