6:48 Korean chopsticks are usually made of metal, while Japanese chopsticks are usually made of wood. Round or flat doesn't matter, and traditionally, flat chopsticks are the standard in Korea. The round chopsticks you see in restaurants are machine-made products that are hollowed out to make them light, and are not the original handcrafted ones.

When you eat ssam, you can put whatever you want in the lettuce, but you must eat it in one bite. Next time, try making it a little smaller and eating it in one bite.

Every Korean people use chopsticks or spoon for eat rice. but When you eat bibimbap, I recommend use spoon for eat. (but use chopsticks or spoon for mix)
I can't understand many foreigners use chopsticks for eat bibimbap or kind of mixed rice or fried rice. that looks very uncomfortable :)
Basically use chopsticks or spoon for eat rice and use spoon for bibimbap or kind of mixed rice or fried rice.
