We talk about life in Korea as Korean Americansโwhere culture, identity, and expectations donโt always line up. From living near a U.S. military base to raising a family in Korea, appearing on Korean TV, creating content, and navigating marriage, fatherhood, social issues, and Korean pop culture, we share honest conversations from the in-between. Real talk. Lived experience. Almost Korean.

๐๏ธ Chipotle in Korea?! Korean Americans Talk Food, Childhood & Growing Up Between Two Cultures | Almost Korean Podcast - Episode 21 (Part 1)
In this episode of Almost Korean Podcast, Tae and Gibson talk about their love of food, the arrival of Chipotle in Korea, and the childhood foods and memories that shaped them as Korean Americans.
From discovering Chipotle in America to wondering how Koreans will react to building their own burrito bowls, the conversation eventually turns into a trip down memory laneโgrowing up eating Korean street food, tteokbokki, gimbap, bungeoppang, fish cakes, ppeongtwigi and other childhood favorites.
They also compare food culture in Korea and America, including why Korean street food was such a big part of their childhood, what it was like coming back to the U.S., American fast food, childhood comfort foods, Korean side dishes, and the foods they loved (and hated) growing up.
If you grew up Korean Americanโor grew up between Korean and American cultureโthis episode might bring back some familiar food memories.

What We LOVE & HATE About Living in Korea ๐ฐ๐ท | Korean American Perspective | Ep. 18
What do two Korean Americans living in Korea actually loveโand NOT loveโabout life in Korea?
In this episode of Almost Korean Podcast, Tae and Gibson break down the everyday things that make living in Korea great, frustrating, convenient, and sometimes just plain confusing.
They talk about the affordability of eating out, tipping culture, food delivery, digital convenience, public transportation, parking, Korean hotels, bathrooms, driving, taxi drivers, exercise culture, and social interactions in Korea.
Some things make life in Korea incredibly convenient. Others leave them asking, "Why does Korea do it this way?" ๐
It's an honest conversation about the pros and cons of living in Korea from the perspective of two Korean Americans who have experience with both Korean and American culture.

What does masculinity look like for Korean and Asian American men today?
In Almost Korean Ep. 16, Tae and Gibson continue their conversation about Asian masculinity, discussing Korean beauty standards, men's skincare, facial hair, cosmetic procedures, emotional expression, fatherhood, and raising the next generation.
They also explore changing ideas of masculinity, Asian representation in media and social media, and why confidence doesn't have to mean being the loudest or most dominant person in the room.

What does it mean to be Korean American but not feel completely Korean or American?
Welcome to the very first episode of the Almost Korean Podcast! ๐ฐ๐ท๐บ๐ธ
Tae and Gibson introduce themselves and explain the story behind the name Almost Korean. Both are Korean Americans who grew up in the United States after spending part of their childhood in Korea, and they share what it's like to live between two cultures.
They talk about Korean American identity, reverse culture shock, racism and cultural misunderstandings, moving back to Korea as adults, and what it's like living near a U.S. military base while experiencing both Korean and American culture every day.
This pilot episode sets the stage for future conversations about Korea, America, culture, identity, food, family, relationships, and everything in between.
