@@superlove9955 Not in this case I don't think. As a BM myself, I didn't sense that. China has a history of people preferring pale skin & having darker skin meant that you worked outside doing manual labor. In this case I think she equated him being an athlete to him constantly being outside. I could be wrong, but that was the vibe I got of her intentions. She probably didn't realize he was mixed.
@@superlove9955 he is mixed she probably thought he was tanned.. there are asians that are as dark as he is that are fully asian.. she wasn't being rude or racist obviously as u can tell her demeanor..
The young teens looking at him like he has three heads and laughing is crazy. People act like mixed kids don’t exist everywhere in this day and age. Love to see the reactions though. Keep it up bro.
I think it's more so the fact that he speaks mandarin to begin with. Most Chinese kids who are raised in the states tend to understand mandarin better than they speak it so the fact that he speaks it so well surprises them. The fact that he's also half black doing so surprises them more.
They ain’t lying. He has a very standard Beijing accent and they sound like southerners so have a not so standard and less strong grasp of “standard” Mandarin. Mandarin basically has a northern bias because they took the Beijing dialect - from the north - and made it the official standard for the whole country. 🤷♂️
It’s because Chinese is a collection of languages and dialects. Mandarin is the official language, but most people (especially older people) will have an accent because they speak another local dialect/ language besides Mandarin. June’s Mandarin has no accent compared to the older guy, so he meant that June’s pronunciation is better than his (which is true).
This is the best way to do a channel like this. JUST TALK TO PEOPLE. That's it. Nobody else does that. Everyone else is trying to trick people or surprise them or make gimmick video, but you being half Chinese and just talking to your people... that's more interesting than any other channel dealing with social interactions of this kind. Keep doing your thing, fam.
Yeah, laoshu505000 was my favorite because of this reason. Just going around and talking to people in their native languages. Still go back and watch his videos from time to time. Just recently found this channel and I've genuinely been enjoying it
Those fellas weren’t lying either when they say his Chinese is better. He has very standard Beijing accent (Mandarin has a northern bias 🤣), and they sound like southerners, so have less of a strong grasp of “standard” Chinese. Jun is being polite of course.
bro please post more your mandarin is the best 😭, also I feel like its so obvious that your half Chinese by looking at you I don't know why they can never tell.
@@KAYKILAYYY no?? Are you out of your mind? (Maybe ur racist too that would explain why) She literally said he was a basketball player because he was black and that would « explain » why he is not white.
"you're a basketball player, it explain the tone of your skin"... yeah... they were nice but i swear to you that hearing those kind of comment everyday of your life is realy really annoying.
First off it’s good to see you again bro. I really enjoy watching you just being your authentic self in these videos. The standard reaction videos are everywhere, and that will always be there for you. But what makes you different is that you can just be yourself, this isn’t a “bit” or just a hustle. Thanks for being authentic 🫡 looking forward to more soon bro
I look at these young men and can't understand why they are still surprised seeing someone that doesn't look like them speaking the language knowing the world is so mixed today The other thing is if we look at you there are clearly some Asian features
It’s maybe bc 2nd generation kids in America barely speak their parents’ language and if they do, it’s usually with an American accent, so to hear a young person speaking with a perfect Chinese accent in America that is also half black is rare. Those guys are secretly giving June his props bc they prob wish they had his perfect accent. I am 1.5 generation Korean and I barely speak Korean and it is so American accented it’s laughable so if I heard anyone half Korean speaking perfect Korean and with a Seoul accent too, I’d be so jealous I’d be looking at them too- but looking at them with respect! ❤
Glad to see you posting videos. U are inspiring making me want to learn Chinese since I speak fluent Cantonese so it’s not too hard for me. Keep up the good work. I miss my hometown of NY which I grew up in manhattan Chinatown which I also miss the food. Much love here from Chicago.
I’ve been watching your videos. Of course I’m impressed by your language skills but you also seem kind and humble. It’s nice to watch. Thanks for sharing.
6:57 $6.00USD!? Wow, he gave you a great deal, especially considering the amount of salmon meat he included. That would easily cost like $12 at my local cheap grocery store (which is bad quality).
@@kokonut2673 It's 8 dollars USD lol, he's in New York. They just say "kuai" because it's not really common to say "dollars" in Chinese. $8 is pretty normal anywhere in North America
Really loving your videos man. Been super into the whole bilingual surprise genre since the early days of Laoshu but until you started uploading I haven't gravitated towards a channel the way I do yours. Hopefully things continue kicking off in a good way and you find more time for videos.
AWESOME!! This cool that you learn to speak both your parents language. I didn't realize Chinese people are so judgmental. Never judge a book by its cover you'll be surprised. You're so handsome too!!
4:54 "uhm ngga?" had me dead, and yes mixed myself i know this is a word in not only mandarin but also Japanese to my knowledge, sht just had me laughin.
Mashallah good videos brother. I enjoy your humbleness and apporoach to your videos. Especially saying bismilla before you eay and not eating pork. Alhamdulilah its not easy being a muslim. Msy Allah bless you brother, ammen. Respect
Hey June, Spanish native speaker here, can you please tell me what I should focus on to improve my English accent? Ive been living in NY for over 20 years (since I was 10) and my English accent is still thick as hell (i dont sound like a New Yorker; I sound like someone still learning english). You mastered the American accent in such a short amount of time that I feel like there must be a technique or procedure that you use that could help anyone with this. Would you please give me any tips? I would appreciate this for the rest of my life.
Auntie thought bro is full Chinese and is only tanned due to playing ball😂😂
and they think due to being healthy
I didn’t think that was funny. They said that because he was black that’s why tan skin. They were shocked and he can speak their language.
@superlove9955 did you sense bad intentions in that old woman? People are so sensitive

Yes, I agree. And thank you for sharing your videos June My💯 percent true.

Sushi guy realized you actually are Chinese by birth. His whole demeanor was amazing
I have heard "you speak chinese better than my kids" I have never heard "you speak chinese better than me" thats wild.
Probably Mandarin is his 2nd language and always spoke Fuzhouhua (for example) at home.
He grew up in Beijing
They ain’t lying. He has a very standard Beijing accent and they sound like southerners so have a not so standard and less strong grasp of “standard” Mandarin.

I agree…maybe they don’t see many mixed w/ asian and black people
Exactly lmao
cause blasian are really rare even in America
Because the way they see themselves is different than in reality.
The 2 ladies at the beginning were so nice and chill.

Refreshing the first two clips didn't comment on your "good Chinese" ;)
aint never clicked so fast
I went inside an English restaurant and spoke English , nobody was impressed for some reason 😅
4:54 😂
I love your videos and that you dont need a persona to be likable
As salaamu alakum. Good video akhi. Be aware that the beef and chicken should be halal only. Barak Allah feek.
