Living in Korea--How to Use Korean Chopsticks

Korean chopsticks are a little different than Japanese or Chinese chopsticks, but the basic technique is the same. This is how I use them.

Your way is not right way to use Korean chopstics.

@OngDalSam This is just how I use them and it's worked for everyone I've showed thus far. Sorry that it may not be the 'correct' way to use them, but it's how it works for me.

I have a problem. I can hold the chopsticks properly but i can't move them.

[subwalady]

@NaeSarangJonghyun12 It does take practice. Mostly, the movement comes from your middle finger.  Keep trying, you'll get it.

I only speak a little Korean. I knew enough to get around and live day-to-day life, but now that I'm back in the States I find that I'm losing it rapidly.

I was just meeting lot of friends and I learned that automatically... never watched tutorial(till this time :D) and it's just about time... sooner or later it will come...

i love it and sometimes my friends thinks i come from white family living in korea :D

[OngDalSam]

@subwalady I know. But you have 'incorrect' way and say "Really Difficult". Don't set the chopstick between ring finger(4th finger) and little finger(5th finger). Just set the chopstick on ring finger (4th finger). Believe me, you can pick a red bean quickly with iron chopsticks than other koreans surronding you. Kiss from DaeGu~

Omfg, I love you now.

I was getting so frustrated with the other videos because they didn't seem to be describing it very well, BUT AFTER THIS VIDEO. WOOO! I can do it!:D

But I did it with pens LOL. I can't find ANY place whatsoever in Leicester - England which sells chopsticks? D:

Woah! You lived in Korea? Was it nice?:) I thought Korea was very strict on immigrants?
