1. dont burn your meat, true! Generally someone on your table is the BBQer, you can put how ever much meat on as u want at a time. If the meat is ready serve your friends and keep them topped up, if everyone has enough food on their plate, you can leave it on the sides of the grill where it isnt hot so it doesnt burn, but still keeps it warm. It isnt disrespectful to burn your meat (unless u smoke the whole place out), but they will think ur dumb lol. Also just ask for a clean grill plate it your one gets too gunky, dont do it for every single meat change, omg annoying. 2. scissors are used to cut the meat. You do this once it is half cooked, not before or after, just any time in between. Making sure your spoon and chopstick is clean before sharing is such a western thing to say. I have NEVER seen or heard of ANYONE do this. Koreans usually eat "family style" so theyre definitely not germ-a-phobes. Theyd probably look at u funny. Koreans use their own spoons and dip it right into the communal stew, into their mouth and back into the stew and back into their mouth. Dont wipe your spoon or chopstick, it might offend them, like u are scared that they are dirty. Eating rice with a spoon is how koreans eat it, so dont feel bad if u cant eat rice with chopsticks. Its actually more correct to eat it with a spoon! 3. side dishes are free! but unlike in korea, if you live in a western country it might cost you $10 to get a refill (but ask for a refill anyway, they will tell u if it costs more). 4. eat ssam in one bite is correct, and a lot easier than not. Also it is correct to put side dishes/banchan in your wrap! I dont know why they straight up lied lol. you can put multiple meats in too, as well as cooked and uncooked kimchi and garlic, even rice! Literally whatver u want. 5. stews are called jjigae and they might be called stew or soup, since they are kinda inbetween them both. 6. Alcohol, also some straight up bad info in this video. The youngest will ALWAYS pour alcohol for everyone else out of respect for their elders. Someone else on the table will pour your drink for you, NEVER POUR YOUR OWN DRINK. As a rule if someone finishes their glass, you must fill it again. if u dont want it to be filled dont finish it. This goes for soju too. Just because it is in a small glass doesnt mean u have to shot it, many koreans just sip, especially if they are slowing down. Also try mixing 1 shot of soju into a glass of beer and mixing with a spoon, this is extremely common in korea, this is called somaek (soju and maekju/beer) If you are still having trouble, just watch a bbq video from the youtubers korean englishman. It will make you want to eat it even more! :)

This video isn't very accurate. I've lived in a Koreatown for nearly 8 years, my wife is Korean, I speak the language (not fluently but I don't need translation for most conversations). You never cook your own food - it's a liability having an unknown patron man the grill, but if you REALLY wanna eat the food properly, do the following: (1) If you order pork (specifically samgyeopsal), add some kimchi and garlic slices to the grill so they can simmer in some of the residual fat (great savory flavor and lines your stomach well for soju), (2) always get a soup (a jjigae) - the meats you cook can be added to those soups and the flavor from the meat can give your soup a great taste (also the soup itself can offer a unique taste to the meat), (3) never order chicken - Korean marinades have a tough time getting into that meat but nobody will judge you if you do, (4) never pour your own drink and always place your free hand on your pouring forearm if you pour for an elder, (5) out of respect, always turn your face away when consuming an alcoholic drink with an elder, and (6) always fight to pay for the meal. It ain't a meal if everyone ain't fighting to cover the tab lol.

When serving soju, yes. Korean drinking custom is very important to us, but a few specific notes: - Always pour your elders drink first, then give them the bottle so they can pour yours - Dont pour your own drink, later on it may become more acceptable when people have drunk more and you don't want to interject - When you toast (jjan) always have your glass lower then your elder, it shows respect - cover the label with your palm, don't know why just do it -hold the glass with one hand at the bottom, one holding the glasses sides, you can also place a hand on your wrist if that's easier or if they're further away - When pouring soju, one hand on the wrist, one grasping the bottle - When an elder's glass is empty, automatically refill it, an empty glass is a sign of disrespect, do not stop supplying them drink unless they explicitly tell you they're finished - When you toast and you dont want to take a drink, just press your lips to the glass at least, it shows a willingness to participate Those are the general rules, at the least. To be honest Korean barbecue, or gogi as we call it, doesn't have many "rules". Eat and have fun, be mindful of your manners and your table etiquette, its not too far removed from traditional Korean table manners. To me at least, the drinking culture is far more important, especially with soju.

they mean ask for a clean grill plate. your bbq will be charcol or fire (or sometimes even electric, but not as good) with a removable top to cook the meat on. Just think of the grill plate as a cooking pan that u need to wash the gunked up stuff on it off before you start cooking again.

Xavier, obviously, they serve you clean grills. However, as you use the grill, it collects grilled/burnt meat especially the ones with marinade. At that point, you would want to replace your grill with a fresh/clean one.

When I went to a couple Korean restaurants you could put some of the side dishes in the wrap like kimchi and fermented bean sprouts. You could also add rice; just be mindful that it will fill you up quicker than you think. It was sort of like you could make the wraps however you want to, as long as you can eat it in one bite.

You can put meat, ssamjang, bean sprouts, kimchi, cooked kimchi, spring onion, cooked garlic, different meats, you can put as much as u want (including ALL of the side dishes, or banchan, expect maybe the potato salad/macaroni). Just make sure u can fit it all in your mouth though haha

Im in no way trying to insult anyone BUT Barbecue is not even from Texas, Missouri, or Tennessee it's Mexican/Spanish called Barbacoa. So what Korean BBQ really is is Grilling, however i Don't care if they call it Barbecue and i do like KBBQ but please dont try to sound like its on par with Barbecue from America, because Barbacoa is specific to Coals and aromatic types of wood and usually on a Spit. Korean BBQ is more like Argentine Parrillada, which means grilling.

The weird swing at KBBQ in texas is... so weird. I grew up here, found KBBQ here and have had most of my KBBQ in the Texas/Austin area. I have also traveled and had it in other states and regions and simply put, kbbq in texas is not texas-ified at all. There are already no baby back ribs or, what was it, bbq sandwich with coleslaw? LOL where'd you get that? SMH our kbbq here is run by korean people and they serve it as authentic as every other state. So your comment clearly indicates, you haven't had it here, you're just making an ignorant joke based off the two types of BBQ and have no idea what texas is really like. Nice.

Dude… if someone comes to your place (or even your country) you expect them to adhere to your cultural standards/what is considered polite (stuff like idk… tipping waiters (which in the US is a bigger tip compared to many other countries), idk dont „eat loudly“ or things that might seem normal to you but are not for someone else) you would be greatly offended, and assuming by your „manners“ would make it known to them. you should be happy they come visit you in the first place. either accept them as they are in their culture when they are the foreigners, or you adapt to their culture when you are the foreigner. yea, otherwise stay at Burger King.
