Korean culture is so inspiring and innovative and interesting I love it

OMG Peter's accent is amazing. Also Hanoks rock, a few of my family and friends in korea live in them. Building one in the states is one of my dreams.

@@dudadeda1234 building codes are not written in stone. if you can get an engineer to sign off on the plans and say it's structurally sound then you shouldn't have any issues. The biggest issue would be what is the climate you plan to build it in. There is a reason that you see a lot of adobe style clay houses in the south west but not in the north east. As much as I would love a house like this, I don't see it lasting long where I live in Ohio. Nature would decide to not live in harmony with it and destroy it.

@@Fektthis the climate in korea is very similar to the US, especially the midwest. winters in south korea are just as brutal as the winters here in michigan (38 years here). you'd be surprised at how efficient hanok are in the winter. and the cold air circulation actually helps with respiratory infections and illness.

They really shot the process of building the heating system, how incredible!

Hanok is a traditional architectural style that represents Korea. Tile and ondol highlight the scientific design that cannot be found in other countries. If you look closely at hanok, you can see that it is a building that can live in harmony with nature. It is a beautiful building where you can feel the beauty and culture of Korea and get a glimpse of the ancestors.

At this point, Peter is Korean. Expression and accent. When you can feel in that language, its real. But these house are ❤❤❤❤

they have to be built corredtly, though. poorly built hanok and ondol can cause carbon monoxide and carbon dioxide poisoning. my mom had to deal with this growing up in rural south korea. i live in the US now, and want to build a modern home that is inspired by hanok. it will have clay heated floors and clay mudding in the living quarters for sure.

Korea and Japan my favourite countries! I love everything there from their cuisine to the houses.💚

Assuming you don’t live in Korea already, I’d recommend to pick your timing carefully and opting for late summer or autumn: despite what’s been said in the video, it can actually be uncomfortable during cold winters or hot summers in Korea. I also wouldn’t recommend spring as the air pollution tend to be too high. Choose your location wisely too, hanoks are not the best at keeping the noise out, but obviously you also don’t want to stay in a remote area if you are a woman travelling by herself. Best of luck on your adventure, hope you’ll have a great time!

It would be so wonderful to visit Korea and stay in a hanok!

Actually Only Rich people here in korea who want to live in a natural and traditional hanok can build a 100sq meter hanok with court yard,why? Because building a hanok is actually EXPENSIVE than building a western style house... the needed wood especially pine trees is actually so expensive here.. korea actually import woods from eastern europe, canada and russia.. for 100sq meters hanok, you need minimum amount of 600,000,000₩on for bungalow 5type only..

@pegan farm I can agree that islamism is bad, only because it is what radical ideological fanatics are doing by forcing and harming other people. Not what normal human beings, including muslims, are doing. But I don’t understand what that has to do with mosques? It’s not like you have to visit them. And I cannot agree with an anti multicultural lifestyle. Because without it I would have never been able to discover my love for so many aspects of the Korean culture. Preserving history, keeping records to display, and keeping traditions that are distinct for a certain population is wonderful snd soo important! Because variety and uniqueness are great. But since the beginning of human existence, exchanging knowledge, cultures and influencing each other has always happened. No country today would be able to exist the way they are now without it. Even Korea hasn’t always been just one country. And isn’t it fascinating how often neighboring countries have been inspired by korean ideas and made a new thing out of it? Or vice versa, how Korea has been inspired by ideas of other places and made their own unique version of it? I think that what’s happening today is no different. No matter how many influences from other cultures may come to Korea, Korea will always adapt it into something uniquely their own. Same for all other cultures. Because every country has different living conditions to adapt to. And hello? We are no longer in the colonial era! Invasions used to happen a lot around the world in premodern era. Every bit of South, Middle and North America has been born from Europeans invading the local societies, forcing them into labour, oppressing their culture and wiping out entirely an enormous variety of cultures. And that is tragic. Equally as tragic were all the times the Korean Peninsula had been invaded. Both are inexcusable and cannot ever be undone. And I very much condemn nations that try to pretend like they were not responsible for their crimes. But there is no way that will repeat today. The people who did that are mostly not even alive anymore. I am German. But I wasn’t even born yet when the war happened and no way would I ever wanna conquer the whole world like the nazi regime did.

I think living in a Hanok also cleared their son's skin...and I agree with the monk who think Ondol is the heart of the Hanok...plus I would all the monks there for their prayers to ensure my Ondol was constructed correctly...I could never make out what the flooring was in a Hanok...until they said red clayplaster...even with the doors open summer is awful due to the humity...

I’m wanting to build a hanok in America. Specifically I live in Missouri. Does anyone have advice for how to go about it? I’m having a hard time finding anyone that builds these. If I were to build it myself(I have a background in construction, mostly drywall but I have learned a lot by working around others) I can’t seem to find the roof tiles for sale anywhere. It will be modern, stucco on the exterior, probably drywall on the interior(where it’s needed). If anyone has any advice or information, please let me know! Thanks

Ondo is NOT "the world's only floor heating system" The Romans had the hypocaust, and a similar system is used in various places wh cold winters. The acronym UFHC is well-established worldwide. For example, my "summerhouse" in London has a system of pipes in the concrete floor that hooks up to the combi-boiler for the house, and was put together using standard, readily-available components.
