Can people stop commenting about her accent? Her first language is Filipino (Tagalog)and her second is english. Most Filipinos KNOW how to speak english but not all can have an English accent/have perfect grammar. The important thing is that she was able to express herself and communicate clearly. It's sad she cant get that English teaching job but do people really have to be mean about it? Are we also gonna ignore the fact that she graduated with a degree in Nursing? Really hope she looks for jobs related to that. We Filipinos are v hard working and loving but its so sad that we get to experience racism and that we are looked down upon. People need to be more open and stop judging based on race. I know Korea is slowly addressing these issues. I hope Erica is doing much better now! 💗 STOP THE HATE AND THE MEAN COMMENTS. Do you get fed/paid when you hate on someone? Lol
Knackered with old / all these nut sense. Just get on with it. U’ll feel better.
The yellow headed lady from Cambodia needs to chill, Im sure at one point while living in Korea she herself could not speak Korean. She should help her out not curse her out.
Leigthanya McLean True. That Cambodian lady apparently a trying hard looking pretty woman. In fact, her hair color does not even fit her.
Leigthanya McLean and her korean isn't even that good!!!! i hate people like this cambodian lady. seriously lady if u are reading this - haha we are all laughing at how mean and awful u are.
u forgot she doesn't understand English, haha
I think some women from Cambodia and Thailand think that Filipinas are their great competitor when it comes to men. I personally experienced this. Hahaha
Shin Shin yeah Thai, Cambodian, Philippina look kinda similar and has lot of cultural similarities . So if a men is into this look and mentality it will be a hard choice I guess 😂
Husband say "i will become barbecue and his wife say "why" ? .husband say because you say thay im a pig 😂😂😂😂😂
i'm glad they talked about racism in korea. the other episodes always seem to gloss over it or pretend koreans are always so welcoming and open.
That is not racism.
world4 hypocrites then what is it?
Koreans get shot in the Philippines bro
world4 hypocrites filipino soldiers got killed in the war for South Koreans though
Jade Se True. They are indeed racist. We all have that in our culture, however, Koreans make racism as a distinct culture, which I thought appalling.
shes a good wife because she knows how to save money for her husband. Her husband seems really nice and gentle too... Please be happy always!
What's wrong of being a Filipino? I can't understand why they hate/dislike Southeast Asians so much. In the Philippines if foreigners come most of Filipinos try their best to interact but when a Filipino goes to some other countries, they won't even bother to look. This is so sad hearing her life there and have been discriminated so much just because of her nationality.😭😭😭😭
It's been nice to finally see this program show the racism the international couples have to face in Korea.
why is that woman at 24:15 giving her a hard time when she can't even speak korean properly herself.
Asha Hersi yo, i jut watch this and i'm like she kinda mean
the woman giving her a hard time is just jealous because she can't understand and speak english 😂
From what I observed, I think it's just the way she speaks (her accent maybe). And she was just stating that she can't speak English. I think it's just a case of language barrier and differences
@@ayalangs2372 it's probably her accent, but I don't think so, one of the important thing while learning Korean Language is the accent, although it's not very easy for foreigners, it's still significant because at some point intonation is different in every accent as to why it's important is because it might sound very rude for koreans. And the lady seems especially rude especially when she raised her voice and told Erica that she doesn't speak English, can't she say it nicely?
i think its just the personality of the cambodian girl.. she has a strong personality.
Hahaha, their conversation about Jiun becoming a barbecue is sooo funny I can't x'D
I think it's time for the Philippines to be tighter as well to get even with the Koreans. Tighter in all facets such as visas for students and others.
I am not happy watching the story of this poor lady. I didn't grow nor live in the Philippines, however, with the same Filipino blood running in our veins; I am so fucking pissed.
I taught once in a Korean International School somewhere in Asia and I quit after observing a disgusting reality about the Korean culture. Please don't take this in a wrong context, I just want to share for people to know that those DRAMA SCENES you watched are ironies of the KOREAN REALITY.
Second, when a Korean staffing company saw my resume in my University school board, they persuaded me to work in the SK. The first question was - are you from South America (basing it on my photo. My display pic here is not mine)? I responded that I'm originally from the Philippines. She further asked if I have an American passport (of course I have). As a person raised, lived, and educated in the US and finishing my Masters in Human Resource, those questions are appalling. Her rude questions engulfed me to espouse a cliche - eye for an eye; a tooth for a tooth. That said, I responded in a rude manner - "I won't even waste further my time with your crazy attitude."
I should've gone further and say, why won't you ask your fellow Koreans to pay their school debts and won't leave for us - tax payers to resolve?
Basing from all experiences and this show, I reckoned that their culture enables me not to attempt stepping in any parts of Korea. South East Asians should just stop prioritizing their entertainment industry.
Biente Singko the only sensible response here.
Biente Singko Mga tarantado ang mga yan.
Agree!
This is the true reality that everyone avoids to talk about, even Koreans... It is very common for the rich country like Korea to discriminate people, especially Filipinos.
24:15 wtf with that yellow-haired woman, did she really had to do that and make Erica feel bad about herself?
Well Erica did'nt finish her job, and I think the blond woman really dose'nt understand english thats why she was asking for someone to translate for her (the assistant manager). And with Erica's Korean level she should've been able to say "Wait and I will give you the rest of them" easily. Maybe Erica got nervous and started to speak English instead.
kwells1111
she literally yelled at her and that was really unnecessary
My supervisor is from a different country and English is my second language, so sometimes we don't understand each other. Sometimes things like these happen when I misplace papers or I try to ask papers from her, but we just end up being confused like they (on the show) we're. I can see why it would be frustrating, but it's not something to yell about. Could be that she was having a bad day and that confusion was just enough for her. Working in an office can be suffocating!!!
She did'nt do her job right and her superior's can't understand her, and her superior's know that she can speak enough Korean to make small responses. That must be pretty frustrating so I understood why she raised her voice; I thought she was speaking more loudly so that someone would hear come over and translate. Thats usually how it works in an office job.
kwells1111 well, to be fair, it seems most of the people in that office are not Korean (or that's the way they made it sound) so she should really expect that. But I think her tone may be a cultural thing. I'm Swiss and I used to work with a lot of German people and I used to think they were really rude but then I realised that they had no ill-intention and that it was just a cultural thing. So maybe there was no ill-intention to what she was saying and it's just the way she speaks as someone who also has Korean as a second language.
The furnitures look pretty and brand new tho. I don’t think shes stingy at all, I think she’s being practical. But i also think that she needs to loosen up a bit, to have fun sometimes.
Finally more asians on the show.
And I hope she realizes that the problem is definitely not her accent, but her poor grammar. Since she has a spousal visa, she can definitely find work as an assistant English teacher but the pay will definitely be much lower.
I want you to know how it makes me feel. I feel motivated, to do good, better. I feel motivated to keep going, keep pushing and trying until I become a person I have always dreamt myself to be. Thank you ^^ for reminder not to give up. I'm praying for you and I mean it.
Erika Han It does make me sad that someone with lots of experience can't get the job because he/she is not a native speaker.
One of my co-workers is also from the Philippines and she gets paid about $200 less than I do even though she has the certificates and has been teaching for over 5 years while I don't have any certificates nor do I have much experience. I was honestly surprised too.
But I really wish you luck. I can see that you're trying hard. I think you can learn Korean faster now that you're in Korea. Good luck!
Erika Han you should star vlogging.
I think people should also recognize the fact that even though most filipinos could speak english, the only time they could speak the language usually is in school unless they grew up mixing both filipino (or any other dialect) and english. We only have limited times to actually practice the language. So I could completely understand Erika and her difficulty in forming sentences. & also, i believe that not all filipinos are confident in speaking english and so when someone speaks to them in english, it takes time for them to formulate a perfectly constructed sentence and then they’ll feel anxious to make the person they’re talking to wait for their response and so they just try to blurt their answers quickly. Hehe.
She seems like a great teacher but her english is weak unfortunately
I want you to know how it makes me feel. I feel motivated, to do good, better. I feel motivated to keep going, keep pushing and trying until I become a person I have always dreamt myself to be. Thank you ^^ for reminder not to give up. I'm praying for you and I mean it.
good luck erika!
cubrecontumanto Jesus Lol..you're just saying that because you're also a Filipino like her. Her English is good enough for those who don't speak English at all but she is not fitted to teach at a Korean English Academy with her poor accent and grammar. The kids' parents probably spend hundreds of dollars every month so their kids can get a head start on English and it's no surprise that the boss wanted to hire a more fluent speaker without an accent.
Erika Han Fighting Erika! You can always improve your English as well as Korean. Never give up! You will not know the results of your hard work if you're never willing to try!
cubrecontumanto Jesus LOL my bad. I thought PR meant Philippines. It's a mere mistake and I read what you wrote perfectly, so you want me to go back to school for that??? LMAO pathetic. Alien? Have you gone bonkers? Was that supposed to be an insult? I'm sorry, but what are you on LMAO
Her husband looks so pretty and feminine. His face looks so nice and smooth
At last, someone from the Philippines! :D
Ana Katrina Ikr! I saw the thumbnail and instantly knew she was Filipina
as southeast asian ( indonesian) i experienced the same when i was in Amman,ppl was looking at me differently esp when i went to restaurants they look at me like im a poor and cant afford to pay. sometimes my driver have to come to restaurant and explain that im his madam,then the waitress treat me differently :(
but that guy thoooo HELLLOOOO 5:26 one ticket to korea please?!
BloodSugarBabyShesMagik hahaha i feel you 😏
xD i laughed so much thank you
PewDieSumii lol i dont see her comment anymore, guess she deleted it
I always wondered how come there are no indonesians/filipinos/thai etc people on this show, as kpop seems to be really popular there and it's a lot easier for them to go to korea than europeans, let's say
What does kpop have to do with this show... you think people move to a new country or marry someone for kpop.
LMAO! You'd be surprised! There are tales of women moving there due to Hallyu and being disappointed.
LMAO! You'd be surprised! There are tales of women moving there due to Hallyu and being disappointed.
she sound childish and her english is bad. I'm sorry. she needs a bit of understanding her partner and not be self centered. but can't blame shes only been in Korea for 6 months. "I feel so down" lol cute couple tho I wish them love everyday.
Thank you for watching.
I want you to know how it makes me feel. I feel motivated, to do good, better. I feel motivated to keep going, keep pushing and trying until I become a person I have always dreamt myself to be. Thank you ^^ for reminder not to give up. I'm praying for you and I mean it.
her husband is so nice, where can you find that kind of husband...even if you not rich or etc, you will find happiness in life if you get nice husband... stay happy erika :))
in india, people r much more welcoming and many can speak english..or at least try english to help others...korea is a close minded country actually...
they are literally goals...
I hope she can learn korean quickly so she can communicate with her mother in law!!!
They made me tear up, they are such a cute couple. I love how genuine they are with each other and I am sure everything worked out for the best.
ok..I'm Filipina myself, this is my own opinion. She is smart (considering she has a nursing degree) and cheerful BUT her grammar, pronounciation, accent are poor. She cannot even pronounce "Philippines" properly..I don't blame the school director for not hiring her..
Paul Korzenko but there are some white Americans there who do not have speak words correctly, display incorrect grammar etc but still get hired as an English teacher. This is true because I have friends in South Korea who teach and know personally. Her race/background is what affected her getting that position.
I'm actually logged in on youtube under my hubby's account, that is why it's showing "paul korzenko" but I'm Filipina. Anyways, you are right. My husband has a college degree and is very particular with grammar and pronounciation and he's bothered when he hears americans talk with wrong grammar.
English is not my first language, Filipino/tagalog is my 1st (but I also speak 3 other dialects, almost like different language of its own) sometimes, some of my caucasian friends here in America write me email with wrong grammar, wrong spelling.
Maybe they get hired because of the accent at least? and if they are teaching elementary kids, all they need is the basic grammar really..
oh yah I just remember, I have a friend here in the US who is a full blooded Filipino but grew up here in the US and has a teaching degree (no accent at all) He was in Korea for many years teaching English, so I don't think it's a race issue, not at this case atleast.
PK Zenk she shouldn’t have skipped her English classes.
I don't mean anything bad but it's pronunciation.
A fellow Filipina on my favorite show! I'm seriously cheering on for Erica. I'm glad her husband is incredibly sweet and supportive of her. Hopefully one day she will improve both in her Korean and English skills and that she'll get a job that she really wants. Erica, kaya mo yan! Fighting!
I also really liked how they discussed about racist situations in Korea. Southeast Asia is hugely underrepresented compared to East Asia. We're seen as the "little brown farmer neighbors" of East Asia and I sincerely hope this stereotype goes away at some point in the future. South Korea and Philippines have a good diplomatic relation and many South Koreans visit here for tourist spots, for jobs, education etc. but racism towards us Filipinos in East Asia is still highly evident. What happened in the Korean Embassy when they asked Erica if she's moving to Korea to escape the Philippines... that says a lot about how East Asians view us. Like BIH Philippines ain't all that bad. We're just not as economically advanced as y'all are.
Don't shun us under an inferior light anymore, please. Peace.
so weird hearing asians saying "fighting" as a encouragement because no english native says that
when somebody says "fighting" that's means 2 guys will fight
also funny when they were t-shirts with innapropiate english words or phrases but they think it's just cool to have a t-shirt with a english word
@@universesays1842 The Korean for "Go for it!" sounds like fighting. That's why she said Fighting. 화이팅
This video and comment is 6 years old but the comment still holds so much truth.
Waaaa finally I've been waiting for someone to guest on here from the Philippines 😄 I miss my home country. Fighting from USA!!!
Though your grammar is not that good, at least you can communicate.. just practice speaking and you will be good at it.
While watching this, I think, it is time for the Philippines to do the same with Korean visitors. BE MORE STRICT! Do not allow them to visit our country if they are not good in English...Filipinos treat you well. Why Korea? Why you are like that? Racism and discrimination is in your blood.
Now, I come to realize that being a Filipino is better than Korean..We have good attitude and deep respect for others.
Yo! Watching this in 2021 and I hope this couple are doing better! I just find this part 34:55 super funny because it felt like "Tangina?" was the perfect Filipino translation. HAHAHA
I love them so much they're so cute 😢
Thank you ^^ 😘😍
No hate Ate, pero sana nagFilipino ka na lang. Sana naging proud ka sa pag gamit ng Filipino language. Nag-English ka nga kaso medyo di maganda ung grammar, nilagyan tuloy ng subtitles pa sa English kahit nag-English ka na.
hahahaha naloka ako sa comment na ito. anyway, I did wish that she spoke Filipino na lang. I'm sorry pero kinikilabutan talaga ako sa grammar and pronunciation ni ate gurl. anyway, somehow I can relate to her. I did teach English as an ESL teacher to Koreans before and I recently just moved here in England. so alam ko na ang mag-move sa ibang bansa ay sobrang hirap. plus, foreigner pa ang asawa nya. ang kaso lang is that napaghahalata kasi na hindi sya sanay mag-English based on her grammar and accent. hindi naman sa perpekto ako pero i feel bad as well. sana hindi isipin ng mga nakakapanuod nitong video na ito na ganun magsalita ang mga pinoy. like seriously.
18:00 They're such a cute and funny couple!😍 "I will become a barbecue" 🍢🐷 I can't handle their cuteness!😂😂😂
"You married because you wanted to escape IN the Philippines"????? And she wants to become an English teacher?? Please try to find some other job than teaching English.
The narrow minded thing is, being native speaker doesn't make your english better, just because you speak it more doesn't necessarily mean your grammar and utilisation of the language is the most accurate. Most native speakers with bad grammar got jobs as english teachers because they have the accent. Singapore wouldn't be considered as a native english speaking country but on average its citizens speaks much better and proper english than the average Americans.
Korea needs to learn to be more open minded and break their stereotypes - not my words, but words of koreans I met who works in Australia/ Singapore.
I love them. They’re a cute couple. She is very assertive and her husband is very shy. So I think they're a great tandem. It's okay, there's discrimination everywhere. You just need to live happy. Don't mind other people. Fighting!
She is soooo nice so lovely - and this couple is soooo heartwarming to watch
I know it's polite to know how to speak even a bit of korean when you live ther but she knows english too and thats spoken worldwide. That was kind of rude to say "please call the manager I don't know whats she's saying because I don't know English' what abt koreans that learn English but are too shy to use it so they don't know at all? They shouldn't be so harsh on people that at least try than be ignorant
damn she has one lucky husband! he is such a sweetheart
A little unreasonably cheap but cute couple
I think its because she's always converting their expenses to peso:)
"I will become barbecue"
"Why would you become barbecue? You're human"
"But you called me a pig before" 🐷 😂😂😂😂
her English kind of bothers me lol
Paitence is the key try turning off the subtitle, you will understand her more clearly (its just that you would not understand the korean haha)
But your grammar is bad as well , you say her English is really bothering me lol
Her English is good and she's so cute!
Not everyones first language is english so of course she may not be perfect at it but she's learning and honestly in sure she has improved all throughout the years especially having to learn both english and korean.
She has a Better grammar than you lol 😂 I suggest use a shortcut term like Is kinda* 😊 so I'm worried that you're judging someone who's better than you hahah
Do not control your husband too much he might get tired of you remember he has different culture and don’t call him pig even if it’s only a joke be nice to him he seems a nice guy
Me conmovió tanto ver esta hermosa pareja que solo deseo que les vaya muy bien
I hope Koreans remember how the Philippines came and help south koreans during the war
Help is never one way. Till today, South Korea has been supplying and donating supplies to the Philippines armed force.
im from philippines and im happy i watch this part of this episode
now i know how hard to live in korea if your are foreigner
but somehow we pass all the challenges there
still want to go there
Erica:I watched the show on the Internet...
*KBS translates* : I watched the show online
...what? How do you mess up English subtitles when the person is speaking English...nvm I'm confused gn.
i mean .... both are correct....
The only problem with erica is she’s not fluent in English that is why companies don’t want to hire her. Despite that she’s amazing woman. She’s so brave to live in a country that she doesn’t even know how to communicate well. But there’s still room for improvement. Besides she’s still new there and she’s learning the language. I wish she improve her English grammar and one day she will. Erica fighting!!!
freaking squealed when she said her husband is her dream so freaking cute
i thought she was latina when she first appeared
They are so cute I laugh so much watching this episode
North American accent?! Have they heard a rough Texan or Cajun accent?! Have they ever seen the movie Waterboy?! There’s people in America that talks like that! 😂😂
The subtitles are in correct grammar and sentences instead, lol...
I want to go there but not to think to live there. I just saw the real Korea in the mouth of my fellow countrymen. 😂😁😀😂
As a Filipino I never Be Ashamed being Filipino, I'm Kind to the people who knows how to respect and kind and I'm Rude from the People who's Rude and Disrespectful... Atleast we filipinos have the most sexiest accent in Asia compare to other Asian countries who really don't know how to speak and express their english even their teachers are from US or Europe...So Don't judge us Filipinos if you don't know us...
I don't think her English is that bad she probably hadn't much practice speaking in an foreign country. I was like her after not being able to speak with an english speaker for at least a 1-3 months. I blanked out on certain words and it took me some time to recover. She just lack practice since she's been there for 6 months and that's a decent time to to forget some English especially if she's turning into a trilingual.
You are right.
Yes definitely but some of her grammar is quite bothering me and some of her pronounciations
I'm Filipino, but I don't know why she got a broken English, yet she got a degree.
Look, not everyone in this god-forsaken country is as privileged as others to exprience quality education. It's this money based system that hinders everyone from getting equal job opportunities due to the huge gap of inconsistencies between private and public institutions. And even only a small portion of private institutions offer quality education. In addition to that, her degree was for nursing, not journalism, humanities or mass communications which would've challenged her English a lot and improved more if she'd taken those. Taking a nursing degree meant English was last on her list of priorities because linking verbs doesn't help anyone fix a sprained ankle. She took English more like as a "side-line" since she only took short courses with a small group of people.
It's not that I'm pretending and turning a blind eye on the fact that her English is mediocre(it's intelligible, but she does too much of a mistake in one sentence), but she definitely has room for improvement.
That’s so bad🤦🏼♀️they don’t hire her because of her accent and because she pilipina.. well mostly korean go to phillipines to study English. They don’t mind there teacher have accent.. that’s so racist of them🤦🏼♀️🤦🏼♀️🤦🏼♀️
Anybody know the brand of the bald guy 's dog jacket, pleaaaaase?
Wow a lot of people are coming at this women for trying to learn 2 other languages in a country she barely knows but meanwhile most of you guys can’t even speak one right. But go off I guess
I wanted to cry when Erica was searching for a job as a teacher. They ALWAYS look for native speakers and even select them when they don't have teaching experience. One of my dreams is to go to korea and I planned to major english language to find jobs opportunities as an english teacher but i found out they always want native speakers :(
Can you blame them? They can hire Korean people to teach English, so why bother and get foreign teachers that are not native?
Elisa Risconti That would be great, but the thing is that they hire people that don't have teaching experience. I don't say all schools/institutes do that but is something common
You can learn how to teach within a year, you cannot become native in that time.
Shadia Carrion, they only try to hire native English teachers because the Korean immigration will only give E2 teacher's work visa's to those from English speaking countries (Canada, USA, UK, South Africa, Ireland, Australia) with 4 year University degrees. It's not the schools, it's the Korean immigration laws which the schools have to abide by.
Finally, Filipino is is the house. Fight fight girl. kaya mo yan. 😉
practice makes you better.
Is there any pilipina here in my nieghbor charles. Except this..
they even put the right English subtitles when she speaks English. wtf!!!!
because her english is not all the way correct... she says it in the right order but certain words that mean the samething she just dont know where to use them... and she cant really form words in english when shes fustrated... she does tend to skip over words... her english is at a intermediate-low level....
future lane True. Mostly wrong grammar too.
future lane cannot even pronounce our country correctly.
We are not native English, but our English is perfectly for Business. 😛
#BusinessEnglish101
Sadly, racism is still prevalent in korea. They're not just racist to other asian people esp southeast asians, they're also racist to koreans as well. I've watched a story time from terrytv about him not being hired as an english teacher just because he's half korean even though he's half white and grew up in america(an english native speaker). He also got treated unfairly compared to other white english teachers.
why i feel like the husband can speak tagalog aswell, maybe he learned english in philippines
You two deserve all the happiness in the world..
it makes me mad that she couldn't get a job as a teacher cuz of her accent? ugh that sucks. good luck!!!
Maria Lagunas not the accent,listen to her carefully,her grammar and construction of sentence is not good.
She made sooo many mistakes, she cannot even make a phrase in the past sentence. I think they were trying to be nice by saying that her problem was the accent. I don't wanna sound mean (especially when I can't speak English well myself), but she can't teach English when her level is low-intermediate in the best case.
Elisa Risconti correct
She didnt get the job because she couldnt speak english properly. Her grammar was all over the place!
I think she would be in a better position if she applied for positions in the daycare instead. It looks like she's pretty good in handling and interacting with kids.
North American accent sucks anyway. I guess it always happens in ESL countries, they want the native look not the actual competence. Goodluck Erika!
That's the mistake of the other country that they don't know.the filipinos are genuine, they understand all kind of people who speak in english,even if there's any kind of accen't ,filipinos are fastes't learner..people.O:-)
Filipinos are naturally so funny 😁❤
you dont need to be fluent in english to communicate to others!!so stop saying she's not fluent in english!!even foreigners who fluent in english still having hardtime communicating in with others..
the Cambodian one she is acting like big boss if i ma near by her i will through out from there
This husband is so sweet and loving, despite the shortcomings of his wife. ;-;
finally a filipino!!
Just so you know, blonde woman, you should be nicer to people who have trouble speaking the language. For sure you've been like her at some point.
Nice start to the weekend. I love the show and cast you see everyone's struggles learn so much. I know Korea has the motto of doing everything fast work hard play hard. They could stand to have Erica's attitude she's willing to do the job with with a pleasant work attitude towards the task and fellow employees. Well there is a supervisor in the clip a bit bitchy everyone learns at a different pace.
i used to have a filipina lady as my english teacher... my colleagues are from Philippines too and they all have like great english. so i always thought people from there can speak english very well... i think for non-native english speaker, grammar mistake is fine but tbh hers is like very bad. i hope she will not only improve her korean but also her english.
I agree. I noticed that too. I am a Filipino and English is my second language. Her grammar slips are too glaring and the accent is too thick. She needs to neutralize it at least to get a teaching job.
HAHAHA, she is so funny. I honestly feel so bad her husband but I understand her at the same time. As a Filipino, I understand that she would want to save money for other things but I feel so bad for her husband cause he just want some things but she just feels like it’s too expensive for them. They are so lucky to have each other, especially Erica because her husband really understands her.
discreminition was always there..people judge very eassy....i don't understand why..they don't know that pilipino people are very talented..smart. respectful...what the he'll what's wrong with you people.
Marunong na kaya xang mag korean ngaun? English kaya fluent na xa? curious aq
Ok,it will be hot...but you know...i will be barbeque
Why barbeque?you're human
You said i am a pig
😂😂😍so cute hahahhaha
jash pink o
It's so hard to get a job as an English teacher in countries like South Korea and Japan if you're not a native speaker despite your good qualification.
Erica's colleagues should have been more patient with her. I am sure they were all in the same boat when they were new in Korea
LOL...their train in the mornings reminded me of how i go to work everyday..xDDD always jam packed in singapore.
But the trains and public transport systems here in the Philippines are WAAAAAAY WORSE hahaha at least the people there aren’t sweaty. That’s the worst like I would leave my house looking fresh and arrive at work looking like roadkill
I thought her English was not perfect,needs more improvement but not bad compared to other countries.About her accent I can totally say she's from region/island who speaks native dialect which is Bisaya/Visayan .When she speaks she sounds like the way Visayan native talks like myself 14 years ago.Since I've live in United States for a while now,my accent changed just like any other Americans.Give her a chance not bash her and Yes Philippines are very good English Speakers.
Y do S.Koreans attitude as if they r much superior among Asians...when in fact during the war the Philippines did a lot of effort to save their country. Just reminding them. Thank you. GOD Bless the whole 🌍 world.. & the entire human race.
Did we watch the same video? When did South Koreans show an attitude of superiority? Is this coming from your inferiority complex against the people there? Yes, Philippines did send troops to SK, but so did other 22 nations. Moreover, SK have been and still is one of the greatest donors and suppliers of the Philippine’s army. I’m leaving this comment because I’ve been seeing way too much rude and generalizing comments in this thread. I’m not even Korean, but still it kinda hurts me to see so many Filipinos attacking SK for this short clip.
Shez just been there for 6 mnths and im sure she has way to go as a foreigner but so far shez really doing her best, she will get used to it eventually
Her english is not bad, only when you talk to people who doesn't speak the language, and doesn't care if your grammar is right or wrong. I have nothing against Erica, because I'm also a Filipino. But when you teach, you really have to be very good in english with the right grammar and all. I heard in Korea, or maybe even in other countries, when they hire teachers who can speak english, they usually get those who are authentic. Did you see the other teacher in that school, that's what I mean.
Seems to me that racism in Korea against darker skinned people is being identified by the open minded few as being closed minded and is something that’s not frowned upon. It also seems to me that most Koreans would always think that when u came from Philippines or any southeast Asian countries they automatically think that you’re poor or you married a Korean man to be well off, and that’s funny considering that Erica here is better educated and her family is more well off than her husband, sad.
It’s not their fault, because Philippines is well known for their brides pretty much all over the world.
i'm so proud of her :) we Filipinos are very welcoming not just with the american's but also with other countries, that's why its hard for me to saw her situation being criticize by others specially her office mate the girl with blonde hair.....
See some Khmer stuff : YASS
I love this couple :)))
It's sad that she can't really teach even though she has a TESOL certificate, but of course they'll want native speakers to teach the standard accents.... it's not much of a surprise because that's how it is everywhere really.
I wonder if she could imitate an American accent, if the potential employers could allow that? I've seen British vloggers do that before, but perhaps her accent and grammar is just too insurmountable for them.
it's unlikely since her english grammar isn't perfect. All the big employers of english teachers in korea only hire native speakers due to this reason sadly.
she is a good wife
she knows their budget limits and doesnt nag for expensive items like most wives do
she helps him a lot
the problem is that its not becoz she's a filipino but the way she speaks english..
christie claus but it doesn't mean they shouldn't be nicer to her. Some people are just judgemental and insensitive
whats wrong with how she speaks it? She speaks it in a way thats more undrstandable actually for those who doest have english as their first language..
they are so lovely
AWW seeing this I am having second thoughts about South Koreas narrow minded damn
