Goodbye 2023, and Happy 2024 everyone! Grab yourself a piece of paper and pen, or open your phone's notepad, as we'll be playing a game mid-video. And a big thanks to Dan for being part of the King Kogi channel. He isn't keen to be on camera, so this is a rare end of the year treat.

Happy New Year Martina, Dan and everyone onboard the King Kogi Spaceship. So grateful to you Martina and the lovely community you’ve built here. See you in 2024!
Last we saw him Dan was like full of baby bro energy but now he exudes ike-oji vibes, all the while maintaining the genuine and kind personality. My, how time flies. 😮
@@sreliata can't they be friends? like... why do they need to be a couple? for the record, Dan has been helping Martina for a long while, even before King Kogi.
Oh man, I still remember the slow build up/teaser videos to the reveal of Dan when you first moved to Japan! Those episodes were so fun so seeing him again now makes my heart so full!
2023 has been so rough for me. I have lost friends, I have dropped out of my Masters, got a job, and currently getting my life together. Feeling a lot like a character development arc, ngl. Happy it came to an end, but also happy to made it through. I hope everyones 2023 was better and filled with happy memories, good food and love and friends. May your 2024 be full of laughter, success, friends and family, cuddly pets, incredible snacks, sunshine and lush green. Happy 2024.
Omg, I might join you in the dropping out of a Master's soon. Been a hellish end-of-year. Happy year of the dragon to you, hopefully we can burn all the bullshit remnants of the previous year to the ground in one breath.
Had a similar got-out-of-school-and-started-working dealio back two years ago... Very stressful at the time. Was mourning the loss of what I thought I wanted for a while, but.. Waaay happier now. Much less anxious and enjoying life, so! All the best and good vibes to you!!!
Sorry, that sounds like a rough ride. It’s easy to say now, but you’ll get through it and be better for it (hard as right now might be!). Onwards and upwards!
I hope for a healing relaxing 2024 for you ❤️ my sisters best friend of 25 years passed away suddenly, a few of us were laid off, it has been rough 💔 But I’m glad you’re here ❤️ may your 2024 be calm and healing!!
Thanks 😭 After viewing the footage later, I felt ugh…. 😩 especially bad looking in this video as we were using a wide camera lens, but I was hoping my little hair braid rosette would look cute from a side angle. Thanks for noticing 💕
What a refreshing video with two individuals who seem to click - nothing wrong with a person who has a British accent! Thank you for everything that you have done and shared this year. Best wishes for 2024. Being a follower since the 'EatYourKimchi' era, it is so nice to see how things have evolved for the better. Keep it going and I am sure 2024 will be a great era for you and Dan.
Thank you Martina and Dan for all your work this year on the King Kogi airship! Truly this community is one of the best I’ve ever been part of. Have a healthy and happy new year everyone! On to 2024 let’s go!
It's nice to see Dan on camera (totally understand why he's not comfortable tho) and to know you two are still working together. He's an amazing photographer. Happy new year!!!
Always appreciated when Dan decides to try being on camera. As a mega introvert I understand how hard it must be. I appreciate the New Year's video from you guys and hope to see more of you both in 2024. I'm just happy we can see at least one of your support beams and know you've got a huge ally in your corner to help you when you need it. Altho even in the previous situation, Dan was still important, of course. Just now even more so lol
I understand Dan not wanting to be on camera…I have loads of video and pics without me in them. Happy new year to you both. Here’s to a wonderful 2024🎉
I rarely comment but wanted to take this opportunity to say thank you for a lovely 2023, Martina and King Kogi team :) Your videos always bring me (and a lot of others!) tons of joy and have gotten me through a lot of rough days. Wishing you all a lovely 2024.
While I was living in Japan I searched for CROD stickers everywhere I went, but especially in Hamamatsu where I lived. I didn't find one until my last day there. It was a nice little end to that chapter of my life.
2023 was insane, I feel like january was a few days ago. I've lost my grandmother and my mother within the same week at the beginning of this year. I had plans to get back to uni, at that point. So from there it was a rush to get the paperwork done, help my father and brother put our family owned business back on track. Filling the application and finding sponsors for uni. Sending my younger sister to the foreign school she wanted to attend. Moving to a new city. I can't believe I managed to do it all, currently preparing my first round of exams in 2 weeks. 💪 2023 was the year of fear and stress, hopefully 2024 will be more sweet.
I am so excited to see King Kogi going forward! Thank you so much for such a wonderful year of learning new things with you and being able to see another culture! Big thanks to Dan as well! Honestly my year would not be the same without you both and the whole king kogi community. It's been so amazing to see this channel grow and I know in 2024 it's going to get even better!
My mother has been struggling with chronic illnesses and passed away the 29th of Dec. I just woke up feeling sick and found out I’m positive for COVID! I’ll be happy to see 2023 come to a close.
Oh man, my mom also passed away from a chronic illness on the 10th of Dec and I also tested positive for COVID this past week so it's been a doozy to say the least. I'm sorry for your loss and know that you're not alone ❤
Happy 2024 Martina! What a wonderfully chill video to end 2023 with. You using Kronk's camouflage technique was too funny. I'm excited for what King Kogi will become in 2024! 💖💜💕Good fortune everyone.
25:00 what's that tune? Absolutely love it! This video was the coolest, enjoyed it so much, you two are my kind of people, and that new crod sticker at 24:51, whaaa?!
Happy & healthy New Year to you both!🎉 Those of us that have been around for a while know that Dan doesn't like to be on camera. It's always nice to see him though!
I awoke to find 2024 had already happened in Japan. the party was over and here I sit, in the past, waiting, wanting for the New Day to bring a New Year. LOL Happy New Year to Everyone !!! I resolved not to make resolutions many years ago, I've never broken my resolution since. Thank You Martina, Dan and King Kogi for fun and adventure all throughout the year, looking forward to 2024. Bigg Huggs !!!!
Happy 2024! 🎉 Love to see you happy Martina! Be very healthy and I wish both of you lots of joy❤ I haven’t seen so much of Dan never I think 😀Really lovely to see him! Enjoy the New Year guys ❤

THIS FUCKING COMMENT 😭🤣
Happy New Year Martina, Dan and everyone onboard the King Kogi Spaceship. So grateful to you Martina and the lovely community you’ve built here. See you in 2024!

waait - are Dan and Martina a couple? O.O This is the first time I see dan!!
@@sreliataI believe he's a cameraman. He was in a video earlier in the year, he and Martina took us to a baseball game. :)
@@sreliata can't they be friends? like... why do they need to be a couple? for the record, Dan has been helping Martina for a long while, even before King Kogi.
@@sreliata no, he is a worker but they are pretty close I think ¿?
What does crod mean?
Wild Dan made an appearance! Thank you guys for all you did in 2023! Best wishes for 2024!
Dan trying to keep Martina in frame🤣🤣🤣🤣
He has zero practice with taking "selfie" vlog like videos haha! And I move about so much too
Oh man, I still remember the slow build up/teaser videos to the reveal of Dan when you first moved to Japan! Those episodes were so fun so seeing him again now makes my heart so full!

I gotta say the hair style in this video is ON POINT girlfriend! Definitely feeling inspired by that pretty braid rosette you got going on there!
Thanks 😭 After viewing the footage later, I felt ugh…. 😩 especially bad looking in this video as we were using a wide camera lens, but I was hoping my little hair braid rosette would look cute from a side angle. Thanks for noticing 💕

Huge thanks to Martina and Dan for all the wonderful contents in 2023. ❤🎉❤🎉
Somehow I ended up in 2x speed and I was like “that was a weird editing choice” and then I realized it was me
Haha didn’t know that was an option! 🐿️
Dan's thoughts: "sometimes being behind the camera is the better option because I don't burn my face off."
Clever boy 🦖
Thank you Martina and Dan for all your work this year on the King Kogi airship! Truly this community is one of the best I’ve ever been part of. Have a healthy and happy new year everyone! On to 2024 let’s go!
It's nice to see Dan on camera (totally understand why he's not comfortable tho) and to know you two are still working together. He's an amazing photographer. Happy new year!!!
I don’t think you’ll ever fully appreciate how much love you inspire, Martina. Wishing you everything wonderful AND MORE in 2024 ❤🎉🥂
Thank you for being willing to be on camera, Dan! It was really fun to see you both playing and hanging out!
Happy new year Martina and Dan!! 🎉❤❤🎉

I heard about the Earthquake and an upcoming Tsunami over there in Japan. I hope both of y'all are doing well.
Happy 2024 Martina! What a wonderfully chill video to end 2023 with. You using Kronk's camouflage technique was too funny.
I'm excited for what King Kogi will become in 2024! 💖💜💕Good fortune everyone.
Happy New Year! Are we not going to mention the wedding rings 🤞 19:47
Martina likes to wear rings in general, and if Dan is engaged/married it's probably to someone else given Martina is moving back to Canada.
Wow official dating video? CONGRATS!!!!
