bro, stop using politics as factor for why people do things. You're going to alienate people. I was enjoying your video until politics came on. Why push away half of your potential viewers? just stupid
To all Americans or whatever else nationality you are considering living in Korea. You MUST learn Korean to make local friends and live life comfortably. Even when all your friends speak English, you still MUST learn Korean, if you wanna enjoy life there.
After living in Korea for almost 5 years and then moving back to Canada for over 4 years now, this video strikes a cord. Although I have more vacation time here and more independence in terms of language, I miss being financially stable in Korea. Here, I’m always pinching pennies despite having a full-time management position. And don’t even get me started on the Healthcare differences… I feel that Korea has made fun accessible. I had a much better work/fun life balance there and things were so much more affordable. I needed to go back to Canada for personal reasons, but if you’re genuinely happy, stay wherever makes you thrive. ✨
Koreans dont do small talk… except Ahjummas and grannies and grandpas. Old people are a lot more sociable withforeigners. They may be nosy, and sometimes look rude (they Dont have filters 😂), but a lof of old people like chatting with strangers, and once you talk to them they are very warm and friendly. If you are a people- person, talk to old people. Some are very sweet. Young people are shy and reserved, and they think talking to strangers may be rude. But if you ask for help they will try hard.
I am in native New Yorker who has traveled throughout the world mostly in Asia and in Europe. I have never thought that the United States is the center of the universe in fact quite the opposite. I remember the first day I arrived in Barcelona 10 minutes being in that awesome city ,I never felt more alive in my whole life.
Sophia... how did you find your way to Korea? How did you become interested? What opportunities led you there? What's the cost of living? How much do you get paid as a model there compared to the states? What really keeps you there? I'm former US military and have lived all over the states and other nations.
As many have mentioned, the content is getting a lot better (was already good) :) I am staying in Seoul for 3 months starting in February so these videos are super informative. Thanks for making them :)
This is the video I needed!! I got into k-dramas and K-pop almost 3 years ago and got really into the language and culture and I visited for the first time in April 2024 for 2 weeks and I’m going back in January and staying for 2 months. It is so unsafe where I live. When I went to Korea in April, there was a break-in, a double murder, and a stabbing just in my little city in Mississippi. All that was just in the first week I was gone. I am currently getting my bachelors and hopefully graduating December 2025. After that I want to become an English teacher in Korea. I have anxiety and depression and Korea was honestly the happiest I’ve been in a long time. I just quit my job because of the stress and instead of finding a new job right away, I’m wanting to take 1 more vacation to Korea for 2 months this time. I don’t know if it was more of a culture shock or my anxiety when I experience something new or getting out of my comfort zone that made me a little nervous while I was there. But compared to where I live, I can actually walk around at night in Korea and not feel scared like I do when I just take the trash can down to the end of the driveway at my house. When I was in Korea, I went to Daegu for the day to visit friends who live there and when I got back, it was dark and after 11pm by the time I got back to my hotel from the train station. Just walked to the bus stop, got on the bus, and went back to my hotel. Didn’t feel scared.
@@CariW90the commenter was just warning you because, unfortunately, it’s true. You must be careful, everywhere in the world, of course, but there are certain things you must be aware of. Never take a drink from someone at a club, or leave it unattended. This is the way many of the SA’s occur. Also, if you have anxiety and depression, you must take into account that Koreans may be polite, but don’t easily make friends with foreigners. They’re not very much in touch with their feelings or emotions, in many cases, which is why they have an unusual drinking culture; it appears this is their only way to open up, which is unfortunate. However, there are more and more foreigners from all over arriving, and Koreans who have lived abroad, are different, of course. You can probably make a nice community with all those folks, and, of course, there are always exceptions amongst the locals. I was raised and lived all over the world, so…I do recommend it! It’s a gift to one’s mind and soul to go live in entirely different cultures; it stretches the brain, like nothing else can. Going first for two months is a great idea! You can get a good feel in that amount of time. It’s good to not romanticize anyplace, but, who knows? You might fit right in. And, feeling safe is a very big deal; I could not agree more! Good luck!😊🫶🏻
@@ot7stan207 That's a hallmark of socially liberal policies focused on rehabilitation. As compared to the US, SK has a recidivism rate of ~5% for SA related crimes, the US on the other hand is ~30%. The US is also literally dead last when it comes to criminal rehabilitation/recidivism on top of having nearly double the crime rate of SK (49.2 crime index vs 25.3 crime index). The US is one of the worst "1st world" crime countries actually, and that's despite sucking up all the resources from other countries/ruining them.
Ironically for a country (the USA) who’s always harping on about being the most free country in the world, so many Americans feel freer in South Korea. America’s lack of public transport was one of the stupidest things they ever allowed to happen.
Yeah. Granted, the country is HUGE, but I can't really see the reason for not having good PTS in any major cities. You don't always need subways to have good PTS. Check out any number of European cities. C'mon, America!
They didn’t say more free. They said more safe. Chinese people can feel safe and have less “freedom” then Americans. There’s a difference and it’s down to the individual what they prefer.

Had the beautiful opportunity to visit Seoul for 10 days in 2019 and my husband and I loved it so much we didn’t want to leave. We both love Korean food, culture and it was so clean and inexpensive and the people are so nice
Hi! These are two students who took pictures together last time and asked if they were doing UA-cam! Thank you so much for answering so kindly when we asked!! I will also watch the video uploaded today!!
I noticed the happiest foreigners are the ones who dont have a "normal job" like influencers, models etc I want to hear what a foreigner feels about the insane workplace politics and the lack of free time
@mariasol1545 Yes! I wanna hear from someone who isn't working one of those dream jobs and who isn't a college kid. I work in the pharmaceutical business. I have no intention of moving to Korea as the USA is my home, and I'm never leaving. But I would like to hear how someone in my field, or something similar, feels how it's like working in Korea. Is it super busy with no free time? Is it harder to get a job in that field because you're not Korean?
Interesting when I hear foreigners who live in Korea say how they love Korea because it’s safe, clean, people are respectful and the quality of life. It’s because Korea is a conservative country that respects and values people. korean people work hard for the all the convenience you are getting living there.
La Calle in Sindang market right outside of the station! Authentic al-pastor tacos for my LA brother! I also miss Mexican food when I'm in Korea but I found this place this year.
Interesting discussion, although very one sided comment section. I noticed the channel owner deletes all comments he disagrees with. Seems like he's just pushing propaganda.
@stephen5276 if he is really doing that he is not being fair to everyone who is giving their true opinions on the topic of the day. Everyone should be heard whether you agree with what they had to say or not.
None of them mentioned it, but the healthcare is wayyyyyyyy better in Korea than the United States. It’s way more accessible and wayyyy more affordable
26:25 And actually some U.S. soldiers make troubles in Korea and have tarnished Americans' images in Korea. (similar to somali's case) There were some big issues like Yangju highway incident, forced prostitution and more, So people in Korea are very sensitive to the crimes of the U.S. solders. Other than those issues, most Koreans are always grateful to Americans coming to Korea because of the participation of United States in the Korean war
캐나다에서 태어났지만 평생을 한국에서 살아왔고 부모님 두분도 한국인입니다. 요즘 직업문제로 해외취업은 어떤지 궁금해졌고 문득 한국에 거주중인 외국인들은 어떻게 생각하고 있는지도 궁금해져 검색하다가 흘러들어왔네요 친하게 지내는 외국인이 주변에 있는것도 아니고 친해질 방법도 모르는데 덕분에 다양한분들의 관점에서 좋은내용들을 들을수있어서 좋았습니다 👍
I love this channel! I was introduced to Korean culture via friends and K-pop. Right away I wanted to start learning the language, so I could better understand and follow along. I've got a long way to go, but I'm excited about having a long-term learning project. What's irritating is when my friends readily "remind" me, it's not a K-drama, I won't fit in, it's a patriarchal structure, Korean men aren't all soft and romantic, etc... I BLEEPING KNOW! But there wasn't so much discouragement when I traveled to and entertained fantasies about living in European countries. There's good and bad people everywhere, and just because I admire a country and culture for something doesn't mean I agree with every single thing. I always try to be on my best unofficial ambassador when I travel, because I am a guest in that country. I love that this content shows the whole picture and isn't afraid to ask some of the uncomfortable questions. Very inspiring! Keep up the good work 🙂
"Patriarchal in Korea" in western creations is described like some kind of war crime described in a web novel... It was rather like peer pressure, (and) is now considered as legal crime.
It's not just Koreans that think Americans are loud - many people around the world think that including some Africans. I love Americans, but they are not know for being subtle. The vlogger...think his name is Pedro said Americans can be quite sensitive. You are 100% right - the lawsuit threat is excessive, hence the famous McDonalds coffee case.
As a Korean-American and agnostic of the fact that not all Korean-Americans are a monolith (some Korean-Americans are resolutely "American" in the sense that the U.S. is the only country they've ever known and others may be more in touch with their Korean history, language, and culture, etc.), I've had the privilege of being born and raised in America but still visiting/living in Korea often enough to see how its society has grown and evolved. This might be triggering for some folks, especially Americans as foreigners in Korea, but I feel that many Americans prefer Korea because of the degree of exceptionalism they feel in Korea that they don't necessarily feel in America, and that's partially because they are outsiders and somewhat excluded from Korean social norms and expectations. I think this is the X factor that not many people speak of because it's too honest but I'm noticing more and more that Americans preferring to live or be in Korea is not so much an issue of country as it is of identity.
Many things the interviewees commented on have nothing to do with being exempted from Korean expectations. I feel like your comment has an ounce too much of your own viewpoints mixed in.
I believe people downplay the importance of culture when it comes to safety; I live in Italy and you can't freely own a gun here yet safety is still quite a problem especially in big cities; I really hope that newcomers in Korea pay their due respect to the culture and how that shapes koreans' mentality also towards crime.
I'm sensing a very interesting dynamic. Native English speakers are valuable in Korea whether due to their connection to America or just because they can teach English with very few qualifications which implies that many Koreans are looking to leave and go to America. Yet at the same time Americans are having a grand old time moving to Korea which means the quality of life there is great, provided you come from a country with far more resources.
Not necessarily for move to US. English is must school language program and order to get into good Uni in Korea your english level should be high. Like very high
@@jblee7592 Βut if the standard in Korea is to speak English at a very high level, why would they need to get native speakers from other countries so badly? Shouldn't English literature be the number one degree with thousands of Korean English teachers doing the job? In most countries the natives teach foreign languages, having studied them much deeper than a simple native speaker.
@@ioannispaxinos5171 it's an issue of credibility/marketing - even though some koreans can speak as good as native speakers, it won't sell if u hire koreans as english teacher in schools/academies
In Sweden it’s not normal to approach a stranger, randomly talk to them and ask about their day or stuff. It would be considered weird like I don’t know you, what do this person want, let me be.
As korean born living in virginia i’m not surprised how well they are living. They work to live and i can see how life would be different in korea but competition is tough in korea from education to getting good jobs. If you learn the language they will accept you. My cousin still lives there and i can say most of them do speak english. Korea have changed for better and they will evolve around north korea politically so life wont be affected. Cost of living is stable and healthcare system is better. I would retire in Korea or Japan if time is right. Kudos for them.
This is very interesting. I lived outside the US for ten months and I returned to America a few months ago. While I'm not sure I'd live overseas again for a while, it has definitely piqued my interest in traveling and I'm leaving the country again in a month to visit East Asia for two weeks. I really think more Americans should live abroad and know what life is like in other countries.
Part of my family are native Koreans, I've only met them a few times but a few years ago i stayed awhile in Korea and really enjoyed it so I plan on moving to Korea or Japan to be closer to them in a few years. I say or Japan because I don't plan on living in the big city so Japan's rural cost of living is insanely cheap with the Akiya system and would at least put me closer to Korea than living in the U.S. it's kind of odd that Korea's population is drastically declining but the information on rural living and housing is way harder to find than that of Japan's. The one guy bringing up the App thing being different in Korea is real lol last time i was there my cousin asked me what music i like so i went to show and let him play my Spotify playlist but it didn't work in Korea lol also my cousin told me i should use the Bumble App when i was in Korea to talk to people in Korea and i was like isn't that a dating app and she was like no no people here use it for friends also that was weird to me lol.
My friend... you should ask these younger Americans what socio-economic, cultural background their from. Americans have a tendency to induce or impel their culture onto other nations, but simultaneously insult their homeland. The blonde girl from NC talking about how American Military people are disrespectful, is an example. American soldiers made great sacrifices during the Korean War ( 1950 - 1953 ), which ultimately prevented North Korea from winning and taking control of South Korea. Our military presence there, is to help keep South Korea safe and free. They ( US Military), are not there as tourists.
And yes... Korea or South Korea is much safer than the states because of its strict gun laws. Civilians are not allowed to carry or possess weapons. That's definitely why the American women feel safer. BuT the woman from the Chicago area, stating "I'm definitely not going back until the next election" sounds a bit sanctimonious. She chooses to ignore that the US presence in Korea helps keep it a free democracy. You may want to keep any political rhetoric out. Best to ask why they are there and how they managed their opportunity to get there; what they do to afford to stay there... aside from modeling. 😆
most of these expats are new so they don’t know yet but the biggest problems for expat are adapting to culture and language aswell as accepting locals aren’t too open to foreigners who want to actually live there not just visiting
i think the more foreigners come to korea the expat community get bigger. benefitting both good safe convenient environment and expat community to help in times of loneliness.
Interesting perspectives. However, many of the individuals featured seem to be young and haven’t been in the country long enough to move beyond the 'honeymoon phase,' so to speak. Korea is undeniably a great country with much to offer... But for many foreigners, the initial magic tends to fade after a year or two as practical challenges arise. Issues like finances, visas, job opportunities, and real estate can become significant hurdles. That said, everyone's experience is different, and I wish nothing but the best for them.
So real the biggest problem for expat is adapting to culture and language aswell as accepting locals aren’t too open to foreigners who want to actually live there not just visiting
How did you find Americans who are so well spoken and articulate! Great interviews and insights! (Not to say Americans are not well spoken but this group was particularly fantastic)
The average American isn’t a resident of ny or l.a major cities in the u.s are experiencing their downfall and middle tier cities are experiencing growth so the people who are running away from it move to middle tier cities or abroad to escape and the people who don’t leave want to keep their major city conveniences like more things to do or buy so they keep living their

I think he doesn't know much because he hasn't lived in Korea for long. Korea does have an animation industry, but it's quite small, so there aren't many job opportunities for foreigners in that field. If he wants a career in animation, the U.S. or Japan would be better options.
@@unknown5624if u watched what I said I want to create the jobs here, I want to create a market for Korean animation , I don’t wish to work for a studio here because they only are outsourced to rather than making shows for korea
@@unknown5624They produce a lot of animes.. The only but fatal aspect is they are all outsourced as another commented above. But the industry is definitely rising and there are easier job opportunities.
People let politics control their lives way too much. More specifically, the president. It honestly doesn’t matter, all politics is local. If you have a problem, you’d get more progress from your local government than the president. It ain’t that serious.
Gosh, all these Americans are really good-looking! 😂😂🤷♂️ Are they all like that, or is it only the attractive ones that travel to Korea?? Thanks for the longer length video Jerry, I really enjoyed it 🙏
In Korea, we think not only women but also men should take care of themselves. Many foreign men say that after coming to Korea, they started taking care of their skin and paying attention to their appearance for the first time. I think this could be the reason😂 Also, Seoul has many steep areas, so there’s a lot of walking involved, and Korean food is less greasy and fresher compared to American food!
@ I have become accustomed to all Koreans being beautiful (men and women), but was just surprised that all the Americans were too 😂😂 Thank you so much for your reply - I think you must be right, Korean habits are rubbing off on the Americans 😂💜
Korea is cool, but since I live in NYC, I can't think of the benefits of transitioning there long term. Especially with the issues they have over there
Given the population crisis in korea with lowest birthrate in the world, it would be interesting to see how foreign married couples are dealing with raising children in Korea. How surprising that Americans feel cost of living in Korea is so reasonable. This seems possible with singles or just two couples but once you have a child - the resource deficit is big.
I think it's probably easy to find liberal Americans in Seoul, or any city. Nothing surprising about what they said about America. The most interesting part was how much it "costed" to move there. I would love for you to go out into rural South Korea and talk to some folks, whoever they may be. That would interest me more.
exactly they don’t realize the wage gap between foreigners and average Koreans they don’t know what a goshiwon or basement apartments that average Koreans live in
Hi K Explorer I’d like to suggest a topic for your platform regarding the use of funeral wreaths as protest symbols in South Korea, particularly in the case of Seunghan from RIIZE. Seunghan was the target of a disturbing incident where nearly 1000 funeral wreaths were sent to him. While we know funeral wreaths are sometimes used for protests in South Korea, in this case, the wreaths were directed at an individual with harmful intentions, crossing into psychological harassment. Given your focus on cultural and societal issues, could you help us by conducting a street interview asking the public whether they believe sending funeral wreaths to a specific individual can ever be justified as protest, or if it crosses the line into harassment? We think a conversation around this would be valuable for your audience. Your platform has the ability to shed light on this important issue, and we’d greatly appreciate your help in raising awareness by gathering public opinion. Thank you for considering this suggestion!

I think she meant that because it’s so big, everything is far. Canada is close if you live in northern US states. Mexico is far from there. Mexico is close if you are in the south. Even from west coast to east coast, you have to ride a plane for 6 hours. In Europe or Asia, it’s very easy to visit another country.
To the point of the man wanting to have kids and not put them through school in Korea, I sure hope he doesn't want them schooled in America either because the schools are NOT safe and I would never want to have a child in American school because of all the shootings.
Either that or have the child feel insecure about looking a little different. Plus the extra schools in Korea are a bit much. The whole system is geared towards passing exams and less creativity. I guess it depends on his priorities.
@nathanielmills4678 bullying exists in American schools just as much as it does in Korean ones, at least I would know the odds of my child being murdered by a classmate would be much lower. Admittedly I do have a strong opinion, a woman just ran for Congress in my mom's district who lost a child to a school shooting and we lost several cousins to a non-school mass shooting; I would take a country with no guns any day.
Yes I agree with you there. In the UK I don't have to worry about if my child will come home after school. We had a mass shooting (Dunblane massacre) so gun controlled was tightened up. Schools in the UK and US however have a problem with child behaviour and respect which is why my daughter is going to a selective (grammar) school where a test must be passed to attend. On the whole they worlds apart from non selective and children are very well behaved and respectful. I don't know enough about that aspect of Korean schools.
Depends where you go to school. There are many schools that are very safe. It all depends on the neighborhood and what kind of kids are attending. Threat of school shootings is grossly overblown. When they happen they get a lot of attention nationwide. But a study was done that showed the chances of a child dying from a school shooting in the US is 1 in 10 million. Just for reference the chance of getting hit by lightning in your lifetime is 1 in 15,000.
As the native korean, every time I see so many foreigners especially caucacians from US or Europe, they tend to get an attention easily as White Privilege in Korea regardless of their qualification for job. Maybe women interviewees seem to be foreigner models and I am just wondering whether they can say yes easily about living in Korea next year. On the other contrary, what if asian guy as korean want to try to live in US for job seeking? Is it possible to get an attention easily as Korean Privilege in western society without Kpop Kdrama background
As a Korean, I wish people would stop talking about white privilege. It is disrespectful to them. Life as a foreigner in Korea is not easy for them either. They need to be sponsored to work and unless they are an English teacher or a model, they usually need to know Korean to get other job opportunities. On the other hand, foreigners who work in physical labor fields, which make up the majority of foreign labor in Korea, can get jobs even if they don't know Korean. Westerners from the first world don't work in such physical labor fields in Korea. Outside of physical labor fields, it is not easy for foreigners to get job opportunities in Korea. And they didn't say life in Korea is easy at all. English teacher jobs in Korea pay less than foreigners working in physical labor fields and the modeling field is saturated, so there is not much money to be made.
If a beautiful woman gets modeling job in korea because of her beauty what is the problem? The children of these women and their korean husbands will also be beautiful
it’s pretty different most Koreans live in apartments and if you live in the city your poor you’ll be forced to live in a tiny room (goshiwon often 150sqft and under) or live underground often in basement apartments

They’re not very much in touch with their feelings or emotions, in many cases, which is why they have an unusual drinking culture; it appears this is their only way to open up, which is unfortunate.
However, there are more and more foreigners from all over arriving, and Koreans who have lived abroad, are different, of course. You can probably make a nice community with all those folks, and, of course, there are always exceptions amongst the locals.
I was raised and lived all over the world, so…I do recommend it! It’s a gift to one’s mind and soul to go live in entirely different cultures; it stretches the brain, like nothing else can. Going first for two months is a great idea! You can get a good feel in that amount of time. It’s good to not romanticize anyplace, but, who knows? You might fit right in. And, feeling safe is a very big deal; I could not agree more!
Good luck!😊🫶🏻
@@ot7stan207 That's a hallmark of socially liberal policies focused on rehabilitation. As compared to the US, SK has a recidivism rate of ~5% for SA related crimes, the US on the other hand is ~30%. The US is also literally dead last when it comes to criminal rehabilitation/recidivism on top of having nearly double the crime rate of SK (49.2 crime index vs 25.3 crime index). The US is one of the worst "1st world" crime countries actually, and that's despite sucking up all the resources from other countries/ruining them.
Ironically for a country (the USA) who’s always harping on about being the most free country in the world, so many Americans feel freer in South Korea. America’s lack of public transport was one of the stupidest things they ever allowed to happen.
Yeah. Granted, the country is HUGE, but I can't really see the reason for not having good PTS in any major cities. You don't always need subways to have good PTS. Check out any number of European cities. C'mon, America!
They didn’t say more free. They said more safe. Chinese people can feel safe and have less “freedom” then Americans. There’s a difference and it’s down to the individual what they prefer.

Had the beautiful opportunity to visit Seoul for 10 days in 2019 and my husband and I loved it so much we didn’t want to leave. We both love Korean food, culture and it was so clean and inexpensive and the people are so nice
Hi! These are two students who took pictures together last time and asked if they were doing UA-cam! Thank you so much for answering so kindly when we asked!! I will also watch the video uploaded today!!
This content is getting better and better. Keep going
I noticed the happiest foreigners are the ones who dont have a "normal job" like influencers, models etc
I want to hear what a foreigner feels about the insane workplace politics and the lack of free time
@mariasol1545 Yes! I wanna hear from someone who isn't working one of those dream jobs and who isn't a college kid. I work in the pharmaceutical business. I have no intention of moving to Korea as the USA is my home, and I'm never leaving. But I would like to hear how someone in my field, or something similar, feels how it's like working in Korea. Is it super busy with no free time? Is it harder to get a job in that field because you're not Korean?

카메라 영상이 참 좋습니다. 조명, 색감, 심도가 많이 보던 유튜브 인터뷰랑 확연히 다르네요.
This channel deserves at least few million subscribers❤ so helpful with both casual or in-depth
Interesting when I hear foreigners who live in Korea say how they love Korea because it’s safe, clean, people are respectful and the quality of life. It’s because Korea is a conservative country that respects and values people. korean people work hard for the all the convenience you are getting living there.
And also a lack of .... certain people of certain darker skin complexions but everybody wants to lie to themselves and pretend it's not a factor 😂😂
@@shivablaster4825 I don't get it. It's East Asia. Do you also complain about not having more Asians in Africa, too?
I value America but once you travel, you realize that each country has its own personality and you can find one suited better to your own.
I really enjoyed watching in-depth interviews!
La Calle in Sindang market right outside of the station! Authentic al-pastor tacos for my LA brother! I also miss Mexican food when I'm in Korea but I found this place this year.
Always good and interesting discussions. Keep up the good work.
Interesting discussion, although very one sided comment section. I noticed the channel owner deletes all comments he disagrees with. Seems like he's just pushing propaganda.
@stephen5276 if he is really doing that he is not being fair to everyone who is giving their true opinions on the topic of the day. Everyone should be heard whether you agree with what they had to say or not.

None of them mentioned it, but the healthcare is wayyyyyyyy better in Korea than the United States. It’s way more accessible and wayyyy more affordable
The gentlemen at 1:45 very well spoken! That’s family man right there!!
26:25 And actually some U.S. soldiers make troubles in Korea and have tarnished Americans' images in Korea. (similar to somali's case)
There were some big issues like Yangju highway incident, forced prostitution and more, So people in Korea are very sensitive to the crimes of the U.S. solders.
Other than those issues, most Koreans are always grateful to Americans coming to Korea because of the participation of United States in the Korean war

❤ High quality content, as usual, Jerry! Thank you again! - Korean American nuna from Southern California ❤️🌸🌸🌸
The foreigners in Korea keeps rising and rising and my gosh that first girl, n she been in Korea for 5 years and thumbnail keep them coming
Nice interview
Fur jacket girl have same tone and demeanour when she speaks both English and Korean very fascinating.
I love this channel! I was introduced to Korean culture via friends and K-pop. Right away I wanted to start learning the language, so I could better understand and follow along. I've got a long way to go, but I'm excited about having a long-term learning project.
What's irritating is when my friends readily "remind" me, it's not a K-drama, I won't fit in, it's a patriarchal structure, Korean men aren't all soft and romantic, etc... I BLEEPING KNOW! But there wasn't so much discouragement when I traveled to and entertained fantasies about living in European countries.
There's good and bad people everywhere, and just because I admire a country and culture for something doesn't mean I agree with every single thing. I always try to be on my best unofficial ambassador when I travel, because I am a guest in that country.
I love that this content shows the whole picture and isn't afraid to ask some of the uncomfortable questions. Very inspiring! Keep up the good work 🙂
"Patriarchal in Korea" in western creations is described like some kind of war crime described in a web novel...
It was rather like peer pressure, (and) is now considered as legal crime.
It's not just Koreans that think Americans are loud - many people around the world think that including some Africans. I love Americans, but they are not know for being subtle. The vlogger...think his name is Pedro said Americans can be quite sensitive. You are 100% right - the lawsuit threat is excessive, hence the famous McDonalds coffee case.
yup tons of personal freedoms but also too man safety laws
Thanks for the interview bro I enjoyed it
This must have been a lot of work to set up this fantastic video and like your videos more and more!

i'm korean it's really useful to study for english !!
As a Korean-American and agnostic of the fact that not all Korean-Americans are a monolith (some Korean-Americans are resolutely "American" in the sense that the U.S. is the only country they've ever known and others may be more in touch with their Korean history, language, and culture, etc.), I've had the privilege of being born and raised in America but still visiting/living in Korea often enough to see how its society has grown and evolved. This might be triggering for some folks, especially Americans as foreigners in Korea, but I feel that many Americans prefer Korea because of the degree of exceptionalism they feel in Korea that they don't necessarily feel in America, and that's partially because they are outsiders and somewhat excluded from Korean social norms and expectations. I think this is the X factor that not many people speak of because it's too honest but I'm noticing more and more that Americans preferring to live or be in Korea is not so much an issue of country as it is of identity.
Many things the interviewees commented on have nothing to do with being exempted from Korean expectations. I feel like your comment has an ounce too much of your own viewpoints mixed in.
I believe people downplay the importance of culture when it comes to safety; I live in Italy and you can't freely own a gun here yet safety is still quite a problem especially in big cities; I really hope that newcomers in Korea pay their due respect to the culture and how that shapes koreans' mentality also towards crime.
I'm sensing a very interesting dynamic. Native English speakers are valuable in Korea whether due to their connection to America or just because they can teach English with very few qualifications which implies that many Koreans are looking to leave and go to America. Yet at the same time Americans are having a grand old time moving to Korea which means the quality of life there is great, provided you come from a country with far more resources.
Not necessarily for move to US. English is must school language program and order to get into good Uni in Korea your english level should be high. Like very high
@@jblee7592 Βut if the standard in Korea is to speak English at a very high level, why would they need to get native speakers from other countries so badly? Shouldn't English literature be the number one degree with thousands of Korean English teachers doing the job? In most countries the natives teach foreign languages, having studied them much deeper than a simple native speaker.
@@ioannispaxinos5171 it's an issue of credibility/marketing - even though some koreans can speak as good as native speakers, it won't sell if u hire koreans as english teacher in schools/academies
In Sweden it’s not normal to approach a stranger, randomly talk to them and ask about their day or stuff. It would be considered weird like I don’t know you, what do this person want, let me be.

@@FrostbitexP i did
As korean born living in virginia i’m not surprised how well they are living. They work to live and i can see how life would be different in korea but competition is tough in korea from education to getting good jobs. If you learn the language they will accept you. My cousin still lives there and i can say most of them do speak english. Korea have changed for better and they will evolve around north korea politically so life wont be affected. Cost of living is stable and healthcare system is better. I would retire in Korea or Japan if time is right. Kudos for them.
Really great video. The editing was very well done. Great questions and content as always ❤
This is very interesting. I lived outside the US for ten months and I returned to America a few months ago. While I'm not sure I'd live overseas again for a while, it has definitely piqued my interest in traveling and I'm leaving the country again in a month to visit East Asia for two weeks. I really think more Americans should live abroad and know what life is like in other countries.
I am from Philadelphia but I have been living in Busan for the past year and I love it here in S.Korea but I will be going back to Los Angeles soon.
Going to Los Angeles live or visit?
Part of my family are native Koreans, I've only met them a few times but a few years ago i stayed awhile in Korea and really enjoyed it so I plan on moving to Korea or Japan to be closer to them in a few years. I say or Japan because I don't plan on living in the big city so Japan's rural cost of living is insanely cheap with the Akiya system and would at least put me closer to Korea than living in the U.S. it's kind of odd that Korea's population is drastically declining but the information on rural living and housing is way harder to find than that of Japan's. The one guy bringing up the App thing being different in Korea is real lol last time i was there my cousin asked me what music i like so i went to show and let him play my Spotify playlist but it didn't work in Korea lol also my cousin told me i should use the Bumble App when i was in Korea to talk to people in Korea and i was like isn't that a dating app and she was like no no people here use it for friends also that was weird to me lol.
JERRY IS SO HANDSOME
My friend... you should ask these younger Americans what socio-economic, cultural background their from. Americans have a tendency to induce or impel their culture onto other nations, but simultaneously insult their homeland. The blonde girl from NC talking about how American Military people are disrespectful, is an example. American soldiers made great sacrifices during the Korean War ( 1950 - 1953 ), which ultimately prevented North Korea from winning and taking control of South Korea. Our military presence there, is to help keep South Korea safe and free. They ( US Military), are not there as tourists.
And yes... Korea or South Korea is much safer than the states because of its strict gun laws. Civilians are not allowed to carry or possess weapons. That's definitely why the American women feel safer. BuT the woman from the Chicago area, stating "I'm definitely not going back until the next election" sounds a bit sanctimonious. She chooses to ignore that the US presence in Korea helps keep it a free democracy. You may want to keep any political rhetoric out. Best to ask why they are there and how they managed their opportunity to get there; what they do to afford to stay there... aside from modeling. 😆
Keep up the great work Jerry! Love these videos 🎉😊
most of these expats are new so they don’t know yet but the biggest problems for expat are adapting to culture and language aswell as accepting locals aren’t too open to foreigners who want to actually live there not just visiting
i think the more foreigners come to korea the expat community get bigger. benefitting both good safe convenient environment and expat community to help in times of loneliness.

Interesting perspectives. However, many of the individuals featured seem to be young and haven’t been in the country long enough to move beyond the 'honeymoon phase,' so to speak. Korea is undeniably a great country with much to offer... But for many foreigners, the initial magic tends to fade after a year or two as practical challenges arise. Issues like finances, visas, job opportunities, and real estate can become significant hurdles. That said, everyone's experience is different, and I wish nothing but the best for them.
So real the biggest problem for expat is adapting to culture and language aswell as accepting locals aren’t too open to foreigners who want to actually live there not just visiting
How did you find Americans who are so well spoken and articulate! Great interviews and insights! (Not to say Americans are not well spoken but this group was particularly fantastic)
The average American isn’t a resident of ny or l.a major cities in the u.s are experiencing their downfall and middle tier cities are experiencing growth so the people who are running away from it move to middle tier cities or abroad to escape and the people who don’t leave want to keep their major city conveniences like more things to do or buy so they keep living their

didnt know Korea animated so many bangers
I think he doesn't know much because he hasn't lived in Korea for long. Korea does have an animation industry, but it's quite small, so there aren't many job opportunities for foreigners in that field. If he wants a career in animation, the U.S. or Japan would be better options.
@@unknown5624if u watched what I said I want to create the jobs here, I want to create a market for Korean animation , I don’t wish to work for a studio here because they only are outsourced to rather than making shows for korea

@ I guess that makes sense 🤷♂️😂
In Korea, we think not only women but also men should take care of themselves. Many foreign men say that after coming to Korea, they started taking care of their skin and paying attention to their appearance for the first time. I think this could be the reason😂 Also, Seoul has many steep areas, so there’s a lot of walking involved, and Korean food is less greasy and fresher compared to American food!
@ I have become accustomed to all Koreans being beautiful (men and women), but was just surprised that all the Americans were too 😂😂 Thank you so much for your reply - I think you must be right, Korean habits are rubbing off on the Americans 😂💜

The talks about how calm Korean policies are compared to American aged like milk 😂
Given the population crisis in korea with lowest birthrate in the world, it would be interesting to see how foreign married couples are dealing with raising children in Korea. How surprising that Americans feel cost of living in Korea is so reasonable. This seems possible with singles or just two couples but once you have a child - the resource deficit is big.
The fact this video got on my recommendation when the martial law took place lmao
I think it's probably easy to find liberal Americans in Seoul, or any city. Nothing surprising about what they said about America. The most interesting part was how much it "costed" to move there. I would love for you to go out into rural South Korea and talk to some folks, whoever they may be. That would interest me more.
I would also like to hear the perspectives of residents of rural South Korea.
yeah probably most conservative americans live in the US because they are conservative, right? not sure it it makes sense. lol

Hi K Explorer
I’d like to suggest a topic for your platform regarding the use of funeral wreaths as protest symbols in South Korea, particularly in the case of Seunghan from RIIZE.
Seunghan was the target of a disturbing incident where nearly 1000 funeral wreaths were sent to him. While we know funeral wreaths are sometimes used for protests in South Korea, in this case, the wreaths were directed at an individual with harmful intentions, crossing into psychological harassment.
Given your focus on cultural and societal issues, could you help us by conducting a street interview asking the public whether they believe sending funeral wreaths to a specific individual can ever be justified as protest, or if it crosses the line into harassment? We think a conversation around this would be valuable for your audience.
Your platform has the ability to shed light on this important issue, and we’d greatly appreciate your help in raising awareness by gathering public opinion.
Thank you for considering this suggestion!

Her: "States is so big but far away from everything else "
Did Canada, Mexico, the Caribbean and South America move?
I think she meant that because it’s so big, everything is far. Canada is close if you live in northern US states. Mexico is far from there. Mexico is close if you are in the south. Even from west coast to east coast, you have to ride a plane for 6 hours. In Europe or Asia, it’s very easy to visit another country.

Hi Jerry, how do you get these guests to interview? Do you reach out to them by yourself?
To the point of the man wanting to have kids and not put them through school in Korea, I sure hope he doesn't want them schooled in America either because the schools are NOT safe and I would never want to have a child in American school because of all the shootings.
Either that or have the child feel insecure about looking a little different. Plus the extra schools in Korea are a bit much. The whole system is geared towards passing exams and less creativity. I guess it depends on his priorities.
@nathanielmills4678 bullying exists in American schools just as much as it does in Korean ones, at least I would know the odds of my child being murdered by a classmate would be much lower.
Admittedly I do have a strong opinion, a woman just ran for Congress in my mom's district who lost a child to a school shooting and we lost several cousins to a non-school mass shooting; I would take a country with no guns any day.
Yes I agree with you there. In the UK I don't have to worry about if my child will come home after school. We had a mass shooting (Dunblane massacre) so gun controlled was tightened up.
Schools in the UK and US however have a problem with child behaviour and respect which is why my daughter is going to a selective (grammar) school where a test must be passed to attend. On the whole they worlds apart from non selective and children are very well behaved and respectful. I don't know enough about that aspect of Korean schools.
Depends where you go to school. There are many schools that are very safe. It all depends on the neighborhood and what kind of kids are attending. Threat of school shootings is grossly overblown. When they happen they get a lot of attention nationwide. But a study was done that showed the chances of a child dying from a school shooting in the US is 1 in 10 million. Just for reference the chance of getting hit by lightning in your lifetime is 1 in 15,000.
I would like to see an interview with people who have disabilities living in Korea.

*Martial Law has entered the chat*
*Martial Law has left the chat*
That one black interviewee said he makes a new friend evey day in NY? He aint from NY. People are not hospitalble here😂😂😂
As the native korean, every time I see so many foreigners especially caucacians from US or Europe, they tend to get an attention easily as White Privilege in Korea regardless of their qualification for job. Maybe women interviewees seem to be foreigner models and I am just wondering whether they can say yes easily about living in Korea next year.
On the other contrary, what if asian guy as korean want to try to live in US for job seeking? Is it possible to get an attention easily as Korean Privilege in western society without Kpop Kdrama background
As a Korean, I wish people would stop talking about white privilege. It is disrespectful to them. Life as a foreigner in Korea is not easy for them either. They need to be sponsored to work and unless they are an English teacher or a model, they usually need to know Korean to get other job opportunities. On the other hand, foreigners who work in physical labor fields, which make up the majority of foreign labor in Korea, can get jobs even if they don't know Korean. Westerners from the first world don't work in such physical labor fields in Korea. Outside of physical labor fields, it is not easy for foreigners to get job opportunities in Korea. And they didn't say life in Korea is easy at all. English teacher jobs in Korea pay less than foreigners working in physical labor fields and the modeling field is saturated, so there is not much money to be made.
If a beautiful woman gets modeling job in korea because of her beauty what is the problem?
The children of these women and their korean husbands will also be beautiful
The red head is so pretty.
Some of the girls you interviewed are absolutely beautiful 😍 🤩 👌
8:43 where did you buy that blue jacket bro ? It’s dope
If you do a "beautiful women" video again, you should ask them if they use filters on their pictures/videos and why.
can you do a korean house tour?? 10k+ homes vs 100k+ in Us must be a similar but bigger difference
it’s pretty different most Koreans live in apartments and if you live in the city your poor you’ll be forced to live in a tiny room (goshiwon often 150sqft and under) or live underground often in basement apartments
If you have money you can live good wherever you want.
I hope to run into you when I'm in Korea. I'd love an interview!😂
