About the episode

It’s a steaming-hot day, but Dave makes a celebratory dish of tteok mandu guk, a Korean rice cake and dumpling soup, for his guest, singer and actor Eric Nam. They discuss being Korean American today and how much has changed since they were young, their Korean language proficiency, and, of course, Eric’s recent stint on Traitors. Dave and Eric talk about their favorite Korean foods, how great banchan is, and why the dishes of gimbap and hoe might take off in the future.
