    Thanks for being honest. Most foreigners who live and vlog in Korea, don’t mention some of these things,

      Thank you for your comment 🩷 I think it can be tough for some to speak up as there are also very strict laws about “defamation” (which are mainly taken advantage of by businesses if you leave them a bad review) so I think a lot of people tread lightly around certain subjects, especially if they want to stay

    I had forgotten that you were based in South Korea recently, I've just booked flights to go visit there! You have me convinced to check out a Daiso 😊 Hope your move goes smoothly and that you and your little family feel safer and more recognised wherever the world takes you next ❤

    For what it's worth (regarding another comment), your audio quality has never bothered me! Although it never hurts to upgrade your equipment when possible, but I haven't noticed/cared about a microphone in previous videos.

    • @HermioneChantal
      @HermioneChantal  7 часов назад +4

      Thank you for letting me know! I lost my mic recently so the quality is different but I’m glad to hear that it doesn’t effect everyone 🩷 I’ll get a new one asap :)

    Your hair looks SOOOO good, Hermione. Like seriously. I usually dislike this hair length because it's so hard to pull off or it just kinda looks like an awkward stage of growing out a bob but it genuinely looks like it's made for you. Excited for your new chapter!

    Basically all the reasons you need to not live in Korea. I always felt that Korea, like Japan is a fantastic place to visit but not to live in.

    Sorting out your entire life and packing it up to send it to a distant country sounds exhausting.I would love to visit South Korea.Only for a vacation, your points sound horrible and terrifying. I learned to love the country especially through the wonderful videos from Josh and Olli from Korean Englishman. But I think this goal is still a long way away for me. May I ask which country Hayley comes from? I don't know if this question has already been answered somewhere.

    • @HermioneChantal
      @HermioneChantal  7 часов назад +5

      Packing has surprisingly been so easy this time around, we did hire shippers which helps :)
      I totally recommend if you can come one day to check it out there’s so much here to enjoy! And I used to watch their videos before moving here too 😀
      Hayley is both Canadian and British but she grew up in Canada 😀

    It's really helpful to know these things about the country, i think as an American i have little thoughts about what I'm used to as human rights and rights to privacy so it's refreshing to be reminded that it's a privilege to have. ❤❤ Best wishes on your move #

    I remember what you talk about the 150 people 😢. And there are rumors of the “neighbors up north” looking for trouble. And what you comment about no respecting personal data sounds like china’s surveillance state

    I am from Spain but I lived in UK for 13 years. Moving back to Spain was a lot of mixed feelings, and to decide what to take back. You build a life and a home and memories and is tricky. All the best for you 2 ❤❤❤

    • @HermioneChantal
      @HermioneChantal  7 часов назад +4

      Wow 13 years is such a long time I can imagine that it wasn’t an easy move. I hope it went smoothly for you 🩷 it’s so tough deciding what to take and what to leave but I’m sure it will be worth it for us when it’s done :)

    Heh then in the end Singapore would have been a better choice. Yes we're expensive and the heat & humidity sucks, but we are anal about safety, you cannot even get your own medical information over the phone it must all be in person, and lastly we are a meritocracy (you might even be favoured because of your race, a little leftover bias due to our past as a british colony 😅😅). This is all in general, there have been exceptions here and there, but generally-speaking the issues you face in Korea are not problems here.
