an honest vlog of my life in seoul, korea

[@caricakes]

Some people said they didn't get the noti or see this video at all on their home screen so if you missed my last video and are interested in Korean film and history, please check it out! kzbin.info/www/bejne/pXeUoqVrqap2qZI

[@jarjargreens]

cari cakes I didn’t get a notification for it but now that I know it’s a thing I’m so excited to check it out!✨

[@busetgadapet]

I always got your notification just fine, maybe other people set the notification setting wrong,

[@karenkingrey6142]

cari cakes that was a great video too! Hopefully those who missed it can go watch. I found it quite interesting!!

[@youandwhatarmy635]

I think most of us can agree: even if people come to your channel to see Seoul or another city, they stay for the cool storytelling and your personality 😊💕

[@caricakes]

thank you always ㅠㅠ

[@potatoesandchocolate]

YES

[@tamsinfrostmusic]

Cari's personality is one of the ,most genuine on youtube, it's always like hanging out with a best friend 💖✨

[@lw1705]

I think that we can all agree on saying that that is just a fact

[@xxx0753]

Cari! We're not just here for "pretty things happening in Seoul" (it's honestly just an added bonus), we're here for you! xx

The "Say No to Kids, Drugs" T-shirt made me laugh harder than it should have, lol

I didnt even realize the words were switched until i took the vid 😂😂😂

[@mackenzieskipper6977]

Yeah I really want that tee haha

[@whostolethechocolate]

I saw that one when I was in Hongdae and I had to find real inner strength to not buy it xD

[@hanagrace9045]

May Cat same! I was there a few weeks ago, stayed in Hongdae and saw it everyday. I have regrets!

[@erika4971]

Okay, I don't know why I feel the need to write you this mini essay, but here we go. We watch your content because we enjoy not only Seoul but you and your life! There are tons of travel vlogs out there where I could see very cinematic shots of fancy shops and Korean life. What you bring to this channel is your own story and individuality. I love seeing your videos and feeling like a friend is hanging out, updating me on her life which just also happens to be somewhere gorgeous. Secondly, don't feel apologetic for your content. Notice I didn't say "stop apologizing". I said don't feel sorry! I think we all feel lucky for the content you deliver. If you aren't living up to your own expectations, that's one thing - but know that your audience loves what you put out. That's why we're here week after week. The only pressure to deliver is the pressure you're putting on you, so be kind to yourself. 💖 And thirdly, I want to say that your channel is so inspiring to me that it's made me want to start my own. I've definitely felt before like my life is too boring for a vlog, but the enjoyment I get out of just watching you go get coffee at a cafe completely changed my mind. You helped me realize that if content is genuine and the creator is enjoying the creation, then what's there to be afraid of? What more do I need? When I do start my channel, it'll be under a completely different username (I want to be sure it's pretty anonymous in terms of my real name), but know that it's because of the content you make that it's even happening for me at all. I hope that helps you to feel better. Crossing my fingers for you that next week is a much better week. 🙌🏻

[@caricakes]

oh my goodness thank you so much for this truly!! good luck with your creative journey too!!!

[@amitamsalem]

cari cakes I couldn’t describe it better. Nonetheless, you have made me gain my confidence back. I have watched how you enjoy the little things and how much happiness you get from them. You shared your own story and it made me realize that there is nothing wrong with my life. And there is no reason I should be like these fancy people that we see online nonstop! I started loving my life when I saw there is someone who enjoys the same things as I do and doesn’t feel guilty about it. Please keep it up and never change for others. 💕

[@badetgb1446]

I am crying over this comment. 😭

[@mariarentrop2970]

THIS! I relate so much to your last paragraph! I'm a content creator for my city. I work for the city I live in and my job is to attend city events and make videos about said events. I LOVE LOVE to watch your videos to get inspiration and she just put it into words for me! You REALLY have helped me realize that if my content is genuine my video quality is increased! I also love your attention to details too! Like the shadows the leaves make or the cute things you notice around town. It's very honest and I'm in love! Thank you! (also are you a capricorn cause i totally hear you being a capricorn towards the end lol) Dont be too hard on yourself you're awesome!

[@its_taz6717]

This is very true 🤗💕 love your videos cari don't think otherwise. Also Erika yes give it a try. I'll be the first person to watch, give it a go!!

[@cinemoni]

"you don't have time to be messing with cults" i don't know why this made me laugh so much 😂💕

[@caricakes]

i only speak the truth hahahha

[@sarah.arduo.]

you're not alone, this is a universal thing going on! we all have been grumpy for the past 2 weeks due to certain energies clearing up. i personally have been mad about every single damn thing lmao. luckily i can watch your videos and get instantly relaxed. your videos are incredably grounding that i can forget abt the crazy waves happening in my life now. knowing that you've been experiencing the same thing, i hope you have your own person/activity that calms you down the way your videos therapeutically heals us your viewers. just want you to know that you're doing well even if that's hard to accept internally. we love you sm cari! thanks for putting up contents that feed our soul! 💜💜🙏🏻🙏🏻

[@caricakes]

thank you so much! im truly feeling so much better and just getting all that out there really helped :) hope your wave passes too!

[@kathryngleaves5618]

The music during the cleaning was PERFECT. Also, been a rough couple weeks for me too (like you, it doesn't feel like there's a good enough reason, but whateves I guess!), Good things coming! We've got this!

[@caricakes]

bahaha it was actually halloween music! and we DO got this!!!

[@apricotbleus]

Cari💕 we obviously have no idea what bigger and better visions you have for your channel but every single video you put out we always look forward to and finish watching it in the loveliest mood. You offer such different vibes and color schemes (색감) please don’t worry about your vids having the same content because even if you take us to a cafe again it’s such a new and prettier experience for those of us who are not there. The way you show your perspective and storytelling is always so phenomenal as well! You’re the center of it all, not just pretty and exciting things in Seoul🌿☺️ Life before big planned events seems stagnant in comparison to those great plans you have ahead, ONLY in comparison. Nothing more, nothing less than usual but relatively to what you have coming up it will definitely make you feel like it’s stagnant (we’re being fooled😭😭 constantly there myself) hope you overcome it all eventually🥳💜 and please by all means do put your personal life ahead of everything~ Look forward to everything coming up, it’s good to know that you’re not the type of person to fake things for the camera so please enjoy it all very naturally and make us part of your journey when you feel like it!

[@caricakes]

Omg this is seriously the kindest comment thank you so much!

[@hanagrace9045]

Agree. Agree. Agree verbatim =)

[@reeesad7129]

This might be weird but your voice is so relaxing 😂😊 your videos are so great when I’m doing homework or studying 💕

Hahaha im glad 😂

[@isabaltazar322]

Your vlogs puts me in a relaxing state. ❤️

[@caricakes]

🥰🥰🥰

[@tinkier]

i feel a lot more motivated to clean/cook/read/go outside/take care of myself after i watch your vlogs so this one was PERFECT. also loved the cleaning bit, the soundtrack was fabulous. i think i can relate to the feeling overwhelmed and burnt out at the same time. i'm getting ready to graduate and go to california (san diego!!!!!), so i have periods of, like, mania and restlessness. being excited is exhausting! but time doesn't move backward and we love you and your content and support you no matter how you're feeling

[@caricakes]

gah im glad!! my vlogs inspire me to clean more too cause i see how i have to angle my camera to hide the crap in my house hahahah

Watching your vlogs on Sunday mornings is such a treat 🥰

[@caricakes]

^_^~ thank you!

[@gracealice7288]

You just give off a sunshine vibe and I absolutely love it. You just seem like a genuinely kind person and I guess genuine person, like what you see is what you get which I don’t always feel with youtubers. Basically you seem super cool and I wanna be friends with someone like you

[@kaylarssage]

from someone who also had a horrible week, nothing is always just one thing forever, it's a constant wave of ever changing. "life in seoul" includes everything; the adventures, the travels, the cafes, the movies, and the basic stuff like cleaning your house, doing laundry, and washing the dishes because those are life things no matter how entertaining or boring they seem. i appreciate your traveling vlogs but i also appreciate your more toned down videos of just going to a cafe, walking around a bit, and going home because i can relate to those more. life and content don't always need to be exciting, enjoy the rainy days 💕✨

[@3109x]

Thank you for your little chats. The fact that you open up when life is less than perfect. With social media and youtube it's nice to take a break and be like "We're all people with bad days and good days and good moments in bad days and bad moments in good days" and whenever you open up a discussion about more negative feelings, it feels like theres now a whole community of people all going "oh thank god yea". it feels friendly and chill. You show us so much more than cafes and you've created a family on here of nice people just going through life and making happy moments.

[@Politodarkangel]

Girl, I get how you feel and I love when you speak to us and you feel the need to get something out of your chest. Life in Seoul - Korea through your eyes it's also life through you, you're doing great even when you feel like you ain't.

[@caricakes]

thank you so much :')

[@merihirvonen527]

i found your channel through searching for seoul vlogs but i've honestly loved all of your videos so far, i even binge watched some older ones because your content is so beautiful and relaxing no matter where in the world you are

[@caricakes]

wahhh that makes me so happy!!

[@gracee98]

That was EXACTLY how I felt about my week, last week. When you said something about feeling melancholy or discontent in that time leading up to some bigger life events... that's exactly where I am at. It's comforting knowing you aren't alone in that.

[@freddidavis7102]

Loved your comment “I’m glad my hair is a beacon to the world to find me” .... my thought, ....probably not when you’re in Scotland, Can’t wait for that vlog! ❤️

[@caricakes]

hehehe i cant wait to blend into the crowd!!

[@yes_life_in_peace]

Stay motivated Cari! I really like your vlog and you inspire a lot of people. You inspire me in a sense that there so much to see in the world. Flip the next chapters of life and make the most out of it. I appreciate the honesty and "stuff like that". Ive been asking my co workers to subscribe on your channel. Love lots! 💜

[@caricakes]

gah!!! thank you so much!

[@chelseybrooke1]

I’ve always loved your videos 💕 I love the glimpses of Seoul you give us and you go to the neatest little cafes! That little hand kiss at the end with the ew was so funny lol

[@caricakes]

bahaha i had no idea what i was doing the hand kiss came out of nowhere! and thank you!!

[@focus_gently]

Stop overthinking it. I find your vlogs SO beautifully and well made! Your content isn't just "fine" your content is great! You're doing great! Don't be too hard on yourself. I watch you because I love Seoul I lived there for 3 years and I find that your vlogs perfectly show the atmosphere of this city. Also, I just like your personality. So keep doing what you do. Good luck with your upcoming trips, looking forward to all the vlogs from Tokyo and Schotland and maybe a few from Seoul before that :)

[@caricakes]

thank you so so much!!!!

[@ErinNotKelly]

I love that when you advertise your “life in Seoul”, that’s exactly what you deliver! So many of us have this romanticized vision of other cities we don’t live in, when the reality is, emotions are going to fluctuate no matter where you live, and you capture this so perfectly. Thank you for being REAL.

[@jujugarcianyc]

Thank you so much for showing us around a normal day in the city AND for letting us into your inner world a bit.

[@lizwentbigtime]

Didn’t watch until now, but you literally ALWAYS say things I need to hear and I’m glad that someone else gets the “I’m in a mood, and I’m going to feel that way so let it naturally subside” and also I agree about feeling like you’re in a funk when you know there’s great opportunities coming up! It’s that weird blank space that’s not filled that makes you just feel that sense of nothingness and unaccomplishment if that makes sense... but I feel you and I’m glad you share it and I’m glad I always seem to watch your videos when I need them most 💕

[@aubreydanae3637]

Hi Cari! I randomly came across your channel about two weeks ago and you quickly became one of my favorite content creators, if not my fave! Your videos are always so calming yet make me want to get up and go explore, and I kept finding myself being like "ahh!! she likes that too?! woah I feel like that too!!" and all of that good stuff haha A funny coincidence I realized after binging your old content (was definitely having a wompity womp week - thank you for saving my sanity as I was stuck home sick) is that we have the same three signs (our sun and ascending our swapped) and we're both INFJs! I thought it was so funny and even though I don't buy into those things too much, I still thought it was pretty interesting and wanted to share :) I hope next week is better for you and thanks for always being so authentic xo

[@caricakes]

thank you and omg my soul mate!! hope your next week is better than this one too!!

[@Riksv1]

your vlogs are truly my favorite thing to watch - i relax and always grab a cup of something and enjoy it to the fullest. thank you cari!

[@haru-gk3lc]

no, your vlog is the most i've wait every weeks ! that make me always thinking in my mind, oh my god i should visit seoul very soon :") this is too beautiful.

[@caricakes]

thank you so much!!

[@KatrinaSGarzaOfficial]

I just found your channel and I have already watched 4 videos it’s so inspiring to watch you live in Korea I love every little thing and min you show! You have a lot of personality and don’t feel bad for feeling the way you do everyone feels that way every now and then but I personally love your content so thank you!

[@kathleengibson81]

No apology needed! Love watching your vlogs and honestly felt a sigh of relief when you started your mini therapy session at the end because I was feeling the same way recently! So good to know I'm not alone! Totally got the fever break analogy too... that makes so much sense and you're right! Hope things are going a little more according to plan for you now but we can both try and appreciate those little bumps and dips along the way too! Have a great week!!

[@nataschasongbird]

I‘m pretty sure most of us (including me) are here because of YOU!! No matter what you are exploring or what your vlog is called, I‘m here because I love these (little) talks and it actually feels like you said....someone is out there getting me :) And I‘m so thankful for that❤️

[@MiamEggTart]

I totally get you! 100% have those down moments where I feel that I can do so much better and live better. I think sometimes we just need to remind ourselves how fortunate we are and appreciate the journey. Love your videos! :)

So happy to have found your channel - your videos have a nice personal touch and I love how you capture all the little things throughout your day. I’m Korean but haven’t really lived here long so thanks to your content I’ve discovered a lot of new cool places in Seoul to explore :) But just as other people have mentioned I think it’s your personality that makes your videos really approachable and fun to watch - looking forward to more videos and hope you have fun on your trips ahead!

[@caricakes]

thank you so much!!! i love that everyone has a different "seoul" :)

[@nbnugget]

Thanks for this video! And know that 1)don't worry we can't hear your a.c.; and 2) it's great to hear someone honestly recount the irritations of life and have the perspective to understand that for most of us the worst day is still something to be thankful for. But it still helps to vent and laugh!!!

[@nembutsu1045]

ok i might be late but still: as far as i understand you feel like a normal day with you visiting a cafe is boring. I personally really enjoy it, it's just another day and all these cafés look so comfy and the music fits and all these random shots of the sky and the trees and all the items in a store are so nice to watch. idk I couldn't really mention many other vloggers that upload videos like this that feel so genuine(as you said, when you smile you are indeed happy). also you look beautiful and your voice is really nice. not to be weird but there are certain people in this world that have a good/comfortable voice to listen to and you're one of them. upload what you're fine with but please remember that even your "boring" videos are still interesting to watch

Cari you don’t sound whiny. And I like it when your blogs are super long. I actually prefer you rambling in front of the camera than actually going out and doing things. I just enjoy your personality and being real with us like you have been it’s so refreshing. I don’t know maybe I’m the only one who feels that way. But I definitely agree with whoever said they enjoy watching you do mundane things. I loved watching you clean your shower wtf lmao

[@SweetnessByCandy]

i definitely feel what you were trying to say. i am starting my internship abroad next week which i’m so! excited about yet the last week and a half i’ve been feeling down and like i’m just waiting for this limbo some to pass. it’s weird idk. definitely thought i was alone in this tho so thanks for sharing

[@someoneyoumightknow2795]

Honestly everytime I come to Seoul I just appreciate the people I love around me more than usual And when I see you talking about kurt and friends, makes me think about it

[@thisis_a]

oh my god your color grading and shots tho *chef’s kiss*

[@DankaOliveira]

hey Cari, I loved this vlog! I just wanna say I feel you. As a growing artist/illustrator posting on social media I can relate on the point of "am I making effort to grow or try or even change things?". I always try to think like that cheesy saying that says "some flowers don't bloom all year long". But at the same time, I try to put things out there for consistency, then taking a week off or experimenting. So I think I'm giving nice new leafs and shading them, and that can be pretty too (: But I really came to tell you that I can see a difference since you started part-timing. Lots new videos, that made me really happy to see you not worrying so much bc of managing time and working (even with the hectic part you said~ I see that you're real and life happens, so it's not a plastic vlog/video every time), and also because no matter what you did - from being in pretty places to cleaning your bathroom - I think what makes all nice is your point of view, not what's cute. Sometimes what's cute is you talking about a nice coffee shop owner even if it's rainy, humid or polluted. Or trying to explain what a pattern of a shirt reminds you of. Or talking for a long time about how a sad book made you feel that month. For sure some things are more "entertaining" but I always enjoy the sincerity the most. And I think most people here agree (:

[@caricakes]

wahhhh im so glad you understand!! and thank you so much truly!!!

[@clarissagibson9043]

I don't like how people will throw the word aesthetic around these days like it's nothing--but your vlogs are the epitome of the aesthetic I love. I could watch an hour of you filming the sky and I'd be so happy with it I think. Thank you!

All your videos are great content, no matter where you are or what your up to. Nobody is feeling great every second of every day. It's good that you are actually honest about it and not editing an unrealistic world for us to see. It makes everyone feel good about their own realities and not have unrealistic expectations of themselves.

You are making great content that is really enjoyable, no matter what you do and your personality always brightens up my day.

What funny timing I've felt so low just the past two days and it doesn't feel like it's about much. I'm a teacher and it's the summer holidays which feel so so long. There are also some changes that are happening in life as well. I was meant to meet a friend for drinks Friday night in central London and it was raining and the tourists were everywhere driving me nuts and the first place we went to didn't work and then I ended up going to to this overpriced not that nice Chinese restaurant with my boyfriend and everything just seemed crappy. It's funny how we can just let things pile up especially if we're not in a great mood to begin with. Something we need to wipe the slate clean I think, trying to do that this weekend by doing a proper tidy of my room. Good luck to you too xx

[@caricakes]

agreed about wiping that slate! i feel like a lot of my antsy-ness comes from not having anything to work on at that moment so i get bored and worried about doing something productive ㅠㅠ i really need to work on that haha

[@Kyle-yv8il]

This one is long!!! Twice happier while wathing Cari’s video💓 Love your sight of Korea, I find it so interesting😍 더위조심하세요! And recommend 파주 헤이리마을 I went there today‼️ Love you from korea♥️

[@eduardoacostagarcia5996]

[@caricakes]

thank you!!

[@ammyvas]

I love that you like the little things, the hidden details...

[@rosel2366]

Hey Cari, it’s totally normal to feel that way, I’ve been feeling that way too and it’s fine! sending you tons and tons of hugs! Your vlogs always make me feel better they’re so soothing and relaxing! 💜😘🥰

[@caricakes]

thank you so much! hope we both get better at feeling better!

I just randomly came across your channel and at first, I wasn't really planning to stay, but here I am, after watching almost every from your videos. Your aesthetic just grabbed my heart, and now this. I totally feel you. I'm on the 2nd year of Uni, trying to stay productive, have good grades, get a part-time job to be able to later apply for exchange, meet with friends and I'm just getting tired of my life and my plans. At the same time, I can't stop dreaming and thinking about the "bright" future that I planned for myself. I'm watching your vlogs from Seoul and missing being here, even tho I never been to Asia. This comment getting pretty long and chaotic, but I just wanted to say that I appreciate every little thing you sharing on your channel. It makes me keep dreaming, even if I'm in the 'down' time of my journey on this planet. I hope more happy days will come if I will work hard. Hope you have a nice day and good coffee to enjoy it even more ¬Jul

[@IchigoNoShoujo]

I could watch videos of cafes, funny t-shirts, views from buses, fast clouds, wind in the trees... every day. Your editing is beautiful, your videos are calm and relaxing, and they show a very personal but also very real side of Seoul. I feel you when it comes to expectations and always trying to do more and better things, but sometimes we have to slow down. And if we don't, the universe does (I just had a similar day to yours last week lol). Thank you for all you're doing, and have fun during your upcoming trips! :)

[@_bmee]

oh,hope u feeling much better now. it's ok to feel that way, life can b pretty stagnant sometimes. look forward for your future video - whatever the content is. the thing bout your channel , it's not bout enjoying the seoul cafe / scenery but the way you edit it . i love the editing! & music of coz. therefore whatever the content is, will always look forward to it!!!

[@juk0915]

thank you for always uploading and being an honest person!! i’ve been feeling stagnant too and i felt like the only one in the world feeling like that, but it’s nice to know i wasn’t.

[@caricakes]

thank you so much! and yeah, feeling stuck is the worst but it has to fade eventually!!

[@YY-tr1pb]

I'm one of those 'i got u girl' dear cari! and actually, (i can feel you rolling your eyes to this but again) i think most of us prefer and are happy about the fact that your videos shows the reality of the much awed life in seoul korea aaannddd im telling you this, the realistic aesthetics of your vids are better than those 'too filtered' ones that are usually shown. So, as for this yt being your therapy sesh, girl com'on it is for us as it is for you so don't feel awful hehehehe loveya!

[@user-kz5pr8ej8h]

YAY, I literally jumped for joy when I saw that we get 20 mins of Cari Goodness!!

[@caricakes]

Gahhhh more like 12 of cari goodness, 8 of cari rambles hahah

[@erikag7009]

I really enjoy your blog because you show so much different spots from Seoul, it's really nice places, arty spot and it's change from the other youtuber! Good job!

[@caricakes]

im so glad! thank you~

[@sabrinawelge9798]

You are very genuine and creative in presenting your perspective to the world. It comes across as fun, interesting but laid back. Your personal touch is appreciated! The juxtaposition of the mundane and the exciting is always heightened when you are looking forward to something. I totally experience that. 💜🖤

[@caricakes]

thank you 💜💜💜

[@alexandracampos4950]

I really enjoy the little glimpses of Korea we get from your vlogs and the history you pack behind a lot of your day trip/ trip vlogs, but what really hooked me to your videos and your content is your personality. I can't wait to see what big things you have planned for this channel, and in the meantime, these vlogs are great, too! p.s. wow I was also having a crap week - it felt like mercury was still in retrograde and that was not fun lol

[@dinakhistina9307]

Tbh your videos make me feel so calm.

[@maialllllllllllll23456]

Love this a lot!!! One of my favourite vlogs of your channel and I really love them all! Ps. I get you girl! ♥️✨

[@caricakes]

gah thank you so much!

[@user-ne7vu1zw8r]

I get u when u said you've been hving an up down week. im getting my results on Thursday and I am literally dreading it. sometimes im happy and then sometimes im sad, nervous, angry. I totally get u cari. LOTS OF LOVE AND SUPPORT FROM THE UK!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[@kldr6057]

love your content so much, the music you choose creates a soft, warm vibe, it makes me feel so calm and happy every time^^ thankyouthankyou ~

[@caricakes]

im so glad!! thank you!!

[@DreamChasr]

Girl, I feel you here. I’m in a similar boat of looking forward and seeing good, concrete things coming my way but I haven’t been able to shake the in-the-moment almost trapped/stuck in a rut feeling. Its even more frustrating to be able to take a step back from yourself and go “hey friend, hey emotions, you’re being stupid” and be not quite able to change it yet. It is nice to hear from you though and see down in the comments that thats not just a me thing. Baby steps!

[@laurent4877]

I love the coloring/filter you used on this video, Cari, if you used one at all ! :o Your vlogs remind me of the little things I loved about Seoul and I'm happy to get to see it through your videos! :-) Keep up the great work!

[@liula540]

Cari, I totally get you! Like you, I have weeks, maybe days of the “roller coaster” life. I’m so glad you put your marriage first before us (you tube subscribers)! Your videos inspire me to see and appreciate the beauty, uniqueness and weirdness of my city. So Mahalo nui. Have a blessed week.

[@d.k.6361]

Always love your channel, and view it as soon as I see the notification. Your vlog content is YOU!! which is what makes it so enjoyable. No need to feel disappointed. Enjoy Japan, and have a safe and happy trip.

[@caricakes]

you are so kind THANKYOUUU!

[@d.k.6361]

I understand what you are feeling. When others compliment my artwork, I usually feel inside that it is really mediocre and not all that original in its creation, and could be better. Maybe that's just part of an artistic leaning and helps us to keep reaching higher. Love and admire all of your efforts, Carrie. You go ahead and keep reaching higher!

[@dianala2538]

Dear Cari, I love your content, not only because it‘s about Seoul, but because of your way of showing it to us. It always seems so artistic, not like other regular vlogs. Your personality that has an eye for the little wonders & curiosities surrounding you makes the difference! 😊

[@caricakes]

Thank you so much 🙈

[@21grvms]

Came across your channel while doing my research of places to visit in seoul. I just love your vlog and the soundtrack. Keep posting!

[@caricakes]

thank you so much!!

[@gabbynina5813]

Your fans love your videos and even if you feel they’re too simple or mundane honestly they are lovely and we love them. Even if your videos aren’t what you consider super interesting your viewers do. I think your awesome you go to cafes and travel by yourself. I also think your sit down chats are part of your appeal. I think your videos are calming and although it’s cool that your in Korea I enjoy your presence/personality more than the location.
