- ...or a beginning of something new!
Thank you so much to everyone who has followed this saga. I would have never been able to foresee back in December what I was signing myself up to. There's definitely been ups and downs, but all valuable life experience nonetheless and I am grateful for its lessons.
Reservations until the end of September are open now.

It's actually a bit weird. Opening day was the day I was dreading the most because of all the pressures and anxiety but now that it's over, it's bittersweet. After all that has happened, I expected myself to be resentful and regretful, but I now feel an even stronger sense of emotional bond to this project like I never had before. Again, thank you so much to those who have followed these series, and for those who are visiting mijaseoul in flesh, I'll see you soon!
So proud of you!! I’ve watched your videos from the very beginning and I have to say you’re one of my role models. I love how no matter how scary or difficult it is to commit to what you do, you do it anyway. Even when you’re not sure. Even when you’re family isn’t sure. That takes a kind of strength and willpower most people don’t have. Since your 2022 recap video you’ve made me want to be a better version of myself. I guess I’m saying all this to say thank you for deciding to create content when you were looking for a job out of college. You’ve moved so many people and I cannot wait to see what the next chapter holds for you and umbrella man. Love ya doobs
I’m so proud of you .
I am watching your videos since you were in London ❤ cheer up we are here to support you. Love you and
so proud of you 😢😊
Congrats on the opening and may business be blooming 👍
Congrats from Chicago Tina! I hope one day I can patronize your business. Good luck.
Congratulations on your opening!! I want to go to Korea to visit your restaurant! Good luck to you and your team, and take care of yourself sometimes❤️
I LOVE THE WAY SUTAN SAYS SRIWMP 🤍🤍
As a kimonoko AND a dooby, this is the video collaboration I have been waiting for!!! 🥺🫶🏻 I hope this happens waahhhh
TAKE SUTAN TOO
Waahhh as a kimonoko and a dooby, im looking forward to this!
omggg kimono mom!! ❤❤
Truly love that "No Tina No Cry" moment, with loved ones smiling and singing and celebrating. Gave me the feels 🙂
Same 🥹
Even Marley is smiling. 🎸😬
Kevin is born to be a chef. What a legend. He brings that above and beyond class feel to the restaurant. Before this video we never got to see him in his element. Mans is goated.
I may be mistaken, but there is no content like this on UA-cam, it is unique. The entirety of this journey has amazing to watch.
I literally started crying when she did, I'm so happy for her. she deserves the world
Not sure of trusting her with the world.... But she pretty cool.
@@MmentoMori you should trust me with the world. 😎
That’s so gay
Me too
A round of applause for Kevin, the jack of all trades and culinary backbone to mijaseoul. Thank you for helping Tina bring her vision to life. What a beautiful partnership between you two. Congratulations and best of luck at your grand opening!
I got pretty emotional when I saw Kevin dressed in the chef suit but then bawled when Tina was happy crying. The happiness of the success is contagious! Huge congratulations 😭❤️❤️
Me tooo! 😭👌💙💙💙
she got me too
me too!!
Saaame 😭 Tina’s vlogs were very helpful to me in the pandemic so I felt a lot of relief seeing her this realized and proud of Kevin as well
They are a great power couple on UA-cam and the potential for vlogs is unlimited.
Kevin took the criticism like a champ and it seems all your hard work FINALLY paid off, Tina! Well done!
204 likes and no comments lemme fix dat
She mentioned he was stressed out, but the support that they show for each other is incredibly inspiring. 😊
Kevin is the best! He obviously shines just as much as dooby with his culinary skills. Thanks Kevin !
@@alexburt5984bruh kevin is a joke
@@uwu.-.5873 horny for attention
I've been a silent dooby for the past two years but this video makes me so happy, to see you succed with your friends and family is really moving! All best wishes for the future.
Seeing your parents attend made my heart so happy. I can't wait to visit Seoul someday and support you in person.
Kevin is a beast of chef. Extremely skilled and talented. What a pleasure to watch him cook!
Honestly, seeing Dooby tearing up was an emotional part for me. So much to learn from her. Really love Kevin as a partner in crime! What a gentleman. All the best guys
Kevin did amazing !!! And the fact he doesn't do much to get recognition is so extremely humble- he has helped you make your dreams come true ❤
He is amazing
Are they together?
@@jadenkhoohoukit4573 yes
Yeah he did a lot
So impressed by Kevin in this video! He did such a fab job and took that criticism well.
I felt every emotion alongside her, the excitement, the nervousness, and even when she cried. Congratulations Dooby!! You finally did it! We're so proud of you❤
I’ve worked in fine dining for decades, it’s really fun to watch you guys learn… great foundation, just keep building, you’ll get there. My best advice would be to remain open to new things and change. With a tasting menu, feedback will come quickly and often 👍 I would recommend consulting with a strong FOH leader for sequencing service and polishing details.
When she cried you could feel all those months of hard work in her voice. I teared up when she gave thanks to everyone who stuck with her through the whole process ngl ngl. I really want to visit if I go back to Korea 😭
Seeing her and Kevin’s success makes me overjoyed. Seeing this amount of hard work and passion pay off is SOOOOO wonderful to see
Def a very talented individual, nice to see him in his element!
I love that you showed your emotions at the end. Honestly, I know you’ve been holding that in for so long because I know how stressful it is to open up a business and for the landlords to make it difficult. Then you doing so much renovations and then especially the clashing with the boyfriend doesn’t help at all, so I know that cry at the end for such a great relief, knowing that it was all worth it and then from here on out it’s gonna get even more better. We love you dooby!!
You always hear and see those places run by couples or family, but to actually see the behind the scenes of it for the five past months, to see it finally in action in this video, and to hear you honestly talk about the struggles of it have made this series one of the best things I’ve ever watched.
I am so proud of Kevin and I’ve known him through the screen for just a few months, I cannot imagine your pride.
Fantastic! Thank you, and thanks to your kickass team!
Damn, proud of Dooby for this moment. It's an achievement, the spot looks awesome, and she's gonna crush it!
This!! ❤🎉
Isn't she getting sued? Also no chance this lasts more than a year.
@@ldc19900why so negative
@@ldc19900I truly mean that from my heart.. F you.
I get it. It is hard sometimes and it is easier to lean in on your negative feelings and jealousy. But the world sucks enough as it is for all of us. Maybe it is better to cherish each other and root for others success.. I am pretty sure in the end .. looking in the mirror you will be happier with yourself when you treat people kindly. Treat people how you want to be treated and life is going to be better.
I wish you good healing.
@@ldc19900 what do you get out of being so freaking negative? Haul your unwanted negative and get out of here
This feels like a season finale episode
so proud of where you have become, i’ve been watching you from the beginning and will never stop
She truly is an inspiration. She always goes after what she wants no matter what anyone thinks and that’s why I love her so much ❤
FROM THE BEGGING?? AKRHWIDBWOHS?😭
Same
@@ohjohaseul03 😨 it’s so illegal for not noticing spelling mistake’s
Same! Started watching her shorts from 2020.. nice to see her grow so much.
I’ll tell you what: KEVIN is in his element, he seems like a good man but now I see he is also a good chef who’s in charge and flexible. Good luck guys! 👍👍👍👍
what an intense emotional end to that video. Not going to lie, that was probably the most human thank you i've seen in a long while.
I was so happy when i saw your parents came. I am greatly proud of you, Tina. From watching you do your little picnics to opening your restaurant. In my language we say "malayo pa, pero malayo na" which means "the journey is still far, but you've already come this far". I look forward to what more you will accomplish. ❤
Oh im Filipino but that’s my first hearing that. It’s beautiful.
I second the part about your parents--I was so grateful to see them at your opening night. Blessings to you~
Poor kevin 😭 he was so stressed but he did such a good job
An amazing job
Kevin the MVP for realllll
@@sweeteverglades8381 Were you there?
@@sweeteverglades8381 She was helping the entire time lol what?
From learning food science in school, to making food videos on UA-cam, and now we're seeing Dooby opening a restaurant. The glow-up is amazing! Congrats 🎉
The only thing that still gives her away as inexperienced is the way she puts her thumb in the bowls when serving.
You will get there and be a proper waiter as well as a chef!!
That’s what I noticed too during their mock dinner service.
I think if they consult with a professional restaurant manager they would have a very clean steps of service and serving etiquette down to a T.
She has an ego the size of an entire country, she won't improve shit.
I noticed with the server as well, his overhand grip made it so his palm was touching the food 😥
Wow, how incredible! Kevin seems like truly a wonderful, cool, calm and collected human, and you just as well. I've followed your jurney and can only say hats off!!! The restaurant business is a tough gig and often consists of hours of thankless, stressful work that goes unnoticed by the customers, but if your heart is in it, that outweighs everything. Best of luck!
CONGRATS ON THE OPENING!! This was so cool to watch the process from start to finish
Dammnnn u gettin IGNORED HSHA
AWW congrats tina, you should be so proud of yourself!! 💖 it looks amazing and it’s been so cool to see the whole process!
Wow shoutout to Kevin that man is a mountain, and to you Dooby for toughing this out and making your dreams come true. So proud of you both!
my daughter and I have been watching your videos for so long and she’s been so excited for you guys to open 🥹 you tearing up made my typically stoic 9 year old cry as well, telling me, “Tina is incredible, mama.”
so much love and prosperity to you all 🫶🏻
Congrats Tina & Kevin and the team! Seeing you and Kevin in action at Mija in the flesh was such an incredible end to my trip. It was just the cherry on top.
Even though I couldn't get a reservation before I left, it gave me so much happiness to see all your blood, sweat and tears come to life in the form of Mija and seeing the restaurant full of people was enough to make my trip. Thank you for coming out to say hi to me even though it must have been so busy (I was contemplating whether or not to come in and say congratulations because I didn't want to disturb the flow of the restaurant but you were so lovely about it.)
Can't wait to come back to Seoul next time to experience dining at Mija! ❤❤❤
Honestly it feels like a personal accomplishment seeing dooby putting together her dream into reality. Couldn’t be happier.
Right?! After following along her journey the past few months, it really makes you wanna hop on a plane to Korea and experience everything first hand 🫶🏻
Kevin is truly a world class chef/cook. It was cool to see how calm and focused he was in the midst of it all, that's called mastery. Both of you did such an amazing job developing this menu too. I can tell its tasty af. Congrats to you all. You deserve the continued success! Also, love your edit of this video and everything captured in it. 10/10
When you reached 1M, you said you will stay true to your style. After 2.4M more, glad to see you thrive beyond. Wonderful journey!
What an amazing accomplishment! Your pain and hardwork paid off! Glad your parents came to share this moment too.
I am so proud of you Tina. It has been an honor watching you build this from scratch. I got all choked up when you cried. Thank you for letting us be a part of it❤
So proud of you, I wish you, Kevin and your Team the absolute best with the restaurant!
Seeing Kevin in his element is amazing. Congratulations on your new baby!
This is real blood sweat and tears literally. Running a restaurant is no joke. Mad respect to this group of talented people. Wish you a ton of success 🎉
When you said that you were proud of you I also teared up. Being proud of making your dreams come true is one of the best feelings in the world. Thank you for showing us your journey ❤❤❤
I absolutely didn't expect myself to cry at the end with dooby.The spot, decor, food, the way everything is plated, the people is beautiful. I wish nothing but the best for you tina & I can see it growing much more in the future, heaps of great luck to you :))
Miss gurl just by watching your videos I get so happy 🫶🫶
So proud of you , been here watching you grow I wish all the happiness to you
“Is this mushroom or a meat?” Your boyfriend looked so flattered by that question! What an achievement! Great work you guys
you and kevin saying 'this is mushroom' at the same time was too wholesome
“No Tina no cry”
You did amazing our Doobydobap!!!
Congratulations 🎊 I can’t wait to visit and try yours and Kevin’s culinary❣️
Just watching and following the journey was a whole rollercoaster of emotions so I cannot imagine how you felt about all the process!
But I’m sure you can feel that everything you went through was worth it!
I’ll keep supporting from afar until the day I can support from up close comes.
Wishing you all the success in the world🫂
Once again, CONGRATULATIONS 🎉❤
I’m so proud of your accomplishments and it truly has been a wonderful experience to see Mija Seoul come alive. Thank you for sharing this part of your life with us and the ending truly did make me emotional just seeing this dream of yours come together❤ Congratulations on your opening🎉
It's so nice to see how this project has evolved! I'm so proud of you! Lots of love from Italy!!!
Kevin has great chef energy
He's now entering his "The Bear" era.
Kevin seems to be very hardworking and humble person. Our Dooby's Umbrella men ☔❤️Love you both
I have been watching your journey since the start/video you announced you're planning to open a restaurant. While there were some moments/plans/steps I didn't personally agree with as a viewer, I am still very very proud of your journey and what you have achieved. This is a really big feat and you and Kevin have done so well! I really hope you're restaurant remains a success and Kevin and you last for a lifetime. Also, something that made me feel very happy and relieved was your parents coming in to show their support. They should be proud of you!
curious what did you not agree with
Yeah, considering her parents and her had arguments in the recent past, I'm glad they still show support.
A little advice on 16:10
Planks in shoe storage should be at an angle (lower at the back of storage, and also with a little space for drainage), so in case if they are dripping (especially in winter or rain season), water will run not on shoes that are lower, but towards back of closet.
Putting cloth underneath is a neat trick too, but it must be dry before putting boots on it.
And, of course, congratulations!
im watching this like a proud dad like after all those ups and downs they've been through. hats off to tina, kevin, and the teams
I’m proud of you Tina! I can’t imagine the hard work and dedication this took. I wish you the best!❤
I never comment on anything, but seeing you archiving this huge goal melts my heart, I cried with you even though I don’t know you, I wish you all the success in the world! One day I’m sure I’ll have an amazing meal there
through all the endless obstacles, you, kevin and your team made it through.. love all the taste tests, constructive feedback and iterative refinement to get to your final product.. the tears in the end were definitely bittersweet knowing what you have fought through to get to where you are now. this goes go show again that success comes to those who don't quit and by doing things 99% of folks won't do.. winners are always focused on finding solutions. congrats on opening!
Congratulations Tina.
what ever you do never stop doing menu tastings to refine your food dont get lazy. most resturants i loved began to slowly degrade over time and felt like they didnt even try their food
Visiting your restaurant is my number one priority if I ever go to Seoul. What a ride it’s been for you guys?! Hats off to all of you and toast to success 🥂.
Tina girl……I’m so proud of you and Kevin and your crew that helped y’all along the way. Wishing you guys nothing but the absolute best ❤
Booked for June! I’m so excited 🤍🥹 My sister & I are such big fans, and w/ great timing we’re visiting Seoul on June. So we can’t wait!
I hope that your restaurant receives a great deal of praise and commendation amongst food critics both domestically and internationally. The restaurant possesses an atmosphere and mood that is contemporary, elegant, and tranquil and the dishes proffered seemed exceedingly refined and worthy of being recognized by Michelin. This venture must have required great courage, skill, and strength especially when one considers the intolerable levels of hardship and adversity that you had to endure and overcome. I congratulate you on your restaurant's grand opening and wish you continued success in all of your future pursuits.
The attention paid to minute details creates such an elegant ambience. And with their shared rich history in food prep, collaborating on the menu should provide some interesting culinary creations. 👨🍳😂
Enjoyed the eloquence of your comment.
lovely comment, couldn't have said it better.
we NEED to have your famous chilli oil noodle in the menu
That’s a Chinese dish though.
so glad to see everything come together and it's so sweet to see friends and family who came out to support you all😊
I just found your channel because of your korean convenience store food and this video right here was the first vlog in your journey of your restaurant I watched. I am glad I did. It's perfectly cut and edited, I could feel your weight that was lifted and the tears you cried.. crazy, you are a really relatable person and I am glad everything worked out for you and Kevin.
I wish you both the best and take care of yourself.
Seeing that you have come so far, like I've been following ur journey from the very start and seeing how you have gotten through all the highs and lows is so great!
We are so proud of u and ur team
I think now you and Kevin need a day at the spa to bond and relax
I'd say mostly Kevin since he seems to be doing the vast majority of the back-breaking work while she stands there and critiques someone's inexperience with opening bottles.
@@aparna12242 im pretty sure they had equal amount of work, she prob does more work off screen
@@aparna12242 “I’d say mostly kevin” why are y’all so miserable
@@aparna12242 if you think everything that’s shown on the camera is all there is then ur just stupid
@@aparna12242 You’re obsessed with her and critiquing all her decisions 😂😂. Hope you aren’t stalking anyone else
When Dooby cried I cried! Such a beautiful relief. Congratulations Tina and Kevin!!!🎉❤
Am i the only one who cried with Tina here? We are proud of you Tina! 🥺💕
Nooo haha I was just opening a box of tissues, that ending uff..
I too welled up by the end
i also am crying rn while typing this ..shit why did i feel emotional
not me also crying with you ~ crying in the club - but actually just crying at my desk job striving to have something like what you have with such a supportive community. What a flex. Thank you for your content and your genuine human experiences and sharing them with us.
Tina, I'm not sure if u hear this enough.. But what you're doing is smth really crucial!! Like I know the chefs have the majority of the burden to carry, but there r several restaurants that open every single day, but the amount of quality content u r generating for the social media side of yours is truly making u a winner by bringing u customers! Great job Tina!!
I got so emotional watching this!!! Thank you for sharing this journey with us. So very proud of you and the team!!!
when dooby started crying i started crying too… feels so cathartic to see everything come together after watching the journey. congratulations! thank you for sharing this piece of your life with us!
I am so proud seeing how far you’ve come, Doobie. We all love you sooo much! Congrats!
Congratulations Tina💕!! Wishing you and Kevin success, prosperity and happiness forever hereafter❤🧿💫
love how you just sit there and taste, lol. as a restaurant owner in Hawaiʻi, i can tell you that you will not have a day off.
so glad you’re parents came to support you!!!!
Seeing you flourish makes me so happy
I was not expecting myself to get emotional when the "No Tina No Cry" moment started.. but I guess i've been following your journey & it's so nice to see success on someone. I wish you the best of luck Tina
Incredibly proud of you two, especially after everything you've been through! Well done!!!
Got so teary at the end! And when Tina started crying I couldn’t help but ball…. It might be weird to read a stranger on the Internet say this but I feel so proud of Tina and Kevin! ❤ For someone who is following her for quite sometime I know how difficult it must have been , but the way these guys persevered…I feel super motivated and hopeful about my own endeavours! My love and support goes to you guys…Had I been living in Korea I would have definitely visited Mija Seoul. Congratulations guys! Your doobies couldn’t be more proud!🎉🎉🫶🏻
Oh my god, why did I start bawling when Tina also started to cry??
We're so proud of you guys. Michelin stars soon to come.
Manifesting it for them!!!
I wish the restaurant was like the home cooked meals u cook dooby in your UA-cam shorts - the type of food you would come home from a long day from work - that would be very homey instead of pre-made menu of small servings that is more expensive :// But overall the food looks amazing anyways and huge accomplishment !
Congratulations on a wonderful, beautiful, amazing venture come to fruition!! Congrats to everyone involved on a job very well done. It’s been so inspiring, motivating, and uplifting to witness this come to life, through all of the ups and downs of the journey. So excited to visit and support y’all!! Cheers!
congratulations on the opening! Its like the perfect ending of a mini-docuseries. I teared up at the end with you because you shared all the difficulties of this journey with us! Such a great beginning to this next chapter of dooby. Very inspiring and perfect example of perseverance in what you are passionate about. Congrats again Tina and Kevin and the dooby team. :)
Crying with you because I am extremely happy and proud of you, Tina. Congrats! Also Kevin, you did well!
I cried multiple times during this, it’s so incredible to see a dream come into reality. Your heart and hard work are truly on display here, and I hope to one day get to experience it for myself. Congrats Tina, Kevin, and the whole crew!!
the emotions throughtout this video was so intense.. its like watching the end of all the months of hard work and stress, and the beginning of something so beautiful *cries
Congrats Tina! Been watching you for over a year now and love your videos! Super heart touching.. im crying brb
*I cannot explain how incredibly happy I am for you Tina… YOU FUCKING DID ITTTT*
yayy! i hope it goes all well, i wish you the best in everything! love from turkey ❤️
I started watching you a year ago when I was going through my biggest heartbreak. Watching your content helped me go back to cooking and eating when I almost didn't have the energy to get up. I remember how I felt like we were in the same phases of our lives and watching you gave me peace that as long as I keep going, I'll get to see better days. I teared up watching you tear up in the end because look how far we've come in just a year. I'm so much better now and actually glad that things didn't workout for me last year. I'm so happy and proud of you, of us, my Sagittarius sister ♥️♥️♥️
Parasocial much?
@@ldc19900 why do you care? If you don't have anything good to say just shut up. I don't need this kind of energy around me
@@ldc19900parasocial?
Tina, I cried with you watching this. It felt like we were truly there with you from the first day we saw the restaurant, to a successful first opening night, it was a rollercoaster of emotions and we have reached the summit. Thanks for being vulnerable with the Dooby’s, it was endearing to see and we wish you the all the success! 🎉
I'm so happy for you! It's been amazing seeing your channel grow from small cooking videos to having your very own restaurant, I'm super proud and excited to see what you do next!
Ahhh when tina started to cry i just wanted to jump into the video and hug her 😭❤️
we're proud of you too Tina, Kevin & Kevin, not gonna miss out Yejin, and of course many more who supported & helped y'all throughout this tough process (oh yea and Master Kim), you guys deserve the best of best!
