If people know how much the US exists to use its citizens and the world abroad. They wouldn't love it so much. But yes the US is great for exponentially growing money if you are not a salary person.
Forget about S Korea, everyone over there is "Western princess of war", do look for it on Wikipedia as its not a normal word
“I don’t think anyone has a negative perception” ask his gf “yeah I have a negative opinion” 😂😂😂😂
韩国人对美国的看法挺复杂的。所以不能一概而论。韩国有一些左派分子是反美媚中的。例如더불어민주당等等。前总统文在寅也是。再说他是偏激的反日主义者。日本人都讨厌他。
They broke up after the interview 😅
Many Koreans have negative opinion on the US. Things like health care, gun control issues, and racial divide in the states are pretty well reported in Korea.
@@panacea26947 Free healthcare makes hospitals full & wait time becomes longer, gun control make America un-invadable, & makes us equal in the sense that nobody is more dangerous than the other. Korea does not have to worry about rascist because 99% of the poeple are korean lmfao we have every race from every country & they still want to defend their home country. wayyyyyyyy different.
@@panacea26947 free Health care would crowd hospitals in any serious event. Gun control makes America un-invadable, but also keeps us equal. No person is more dangerous than the other. & The US hold every nationality of people . Which makes people still proud of their homeland countries. Korea is 99% Korean so no rascial problems. And if US didn’t supply S.Korea with weapons, Kim Jong in would already be your leader.
Bro the guy with the white jacket knows what he's talking about. He steadily turned every single negative or positive question into an objective observation. He understands that either positive or negative, they are simply propaganda.
That dude's an SNU student. Enough said.
America has great healthcare. But the question is: is it accessible?
It really depends on where you are and your insurance. I had Medicaid get me into surgery in less than 2 months and I didn't pay for it being poor. That being said, I lived in a state that funded it well.
I make 80k, and my insurance is about $83/paycheck. I pay $1600 for a deductible. The most I pay for expenses is $5000/yr. They give me $1400 into a bank account for that though. It's better than some folks and I'm lucky. My PCP and therapy visits are free. Derm was free too, psych, blood tests. A lot of my drugs were free when the insurance started kicking in... But again, you need that good plan for it to be worth while. I'm very, very lucky.
America has the best medical care in the world.
So the problem is that it is only available to the richest people in the world...😂
@@1nsertTitleHerelmao you're getting scammed and you're grateful
It's only accessible for those who can afford health insurance. Many working poor and foreigners in the US are left out.
My State of California will be giving Free medical to undeserving Illegal Alien migrants, Liberals in my state are causing prices to rise for hard working class citizens that actually need it for value prices.
As a Korean we always appreciate and support our big brother, the USA ✊
More like puppets or lapdogs.

Korean people's views of the US tend to be of longing and a fantasy. The truth is, drugs, violence and a low quality of education, foods, and social services are just some of the big problems in the US. This is coming from someone who has lived in both countries.
Whatever problems in SK, they are 10x worse in the US...and there has been a lot of projection lately of US problems onto SK.
As a Norwegian who has studied in the US and China, I have to agree
@@Drownedinblood I once asked a Korean how does he differentiate between a Chinese person and Korean? He said frankly, "Oh, we look better". ^^
True, seeing US destroying itself from inside are quite astounding. Id rather visiting Turkey, Japan or South Korea
As an American, this is indeed true. Most states in the US has poor education regarding the world 🌎. I'm 30 years old, and I constantly think to myself that I should relearn everything again, starting at 6th grade and up. So much has changed. I miss school. Can't afford college, so the internet is my school now.
They all had good and valid points. I most definitely think US would help Korea if a war break out. The US has been allies with Korea for years. Yes the US, my home can be dangerous, and more dangerous than Korea. I still think we are the most powerful, but we lack in taking care of our own US citizens, in regards to healthcare, education, homelessness, jobs, economy. The government is screwed up so bad to the point that we honestly look like clowns here in the States. I'm glad that some Koreans see us in a positive light, but we have a lot of work to do here.
The mindset of Americans are not on the same page as Asians. When Kim and Trump were having heated exchanges, many Americans notably Caucasians and seemingly distant were calling for an attack and even nuking North Korea without a care of surrounding populations impacted. It was quite a contrast to East Asians whom were not in favor of war in the region. It's a generalization but this what was observed.
@@downtomars6268Crowd control basically
@@downtomars6268Huh?! What Americans were calling for nukes? You can't just make stuff up or take the words of a few idiots and generalize a population with words like 'many'. Where did you find this info? You gotta be a misinformation bot.
@@downtomars6268you do realize, we always called for nukes? But it never happens. Only reason NK doesn’t attack is bc of deterrence. Kim know he can’t win against us, we have to remind him.
@@matthewsnow6317 Not making it up, seen enough public discussions to say there are opposing biases and Westerners lean to war, often not in the interest of neighboring countries or peoples. The U.S. leadership Trump discussed using nukes on North Korea and blaming it on another country. Not the first time America targets East Asia for nukes. MacArthur planned to use 34 atomic bombs on Korea, China; prior we know what happened to Japan. Practically never hear such talk on other countries.
as a korean new zealander, i see alot of ppl calling korean brainwashed for liking USA or supporting usa when they are supporting israel for genocide in gaza or making genocides around the world . but i think this mindset should stop because everyone has their own opinions. there are 7 billions people around the world and i dont get why ppl are forcing or criticising how other people think especially when they have own diff opinions.
personally, usa has alot of issues such as shootings and also political issues such as withdrawing its troops from Afghanistan etc and US government made alot of bad mistakes but still it was USA that defended south Korea during the korean war and still continues to defend until today by having 30000 troops in south korea and 50000 in japan. if it wasnt for usa, then south korea would be under north korean rule which means no kpop, no kdrama, no kbeauty, no freedom/democracy, nothing. all the things that foreigners love about sk wouldn't exist today if usa didnt defend sk. despite all the problems that usa has made, majority of koreans have good image bec of it. also alot of them enjoy pop music and movies. its important that u differentiate politics with culture. even tho many korean dislike japanese government, it doesnt mean we should hate Japanese people or culture. theres alot of korean ppl that enjoy japanese culture such as anime or manga.
so any people that forcing Korean to think the way they should is closeminded. its important to be open minded, accept other opinions and also mind your own business. if you dont like what u see then dont watch it.
even i prefer peace between israel and Palestine. i dont want innocent ppl to die just because of relationship between two government so i dont support israel as well bec of genocide.
P.S don't bother writing any negative comments bec I'm not gonna read it, if u don't like it then move on
No one cares what you think. And no one will read your sob story lol
news flash. the US doesn't give 2 shats about korea. it didn't then, it doesn't now. back then it was to stop the spread of communism so that they can spread their capitalism. nowadays, it is to maintain military supremacy in asia in order to contain china. korea and japan are nothing but pawns and launch pads for their military. they will abandon korea just like they did in vietnam, afghanistan, and in the very near future, ukraine.
Too long to read. Use chatgpt to summarize
No kbeauty 😂
So, in a way, break all friend relations with USA? And maybe make the Americans realize they never had friends?
Aa an American, I can already see that coming. The nation's losing more friend relations than it thinks it's not. But hey, what's it going to do to the citizens anyways?
The country's citizens will never find out about losing friends outisde their country, because the government will not want that info to leak.
I feel South Korea and Japan are two of the most protected countries under the United States's security umbrella. If any of them were attacked its hard to see the US not dropping most other conflicts to focus on them.
well 40% of US military bases are stationed there.
I hope US can get South Korea and Japan to get along.
israel - hold my beer
From what I’ve seen, SK is trying hard to mend ties with Japan. They are willing to let go the WW2 atrocities.
Nope. They are being used as proxies just like Ukraine to maintain their hegemony. They broke Korea into two.

If u read korean comments in Korean news, u can see that how strong the anti-China sentiment is in Korea.
I suppose they don't understand the geopolitic, but it doesn't matter China doesnt care anyway.

I enjoyed that, very enlightening ty😊
수많은 구독자를 보유한 아시안보스 채널에겐 미안한 이야기이지만, 질문의 수준이 정말 떨어진다고 생각합니다.
한반도의 역사는 수천년간 언어, 문화, 역사적으로 중국을 이야기하지 않고는 이야기할 수 없습니다. 그러나 한국전쟁 이후로는 상황이 역전되고있죠.
미국의 문화, 음악, 음식, 경제, 군사 부분에서 미국의 영향이 계속적으로 커져가고 있죠.
왕이 부장이 그런 말을 했습니다. "한국, 일본이 무엇을 하더라도 결코 서양인이 될 수 없다." 라고요.
네, 맞습니다. 한국은 뭘해도 서양인이 될 수도 없고, 그렇게 되고싶어하지도 않습니다. 그러나 확실한 것은 중국이 주변국에게 행사하는 정치, 군사적인 압력은 중국의 주변국들로 하여금 갈수록 멀어지게 만들고 있는 것이 현실입니다. 미국-필리핀 동맹 강화, 한국-미국-일본 삼각공조, 영국-일본-이탈리아 동맹 등 이러한 정책에 동의하던 동의하지 않던간에, 현재 일어나고 있는 현실이라는 겁니다. 시간이 갈수록 중국은 가깝지만 먼 나라, 미국은 멀지만 가까운 나라가 되어가는 것이 한국인들의 정체성의 변화라고 생각합니다.
정말 안타까운 부분이라 봅니다. 해외여행을 가거나, 외국으로 어학연수를 나가보면 정말 많은 중국인, 일본인들과 교류할 기회가 있습니다. 같은 동아시아인이라서그런지 결국 외국에서 마주치는 동아시아인들끼리는 꽤 잘 지내는 편이죠. 한국이나 외국에서 마주치는 중국 유학생들은 꽤 괜찮습니다. 확실히 상하이나 베이징, 선전, 청두같은 대도시에서 오는 부유층들이 많기때문인지는 모르겠지만, 겸손하고 친절하고 외향적인 사람들이 많습니다. 그래서 더욱 안타까워요. 인종적으로 꽤 가까운 관계임도 불구하고, 중국의 주변국에 대한 공격적인 외교때문에 갈수록 불편해지는 상황이 연출되고 있죠.
지금 우리가 살고있는 시대는 유튜브, 인스타그램, 페이스북, 트위터 등 그야말로 소셜미디어 그 자체로 도배되어 있는 세상입니다. 예전에는 정치와 민간영역은 구분해서 생각을 하곤했지만, 이제는 모든 국제뉴스를 전세계의 모든 사람이 실시간으로 공유할 수 있는 시대에 살고 있습니다. 한 나라의 외교정책이나 영향력이 민간의 영역까지 영향력을 행사하는 시대인거죠. 전세계인이 바라는 것은 중국이 합리적인 대화를 했으면 한다는 것입니다. 한국이 미국을 더 가깝게 느낀다고 불편해할 것이 아니라, 진정 친구가 되길 원한다면 열린대화를 해야한다는 것이죠. 싫다면 어쩔수 없는거고요.
해마다 중국에서 한국으로 오는 유학생의 숫자는 어마어마합니다. 한국에서 아이돌을 하고싶어하는 사람들도 많구요. 한국으로 귀화를 시도하는 중국인들의 숫자도 엄청납니다. 중국분들은 이미 잘 알고 있습니다. 한국에서 정상적으로 생활하는 중국인들에게는 우리는 잘해줍니다. 한국의 규칙을 잘 지키고, 민감한 부분을 건드리지 않는 이상 인간관계에서는 크게 문제될 것은 없습니다.
다만 불법체류자 문제나 보이스피싱, 스미싱, 첨단기술탈취 시도와 같은 각종 범죄와 관련한 것들에 대해서는 굉장히 민감해하죠. 주변국들의 국민들이 왜 이러한 생각을 하게되는지 중국분들이 스스로 한번쯤 생각해보셨으면 좋겠습니다.
You kept describing Chinese diplomatic ways as “aggressive”, so may I ask why do you think that? Is it the image you got from news ? We don’t have any military base in any Asian countries but the US does. We have borderline dispute with neighbor countries but all false are on China? I know all countries that are allies of the US tend to think negatively towards China, is it a coincidence? We will never invade any countries unlike the US, so why are we the bad guy😅

All these white conservatives watched those "rooftop korean" videos and all of a sudden love us and use us for their agendas, especially when they bring up riots. But in reality, they caused the riots, then abandoned us, didn't honor our insurances, and didn't march with us downtown in the aftermath.

The fact that the US was spying on your government and your government said it wasn't true.
The fact that your people committed war crimes in vietnam Basically functioning as the sacrificial lamb of the Americans. As you well know, after American troops, Koreans were the most heavily present in Vietnam.
The fact that your chip industry is suffering because the US is forcing. You not to sell to China and you agree. Not because it's in the best interests of your people, but because you must obey the American master.

It’s sad when people very eager to answer the question, but when you ask “why” - they stumble. Humans have to be more conscious in daily life, and use critical thinking more often.
It's bc they are brainwashed with Us agenda.
Uh... ok
True
Lol whom are you telling. I literally saw South Koreans fighting with Japanese a few comments above on who the US loves the most. The South nor Japan has any national pride left in them. The South Koreans and Japanese believe the more good looking you are, the more intelligent and kind you're. If you're not that good looking in South Korea, your life's finished. Because no matter how talented you are, the people will always look down on u. No wonder the US brainwashed them so easily.
Most Koreans have not forgotten that the United States made tremendous sacrifices in the Korean War.approximately 40,000 Americans died in the Korean War.
Think about it.
The sacrifice of over 40,000 young lives and their families...
Maybe that's why many people seem to think that even if there are other great interests, America is still better, Even if it seems like an unfair deal, don't ask questions, America is better.
Question to the channel team, how wide was the range of people you approached? In terms of area, age, etc… And do you say what channel it is before asking questions? How many interviews was left out after editing?
Yeah, I want more older people opinions, like around 40 woman.
No need, South Koreans are the type of people who believe the more good looking you are, the more talented and better person you're. If you're beautiful in South Korea, everyone will look up to you. But God forbid you're ugly, then even after having enormous talent, you're fcked up. It's better to stay away from such nation.
The older will be more nagative and the result will not change either in other places
The disconnect between the Koreans interviewed and what appears on US-based media is very revealing. The relationship between the US and South Korea is transactional. The US offers a military presence, and Korea sends the US goods and KPop. Americans have no interest in visiting Korea, and neither do other countries, though China has the most tourists which can be verified by the Korean Tourism Organization.
The man who actually lived in the US as a student has the most realistic view. While he does not elaborate he mentions the skewed image of the US in Korean media, the economy, and the election. It would be interesting to ask specifically about how Koreans view American politics. Would they be shocked at the length of campaigns, the amount of money spent, and the current choices for president?
I was born in the US but I don't recognize the country that it has become. The open grifting and lies spewed by national politicians and the dysfunctional justice system portend a second civil war and the end of the Empire.
idk how they aren't embarrassed by this.
ua-cam.com/users/shortsAWwLVlIeFpg
I was born and raised in the USA. I've spent months in South Korea. Of course that's because I was working or Samsung Telecom at the time, helping with Galaxy S phone development.
Was that experience transactional? Perhaps. As an engineer, I'd argue that all interactions can be viewed as transactional, so that statement probably isn't as negative as you think it is ... unless you think one group of people has some inherent right to other people and their stuff.
As far as US politics, you probably have a point.

Everything is always perfect when your life is good. The moment you're in trouble, nobody is interviewing you again. Health care is a disaster in the us. Poverty, drugs, alcohol, psychological problems, food/obesity/diabetes, prison slaves, factory farming/animal abuse, foreign policies that many times in history ruined whole countries (north and south korea divided).
we HAD to STOP communism.
Some of the best health care in the world is in the USA. The problem is it not being super accessible due to high insurance costs. There's high regulations on farming and raising animals for food or other uses that does not allow this so called "abuse" you speak of. North and South Korea are divided because one side wanted freedom and the other wanted slaves and absolute control. I do agree that the opioids are a big issue in the US. As far as poverty goes, there are poor people in all countries. But the US has social programs like cash aid, food stamps, section 8, hud and other programs to help people. Which most countries do not have. Most of the stuff you talk about are things that news stations spread false info about around the world. I can almost think you're not even American which means you shouldn't spread rumors about stuff on an country you're not even apart of or know anything about. If you are American, you need to get out of that bubble you're in and go and learn something about the US before spreading false claims and lies on the internet. Just a thought!

The food companies are producing more and more processed food. There's no government regulation to stop it as far as I know. The sugar amounts in food products are also not controlled. Most of the insurance company tries to avoid giving out as much money as possible. The US is just a playground for the rich now, nothing else.
Drugs aren't just an issue inside the USA... Cartels from other countries actually ship their drugs into USA as well. Mexico, Columbia and China as a few examples. I pray one day this has an end for our nations sake.

@@silveriver9That's true for some drugs, but it's also true that precursors and drugs themselves are smuggled into the country intentionally for illicit sales and distribution
@doughvahkiin2885 what you mention are bad actors whom sell on to the end user. I'm highlighting that it is wrong to point finger at China as the post is doing. China simply manufactures substances for medical use for export. Bad actors overseas gets their hands on it once it leaves China. China domestically doesn't have a drug problem.
Everyone you interviewed was thoughtful and gave well-informed and intelligent answers. There is no doubt in my mind that we will defend the Republic of Korea if they are attacked. It won't matter how many other conflicts we are involved in. We will have enough forces to defend the ROK.
It seems that the average Korean being interviewed on the street is both a lot more well informed on current events and more politically astute than the average American you would stop on the street.

The US IS the greatest country and it should be specifically to south koreans because without the support of the US, SK would've become part of NK, so thanks to the US, SK is now a free and a prosperous country and that's the reason why SK adopted the American democracy. So, yeah, the US SHOULD ALWAYS BE THE GREATEST COUNTRY TO SOUTH KOREANS and to everyone who have benefited one way or another from the US system and support. No question about that.

Most Koreans are pro-US, but left-wing nationalist are more critical of the US. They preferred to remove US troops from Korea in exchange for Korea having its own nuclear weapon.
Korean right wing conservative prefer both USA and Japan. Korean liberal prefer USA, but not Japan. My personal observation
Hi
I'm from Europe (one of the member states of the EU and NATO), and we consider South Korea as a friendly, ally country. And from our history we do know very well how horrible it is to be under such regimes as many European countries experienced themselves, being for 50 years at the communist site of the Iron Curtain. So we don't wish it to anyone.
We Koreans also view the EU with friendly eyes. We think that the EU is the most advanced region in the world, and we even do not have any historical grudges as our enemy in the imperialist era was Japan (not the European colonial empires). I think the only problem between us is distance (western Europe and far-east Asia is too far away from each other to actively communicate cultures)
@@ignisilluminati Not all European countries had colonial past. My country (Poland) never had any overseas colonies. And despite distance, we have nowadays more contacts, and there's even cooperation between our countries, including military one (we buy currently quite a lot of military items from SK). Also more and more people, quite a lot currently, travel to South Korea as well as to Japan. And there are even some interesting, quite popular UA-cam channels about SK and Japan in my country: about South Korea - "Pierogi z kimchi" and "Pyra w Korei" (of two Polish women living since years in SK) or "Kim jestem" (of a Korean living since years in Poland, with both of his Korean parents who also moved to Poland, and he speaks Polish perfectly). And about Japan, the most popular channel is of Gabriel Hyodo, who is half Polish - half Japanese (his Japanese father lives since years in Poland and has a Japanese language school in Cracow). This week Gabriel went also, as a tourist, to South Korea for the first time (usually he visits Japan, where he has a grandpa), and there's a whole video from SK of him. And also "Ignacy z Japonii", a channel of a Japanese who also moved to Poland, and he also learned to speak Polish perfectly. So nowadays people do travel, are interested in the world, learn languages (also in Poland there are language schools of Korean and of Japanese), and there is cooperation especially between states that are democratic ones. And there's even a factory of kimchi in Poland, of a Korean brand "Jongga" (a Polish-Korean factory), near Cracow (because we generally like pickled food). A lot of Koreans live also in Wrocław, where's an LG factory, so there are some Korean restaurants in this city. So nowadays various countries and people may cooperate, if they share views.
Be the American the Koreans think you are.
most of these people need to wake up and watch how american politicians have always treated others, allies and others. crazy blindness and deafness.

What makes the U.S.A different is that their a nation builder when it comes to foreign intervention.
Most American today don't like that about their own government for going around the world and pumping millions, even billions of hard-working Americans' taxation to help build nations around the world. Expanding its influence and military complex with well over 800 military bases around the world today.
For the past 79 years of doing it, it has been taking its toll on the American people's hard-working taxation that funds the entire thing.
The question is how much longer can America continue to go down this path of being world domination already being trillions in depth as a country.
How long can America continue down this path is the important question, and can the American people continue down this path for another 79 years or even the next 200 years or will the people break the government first.
All superpower will eventually fall, and history has taught us that.
Just like the Spanish empire to the French empire to the British empire that once had great military power and influence around the world, they all eventually succum to the same issue that the American are currently on today. When a country taxed their own people to the breaking point and the people rebel against their own selfish tyrant government, who put their desperation for world domination over their own people.
But it is a fact that without America today, the world will be in a much worse place.
Before America rose to become a world power during ww2, the world was in a much worse place.
Powerful country, we're fighting each other nonstop, and when a country has lost the war, the loser country and its people succum to the brutal treatment of the Victor country. Creating an entire new generation of people who want revenge and will take revenge when their generation becomes of fighting age man to free their country from the brutal treatment of their enemies. Creating a long stand hatred and wars between nations that goes on nonstop.
But when American rose into world power, they broke that cycle. They defeated Germany and helped rebuild Germany. They defeated Japan and helped rebuild Japan. Something new.
Rich country has not fought rich country directly since then.

The American period has indeed allowed a massive reset in international relations on a more equal post-colonial footing. The reason for this is the USA does not really know what it’s doing. If it did, like Britain and France do, it would have taken full advantage of its power and would not have ended up suffering the problems it currently has. Britain and France kicked off the industrial revolution and are the only countries that really understand the world we live in today.
After the Japanese surrendered and Koreans were liberated in 1945, the Korean people established their own government called the People’s Republic of Korea. But when US troops arrived on the peninsula, they refused to recognize the government that Korean people wanted, and instead occupied half of their land, and embarked on a deadly war. the US then hand picked a president, Syngman Rhee, to rule south korea. now, if the US really wanted to help other countries, why wouldn’t they help koreans build the nation that they actually wanted?
lmao your precious american exceptionalist lie is also the reason why hmong people were abandoned and forced to trek across the Mekong river when they helped the U.S during the Vietnam war, leaving thousands to d1e. over 50 percent of americans didn't even approve of southeast refugees to be able to refuge to america and only christians agreed to do so so they could convert the community, deeming the culture inferior. America doesn't give a fk about anyone but their own interests. quit rewriting history and sugarcoating the bad. its the u.s who has for the past 3 centuries since its conception prohibited and prevented peace from ever happening. the hatred and wars happened because of america's manufactured enemies, and the cycle continued BECAUSE of it, not despite it. can't fix something you started. nazism literally exists because of american eugenics theory. america also interned thousands of japanese americans and ruined their lives. not to mention the obvious 2 nuclear gen0c1des. it was an AMERICAN who also forcefully opened the borders of japan when they didn't want to, leading to the restoration of the emperor system and the desire to colonize asia. if you read literally any source on this history, its obvious that america's intentions weren't to help anyone. but to use racist ideology to conquer people who they deemed inferior through the idea that god willed them to violently impose their cultural dominance on the "poor savages". can't destroy something and then claim to be the saviors. america is the definition of projection.

Some wide raging views and it’s nice to see the “ American dream aspirations “ are still alive. Wonderful to see the diversity in comments, especially in the current affairs and political spectrum. I think the world is waking up to the views of America and the bias tv coverage of the conflict in Gaza. I hope Koreans look into this and learn a lot more history and become wider versed in this conflict and its oppression & apartheid over the Palestinians.
Koreans need to learn from history and open their eyes to see that occupation did not end after Japan was defeated; it was just replaced with American occupation. The propaganda is so strong and goes back decades; to get millions of Koreans to go with it is truly amazing
Koreans are wearing rose tinted glasses.
Koreans don't even realize that the trust instilled in them by the United States simultaneously instills hatred towards their neighbors, leading to conflict in the future. In any war in Asia, the Koreans and Japanese will act as “meat” to be distributed, while the secret elite of America will divide the money. and so that the people do not become indignant, it is necessary to instill hatred of China, North Korea and Russia - to convince them as much as possible of the aggression of these countries, so that in the future in a war they will have no doubts about what they are fighting for.
