It's pretty good bang for your buck. I'm going to be on a sugar high after tonight. My hands are numb. What the heck? Merry Christmas! I'm at the Christmas Market in Busan. I've seen it all over social media, so I'm excited to be here and experience it for myself. I'm pretty hungry, so let's go check out the food and drink stands first. Muld wine is a must at Christmas markets. It's steaming hot. I have to blow on it to cool it off. Mmm, so good. They have a cinnamon stick and a slice of orange in it. Oh, are you giving samples? Thank you. Mmm, that's so good. This is your Christmas special? Actually, I've been to your shop before.
Oh really?
Yeah, I really like it. I'm being so indecisive. I can't make up my mind about what to eat. There's just so much good food here. This is like a little sampler platter. I think I'm going to get this because it's great for indecisive people. You can try a little bit of everything. Thank you. Let's go. I feel like I'm in the lunch line at at school with my tray. It's like collecting Pokémon. Mission complete! Let's go eat this before it gets cold. Let's see if we can find a seat. There's so many people here. Let's try the sausage first. I feel like it's getting cold. Mmm, they even have sauerkraut. I'm impressed. Mmm. Mmm. It reminds me of German Christmas markets. I've never been to a German Christmas market, but that's what I imagine they'd serve there. I got Mapadubu noodles. This is a first for me. Mmm. Very delicious. I'll never go back to eating this with rice. It's so good with noodles. Wow, I think we did pretty good. We finished almost everything. I really liked this platter because I got to try a variety of different foods. It was ₩36,000 Korean won, but you get a lot of food, so it's pretty good bang for your buck. The sun is setting and it's getting a bit chilly, so I'm going to head inside for a little bit to take a break and warm up. My hands are numb. Let's brave the cold for some hot chocolate. Come on, let's try the marshmallow first. Mm. I love toasted marshmallow. I feel like it's going to get on my nose. Woo, that is rich. I'm going to be on a sugar high after tonight. Try sip. It's fruit, so it's healthy, right? Chocolate-covered strawberries like this are so popular everywhere these days. She was so generous with the peanut butter too. Wow, so good. So messy but really delicious. I'm full. Michigensara miyo. The calories don't count on Christmas. Santa's here, but I didn't see him put any presents under the tree for me. He just sprayed snow in my face. What the heck? Winter water bomb. Santa's water bomb. I love seeing the trees all lit up at night. It reminds me of putting up my Christmas tree at home with my mom. It's one of my favorite Christmas traditions every year. How do they get the ornaments on the tree way up at the top? There's people toasting marshmallows over a fire. I want to do it, but I've had too much sugar today. It's time for some Christmas shopping. Who needs Santa when I've got the cameraman, right? He's ignoring me. This is the best one. Oh, that's a really cool gift, actually. I love E.T. I want this one, Santa, if you're listening. E.T. phone home. It's kind of cool. I've never seen something like that before. Okay, just one or two? I haven't bought something nice for myself like this for a long time. It's Christmas. It's just so unique. I can't pass it up. The elves were working hard in their workshop and they made me a nice gift. I'm pretty worn out. I'm coming down from my sugar high, so it's time to go home. Let's get out of here. It's getting more and more packed.
Maybe I'm getting old because that Christmas market completely exhausted me. It put me in the Christmas spirit though, so now I'm watching a Christmas movie. I'm watching The Grinch, which is my all-time favorite Christmas movie, but I've never seen the animated version before, so it's my first time watching that. I really recommend watching The Grinch movie starring Jim Carrey. It's fantastic. Thanks for watching and happy holidays. Bye!
