ive been watching your vids on/off since 2 years ago but i only realized from this upload that you got injured! this was such a heartfelt and honest video. you articulated it so well and i think alot of people like myself can relate to your outlook for life, especially the part @7:53. thank you for making such great content and enjoy your peace in kr.
Thank you for this video! For being vulnerable! 2025 will be a great year for you! Everyday 1% better, and every now and then remember to rest. Rooting for you!
Hello Demi, I’ve been following you for several months now, and I’m truly grateful for discovering your channel. You share so many valuable tips and insights on financial topics, from credit cards to investments, and I’ve learned a lot from your content. Thank you for generously sharing your knowledge! I also appreciate the personal touch you add by sharing aspects of your family life-it gives your audience a deeper connection to you. I truly believe you’re on the path to great success. Keep up the amazing work, and I’m confident you’ll achieve everything you aim for one day!
First comment! Really sweet first video for 2025. I enjoy the change of pace of the channel - not always finance edutainment, sometimes an honest transparent slice of life.
Back pain is normal in many people nowadays. I can feel you as I experience back pain with disc prolapsed 13 yrs ago which make me couldn't walk or even stand for a total of 4 weeks. I visited quite a number of doctors, chiro, physio and some doc tell me that my condition need to be operate as it is quite severe. I tell myself that i will definitely overcome this issue and I choose not to operate. 13 yrs had pass, I am now in gym doing squat while watching your video. Strengthen your back, correct posture and occasionally some osteopathic treatment work for me. Stretching helps as well. After 6 months from the severe back pain, my body adapt to the condition but I still need to be careful not to carry too heavy. I noticed that you sit on floor with your legs cross when unpacking the luguage. This is also a posture that is not so good for your back ya. Try to avoid. Lastly, happy new year and wish you all the best. Sending some love from Malaysia to you, Jason
For the spine issues, probably you might want to consider trying Malaysia’s famous Chinese traditional Tit Tar combined with chiropractic care by Chris Leong. It could potentially help with your back problem, but of course, it’s just a suggestion, no obligation!
I didn’t come here expecting to tear up… All the best! Side note: Have you tried withdrawing with the Trust Debit Card? Maybe something for the next video? :D
@ Does the conversion rate from foreign currency to USD and then to SGD still work out better than exchanging money at a money changer in Singapore? I’m considering skipping a trip to the Arcade to exchange KRW and JPY for my upcoming trip and instead withdrawing cash directly in Seoul and Osaka with the card. Thanks!
@@Lighties It follows Visa exchange rate so it is changing daily. If you think MAS is going to continue loosen their policy and let SGD depreciate, then change before your trip to lock in the favourable rates now.
To add on, the funny thing with ATM machines is that they are everywhere when you don't need it, but hard to find a working one when you most need it 🤣 But carrying a card is alot safer than bringing won and yen around, which are very big notes.
I’m both actually😂 Among the people I know, you have one of the strongest and most resilient inner selves, Demi! So proud of you, watching you pave your own path with it. It’s okay that you are only just figuring things out now- I’ve got your back always😉 So glad that Korea holds a special place in your heart, come often plssss

Wow thank you so much for this!! Happy new year to you too Jason!
Thanks for this genuine video and for sharing. Glad to see a fellow leftie! (Not the selfie camera right?) To a better 2025!
Haha yes fellow leftie! 💪🏼
Always remember to be grateful in life, even the problems you get, as it's an opportunity be stronger and better.
Always.
5:07 Trust card spotted!
Ur accomodation is almost as good as the hotel. How much did it cost you?
Bingoooo haha. my main travel card these days because of the 1% cashback. SGD$77 a night!
@@DemiZhuang it's a very good price! Quite big some more, with washing machine. Btw, which category did you set to forgo the 1% cashback?
@@motherbear5997 Entertainment!
nice. Enjoy ur trip
Speedy recovery… I miss your authentic voice .. haha

I notice you like to go South Korea... Love your videos and sharing.
YOU are stronger than you are ever. Take care my dear
this is a very interesting video!!

Hi Demi, would you be able to share which Airbnb is this? I’m looking for accommodation for my trip later this year. Thank you!
I’ll share next week!
I didn’t come here expecting to tear up… All the best!

I've been doing it, just be careful when the machine is in foreign languages to not click accept conversions.
