Maangchi, I'm so sorry to hear of the loss of your Mother. I'm glad that you got to spend as much time with her as you could during her last moments and I know you made a lot of new terrific memories with her. Just remember the good times and memories. As you say, whatever the next chapter holds, will be an adventure for sure! You've taught us all a lot over the years, and you are truly a blessed person. I know your parents are very proud of the woman you have become over the years and will continue to inspire and bring joy to the world. <3.

I am so very sorry for your loss. My mother died 5 years ago and I miss her still. I think of her and the cooking experiences I learned mostly from her mother, my grandmother. I enjoy watching your videos and learning about Korean food, Korean culture and all the unique techniques you teach. I know you learned a lot from your mom and grandmother. You are keeping their memories alive when you share the videos with us all. I am not old enough to be your mom, but please consider me an auntie~ xxooxx

I'm so sorry for your loss!! We love you very much. Well, I can't speak for everybody - I love you a whole lot, your generosity and archival work, your ability to share so much across space and time, and it seems like many people also appreciate everything you've done. Thank you so much for the September newsletter. I haven't been cooking very much lately, but I promise to try making your meatball recipe for my partner soon. Please take time for yourself! Enjoy your new home! Wishing you all the best.

So sorry for your loss. You are very smart in moving your own crock of soy sauce. If I had one, I would do it myself. Keep at what your are doing. We love you.

I never comment, but I just had to this time. I was deeply moved, especially because I know you never skip your reader’s contributions! I knew it must be too much for you at this time. That’s okay! We understand, and we love you! We will all be waiting for you next time around!

I will also say goodbye to your mother with you in spirit, as though I could stand beside you in that moment as you looked out onto the ocean. May kindness keep you, always.🩷
