Korean Transcript & English Translation

์–ผ๋งˆ ์ „์— ์ค‘๊ตญ ๊ด‘์ €์šฐ์— ๋‹ค๋…€์™”์Šต๋‹ˆ๋‹ค.

I recently visited Guangzhou, China.

I flew with Spring Airlines, but the turbulence was so bad that I got really motion sick.

I just arrived in Guangzhou, and I'm at Guangzhou Airport right now. I really like it here.

While going through immigration, I even found a translation device.

Since there are many foreigners who don't speak Chinese, I think it was made to help people who might have trouble during the immigration process.

The airport was really clean and very modern. Honestly, I was impressed.

I took a DiDi from the airport to my hotel, and it was really easy to find the pickup point.

I intentionally stayed in a local neighborhood rather than near tourist attractions.

I want to show you the real everyday life of Guangzhou, not just the typical tourist spots.

์ผ๋‹จ ์•„์นจ ๋จน์„ ๊ณณ๋ถ€ํ„ฐ ์ข€ ์ฐพ์•„๋ณผ๊ฒŒ์š”.

First, let's find somewhere to have breakfast.

Street barbershops are something you can easily see in Southeast Asia too, so it wasn't that surprising to me.

๊ธฐํ›„๊ฐ€ ๋น„์Šทํ•ด์„œ์ธ์ง€ ๋™๋‚จ์•„์—์„œ ๋ณด๋˜ ์ต์ˆ™ํ•œ ์ฑ„์†Œ๋“ค์ด ์ •๋ง ๋งŽ์•˜์–ด์š”.

Maybe because the climate is similar, I saw many familiar vegetables that I usually see in Southeast Asia.

ํ˜น์‹œ ์ด๊ฑฐ ์•„์‹œ๋Š” ๋ถ„ ๊ณ„์„ธ์š”?

Does anyone know what this is?

์ค‘๊ตญ์—์„œ๋„ ๊ทธ๋ ‡๊ณ  ๋‹ค๋ฅธ ๋‚˜๋ผ ์ฐจ์ด๋‚˜ํƒ€์šด์— ๊ฐ€๋ฉด ๊ผญ ์ด ์Œ๋ฃŒ๋ฅผ ํŒ”๋”๋ผ๊ณ ์š”.

I see this drink in China, and also in Chinatowns around the world.

It's like a very strong herbal tea, and the taste reminds me a bit of Korean herbal medicine.

I always dilute it with water before drinking it. I honestly can't drink it straight.

This place in Guangzhou sells used electronics, but there was so much cigarette smoke that I had to wear a mask.

๊ทธ๋ƒฅ ๋žœ๋ค์œผ๋กœ ์ƒ๊ฐ€ ๊ฑด๋ฌผ์— ๋“ค์–ด๊ฐ€ ๋ดค๋Š”๋ฐ ์•„์ด๋“ค ์ž๋™์ฐจ๋ฅผ ํŒŒ๋Š” ๊ฒƒ ๊ฐ™๋”๋ผ๊ณ ์š”. ์Šค์ผ€์ผ์ด ๊ฝค ํฌ์ฃ .

I randomly walked into a shopping building, and it looked like they sold kids' ride-on cars. The scale was pretty impressive.

์˜ˆ์ „์— ํ™์ฝฉ์—์„œ๋„ ํ•ด๋ดค๋Š”๋ฐ์š”.

I tried this before in Hong Kong too.

์ค‘๊ตญ ๊ด‘๋™ ์ง€์—ญ์—์„œ๋Š” ์Œ์‹ ๋จน๊ธฐ ์ „์— ๋œจ๊ฑฐ์šด ์ฐจ๋กœ ๊ทธ๋ฆ‡์„ ์”ป์ž–์•„์š”.

In Guangdong, China, people wash their bowls with hot tea before eating.

I'm not sure if this is actually the correct way, but I just copied what everyone else was doing.

I couldn't capture this on camera, but when I visited, there were so many dandelion seeds floating through the air.

When I was little, I heard that if they got into your eyes, you could get an eye infection. I don't know if people still say that these days though.

์—ฌ๊ธฐ ์ง„์งœ ๊ด‘์ €์šฐ์—์„œ ๊ฐ€์žฅ ์ข‹์•˜๋˜ ์‹์‚ฌ์˜€์–ด์š”.

This was honestly the best meal I had in Guangzhou.

It was just a simple fish porridge, but it was so comforting, warm, and delicious.

์˜ˆ์ „์— ์ œ๊ฐ€ ๋ฒ ํŠธ๋‚จ ํ˜ธ์น˜๋ฏผ์˜ ์ฐจ์ด๋‚˜ํƒ€์šด์„ ๋ณด์—ฌ๋“œ๋ฆฐ ์  ์žˆ์ž–์•„์š”.

I once showed you Chinatown in Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnam.

์‚ฌ์‹ค ์ด๋ฒˆ ๊ด‘์ €์šฐ ์—ฌํ–‰์„ ํ†ตํ•ด์„œ ๋ฒ ํŠธ๋‚จ์ด ๊ด‘๋‘ฅ ์ง€์—ญ์˜ ์˜ํ–ฅ์„ ์–ผ๋งˆ๋‚˜ ๋งŽ์ด ๋ฐ›์•˜๋Š”์ง€ ์ƒˆ์‚ผ ๊นจ๋‹ฌ์•˜์–ด์š”.

Through this trip to Guangzhou, I realized how much Vietnam has been influenced by the Guangdong region.

์Œ์‹๋„ ์ •๋ง ๋น„์Šทํ•˜๊ณ  ์‹๋‹น์ด๋‚˜ ๊ฐ€๊ฒŒ ๊ตฌ์กฐ, ์ธํ…Œ๋ฆฌ์–ด๊นŒ์ง€ ๋ฒ ํŠธ๋‚จ์ด๋ž‘ ๋„ˆ๋ฌด ๋‹ฎ์•„ ์žˆ์—ˆ๊ฑฐ๋“ ์š”.

The food was very similar, and even the layouts and interiors of restaurants and shops looked so much like Vietnam.

Honestly, if someone told me this was District 5 in Ho Chi Minh City, I wouldn't find it strange at all.

๊ด‘์ €์šฐ๋Š” ์‚ฌ์‹ค ์„ธ๊ณ„ ์ตœ๋Œ€ ๊ทœ๋ชจ์— ์†Œ์‹ฑ ์‹œ์žฅ์ด ์žˆ๋Š” ๊ณณ์ด์ž–์•„์š”.

Guangzhou is actually home to one of the world's largest sourcing markets.

When I visited, the Canton Fair was also happening.

Of course, I'm not working in sourcing, but you never know what the future holds, right?

์–ธ์  ๊ฐ€ ์„ธ๊ณ„ ์ตœ๋Œ€ ๊ทœ๋ชจ์˜ ๋ฌด์—ญ ๋ฐ•๋žŒํšŒ ์บ”ํ†ค ํŽ˜์–ด๋ฅผ ํ•œ๋ฒˆ ๊ฐ€๋ณด๊ณ  ์‹ถ์—ˆ๋Š”๋ฐ ์•„๋ฌด๋‚˜ ๋“ค์–ด๊ฐˆ ์ˆ˜ ์žˆ๋Š” ๊ณณ์€ ์•„๋‹ˆ๋”๋ผ๊ณ ์š”.

Someday, I would love to visit the Canton Fair, one of the world's largest trade fairs, but it turns out it's not a place anyone can simply enter.

ํ•œ๊ตญ์—์„œ๋„ ๊ทธ ๋ฐ•๋žŒํšŒ์— ๊ฐ€๋ ค๊ณ  1๋…„์”ฉ ๊ณต๋ถ€ํ•˜๊ณ  ์ค€๋น„ํ•˜์‹œ๋Š” ๋ถ„๋“ค๋„ ๊ณ„์‹œ๋”๋ผ๊ณ ์š”.

Even in Korea, there are people who spend a year studying and preparing just to attend this fair.

์ด๋ฒˆ์—๋Š” ์•„์‰ฝ๊ฒŒ๋„ ๋ชป ๊ฐ€๋ดค์ง€๋งŒ ๋‹ค์Œ์—๋Š” ์ข‹์€ ๊ธฐํšŒ๊ฐ€ ์ƒ๊ฒจ์„œ ์ค‘๊ตญ์˜ ๊ฑฐ๋Œ€ํ•œ ์‹œ์žฅ์„ ์ง์ ‘ ๋ณผ ์ˆ˜ ์žˆ์œผ๋ฉด ์ข‹๊ฒ ๋‹ค๋Š” ์ƒ๊ฐ์ด ๋“ค์—ˆ์–ด์š”.

Unfortunately, I couldn't go this time, but I hope I get a chance someday to see China's huge market with my own eyes.

I'm going to move on to my next city now. Bye for now.
