🇺🇸 뉴욕은 [차이나타운]부터? 파이브포인츠 역사 투어 (ft.딤섬 맛집)

Today, I'm going to explore the immigration office in New York. Even today, I came to Chinatown and Little Italy, where the immigration office in New York lives the most vividly. The place where I'm standing right now is probably one of the most important crossroads in American immigration history. It's the five-point five-way in the movie Gangs of New York. Gangs of New York's gangster, Builder Butcher, is talking about it. The five-point five-way is like five fingers, so if you put these five fingers in your hand, you'll get a fist. But when you come here, you'll think, uh, it's not a five-way, it's a three-way. There's a road called Baxter here. Baxter used to go through here and go this way. So it was a four-way. There's a park called Columbus Park here, and there's another way down. Park Street, Wolf Street, and Baxter's meeting place were five points. It was a neighborhood where immigrants from a lot of countries lived. It was a neighborhood where you could hear five, six, seven languages. In a bad way, it's a crime den and a notorious slum. In a good way, it's a place that achieved the American dream. It's also a holy place for immigrants from Italy, China, and Ireland. First of all, this neighborhood is gone. It's been redeveloped, and now there's a government building and a big apartment complex left. There were a few important buildings here. First of all, there was a bar called Brennan in Tweed Gang in New York. The rich people living in the north of New York provide education and activities to the poor women living in this neighborhood. If there's still a five-point mission building left, it's the one right behind me. I'm going to follow the order of the Gangs of New York content. When I asked how the slum was formed, I've heard that all around here used to be a lake called Collect Pond. Today, there's only a park sign left here. And there's a little fountain inside to commemorate the old lake. It's all dry because it's not running right now. It's only there when it rains. There used to be a huge lake here. There was a huge brewery called Old Brewery House, a mood factory that produced something using water from the lake. After the brewery went out of business, many immigrants came here. They put a wooden board on the basement of the brewery and started giving birds to the immigrants. There's a trace of that left. I don't think there's any trace of that left. And then there were a lot of buildings called tenements that gave birds to the immigrants who came from Germany or Ireland alone. There are still a lot of tenement-type buildings left. It's Chinatown and Little Little today. I'm on my way up to Burberry. There are streets like Baxter, Burberry, Bowery, and Elizabeth. If you're a fan of American history, you'll hear the names of the gangs of the era. There were gangs like Burberry Gang and Bowery Boys. For example, there was a brewery owner named Walsh in Burberry. In the U.S., salons always have two gangs. There was a friend named Walsh's Guard. The Bowery Boys' riot, which collided with the Bowery Boys on the street above, was the motif of the Gangs of New York. If you look at the night scene, you can feel the atmosphere of Dongdaemun and Jongno. If you look here, there's a street called Bayard Street. Burberry and Motga are the center of Chinatown. If you go up, there's a street called Canal Street. It's a canal that was built to drain the water from the Collect Lake. So it's based on the Canal Street, and the south is Chinatown, and the north is Little Italy. And this is where the islanders lived in the 1830s. In the 1890s and 1930s, Italian immigrants settled mainly in Burberry. Burberry reminds you of Daebut, right? There's a scene where Italian immigrants come and sell fruits. The next thing that arrived was the Chinese immigrants, so the Chinese immigrants are living now. Until the early 20th century, the people who immigrated the most lived on this street. That's why Burberry is a place where the stories of many nations are intertwined. Mot Street is a very important street in China and Hong Kong. One of the most important addresses is the building behind me that looks like nothing. 32 Mot Street It's a financial company that represents Hong Kong. There's a dim sum restaurant in the basement of HSBC headquarters that looks like a Chinese mafia base. The name of the restaurant is 32 Mot Street. I don't think there's anything here, but why is it so important? There was a Chinese food store that ran from 1920 to 2003. Chinese immigrants gathered around food, and they called it Tong. Chinese immigrants get help through Tong, get loans, and get guarantees when they start a new business. That's how they settled in New York. There are a few supermarkets that are the center of Tong in New York. One of them is 32 Mot Street. This was the biggest one. Later, as Tong became more and more, they became rivals. There was a gang war called Tong War. Tong, which was centered on Mot Street, and Tong, which was centered on another street, fought. The best winner of that was American Drum. This was the lowest level of the tournament. And there's a very interesting road that goes from Mot Street to the right. It's called Pell Street. Among the photos we used as a background for the Gangs of New York, This is Pell Street, where the people wearing the Island hat are standing on the crowded, empty streets. One thing that can't be missed in American immigration history is Tenement, which is a type of tenement house where poor immigrants live close together. They were trying to make the rent cheap, so they had to save space for the stairs. The stairs were this high. When there's a fire, people roll down, so they come down in a hurry. They even made a law to install stairs outside the window. They called the very poor houses a tenement. 65 Mot Street was the first house built for the purpose of a tenement. The previous tenement was like a brothel in a collective fund. It was like sleeping on the floor. If it's an upgrade, it's an upgrade. It's a tenement house with a minimum number of people living in one room. So if you look here, it's all built in the form of a tenement. From the East Village up there to the government building, It's a tenement house full of tenements. Little Italy and Chinatown were built today. It's all one room up here. It's not cheap here. I think I'll have to pay 250. It's lunch time. New Yorkers love to eat. Actually, it's been Chinatown since the early 20th century. Because the United States is a country that follows Christian law. There weren't many tenements on Sundays. But most of the Chinese were open on Sundays. They don't usually open at night in other neighborhoods. It's been open for almost 24 hours here. If you listen to the stories of New York artists in the 1960s and 1970s, I was drinking until 2 a.m. I went to Chinatown because I was sad. There's a tenement house here that says it's the oldest Chinese house in New York. It says Nomwa Tea Parlor. It says Chinatown's First Tenement Parlor. It's been around since the 1920s. It shows how important this house is in New York immigration. There's a party called the Met Gala where all the American social workers get together and party in the most fancy dress. I've had a free party here. It's New York's pride. Oh, it's hot. Wow. It's really good. I think it's a mixture of shrimp and meat. When I eat dumplings, I dip it in soy sauce and vinegar. But I don't want to dip this in anything. Tofu Fried tofu inside Fried tofu dumplings Um. Wow, this is really... Oh, this is awesome. You know the fried tofu in udon? Fried tofu I made it into a dumpling. Kim Sung-chip's review is... If you don't try Xiaomai, Xiaomai is shrimp. It's just shrimp. Street food in that country is for poor people. I can't use a lot of meat or shrimp. American dream is that. Let's go to a poor country and eat as much as we want. So it's just shrimp. It's just pork. In fact, if you look at the history of immigrants to the United States, The poorest people in their country come to the United States. Sicilians came to Italy. In China, rather than people from Beijing or Shanghai, People from Fujian and Taichung came a lot. But when those people come to the United States, Anyway, if you work hard for a day, That's what you can eat. That's American dream. A lot of people come to New York and talk about that. It's so dirty. It's a smelly city with a small house. What kind of American dream is that? American dream is not starving. If you work hard, you won't starve.
