This is a super interesting series. Vox in general brings topics that are so niche and specific, that you normally wouldn't learn anywhere, or actively even want to know, and makes them fascinating and interesting, thank you
@Xiao Xiao let's not bring politic into this and ruin this. cyberpunk, ghost in the shell, cowboy bepop and other anime are all based on Hong Kong as the back drop. Neon lights are so cool.
When I visited HK back in the 90's, I remember the neon signs along Nathan Road were not allowed to flash, as it was near the old airport and they didn't want them to confuse pilots!
Claire & Tom Travel I like vox videos but I have to double check when it's related to world politics. it's usually propaganda or they have very weak knowledge of the subject. Look into their videos of trade war or terrorism.
I believe there is a translation error at 4:09. Instead of saying that it takes half a year for a neon light sign to be produced, Mr. Wu is saying that it takes half a year for a neophyte to learn how to make neon light signs in general.
Yea I also misinterpreted. I was like "6 months?!" But that just doesn't make any sense. 6 months sounds like the time it would take to make the glass from hand, and THEN bend the tube into a neon sign.
No, I'm not Amish. We don't even have them here. We also don't have this thing called a potatoe. We do some farming though, vegetables and fruits. I've got kewkumbers, skwash, grene pees, peechs, and apuls.
I always picture Hongkong streets to be filled with neon lights! (Maybe bcuz of movies & all) I'm a little disappointed but yean neon lights were quite the iconic look for Hongkong streets
Say that to Copenhagen, that place is pretty much going through a neon renaissance right now, even if not on nearly as huge a scale as what Hong Kong used to be.
Basically, the suits are pushing flat LED signs and are killing off the vintage art of handcrafted beautiful neon. That doesn't sound good and looks worse. It's corruption
This series is so dear to my heart. I was 9 years old when my family started to travel abroad and Hong Kong was the first country we’ve ever been to. I returned 9 years later, and I saw the difference. The city was more stream-lined and much more ready for the modern world whereas 2006 Hong Kong was very cultural and pulled so much inspiration from the orient. I’ve been to Europe, the Middle East and all around South East Asia. Hong Kong is still the most special to me.
It’s such a shame that China is destroying your city and erasing its unique culture too. I regret not seeing Hong Kong before the 1997 takeover. I know so many businesses that could see the writing in the wall and packed up shop before China came to town. Best of luck with umbrellas and candles. Hopefully they shine bright enough for some other country to see and help.
dam it another thing I start appreciating once it starts disappearing. I grew up in Hong Kong but moved away 18 years ago. No wonder when i walk around HK i cant find those street w overcrowded neon lights as pictures i have seen. Thanks VOX
Is there a reason why Japan hasn’t taken down their neon lights, not saying they should. Japan is also a stunning neon drench place that I hope in the future they don’t stop their neon lights for the reasons why Hong Kong has been removing them. Back to the question though, how come Japan has not taken away their neon lights like Hong Kong?
huh? Well I saw it and it claims that because technology isnt advanced enough it is racist. It doesn't say it but a little thinking can tell you so. So because a certain color doesnt come out in a certain way it was built for white people? I even think that cameras from that time faced problems from even lighter aspects of the environments. Since this was possibly the first time people started using cameras with color technology it isnt advanced enough to get you a full hd quality picture like the ones we have today.
its really sad because the neon lights of Hong Kong inspired so many different aesthetics and cyberpunk ideologies [also night city from cyberpunk 2077] and now its just like any plain old city ):
Having grew up in the city, neon signs are very nostalgic. But there are a few problems with them. For people living above shops with multi story neon signs, it is a nuisance at night. During storms and typhoons, signs had fallen onto the roadway. In early 2000s the government also pushed to limit the amount of exterior lighting on buildings in order to conserve power.
man i though for a sec i was also a S class but it turns out i was just a C class aced the physicals but flunked the exam! tell me someone gets this reference
*EDITING on POINT, VOX!!!!!* 😎😎😎 Music was great! The transitions were great. The only thing I didn't like was the lack of focus on the face when you were talking to the camera. 🙁
Yeah sorry about that! super annoying. I wish I had paid closer attention during filming. The Sony a7sii is a great camera but isn't the best with auto focus which is why im hoping to upgrade to the A73. Anyway, thanks for watching!
Damo Nantha Listen to Nikitch - Deku Trees (Original Mix) by CHATEAU BRUYANT ♜ #np on #SoundCloud soundcloud.com/chateau-bruyant/nikitch-deku-trees-original-mix
The editing in this series, especially this video is incredible! Not even mentioning the quality of the content! I really hope VOX gave this guy a raise!
I love this. Love the way Johnny creates his videos. The filming, the narrating style, the atmosphere he creates, it's just amazing. Vox Borders is undoubtly my favourite series in the entire channel. Keep up the awesome work!
but even most of the detriments are benefits in a sense. The more you put into something, the more important it is to you. Efficiency and convenience are great things... but they cheapen everything they touch. They only bring advantage in that they allow the effort and cost to be moved to something else significant. If you sent me an email or a text I'd barely care. If you sent me a physical hand-written letter, I'd carefully read every word, likely more than once.
Exactly. I don't get the point of the video, it seems to me a good thing to replace these old neon tubes by newer and better LEDs. There is no point to stay in the past.
Hong Kong, what a nice and interesting city! Would love to go there someday and see all the sights like the Tian Tan Buddha, Hong Kong Disneyland, Victoria Peak, ride a Star Ferry, ride a double decker tram, Ocean Park, and the Happy Valley Racecourse.
Even then, there's some foods in Hong Kong that's not good.. NEVER get Vietnamese food in Hong Kong. Even tho there's Vietnamese speaking people in the restaurant.. it's not authentic..somehow everything is either not authentic or just plain nasty
*I work with Neon and yeah, they very sensible to work with, and you need a lot of safety before work with one, they look awesome when installed but cost more, not only installation but consumed more energy than LEDs, so yeah I would use LEDs before Neon, now they're making LEDs that look like Neon signs, they're using the same glass that use in Neon but instead of gas in it, they put the LEDs strings in it*
The Ragin' Jamaican Sadly no. There's a link in the description but none of the songs match what's played in the background. They have edited that too (with permission I assume).
Are you really trying to sadden us with the fact that Ho g Kong is trying to protect the planet a little more and is trying to reduce the chance of one falling into the crowded streets? It is a change for the better, and since neon lighting will never completely die out, there is no need to get nostalgic.
it's not sadness that i feel, it's more of a nostalgia. they themselves point out in the video why Neon lights are not as good and efficient. they are getting you ready to say goodby to Neon
man, i miss hong kong. :'( i remember wandering through the peaceful streets as child, at a time when everyone went asleep. only the sound of crickets were heard. idk if it's just from the place i'm from, the vibes outta here just felt a whole another level. 💗
Adam Inzelberg According to the description, it's from an artist called Tom Fox, but the song isn't in his soundcloud profile right now so you can't listen to it I think.
Similar development in Osaka, I was enthralled by Dotonbori's neon splendor in 2014. When I revisited 2016, I was heartbroken to find out they had replaced the neon Glico-sign with a giant led screen.

I'm quite sure I like the neon better, it gives off a more mystical theme.
Fiber optic is the future....
LED was big in the early 2000's.
18 years ago!!!
Look up audio compression and limiting, because the volume fluctuates a lot in this video :-)
whats the name of the song in this video?
Much props to Master Wu.
It's so difficult for me to even write Chinese characters (Kanji), I can't imagine shaping a freaking neon bulb into one!
The "aesthetic" of the neon lights is really gorgeous
But can get super annoying if you live by a street full of neon...
it really is
3 replies
Why is aesthetic in quotation marks?
Aesthetic _is_ the correct word, dear
Each video is unique.. no part is used in another.. soo original, each & every time..
Maybe they could do a better job with the audio balance. Music is way too loud, and his voice too quiet.
there will always be room to improve
well...this video didnt include word even once borders.This should be called hong kong not borders
Well it is only 5 mins and from about company with a decent budget
its called content

Get out!
Sir, I’m not telling you to get out, instead I’m telling you that you should go somewhere with Open Mic Nights
Once LED takes over, all neon lights argon.

I was hoping for that too!
It would be dope

This channel is so great and I love this Hong Kong series. The border one in particular was great
Claire & Tom Travel it's also biased and shows propaganda so don't believe everything blindly
Really? What kind of propaganda?
Claire & Tom Travel They used al jazeera as a source once or twice so maybe he means that...
Josh xD al jazzera is a reputable source
Claire & Tom Travel
I like vox videos but I have to double check when it's related to world politics.
it's usually propaganda or they have very weak knowledge of the subject.
Look into their videos of trade war or terrorism.
Vox might have some questionable views on certain topics but I know one thing for sure, and its that their production is top quality.
Duke Agree, some subjects seems a bit to much "bias" but they never fail to deliver informative content
fact= propaganda?
Honest Lad no not at all. I dont think there is any flaws in the fact. Just the way some reporters portray it.
Honest Lad their biased reporting on topics such as the security of borders etc.
f all news is biased bc you need to take an angle on the issue.
I love the aesthetic of neon lights, I hope they never go away.
They removed all of These HK Looks nothing Special anymore
I believe there is a translation error at 4:09. Instead of saying that it takes half a year for a neon light sign to be produced, Mr. Wu is saying that it takes half a year for a neophyte to learn how to make neon light signs in general.
That is what it says:
“It takes at least half a year before you can make a neon sign”
I understood it, but it can easily be misinterpreted
Yea I also misinterpreted. I was like "6 months?!" But that just doesn't make any sense. 6 months sounds like the time it would take to make the glass from hand, and THEN bend the tube into a neon sign.
Yes it was a poor translation i too misinterpreted, that was the only part of the video I rewinded to listen to his Cantonese instead of reading
The translation is not wrong.... your understanding is wrong
I freaking love these Hong Kong / Border episodes. Amazing cinematography and great education! Thanks Vox

What makes you think I'm from Germany?

Fair enough, but I'm from the Netherlands. But if I'm right my family originates from Switzerland.
Such brilliant content!
Vox is everything great about UA-cam.
Yeah let's forget their bias toward liberalism, it's great
ONLY when they don't throw their obvious leftist bias all over their videos.
It's a liberal publication. It's openly liberal so probably not the channel for you if you vehemently disagree.

Love neon lights. There's something about them which screams "city" to me
I know exactly what you mean. I love the vibes of it.
Me too! And they remind me so much of the 80s for some reason.
I always picture Hongkong streets to be filled with neon lights! (Maybe bcuz of movies & all) I'm a little disappointed but yean neon lights were quite the iconic look for Hongkong streets
Its just because the energy of these colors that give you electrical vibes etc
It's because that soft gradient it gives. It's not sharp like led.
Damn I been declining too
My mental heath is declining
We'll preserve you, fam
If you drink water, is it cannibalism?
_NEON_ is the Past, _LED_ is the Future, But it's okay to appreciate the Past
Say that to Copenhagen, that place is pretty much going through a neon renaissance right now, even if not on nearly as huge a scale as what Hong Kong used to be.
Neon is coming back and is trending now in Europe, America...simply because LED is mass made and looks cheaper compared to the neon artistry.
@Chuck Chuckson examples?
Why do we even have it when the “Furture” isn’t better than the past
and then steve aoki be like neon future

Hong Kong is a gorgeous city and *Vox* just accentuated it all 😍
Vox is saying that the city is losing its neon beauty - your clueless.
*You're - correct. Lol.*
Don’t be salty boi LEDs are still fire neon will become a super art

The entire video was cinematically beautiful, except the unintended off focus face shots

Neon
Pros - look good
Con - Expensive - power consumption is high - high maintenance fees - hard working on it to get shape
but even most of the detriments are benefits in a sense.
The more you put into something, the more important it is to you. Efficiency and convenience are great things... but they cheapen everything they touch. They only bring advantage in that they allow the effort and cost to be moved to something else significant.
If you sent me an email or a text I'd barely care. If you sent me a physical hand-written letter, I'd carefully read every word, likely more than once.
seigeengine So you're saying that high power consumption is a good thing?
Then develop a way for the neon light's power source to be efficient. I'm no engineer but I'm sure at least someone has thought of this idea.
seigeengine the planet will be thankful both for the LED lights over Neon and the email instead of a physical letter
Exactly. I don't get the point of the video, it seems to me a good thing to replace these old neon tubes by newer and better LEDs. There is no point to stay in the past.
The music is so legit
neon lights look x1000 times better than LED
But is it
There is a new version of LED strip that look like neon light.
Thick strip of silicone that won't break.

Which planet are you on?
Well Hong Kong is pretty unique and very very few cities on Earth look like it.

Rafael Santos have an idea what song is that?
Adam Inzelberg According to the description, it's from an artist called Tom Fox, but the song isn't in his soundcloud profile right now so you can't listen to it I think.
One word: cyberpunk
I LOVE THIS SERIES SO MUCH
So glad that Vox is doing a series about Hong Kong, thank you!!🇭🇰🇭🇰
I’ve always had a hatred for LED lights ever since they became a thing. Long live neon!
Similar development in Osaka, I was enthralled by Dotonbori's neon splendor in 2014. When I revisited 2016, I was heartbroken to find out they had replaced the neon Glico-sign with a giant led screen.
Thank you again, Johnny :)
These series are truly beauitful. Thanks, Vox!
The beauty of neon is that it looks both classic and futuristic.❤
