We are looking at a samdak kimbap gochujang sauce like a goger. It's a winner ding ding ding very very very good
What's going on everybody?
We are here at the natural products expo west 2022 and we got invited by the korean agro trade center to come here and show you
The hottest and trendiest food and health products coming out of south korea this year
So whether you're a consumer or you're a business
You're about to be excited because some of this stuff is in the u.s market and some of it isn't
I'm excited to see the new trends. Let's go
So
Starting off we got the sama group
They are bringing authentic korean sauces and authentic korean frozen foods to the states
Some of the products are already in costco. Let's go talk to minko. Could you tell us real quickly about what products you guys have?
These products are making it easy to get that authentic taste
At home hang chef up here. They have the sauce that you can use for the korean chicken wings kfc
Everybody loves that but now these are their new products
They kind of have tofu sauces and they have like the jajangmyeon sauce
And these are really for your rice dishes love korean food
Now you can get authentic delicious versions frozen in your freezer. You know, it's late night. You got a craving boom
Yo, that's really good, yo, they did a hell of a job man frozen korean food is on another level
This is the advancement. This literally does taste like something i've had at the restaurant or at least korean barbecue sides kimchi fried rice
I know for a lot of people. It's like their favorite korean snack
Wow, i'm telling you guys in 2022 these frozen korean products are getting very very very good
I think it's cool because when you travel to asia
A lot of the time you go to the 7-elevens and you're like, oh my gosh
This food is so good, even though it's like to go like frozen refrigerated food
but here they're bringing that quality straight out of the bag here in america, so
So as much as south korea is known for like the external beauty
They're also actually really focusing on the inner beauty now and there's this whole new health wave going on
So korean fermented herbal teas is really blowing up and this company here is doing some crazy things. This is korea bubble
Okay, okay, what is this tea supposed to help you do this is a property owner and property together you have a
The human and the dog can drink the same tea swing doggy tea for your dog
If you really love your dog, you want to keep them healthy?
Dave, I think we should get some of this for uh, nelson and mochi
So they can bond over tea think about it guys. You can toast with your puppy with the swing doggy doggy tea
Oh
Whoa, what am I tasting? What's in here?
Pumpkin and ginseng, that's great. Next up. We got the double layered ice rice cakes from jeju
And they actually it's a handmade and gluten-free and all ingredients are from jeju ingredients
Jeju is the most clean island in korea. Yeah. Okay. Yeah
So this is a special of jeju island only in jeju
From the cleanest island in korea jeju is that's it
This is it guys man, these are really really good. What's this brand called?
Oh my oh my come check out. Oh my oh my
All right. Next up. We got this gochujang sauce that hasn't yet made it to america, but it's about to hit the market here
It's not just regular gochujang. It's cho gochujang, which uses pineapple vinegar
So it's going to be a little bit sweeter and it has a little bit more of that bite
Oh, so do you think when miss k's secret enters the u.s market people are going to gravitate?
Well, I never thought I would just be eating gochujang on a tortilla chip
And it seems like you guys made it the density a lot more like sauce like right?
So it kind of looks like a hot sauce. All right, you guys this is miss k's secret cho gochujang
You know what it kind of reminds me of in the western cuisine like mango habanero became very popular
This reminds me of the more asian version. Did uh cho gochujang get pretty popular in korea?
Yeah, of course we use it as sushi or sashimi one of my favorite panchans
the anchovies
It's good. This new wave man. It's a winner ding ding ding the how you does not just mean k-pop
Obviously we have this already in h mart or any other korean asian markets that are really popular obviously
But this one is our new product where it's more this one is more drinkable smaller jelly pieces more texture
This one has actually fully jelly so it's more softer easier to open. Yeah like that. So what there's like a gogurt
But it'll be thicker than that. And when would you drink this? Well, it's very good for people on diet, right?
They want to lose weight, but they don't want to go starving like a light snack
Konjac jelly stick on the go when you need a snack and you want to be healthy
I like it
And it's actually easier to carry than a jelly cup too because you know
The cups like you can mash those and they leak and stuff. I'm energized. I'm ready to go
Wait, we have a couple different things. First is our organic line. This is like the visvita original
This is what we were known for. Okay, right. This is the one you see everywhere in every market, right?
But this is the organic line. Okay. Yeah. Yeah. Does the organic one taste different? Yes, it does
It's a little bit lighter. It's a little bit, you know, it's designed, you know for like people who are a little health conscious
This is less sugar content. It's made with like organic stevia. We also have this line. This is our costco only line
So see the premium you gotta be premium to go costco, you know, i'm saying
And then you guys have the chupa chups. These are
Sparkling waters based off of the lollipops. Yes, exactly
So it's a sparkling soda the base off the lollipops that is actually a brand new product that we're considering releasing
As an exclusive distributor here in the u.s
It's made in korea made in bottled in korea and then uh, it's brought over and so we're just
Is this big in south korea or
No, this is brand new. This is a brand new sparkling soda based off the lollipop made in korea
They're deciding still on whether they want to enter the american market never seen before and never tried on camera in the history of
the world chupa chups
strawberry and creams
popsicle based soda
You can see how creamy it is, bro. What are you talking about?
Hello, you guys know the deal good for your skin good for your body. It's nature's miracle plant
All organic
usd certified
When you want kind of a flavored drink, but you want to stay healthy. I think this is gonna be a good move
Oh, man, that tastes like a lot more than 40 calories. That's how you know, it's good
Guys, everybody loves sesame oil. I am a lover of sesame oil myself. I use it in so many different dishes
I'll pour it on my kimchi
But this is black sesame oil now a lot of people david are familiar with black sesame as a dessert item
Something that you would crush up put it in shaved ice or something, but this is the sesame oil version
There's restaurants in new york that are using this right now, dude
They got premium raw perilla oil if you guys know about the perilla leaf an amazing taste. It's so unique
I don't even know how to describe it. But perilla oil I could see this getting big straight from korea
We're a company from south korea and we created this brain supplement
It's a dietary supplement. It helps enhance your memory and also your immunity
So like the main ingredient is red ginseng
Which you know is good for men it helps you, you know gain strength and the we also have sub ingredients all made from asian herbs
All right
We are about to try a brain supplement that is not supposed to only make me stronger
But also increase my memory. It's called brain flag. All right, you guys here it is. Whoa
Yeah, no
No, no
I thought it was szechuan peppercorns for a second all natural ingredients taken from the earth there to make you stronger
Make you smarter denature bio labs. All right, so this is how you actually take the brain flex
We're going to shoot it into our mouths and then we're going to wash it down with water
And you don't remember everything from today
All right, you guys we're in front of eco road and they are selling an organic cheddar cheese from korea
What's special about this cheese?
Don't be surprised if in a few years everybody's only wants south korean cheese
Hey, it makes sense because you know, uh on a lot of like popular korean food dishes
They use cheese. So now they got korean cheese on korean food
Well, that's so soft. I could see that going really well on um,
Doc jim calby jim on your ramen
All right
Next up we have fine korean red ginseng and they have all different forms. They have a jelly form a tea form
They have a liquid form and this is just really really good for your health guys
I think korea what they're trying to do with ginseng is really really interesting because everybody's known of ginseng
But there's different types of ginsengs and now they're like trying to incorporate it into your life real easily for me
I always grew up with ginseng products, you know being asian, but the thing was like they were so old school
They didn't really have a modern application. It didn't really appeal to me
You know what they're doing here at fine ft is bringing it to the new modern generation g-pop ginseng pop
It's great to take the very old school kind of herbs that are known to be very very healthy
I've never had anything like this before. Honestly, this was super good
Probably one of the most delicious ginseng products ever had the ginseng flavor is maybe like at about 35 40 percent
I like it that chewable is straight up ginseng very ginsengy, but I do feel
Very healthy while eating it
Yeah, definitely
i'm focused
I'm locked in andrew. You're looking at 2 000 milligrams of premium vitamin c. Whoo going in my water
from who wants
Food yints guys. They this is a health brand and they're doing all types of things
Obviously, they got ginseng jelly. They got pomegranate juice. They have pumpkin juice right here everything that's for your health
Oh, i'm gonna get the pumpkin juice pumpkin pomegranate, right?
I can see that people honestly going out and drinking and mixing this with something
2 000 milligrams of vitamin c not your average vitamin c pack
That'll wake you up you guys we are looking at a samdak kimbap or a cheese filled onigiri
And this is from shirakiku and don't be surprised guys if this is making it big in the u.s
This is already big in many convenience stores all across korea. Oh my gosh. Look at this cheese stretch
Oh
Guys, you need a snack to go and you want to get your like kimchi fried rice fix
And something like this
Yo samdak kimbap guys
Dude you're just gonna make it in a microwave. It's got the cheese everything already on it
Super convenient. Mm. Oh stretch. What is this? What is this? Uh, this is quite the mozzarella stretch right here. Wow

Too great. How you gonna eat all that great easy way to get your korean fix from the korean convenience store to your doorstep
All right, you guys the next booth we are at is a brand new product
It's a south korean company, but they don't have this product in south korea only for the u.s market premium seaweed snacks
This is made out of real rice flour and rice
You know what? I noticed you guys were able to kind of make it look like fish skins organic seaweed
Oh
These are really light. It's not heavy not too greasy
It doesn't seem like it's gonna give me a lot of that kind of like hot food feeling in cantonese
You might say yeet. Hey, but this is
This is delicious actually
All right, guys, we're here with manuela and we're about to go spin this wheel for some prizes of korean products. Wow

That you might have on your kitchen table in the next year or two
Yo, trust me
You guys know that we keep up with asian items asian food asian ingredients in general and I saw some stuff today that really really
Blew my mind david. What was your favorite one? The korean wave is continuing to keep rolling. There's more and more dramas
I'm gonna go ahead and say that the jeju island the double layer from home
A 10 out of 10 the product that I think that is gonna get really really popular very very soon is the cho gochujang
Which is the pineapple vinegar gochujang. Everybody knows gochujang
But I think now that everybody knows it people are also like yo, what's next?
What's the different iteration and that one just had a lot of like sweetness a little fruity bite to it
And I think that one's got some legs for sure huge shout out to the korean agro trade center
