watching this makes me feel okay being vulnerable. like my heart is being fed. thank you david
We realize as we grow up that our parents are just as f-ed up as we are in their own ways, some more than others. Expectations vs reality. I appreciate this.
probably best father's day gift a father can ask for.
David, he's a broken child, just like we all are. Forgive each other for being human and hurt inside. ❤
This made me cry, such a beautiful video. Thank you David Choe.
Made me tear up man. Beautiful video. Congratulations for the editing.
🙏
I opened an art gallery in Pennsylvania and my dad acted like he didn't know three years later, and it is still open btw... Like he couldn't have given less of a sh*t. I was like "Yeah, the gallery I told you about all those times. You don't remember? We were in the paper and magazines." and he just goes "Oh. No, I didn't know." and that was it.
I didn't have a redemptive moment. So I live with that.
Dude your dad loves you. It's simply hard for some people to express them selfs out loud. His pride of your Ability to be so candid creative and unafraid makes the scared and shy part of him jealous. But believe a father with a Similar family history, he is Proud.
Similar with my dad, my dad loves me but what I’ve observed is that is hard for them to articulate what they feel and how they feel. My dad would always put on a smile, showing that he’s alright and fine. But I know he’s not, he’s hiding behind a mask a facade so that his true feelings sometimes wouldn’t show.
weather this is because of his upbringing or just straight up ego of not showing him being weak, idk. What I know is, I’m a more expressive person. But I’m afraid as I get older I have to pretend to be “fine” infront of the people that I love, just so they won’t be worried. Peace ✌️
Thank you for sharing this sweet story. My kids are pissy with me too...and I made the mistake of not being open and sharing what I was dealing with. I over estimated their understanding.
Goshhh this made me cry like crazyy.. i miss my pa 😢
As someone who never had parents since being 1 year old.. it’s hard to relate on either side of your experience. Although from perceiving others complicated relationships with their parents.. it’s an important question of is better late than never relevant when it comes to the hurt, pain and struggles one faces with someone’s approval that likely ,alters the most.. if I could dare a guess I would say it’s better to see others grow in these important ways later rather than never. Hopefully your connections will deepen more and more. It’s hard for many people to see the conditioning we ve had ground into us through values and ideals not worth our own flesh to carry. Shedding all the crap is hopefully a beautiful thing to see and feel. ❤ thanks for sharing your heart and experience.
@David Choe Seems you're fullfilling one of your lifes purpose to help your father to feel the things he was fearful himself of feeling, he maybe had some trauma from his past that kept him in his "box". So wonderful to see him express his love for you while he's still on this earth
Our parents know how to push our buttons because they installed them. Glad you had this beautiful experience with your dad. ☮❤
Fuggin got me in tears. So beautiful! But my dad is dying, in his bed, under hospice care etc.... i will never hear those words from his lips. Never.
Thank you for sharing this relationship with your father. Your storytelling style is easy to digest like your water colors. It is free and loose and lucid, but you take these appearance of random marks and create a structure that can be seen and understood.
You’re such a good story teller. Always gripped
Always appreciated
A week before my tough old man died he said
“I told you I’m proud of you right..?”
“Gee dad let me think,………
Nope I’d remember that.”
he said
“of course I’m proud of you”
I was 41 , “shit dad we should have had this conversation years ago. “
Pretty heavy hearing that , Glad I had a few years with him on almost level ground. I miss him. Cheers man
I miss my father.
i was not expecting to cry but here i am
to show all the sides -- in such an artful way -- it's so beautiful - you are really touching us in so many ways with your creative spirit -- thanks for being so real -- i feel inspired -- i love how you say in that moment he saw you, the way the little david pops up -- (in the editing) -- very moving 😭
My brain delivered to me the interview with the father of Jim Morrison, he couldn't grasp what the deal was with his music. I'm very happy for you that your Dad has connected to you in this way. Love to you!
there's always the one in the family who is our opposite, the yin to our yang or vice versa... when you're white, they're black, when you're up, they are down etc. Never see eye to eye for whatever reason. The best thing you can do is accept it and release attachment to their validation... Lot's of crying and seeing and realising - give yourself what you secretly wished they would always give you.
Imagine that moment of validation when he finally recognises you, visualise those moments you wished would happen with him in whatever way you need to and release that... And whatever happens, happens.
hope this helped somewhat brother Choe
Don’t stop making these!! Please I’m going through it as an artist and in life rn and you’re fr helping 🙌 thank you
What a beautiful video ❤️
🙏
Crying by the end of it. So beautifully expressed. Thanks
POWERFUL film . Thank you for sharing ! I remember vividly the day my science teacher jumped off his bike and ran across the road and gave me a huge hug, ‘I’m sorry , I get it now , I gave you so much shit but I see you now .’ He had just come from seeing my work at our final high school art show . 😊 my dad and I have had similar yo what you describe here .. very complex feelings , I honour you for being so open and vulnerable about it 🙏🏽
GodDAMNIT this is so touching AHHHHHHHHHH
🙏
thank you for giving me this experience i feel like i was there i thought id never feel that
I have a great dad. Kind man. Taught me how to lift weights. Never once came to one of my competitions or really commented on it. I’m a 10x bodybuilding champion. Lol our fathers are people too, they’re complicated. Oddly enough now that I’m a professional artist, he’s into it.
Thank you ❤️ your story has helped me with my own life in so many ways
David you legit changed my life with these videos. It’s hilarious how I get to help people in my life go through their bs. Thanks David. You’ve made it.
This is beautiful David, congrats on your father acknowledging your value, creativity and achievements as an artist and human. I got quite emotional there for a sec.. Thanks for sharing, might even send this to my Dad.
David, your realness heals me ❤
Man, im crying like a child, my 5 y o myself cause im a painter too and my dad when sees my work judge it like if he is Rembrandt you know? he grew up without a mother, without someone who shows him love, so he never learned that, i love my dad and i know subconsciously with every piece i make i try to gain his acceptance, my inner child makes something to stare at him looking for a smile or some kind of aproval, i love what you dad said about you, the fact that he is proud of you means so so much, my mother never learned how to express love neither, the day she died i didnt cryed, i loved her so much but i grew up learning to supress my feelings too, at her funeral a friend of her told me: your mom told me she was very proud of you, man, i started to cry like a kid, that was her last and greatest gift to me
I’m often inspired by David Choe… but this was the Art lesson I didn’t know I needed.
I’m just letting everyone know for no reason whatsoever that I did not have to hide tears at work after watching this video in my cubicle.
This was as beautiful as you. keep going
That’s amazing you experienced that with your father
Thanks for this David. I just lost my father 2 months ago and struggled with him over the years. There are times he let his guard down for me. Those great moments are equalizing. I don’t know how you do it, but you’re a wellspring of creative energy.
Can't wait! Thank you for everything you do man. Nobody can replace Bob and you are your own unique being so I hope this is okay to say- but you are absolutely becoming the new Bob Ross. At least in my eyes. It's helped alot. I still intend to include your video on fear holding you back in one of my upcoming podcasts, I'm just waiting for the original poster to post so I can tweak it. You're an amazing artist and an amazing soul
Omg David thank you
i love you david choe
This was so beautiful. I love your videos. I don’t know if my family is proud that I’m pursuing art at Columbia, but I know I am and I hope you are too. I have a lot of struggles and you inspire me to continue making art even when I want to give up. Thank you David ❤
Beautiful man. Deep down in us all is a light that can't be kept dim. You showed your father that light and that's an amazing thing. I think that's all most of us want as artists... you got something I'll never get. But that's not something that makes me sad- it makes me feel joy! Treasure that forever, man
So so sweet. Made us teary here. ❤ Amazing what you have done.
I love how vulnerable and transparent you are with this topic. I feel this way a lot when trying to express myself and feel these exact feelings from my family when my 28 year old self post a new song from my band that has never gotten anywhere or made any money like a lot of my peers jobs do. I am having my first boy in about 3 weeks and I promise to give him the support I wish I had growing up in whatever he does. I’m just glad he exists.
Thank you for sharing this, David. It’s really nice to imagine
Man this really touches me. I have a difficult realationship to my father as well, beeing an artist and he not really beeing able to show his feelings. I have so much anger and sadness against him. I don't even want those emotions.
When my father passed away, that was when I started having beautiful memories in my life. I wish he had witnessed all of them.
If your father is still alive, try to reach out to him. ❤
🙏🧽⭕️
💙✨❤️
❤ the eternal enigma of family 😢 we are nordic migrants to the US and my folks are in their 80's. Very relatable. Thank you
Daayummit Choooe.. you got me 😭😭😭😭😭👶
i knew it was a bad idea to chop onions while watching this.
David, that was absolutely beautiful
This was beautiful
🙏
Often when you're angry at others for not understanding you, it has more to do with you not understanding others.
I love your voice 🛼
Wow that was incredible.
this really helped me sir. thanks so much.
Perfect week for this video. Love it❣️
Ya I cried
my dad is just the same
Your awesome david! I love you. Keep going! Don't give up!
Oh wow this video so got me. Much love to your dad and to you for sharing it. This is timely given it’s Father’s Day weekend here in the US. My dad is a mixed Asian man. I struggle to understand him yet I feel like to some degree you captivated how my dad is with talking about how your dad is. At the end of the day all of us just want our fathers to be proud of us, and to love us. I think I’m gonna show this to my dad over the weekend. Thank you.
Love you too daddy choe
Ngl...Made me tear up.
Beautiful man. 🙏🏾
I JUST GOT FINISHED CRYING MAN IM CRYING AGAIN ( GOTTA THROW THAT IN SOME ART EH HOW OFTEN DO YOU GET SUCH RAW EMOTION LIKE THIS AND HAVE ACCESS TO GREAT ART MATERIALS AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA LOLLL) *prob healthier to put it in art than what i been doing frfr
such awesome video, happy fathers day dave
Beautiful.
I should talk to my father. I barely do.
You are an amazing person
David Choe you are an amazing artist. You make me fully understand life through your artistry. Thank you for being the inspiration you are.
This was beautiful, man.
Same parents never understood me and here I am loosing my shit everytime
powerful
Oh, how I can relate 🤧
Redemption
This is beautiful man. I don't think I have much more than that to say, but... yeah. My dad probably doesn't probably understand the whole complexity of my art, but he supports it nonetheless, even if some of it is... probably weird to him, and this is because I have kinda reconnected with him as an adult art student after some turbulent years went by. Great stuff as always David, I love the vulnerability here.
❤❤❤
I go through this with my mother all the time.
I am 54
Edit: I've given up waiting for her to say I have done well.
It doesn't matter what she thinks anymore.
형 I Still haven't hear "im proud of you" from my father , I wish that day will come soon or maybe never
🫰🏻
Awe ❤
I Love my family
I love my family
Truly Incredible
💓
This video was great. Me and mine seem to be polar opposites, we just don’t seem to see each other right. Maybe one day
🧡
🙏
He saw you and he was the child again too
🙏
😭
no, im not tearing up. I'm NOT- fuck.
You and Rick Rubin should chill and film it
My Dad died when I was nine let the anger go.
Lucky your father is still around… now imagine asking for acceptance- but he’s gone… you’re alone…still wanting..needing that soft voice.but it will never be there again.
My dad never understood m me and was negative to me all my life x
😢😢😢😢😢
🌈🌈 all the way ♥️
Guy, your dad has his own demons he has to work through: different childhood traumas, disappointments, shortcomings, etc.. At some point we all have to grow up and stop blaming our parents for our issues and get on with it.
🙂
Dammit... the whole emotional climax got ruined when I misunderstood what he said at the very very end. I thought he said "You're a great Christian" - I was like... "wait wut"?!?!?
He should respect the work yes but to be honest, he isn't going to understand what he is creating. Two very different generations. How do you expect him to connect through something he has no interest in. Im not going to lie. It would be totally weird for me to hear my son say those things onstage. I don't consider that art, but like I said, different generations. Its always going to be like that. Father son relationships are sometimes very difficult. I can definitely understand that.
