Nothing will rip your heart out and make you feel like dying like when you come back and your kid doesn’t recognize you. Doesn’t matter that you tried your best to Skype over sketchy internet while on deployment…I remember when I first got back and we met in the shopette because we got in late…he was scared of me. My heart plummeted. I know it’s not his fault, but it broke my heart.
I do hope you and your son eventually reconnect.
I cannot BEGIN TO UNDERSTAND the hardship you go through as soldiers.
My father fought in WWII as paratrooper in the Philippines on Corregidor -- fighting the Japanese (long before I was born).
Now, thank God, we can watch videos of soldiers from other countries and, hopefully, feel respect, NOT hatred.
I love these videos!
Amen.
I could not imagine. 😭
Allow them to get over the shock of seeing you in front of them. Also, the kids have to withhold their emotions in case you do not return home. It is a psychological way of seeing it.
These surprise meetings are arranged by friends and family who are there in the US. Schools and businesses are usually happy to help arrange the surprise.
Yes, and they often do it at an event that is already going on. Like a halftime at a sports event.
@@wishingb5859 Sometimes it is organized by the commanders as a PR event. Especially when it involves Major sporting leagues (such as NHL puck drops).
“Fun” fact about the ones done at major sporting events, the military nearly always pays the quite a bit (to the venue, sports teams, etc) to make those splashy reunions happen.
@@SuperLadyDanger that depends. Most venues will waive a fee if it's parents reuniting with children, spouses are where they're kind of like, "eh, it's not as heartwarming as say a 5 year screaming and crying because they missed their mommy/daddy.
@@kaylathigpen9865 That’d be nice & the differentiation between significant others & kids is understandable (though that waived fee could arguably then be used for tax deduction purposes, making for a less than altruistic gesture).
My son surprised me. I was so over come with emotion I couldn’t even stand up. Tears shaking all over and couldn’t speak. It was over two years and halfway around the world. And he was standing in front of me. After 4 years he’s back in the states. Still in military. We still are surprised that we can call on same time zone. God bless our military ❤️
God bless military parents like you! 💜💜💜
@@ashleygwynn516 Amen.
As an American veteran I will say every reunion is emotional. Also, South Korean soldiers risk their lives the same as American. I salute them.
These two are precious / adorable. I really appreciate their smiles and showing of emotion. More videos with them please. Maybe a video of US women aviators in combat / returning home. Many females fly combat missions in jets and provide close air support in A10s and helos in hostile territory.
Why just the females? Why not us males that fly F16s and F22s?
@@heathfitzgerald363 ~ because Korea is a patriarchal culture traditionally and featuring female aviators would be a novel idea. While the number of females in SK's military are growing, the current generation would view this as an exception not the norm.
I think a video about male aviators would be awesome as well. I feel as if men in general get the short end of the stick these days. All their accomplishments are overlooked simply because they're men and if you try to give them props you get attacked for promoting toxic masculinity, whatever that means.
I take it, by your response, that you are a pilot? If so, what was the defining moment that placed you on your current career path?
The one where the kid recognized his dad just from his voice and went "daddy?" made me tear up
My husband was in the military 20 years. Even if we were apart for just a shirt time when I saw him I'd scream like a child and throw my arms around him. It creates a special bond because you know there's no guarantee he will come home. We have three daughters. They are such Daddy's girls. They are all in their 30s now. They were only in their 20s when he passed away. It's very hard without him. I'm an old woman now and I still miss him and grieve for him.
I'm so sorry for your loss. My prayers are with you
I am also so sorry for your loss. God bless you and your family. Thank you -- for your and your husband's sacrifice away from his family while he served our country.
I am so sorry for your loss...my heart hurts for you and your girls
So sorry for your lost my prayer are with you and my dear you are not and old lady. I bet you can pass for your daughters sister.
My family is an ARMY family but two sets of cousins are Navy families. They can be gone to sea for months at a time and are not able to disclose their location and usually don't know how long their deployment will be. It's nerve wracking on the whole family.
A family friend was a teacher on an aircraft carrier. She would be gone for months and she couldn’t disclose where her location either. Granted, as a civilian instructor, she didn’t have to worry about going into combat, but her family still worried about her the same since they never knew where she was, especially after the USS Cole bombing.
My dad surprised me and my cousins when he got back. He'd been overseas for almost five years and I only was able to speak with him a few times. He surprised us at school by having us dismissed early then we went to go surprise his siblings.
That's a long time!
My dad would be gone a year overseas before we were allowed to join him.
That was Okinawa and Pusan, SK.
I know the missing, though.
The reunions are sweet, but an emotional overload, too.
@@fairenough7984 It was a long time but he hadn't been deployed overseas for almost 15 years due to his high position and the fact that he wanted to see our formative years. I'm still not quite sure what his exact job was lol
An American Military member when they sign their contract to enter into the Military give their Nation a "Blank Check" which means that the Service member is willing to give all up to and including their Life to fight for the Country. US Service members are all volunteer so they know what they are willing to give for their Country.. Korean Service members are required to serve their Country for I believe 2 years where as American Service members minimum service is 3 years active with 3 yrs Reserve.. But that may have changed since I retired from the Military.. in 1995
Thank you for your service
for us military now whether it's for active duty (full time) or National Guard/Reserves (part-time) incurs a minimum eight-year service obligation not including training(bootcamp). in my case even tho i already did 4 years, i still have 4 more years in IRR act as in-active reserve.i can still get called in when they need bodies.
Finnish men are also required to serve their country but they produce highly motivated soldiers. So I do not think a volunteer army is necessarily better. I don't know much about the South Korean army, but they have a good reputation. Many apply to the military for lack of alternatives. Conscription is also more democratic, it's an assurance that the poor will not fight the wars of the rich.
@@dennislindqvist8443 yea but voluntary enlistment doesn’t necessarily mean “the poor are fighting for the rich”. Someone who volunteered will usually put in more effort than someone who was forced to drop everything and enlist into the army. Either way, both versions are good
That's quite true, except for koreans - if you didn't know that is. Military service is compulsory for all men with the exception of olympians I believe.
I was married to a man in the U.S. Army and we were stationed in Chuncheon South Korea in 1984. The most amazing experience of my life and I will forever be grateful for the opportunity. I am an American and I love culture...all cultures. All REAL Americans were raised appreciating other cultures because that is what made America great. We have way too many people in this country who only value white skin, round eyes, and the English language. You guys could teach them a thing or two.
Say It LOUDERRRR!!!!!!!
I do not know one single person in the US who only values white skin. Not one. What do you gain by making up false stories about your home country? Like you, I have spent time in Korea and love it very much, but let's be honest about how these two countries function.
@@tdexter4959 hi, I live in the south, or the Bible belt - if you will, and down here is very racist. Literally watched a 24 yr old middle eastern man get shot in front of cops by a white boy. White boy never even spent time in jail, and was never charged with murder, even though he shot the man in public, in the middle of downtown Augusta, GA (that's right, the city where the Masters golf tournament is held, we have at least two shootings a month, so safe for such an international event), in front of a crowd of around 30 people; all because he didn't like the way Ahmad looked.
Do not dare say that this country is not racist. This country was started on the genocide of Native Americans, and Africans. There are people still fighting to "resurrect the way of the old south". You wanna know what those ways are? Wife beating, and lynching.
@@kaylathigpen9865 Kayla, I grew up in the Deep South. I know all about it. I'm not denying that there are racists in the world. But I am denying that anyone I know values only white people. And I'm denying that the US is a systemically racist country. Don't bother telling me what I dare not say. I will think for myself. When I was in Korea, I heard, firsthand, numerous breathtakingly racist comments from certain Koreans. I still love Korea, and I still love the US, too. Please remember that there are people peddling lies and self-loathing because they benefit from sowing division. You don't have to deny the existence of a few bad apples in order to appreciate the good all around you.
@@tdexter4959 spoken like a true racist.
you're really going to claim that the US isn't a systematically racist country even with all the facts from the FBI stating that it is? Black men are more likely to die than white men when pulled over. Black men are more likely to go to jail for longer than their white counterparts, even if they have the same criminal record, and committed the same crime. We had to instate Equal Opportunity because white people were being hired more, and Black people weren't getting jobs even if they had the requirements. Businesses are still being reported to this day for not following EO. Black people are regularly told that their natural hairstyle is not allowed at their job, and that they MUST assimilate or lose their job. Black women experience systematic racism by always being accused of being bad mothers. A white woman can beat her child and never meet cps, but if a Black child went to school with a minor scratch, their mother is fighting to get her children back, IF she isn't sent to jail first. I've watched my Black friends be treated differently by police. I've watched Black females get assaulted, and when the police finally decided to show up, they were blamed for being assaulted. I've watched Black children get pushed off the bus at wrong bus stops because the bus driver didn't care about their note to be dropped off at their new address, while any white kid with a note was taken where the note says, EVEN if it wasn't on the route. I've watched Black boys get ARRESTED for defending themselves in a school altercation, while the white boys got protected. There were 37 witnesses to a shooting in downtown Augusta, the white boy got zero charges and was never even arrested, meanwhile Ahmad, who didn't even do anything to the white boy, was murdered.
Just because you're too ignorant to see racism, does not mean that it doesn't exist. You dont see because you don't have to deal with it. Another ignorant, typical blind male walking this earth as if he knows all.
Black people are still being murdered for having Black skin and you're trying to claim they aren't. I can list multiple Black people that died because of systematic racism. Sandra Bland, Tamir Rice (a 12 year old boy gunned down by an officer for playing with his friends), Philando Castro, Treyvon Martin, Emmit Till. There's five right off the top of my head. These people will never receive justice from this corrupt ass country. But keep living with your head in the sand.
The event you asked about was done during half time show off a basketball game. I don’t want to say it’s common here, but it’s not exactly rare either, there are clips of it happening at many kinds of sporting events.
I’ve been an US Air Force spouse for 15 years and the thing I think people often forget is the trauma the kids go through, regardless of what country they are from. By the time my eldest was 5 his dad had only spent 18 months of his life with him, all the other times he was deployed. During my husband’s 4th deployment our son stopped eating for 2 months because at age 5 it was the only way he could express that he had had enough. I still remember the relief I felt watching him run towards his dad at the airport. Videos like these make me smile and take a deep breath, so thankful videos like these are possible!
I was raised in a military family and my father served 3 tours without family and each one lasted a year. The last one he was stationed in South Korea. These homecomings bring back lots of memories.
I was about the same age the boy is at 2:43 when my father returned home from Vietnam,.To this day I can remember every detail. I know these kids will not forget when Dad came home 50 years from now.
These two young men represent their homes & families so well. It's touching to see them react so honestly and be themselves with cameras on them. Many blessings to them and to their loved ones.
These reunions get me sweaty eyed every time.
They are sweet. It is heartwarming to watch them analyzing the differences between the cultures.
I grew up in the ARMY. One time when my dad came home I had no idea who he was and why this strange man was in my house so I screamed and hid behind my mom (I was only 2 or 3 at the time and he left when I was born so I never saw him in my life before that day). In 19 years he has been with me only 9 years lmao we are still learning things about each other and how to interact but I know I wouldn't change him for anyone else.
God bless you and your dad.
My dad used almost those exact words to describe how he felt when his father finally came home. My grandfather was a Royal Marine in the second world war and into the 1950s, my dad had no idea who he was.
I was a military brat and now a veteran. My dad was deployed twice for two years and I remember his returning as something really amazing. I felt unanchored when he was gone. My Mom was great, but having a Dad was really important. I totally relate to these homecomings.
I’ll never forget my mom & dad coming home from overseas they always surprised us in some way. It was such a happy and special moment to have our parents return home to us after being away for so long. ♥️
These men were so nice, this was a sweet video! As an American and the daughter of a soldier these videos always make me cry, I never thought it could make people from other countries cry too.
You two gentlemen warmed my heart today… thank you for showing these moments with everyone… right in the feels…
Bro I know the feeling when my dad came home after a year of serving in the army, i missed him so much and just hugging him is the best thing that happened to me.
Sadly he is leaving for another year very soon, to serve for our country
This makes me think of my brother, I miss him so much and can’t wait for the day he comes back. It’s heart wrenching.
They aren’t taught to express emotions. It’s okay because growing up it was the same for me. We just buried it deep inside. So when I got older I had to learn how to express my feelings and emotions. Watching them feeling the emotions of others really brought me back to those old feelings. I know in my heart they will be amazing fathers ! My heart weeps for the experiences both of you didn’t receive. I wish you all the best. Truly from the depths of my heart, I wish the best for y’all.
You Guys are the best ,was so touched that you gave a honest reaction reaction to this Video ,you Guys didn't try to hold back.
I had the great opportunity to work with ROK soldiers in Iraq when I was there from 06 to 08. Some of the most respected and amazing soldiers there. My S3 Major was from Seoul and his family was evacuated from Hungnam during the Korean War.
These are good young lads. Things were a bit tougher in the mid 60's though. I was stationed at a town North of Seoul called Uijongbu (I might have spelled it wrong) .I was a pole lineman getting some work done while up on a telephone pole and I was watching some South Koreans in a circle about 25 feet in diameter. Someone would call out and two soldiers would run out and start fighting each other in full uniform. Combat boots and all. They would fight in their Korean form of Karate for awhile and then two more would be called out. It was a sight to see. In Vietnam they were the most feared of all soldiers.Stars and Stripes magazine told of how the South Koreans had shoulders as if softballs (baseballs) were under the skin. It was said when a South Korean crawled into a hole with couple of Viet Cong that only the South Korean came out!!!
Some people say you owe everything to your ancestors. Looking at South Korea today, I can truly believe this.One more thing, I have never seen a harder working people in my life of 74 years.
These two men are so warm so beautiful you can feel their respect and empathy for the American soldiers. Beautiful beautiful xxxx
Both are cute, handsome and adorable!.
Thanks Dimple for making me cry 😭 These videos always get to me!
These guys are feeling the same emotion any normal people would- happy that the soldiers are reunited safely with their families. American, German, South Korean, English we should be happy when any soldier returns home safely. My Grandmother had a neighbor when I was a kid. She was pretty old then and my Gran said she lost her only child in the Vietnam war. He was there a week, stepped on a mine and was killed. I still remember that all these years later. Not everyone comes home alive.
Watching the Korean soldiers reactions made me even more choked up and so very proud of our military and their sacrifices.
I had this experience my dad went to the army and I CRYED soooo much when he left and I came home after 4 years of not seeing him he finally came and for Christmas he was one of the present I couldn't of asked for a better Christmas
I like the one where the son immediately recognized his mom. You could hear and feel the urgency to hug her. But the boxing one will always hold a special place in my heart. Kid didn't even get the other glove off.
Never discount your service whether it was in peace time or war. Glad you both made it home safe and sound.
I love the two little boys in blue t-shirts, from 4:52 onwards. I can feel the emotion from them.
I legit cried through the whole video, you can't get more wholesome than this ;w;
I've seen those before and still get emotional. I'm from the US and have and have had family in the military. That's why I tear up. I know just how much they've seen and experienced. I'm proud of all who served in both of our countries.
this really hits home for me because my father was deployed to Iraq when i was 6. Its fuzzy with how long he was gone, but even at that age, I new there was a possibility he wouldnt of come back.
I love military homecomings. Because it shows that there's always a happy ending. We count our blessings because we could send someone overseas not knowing if this will be the last time we see them.
I served and while I never had a family my mother cried so hard when I returned. I didn't think i was that big of a deal but she was weepy. So I now understand.
these reunions use to be on the nightly news at least once a week, and they always made me emotional.
Koreans are amazing and wonderful. I feel we are at one as nations!
These young men are so sweet. They will make good daddies one day.
I spent two great years at Osan AB years ago. My father was active duty Air Force at the time and we met some absolutely fantastic friends that we have kept in touch with for almost 30 years after. An absolutely gorgeous country and phenomenal people and I don't have to tell you how good the food is. I've been missing just walking down the street to get some Yaki for eons lol.
Genuine emotion from these two young men. So wonderful to see.
My dad is in the military and he was deployed on my 11th birthday and wasn’t back till a couple months so when you Mom or Dad comes back you just feel so relieved and so happy too see them.
It always makes me feel good when people are not afraid to express themselves. Genuine emotion is so touching.
it's emotional, it makes tear up trained men that are teached and disciplined to be cold.
Loved your reaction an how emotional you became. I’ve had family in the military an for anyone in service many have babies born while they are away, it is very emotional for them but even more so for the children who are old enough to miss their daddies or Mommies. For the families there is also our feelings of patriotism an the proud feelings we have for our family members who serve
I appreciate the fact they they appreciate our people who serve...God Bless all of them 🙏🙏🇺🇲🇺🇲
This is so wholesome. WOW! I am still shocked that one or both of them served military because they look super young. 👀😳
While 2 of my brothers served in a foreign military, another served in the Vietnam war in the US Marine Corp. I remember as a child hearing that he had been shot and they were not certain he would live, and if he did, he would never walk again. Once I entered the USA legally, I signed up for the military and served. The most proud moment of my time in the miltary was when I heard that my brother defied all of the medical fields disclosures and was walking. He went on to not only walk again, but to train in Martial Arts. He has become a well known artist, sculpture artist and a clothes designer. He is also a top notch swordsman. I am so pleased that your podcast includes this type of presentation ... keep up the great work.
Thank both of you young men so much for your compassion and tears for others
These never get old. My father coming home from overseas was so emotional
Some of the best deployment return videos are of pets reactions especially dogs. I cry every time. And oddly enough my dad was deployed the majority of my childhood but I never had a "return from deployment" moment thanks to custody.
I hope these two are doing well in there own lives now. I can't even imagine or fathom the personal hell they went through in the military. God bless you both.
You have to remember American soldiers and seamen are often deployed overseas for over a year or even years at a time. So when they come home it is an emotional moment for the families.
Every time, when I watch coming home compilations, my eyes are welling... Salute to all service men and women!
I am 58 yo and I still remember my dad surprising me when he came home from Vietnam the second time.. I was 4 or 5 .. It was AWESOME!
The ones that really get me are the ones when the soldiers meet his child for the first time. Does ones always make me cry.
These kind of videos can be very emotional, even to watch, I remember when I came home, just from NJ (might be considered a foreign country, lol, inside joke grenade). The particular ones that get me the most are the ones which are the pets (dogs) and the uncontrollable unconditional love for their returning trooper.
It’s even better when it’s a K-9 soldier reunited with their handler. Who can better understand a battle dog’s PTSD than their veteran?
They have me crying as a grown woman who has two adult kids and a teen. I feel bad for A LOT of Asian young adults. I hear A LOT that they just want a hug or something from their parents or how they didn't have anything coming home. I see them a lot reacting to Americans and the difference between these two countries. Dang it Dimple you got a grown woman over here crying wishing she could tell all young adults in South Korea how great they are. How great their all doing in their lives. Thanks🥺. I love these two gentlemen so mature, soft spoken, and sweet. Need to borrow them to teach my teen a few manners. LOL
I TOTALLY AGREE with everything you said!
I love how you said the parents know how to value their children.
I cried right along with you. Much love from Canada. 😊
I'm glad you guys see us Americans, I been watching alot of your Chanel content I appreciate what you guys are doing.
It's an important thing for people to see. Love is so universal. Thank you! I love your videos!
almost cried watching this, so emotional.
thank u military for all you do.🖤💯
when my cousin came home from deployment, he crawled in through his rooms window (2nd story) with the help of his sister late at night and went to bed and in the morning came downstairs and asked my aunt what was for breakfast. She cried at first then got pissed because she told specifically that if he came home she didn't want a surprise because she hates crying. lol That is still one of my all time favorite snapchat stories from my cousin. Him trying to fit through a tiny window while his sister videoed it while laughing will never get old. his flight back home was also delayed and he was stuck in Tokyo for 2 days. What a wild week that was.
🥺 my brother got deployed yesterday
Oh my gosh, I teared!! I had brothers that went to the military too.. Definitely can be emotional.. i also have friends who went and friends partners when I was wit them for that experience.. it always makes me tear
A lot of the time, when an American soldier leaves on deployment it is to places like Iraq or Afghanistan where fighting was prevalent. Their deployments could range in timeframes from four months to thirteen months at a time. Each family member knows the heaviness of fear for their loved ones and lives with uncertainty until their soldier is safely home again. I grew up in a military family. My grandfather served in WWII and Korea, my Dad served in Vietnam, and my brother served in Iraq, Kuwait, and Afghanistan many times until our soldiers were pulled out last august. I was only relieved seeing my brother when he got home. His job wasn't dangerous though his duty stations were. Homecomings are very emotional for families.
Omg.... made me cry with all the video clips. I hope these lovely guys get the same welcome home greeting from their loved ones. ❤❤🎉🎉 to serve your country is the greatest honour 🎖 🥇 👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾💯🇬🇧🇬🇧
Hey guys it doesn’t matter who you are when your in the service we love them all . I cry all the time and that is universal love.
The videos always make me very emotional, as well, as I’ve been the child welcoming her dad home many times. My dad spent 21 years in the US Military (he joined when I was two years old), 1983-2004. There were countless times I was not sure whether he’d come home or not. Fortunately, my dad is still alive and well. I pray for all the soldiers and their families.
I still remember all the times my dad came home from deployment. Such beautiful moments.
Thank you all for your service to your country 💯
Such sweet men!
Thank you for sharing this video. Many blessings to you all. 🙏💕
It takes a second to recognize someone that you never expected to see, even when you're a grown up!
You are right. Those people will remember that moment forever. I remember the day my then-fiancé returned from deployment like it was yesterday. We've been married almost 38 years.
I'm trying to read the captions through my tears! These videos always get me.
Thank you for this reaction. It means a lot to me.
One of the reasons why I really love watching videos on this channel is, because they show different perspectives, are educational and feature really strong confident women and wonderfully wholesome vulnerability of men. And we need more of both (on top, not in replacement of, what we already have as societal stands)
It takes a lot of confidence in yourself to not fear sharing tearful moments in front of others. This is especially true knowing you could be viewed by thousands of people from across the globe.
I loved...
* These men's honest respect for the soldiers who were not of their own nationality. Many other countries can be indifferent to such examples. They were far from indifferent. They showed kindness and honest reflection about the experiences they were seeing.
* Their imagining themselves being in those situations and how they'd react.
* The fact they were able to differentiate from their own service experience vs, the situation for the American returnees. I know for a fact that in North America, if it were the other way around - the story could be much different. ( sadly )
** Our world needs to be filled with more people who understand and respect the value of a person risking their life to try and protect the rights of others before their personal safety. These two men genuinely got it. Their humble honest reflections were touching and an example others should hear.
💗💗💗 One thought I'd leave them with and hope they have opportunity to read. 💗💗💗
🌟Regardless of the fact that they may not have seen battle during their time in service, they were ready and able each day of their enlistment to do what their country needed of them, and that should never be minimalized.🌟
This video had me balling. I respect our military so much especially since I come from a family where most of us were in the military. 💜respect to the all of the brave souls alive and in heaven. 🙏🏻🙏🏻
I loved these videos as I do all the homecoming videos! I did enjoy the reactions of the two very young South Korean soldiers! I was sad that they don't receive the emotional responses that are shown in the video! They were very adorable!
❤️ These 2 are so sweet.
Sweet seeing their reactions
Two incredible people
I just want to say there is nothing wrong with showing emotion. Life is to short, everybody needs a hug sometimes.
Very touching thanks for sharing!
Thank you for the video that was really cool all those coming home videos really get me emotional also
Nothing replaces what a father brings to his family, and nothing makes a man richer or successful than loving and providing for them, if he’s appreciated.
I am heading to Korea to understand why men are so amazing and yet they don't have all the happiness we see!
When people understand sacrifice, they understand humility.
You two are so adorable 🥰 Love your reaction
This hits so hard having kids of my own. Just reminds you how much you mean to them 🥹
