Maangchi’s letter
Hi,xxx,
You made my day!
It’s Labor Day here in Canada, so I did not go to work.
Actually my real job has nothing to do with cooking, so I hope your good wish gives me a chance to seek a totally different career from what I am doing now. : ) I love my current job, too.
Cooking and tasting some good food is my lifetime hobby and I love to cook and eat someone else’s food from a different culture.
When I started my cooking video on YouTube, I thought only non-Koreans would be interested. But over time, I realize that those with Korean backgrounds such as half Koreans or second generation Koreans are more interested in my cooking videos. They give me feedback through e-mail and comments everyday.
Responding to comments or emails takes some time, but I’m happy to interact with people especially who have the same hobby. So I barely have free time to manage between my work and cooking video work.
Selecting dishes for videos is decided by my mood and people’s requests. So far, more than 20 different kinds of dishes have been requested. I usually make a list.
When I travel to a foreign country, what I really want to do is to taste their local food, so I would like to post something that Koreans eat on a regular basis.
I like Korean food, but never think it is the best in the world. I love all kinds of food from different ethnic groups.
