That would be fun! Hope I can run I to him at some events/meets if he joins those. Heard he's been low key recently but hey, never know! If you decide to visit, let me know!
Great to see you back. Two things I would be interested in. Learning more about how you got the job/got a work permit and residency. Learning about the starcraft scene and how it intersects with the keyboard scene.
Thank you for updating us, Scott! I also recently moved to Pangyo and noticed many of the same things. Leaving the phones to reserve tables, leaving bikes unlocked all day at train stations, etc. Would love to hear more updates on your life there, and on the K-Keyboard scene.
Aside from being a keyboard content creator, I think your style of videos and the way you present would be great for talking about the shift from the states to korea! Definitely interested in hearing about it from time to time! Also I think it'd be pretty cool if you could get in touch with geon and do something with him like an interview on how he designs his boards and even how he prices them since he apparently doesn't make anything off them. Or just a review on his boards in general would be cool
Wow. Came for keyboard updates and was schooled on Korea. I was really enjoying the glimpse of Korea you experienced. Was blown away when spoke of the crime or very minimal amount of it there. Where in at you can get stuff stolen by simply stopping at a red light. Very much enjoyed your detailed experiences of your new home.
Thanks Matthew! It's been a big culture shock initially but getting used to it now! I hope it'll be a great experience and open up new perspectives for me :) hey if you ever decide to visit, let me know!
Was wondering where you’d been and now you’re taking us on another kind of adventure with you! Keep us posted about life in South Korea. Always wanted to visit but at least we can live vicariously through you for a time. Thanks for everything and can’t wait for new content…it’s been parched out here in RUclips land without you.
Awesome update! Coincidentally I'll be going to korea next month for vacation. Maybe I'll bump into you by chance haha. Looking forward to your uploads from here on out!
Very nice. I've visited KR many times and also "short-term" lived there (in Seoul) a few years ago. It's one of my keeb life goals to go back and experience more 🎉 hopefully in the very near future. : )
Welcome back! I am in IT and always wondered what you do for a living. Not going to lie, I am jealous. I love culcure! S Korea, Japan, Hong Kong...I would love to visit.
As a 2nd generation Korean American that hasn't been back to South Korea in about a decade now, some short bloggos about your stay in Korea would be something I'd be interested in! Of course, keyboard content is great too. Good luck on everything!
Congrats on the move! It's fun to hear your updates and changes in your life. Thanks for sharing :D 5:19 whoever's room this is, shout out to the Touken Ranbu merch \o/
I'm always interested in public transportation of different places! Like affordability, how easy/difficult it is to get around, and maybe if things like bicycling are encouraged.
Would LOVE to hear more about your experiences in Korea! The food, places to take the the bullet train for a short vacation, what kind of homes do most people live in, what kinds of work middle class people do…. Did you grow up speaking and reading Korean, or are you picking it up as you go? My husband is an immigrant from Poland and he grew up in the US “kind of” speaking Polish and had to relearn it as an adult.
Missed your videos! I was going to post a comment and ask if you were just done with the hobby, but then I saw your post about your move to Korea. Congrats and look forward to more of your work!
I've been missing your videos and especially your humor! Yours was one of the first channels I found when I got addicted to this "hobby." I think SK would be a pretty great place to live for a while but definitely different. Glad the move went well and looking forward to more videos!
Welcome back! I'll be very excited to learn more about Korea from you since I'll be there for an overseas exchange, love to come hang at the meetup too!
You should do some content on custom arcade pads: Korea is the home land for creating them as well as the artisan keycap scene ... Most of the modern ones actually use MX switches in hot swap sockets for the buttons.
Ina and I are coming out next year to see you guys!! I would love to see content around life in Korea. Hara already vlogs with her mini videos... have her get in on it. 🙃 🥰Love you guys!!!!
Yay exciting stuff, really happy that ur in Korea. Would love to see some fun cultural stuff once in a while! Can’t wait to see what collabs u have over there!
As a fellow asian living in America, always wanted to visit some place like south korea or Japan, plus I just love your style of videoes, so I very much would enjoy more South Korean vlogs! Thanks for the update and welcome back!
Wow, super cool! I had no idea just how advanced and surveilled South Korea is. I'm excited for this next chapter in your channel and wish you the best from USA!
I spent 10 days in Seoul about 5 years ago and I was amazed by how far technologically advanced they seemed and still had the mix of old school markets on some streets. I had the same experience you mentioned with people leaving things on the table when the left, or street vendor not locking their stuff up over night. IT was wild to me. Enjoy and keep the videos coming. I hope to get back there soon.
When you mentioned visiting nearby countries, I was sad that you just missed the biggest keeb meet in the world (to date) here in the Philippines -- The Grand Lason R2. Even Geon himself was here. Looking forward to your future content. More power!
Absolutely fascinated of the polar opposites. Although I could never live in a city where everything is crammed with camera surveilance and AI screening and protocoling everything. Madness.
Very cool to see you're back, and awesome that you're in Korea! I'd be interested in anything more specific to the keyboard scene in Korea - differences, general vibe, collab with makers there, etc. You've been my favorite keyboard youtuber for a while and now I'm even more excitied for the future!
Scott, you're not just a great keyboard creator, you're genuinely interesting and entertaining as well. I would absolutely be interested what your life is like with such a huge change. Even if it's on a separate channel, definitely let us know! I also work in big tech, so I would be super curious to hear about the workings in Korea and how they differ to the US.
Loved to see this update, and happy to hear that you're well! Please share anything about your times in Korea, as it's high on my destination list for travel.
Vlog is a nice idea. Would love to get your perspective for your experience in Korea as a Korean American. I followed another RUclipsr that went through similar transition (Ben Deen) so very curious about your experience.
Korea with Scott would be awesome! Also, now you have access to not just Korea's KB scene, you also have access to Japan and China's scene, since they're all so close by. You could make trips to visit people like Z-Frontier.
It's cool to hear you brought a QK100 with you. They just had a restock and was able to get one, your video sold me on it. Looking forward to your next videos Scott!
Feels like a lot of the magic of the country is barred off to it's residents, which I guess makes sense at the end of the day. I miss being able to go to the convenience store and nabbing a light meal for like $5 lmao. Hope you enjoy your time in KR. You got Swagkeys right there (ngl their service for overseas customers is still nuts too.)
Thanks for sharing Scott. Your observations of the cultural differences set realistic expectations for many americans who have wondered what korea is really like
Definitely interested in videos exploring more about the Korean side of the hobby. I've spent a lot of time in Japan, which is similar to Korea in many ways, but they don't really have much of a mechanical keyboard scene there (at least compared to Korea). Why do you think mechanical keyboards have taken off so much in Korea?
Korean here; Japan has a pretty big emphasis on split keyboards rather than regular keebs. As for the Korean keyboard scene, we are very close to China which makes it easier to work with chinese sellers and get chinese-made products like monsgeek for lower price, which makes it easier for beginners to get into affordable boards
@@Rr_9991 I’m not sure if I would agree they have an emphasis on split keyboards. I’ve literally never seen a split keyboard in a store in Japan, or ever seen anyone use one for that matter.
This was super interesting. I enjoyed you talking about all of this stuff. I thought this would be a normal "I took a break, but I'm back" type video, but I became even more invested as I continued to watch. Would love to see more content like this on the channel!
I have never known korea is quite far convinient than other countries cuz I am korean. it's just normal life for me. but I finally realized kr is extremely convinient when I had lived US for serveral months. small territory sometimes comes as advantages😂. I hope see you on Jan.
This move sounds like a really good choice for you, and the culture change also seems really appealing me (also a US citizen). Although, I don't think I could learn a new language to go through with something like this. Props and good luck!
Honestly, I would totally be down to see you do a vlog of your time in Korea because I've considered visiting Korea at some point and potentially even live there for a little bit. Also I just like hearing you talk you have a very nice voice. 😁
Hey yeah, I WAS starting to notice you hadn't uploaded recently, good to see you're doing alright. What a great opportunity, enjoy your time in S. Korea! I'd love to see some updates on your time there and the different experiences you have, that's a part of the world I'd love to see at some point. Looking forward to your next keyboard uploads as well!
Thank you, Scott, for the update! I'm really happy to hear that the move went well. Your videos actually got me interested in this hobby, so I'm excited to see how it is in Korea.
Excited for some phone keyboard reviews! Jokes aside, hope the move went well and I'm definitely interested in some vlog style content as well! Hope you have a great time there and welcome back scott.
Going to be visiting Korea for G-Star in Busan, and LoL tournament final day in Seoul! Looking forward to it! As for surrounding asian countries come to Tokyo!
YES PLEASE COME TO SINGAPORE
You gotta do a @3ildcat collab
Hey hipyo!
That would be fun! Hope I can run I to him at some events/meets if he joins those. Heard he's been low key recently but hey, never know! If you decide to visit, let me know!
@@Keybored hey keyboard!
omg, welcome to Korea, Scott
Thank you so much DBOKEY! Glad to be here and it's been so far so good! Hope to run into you here :)
Loved this! Please do keep us updated! Thank you for being so open about your life, Scott. Your generosity is incredible and so genuine.
Thank you for the kind words! I really appreciate it! Will try to do small glimpses of my Korean life when I get the chance!
We're so excited to have you back!! hope your moving went well, and you can consistently make videos now 😊😊
Yes! The studio setup is a little janky right now but have to keep tweaking! Setting up audio is a pain!
Great to see you back. Two things I would be interested in.
Learning more about how you got the job/got a work permit and residency.
Learning about the starcraft scene and how it intersects with the keyboard scene.

Yup! I have got in contact with Geon! Will try to work with him and other designers/creators!
Wow. Came for keyboard updates and was schooled on Korea. I was really enjoying the glimpse of Korea you experienced. Was blown away when spoke of the crime or very minimal amount of it there. Where in at you can get stuff stolen by simply stopping at a red light. Very much enjoyed your detailed experiences of your new home.
So different! Will try to show you guys a glimpse!
Minimal crime, but on the other hand zero freedom. Only being allowed to function in a certain way the system approves of..
Welcome back. Wishing you the best in your new endeavors.
Thanks Matthew! It's been a big culture shock initially but getting used to it now! I hope it'll be a great experience and open up new perspectives for me :) hey if you ever decide to visit, let me know!
Good to see you back man! I'll be over to visit shortly.
Come on by! We'll go grab some good food and drinks!
Awesome seeing again you Scott! Hope the move went well my friend.
Likewise! The move was good overall haha. The culture shock initially was pretty big. But getting used to it now! We should catch up!

I want to scrub my eyes. I want to scrub my eyes… why did you have to say bloggos?
Korea has changed a lot! It seems like it always goes through changes!
Congrats on the move! It's fun to hear your updates and changes in your life. Thanks for sharing :D

Missed your videos!
I was going to post a comment and ask if you were just done with the hobby, but then I saw your post about your move to Korea.
Congrats and look forward to more of your work!
Hope the move went well and wishing you all the best in your new home across the ocean! Looking forward to seeing more from you soon Scott.
I've been missing your videos and especially your humor! Yours was one of the first channels I found when I got addicted to this "hobby." I think SK would be a pretty great place to live for a while but definitely different. Glad the move went well and looking forward to more videos!
Thank you for the update! I would love to see vlogs from Korea as well
Welcome back! I'll be very excited to learn more about Korea from you since I'll be there for an overseas exchange, love to come hang at the meetup too!
Awesome man! I've only watched one of your videos before this. This was a fun switch up to what I am use to watching here. Enjoy your time out there.
You should do some content on custom arcade pads: Korea is the home land for creating them as well as the artisan keycap scene ... Most of the modern ones actually use MX switches in hot swap sockets for the buttons.
Glad you are back Scott. Looking forward to new content. Best of luck in Korea.

Thanks for update was waiting for the full jelly evolv video lol definitely interested in all the topics you mentioned in this video
Sounds like a plan!
Awesome! Looking forward to future content!
When you mentioned visiting nearby countries, I was sad that you just missed the biggest keeb meet in the world (to date) here in the Philippines -- The Grand Lason R2. Even Geon himself was here.
Looking forward to your future content. More power!
Welcome back, hope the move was smooth! Looking forward to fresh new content from you again!
Absolutely fascinated of the polar opposites. Although I could never live in a city where everything is crammed with camera surveilance and AI screening and protocoling everything. Madness.
Awesome, man! Thanks for the update and congrats on the move! Definitely would love to see some vlogs or coverage on Korea. Keep 'em coming!
Moving countries is tough! If I moved back to my home country I'm sure I'd get culture shock too. Thanks for the update and the content :D
This is so fascinating! I'm frankly much more interested than I'd imagined I'd be about this journey of yours. Keep us in the loop!
Very cool to see you're back, and awesome that you're in Korea! I'd be interested in anything more specific to the keyboard scene in Korea - differences, general vibe, collab with makers there, etc. You've been my favorite keyboard youtuber for a while and now I'm even more excitied for the future!
Welcome, SK is the unique place to live & learn. Hope will keep seeing ur mech.keyboard content soon.
Yes! Very soon! Have a few in the works!
I’m super interested in your life in Korea! I keep thinking about moving there so I’d love your take on the move!

Love hearing the thoughts of another American on what life is like in Korea. Keep us posted with more vlog stuff! Happy to see you posting again!
Would love to see a video on your work culture transition! I heard it's gnarly over there
awesome!!! welcome back, been missing you :)
It would be cool seeing keybored vlogs the cinematics are so cool
I’m just glad everything is going ok for you scott
Loved to see this update, and happy to hear that you're well! Please share anything about your times in Korea, as it's high on my destination list for travel.

Good to hear from you
I really like hearing you talk buddy. Mech boards and Korea are quite interesting topics to listen to
Haha thanks bud!
I was thinking about you like 5 minutes ago. Welcome back!
Very nice to see you back. Vlogs would definitely be awesome
Got it!
Very interested to have updates on your life in South Korea! Have fun!
Congrats on the awesome change! Your video and update were a blast. I'm super excited to see more of what life's like in South Korea! 🎉😄
Thank you! Will try to show you guys the best I can!
Exciting! Best of luck.
