Hello everybody!
Some of my readers have already contacted me about my global cooking show and invited me to their homes to cook. ooh whoo! Exciting!
I’m still in the planning stage for the show. I’m going to post details soon and let you know how to join it, but one thing I can tell you is that filming will probably start in September or October when everyone has finished their summer vacations.
I will travel around the world and cook with my viewers. I pitched this idea to YouTube in March for the NextUp program, and they chose me to join the program. Being chosen as one of the 25 YouTube Nextup creators and joining the creators’ camp at Google has been the most fascinating experience that has happened to me so far this year!
But this year hasn’t finished yet. I’ll have more fascinating and exciting experiences when I meet as many my readers and my YouTube audience as I can, all around the world!
But please help me choose a name for this show. Here are some ideas so far. Do you have any other creative names?
- Maangchi’s Global Cooking Show?
- Planet Maangchi?
- Maangchi’s Travel Cooking Show?
- Maangchi, Gabsida! (Gabsida 갑시다 means “let’s go” in English)
In my experience, the more people who are brainstorming ideas, the better.
If you have a good idea for a name, please write it in the comments. If you like one of my ideas above, or one of someone else’s idea, write a comment about it: “I like xxxxxx’s suggestion!”
안녕하세요?
I really like “Maangchi, Gabsida!”
But also as I was reading the blog… I thought of some suggestions.
“Maangchi’s World” / “Maangchi-ui Segye”
“Maangchi Mingles”
“Maangchi on the Move”
“Cooking Korean: With Maangchi”
“Korean Cookin’: With Maangchi”
“Miles with Maanghi”
“만국의 망치” xDDD ?? Would that even be right?
Those were just a few of my ideas. xD
MaangchiTime =D
“Cooking with Maangchi & Friends”
“Around the World with Maangchi”
:)
Maangchi, Gabsida is perfect. It is a perfct example of everyday life on the fly. Yeh, Gabsida! Bally! LOL.
Maangchi’s Daebak Hansik?
If you ever come to MN, come stay with me!
What about ” munching with maangchi” or “maangchi goes global” ?
“Korean Seoul” as in “Soul Food” of the U.S.A.
I have prepared most of the recipes from your three cookbooks. They are superb!
I also have lost a great deal of weight while enjoying the flavors and textures of Korean Cuisine.
Keep up your marvelous work.

I LOVE Maangchi, Gabsida!
because it’s simple and it’s of course Korean dish cooking show.
More over people will be more interested in knowing simple Korean Language.
Fighting!!
Maangchi, Gabsida!
Hey.. What about ” Here comes Maangchi!” or ” Maangchi around the world!”?
I’m so excited!!!! Can’t wait to watch your cook show!
Haha I like that one, “Here comes Maangchi!”
How abt “Cook & Eat With Maangchi Around The World?” “Maangchi Around The World”? “Globally Maangchi”?
“Eating Korean With Maangchi”
Can’t wait for your new show!! How about:
Maangchi’s Everyday Korean Cooking
Maangchi on the Go Korean Cooking
Cooking and Visiting with Maangchi
So happy for you!!!! Fighting!!!
Aloha, Paulett
Hi Maangchi!
Congrats on the YouTube gig! How about “Maangchi: On the Go!” ? You could close each episode with “Enjoy my recipe, gotta go!”
How about “Make it Korean with Maangchi!”
Hello Maangchi
How about Maangchi’s Menu?
I like Maangchi Gabsida! I would love to have you over to my house in Minnesota! I’m an adopted Korean and didn’t get to have anyone teach me how to cook Korean food. I didn’t even know about Kimchee until I was in college! I love cooking, so I’ve been exploring your website and finding so much inspiration to teach myself how to cook Korean food. I now have a daughter and am trying to get her starting loving Korean food at a young age, as well as trying to get my husband to try new things. :) So far so good! Good luck to you in your show!
Yay for Maangchis new show! How about…
“Cooking with Maangchi”
or
“Maangchi in Your Home”
Much Love
Also if you are in the South West area, I would love to have you stop by.
All of the names are great!
How about “Maangchi’s Magic” ?
It has to have “Maangchi’ as the first word since that is how we all know you. And gabshida /kapshida would be the last word in a Korean sentence since Korean is a verb-final language. And it needs to be short & sweet. So my vote is Maangchi Gapshida. And like most everyone else, I’d love to open my kitchen to you if you are in Northern California. I love your welcoming, casual approach to cooking (and life). I’m excited for your show, congratulations~!
How about “Traveling SEOUL”?
I really like these names, they all mention that Maangchi is about Korean cuisine/cooking which i think is AS important as being cathcy:
1. “A Taste of Korea with Maangchi, Gapsida!”
or
2. “Gapsida! A Taste of Korea with Maangchi!”
or
3. “Taste Korea with Maangchi.. Gapsida!”
I’m so proud of you Maangchi, especially as a fellow Korean, for introducing the world to Korean cuisine! You are great =)
How about “Cooking Around the World with Maangchi” ?
I like the last one too, but the other way around – Gabsida, Maangchi!
Maangchi, congrats for getting chosen as one of the youtube nxtup!! :)
I like “Maangchi gabsida!”
my other suggestion would be:
“around the world’s kitchen with maangchi” (is it too lengthy?then cut off the kitchen word :p)
or
“Maangchi on the go!”
will you visit Melbourne, Australia?? lolz you’re always welcome to my kitchen!!
” Cooking Korean Classic Food with Maangchi” OR
“A Taste of Korea with Maangchi” These are some Ideas .
Maangchi Making Munchies
I like “Maangchi Gapsida!” too. It covers the travel aspect of the show and anyone who knows of you will know that you love to cook. Put that together and you have a show about you traveling and cooking.
How about “Maangchi Katchi Gapsida! (같이 갑시다=let’s go together)” I think this would help to let audience know that you aren’t just cooking in other people’s homes, but you’re cooking with them (laughing, joking around, creating good food, and spreading the love for korean food and culture). Those who watch the show will feel a deeper connection to you and the food by seeing how you don’t have to be a professional chef (or some superstar) to make good, meaningful food. Well, that’s just my thought. Hope you succeed and I’ll be rooting for you! MAANGCHI HWAITING ^__^
My suggestion would be: From Maangchi’s Kitchen To Yours
Great idea for a show!
My idea is “Emily’s home kitchen tour”
My favorite is also Maangchi Gapsida! Other ideas:
Maangchi Goes Global
Gapsida! Maangchi Takes Off!
Around the World in 80 Meals
i´m like Maangchi, Gabsida! it´s a good idea, and sound really good!!! XD
This is going to be an awesome show, I’m excited! You’ve already been inexpressibly helpful to me in my Korean cooking ventures.
My favorite of your ideas is Maangchi, Gabsida!
How about… Maangchi and Friends’ Han-good Eats (playing off the word 한국)
Haha, that’s the best I can come up with this early in the morning. Yours are probably better.
Maangchi Mania!!! :)
I like this……….Maangchi Mania…….kool….spicy…..:)
I really like the last one you suggested, Maangchi, Gabsida! It is short, catchy, and helps teach people a little Korean, too! I will try to pop back later and see if I have any ideas–but if you want, please come to my kitchen in Saudi Arabia! I just moved here from Washington DC, and one of the first things I made in my new kitchen was your mak kimchi (but there is no napa cabbage, so it isn’t as good). Right now I have soybeans soaking for kongjang. I know I should learn how to cook the local cuisine, but I love your recipes too much!
Hi Kenneth, if U ever find yourself in Dubai…let me know! I just made my cabbage (napa) kimchi yesterday! How interesting to read your blog…I’m quite new to Maangchi’s website but already I am a fan! I made a red bean paste hoddeok for my children yesterday, it was yummy! My 22 month old son wanted more, more!
I like Maangchi Korean Cooking, Gabsida!
