- Today, we're expanding
our street food knowledge. - Let's talk about that. (gentle music) - Good Mythical Summer. - And please welcome singer, rapper, dancer, fashion designer,
record label founder, international superstar, and all around lovable goofball, Jackson Wang.
- Yes. (crew cheering) - Hey, this is Jackson Wang. - What do you not do, man? - No, I'm not really good at it, I'm not, it's just like a-
- Come on. - Come on. - Well, how good are you
at trying to get people to try new foods? - I might have a dream, I want to be the co-host of this show. - Oh, okay all right. So this is your audition. - Oh, cool okay, again. - You gotta replace him, right? - Good Mythical Morning. - I love it. So whoever loses this game, Jackson is gonna replace.
- Yes. - So now the stakes have
gone a lot further up. - Wow. - Because we're gonna be
tasting food from your childhood growing up in China. We have to guess if it's truly
from there or somewhere else. - Yes.
- You ready? - I'm ready. - You hungry?
- Yes. - I'm hungry. - It's time for, Trying New Street Foods But Can We Guess Where They're From? And can Jackson Wang help us or will he scoff and call us bums? - All right, in each round
we'll be served a dish and then Rhett and I are gonna
have to guess, like I said, if it's a street food that
Jackson grew up loving in China, by guessing Chinese, or not these. - That's a good one, that's a good one. - Okay so Jackson-
- Thank you. - Your job is to convince
us that their dishes when you enjoyed it as a kid in China, even if it's from somewhere else, okay. - Where did your jacket go? - No, I just took it off
'cause I felt like too. I want to be like t-shirt.
- Okay. - T-shirt boys.
- All right. - I mean, you wanna hang it up? You want to I mean-
- It's cool. - Like if it's all right,
I'll put it over my shoulder. - Yeah, yeah. - Just kind of just like, yeah, just like. - Oh yeah. Look at that. (crew laughing) - Well, that's nice. - All right, if we get
the majority correct. We're actually working together, and we did that so there's no way that Jackson could replace one of us. - Smart. - But if we get the majority correct, then we get to perform a flip with Jackson because we know that
you're amazing at flips. - A little bit. Yeah, I do a little like tricking. - It's wild. - Is it? - But yeah, I'm ready to do one with you. - A cartwheel? - Eh.
- No? - Let's just see what happens, man. (nervous laughing) Kalyn, why don't you
bring in the first dish? - All right. - And be sure to tell Jackson
what a big fan you are. - No. - Oh what?
- Don't lie to me right now. - That's crazy, that must
have been someone else. - Come on now.
- Oh my. - Well let's have a conversation. - Oh, oh. (crew laughing) - Thank you. - [Kalyn] Oh. - Should we open this? - You don't know what that
just did for her, man. - Yeah, I think she- - That was a big moment. - I don't think she wanted
to acknowledge this. - Do you know what this is? - This looks like a
candy coated strawberry. And that is a freaking huge strawberry. - You call that bingtang hulu. - Bingtang hulu.
- Bingtang hulu. - Yes, bingtang hulu. You have that sugar syrup.
- From your childhood? - Yes, from my childhood. - So your job is to convince us of that. - That it's a Chinese food.
- Even if it's not so. - Honestly, I don't know.
- You're doing a good job. - Honestly, I have no idea.
- Are you a good liar? - My mom told me that it's Chinese food, so I believed it, right. So, and-
- This is tricky. - It's like candy apple - This next level mind tricks right here. - Oh, wow it's totally like a candy apple. - What did you call it? - Bingtang hulu. - Bingtang hulu. - Oh my God.
- Hold on, did you get your brain? - Dude,
- What do you think? - It could not have come closer to stabbing the back of my throat. - How the heck did that happen? Why did you push so hard? - Dude, I don't know, I almost died just then. - No, you're not supposed to, you're supposed to eat it gently. - Well, thanks for telling me now. - As if you're like having a kiss. - You're not supposed to stab. I don't understand how like. - No, no, no, no, no, no. - It went into the back of my throat. - But why? I don't understand. You're trying to push it into your mouth? I don't get it.
- No I was biting it? - You didn't even finish this one. - I'm showing what I did, I'm reenacting it. I bit the end of it like this and when I chomped down on it, the stick went up into my brain. - Imagine you're having
a kiss, like a kiss, Right, yeah. - [Rhett] That true. (crew laughing) What part of this- - Oh, you can eat it like that too. - What part of his wife's body is that? - This is actually my shower
wall where I practice kissing. - It's really good.
- Right? - This is so much better
than a candy apple Jackson. - So Link we gotta work together on this. I'm still kind of shaken up. - The additional detail that
Jackson threw in there about, "my mom told me, "you know, that I enjoyed this as a kid." To me that lends credence to it. - Yeah, I think this is Chinese. - I agree. - All right, so we're saying Chinese.
- Chinese. - You just had bingtang hulu, it's Chinese. - Okay, all right. Okay great.
- Yes. - Wait, did I just give it, it's too easy? Is it too easy. - No, no, you're just, I mean, you just told us the truth and I- - Until I see you lie, I don't know. - Yeah right, I didn't sense
any falsehood in you at all. - The next one I'll try
to do something with it. - Okay, well we're gonna find out. Kayla, now come on in. There's no reason to be nervous just because you're a massive fan. - Listen, allegedly.
- Just admit to it. - Allegedly, okay. - You're a fan. You speak Chinese, speak some Chinese. - Oh, you speak Chinese?
- Show off a little bit. - Yeah, yeah just a little, I mean. (speaking Chinese) - Oh my God. (speaking Chinese) - It's happening again. (speaking Chinese) - Okay, Kayla.
- Okay. - All right Kayla, we gotta do our jobs here. - Later.
- Okay later. Oh, that was a line she memorized? - Wow, no, no I think she- - No, she speaks Chinese. - She speaks all kinds of stuff. - She speaks all types of stuff. - Yeah, yeah, yeah She full of surprises.
- We don't you. - You're wearing the jacket now? - It's yeah, I'm loving it. Oh my, we've got some sort of egg. - This is called cha ye dan. It's called like tea egg. - Is it from a chicken? - Of course. (crew laughing) - I mean, it doesn't
look like a chicken egg. - No, it's like the color. - But if a chicken egg
comes out like that, you gotta take that chicken
to a chicken doctor. - It's like food coloring.
- Oh, it's added. - Yeah, it's added on.
- Okay. - Yeah, smell it, it's like real good. - Yeah, it smells like a egg.
- It's fragrant. - Is it? So it's tea? It's teadified? - It's like boiled eggs and
then you put it in the hot water and then with some soy sauce and tea. - And you're making all that up, you're lying to me right now.
- No. My mom told me that. - Okay, you keep, he's blaming his mom. - Maybe a specific memory as a kid that you associate with
this, like oh yeah? - Do I just bite it? - Don't do what you did with the bingtang. - Don't stab yourself.
- None of this. - Like just eat it like
how you would eat a egg. - Yeah.
- And then. - It's like a boiled egg
with a little bit of, - [Rhett] Yeah. - Little bit of a tea flavor. - Thank you, oh wow. I mean, you don't have to do that. - This is a full service episode. - You got some something. - I think he's trying to suck up to you after lying to your face. - You think he's lying about it? - [Link] He doesn't know what this is. - No, if you say I'm lying, then I'll say my mom was lying. - I'm not afraid to say your mom's a liar. - Mom, you're lying, mom.
- Your mom's a liar. - Okay, I mean, first
of all, it's very good. I mean-
- He had a lot of details- - Taste like a slightly salty boiled egg. - You like it? - Why is it cold?
- Oh. It's supposed to be hot.
- He's expecting it to be hot. - Oh my God. - I'm just trying to return the favor. (crew laughing) - So I think this is- - You didn't even have anything on there. I mean, I'm just being polite. - I think, because he
said, "Why is it cold?" It's supposed to be hot. He's either a master deceiver or he is telling the truth. - They also call it like
the dinosaur egg, you know, because of the pattern here. - Oh, wow.
- See that's good detail. - You totally just made that up. - He's lying. - My mom, not me.
- His mom's lying. - Are you sure dude?
- I think so. I think he's lying. - All right.
- I'm gonna say, Not these.
- Not these. Are we right? - You just had Chinese food. - Again. See, he's being sincere.
- Okay. - He could be a horrible liar, we haven't experienced it. Yeah, but I mean, okay, so we should trust you from here on out. - My mom, trust my mom. - He's always deflecting. - Kalyn still not, it's not clear if she's a super fan or not but I'm pretty sure she is, is back with another dish. - And you know what?
- Has the jacket on. - I actually forgot, there's a very important legal document that we forgot to get your signature on. Do you mind signing? For our lawyers of course. - A very important
legal document that says "Important document."
- Yes, yes. We just need your signature on there and make sure to make it out to Kalyn. K-A
- Okay. - [Kalyn L-Y-N. - [Rhett] Make this legal
document out to Kalyn. - Yeah, we have a lawyer.
- You know how they work. - But don't write her name
over the legal documents part 'cause I think she's gonna
probably cut that off. - [Kalyn] K-A-L-Y-N. Yeah, that's great. We have a lawyer the same name, it's really rare, but. - Kalyn
- It just happens. - Kalyn I think we're
gonna have to update the, every round. She's getting what she wants, another hug. All right. - You're not getting paid
for this episode you realize. You're getting all payment you deserve. - You have yet to lie to us. - Oh, it smells good. - This is fish balls. - Fish balls.
- Fish balls. Those are big.
- You know what, you never see a fish with balls it's because they cut 'em off
and put 'em in this lettuce. - No, what balls are you talking about? - Testes.
- Testicles. - Oh, no, no, no, not that balls. - Oh. - It's fish meatballs. - Oh.
- Yeah like- - Balls that's made out of fish meat. - I know about these 'cause I've had 'em in soups and whatnot. Just eat it with my mouth.
- Yeah. Put this on top.
- On top. - Oh, you gotta get the little, a little- - Put it like a little scallion. - [Jackson] You probably want
to tear like a piece of this to eat it like a combo.
- Oh really? And they call it the triple X in the- - Triple X? - Like triple three, like triple three, like one, two, three.
- This is good. I don't mean to offend you
'cause I know you're lying to us, this is not from your childhood in China. - It is definitely, my mom confirmed. - You know, your mom really should be here because you keep throwing
her under the bus. - I mean, as a kid, you know, you just eat whatever your
parents give you, right. - Fish ball, sure mom. - That's a good fish ball.
- Man it's so good. Do you dip it at anything? - You do it with the combo. - The triple X. - Triple, yeah. (hissing) - Okay, what was that? - That was just a little. - Triple X is a movie. - I'm experimenting with some things because you're a lot cooler than he is. And I don't normally hang
out with people that are cool and so I'm just- - At least you're admitting that- - I'm adding something-
- You're trying hard. - I can't even do it. It was just my brain wasn't even working, it was just like a spur
of the moment thing. We'll have to watch it back. - Jackson, tell us some more lies about how this is from your childhood. - No, no, not lies. Honestly, my mom it's like she- - Gave it to you.
- Told me about this combo. Like how the grandparents-
- She called it the triple X? - Yes, she said that her mom told her, like the grandparents, it's like a- - So this is generational. - Since like the Song Dynasty, like back in like ancient times, this is how everybody ate. - Triple X, you mis-stepped with that one. You should have stuck with your mom. - But sometimes you put it
like on a stick and you eat it. - And then you stab yourself
in the roof of the mouth. - Okay.
- And then you do this. - All right, he's saying
put it on a stick. Jackson, I'm not changing my answer. - I don't believe him. Not these.
- Not these. Where are these from really? - You just had Chinese food. - No what? - Okay, it's not the dynasty or whatever, it's just fish balls. - Okay.
- It's fish balls. - Okay, all right. - We keep thinking that
you're gonna lie to us and you're just telling us
the truth this whole time. - I'd really love to see you lie one day. - I mean, what's the point of this game? (crew laughing) - All right Kalyn, let's see
our next street food item. And of course, do you have anything else you wanna get signed, autographed, whatever word you want to use? - No, I'm just here to
drop off the food and go. But actually, while I'm here. (speaking Chinese) - Talking about you being tall. - The set was amazing. - Okay. (speaking Chinese) - Me? No, not us. - She just pointed at
me and I said something. (speaking Chinese) - Talking about your
thing you're known for. - My signature moves. - Oh. - All right, and of course. Okay Kalyn. I hope you're happy. - I'm happy.
- I'm confused. Oh, look at these. These are like little tacos. - [Rhett] Is that a taco with some. - [Jackson] No, it's not. - Why don't you explain it? - You want me to? - Yeah, yeah, yeah. Instead of us just keep saying things. - Remember this from your childhood? - [Jackson] It's called the blanket. - The blanket? (foreign language), it's
called (foreign language). - [Link] It looks like a blanket. Is it supposed to be folded like a taco? - Yeah, no you eat it like rolling it up. You have to roll it.
- Oh you roll it. - Yeah, yeah. You have to roll it. - You roll it up like a little- - [Rhett] And what is that inside? - In every city and every
province it's different. - Oh, that's like marshmallow fluff. - Yeah, you're supposed to
eat it like in one bite. - Oh, sweet.
- Like this. - This is good. Oh, just get in there. - This one my mom didn't tell me. Okay. My dad. (laughing) - Oh, okay. - What did your dad say? - My dad said eat this, oh, it's very good for men. - Oh. Very good for men. Oh you got a little. They really got a thing going. (hissing) (laughing) Two of them.
- We touch, this is a. - I'm a little jealous. - It's like ET, I mean hey.
- It's cool. - You got it, you know what I saying? - Dad said it was good for men. - That's what I was
thinking as I was eating it. - You're a man.
- This is good for me. I'm a man. - It's good for the hormone. - The testosterone? - Muscle and like immune
system too and everything. - But are you picking
up on any lying here? - Okay, here's what I'll say. We've sucked this, he's been great. We've sucked, we were wrong
two outta three times. However, he changed his strategy, suddenly he's bringing his dad into it. - Right. - It feels like maybe he's just lying now. - See you, sometimes you
just think too much, man. (crew laughing) - Maybe he's incapable of lying. Cause he hasn't lied in
previous rounds, right? - He hasn't. - But a second ago when I went
and then we touched fingers, something felt a little off. (crew laughing) Yeah, see if you can feel it. Hold on, he gave you the opportunity. - I don't feel like I can get in on it. - Yeah, that's good. - It's really your thing.
- Yeah it's our thing. You're right, you're right, you're right. - Let's make our thing. - Elbows, all right. (laughing) - All right he's lying.
- He's lying. - This is not these.
- Not these. - You just had not these. - Okay.
- We got it right. - And you lied. - [Mindy] This is a Thai street food. - Bringing your dad
into it that's when you- - [Mindy] Called khanom
bueang or Thai crepes. And it's a rice flour pancakes, and meringue and candied egg yolk. - I'm sorry.
- Good for men. - I'm sorry that I lied
about the hormones, and the man, and my dad. - Yeah, yeah, yeah. - And that was very elaborate. Okay, so we finally got another one right. - Okay it all comes down
to this round for the flip. - Yeah, this is a heavy dish so I needed a little extra help from- - There we go. - A very special person named Mindy. - Hi.
- Hi. - Hi. Yeah, I know, I know. Oh my God. - Yeah. They're not fans at all. - This was not approved guys. Mindy shows up helping. - Thank you.
- Thank you, thank you. - Not protocol. - I'm sorry what just happened? - I don't know about what just happened. - They're not fans at all. - Oh before, let me introduce this is- - Okay.
- A dinner dish. - Not street food.
- Not street food, yeah. - [Link] Okay, we've
got some sort of a soup. - Yes.
- Which explains this. - He's dangerous, even with spoons. - Oh this is called, okay maybe take a sip first. - Oh we got a spoon for. - Drink it like this.
- Oh you drink it like that? I can do that. Oh, okay. - So nice.
- So nice. - Childhood, it tastes like childhood. So this soup is called the fish head soup. - Oh, is that what I was tasting? - Yes. - But the fish heads are like filtered out 'cause I don't see any in there. - Did that come out of a fish heads? - Yes. Yes. Oh no, this is tofu.
- Okay, good. - Where's the fish head? - Oh. So this is all the- - That's everything that was in there. - That's fish heads.
- Yes. - That's not unappetizing
in any way, it's actually- - It's pretty good.
- Very inviting. - It's just kind of like a broth almost just like a sea food broth. - Oh yeah, yeah, yeah, you get the broth. You want some of that?
- Very nice. Yeah.
- Okay. So you seem to really be enjoying this, you're tapping into your childhood. He hasn't mentioned his dad. - Yeah, who told you about this? - I told myself. - You wanna bring your dad into this? - I told myself.
- You told yourself about it. - Yes.
- You found this one. - 'Cause back as growing up, going to school, you know, we always go
across this restaurant, we always pass by.
- Okay. - And they're famous for
making like fish heads soup and I would always, you know, grab one. - What do they do with
the rest of the fish? - That's their business,
you know, I'm just buying, I'm just ordering the food, I don't know what they do in the kitchen. - Good answer.
- Right. (hissing) - He got me there. That's their business. - I'm torn on this one, man. I'm right down the middle with believing him and
thinking he might be lying. I lost some trust there in the last round when he started talking about his dad. - Okay, I'll be serious this time. This is really good for men. (laughing) No, no I swear. - He says but this time-
- I swear. - He's bringing out
this good for men again? - Yeah, yeah, yeah. - That was definitely a lie last time. - I swear. - He didn't bring his dad into it but he did bring men into it. - School life, that restaurant that is not my business. - Yep, I remember that, that was a good story. I think this is real.
- It's real. - This is Chinese.
- Chinese. - Gave out too much information. You just had Chinese food. - Yes.
- Hey, we got it. That's three outta five.
- We have won the majority. That means that we won the flip. - Yes.
- You ready? - And let's do it together. - Let's do it together.
- All right okay. Okay yep. - One, two, three. - It was a hair flip.
- Ah hair flip. - Thanks again to Jackson

As a long time K-Pop fan and an even longer GMM fan, this was a very welcome surprise!
Have to be honest, at first didn't think this was going to be a great episode, they weird waybhe was looking at them as each one talked. But this turned out to be a great episode. He was very charming and seemed to have pretty good chemistry with the guys.
The Kalyn hugs were very cute. She looked so nervous.
ETA: Spelling corrected, thanks!
I have no clue who the guest is but he seemed to be vibing pretty good with the guys and it was a good episode overall.
Today's GMMore was that wrong one from the other day.
It's almost mind bending to see Jackson Wang of all people on GMM, that's two universes colliding for me!
I had no idea who the guy was but I’m now a fan. He’s very personable and charming.
this almost feels like kpop fanfiction lmao
Not familiar with the guest but I thought he was charming and it was a really funny episode. I love when they have guests who speak a different language with one of the crew members and RL are left guessing what they’re saying.
