Who else watched just to hear the accent? (Love Scottish accents btw)😂🤣 I grew up in the Deep Deep South in an adopted family. Both of my sisters are Asian and have such thick Southern accents people lose their minds!!
SAME. I’m in the south too and I grew up as the only chinese in my area. I literally just searched chinese in scotland so i can dream ill find my own chinese Jamie (if you watch Outlander 😂)
Asian means Indian/Pakistan in UK.
@@cheyeung4935 Not where I'm from.
@@cheyeung4935 It includes all of geographic Asia (Eastern Asia) including the Southern and Western parts of Asia too.
@@cheyeung4935 who told you that?
He must be fun to be mates with. Has a big sense of humor and doesn't take himself too serious.
I read “he must be fun to mate with”
People who don't take themselves seriously tend to be un-intelligent.
@@RR-pe5or what utter pompous drivel.
Not just the accent, but the Scottish gait... the swagger. This guy is more Scots than me :)
He doesn't know why he feels more Scottish in Hong Kong or China? Maybe because he IS Scottish? Your socialization is what forms your identity, not your race. Usually they are the same, but not always.
Well, he doesn’t stop being Chinese just because he was born a couple of thousand kilometres away from his ancestral homeland. Race and ethnicity matter more than nationality.
White or Wong?
@@jpmcft3194why tf would he feel Chinese if he wasn’t born and brought up there, he said his grandfather came to Scotland from china, this dude literally has no direct connection to china other than his ancestors, of course he would feel like a foreigner in china.
What a nice bloke, wish him every bit of luck.
a local lad from just outside Glasgow, being south Asian and Scottish I feel his paid when growing up however i was lucky to have a lot of people around me who looked liked me and there grew a strong sense of community within Asians in Glasgow 😀
That shows then you were just out of place in Scotland itself unless you are part of an integrated but non-assimilated community which is itself foreign to Scotland.
This trips me out so much! I think he’s so cool and extra unique. It’s amazing me to me
Cool Accent! Asian Man with Scottish Accent Blows My Mind. Love Asian Cuisine & Would Listen To The Accent For Bedtime Stories & Lullabies Forever.
Scottish man with Scottish accent.
I am Scots born and bred, I have never met a Chinese-Scottish person in my entire life, he is a very rare breed, must be hard to be the different one in School. Kids must of looked at him like he came out of a museum. My mum Grew up in Africa with Blonde hair and Blue eyes she said all the Africans were just so shocked when they saw her walking down the street
The homegrown East Asian population (of which I'm a part) is only about half a million (probably higher since that statistic)... Most people are quite surprised by this number, as they think they see East Asians all the time, but most in the big cities are migrants or students.
@@bill5328 You never heard of the 'Crusades'?..🤔
@@bill5328 I'm at a loss to determine exactly what your point is with that last comment. What are they trying to win?
Only countryside jacks only knows stuff in his/her village.
*Can you make a TikTok where you say "purple burglar alarm"?*
Love his accent
I was fortunate to work in Hong Kong, it was a dream from my youth, I love the people, the culture, It was just the best time. This man is a gem, I wish he hadn't suffered racial nonsense, however, I am proud that he dealt with it & progressed so well. He is so so Scottish, whilst also being Chinese & that makes me so proud. China, that ancient fascinating culture, civilisation, that has given so much to the world. Braw lad.
What a lovely guy, gives of really good vibes
Lonely existence but he got a fantastic accent from it.
This is a great video and I'd love to pop in to your restaurant.
I am half Malaysian in Scotland only in s1 and I have faced lots of racism and its definitely still a big thing in Scotland
Sorry to hear that. I am English and have just moved to Scotland so don't worry too much, you are definitely more loved than we are!! There are also 2 types of racism I find. The first is just fuelled by lack of education or world experience and bemusement and doesn't go further than childish jokes or stupid insults, but deep down those same people would stand up for you if it really kicked off. The second type is nasty, venomous and violent and fortunately this type is limited to a few nobheads who are hated even by their own peers.
If I can do anything to help you in Scotland I will do my best, you only have to ask via replies and I will give you my email and we can discuss things there in privacy. I have also spent 25 years overseas so I know how it feels, and I just want you to know I have got your back and I have many friends here who are good people. So real world assistance or just a chat, I am here. Have a good day mate
Every nation has racism in it, that's just how it is, everybody is biased to their own background, that's just human nature, as humans are tribalist by instinct. So does Malaysia and England, they are just as bad. Scotland belongs to the Scots, it is their nation but there is the misconception many non-Scots have.
Racism is everywhere. Many black people get a hard time in China, and many Westerners face a kind of aloof racism in Japan. The Uyghurs face racism in China. Urban blacks in America chase Chinese guys down the street. I've heard some Chinese people complain about how Koreans viewed them when they lived in Korea. White people get stared at when they're in Africa. And that's just for skin color. People with different accents also face mockery around the world.
Oh I want to meet him irl! He's fun
I love this guy
I'm of Chinese descent as well. This isn't chinese food. This is drunk people food. 😂😂
I am also Scottish Chinese
Awesome.
will you ride his big dragon? for the AMWF promotion
I really like these kinds of nice, relaxing, casual, and very beautiful stories 🦦
Talk about animals more! 🐸
That is a really sexy accent, and he's very good looking
Yes he is tall and very well built compared to your average Chinese guy.
@@ycl9234Chinese people can be tall, especially more in the North, just look at Lan Di (aka Rantei, aka Zhao Longsun), he has the stature of a North Indian and a Scotsman - who were both notoriously the tallest groups, the Scots were the tallest people in all of Europe for most of their history.
*His father is infamous in these parts for his portrayal of the Scottish Asian in the Skittles commercial*
Very Cool ascent
Great Smile
Chinese foods are insanely delicious! 🏕
I wonder how vegan Chinese foods will taste like 😁
Am Scottish and my new family are chinese brothers and sisters in jesus christ Thank the lord for them
Arnold ?
When I travelled to other parts of the world, my Texas drawl becomes an instant infatuation.
Another example of Chinese thriving in every continent
I love Scottish accents.
Ahhhh good shaggin stuff mate 🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺
On the phone he will sound like a actual Scottish man
Try an Asian guy who sounds Irish, people in Ireland don’t really care though
There’s plenty of Asians in Ireland
Totally get what he's saying. You're neither fully one nor the other, but at the same time, you're both.
I've never seen an Asian guy with a Scottish accent before. Especially a thick one like that. Feels really odd. I had loads of Asian kids at my school who grew up here by they always sounded so neutral in their accents.
He’s Scottish. He was born in Hamilton which is a town in Scotland. Therefore the man talking in the video is not just ‘an Asian guy with a Scottish accent.’ He’s a Scottish guy talking with the accent that other Scottish guys talk with.
@@JohnSmith-nx2bl He is not Scottish.
@@ux3476 Explain why he’s not Scottish. He did say he grew up near Glasgow.
@@JohnSmith-nx2blHe's not ethnically Scottish. Just because a dog is born in a horse stable, doesn't mean it's a horse. I respect this man very much. But I would never say he will be a true Scot and I will not view him as one either.
@@ux3476 I’m a white Scottish man and he’s as Scottish as me.
Scottish accents are the best
Asianless UK's only Asian people
Got loads of racism thrown at me in China. Know how you feel.
Hijacking the conversation...
@@rahuldahoobspitting facts, clown
Like how? Or you just bashing China like a lot of people do? The racism in China is different from the West. Dont come at me and say racism is racism.
@@TheRealMcCoyAndChipsAhoy take a look at wechat channels. You'll see a pattern. Animal abuse. Rampant racism (absolutely accepted online and person to person) and anti-west rhetoric. I rest my case. Don't reply.
Because you want only white people to be able to be racist, and other types of racism doesnt exist, right? @@rahuldahoob
He looks like an asian nick eh 30
Trust the BBC to start with racism.
???
Cringe.
Why?
@rahuldahoob This general attempt to promote a generation of 'race grifters' into Scotland and do the place down. You would never see a Scot go to China and claim to be Chinese after living there for decades and then talk about how racist or bigoted it is, even though it probably is, more so infact by comparison. And you'd never see people blame the Chinese either for not seeing or accepting that Scot as Chinese, being Scottish is more than just living there, when you set foot in China, you don't just immediately call yourself Chinese, do you? If being Chinese means something, then being Scottish also means something distinct.
He was born and raised in Scotland, has a Scotland accent, and he doesn’t say he isn’t Chinese.
There isn’t really a problem here man, I don’t think he’ll be apart of this “Chinese Invasion” and he can still keep Scotland the way it is.
The Chinese are ok I find they are friendly taking your money but dont want to know you socially if they see you.Stick to their own really....
Jerrryyyy, have you ever wanted to get to know them? Enjoy their culture or do you want them to conform to your white ways?
Signed a white girl With a Chinese husband!
yeah that's how they are even with their own kind
How many many Chinese do you know to say something like that? Would it be OK if I generalized about an ethnic minority, only having known a handful of them?
let's not stereotype an entire country of 1.4 billion people now
@@emilysze1145 If “conform to your white ways” means assimilating to a certain degree after immigration, that’s fine with me. It is, of course, wrong to stereotype every Chinese person, but ultimately it’s up to them to decide who they wish to hang out with.
