Jeju is amazing

[@amc3]

This brings back many happy memories for me, visited Jeju October 2022 to visit family from Scotland UK. My son moved to Korea 9 years ago to teach English and never came home. He now lives in Jeju with his lovely Korea wife and my young Grandson who is one year old. Heading back April 2023, cant wait. I love Korea, the culture, it`s amazing food, but most of all the inspiring and amazing people.

[@yasminanuar9768]

I am missing Jeju a lot! Thanks for the video! Will definitely come visit again once this whole pandemic thingy is over.

[@floresj183]

One day I will get to visit Jeju-do!!! Our $jejudoge coin will get us there!!! 💪💪💪💪

[@NangNangEE]

Very well presented! I will check ur Rice University next. So nice to see Texan! Ohh, I'm Korean 형. ^^ 반가워요~

[@Elena-kw2wg]

I am traveling to Korea, and I have watched a lot of videos but yours is the only one that gave me a reason to say wow I want to go there. This is a good vlog. Thanks for sharing

[@exploringwithyulia9300]

Thanks for an amazing video, guys! You made me miss Korean food and want to visit Jeju even more than I’ve always wanted🤩 Stunning sunsets, by the way! Different from the Filipino ones. Can I ask you where did you rent a car? It’ll be helpful for our trip to Jeju🇰🇷❤️

[@MoonDog21]

Fun video. Not annoying or conceited like most “vloggers”. Nice family. Thanks. Made my Jeju trip a good one.

[@rashmi5341]

What's the weather like? End of October.. beginning of November?

[@islamwith_WALID]

여보세요 안녕하세요.😊 저는 방글라데시 사람입니다.🇧🇩🇰🇷

[@krya2868]

Are there no black people in Jeju island/South Korea?

[@SAFAEECH]

Nice family and such amayzing vaccation in jeju

[@comel09]

Guys, do you remember the hotel you’re staying and the car rental company? Thank you!!

[@03_JAM_09]

Can you share how much you guys spent in this 5 days tour? Roughly around how much?

[@liliatf3334]

Very good overview of Jeju for a short visit. THANK YOU! I love the way you guys covered the place, it has a little of everything!

[@sirfletch9802]

Jeju is overrated

[@hks191]

Thoroughly enjoyed your video! I was feeling so disheartened after watching the negativity from other KZbinrs and their lack of attention to the space around them. You even showed the black sand in your hand. Simple but restored my urge to go this beautiful island xx

[@marilynho9334]

Thank you for this wonderful video and all the awesome recommendations 👍🤗🙏

[@karadizon4299]

Such an informative video and great music selections. All the food and scenic are awesome. What a great family. Hope my boys grow up to be like these two boys

[@tccning]

11:41 OMG!! En El Salvador también hay una carrera con esa ilusión óptica!!

[@annd7432]

Awesome vlog! Cool music background too…curious about JeJu from Chicago. :) thanks

[@ajarnolaf9034]

cool place! saw visited Cheju island a few years ago.

[@megtiu8602]

Hi just wondering where’d you guys stay??thanks for the video..im just mapping out to finalize our trip.please reply

[@jameshwang4342]

Hi! We stayed in The Suites Hotel Jeju in Saekdal-dong, Seogwipo-si :) It was a great hotel located near lots of local attractions!

[@nat.travels]

Hi im palnning to bring my grandparents to jeju next month! Can i know was it convenient to take the bus or did yall call for a cab during your stay there? Thankyou and looking forward to your reply!❤

[@jameshwang01]

Hi! If you're planning to tour different parts of Jeju, then I would definitely recommend getting a rental car for the convenience. If you're only staying near one part of Jeju, then a cap would be more convenient than a bus! There are Korean apps where you can call cabs, similar to Uber except they are actually taxis

[@swika8534]

I am your 600th subscriber :-)

[@eunyul.]

Wow 🤩 Jeju- island🇰🇷❤️

[@happyj3417]

Nice video. Going to SK next year. I'll love to visit all the tourist places in Jeju but not the food. Im allergic to sea food. But I think there are other Korean food that do not have any fish in Jeju like the one you show named black pig dish.

[@TravelEndleslie]

Wow the food looks good. is it expensive in Jeju?

[@ozlemarslan785]

So jealous....hopefully one day i will visit Jeju Island 🥰

[@theaverageguytraveller7253]

Jejus awesome, my problem is I visited when it was boiling hot and I didn’t have a car 😂 aside from that it’s really beautiful, interesting food too.

[@smithereens7105]

What month did you go? I am thinking of going in August but scared it will be too rainy

[@fashionlover4453]

waaaa this was such a good vlog, thank you ~ I am starting to love Jeju more and more, need to visit with my fam

[@riaconradt2554]

Thanks for the recommendations for places, cafes and restaurants to visit. Jeju and Busan are the two places I really want to visit in Korea.

[@IreneYam1]

Great video and narration was fun! Thanks

[@cabaniukm5949]

how far apart are the two waterfalls you visited on the island? I only have a few days to fit jeju island on my itinerary and visiting the waterfalls is a must!

[@jameshwang01]

The main waterfalls are all located in southern Jeju! They should be around 10-15 minutes apart by car :)

[@ruanvantonder8969]

You seem to have done more in your short trip than I have in the 10 months I've lived on the island haha

[@justiceandpeace807]

There are also several falls in Japan that directly falls into the occean. For example, Kashuni Falls in Hokkaido and Toroki Falls in Kagoshima prefecture. Why is this Jeongbang Waterfall the only one in Asia that directly falls into the occean??

[@svdiakhvn]

You've sold Jeju Island to me! fun vlog guys keep it up :D

[@mulelos]

Am planning a trip soon to Jeju and Seoul from Singapore. Thanks for the itinerary! \m/

[@hello_orange]

GREAT VLOG.

[@franh8043]

Thank you for sharing your adventure!!

[@heyteacher3089]

Are there places to wash up at the beach?

[@jameshwang01]

The beaches have public showers that only cost a few dollars to use! They also sell soap and other toiletries needed to wash off

[@melissawong4125]

Thanks for the video. The views and food look amazing!

[@patricialemontagner1143]

Superbe vidéo merci en pleine découverte super👍😍😍😍

[@arpanaaravinthkumar1747]

Nice Video.. Wanted to know how did u travel around the Island? Renting a car is the good option? or public transport is good?

[@jameshwang01]

We rented a car on the island, and I would definitely recommend getting a rental car over public transportation!

[@skqq3250]

Thanks for the content. Jeju is on my bucket list after hearing it so much in my Kdramas series that I love love. Never heard of Jeju before 2019.

[@gomokuchamp]

Why didnt u take me

[@jameshwang01]

Haha maybe we do Rice jeju trip next time

[@iStorm-my5fp]

Did you rent a car? How did you get around?

[@jameshwang01]

We rented a car for our entire trip! I highly recommend renting a car, especially if you plan to visit Jeju during the summer. There are plenty of car rental companies near the airport that you can find online!

[@iStorm-my5fp]

@Life of James Hwang how much was it, when I looked on kayak I'm getting like 80/day, also lots of forums say they dislike renting to foreigners even with an international permit

[@Patdancelaw]

loved it, I want to visit ! great job !

[@marinaverbruggen7833]

Is it necessary to book a car and do you have to book one some time before the trip? or are there busses to take you to different places?

[@jameshwang01]

It's not necessary to rent a car! If you do want to rent a car, we booked our car about a month in advance. There are also various public buses available in Jeju, including city buses, tourist shuttle buses, and airport limousine buses :)

[@insasiable]

Innisfree is a restaurant? I thought it’s just a beauty products brand.

[@cathybaggott2873]

Innisfree is an island off the west coast of Ireland. Everything else is named after it. There is Innismore, Innisfree and Innisbeck.

[@heungsikyoo7336]

thanks for sharing such a great trip. how did you move from one place to another, rent a car?

[@jameshwang01]

We rented a car for the entirety of our trip!

[@ShutayTomi]

Hi. If you don’t have a car. How can you go around?

[@jameshwang01]

If you don't have a car or don't rent a car, you can get around the island by public buses or taxis!

[@collielover222]

Just beautiful 🙂

[@honeyhonesty3784]

so beautiful

[@conniec2869]

Going to Jeju this August. Going to follow most of the itinerary, thank u. Thanks Jason for the timestamps. Helps so much.

[@smithereens7105]
