Side note: the Swedish girl was amazing, I dream about being at her level of fluency 💕
Dudes, the Swedish lady is absolutely SPOT ON when it came to pronunciation. She spoke very well, and some of her expressions were sophisticated for someone who's been studying for only 2.5 years. Well done!
Totally - she definitely has some serious raw language skills! Jealous! 😅

Her pronunciation is very good and near native like someone who has lived in Korea for a number of years and not for seven months. That is how long she has been studying Korean. I don’t know if her expressions are sophisticated. They are just everyday expressions, which is fine, but sometimes, people can get the wrong idea if you call something “sophisticated“.
@@jiminswriter4209 I suppose sophisticated may be somewhat hyperbolic, but I'd still say she has more sophisticated SPEAKING skills than others in the video.
I said sophisticated for someone who's been studying for such a short time. Things like "That can happen" or "actively studying" are expressions native Koreans casually use rather than stock textbook answers most language learners use; especially early in their learning. Compared to other interviewees who studied longer, I'd say her answers were much more in line with how Koreans naturally speak.
주제가 한정적이었던게 조금 아쉽기하죠 ㅋㅋㅋㅋ 아무래도 깊은 대화를 나눌 수 없으니.... 그것만 보고 판단하고 추측으로 판단하는 댓글을 보니 조금 아쉽네요 ㅎㅎㅎ
The first girl's energy was amazing. She was so soft spoken and she comes across as a very kind hearted person that you can have a lot of fun with!!
What in tf… that Swedish girl’s Korean is insane. I think if most people just closed their eyes they would just assume she is Korean.
The Korean I aspire to have 😮
Yeah, her sound and pronunciation are both very on the mark! Way impressive!
Asian women do not like black men
I want to be like her >.
I’m Korean and I was mind blown. It makes sense tho I guess cus she said she learns by diving right in and speaking with natives. She almost sounds like a native speaker in many ways. You can tell she didn’t learn from a text book.
Swedish and Korean have very similar pronunciation, especially the vowels, they’re all the same. For example, IKEA is a Swedish company and the Korean pronunciation is the same as the Swedish pronunciation: ih-kaeh-ah, compared to the English pronunciation; eye-key-ah. I’m Swedish and I’ve been told I have a very fluent pronunciation as well, despite not yet being fluent in terms of grammar and vocabulary.
wow, the swedish girl sounded so comfortable and natural! i’ve been studying korean for the exactly same amount of time, but i haven’t had the courage to seek out natives to speak to… so i really really doubt that i could speak half as easily as her or maybe even most people in this video, but i guess being in korea physically is an advantage as well, even though of course i could at least talk to someone through that app from this video haha

@@gentlyminimal ohhh i didn’t know that, how curious! when i had the choice of whether to study finnish or swedish being in finland, i chose the former, so i really don’t know anything about the swedish language, but this fact that you told me makes me wanna look into it haha
@@gentlyminimaldo swedes have it easier with pronouncing double consonants too?
@@rakiyt3876 theoretically, maybe? We do have some consonants we pronounce softer or harder depending on the word. But from personal experience, no lol. Korean double consonants are so f-ing hard... I can still barely distinguish ㅂ ㅃ and ㅍ from eachother. One day I'm like "oh, i think I've figured it out!", next "ah, nope, still confused".
@@gentlyminimal Jag håller med att de är såå svåra. Men skönt att höra att folk tycker ditt uttal är bra ändå. Det är motiverande att höra
Love to see people pushing themselves and broadening their mind with a new language and a foreign culture! Opening new doors is a wonderful thing 🙂

remember guys "comparison is the #1 killer of progress", it doesn't matter how long it takes for you to speak it as long as your goal is to speak korean! We all have different ways to learn stop comparing urself with others -.-
This 🤌🏼
correcttt...you can pnly compare yourself to your old self
Respect to all of you. I love anyone who tries to learn other languages for good reasons. You guys are awesome.
what are bad reasons
@@Ban00That's actually a good question 💀
Great interview. The Brooklyn woman is spot on about learning the language. You peak when learning via books, and it's difficult to remember what you've learned when in the real environment. You have to immerse yourself.
The first person is so well spoken! I was immersed.
Thankyou so much jerry. I want to study Korean and Japanese and your videos help me understand. I recently watched the podcast with you and i can say I'm so thankful love you so much .
Glad my videos could be of help

The way how Explorer stays in the frame is so perfect every time, bro just a whole Jojo character
Really great interviewing skills especially for one year channel

This girl from Brooklyn speaks four languages, fascinating! She's smart dude.
Esp from the US, most are monolingual, with the exceptions of immigrants who move to and educated there.
We need more of these type of videos.Your interviews are interesting and fun I also learning English from you guys and in the same time I love Korea it was very useful.Thank you!.

This kind of "how did you learn to speak Korean" questioning is super interesting. Please add this to your normal interview questions. 사랑
I didn't realize that this Swedish lady was Swedish! Her Korean accent is absolutely amazing like a native Korean.
Swedish and Korean have very similar pronunciation, especially the vowels, they’re all the same. For example, IKEA is a Swedish company and the Korean pronunciation is the same as the Swedish pronunciation: ih-kaeh-ah, compared to the English pronunciation; eye-key-ah.

Her English accent is great too.
@@brownvirtue A lot of younger swedes speak good english, they grow up watching English tv, it's taught from a very young age in school and also Swedish is one of the closest languages to English.
This is the good stuff!! Great video mate. Please keep the language learning related vids coming!!
this is my sign to start learning korean😊😊😊

Another great interview vid! Very helpful. I loved hearing the different speakers. This definitely inspires me to get back into my Korean language studies. The points I got from this-Learn Hangul first and foremost and practice practice practice with other people. And I would add a third and will explain share my thoughts on why I think it’s important….leave your native accent behind and try to pick up the appropriate accent for the language. I just spent two months in France and Spain. I learned French during a three month immersive course in France when I was a teenager (a long time ago)-my teacher was Parisian. We moved to Spain for a year right after where I learned “the King’s Spanish” complete with lisp, in school. Fast forward, my vocabulary and grammar skills are not very good now but thankfully improved after spending some time in both countries. I had to laugh when I was told my French was good (it wasn’t) but it was because my Parisian accent was almost perfect. The same with my Spanish…my accent was on point (despite having spent some time working in PR…almost completely different) although I think that my grammar and vocabulary is at a 3rd grade level. BUT everyone continued to speak to me in their native language instead of switching to English which helped me improve. As opposed to my friend who is living in France and whose French is very good, but when she speaks, she has an American accent, and people constantly switched to English (which she complains about). Go figure. Never be afraid to speak though, it’s how you learn.
have to compliment not only the entire work on these videos but the fashion style on Jerry ! every time I watch a video I'm like 'dayumm' 👏👏👏😎 !
im also in love with your style. you look sooo cool and handsome in every outfits
I been learning Korean for like 5 years and got topik 2 like 3 years ago and i never got better than that, like i feel stuck forever, even living here in Korea
Asian girls do not like black men
You are great too. I've learned English ever but I still can't speak in English.
Oh, oh, oh, oh, all five of the participants here answer very naturally in the Korean conversation, and the use of the Korean word "exclamation" stands outstanding. As advised by all five, it is recommended to try to talk to people around you after you are familiar with simple Korean alphabets and basic grammar.
this was a very helpful video thank you so much and please make more videos like this
I'm Korean living in the US since 3 months ago. I feel I need to practice more but I don't have friends to conversation. I think this is the hardest thing when learning language
Hi. We can have a languange exchange together :) I'm learning Korean as well, and I can teach you english.
I’m learning Korean and available/interested in language exchange as well!
I would love to exchange languages. I’m Native American learning 한극
2nd girl spoke so well :o
Couldn’t agree more
@@KExplorer Asian women do not like black men
You forget words because you memorize them. I ALWAYS tell my students to never memorize but learn. If you memorize things, you're bound to forget, but if you learn, it'll stick with you
What exactly is the difference?
@@Queenofeverything357I'd say it's the same as how babies learn. They're exposing/exposed to a specific language where words are usually repeated in different contexts etc. So it literally sticks in your brain rather than trying to memorise a specific word and it's meaning coz that's almost impossible since one word might be used in different ways and might change meanings
@@mamapiglet7191 okay thank yoy
@@mamapiglet7191 very true through my studies everything i conceptualize in my heard versus trying to translate the literal meaning to english sticks much better. I learned the word for bag by picturing it in my head and physically pointing towards my bag. I feel like even if I get dementia I will remember how to say bag lol
OMG!!! I’m from Brooklyn & its so lovely to see someone from there in your video!!
I’m so glad many people try learning to Korean
thank you for the interview!
I wanna see more from Swedish girl, she was so inspirational~
Dang that swedish girl killed it with her korean.
Yup, she sound American though when talking in English….
@@paulocoreas5171 that's how most European youngsters sound when they speak English ( unless they are French lmao)

I’ve been self-learning for about 3 years now. I have to admit the best way to learn is immersion but unfortunately my native Korean friend makes fun of me when I try to speak to her in Korean 😂😂. Guess I’ll have to try Maum
Hello, I’m Korean. This video is also useful for people learning English! Thanks 😊
Useful info, as always 👍

Bro you really got a great style!! YOU LOOK SO COOL
It`s a hugh pleasure to see people who are ones of the Global and do want to know something new. Languages give you new opportunities and make your internal world richer.
K explorer is one of the most proffessional youtubers i've ever seen
Incredible! Absolutely incredibly done by all these people!
That Swede’s aegyo is off the charts! Her aptitude for learning languages is astonishing.
Hey love the vids man! I just realized we crossed paths twice in one day! One at Namsan and the other at Banpo. I was the only Black guy in the crowd! Keep up the awesome vids!
I am so getting this app! I feel like I’ll never be fluent but these guests give me hope that my skills can improve with consistency
Which app?
Maum, it’s the app in the video and wrote a comment about it @@raselislam140
한국어를 배워주셔서 감사합니다❤
love your channel Jerry, planning to move in Korea in 6-7 months, would be cool to meet you in real life :D
also the outfit in every video is 🔥

Started learning korean a couple of months back...don’t think I know enough vocabulary to dive into conversations like that Swedish girl said 😢...but it seems to work so well...maybe I should find some korean friends & start practicing despite my basic level
Omg the swedish girl❤❤ she really inspired me just now to start learning Korean! Im also swedish and I thought it would be so hard and take a so long time to rly learn it but it sounds so good when she speaks it
Its always good to learn a new language~~ lets try everybody~
Wow! You speak Korean very well. Everyone's pronunciation is so good. If I listen to this video without looking at it, I think you will think that you are Korean. Thank you for studying Korean
으아~~ 한국어 정말 잘 하시네..
Listening to this video (when people spoke on the phone with a native) I was surprised that people really speak with those short sentences that I already know that were in my Korean schoolbook! I really am surprised that I could understand what they said!
This is so interesting.
Wow they are pretty good~
They all did well👍🏽👍🏽
I think Korean is one of the hardest languages to learn, especially for western people. So I really respect those who speak Korean. Also, I think it is a big merci that Korean is my first language.
Korean is far easier for western people to learn compared to Chinese and Japanese, not only speaking but learning to write/read is exponentially easier
@@UgandanKnucklez Glad to hear that :)
@@potatochip-8 could be considered harder considering the vast amount of vocabulary Korean has compared to most other languages including Mandarin. I definitely wouldn't say it was an easy language for westerners to learn, only that there are more resources to take advantage of and a stronger will to learn. It's hard 😅
me personally i'm fluent in english but i find korean infinitely easier than german, for example. the pronunciation is quite simple and clear, even when it is spoken fast. the grammar can be tricky but overall, it is not a hard language, to me at least!
@@skyeisdead I've heard from other polyglots that German is one of the hardest languages they have learned. I'm not surprised you are struggling.
As someone who studied other Asian languages like Thai and Mandarin, Korean is very hard and the fact it has over a million words is just icing.
I hope I am fluent one day though. I commend you for that.
I’m so inspired
Omg i saw the tattoo girl’s tiktok about studying abroad!
Her Korean intonation is perfect.
Wow that swedish girl is amazing.. would love to get to that level !
As more I watch these interviews as more I watching it not because it's interesting, but the interviewer is so good looking stylish and good-mannered.
god this guy's voice is so soothing
두번째분 한국사람같은 발음이네요 😊
This has really motivated me. time to go study haha,,, thankyou!
I am like the First Lady. I memorized words but when I need to talk Korean I can’t remember…I need more practice.
can we talk about how cool his style is..
BRUH im from Portland Oregon, hearing the dude from Grants Pass threw me for one for real lol
Let me download this app!
Yup, the Swedish lady definitely embraced the language. Her pronunciation is about as close as it gets to native-like speaking.
Swedish and Korean have very similar pronunciation, especially the vowels, they’re all the same. For example, IKEA is a Swedish company and the Korean pronunciation is the same as the Swedish pronunciation: ih-kaeh-ah, compared to the English pronunciation; eye-key-ah. I’m Swedish and I’ve been told I have a very fluent pronunciation as well, despite not yet being fluent in terms of grammar and vocabulary.
Somebody need to ask that black interviewer how he himself learned to speak Korean so well and what made him want to move to that country in the first place.
Brooklyn NY!!! REPRESENT!!!
hey, really liking ur videos, appreciate u keep the chanel on and cover such various topics in interviews
can u please make a video on topic of what korean girls think on guys with mustache/beard/bristle?
Damn…I needa learn
Omg the fit of the American girl at 8:57 is soooo good
Love my Brooklyn sis
The Swedish woman Korean wasn’t better, worst, or more spot on than the any of the other Koreans speakers in this video.
5:12 that's really impressive, she sounds like a really fluent speaker, almost native
@8:58 Her tats are gorge.. i have never seen such a beautiful and delicate tat with twigs, butterflies and roses before in b/w.
Is there a video where we learn about you? How you came to Korea and learnt korean ❤❤❤❤😊
Swedish and korean have similar pronunciation so im not surprised shes super good❤
If I can I’d love to see the video how to find job in Korea as a foreigner.
The interviewer is absolutely gorgeous, he looks exactly the way Michael Jackson did before surgery in the 70's.
I was totally impressed when the Swedish girl started speaking Korean, her pronunciation is very good for a foreign speaker. I'm currently learning Korean and I really envy her speaking skills, because I get so nervous every time I'm talking to natives.
Subarashi!!
Certainly I respect them equally for learn different languages!!❤❤❤❤
Everyone should esp the Us if we are supposed to be United lol
Nihon suki suki!!
Ganbare!!
pronunciation awesome..
모두 한국말 잘한다ㅎㅎ👍👍
I don't want to learn korean or go to korea, I barely listen k-pop, sometimes I watching dramas, but I like to watch these interviews...
I love kdramas but don't see myself learning this language. I want to learn Spanosh and Mandarin for opportunities. S. Korea is very small compared to where Spanish and Mandarin can take you.
Swedish work said she started speaking to natives right away… as someone who lives in America and no natives around… is there like an app or something audio based where u can communicate with those in Korea?
Look at the description of the video ;)
interesting, am a Nigerian and i have interest in learning Korean so much dont know if it will be easy for me as well,though am beginning to pick one or two in Korea
와우... 스웨덴 여성분 눈 감고 들으면 원어민인줄 알듯. 발음도 정확한데, 무엇보다 젊은 친구들이 현실에서 쓰는 표현을 자연스러운 억양으로 말하는 게 대단함. 본인을 한국 문화와 사람 한 가운데 둔 게 팁이라면 팁인듯. 무엇보다 언어적 재능이 출중하신듯.
omg the second girl was by far the absolute best in her korean holy shit🤯🤯🤯🤯🤯
What i find amazing is that her English is tonal or more musical. I'm not sure if she spoke that way before. I notice this with many of my Asian friends speaking English.
스웨덴분은 진짜 한국인 같다 말하는게
my guy, you are very stylish
Impressive! Learning a language is challenging and Korean is way harder
I thought the Swedish girl was Korean when i was just only listening to her talkin 💀💀 perfect pronunciation and intonation of typical 20s females, natural expressions, overall crazy
People always say talking to natives is better to learn languages but I honestly disagree, I became fluent in english without talking to anyone in english, I just read and wrote stories online and became fluent in about 4 to 5 months.
한국말 찰지게 잘 하시네요
The first girl is speaking English with a Korean inflection, does anyone else hear it!?
8:57 this girl is cool af!
Korean is a very difficult language to speak for a native English speaker, although hangul is easy to learn. Previously , I studied French,German, Spanish, and Russian. Fluent in French and can understand a reasonable amount of other languages. In Korean, though? I work as a teacher and I've been in Korean for a year and a half, but can still only somewhat understand my lowest level students who speak Korean to me(although I'm American),b/c they know maybe 20-40 words in English. To learn faster, my Korean friend advised me to get a Korean boyfriend, so I have to speak Korean and learn quicker.And that's proven to be right, because when I speak English, my native language, I tend to speak very quickly and Koreans can't understand.
The latest complaint though? The English native teacher can understand Korean and is reacting to students so they keep speaking Korean. Native Teachers are told to never let on if we know Korean and can understand, so play it off usually if students catch on.
I think your can be 5+years in Korea and still not fluent in Korean due to the complexity
