I appreciate it.
I like how there's a barrier between the train and the platform. Not sure why American cities don't do this.
Because the US is very poor in public infrastructure building. The subways and public transportation in the US is like a third world country.
Michelle Go died in the New York city subway, from being pushed into the incoming train by a Black homeless druggie. A barrier might have saved her life. #RipMichelleGo
Because they are ghetto and they don't care for public safety.
cost
NEVER buy your SIM from the airport. THAT'S why it cost so much.
"Just left the cell block" 😂 that's how I felt in S. Korea too. The rooms definitely give a cell vibe
One suggestion about the SIM cards at the airport-- try to book your SIM card with KT a few days prior to arrival. I didn't get mine on the first night because I didn't know what plan I would need yet and the prices in person were definitely more expensive. It's best to go online and book it/pay for it and then going to pick it up at the airport or other locations.
Two apps that you will need while in Korea, Papago for translation and KakaoMaps or Naver Maps for directions or even food recommendations.
That airbnb that shower though damn
😆👏🏿
Incheon, one of my favorite airports on my way to the Philippines. You can always grab some Burger King after weeks on the return trip home! Amazing how you move from the snow to warm weather in 3 hours! Korean Air has comfortable first and business class. 😎
Lol! First time watching your videos but you’ll enjoy Korea a lot. I loved it when I lived there. If you use NAVER maps and type in things like chicken you should be able to locate places even if it’s in Korean.
Also, dude, make sure to try dakgalbi and Jjimdak if you can handle spicy foods. They are my favorite Korean chicken dishes.
I was laughing “ back to the cellblock”🤣
Welcome to the ROK😊. Been there numerous times over the past 40 yrs. Last time from 2015-2021. A great safe place to stay and visit. But it is expensive and not a bargain like other SE Asian countries, unless you backpack and live in hostels. Enjoy and as a solo traveler you might get lucky with the local ladies. At least you will be safe.
I liked the fact that your video camera isn’t shaky. It’s clear and it doesn’t hurt following your every moves. I had the exact experienced when I landed in Incheon airport (foreign friendly). Please post more videos.
CELL BLOCK D….. 😂😂 Bruuh that accommodation a culture shock. I thought Tokyo was bad but daaaaaamn SK and for $370 for 2 weeks. WOW
Wait till u go to hong kong
Yeah Seoul is the capital, so accommodation is expensive. Busan and other cities are a bit cheaper.
Perfect description of lodging accommodations cell block D. I would need better accommodation than that! More Power to you man. I wish could I can be thrifty like that when comes to lodging accommodations.
That small room is called a goshiwon, and you got a good deal. Staying for 3 weeks in Korea in hotel would be extremely expensive.
@Inquisitve m That is not expensive for a 2 week vacation! Korea is not Cambodia. You're very ignorant. Even in the outskirts of Seoul you can't hotels that cheap.
$740 a month for that? gah damn
The tiniest room I have ever seen.
Thank you, sir.
I enjoy your travel vlogs. Thanks for the grand tour of your Cell Block. Wow! 😮 Now, I will be staying with my relatives should I visit South Korea- I presently reside in the US.
BTW, you charmingly butchered Korean thank you. I'm sure you now know that it's gam-sa-ham-ni-da. I hope you had a great time in South Korea!
Thank you for this - I am going in two weeks and this makes it easier !!!!
Damn bruh lol that room was smaller than a jail cell, like there’s no way my tall ass would even fit
😆😂
Lol
Daaaaaammmmnnnn !!!!! 30 days Sim Card is $15 dollars in Thailand 😂 That room is smaller than County Jail Cell room 😂
I'm going there next year. I was there in 2009 in the Navy
11:18 broo you kill me 😂😂😂.
Oh baby what are you doing here?
@@loey-31 wtf your doing here
@@plotx957 욕하지마
I live in South Korea. Welcome, brother.
Sly went to the store and bought 80% deserts lol, I be doing the same. Great video brother!
loving your videos!
I lived 12 yrs of my life there but I def remember the first few days, culture shock extraordinaire.
I did business travel to South Korea for SK Hynix and Samsung. I have an afro so they never asked if i was military even though I'm Army Vet. Love the public trasportation. You looking for Dak Bulgogi(Chicken) You can say dalgbulgogi iss-eoyo?
I had a layover in the Gimpo airport back in 95 and it was kinda empty back then too.
Another great video Brother
I lived in Seoul for 3 years, 2009 - 2013. I lived off the orange line, Illsan. Gorgeous! The blue line is connected the US military bases. The last stop on the blue line is Camp Casey, 1 hour from the North Korean border. They have an organized, fast clean system. I scratch my head when I'm back in the US. The US needs an update on the infrastructure. Their Korean BBQ's are top notch! Let me know if you have any questions, have fun exploring!!
You should consider using the google translate app cam mode
You didn't listen to your advice of not buying sims at the airport! 😂
I find it funny how she directed u to the hamburgers lol
The guy who asked if you are Army was most likely a taxi scammer. At places like the airport they know foreigners expect taxis to cost a lot but they are actually really cheap in Korea. The scammers approach you and ask if you need a ride and they love to target military members because they know they won't start an argument over the price
Nice Video
Looking forward to this, show us the night life too if possible
I like this
It is funny, Koreans automatically assume an African American doing in South Korea, he must be serving in the US military base there. By the way, are you working or just touring in Asian countries? You are lucky because most Americans do travel outside of the US. That is the reason, they feel lost when they are outside of countries, especially when they are in countries that English is not the spoken language. I hope you will use the opportunity of traveling in Asian countries to enrich your knowledge and experience about the world and Asian cultures and history in particular.
That room was a cell for real!!! But the price was right my brother.
You gotta go to the City of Chinhae for the Cherry Blossom Festival.✌🏾
Great video man. I'll be headed to Seoul in 2 days so this was super useful. How long will you be there?
I like your clean shaven look
i wanna travel like you bro
Yoo whats up with that room my dawg!!!💀💀💀💀💀
Say "thank you" again 😂
I thought he was having a stroke.
I'm used to see the airport in Seoul South Korea that empty. Coming from the Eastern part of the U.S. as I would be; it leaves me needing to time my connecting flights so I arrive in the A.M. to the Philippines. If not I don't arrive until Midnight or so; at which point you'll find yourself more than likely (debating) with you local taxi driver; as he'll assume it's you first visit, you're tired from the flight, and willing to pay "SPECIAL RATES" just to get from the airport to a hotel to rest your head.
Bruh, feedback in case you wanna take it. Your subscriber will appreciate IF you got yourself a micro and another one for whatever company or interviewer you could have. Thanks
it's not going to look any different because everybody looks the same so everything would probably be the same is not mixed up where people bring their different Technologies from other countries
What Camera do you shoot with Sly?
I'm also in Korea ATM! It's an awesome place and the people are the friendliest I've ever met.
12:29 You could have gotten chicken rice porridge there. But oh, well. Next time you're in Korea ask where a samgyetang (삼계탕) restaurant is.
If you love pasta please go to rolling pasta!!
Me taking notes for my trip in September......
Lmao @ The Quick Tour of The Room.
Wow. South Korea!
Yo don't drop the soap in D Block mane 😂😂😂
lived there for 3 years.You're about to hit monsoon season...you might be leaving when it starts..
Wow...$6 for unlimited data, here in Thailand, for a month. I'm sure you know. Korea seems more expensive than the USA!
As soon as you swiped at the train I said “wrong side” and you ended up paying for her ride
How did you miss the Songkran Water War Festival on 13-15 April of every year?😂😂😂Welcome to Thailand alway❤❤❤
I lived in Korea for 2.5 years. Best food scene ever, but some of the nastiest unkind people I ever met. Much prefer China and Japan. You wouldn't know unless you spend significant time and get to know the culture and people on a deeper level.
Some people are just nasty and it doesn't mean everybody is. I quite understand your point of views though. Human being is actually a terrible animal to be sincere.
Agree. It's completely backwards there. They have a double standard - expect to be treated like kings/queens when they go abroad but are actually deeply suspicious of foreigners
Truth 💯
Can’t buy anything in the airport man it’s the most expensive place no matter what kiosk. It’s like checking different kiosk in the movie theater to see who has the cheapest snacks (people in US will understand) 😂
Nvm you answer my question in the video 🤣🤣
Well, S. Korea ain't Colombia. It's actually a 1st world country lol
Yes, it is first world for being US ally. You mean to say industrialized or developed country.
In the 60s Colombia was ahead of South Korea. I don't see what South Korea can do other countries can not. It is just that USA is playing games with so many countries based on interest else North Korea aren't as developed as South Korea. Go and figure out the so called world order.
@@youme1414 You're 100% wrong and I encourage you to learn more about S. korea. Samsung, LG, Hyundai, KIA, are all korean mega companies. S. Korea one of the top economies in the world and it has really advanced tech (computer chips,etc) as well as infrastructures. All of these have nothing to do being a US ally. Lol. They'll become a stronger partner with China soon.
@@youme1414 they've thrived after adopting capitalism while N. Korea suffered adopting communism.
@@nepatriots77 Yes, list them for us. It is clear the reason USA is still protecting it from North Korea. Perhaps, you can tell me something I don't know.
@@youme1414 You say "us" like there is another person besides you who's making a stupid stance. South Korea does not need any protection bc North Korea is not dumb enough to attack. You're living under a rock and clearly overcame by western media propaganda. America is NOT protecting any country lol. The military overseas (S. Korea, Japan, Germany, etc) are there because it's to serve its own interest. Keep living blind buddy.
What camera do you use to film?
How do you afford your flight tickets and what tips tricks do you have to afford flight?
your funny cell block,when your traveling you only need a clean place to rest,somtimes cell block is home.
Wow it was only $30 from KT only 2.5 years ago.
You sure that's not a New York studio apartment?
how do you afford all these trips big bro?
Why is Korea won low to the dollar
Cell Block D 🤣🤣🤣
How many years did you do in the Penn??🤣🤣🤣
Do you speak they language
You were military that's pretty obvious
sly butchered thank you in korean lol "kam sam ne da"
😂😂😂
Luxurious prison cell for $700 month this is gonna be interesting to navigate. Glad you found a decent meal.
Could you actually fit in the bathroom for a shower?
can you SNEEZE in that room? OMG - that room is for little people- and that shower in the bathroom.OMFG..NOPE, sorry but I need my shower separate from where I do #2 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 Also use Google Translate in Korea
Try not to buy anything in the airport.
I've seen European jail cells that look better than that Airbnb. I take it you s, shave than shower.
🤣🤣
Use Google translate through your camera man! You will fear no menu
Talk about the women more lol
Its gonna be a rough one. People have an attitude. Move on.
Hello, 🐦🦋🐞May I share an Old Testament Verse with you from Daniel 7:14 "And there was given him dominion, and glory, and a Kingdom, that all people, nations, and languages, should SERVE Him; his dominion is an Everlasting dominion, which shall not pass away, and his kingdom shall not pass away, and His Kingdom that which shall not be destroyed." Also, can I share Isaiah 53:5 " But HE was WOUNDED For our TRANSGRESSIONS, he was BRUISED for our iniquities; the chastisement of our peace was upon Him, and with His STRIPES we are HEALED."
God the Father loves you so much that He sent Holy Sinless Jesus (His Holy Son) to earth to be born of a virgin.Then, to grow up and die on a cross for our sins. He was in the tomb for 3 days, then Father God raised Holy and Sinless Jesus Christ (Y'shua) to Life! He appeared to people and went back to Heaven. We must receive Sinless Jesus sincerely to be God's child(John 1:12).After we get saved by grace through faith in Christ, if we truly love the Lord Jesus Christ, then we will obey Jesus(John 14:15). Mark 1:15 "And saying, the time is fulfilled, and the kingdom of God is at hand: Repent ye, and believe the gospel." Jesus said in John 14:15 "If you love Me, keep My commandments. "There's a real hell. It says in Revelation 21:8 "But for the cowardly, & unbelieving, and abominable, and murderers, & immoral persons sorcerers & idolaters & all liars, their part will be in the lake that burns with fire & brimstone..." Please sincerely receive Holy Jesus and put your true faith and trust in Him today and please repent. Will you have a Real encounter with Holy Lord Jesus (Y'shua is His Hebrew Name) and stay in a Genuine relationship with Him daily please?
Are masks mandatory?
I lived in Korea for 15 months - hated it. You should have stayed in Thailand!
Do you mind sharing why you hated it. I'm just curious.
Why did you hate it? You should at least explain.
Man, Sly....you eat alot of carbs
how much was that prison cell ? ahah
