I love the thumbnail! You used both! Brilliant! Your vlog is my fave Sunday wind down ritual! 😊
Haha, thank you! I noticed the polls on Instagram and here were pretty split-so I tried to pull it off with both 😅
@@2hearts1seoulYou did! So clever and creative! 😊
🎉 you need to stop by Traders WAREHOUSE... MUCH better than Costco.
Wow! The roses,the water,the views,the Food! Awesome job.❤
Thank you! ❤️
Beautiful place! The library OMG, have never seen anything like it. How special.
The STARFIELD MALLS are fabulous! I especially love the library areas. Seems like you could go once a week for a year and maybe still not see everything. As always, thanks for showing us places outside of Seoul. Beautiful. 🌹🌺🌹🌺
Loooove them! I feel like each new one they build, they up their game 😳
Oh my goodness. When I go to South Korea one of these days, there is so much that I want to see. That library was beyond! My youngest daughter would love that so much. Ugh! You guys make every corner of South Korea look amazing! Thanks for sharing.
The way I gasped when we first stepped into that library…it’s so magical in person 🥹📚
@@2hearts1seoulSuwon has an Air Force.
Love the tour of Suwon! I think it’s great you gave us a glimpse of both the natural and built environment. I prefer the green spaces, although it’s smart to visit during the cool periods of the day, like you guys did. The bookstore looks like a fun place to spend some time in.
Glad you enjoyed it! Yes, we love exploring green and historical areas, but it’s nice to cool down a bit after walking around in the sun for a while-balance 🌞
Wow ! The views of the city from up there are absolutely stunning !! Wow ! Kendrick Lamar !
It's really great that you two venture to so many other areas around Seoul, because they're not as documented, and when they are, not many videos do an area justice. I'm so relieved that this job is in your hands, because you both really document with great detail. Korea is so advanced, it seems to be ever changing. Like when you talked about people moving away from the country side at Kyuho's grandpa's home, or just recently worried about those neighborhood homes being torn down to make way for more city buildings. You guys very well may be creating records of some of the only shots, or capturing the very few rare moments of time with a unique essence of an area before it's changed forever.
Korea changes soooo, so fast-especially architectural-wise. Really hope many of these smaller, culturally-rich neighborhoods can be preserved and maintained 🥺
@@2hearts1seoul AHH you replied!! I love you guys
I could totally live in Suwon... what a stunning juxtaposition of historic and modern surroundings... Thanks to Mum for the loan of your beautiful new car
Wow, beautiful! That's another city I would love to visit, very nice filming.
Highly recommend visiting Suwon 🌹 And thank you!
Suwon looks very cool! Visiting a Korean Palace would make me feel as if I got sucked into a Korean sageuk drama.The Vietnamese food looks really good! The Starfield library looks so stunning and beautiful!
There’s so much to see and do in that city! We definitely want to go back soon :)
@@2hearts1seoul I definitely need to visit Korea sometime hopefully in the near future :)
Suwon looks so beautiful! Would love to see more it!
👍👍👍😄 interesting video😊
Glad you liked it! 😄
beemo meeting the toy cat was so sweet!! hahah
What a beautiful area! The Library was astonishing! One thing I really love about your Videos is that each frame could be a finished picture to be placed on a wall. And loved Beemo's reaction to the little cat. ♥️
Ohh wow, what a compliment 🥹 Thank you so much 💚
@@2hearts1seoul You're most welcome! ♥️ I've been thinking how to explain & that thought suddenly came to me.
I really love traditional Korean homes, wow! what amazing view to see, great video to watch,
Saaaame! Love that there were so many in the area ❤
Happy weekend guys! Love the info as always. The next time we visit Seoul, gotta make time to visit here. One day for the mall library and the next day for the food 🤭
Ohh the roses are gorgeous! 🌹🌹🌹
Rose season in Korea is such a beautiful time of year 🥹🌹
❤Thank you. Loved the Suwon tour.
Wow! Now I'm annoyed I didn't know about this place during my 1st and 2nd trip to Korea 😂 hopefully I can go again in the future, because this place looks gorgeous!
This video was too short!!! I loved every moment of it, including sweet Beemo with the tiny toy cat. 😊
He seems to be a big fan of that cat 😅🐈
🐧🐱
Well shot and edited. . Looks like new equipment. 👍
Thank you~ just good air quality that day-we still film with our iPhones 😎
Thanks so much for sharing this! I haven't been back to Suwon since my first visit 14 years ago, but now I see it's time for another visit 😊
Highly recommend visiting, especially this time of year! It’s so beautiful and green 🌿
세라님 진짜 좋아하는 코스들이었네요❤ 날씨도 풍경도 다 너무 좋아보여요~ 그리고 세라님 아웃핏 looks cozy and cute 넘 좋아요 스타일
감사합니다 🥹💚
nice video. I am planning a trip to Korea n I have noted all the places you went in Suwon. I will make my way there !!
Nice! So glad this could be helpful :)
I just loved Suwon. It seems to have so much to see and do with an more relaxed atmosphere. Love all the cafes etc. Thanks for showing us. I could spend days in the library.
Loved this vlog! Such beautiful sights! 😍 and LOL to Sarah's question at the end about Drake or Kendrick Lamar😂😂
LOVE YOU SO MUCH BEEMO! 😻😻
Great adventure! 😎😊
It's crazy how fast Suwon grew in popularity! The amount of amazing new cafes have brought in a ton of tourists and seoulites in, and with the creaiton of the new mall and starfield library it brought even more people! It's amazing when you think about how covid was only 3-4 years ago.
Yesss, we’ve been hearing about it more and more over the last several months, and wow, we were not disappointed!
Love Suwon. Been there a few times. Starfield Mall in Suwon is on our itinerary for next year.
Starfield Suwon is a MUST visit! 📚
I visited Suwon two years ago and I looooved it. So many amazing restaurants, cafes and cute little shops! Just a shame that there wasn't the new Starfield Library yet but I guess that just means I need to come back.
I used to watch your Vlogs when you guys started and then I moved to Canada and I lost in touch, but I stumbled upon your channel again yesterday. so after a long pause of three years, I’m back to watching you guys from today. Meanwhile, I also open my UA-cam channel. 😃
This is my hometown. I used to go to my high school along the way beside hwahong gate. I can't believe it's 10 years ago.
Wow, that’s such a cool location to go to high school! We love that area :)
@ thank you for visiting my hoemtown. Im currently studying abroad in the U.S. This video reminds me of good old days in my hometown. Great thanks.
Love these beautiful places
Yessss, please do go back and explore! Love the beautiful architecture and natural beauty there too!!! Thanks for sharing! Looking forward to seeing more in that really nice town!!
What a stunning neighborhood! You guys will need to do a Suwon Part 2 to try all the cute cafes 😉☕️
I feel like we might have to! 😅
The Hwahongmun Gate was absolutely beautiful. I could just sit there all day..
Same! It was such a spectacular view 🥹
What a beautiful day, thanks for sharing!🥰
Hi, amazing especially the wall, stream, flowers etc. So true just looking at the place is beautiful. The mall wow, thank you again till the next vlog 👍☺️...
Love your video!! I enjoy history, so visiting the palaces was awesome. Actually, everything about your video was great…would love to visit that library! I’ve been told that I’m a bibliophile…lol
Wow, thank you 🥹 So glad you enjoyed it ❤
Greet episode today guys. Thank you!
I really enjoyed this day trip. You guys always do such a great job with your whole style, way of filming and presentation of the places you visit, etc. (as well as the cozy, everyday life, home vids!) What a great city! It's so nice, beautiful and interesting. That mall and library were amazing and I loved that they allowed dogs there, too. Again, all the food looked so good. I wish I could visit Suwon, now! Beemo's reaction to the toy was so cute! ❤
I really love to see your vlog in Monday after work.. such a healing for me!
thank you!
Ohhh, thank you for watching 🥹
I will never tire of your day trip videos. Is Starfield a company? Why two library/ malls with the same name? I think the one in Suwon is more beautiful than the one in Seoul.
Yes~ they have a few malls throughout Korea :)
I'm hoping to have time to visit Suwon next year. There's just so much I want to do and see and not enough time to do it all. I love that new mall. WOW! If I go, I need to find that place to try to win a little Beemo.
I did have a laugh... I thought this would have been sponsored by Vessi when I saw you both by the water.
woah it looks so different in the summer! I went during March and everything was still pretty brown. Great video!
(also for anyone wanting to head there from Seoul by train a one-way-ticket was £3 - so cheap)
We were waiting for it to be green before going to film 🌿 And yes! It’s super affordable to go there by train or bus.
love watching this, i’ll go in august!
What a gorgeous library!
수원에서 자주 가는 곳들이 보여서 반갑네요. 화홍문 바로 옆에 용연이란 연못이 있는데 그쪽에서 보는 풍경이 매우 아름답습니다. 다음에 한번 가보세요.
와 다음에 용연 연못도 가볼게요! 감사합니다 😄 수원 너무 아름다웠어요 👍
This was incredible. That city is so awesome, and I’ve never seen Korean palaces like those. But, the mall…holy cow! I’ve always loved libraries, and there is nothing like that one in the mall. I just wonder how a person can reach all the books up at the top.
I was just gonna say from the beginning, if there's that many places you want to try to eat, it's a perfect excuse to come back again haha! Perhaps we'll see another Suwon video in the future.
6 floors underground! I always remember as a kid if you keep digging, you'll reach China haha. Maybe they'll reach the US/CA if they keep digging haha. Is that a thing over there? Or is that just a western thing?
Thanks for vising my hometown for me! I live in Canada, I haven't visited Suwon for 8 years now :(
You both are living the dream. Such a nice video
Always so lovely to watch you both. I find your videos very warm and cosy. BTW Sarah, the correct pronounciation for pho is "fur". not "far". Just sharing :-)
Thanks for showing/sharing Suwon with us.
Thanks for watching 😊
수원 어릴 때 몇 번 가고 안 가봤는데 이 영상 보고 완전 가고 싶어졌어요😊
Love the thumbnail and I think green is your color Sarah💚세라님 퍼스널 컬러 테스트 해보는 것도 콘텐츠 주제로 재밌을 것 같아요! 근데 야매로 하는 곳이 많아서 전문적으로 잘하는 곳 찾아가야한다고 듣긴 했어요~
세라도 퍼스널 컬러 엄청 궁금해 하던데 전문적인 곳 찾아서 한 번 해봐야겠어요! 저도 궁금해지네요 ㅋㅋ 세라가 초록색을 입을 때마다 많은 분들이 댓글에 색상이 잘 어울린다는 말을 적어주셔서 초록색이 퍼스널 컬러가 아닐까싶기도 하네요 😃
수원도 꼭 한 번 더 들려보세요! 정말 볼거리가 많아서 너무 즐거웠어요 😄
Such a happy video! Thanks for bringing us along. That Vietnamese restaurant looks so yummy! Have a great week.
Thank you so much for watching 💚
수원 옆동네 사는데 이런곳은 첨 보네요. 한번 가봐야겟네요.
와 멋지네요👍
저도 여자친구 데리고 가야겠어요😊
감사합니다
Me after watching this video: 💼💃✈ ----> Suwon next!
Such a lovely city!
I love how clean the areas are. If that area at 8:55 under the bridge was in Toronto it would be covered in graffiti and garbage.
There’s CCTV everywhere in Korea, so if anyone even tried it, they’d be caught super fast 😅
Wow that library looks awesome
You guys visited my neighbourhood 😂😂 I live right behind suwon starfield. Welcome guys!
There is a fitness centre called "Concord" which has a fitness centre + swimming pool. What's crazy is that.. to join annual membership, they charge 1500 USD for each. so If someone wanted to enter both Fitness and Swimming area. They must pay 3000USD approx. Which is really crazy.. but weirdly enough for entering with daily ticket, only costs 20USD so it's really bizarre place.
Right behind Starfield?? Lucky you! 🥹
@@2hearts1seoul lucky me now but back in 2005-2006, it used to be a cigarette manufacturing factory. so every day and night there was non-stop gas coming out of the factory. Smelled really bad. Then the suwon city purchased the land and transformed it into a baseball/football field for a while between 2010-2018. Then, they sold it to the owner of Starfield and they began building the construction between 2019-2020. It took ages for them to complete this.
Love your videos! I visited all of the same places in Suwon (except the cafes) last Aug with my husband and his family, it takes me back! Miss it so much. I was 7 months pregnant so we had to make the trip short unfortunately (his family live in Osan) hopefully I can go again and fully enjoy it with our son when it isn't so hot haha
화홍문 바로 옆 용연에서 방화수류정 바라보는 풍경이 행궁동 근방에선 제일 멋집니다.
Love your content! hwahongmun gate i think was one of the film location for Lovely Runner. ( correct me if i am wrong) :) 🙂
Thank you so much! ☺️ We actually have no idea tbh, as we’ve never seen it 🫣
2:48 드라마 우영우의 김밥집이 있는 곳이네요...지금은 김밥집이 아니지만 20년 전에는 진짜로 그 자리에 김밥집이 있었죠. 도서관에 다니던 학생들이 끼니를 해결하던 곳...
That phở looks so yummy 🤤🤤 and the bún thịt nướng with cha gio 🤤🤤
Next time u visit Suwon, try to walk around gwanggyo lake park + Alleyway (culture complex near the lake) in the night
수원오셔서 많고 많은 음식점중 태국음식으로 점심을 하셨네요 ㅋㅋㅋ 저기 찾아가기도 힘든 레스토랑인데 ^^
장안문 근처 불고기 맛집도 많고, 조금더 위로 올라가셔서 광교산에서 보리밥 드셨어도 좋을뻔 했습니다.
아쉬운건 다음기회에 ~ ^^ 영상 즐겁게 봤습니다. ^^
Thank you for bringing Suwon to us. Its on the go to list now if I visit Korea. Uniglo- should be uni- own. You walk in and suddenly you own something new. Not sure how that happens.😊
Yesss hahah, they always have such great stuff 😅
Hi, thank you for sharing! However, I might have missed this information. In which month is this? Is it in July? Will Suwon still look like this in August?
Nooo, this was May :) July and August is wayyy too hot and humid and will be rainy reason in Korea.
I'm not sure if this is going to help but have you seen those sunglasses clip-ons to prescription glasses because I think it might help Kyuho. so he could possibly get the colour correcting lenses clip onto his prescriptions 😊😊
Enchroma doesn’t currently offer these yet support.enchroma.com/support/solutions/articles/6000228136--can-i-get-the-enchroma-lenses-as-a-clip-on- but we’re really hoping they will in the near future 🌈
@@2hearts1seoul owh nono i meant like get it made with the lenses he currently have at an optician, maybe pay for the handling fee and special frames? sorry just trying to give out ideas, I'll post a link to the frame I'm talking about so you have an idea what it looks like ☺
Wow, that library is almost Harry Potter level. I thought the one at CoEx was amazing
The one at Coex can’t even hold a candle to the Suwon one, imo 😳
@@2hearts1seoul coming from American malls it was a huge upgrade. But Asian malls are far superior on the scale and scope. Plus the one in Suwon is a haven for dog owners on summer days
I need to catch up on many videos! Are they going to Canada this summer? Thanks!
Love how Sarah one minute is full on with Kyuho abot spilling water and telling your 100's of 1000's subs around the world cold water splash on my fetet, how do you Even?! And Kyuho's easy ability to laugh at himself ~ we All make mistakes & Kyuho, I'm often getting something down my ample chest! ....what's your excuse? Hahah! I kid! Then there's Sarah, after having her doubts, calling husband Kyuho a Genious (for fixing lamps! Yay! Kyuho! Very cool....This combo is ever likely to let Kyuho know he is loved, without him getting "a big head" or full of himself Hahahah! ~ Well being (and good memory for you Japanese brushing up Sarah!
I wanna live in Suwon.
2:33 에서 말씀하신 그 템플은 사실 템플은 아니고 서장대라는 곳으로 알고 있어요. 군사훈련 지휘하던 곳이요.
13:49 한 계단 내려갈 뿐인데 세라님 반응이 ㅋㅋㅋㅋ
좋은 영상 감사합니다♡^^♡
I wanted to try the Suwon Tour in the Klook app when I went to Korea last month. But there was a minimum of 2 persons and I was a solo traveler. So disappointing. Maybe next time I'll just go there directly by myself and explore. 😢
Suwon would make for a fantastic solo trip! Go for it 😎
❤❤❤❤❤❤
세라님 봄브라이트일거같아요!😄
저도 퍼스널컬러가 뭘지 궁금해요~! 💚
I live near Suwon Starfield~ It is awesome :D
How much time is required to reach suwon from Seoul in train
About an hour to and hour and a half, depending on where you are located in Seoul 🚊
@@2hearts1seoul And in bus ?
Will you do a video on the camping and glamping culture in South Korea?
Not likely-we aren’t the camping/glamping type 😅
@@2hearts1seoul By the way, I love that you filmed the Starfield Library during the Christmas off season. Don't get me wrong, I loved that big, huge Christmas Tree and all the lights, but I was really curious about without all of the fancy decorations. I know this one was in Suwan, but I would imagine they decorate the same?
Hi, did you use Naver Map to get there? If so, what did you use to pin Starfield Suwon in Naver Map
I swear the food in korea looks so much cleaner and healthier then here
I need to one day visit that library in Seoul
If y’all haven’t watched “Drake vs Kendrick Explained to White People” by Josh Johnson, I highly recommend it. I watched it yesterday, and it was really funny but also informative. He’s gotten a million views in 4 days now and it’s well earned.
The answer should be Drake as he is Canadian! 😂
Please visit Busan, interesting place.. 🫶
We’ve been to Busan and have made a few videos of our time there :)
@@2hearts1seoul oh wow.. I have to look for your video and watch soon.. thanks❣️
Thanks so much for watching 🥰
kendrick lamar for the win. lol
I know right !
The Suwon hanggung has never been used for a war time at all.
It a shame for you not to explore some historic aspect of the palace before you air this vlog.
Beside I can find no temple in this vlog. and you should not call any of historic pavillions a temple so easily, which I am afraid is so flippant!
From ‘Korea Tourism Organization’: english.visitkorea.or.kr/svc/whereToGo/locIntrdn/locIntrdnList.do?vcontsId=109307&menuSn=351
“A haenggung is a temporary palace where the king and royal family retreated to during a war. Hwaseong Haenggung Palace is the largest one of these, used by the Joseon kings since the time of King Jeongjo (r. 1776-1800). In addition to being used as a shelter during war, King Jeongjo also stayed here during trips to worship at his father's tomb.”
Or, the ‘Suwon Cultural Foundation’ website if you’re interested in reading that as well: www.swcf.or.kr/english/?p=35
“Haenggung is a palace located outside of Seoul where king used to stay when he traveled, at war times, or when he visited tombs. Haenggung can be classified into three types depending on the uses. There were some haenggungs built and used by kings during war times to avoid attacks of enemy troops and to continue to run the country.”
