Two of my favorite Korean foods - 떡볶이 and 순대 (GO! Billy Eats)
Have you ever tried 떡볶이 or 순대 before? These are two of my favorite Korean foods - especially 순대.
떡볶이 is made with soft rice cake (떡 means "rice cake"), and is a sweet and spicy dish that you can buy at many street-side restaurants.
순대 is essentially a blood sausage (it's not an American "sundae"), made with pig intestine.... Should I go on? Don't let the thought of it turn you off. 순대 is my favorite Korean food for a reason, and it's delicious.
Check out the video below to learn more~!

Have you ever tried Korean pizza? (GO! Billy Eats)
Did you know that Korean pizza is different from other kinds of pizza? A typical pizza in Korea can cost between $10~30, depending on the place and the toppings. $30 might sound like a lot of money for a pizza, but it's definitely worth it.
In this video I check out an amazing pizza with steak, potatoes, barbeque sauce, and a ton of other ingredients you'd never find anywhere else. There's a reason I'm always willing to pay the price to eat a pizza in Korea - and why I miss Korea so much when I'm not there.
And have you ever wondered how to order a pizza in Korean? Watch the first part of this video (I recommend pausing and writing it down) to find out one way how. There are subtitles for ordering in both English and Korean.
