9 Essential Korean YouTubers You Won’t Regret Binging
As someone who’s kept very busy during this quarantine, I (along with probably many others) am beginning to run out of Netflix and Hulu options. Due to this unexpected shortage of binging options, I’ve turned to Youtube as a great platform to add to my streaming app rotation.
Youtube is now the second most visited site after Google and over 5 billion videos are watched every single day. There are tons of Korean YouTubers tailored to essentially any kind of video you’re looking for.
Below are 9 of my favorites varying from popular channels with 5.69M followers to lesser known but exciting up and comers. Enjoy and don’t stay up too late watching!
-Food-
Maangchi cooks hundreds of authentic Korean recipes right in front of you. She also has a second channel where she teaches how to write and pronounce the names of popular Korean dishes.
Sio is a Korean mukbanger who hosts his own eating show based in Korea. Though his shows are non-talking and only-eating, he includes English subtitles in his intros and outros.
This ASMR cooking account features recipes of various dishes, emphasizing extraordinary Korean desserts- all visually (and audibly) aesthetic!
