China and Korea have a strong Confucian influence and a tradition of despotism, while Japan has a strong Buddhist influence and a tradition of feudalism. As anyone living in East Asia will know, Japan and China/Korea are completely different countries.

As a teacher (high school) I have had kids from all over the world. Sometimes pronouncing names can be hard, but I tell them if I get it wrong, to correct me. I say that it may take a while, but if they keep correcting me, sooner or later I'll get it right. There's no reason not to try to get someone's name right. It just takes patience and persistence.

Those last two lines right there. Exactly. Really appreciate your attitude to this, even more so considering you are a teacher. It shows your students It's important to respect things like getting someone's name right, or at least to make an effort; our name is after all a part of our identity. The other person would surely appreciate that we at least tried... and sometimes a name could just be hard for someone to say too Ig Also feel a similar way about spelling- it could either be that your name is pretty common with a certain spelling and I get it, it's understandable ppl might assume that's the spelling itself, but if at least you know it's a name that can have varied spellings, imo, best to ask the person first, like how it might be more likely with rarer names there could of course be ppl who might be chill w how others might say/write their names for varied reasons - some, possibly not all that happy - but personally, have always found it irksome when someone spells my name wrong. But it's in a way thanks to that, that I'll always try my best to make sure not to mispronounce/misspell someone's name ...ok that became long lol

In my country no matter where you go, there's always rice everywhere and we even have rice dishes like Pulao, Biryani and Kichuri. Most people are probably familiar with Biryani. These rice dishes also have their own different flavors and side dishes. Let's not forget how we have different kind of rice like long thin rice, thick long rice or small rice.

I’ve also heard of Korean Americans who need to speak Korglish when they go to Korea or else they won’t be understood.

My name is from Hebrew origin, my Dad says that my name means "God's right hand" and when I interact with Japanese streamers they call me in a similar fashion as my name, they refer to me as "エルジャミン(pronounced: Erujamin)" using Katakana. And it made pronouncing my name sort of easier. When I say something in chat, they say "エルジャミンさん、こんにちわ。"(pronunciation: Erujamin-san, Konnichiwa) (translation: hello, Mr. Eljamin) which I'm OK with that. And if a person doesn't pronounce my name very well, I just simply don't mind.

lmao i wasnt expecting prozd in the thumbnail

I never heard anyone ever consider Chinese or Japanese food as spicy, and I live in a place where spicy food is not common or popular. Korean food is widely seen as spicy, not Chinese or Japanese food.

China is huge, is basically equivalent to Europe. So in Guangdong the food is not spicy, and along the coastal line Fujian, Zhejiang, Jiangsu, Shandong generally not spicy. Then u go inland, like Sichuan, famous for their chillies. Then u go to Hunan, u realize Sichuan is more flavorful than spicy, cause Hunanese people can take chillies like a boss. Then u go further to Jiangxi, every meal is a torture to your anus...

There is a stew in Argentina made of potatoes, rice, tomato sauce and chicken, or sausage. Arroz con pollo, rice with chicken, a winter staple. Otherwise we mostly don't eat rice unlees you are on diet or broke. For me meat if the main dish, everything else is side dishes. Though in winter we do a lot of pasta dishes, everything with meat. Preferably cow meat, budget meat would be chicken.

It's amazing how multilingual all four of them are.

I remember as a kid there was this stereotype that Japanese tourists take lots of pictures of everything. I thought this was made up. Then as I got older I discovered a nugget of truth to this. As far as the names this comes many ways. First of all not all European names are English names. depending on what country they’re from some people tend to struggle to pronounce my name so I let them to call me by another version of my name.

Having worked in tourism... the chinese are the least disciplined with pictures. Japanese people tended to actually drop the pictures a while to listen to the tour presentation, and sneak a picture here and there, which is ok and about what you'd expect from anybody. But they were extremely considerate of the people speaking. Altho I have to say, organised "company trips" were the worst with chinese tourists. Casual chinese tourists weren't that different, save for a couple quirks every culture might have.

I'm from Bangladesh and i can confirm in my country its impossible to have a meal without rice like their can be fish,chicken,beef,veggis or lentals as alot of different side dishes but only rice or dishes made with rice like polao,biriyani or kacchi have to be the main dish sometimes we eat roti as main dish which is made of flour but its really rare but rice the most common one everytime in every where in my country u will see rice as a main dish

they talked about spicy or spiced foods. But what's a common? How do they flavor the foods? Mixed ground pepper (green, black)? Salt(s)? cayenne pepper (red powder)? worcestershire sauce (ha ha ha omg i can't spell it and our pronouncing it is off too we include the shire at the end. the stuff is great in tiny amounts to give a more full flavor)? chopped onions, or some green/red/yellow bell peppers? I think it would be intereing to hear how they cook some common dishes for each country. See how different it all is.

The forgetting to cook rice is relatable to my family too. My mom who is Puerto Rican also expects the rice to be done before she starts cooking.

Korean girl has such a good American accent.

I agree, she sounds like she's spent a lot of time in the US or Canada (assumingly the airline she mentioned working for).

In indonesia, if you dont eat rice that was not breakfast even you already eat a full bowl of noodles

In some Latin American countries we also eat rice and bread or tortillas or potatoes. It's common to have two sources of carbs. I also consider a subway like a snack. Even burgers don't fill me completely unless I order large fries as well (and sometimes I eat a dessert too). It's interesting how rice is Asian and we use it a lot in Latin America. On the other hand, hot peppers are Latin American and they're used throughout Asia. At least a few good things came out of European colonization.

As a Haitian it is the same thing, rice is the main dish and everything is a side. Our food is also very flavorful and growing up I ate rice virtually every day.

Foreign names... I was once on a trip to America. I came across a tour group comprised mostly of British chicks, with the additions of a British dude, and a Japanese and Korean gal and guy who I can't remember which was which. They were like a week into their trip at that point. I talked to the Asian girl and asked about her name. She was visibly uncomfortable and said that the other girls call her Sunny since her name is too hard to say. I asked for it anyway, and she said "Soni", with the stress on the second syllable. I repeated the name after her, stressing the second syllable, and her face lit up. She was so happy to hear her name, the gloom was completely lifted up. If you have the chance to learn someone's name properly, do so. Don't try to make up an easier name for them.

I’ve worked in Korea for a number of years. My name is Terrance/Terry-hard on the Asian tongue, so I introduce myself as Tae-ri. In Honduras, some difficulties for the locals, so I used my middle name- Albert, which becomes Alberto or Berto…

7:02 this part of the video was very fun for me, because, as a brazilian i also identified myself. Here in Brazil we also eat rice every day as a accompaniment for the meals, could be Meat, Chicken or Fish, or even pasta in some situations, we will always have rice,personally, i've stopped to eat rice every day, but the rest of my family eats, and every day i have to prepare the rice for the lunch 😂

As a Chinese American, I can definitely confirm the hot water one. My mom always made me drink hot water even in the middle of summer, she never let me put ice in my drinks at restaurants too lol The rice one is so real too, like I forgot to make the rice one day and have never forgotten since

I guess it’s pretty relevant for Russians. No one would force you to drink hot water in summer. But we can drink hot tea in summer. Also some people think hot drinks help you to deal with heat weather. But of course we prefer cold drink when it’s boiling outside. In cold seasons we prefer hot smth. And I was struggling in Japan in early-mid spring because of ice in every drink. Once when I asked for tea without ice they gave me this but they use cup from the freezer, lol. So close. But every one was very nice and they really tried to help me.

Speaking of Japanese food, I do sometimes find myself seeking out sushi when I want something good but light with it's taste. If I want to go for something heavier, I go for some tonkotsu ramen.

I can still remember when I was a kid whenever I hear my father’s toyota revo has (distinct sound) I go rush downstairs to cook rice

Poor Japanese girl got told her country’s food is bland. From what I know, Japanese rely on fresh ingredients, skill of cooking, and natural flavors to do the talking. Except spicy ramen, from what I’ve heard that’s not only overly flavorful, but a nightmare to eat since the spicyness coats your throat.

Shpishe fooda ees a derriiishas! (Spicy food is delicious!) tried to do that most Korean accent as I could spell it. I was there for 2 years and loved it.

there are a lot of differences in between those too, i worked in a hotel with a lot of those big chinese travel groups and those from hong kong wer always busy apologizing to the staff for the behavior of the others from like shanghai, especially in the breakfast room. also a group from japan i remember had guys from tokyo saying stuff like, don't mind them they are from osaka, they don't know better... whut? but at least, japanese always left tip in the rooms for the cleaning staff, those then always started kind of a race, when they saw japanese names on their lists. thats actually how they managed to lean how to tell the type of names apart, unlike the rest of the staff that doesn't get any tip, they just define them all as chinese and be done with it... even though with japanese names, it's usually very easy to tell, that they are not chinese, since they don't get anything out of it to make sure to get it right, they don't care and since no complains are being made...

I hope Jane and Kotoha will appear as well.

Im happy to see all 3 of my favorite Asian countries get along (unlike there governments)

I can totally relate to the name thing. My name is Gallagher, and most people say it wrong, I have stopped even bothering to correct them. Some also shorten it because it is easier (for them) to say, so they call me Galle, or Gal. It is why I try very hard to get peoples names right.

Wow amazing! This also goes out to every country out here I feel you. My name is not Peter PArker btw, I only have this account cuz when I Was kid I would cry when I see Spiderman save Gwen and I'm always a fan of his acting in spiderman..... :)

The names thing I can completely understand. It’s very difficult to discern sounds you’re not familiar with, and English speakers have to work much harder at it, because almost everyone in the world wants to learn that language. Think about it this way: you are expecting a native English speaking person to be able to discern the unique sounds in *dozens* of different languages on first hearing, while each person learning English only has to recognize the sounds in one. Just in my local area, we have people from Vietnam, China, Hong Kong, Taiwan, Japan, Korea, Cambodia, Ethiopia, Somalia, Nigeria, Ghana, Brazil, Mexico, Cuba, Iran, Israel, Russia, India, and so on. They only have to recognize my name in English, a language they are already learning; I have to be able to duplicate the sounds in *all* those languages, most of which I have never studied. Most of the time I think we don’t get enough credit for trying.

As a Korean, I cook rice every morning so I have it to eat throughout the day. I keep it in my rice cooker on "keep warm" for an hour, then keep it off for an hour and a half. That will usually keep it warm all day. The worst thing to find out is that you have to wait 30 minutes to eat your meal because you forgot to cook rice.

In my country, everybody has some sort of nickname/shortened name of their actual longer name, and the name I usually go with is Sari, but my foreigner friends always butcher the pronunciation and my American ex actually called me "Sorry" lol. Also, they get confused since my first name is not Sari, since it's actually taken from the middle part of my name. I got tired of explaining that in my country we don't go with first name-last name format, so from then on I just tell my foreigner friends to call me "Fi", which is the first two letters of my first name, since they can't spell my full first name anyway.

the one i found the most true in this was the hot water stereotype. I worked at a family owned chinese restaurant for 5 years and they would come out in three hour intervals to fill their tumblers with hot water all the time. any time wed get sick they would suggest hot water. if we had acne breakouts they'd suggest hot water, it was always appreciated though

Honestly it's not just Asian names that get butchered. My last name is Cajun-Creole. It is kind of long and I don't expect people to get all the pronunciation right. But people often just see the front and back letters and make up everything in between. Basically if you don't have a name that originated in the British Isles you are out of luck. I kind of wish this video had gone in on some more terrible stereotypes. I've a few Asian family members and friends and I hear a lot about it from them. Not just the name butchering, but being treated differently.

Guys, if you forget to cook rice in the rice cooker, you can do it fast in a regular pot. Start with cold water, rinsing is pointless with jasmine rice because almost no starch (unless you like extra mushy), High fire until boiling with a little bit of extra water and keep it high until the water is just on top of the rice, then low mid until water is gone, rice should have air holes and it should look like how it looks when cooked, turn that shit off and let it sit. Should be done in less than about 10 mins. Well, he's screwed regardless because 5 mins.

I have never clicked so fast after I saw Yui in the thumbnail.

The people who complain all Asian food is spicy are the same people who complain all Mexican food is spicy after having just one taco. If you don't like spicy dishes, there are other dishes within Asian cuisines for you, the same way there are for other cuisines. In Cuban cuisine for example, despite the Habanero being named after Havana, we don't use Habaneros in our cuisine and our cuisine isn't actually spicy but it's still flavorful. The strongest thing you'll get from a Cuban isn't a dish but our espresso, or as we like to call it, a cafecito. I like to call it the strongest stuff on Earth. The cuisines of Latino countries (same goes for Asian countries) are different from each other as cultures evolved and I think people don't realize that.

6:01 I find it funny that when we westerners try to get explanatory and pedagogic by explaining something, our Asian audience go like "aaahhh..." but in the back of their minds they are playing us all around.

Many people don't think all Asian food is spicy. Personally, I think Japanese food for example is really subtle and I love that. Korean food is tasty and so delicious - I'm a fan. As for authentic Chinese food, it is so diverse and uses so many ingredients - I love it, especially Szechuan cuisine 😍
