The man with the North Carolina accent is Kevin. I met him at an arcade bar he works at, or maybe even owns in Sinchon, not sure lol but he’s SOOOOOO nice. I went on a date there and he made us feel super at home. If you ever see this, Hey Kevin, hope you’re doing well! I’ll come visit the bar and get a drink as soon as I get back to Korea :)
@@kdfkdf1711 Uh, not really? If you talk kindergarten and elementary yes, but in middle school its already odd imo and in highschool thats also odd in many countries. I'd say any teacher who teaches middle school or under maybe. Plus there are different cultures, I'm sure some teachers don't feel comfortable calling other kids as their own cause of cultural reasons, which is valid.
When you start calling your students your “kids” and when you care more about your “kids” learning than getting out of work or reaching the weekend. That’s how you know when you’ve finally become a teacher. 👨🏻🏫
@@iaintyourgganbu4715 That's cuz u from the states. We enjoy our Pizza. And I've been a foodie in the states for a decade of studying, tried a lot of renowned pizza places with a lot of study-abroad Koreans.

But in the end, we'll always have our own tastes, and in order to be successful as a business, you'll have to adjust.
On a side note, the South Korean face masks are a really sleek and fitted with little room for air to flow in from the sides...seem much better constructed than those we wear in the US.....
Reason being South Koreans aren't new to wearing masks, due to their country bring exposed to fine dust when the levels are medium/ bad they usually wear masks outside. So theyve had years in developing a mask that's both comfortable and filtered for their ppl.
I'm originally from Illinois, but I now live in Daegu, South Korea. I moved here at the end of 2009, and it was the best thing that ever happened to me. The details why are too long for this comment, but I will agree with most of what was said in this video. I will say this: The United States looks a lot different from the outside than the inside, and the rest of the world also looks a lot different from this perspective.
I honestly think more people need to travel - Americans especially because the political climate and the news they watch is always SO BIASED (like other countries but you just need another perspective), like life is so different in other places.
I lived in Seoul from 97-02. I miss it every day hence watching videos about it. After covid settles down I’m moving myself and my family there. Life is great in Korea!
"Realizing that you live in a community and being mindful of others" versus the modern American mindset of the self is so spot on to what I'm feeling right now.

It s much easier for Chinese and Southeastern Asian immigrants. I am Korean. Governments recent years were against US, pro China, pro North Korea. I am sure this helps you understand why
@@corporatedemocrat As a Korean, actually not. The US is inseparable part with South Korea in almost every area while China has been taking over the US in terms of trade volume recently. All North Koreans here are refugees escaping from their country mostly to find freedom and jobs.
as an american living on maui, i would love to permanently move to korea. i am hoping and waiting for a post-covid world where i can go for a visit someday and maybe catch a mamamoo show
@@juliaj7939 I know, I'm American myself, and I just meant that when you see interviews of Americans here in the States vs those living elsewhere, those living outside seem more down to earth in general.
15:55 He is spitting facts. Korea taught me to show respect to the people around me and not just think about myself (e.g. a lot of koreans won't take calls on the subway as not to disturb other passengers). Corona protestors make me so angry for that very reason. Would never happen in Korea.
Actually, a couple of the major outbreaks in Seoul were related to religious nuts protesting against the government's Corona restrictions. Still, that was a rare exception to the overall voluntary compliance here.
@@thewilythylacine Even tho those people are in the wrong it’s still disrespectful and rude to call them “Religious Nuts” please choose some better words.
I studied in Seoul last year and I realized how little I know of the world living in the US. I’m Hispanic and my culture is all I’ve known that when I went abroad, I began to crave more experiences that I’d not expect. I do want to go back and teaching English there is a quick option and it has stereotypes but I truly want to be a source of help to students and as well learn more about Korea and about myself. Yes I like kpop, but that is not why I’m going. If anything while I was there as a student, I was more drawn to the fast paced city life and small cultural differences than the entertainment life itself.
Just ran across ur comment & I’m like “oh I totally relate Im also Hispanic, live in the US & am into kpop but don’t want to go there just because of kpop” then I saw ur pfp & realized I follow u on tiktok lol! Fellow Atiny! 👏🏻
I was side eyeing her for not at least learning how to say a simple coffee order in Korean. The word for coffee in Korean is almost identical to what it is in English. She could’ve just put the tiniest bit of effort in 😑
@@PhDShelbyAdventures I disagree. My experience with learning a language that few outsiders speak: If you ask for a coffee in fluid grammatical English, some people will be frustrated that you're assuming they speak English. If you ask for a coffee like in the video, some people will find you patronising. If you ask for a coffee with a bad attempt the native language, some people will wish you'd just asked in English, or seen your white face and assumed you're not trying to speak the native language. Some people will be frustrated you're using them to practice the language. As a traveller, some people are just going to dislike you. The key is to ignore it and transmit information in the least ambiguous way. As a native, if you want tourists to contribute to your economy, you're just going to have to adapt to basic handsigns.
I was surprised by her comment because I went to South Korea last year and I had the opposite view. I've traveled a lot and I was surprised to how little English they spoke in SK, and yes, I was in Seoul. Nonetheless, I highly recommend you visit SK, it is so fun and amazing!
I am always thankful for getting to hear the opinions of intellectual and well-spoken people. It is truly gratifying to dive a bit deeper into some aspects instead of surfing along the harmless but superficial aspects of something. So yes in that regard, thanks for letting the interviewees elaborate on their thoughts quite a bit!!
Americans should really travel outside the US, there is more to the world than the US's individualism and selfishness. Cuz frankly, not everything is about you at the end of the day.
lol you say this like you buy into the everybody in the usa is rich stereotype. most folks have to save for a year just to travel to see family in the united states. or actually have job where they can take time off and still get paid.
I’m American living in Korea and I love it ! I live outside of Seoul and have traveled to different parts of Korea. Korea is really really beautiful! There are a lot of opportunities here !
@@kierrarichardson80 Jeju is great! It's the top destination in Korea for a reason. Beautiful coastal scenery, lots of scenic cafés, and good hiking. As with any tourist area, there are lots of overpriced/mediocre restaurants and corny tourist traps. I recommend a visit 😀
18:00 I am living in the States. I never seen anyone who has broaden perspectives toward the world like him. All he was saying can be such an inspiration to other Americans.
GREAT VIDEO! Im a huge fan of Korean music and the culture and really want to visit and possibly stay for a year or so and this provided a lot of insight on Americans in Korea.
Broke to move, can't leave their comfort zone, afraid,give it some time and it will eventually get worse enough for people to overcome such things and eventually move.
I’m American and I live in Korea now. I’m going to have to go home this year because my parents are elderly and need a lot of help. So, family is definitely a big reason to stay in the USA.
It's a very small difference, but Koreans (people living in Korea) wear the best masks among Koreans, Japanese and Chinese. Not just in any one video, but almost all the time. And actually, Korean masks are really really good.
I think that’s how it is in all the Asian countries, I haven’t really researched why but I’d imagine it’s to hide identities and things along those lines. That’s something I really like about Asian countries and their cultures, they are very responsible in the manner of being professional and respectful.
I love hearing their stories. Their exposure outside of their mother country has broaden their horizon. I wish more people have an opportunity to travel.
Countries in Asia will pay twice or even triple the average salary for an American teacher. I met a lot of American teachers that were simply tired of being overworked, underpaid, and unappreciated in American schools. A lot of international schools in Asia will even cover the cost of the teacher's travel expenses and arrange a home for them to live in when they arrive, so it's very convenient. ***WARNING: You still need to be careful when accepting jobs in a foreign country and read your employment contract carefully. There are unaccredited schools out there that take advantage of foreign teachers. Always do your research!
Good! It's important that you acknowledged that not all employers are legit or accredited. It's a tragedy when people are taken advantage of due to predatory work contracts or employers. To the best of one's ability do your due diligence.
But that doesn’t mean they are better teachers.. so many students studying in Korea they don’t practice what they teach... and you pay so much for school and not getting the education you need... yes they might cover the Korean teacher expenses but that doesn’t mean they are good teacher/ for teaching students.
When you're living in Asia, it's like you're living living everyday in the future. When you're living in the USA, it's more so living for the present and past. I never knew the stress I carried as an American, until I returned & felt it hit me all at once (Sandy Hook). Never once did I worry about a school (public) shooting, police harassment, fear of mugging/rape. Yes, racism exists there but it doesn't feel so personal or hateful.
I first got into being into Korean through media, music, etc. And I would still say I am a kpop fan. However it's really important to not make huge life choices based after the assumption that Korea is going to be a wonderland. I really want to go because I've been itching to see the world and I'd really like to experience Korea 1st hand, all the goods and bads of it.
Same. I've been into kpop for about 15 years and just now started buying books to learn hangeul well. Now I've learned much more about the country faithfully to gain knowledge and not just as a wonderland. I would love to teach there if I can and be prepared to do the ups and down too.
Well I recommend you guys not just visit seoul but visit many other huge cities like busan, Daegu, daejeon, jeju do, gyeongju, incheon, and many other cities.
Just as an aside: When they say "living in Korea" they really mean "living in Seoul" since this is where this interview is conducted. For some of us living outside of Seoul and are in other places of the country it's hit or miss. Just wanted to point that out lovely humans :)
@@nicoleraheem1195 Can't really compare since for most of my time here I haven't lived in Seoul. But anecdotally in my part of the country, the vast majority of people still don't know enough English to know what I'm saying. Remember the part of this video where the lady orders coffee and gets a perfect reply in English when her expectations were 0? In my experience, I've always encountered scenarios that have been at or close to that expectation. That's why I said it's hit or miss and depends solely on where you live and the people around you.
@@donyconjux1 That would make sense. Given that majority of labor force in the service industry are consist of people in their early 20s. And you know if you are a Korean in your early 20s and somehow still residing in countryside, chances are you are academically incompetent.
@@nicoleraheem1195 I live outside of Seoul in a small town that is booming. I am American and Black and I love it ! There are a lot of great places outside of Seoul . I have friends working in the deep country side who enjoy it. For me living in certain places would be hard because there isn’t much to do but the town I’m in is a great mixture of nature and city kind of like a mini Busan.
Some Americans are aware of how challenging it is to gain citizenship but you have the outliers who think it’s a walk in a park. It’s like they never listened in school when we learned how to gain citizenship if we were non US citizens.
@Noa Ella If you don't mind harsh and long winters, then Canada is great. But just like America, the experience of living in Canada depends on where you live in it. The quality of life is different in different cities.
If you live in a city (not rural) absolutely. There are companies that make bulletproof school backpacks and school doors here... We have a pretty serious gun problem in the US unfortunately :(
I agree with what the guy said around being raised thinking individualism is #1 but actually there is benefit to putting the needs of the community before yourself. I really appreciate that about korea. It's not always me me me but also us us us.
As a former expat who taught English in Seoul for 2 yrs back in 2009-2011, this was awesome. Thank you for this segment ☺. It was so interesting to see other expats explain their experiences and their views on South Korea. It was an amazing experience for me and I love hearing about how it has impacted them. I did feel safer there bc of their gun laws. I miss the national health insurance and cheap cost of living. I sometimes wish I can go back 😕
relatable lol But I found it kinda nice to travel alone because unless you actively try to meet people, no one is going to call you up for dinner or smth
I'm an introvert who travels a lot, traveling doesn't mean you have to mingle with other people. 😊 the most challenging thing for me is asking a stranger to take my picture 😂 but overall, traveling is fun.
(From u.s.) When I visited Korea 🇰🇷 almost 10 yrs ago I realized how little I knew about the world and really how little they teach us about the world and The Korean civil war. Such a beautiful country and soooo happy and thankful I was able to experience it ❤ ♥ 💗 I got to visit the Korean history museum and I felt way smaller than the girl with the coffee assumption lol
I’ve lived in Korea while in the military, and traveled there a few times outside of the military. I absolutely love it there. I hope to live there one day!
I lived in Korea for 3 years and they were the best years of my life. It's a peaceful country, the nature is breathtaking, food is healthy, and everything is well organized. Plus, it's very safe and offers a great lifestyle. I live in Thailand right now, but I plan to go back to Korea in 2022. My only regret is not getting my masters in English and then going to Korea.
Interesting. I've heard good things about Thailand too, though. The people and food, etc. What do you like or not like about living in Thailand compared to Korea? Just curious.
@@kmariamv lmao this is least about color and more of the individual, stop making every opinion generalized towards a certain group of people, you dont sound woker by that reply, curb it
Me being an immigrant in Korea, I would never go back to my home country again, The Netherlands. This pandemic really has shown people's true colors and it has told me that my home country is not the place for me.
@@koyukiny Interesting take. My 'western' country has no cases of the virus right now. Korea recently spiked to 1000 new cases a day. We're still under a level 2.5 lockdown in Seoul, whereas my instagram is full of pictures of my friends enjoying the summertime back home without masks or really any worries about coronavirus at all.
mangotango probably both. Dutch people do both. Discriminating Asian people because of covid and because they think it is fun to do so. And at the same time being the one disobeying safety rules.
It’s so weird seeing Americans identify themselves as foreigners. I feel like every bigoted American should go over to another country have to go through the visa process and live within that society to see how other people in America feel every day.
ehh, I don't think so bc Seoul literally the main port to international businesses, and mostly most influence here bc of its musics and entertainments. So, the chance are slim for Americans or any other foreigners living outside of Seoul, and for a reason, Seoul is the most expensive city after all, those people whose were able to afford living in Seoul must have a lucrative salary.
A friend of mine has lived both in Seoul & outside of Seoul for multiple years. She prefers the country. Said people in Seoul were more distant. They assumed all foreigners are there temporarily and avoided developing close friendships her. However, she immediately reported that living in the country is way more inviting and warm. She has friends who are like family to her there now. I will say she started learning Korean years before she moved there, so communicating in Korean was never an issue for her. If you are able to get over the language hurdle and find a supportive community, living abroad becomes easier. Same experience for a friend in Fukuoka, Japan. Learning Japanese and building a community of lasting friendships made that area more comfortable to her than the U.S.
@@Bambammbi slim chance? The US has a large base in Gyeonggi-do, so there are a lot of American army/military families and contractors living around Pyeongtaek and Osan.
I lived in a small town in the southern part for two years and now live near Seoul. I much preferred the small town, as people were friendlier and the nature was nice :)
15:53 Bravo, very well said. Those who experience the communial society like South Korea and the way they emphasize community over self, your sense of belonging and sense of worth will generally increase compared to living an individualistic " my way or the highway" life style. Individualism is a lonely road while communial society is a wholistic approach to life.
Living in Korea, as an American, myself right now, I have to say this was a very good interview video! Couldn't agree more with the other Americans. I love living here, and plan to live here for a LONG time.
As an Army Brat that lived in Korea twice, and grew up there. I miss it and it's my home outside of the U.S. Hopefully I can go back there one day. There should be something mentioned about the U.S. military presents there.
IIRC the people on base are in a pretty strict quarantine at the moment. And there are only a handful of DOD people in Seoul nowadays anyway. I think that might explain why there weren't any interviewed in this video.
I am originally from Portland, OREGON, USA. I have been living in Seoul, Korea for last 15 years. Now I feel like Seoul is my hometown. I travelled many countries, although I loved each country, but Seoul is the only place I want to live in.
The white dude with the red hat was being real af hats off to you sir Americans here in my country also act like locals are privileged to just talk to them and they think they’re the centre of the word so yeah some are deffo delusional
@@TastesSEOULGood no dude your alright it’s quite clear but those who wanna distort your world will do that either ways so don’t bother you were being real
This is one of the reasons I think that Americans around the world are considered arrogant, plus since we're brainwashed here in the states, that 'we're the best', people believe that crap.
Thank you again what a wonderful and refreshing unbiased look at asian culture. Not prettied up or put down like some youtubers do. Like that one interviewee put so well that we are all just people doing the best we can. Very true:)
@@phamnuwen9442 all peace. it's not meant to be offensive. It's a phrase used by RUclipsr Philip DeFranco that he lovingly uses for his channel viewers
@@phamnuwen9442 I was only calling the stupid people stupid with my mask. Also it is a reference to a RUclips news station that has a segment called "Don't Be Stupid Stupid". Sorry you didn't get the joke. Remember random people aren't stupid, just the stupid people are stupid!
Thanks, I wore the mask knowing there would be an interview. After the interview ended the interviewer, Alex, asked about the mask, and he thought it was pretty cool. I'm glad there's a bit of crossover between Philip De Franco and Asian Boss!
This video was quite interesting. As a Korean-American, I’m glad to be a U.S. citizen for many reasons. Though I’ve enjoyed visiting my relatives in S. Korea, I wouldn’t want to live there. Though I’d look like any other Korean, the way I act, think and feel is definitely more American. It was refreshing to hear how they felt being stereotyped, especially since I’ve been stereotyped most of my life. Every country has its pros and cons though.
The level of thoughtfulness and intelligence in the responses from all of the people interviewed was so nice to see! The reporter was also lovely and asked really thought provoking, relevant, and considerate questions!
Actual topic aside big props to the interviewees who spoke really well on the spot - I’d probably take 5 minutes to think of an answer without stuttering
AMAZING VIDEO, really loved everyone's individual answers and insights! The man who was talking about American individualism and the other man who was talking about America's brainwashing was really on point.
The only channel im so grateful of them putting an ads in the middle of the video, hopefully itll be enough for sustaining this amazing channel. Good video as always, keep it up!
Asian Boss is an American company run by Americans with Asian faces who hate Asia. Asian Boss is an extremely anti-Korean media. They have been spreading 'Korea is the most racist country in the world! Period!' narrative for years!
Watching this video gives me life. I'm in the process of finishing college. I'm planning to start my move to Korea within the next few years. I'm a science major and looking forward to a new life in korea. Also, great job with all of the interviews Alex! I really liked everyone's different perspectives and that everyone was given a chance to speak without interruption. Good job!

Its funny how Americans are saying it's hard to get citizenship and Visa approved in korea 😂😂😂
Facts yesterday I saw these two immigrants that waited 20 years to get their permanent visa not even a bloody citizenship ...crazy
It s much easier for Chinese and Southeastern Asian immigrants. I am Korean. Governments recent years were against US, pro China, pro North Korea. I am sure this helps you understand why
@@corporatedemocrat As a Korean, actually not. The US is inseparable part with South Korea in almost every area while China has been taking over the US in terms of trade volume recently. All North Koreans here are refugees escaping from their country mostly to find freedom and jobs.
Maybe they should just demand a citizenship as it is in USA these days.
Aren't you curious about our opinion of 150,000 bipedal aniiiimals?
as an american living on maui, i would love to permanently move to korea. i am hoping and waiting for a post-covid world where i can go for a visit someday and maybe catch a mamamoo show

Agreed! Such an intelligent answer.
Actually, a couple of the major outbreaks in Seoul were related to religious nuts protesting against the government's Corona restrictions. Still, that was a rare exception to the overall voluntary compliance here.

I studied in Seoul last year and I realized how little I know of the world living in the US. I’m Hispanic and my culture is all I’ve known that when I went abroad, I began to crave more experiences that I’d not expect. I do want to go back and teaching English there is a quick option and it has stereotypes but I truly want to be a source of help to students and as well learn more about Korea and about myself. Yes I like kpop, but that is not why I’m going. If anything while I was there as a student, I was more drawn to the fast paced city life and small cultural differences than the entertainment life itself.
All N & S America is boring
i have the similar experience too! hope you become successful in korea :)

@@PhDShelbyAdventures Exactly lol. Coffee orders are literally pronounced the same there, just with a korean accent💀
@@PhDShelbyAdventures I disagree. My experience with learning a language that few outsiders speak:
If you ask for a coffee in fluid grammatical English, some people will be frustrated that you're assuming they speak English.
If you ask for a coffee like in the video, some people will find you patronising.
If you ask for a coffee with a bad attempt the native language, some people will wish you'd just asked in English, or seen your white face and assumed you're not trying to speak the native language. Some people will be frustrated you're using them to practice the language.
As a traveller, some people are just going to dislike you. The key is to ignore it and transmit information in the least ambiguous way. As a native, if you want tourists to contribute to your economy, you're just going to have to adapt to basic handsigns.

If I learned one thing from this video it's that the mask game in South Korea is strong. Those things look good

Americans with high wages do enjoy their travel abroad, or so I've heard.
Guess which nation travels overseas the most after China? Let me give you a hint, its in the Western Hemisphere.
Prior to the 70s, every Korean wanted to immigrate to America. 2020, everybody wants to live in Korea.
Omg. So true. Our family came to US 30 yrs ago. Now my husband and I are seriously considering moving to Korea
Unfortunately my parents messed up bad.
"Everybody wants to live in Korea." Not true. Not everybody. 👌
Well it good korea takes immigration seriously and only allows a certain amount of visas.
I'd like to move to Singapore, I definitely want to immigrate to another country that's for sure.
I’m American living in Korea and I love it ! I live outside of Seoul and have traveled to different parts of Korea. Korea is really really beautiful! There are a lot of opportunities here !
But if you come expecting and basing it off Korean dramas you will be disappointed and honestly that’s on you.
Have you been to Jeju island yet? How was the experience if so.
Basically the only opportunity is to teach English in order to live there
@@kierrarichardson80 Jeju is great! It's the top destination in Korea for a reason. Beautiful coastal scenery, lots of scenic cafés, and good hiking. As with any tourist area, there are lots of overpriced/mediocre restaurants and corny tourist traps. I recommend a visit 😀

The real question: Why would Americans live in America in 2021?
Broke to move, can't leave their comfort zone, afraid,give it some time and it will eventually get worse enough for people to overcome such things and eventually move.
Cuz they can't afford to? 75% of Americans couldn't afford a sudden $400 expense, how the hell we affording immigrants fees!?
Family, friends, job
I’m American and I live in Korea now. I’m going to have to go home this year because my parents are elderly and need a lot of help. So, family is definitely a big reason to stay in the USA.
What kinda question is that? Must be British
It's a very small difference, but Koreans (people living in Korea) wear the best masks among Koreans, Japanese and Chinese. Not just in any one video, but almost all the time. And actually, Korean masks are really really good.
Need a real S.K. mask? 👏 Aaron 👏 Collins 👏. Look him up..
I think that’s how it is in all the Asian countries, I haven’t really researched why but I’d imagine it’s to hide identities and things along those lines. That’s something I really like about Asian countries and their cultures, they are very responsible in the manner of being professional and respectful.

Countries in Asia will pay twice or even triple the average salary for an American teacher. I met a lot of American teachers that were simply tired of being overworked, underpaid, and unappreciated in American schools. A lot of international schools in Asia will even cover the cost of the teacher's travel expenses and arrange a home for them to live in when they arrive, so it's very convenient.
***WARNING: You still need to be careful when accepting jobs in a foreign country and read your employment contract carefully. There are unaccredited schools out there that take advantage of foreign teachers. Always do your research!
Good! It's important that you acknowledged that not all employers are legit or accredited. It's a tragedy when people are taken advantage of due to predatory work contracts or employers. To the best of one's ability do your due diligence.
Oh
In China private school, yes .
But that doesn’t mean they are better teachers.. so many students studying in Korea they don’t practice what they teach... and you pay so much for school and not getting the education you need... yes they might cover the Korean teacher expenses but that doesn’t mean they are good teacher/ for teaching students.
Yes I believe there's a different value & respect level for educators in other countries outside of the U.S
When you're living in Asia, it's like you're living living everyday in the future. When you're living in the USA, it's more so living for the present and past. I never knew the stress I carried as an American, until I returned & felt it hit me all at once (Sandy Hook). Never once did I worry about a school (public) shooting, police harassment, fear of mugging/rape. Yes, racism exists there but it doesn't feel so personal or hateful.
Wow where do you live in the U.S. As an American I never felt any of that.

I first got into being into Korean through media, music, etc. And I would still say I am a kpop fan. However it's really important to not make huge life choices based after the assumption that Korea is going to be a wonderland. I really want to go because I've been itching to see the world and I'd really like to experience Korea 1st hand, all the goods and bads of it.
Same. I've been into kpop for about 15 years and just now started buying books to learn hangeul well. Now I've learned much more about the country faithfully to gain knowledge and not just as a wonderland. I would love to teach there if I can and be prepared to do the ups and down too.
Well I recommend you guys not just visit seoul but visit many other huge cities like busan, Daegu, daejeon, jeju do, gyeongju, incheon, and many other cities.

Just as an aside: When they say "living in Korea" they really mean "living in Seoul" since this is where this interview is conducted. For some of us living outside of Seoul and are in other places of the country it's hit or miss. Just wanted to point that out lovely humans :)
How is it outside of Seoul?
@@nicoleraheem1195 Can't really compare since for most of my time here I haven't lived in Seoul. But anecdotally in my part of the country, the vast majority of people still don't know enough English to know what I'm saying. Remember the part of this video where the lady orders coffee and gets a perfect reply in English when her expectations were 0? In my experience, I've always encountered scenarios that have been at or close to that expectation. That's why I said it's hit or miss and depends solely on where you live and the people around you.

@@donyconjux1 That would make sense. Given that majority of labor force in the service industry are consist of people in their early 20s. And you know if you are a Korean in your early 20s and somehow still residing in countryside, chances are you are academically incompetent.

The guy who's complaining about how difficult the visa process is should try to be a non US citizen trying to come to the US. :)
FOR REAL
Nobody wants that. America is a shithole. Greets from TX
Some Americans are aware of how challenging it is to gain citizenship but you have the outliers who think it’s a walk in a park. It’s like they never listened in school when we learned how to gain citizenship if we were non US citizens.

It’s so weird seeing Americans identify themselves as foreigners. I feel like every bigoted American should go over to another country have to go through the visa process and live within that society to see how other people in America feel every day.
Every bigoted person in the world, regardless of nationality, should.
Trust me, bigoted Americans will stilll think they're in America and the US constitution follows them wherever they go.
Part of me worries that those individuals would demand South Koreans to conform to them. Also, scared of causing gentrification.
Ye but u can say that bout anywhere regardless of American or any other nationality aren't fond of foreigners
@@MADEbySOUL You are worried about gentrification in Korea???
Interesting! I wonder how or if answers would vary if Americans living in South Korea, outside of Seoul, were interviewed.
Not really. I've lived outside Seoul for years. These are accurate. Only difference is locals don't speak English as fluently outside of Seoul.
ehh, I don't think so bc Seoul literally the main port to international businesses, and mostly most influence here bc of its musics and entertainments. So, the chance are slim for Americans or any other foreigners living outside of Seoul, and for a reason, Seoul is the most expensive city after all, those people whose were able to afford living in Seoul must have a lucrative salary.
A friend of mine has lived both in Seoul & outside of Seoul for multiple years. She prefers the country. Said people in Seoul were more distant. They assumed all foreigners are there temporarily and avoided developing close friendships her. However, she immediately reported that living in the country is way more inviting and warm. She has friends who are like family to her there now.
I will say she started learning Korean years before she moved there, so communicating in Korean was never an issue for her. If you are able to get over the language hurdle and find a supportive community, living abroad becomes easier. Same experience for a friend in Fukuoka, Japan. Learning Japanese and building a community of lasting friendships made that area more comfortable to her than the U.S.
@@Bambammbi slim chance? The US has a large base in Gyeonggi-do, so there are a lot of American army/military families and contractors living around Pyeongtaek and Osan.
I lived in a small town in the southern part for two years and now live near Seoul. I much preferred the small town, as people were friendlier and the nature was nice :)

15:53 Bravo, very well said. Those who experience the communial society like South Korea and the way they emphasize community over self, your sense of belonging and sense of worth will generally increase compared to living an individualistic " my way or the highway" life style.

IIRC the people on base are in a pretty strict quarantine at the moment. And there are only a handful of DOD people in Seoul nowadays anyway. I think that might explain why there weren't any interviewed in this video.
