It’s all about brand names of European and American goods (that are made in China lol) and not of Korean made products. I don’t know if it’s a a lack of pride or just trying to pretend to be old money European. Either way, I’ve often found it to be extremely shallow and annoying.

His pride is heartwarming and genuine. This video made me feel good. May he live long and prosper.

Beautiful piece. It makes me feel proud of my Korean heritage. I love that he's sweating buckets and complaining about how physically demanding the work is while expressing his love and passion for his work... and then his joyous delight at the finished onggi at the end is like gold dust on top. So many emotions, such a journey in a 13.5 minute story -- glorious!

I saw a documentary about pottery to store food & the traditional Korean pot like this is the best kind to preserve food for fermentation needs. & Watching how it's made of, really satisfying especially when the maker is a passionate & friendly one like this man.

ok when the dude made homemade glaze, that took this video to the next level. The homemade glaze has a natural look that I don't think you can get from store-bought glaze. When it comes out of the kiln you see it, just totally gorgeous.

This guy is a born teacher. The govt should help him start a school, and pass on this beautiful art! 💜

When my father was stationed in South Korea back in the 90s, he told us about driving into Seoul and every house along the road would have 2-3 of these massive pots out along one of the walls. The part about the special glaze was really fascinating.

Haha now Korean use electronic kimchi refrigerator at home..which has similar functions of onggi . . . ( helps to keep the same temperature and prolong freshness etc..) However .. certainly kimchi inside onggi should be more fresh and tasty

This is Master craftsmanship. It saddens me deeply that craftsmanship of this caliber existed in the world of old and is slowly dying away.

@@FieryRedDonkeyOfHell You're right, it is just a craft, but there is something special about putting in the work to create something like this by hand, and to many it would be sad if a tradition that has been carried on for hundreds of years were to vanish, never again to be appreciated. Preserving culture is important so that humanity doesn't become homogenous.

@Salty Child Well, i presume it’s like losing a part of what makes your country unique? It’s kind of losing generations of your ancestors’ efforts, knowledge and emotions. Sure, can be considered as inefficient, but many things that we do that are unnecessary hold immense value to what we are and gives a sense of belonging. Culture, especially arts, expresses what we are as people. That’s what I think lol

@@machinismus I've been thinking about your reply, and I think I've figured out why I'm so indifferent to the disappearance of this craft, as well as other crafts. It's because I'm biased to the crafts to which I have more exposure. I used to be really into music. If a certain music genre that I enjoyed suddenly disappeared one day, then I'd feel some level of disappointment. The world would have lost a small piece of "goodness," and regardless of how big that piece is, it's undeniable that the world lost something. I guess I was too self-centered to realize that each craft is of equal value and my exposure to that craft has no bearing on its value. On another note, I do feel like the world is heading toward cultural homogeneity. Oddly enough though, I feel like humankind will still thrive and be happy in such a society, which is why I'm not too worried about it.

Korea is probably the world's most poetic nation; everything has a meaning, everything is a lesson. It makes sense now as to why this man is an intangible cultural asset. I would love to see this video reach young people all over Korea to inspire them to take up Jin-gyu's craft.

It's awesome to see how passionate he is whilst working and the dedication he puts into his craft

Communicates with clay, understands nature/time so profoundly, gots some jokes (8:30). This man is a national treasure for real.

The passion in his voice when he talks about his craft and the cycle of soil and clay makes me so happy

12:46 his reaction after he saw the finish product was priceless💖

He doesn't see his work as a chore, but a happiness. This is awesome the spirit he puts into his work.

Man, I didn't know there's so much physical labor involved in making an onggi. All the other pottery makers I've seen basically sit at the wheel and throw! Respect!

It's the same process for any pottery, its just bigger for these large pots.

They guy radiates positive energy, I love it

His passion for making onggi is inspiring and I hope he’s able to pass this beautiful tradition down.

It’s really beautiful to see a man so dedicated to his craft and so committed to preserving its traditional history. His joy at seeing the finished onggi is infectious!

I deeply hope some young artists begin apprenticing with him. If I lived in Korea I'd be there.

I admire how the Asian culture has a high amount of discipline with it. I'm in absolute awe!

What a humble and lovely guy. I hope he finds an apprentice or two whom can take over once he has to stop.

He is truly an artist and he works so hard at his craft. I love when he pulls the finished onggi out of the kiln. It's beautiful and he's so excited! And his perspective on it coming from the soil and returning to the soil is lovely.

He's proud of his craft and he should be, nothing can replace the love and sweat put into something like this, and nothing from a factory can begin to compare to something handmade, each is unique and special in its own way. People are really missing out by not pursuing such a craft.

He is an artist and a dedicated skilled hard worker- these are beautiful. I would love to have purchased one of these when I was in Korea.

I admire him not for making cool pots but for never smashing his own foot with thor's hammer.

An amazing art form that requires a skilled artesian with the dedication, appreciation and the abiding desire to perpetuate a centuries old cultural marvel. Hopefully, it will not die out.

What a fascinating man! His 'country' philosophy has such a 'ring (sound) of truth' about it! I am actually devastated that I will never be able to meet this man. He has such a feel of friendliness about him that it is easy to believe that you could be great friends with him with very little effort. You just automatically want to apprentice yourself to him. He should be declared a "National Treasure".

Honestly I've never been so moved by the way a man holds a pot before. I shed a tear at the love and pride he has for his work.

A real craftsman, with great passion for his trade. Very intresting to watch, thank you

Gosh I love watching people who are passionate about something talk about the thing they're passionate about

This is without a doubt TALENT. Crazy man. His Father taught him well.

It makes me sad to think there are only 10 like Jin-Gyu today.

This man is a master. The way in which he speaks about his craft is inspirational. His excitement when that was finished was genuine and amazing.

I vote for this guy, and really love him for what he does. These cosmopolitan days of digital trends and order-everything-to-your-door, people no longer remember the huge satisfaction of actually MAKING something start-to-end. They completely forget the wisdom that is in the hands and the almost-ritualistic movement of the professional hands. The old ways are all but gone - and machine-made everything quickly supplants the hand-made. But those who remember... they know. They know the difference. The meeting of mind and matter, nature and skill, human and soil. I'd really like to taste kimchi prepared in one of his beautiful vessels.

This is the first time that I watched an entire video with a smile in my face! The guy here really showed his art! You can see it from his eyes that hes proud of what he do! Its like telling his life story but about a handmade jar!

This is fascinating! Such skill, strength & quality - a true craftsman! Can we purchase this mans work? Every man is worthy of his labor!!!!

That was amazing to hear him speak about his craft with such humility and passion. Awesome!

A man truly blessed, who shares his blessing with others, who bless him with their respect, and round and round it goes. Wonderful👏👏👏👏👍👍👍👍👍

He made this all very easy to grasp and get into the proper mindset. I love how it makes him happy.

Man those are beautiful. He puts his heart and soul into each one of those he makes

So beautifully done 💞 I enjoyed the background story from the mountains to the ground 🙌 I pray this tradition continues 🙏❣

What a beautiful craftsman. So proud of what he is doing. I wish him all the best for the future.

Can you imagine being from a culture of old dying traditions and the only way you can see fit on how to carry it forward is to sacrifice your life for the love of these traditional crafts. It's highly respectable. By sacrifice, I really do mean his life.. not in death but sacrificing other of life's joys in order to maintain master traditions.

incredible stuff again Eater. Love the Handmade series
