Episode 80: Yes, Uh, Jin, Jee (Taiwan)

Korean. American. Podcast

This week Jun and Daniel discuss Daniel's recent family trip to Taiwan for the holidays. Listen as Daniel shares his observations and experiences visiting Taipei and surrounding areas, while Jun offers his commentary as someone who has visited multiple times before. From weather to food to cultural influences from both Japan and China, our hosts explore what makes Taiwan unique while drawing comparisons to Korea and America. They discuss everything from the prevalence of English to toilets, and bubble tea to building design. What is the de facto travel itinerary for Koreans visiting Taipei and its surrounding suburbs? What does humidity feel like when it isn’t hot? What animal seems to be trending in popularity in Taiwan? What Korean things were Daniel surprised to find in Taiwan? What unlikely food item seemed to appear unexpectedly throughout the trip? What were some of Daniel’s most memorable meals?
If you're interested in any of these questions, tune in to hear Daniel and Jun discuss all this and more! Also in this episode, Daniel reflects on seeing a familiar face in a totally different context, Jun reveals a surprising personal fact, and both hosts bond over their love for Taiwan's culture, food, and people.
