Jesse Lingard eats live octopus for YouTube channel
Jesse Lingard, a former Manchester United player, recently filmed a YouTube video where he ate a live octopus. Lingard has been enjoying his time in South Korea, where he plays for FC Seoul. During a visit to Gwangjang Market, he tried various Korean street foods with friends. When he saw the octopus still moving on his plate, he was visibly uneasy and expressed his fear, saying, “I can’t eat because I’m scared.” He repeated his concerns several times before finally deciding to give it a try. After he ate the octopus, Lingard seemed more relaxed and joked that it was “easy.” He noted that the octopus was “not bad” and praised the other dishes he tried, including sweet and sour chicken. Lingard is loving his experience in Asia, having recently become the captain of FC Seoul. Despite a tough start to the season, the team has turned things around and is currently on a four-game unbeaten streak. Lingard even scored his first goal of the season against Anyang and celebrated enthusiastically.
