Before I came to Vietnam,
what I wanted to try the most was banh xeo.
I want to eat banh xeo.
It's like a pancake made with rice dough.
It's a wrap with ingredients in it.
- Is it tasty? / - I heard it's very tasty.
It's like wrapping with fried dough.
It's not like Korean fritters.
(What would banh xeo taste like in south Vietnam?)
My gosh, it looks delicious.
I'm hungry.
We were hungry too, so we went to eat something.
(25 minutes by taxi from "S" Beach Club to restaurant)
- Haena. / - Yes.
The place we're going for lunch is
a very famous place among the locals here.
If you ask the taxi drivers here,
everyone will tell you to go eat banh xeo there.
- Is it this place? / - It's like a transport cafe.
It's the most popular place among the taxi drivers.
There are a lot of people who have it takeaway.
I can already feel that it'll be delicious.
This must be a famous banh xeo restaurant.
- I love this kind of place. / - Right?
(She's making banh xeo on the street)
They put meat and other ingredients in.
It was my first time trying it.
- It was delicious. / - It's $1.
- It's only a dollar. / - It was very delicious.
I want to go there too.
It's so cheap.
(A happiness you can buy with $1)
(Expectant)
- What is this? / - It's banh xeo.
So this is banh xeo.
What is this?
- This is called nuoc mam. / - I see.
It's like fish sauce in Korea.
- I can smell fish. / - Right?
It's like anchovy sauce we use when
we make kimchi.
Famous chefs from all over the world come here
to buy this sauce.
- They go all the way there? / - Yes.
I don't know how to eat this.
Just add whatever you'd like to eat on the lettuce.
Then wrap it and dip it in the sauce.
It has vegetables in it.
(It's Haena's first Vietnamese dish)
I can taste flour, corn and starch.
I think they made the dough out of them.
- It was very delicious. / - It was really good.
It's like eating fritters but
all the ingredients separately.
- It tastes like green onion fritters. / - It does.
It's like seafood fritters.
It's delicious.
Nuoc mam is so tasty.
The sauce puts all the flavors together.
- That's very delicious. / - It looks so delicious.
(Everyone fell in love with banh xeo)
Nuoc mam opened my eyes.
It was so good.
If we didn't have nuoc mam, it would've been bad.
I want to try this one.
This is made with coconut.
It's like a coconut pancake.
Does it have coconut inside?
- That one was amazing. / - That was...
That was incredible.
- It's only 10 cents. / - It's 10 cents.
(One banh khot, about 10 cents)
This one is really tasty.
It has a texture I have never tried before.
- It's like sticky rice. / - It is.
- It was like sticky rice. / - It's so moist on the inside.
It doesn't have a strong coconut flavor.
I can smell coconut a bit.
I'd like to have 10 pieces of it.
- I can eat 10 of those. / - 10 pieces would be easy.
It's so tasty.
I thought flour and vegetable won't go well together.
- But they go very well together. / - They do.
They seem to be truly enjoying it.
(She looks like she would eat her own fingers)
We're eating so much, aren't we?
(They enjoy the food fully)
(Today, they won't worry about eating too much)
We paid $2.50 each.
- Really? / - And we were so full in the end.
Didn't you feel bad when you pay?
Where are we going now?
- Now... / - Yes.
- Let me explain with the map. / - Okay.
We're now around here.
We're here, and we have to go there.
We're going to a spa now.
- Spa? / - Yes.
Spa? Go, go?
Shall we get going?
If there's a spa as well, I'd love to go there.
It seems like we've won you over.
I'm kind of attracted, yes.
- You look convinced. / - I have to watch till the end.
(They take a taxi to the mud spa)
Let's go to the spa.
Alright.
- There's a taxi. / - Let's get this one.
Taxi.
- The taxi looks so small. / - It's the cheapest taxi.
- The basic fee is 30 cents. / - Yes, it's 30 cents.
We'd like to go to the mud spa, please.
It's fun to watch out the window from here.
We can see the downtown of Phu Quoc.
- Look over there. / - It's the port.
(There's a port and a beautiful sky next to city)
It's so pretty.
This town is cute.
This town is not so developed,
so I like it.
- It's so cute. / - It looks like a toy village.
I feel like it'll be very different in five years from now.
You're right.
There would be pros and cons.
- It won't be like this then. / - No.
- We're almost there. / - We're almost there.
So it's a mud spa.
Here we are.
- We're here. / - Let's go.
It looks pretty.
It looks somewhat traditional.
(What would the mud spa look like?)
(There's a lot of open-air baths)
What are they? Are they baths?
- It's an open-air spa. / - So you can bathe there.
It must be so hot to bathe outdoors.
It wasn't that bad because of the shade from the trees.
There is a cool breeze from the beach as well.
(One hour in the mud spa, about $22)
It's outside.
It's a completely open place.
People are bathing here.
Usually, the color of mud is black.
But this one is light brown.
- I thought it'd be black. / - So did I.
- Do we just go in there? / - Do we?
Can we just go in now?
(The tub is empty but they go in for now)
Can we just stay in here?
(An employee comes over after they go into the tub)
(The mud spills out)
(Wow)
(It's a moisturizing mud spa)
It's a mix of mud and mineral hot spring water.
I want to touch it.
Don't drink it.
(The mud feels very soft)
- Look at this. / - It feels really nice, doesn't it?
I'm going to sit down.
It's warm.
Kyunga. Kyunga.
Can I splash you?
This is interesting.
(Take this)
Kyunga.
Kyunga.
(The mud fills up the tub in no time)
- They really fill it up. / - Exactly.
- Kids will like it. / - It's good for families.
Yes, it's perfect for families.
Doesn't the mud water look nice even from the clip?
Whenever there's a breeze,
I can feel the coolness.
Koreans, including myself...
- Like warm water and a hot bath. / - That's right.
- It has to be warm. / - Right.
We must heat up our bodies.
- Then our fatigue washes away. / - I agree.
(This is how models enjoy warm mud)
(Acting like they've fallen into a swamp)
Save me. Save me.
- They're weird. / - Save me.
I feel like my skin is getting soft.
Kyunga.
(Massaging with the bucket)
- Should I help you out? / - Namaste.
- Kyunga. Is it your bikini? / - Yes?
With this?
That's not cool.
I'm getting sleepy.
- Kyunga. / - I might fall asleep.
Don't fall asleep.
That must've been nice.
- After the spa, our skin got really soft. / - Right.
(They leisurely enjoy the spa)
- Haena. There's... / - Yes?
An important highlight on my itinerary.
When we were on the taxi, I said...
- We're going to a night market. / - Oh, right.
That's where we'll go at night.
- That's going to be a blast. / - Right.
- Let's dress up nicely... / - Okay.
- And head to the night market. / - Okay.
- Dress sexy. / - I'll eat delicious food.
Let's take a tour around the night market.
Should we get going now?
(They must hurry to the market)
(Screaming)
- What? / - What is it?
- What is that? / - Is that how you clean the mud?
- It's like a car wash. / - Yes.
(She strikes a pose in the midst of this)
Gosh, models are different from us indeed.
(This is how top models wash off the mud)
- Ta-da. / - When you spin, it washes off.
But if I do that, it'd wash off my makeup.
It will clean the top of my head too.
You're right.
