Incheon - Gate to Korea

- Опубликовано: 4 фев 2025
- Incheon is the city with lots of historical event because it is a port city.
Ever since the port was opened, many Chinese, Japanese and westerner came and they fought each other to take over Korea.
For example, Sino-Japanese war, Russo-Japanese War, Korean War.
None of the war had really nothing to do with Korean people but rather they are affected by whoever stronger at that time.
By the way, people who died the most during Sino-Japanese war were Koreans.
Geographically Korea is located in the middle of strong power, China, Russia, Japan and the USA.
Now the USA and China are the stronger, therefore South and North Korea are heavily influenced by the USA and China.
We just have to be smart, this is how we, small country to survive, of course, I wish Korea gets stronger and influence others or at least be fully independent.
Anyway, I didn't expect this Incheon video to be very historical but well, this is Incheon after travelling several days in Incheon.
Enjoy it and I will see you again in different city of Korea.

Everytime I hear Incheon = Operation Chromite! jaja
A Japanese and Chinese settlement so close to one another :O. Do you know if there are still people from thoose countries living there, or it's just more about the style now? I love how Seoul and Incheon have mountains around them, you can get beautiful views!
I saw a lot of thoose open spaces from the train last time, didn't know they where for salt :D Great video! ^^ Merry Christmas and Happy New Year!! =)
Merry Christmas 🎅 🎄 to you too, Japanese settlement, goverment decorated buildings lately make them look like Japanese building, no Japanese people whatsoever, China town also somewhat recreated by goverment to make it a tourist stop as far as I know, however they do have many Chinese people living and working there mostly HWAGYO Chinese resident or Chinese workers from China seeking for opportunities.
70% of Korea are mountains ⛰, I want to travel again but at the same time I want to work to make money(delivery job) and study Spanish to prepare for the future, so many things to do haha.
This was very insightful. I used to live in Incheon and I haven't explored it as much as you did in this video. This video has made me miss it and I will now visit it again. Thank you for sharing.
Hi JC I lived in Incheon since 1994 and my family still lives there and I live in Goyang now, many places in the video I have never been before haha. I didn't know Incheon has so many historical sites, I didn't intend this video to be full of historical stories and sites.
Incheon...wow, so much to see, you did a great job showing the area.
I love how there is so much of your history preserved and that they allow the public to actually enter and closely look at it. The old government building in the school grounds was awesome...I can't imagine having something like that in a school, so cool! It is awesome to see how the old and new are side by side but blend with each other.
The view from Munhaksan mountain is just so mind blowingly beautiful, I am surprised you can see so far, I have heard the air pollution is quite bad over there and thought it would affect visability. I always find it interesting how different the historical architecture is in different countries, when you were showing us Hwadojin and said it was about 150 years old, I was kind of mentally comparing it to the Queenslander house I grew up that is almost as old and they are just so different.
I'm glad to see you got to spend time with your family and it looks like you had some fun. For me the hardest part of Covid bas been the separation of family, two of my children are adults and live away from me, my middle child lives across the country and we haven't seen her for nearly 2 years now due to all the travel restrictions.
I found the parts about the Korean war interesting, I have some family that fought during it and really don't know much more than that they went to help protect South Korea who had been invaded by North Korea.
Thank you again for another great vid, wonderful content and great camera work! (Sorry for my long comments)
Hi, thank you so much for watching a really long video.
Korea war is something that is recent and had huge impact on our lives so we should really not forget about that, I would love to make a complete video of Korea war someday.
Corona virus is terrible, I hope you can meet your family soon.
Hey, you have become my history teacher, love the information of all the places we visit with you. All the architectural of the old buildings are so beautiful. The view off the Mountain was so magnificent. Pretty cool of where the American and the Korea sign one of their first treaty. Enjoyed seeing your family in the video. Freedom Park was stunning to see and could not believe that you did have fall colors there even though it was December. Have ever been to Hawaii. It is breathtaking. If you get a chance to go, you need too. Just every place you showed today was so awesome. Hope you and your family have a very Happy New Year 🎆
Hey I want to go Hawaii, this Feb I travelled to West coast of the 🇺🇸, pedemic was ok in the states but it was getting worse in Korea, I wanted to extend my stay trying to go to Hawaii haha but air ticket was expensive and hotel and everything was out of my budget, I did enjoy the West coast of 🇺🇸 Zion canyon was really good, I want to visit Zion canyon again, I needed 1 more day there, steak that I had at the hotel near Yosemite was so so so good, haha 😄 🇺🇸 USA so nice.
I really enjoy your content. I know your channel is going to grow quickly. Thank you for showing Incheon. I always wanted to visit the city. Several quick questions, how many days did it take for you to film this episode, and what camera do you use? Thank you for producing wonderful content.
Hi, I visited 5 days but some days just half days, I can make 1 day itinerary, tourist dont need to visit all those.
I been doing over 2 years, I am kind of quiting now, I got other embarrassing 80 videos made private haha.
I love Korea, I want to go filming but I am not sure.
I use Galaxy S10.
Thank you so much for your comment.
@@topkoreatour I hope you don't quit. Your producing great content.
Nice place I want to visit someday! I love the historical places, the mountains, the buildings, places and all beautiful sceneries! Keep making a content.
Yeah, I want to make more videos, but money, time and weather many things to be considered, my next video would be Gwangju if everything goes as I planned.
you have such a nice energy! I smiled throughout the whole video and learned a lot! thank you so much!
Thank you so much for your comment.
From time to time, I get comment like yours and these make me continue to make videos of Korea.
I love Korea so much, I wish I had lots of money so I can just film Korea everyday hahaha.
@@topkoreatour do you have a patreon? :) if you keep making such amazing videos I am sure your dream will come true!
@@karinbauer2541 Thank you so much for your kind word 🙏
Thank you for your video!
This shows so much more of Incheon than what I had found so far.
I already plan on visiting Incheon, and now I know more about its History! Thank you so much!
That bridge looks so much longer than I ever remember it! haha
I'd love to check out the first Jjajangmyeon in Incheon. Taste the difference with the Jajangmyeon as we know it :)
I wish you could get some videos sponsored by the Korean Tourism Organisation. That would help you travel a bit, and would give us more great video content!
Thank you so much for rewriting a comment ❤ I wish Korean government help me to make videos but they only help those with many subscribers or good video filming and editing skill, I am still a beginner.
Only reason why I am still making the video is because I like watching my videos 😄
@@topkoreatour skills can be learned and come with practice :) As for subscribers, we'll continue sharing your content and wish your channel's growth :)
No matter what, I know 'll keep on watching your videos :-) I also enjoy them haha
Great video! Love these views in Korea. Incheon is a very left behind area. The pollution and distance makes it hard to live in these days.
I hate air pollution more than Corona pendemic. What is even more sad is that I don't think it would not get any better in the near future.
@@topkoreatour Me too! If the air pollution in Korea were eliminated, it would be the most beautiful country on Earth to me!
@@thegreatoutdoors3209 Thank you for saying that, I complained a lot before but nothing changed, trust me, I never want to travel to Country with the bad air pollution, I know how awuful that is. Well I kind of gotta love my country, no matter what though.
@@topkoreatour Yeah. Hopefully Korea will change for the next generation. This generation has already struggled through air pollution for so long. Great to hear it !
I know, this is serious issue, really serios.
Hi Juno hope your having a great 2024. I will be visiting Incheon soon to create more content. I have a quick question, where is the Russo-Japanese War Memorial that you showed exactly located? Is it at the Port of Incheon? Is that near Wolmindo Island? Thank you again for your videos, they are awesome and I've learned a lot. Wish you and your family many blessings!
Hi, I am doing great, search Yeonan pier, or Yeoman Buds in Incheon, that is where Japan secretly torpedo to the Russian ship, they destroyed the Russian navy ships first then they declared the war, they built the memorial to remember those who died in 2004 to remember 100th years after the war. Hope you have a great time in Korea.
@@topkoreatour Thank you so much kind sir. Greatly appreciate your kindness. Hope we can cross paths one day! Wish you and your family many blessings!
@@DocuDevotionals awesome, I hope so too. Enjoy Korea 😊
