@@atomic4650 Thanks for commenting, it can definitely be difficult but also incredibly enriching, check out our other videos on culture/language, I think you'll find them interesting!
I thoroughly enjoyed that interview. Matthias is so highly in-tuned with himself and those surrounding him. Emotional intelligence is so undervalued. Being able to articulate and explain how one feels is hard. 🧡
Thank you for this precious interview. As a half Korean too I can relate to those feelings so much. This is something I would like to talk about it too so I’m glad I watched this :)
Wow youtube suggested this video to me and I'm at joy to hear someone who is at a peaceful balance between their two cultures; not being derrogatory or overly praising one side. Also, the word choices and the sentences to describe your experience and thoughts are so beautifuly put. Thank you Matthias!
Dope dope. I bumped onto and subscribed this morning at 6am (Thailand). I’m still here.. I’ll listen to all of them conversations….keep the good work going guys! One of the most important podcasts in 2024. How I wish clowns fomenting hatred around the world would imbibe of this sobriety. Big up!🎉
Thanks for the wonderful insights. I particularly love the idea of a whole being, a complete person and thinking without boundaries. I have mixed twin daughters and I try to bring them up to appreciate the nice aspects of being Asian and European. I also try to provide them with lots of opportunities that are sometimes traditionally deemed as only for boys. I want my daughters to live as complete persons, not just as females or just half Asians. Once we open up ourselves wholely to a myriad of possibilities, our lives will be beautiful. Greetings from Germany.
It's such a great great interview. Thanks for sharing your thoughts and experiences with us Matthias and everyone! I've just randomly encountered this podcast, but the message this video's presenting, is so powerful and I think, really quintessential that's something we have to pursue ourselves to be as such who respect others as just the way they are and even oneself as the very truth of oneself.
I am half German and half Korean - born 1960's and left1978. I didn't have any racial issues in South Korea. sometimes I was stared at because I looked exotic to them but I spoke fluent Korean so I was including in their activities - of course, going to an all Korean elementary school helped.
What people don't know about Korea and Korean people is that they have a generational trauma when it comes to foreigners as a result of 1000+ years of constantly being invaded (over 500 invasions by China alone). It takes time for this generational trauma to disappear and I think Korea is progressing pretty quickly in this sense in this technological age. Racism was very common against foreigners in the 2000's.
Wooooooow, I am so happy this video showed up and will definitely recommend this video to my expat fellows/parents and will watch many more times, since this exact topic/subject was what comes to my mind daily as a mom of 2 kids who are multicultural living in 3rd country (meaning that we don't live in my home country nor my husband's country). How am I going to pursue myself to do my best understanding my kids' place and support them as a parent. What/how can I first identify my plate when things are consistently changing by living abroad over 10+ years in several area(city, states, country) raising kids. What part do I want them to be mindful, see more and what not.. Just endless questions about my stance as a person surviving between people from all kinds of different cultures and as a parent who want my own kids to grow their own solid standard with a parent like me who was born and raised in the same country until became a grown-up as its own nationality... I couldn't agree more with everything that were said by all of you. 🙌🏻 Please, Keep the good contents coming!

Question!!!😂😂 Where do you pay your taxes? Which country's passport? And if you are Korean, have you completed your military duty? If you can't answer this question, you are an ordinary Frenchman. Please don't choose at your convenience
Respect relativity. In France or other Western countries, there are black, white, and Muslim races! But there are no drugs and gun crimes in Korea! And there are no thieves on the subway! Okay?😊

Tbh if i would see that french guy in the streets i wouldnt think of him as korean at all. He doesnt look like us. So naturally he is a foreigner. A korean has maximum 3 different straits in his genes. Korean/chinese/mongolian. I feel his story but not only in korea he wouldnt be considered as korean. To me he looks south american kind of mix. If so. But keep covering those stories, thats very important and interesting to show.
It doesn’t matter how he looks. He grew up in Korea. He’s from Korean culture and likely has a Korean passport. He’s Korean. He’s also French. Simple. If you have Mongolian genes, does that mean that you are not Korean? Of course not.

This story seems fake, there were no Germans in Korea then and their racism would have been super obvious unless maybe you weren't actually half 😉

Matthias ! 조쉬하트넷 닮았어요!!
1:25 Same my culture like Koreans child shouldnot look into parents eyes, it is considered rude.
부모님 얼굴을 똑바로 보는것이 예의에 어긋난다는 것이 처음입니다.
저는 그렇게 자라지 않아서 모르겠습니다
혼혈이든,외국인이든 새로운문화에 적응력이 빠르고 노력하는 사람이라면
그런 문제들은 생기지 않습니다
어디서 살든 그냥 마음가짐이 중요함
오래살아도 한국말 못하면 소외된 느낌을 받을거고 단점들만 보일거고 본인 노력으로 빠르게 문화적응을 한다면 한국에서도 전혀 불편함 없이 재밌게 지내겠지
I agree, that's why Koreans cannot adapt well abroad!
사회적 존중과 의무감은
아시아중 한국에만 더 강조되고 중요하게 생각합니다
중국은 유교가 없습니다
일본도 유교가 없습니다
한국사회에만 강하게 유교적인
사회적존중 의무감이 있습니다
그리고 성적인 부분도 한국사회는
성을 도덕적인 부분이라 좀 엄격합니다 일본이나 서구는 10대때부터 관계를 가져도 괜찬치만
한국은 10대때는 절대로 안됩니다
도덕적인 부분이기때문에요
대학가서 경험합니다
한편으로는 늦은 성경험이 저출산의
원인일까 합니다
한국은 유교가 강하게 남아있는 사회입니다
유교사상은 중국에서 온건데요.. 지금도 중국에서 강조되는게 유교사상일걸요

Korea was never a monocultural society. All Koreans are only half Koreans. The other half is from Japan, China, and Mongolia.
That doesn’t make any sense. Maybe you don’t mean half, but genetically related to?
You are liar
