Not really very Filipino culture. Most Asian cultures also have that way of thinking which becomes unhealthy when people normalize it.

[@klaudinegarcia8932]

@@thesolitarymage5995 I was just thinking about this! I'm so worried the eldest son might become one of those people that family members can depend on "too much." He might not have a life of his own if he's constantly putting his family first. And it will became his identity and self worth to putting others first before him.

[@PO-qw5ux]

It's so sad. Seems like the mom finally brought her eldest son to Korea because her husband was getting old and sick and wasn't able to do the farm job, so they needed a helping hand of somebody older than her younger kids. Younger siblings seem to be very distant from mother's side of the family. I hope that Earl John will succeed in the future and didn't end up being a Cinderella brother working hard to make youngsters be able to go to college. From what I read form the comments, it appears to be very Filipino thing to do.

[@klaudinegarcia8932]

I hope he doesn't become the cinderella brother! 😣 On surface level it all sounds nice and lovely but, it's actually toxic depending too much on one family member and making him/her the "responsible" sibling.

[@lhiz9786]

FYI, Matatanda or middle aged na Babae po ang mostly nagwo-work sa farm sa Korea po. Also, Korean men and women are independent and earn a living on their own to support themselves to college if they decided to go to college. If not, they work po to support themselves and the family. Bibihira po and tamad sa mga Koreans. Young kids only help with farming on their free time or vacation time. Kaya mas higher chance an young Nanay nya and nagwo-work sa farm with the father for many years. Nagha hire din po yan sila ng mga farm workers po

I feel so bad for this kid to have lived alone all that time while his mother started a new family. I don’t understand how she could have more kids and leave her oldest son on Philippines. He is a good kid and I pray his life gets easier and he is happy. He needs to take care of his education first then worry about the others.

I agree with you in part but we do not know if her husband was keen with him living with them. Maybe, due to his grandpa not being present, he stayed so that his grandma would not be alone. He is definitely used as a gap filler either way.

[@creed4308]

I really feel sad that it seems like the mom brought her son to Korea because the adults in the family are getting old. I’m Filipino and this is one of our toxic traits, most (usually in poorer households) of the time Filipino parents see their kids as investments that would pull them out of poverty. I wish the best for Earl John, he really deserves success.

[@ampa4989]

Maybe she wanted to but couldn't bring him until her husband grew frail and needed help. It looks kind of like the eldest is working more than his fair share, but he's an adult and decided opportunities are better in Korea. I hope he becomes a very successful electrical engineer. His mom will be so proud of him too.

[@loufe2102]

That kid should go to school.. He should just go home to the Phil and study.. He is just being taken advantage.. Free slave work...

[@Justsheesh-rm6zr]

This is actually true. Some of the Filipino parents, especially the elders think of their child as investment. But I think it's just how they were raised by their parents. My parents would always say that me and my siblings are their investment. At first I hated listening to them with regards to this thing. But I realize that my parents didn't mean that they will ask for money from us to splurge, but they just want their children to care for them when they are older. But still it's kind of toxic.

[@jaminhoney9379]

respect to him for being a good son and sibling but it rubs me the wrong way that his mom basically abandoned him and started a new family and he ends up being the one wanting to provide for the family she created... im filo, i get that this is the norm, being abandoned by a parent while they work oversea but in his case it wasnt so they can live a better life. i know family is everthing in our culture but its also irresponsible to have kids you cannot provide for and to have more kids while you already have a child waiting for you. Seriously majority of his life he was raised by his grandma so she cant take any credit for how good of a son he is.

I was looking for these comments, everything is so well said. Also as a Filipino, I agree that it’s sometimes necessary to go overseas in order to provide for your family at home but really.. this mom definitely had other priorities. I’ve grown up with enough selfish, corrupt titas (and titos) to get the feeling that the mom isn’t any different from them. Taking advantage of her eldest son after YEARS of abandoning him.. have some shame. Anyway God bless Earl John.

I'm kind of sad that the mom didn't teach or speak to her younger children in Filipino. That's kind of one of the advantages of being in a multi-cultural household is to be able to share both cultures.

This is what i believe- his mom left him and remarried another man from korea and had kids. And one day the mom decided to bring back her long lost son(whom she finally remembered she even birthed) to live with her which seems fishy to me since her korean hubby is getting old and none to help with the chores and farm and the siblings looks spoilt as well(ofc none will show it on camera). I feel sorry for john, he's such an innocent,loving and a caring son and a brother. I just hope that he will end up doing things he love and keep himself first above all.

As a Filipino, the mother's behavior is NOT normal. Yes it is normal to leave behind kids for years but Filipino parents would still try to go back and visit home once a year or every few years.

Earl John is such an extraordinary kid and he deserve all the best in life. However, his mother should have brought him to Korea at a very young age, and not awaiting for the husband to get that old because it's not fair on Earl John. To my pov is not fair that Earl John should step in and take care of his extensive family at a such young age.That's the parent's job and not the children. Such a bright young man has to put his life and his dreams on hold to look after the entire family. Not at this stage and age anyway. And on the European continent, we also clean our years every days when we bath or shower. God bless this amazing yong man. I don't think I could do it.

[@pppppplll780]

He is a really good kid and was raised right. I hope he is doing all these because he wants to and not because his mother told him to. I’m Filipino and it’s culture that you have to help your sibling and your family when u get a job as sweet and nice as it is it can be toxic as some Filipinos look at their kids like Trust fund walking wallets and expect their kids to give back because they birthed them like they had a choice. He may be young and simple minded right now but he doesn’t understand the responsibilities of earning for a family of 10+ and feeling like your missing on your own life or freedom.

[@yonyangie]

love how earl jhon speaks so calmly. Normally, when you speak bisaya (local Filipino language) you'd sound harsher and aggressive, it's kinda like the German of Filipino languages hahah but he really has a gentle tone and he even sounds even gentler when he speaks in Korean. Hope the mom teaches their children bisaya though, they're still young they can still absorb the language easily.

[@Moss_piglets]

What part of the Visayan region speak bisaya with a German intonation? My Filipina Lola speaks bisaya and sounds exactly like Earl John. I've been to Capiz, Cebu, Davao and Bacolod countless of times. They are very soft spoken and "malambing" unlike those who are from the North. I'm part German too and Bisaya definitely doesn't sound like German, far from it lol

I have been in all parts of the Philippines because of my work and you can hear them speak like they are angry but it is their normal voice/tone. Also i kinda disagree about his description that bisaya is like a german in Filipino dialects since it is just dumb or should i say stereotypes like how they would describe russians language when they converse.

[@yonyangie]

@@Moss_piglets it's really not about the intonation it's more like of how bisaya people speak.

I still don't think an eldest child should carry the responsibility of raising their siblings and lay back their opportunity to education. Children should also be responsible of their education even if their parents aren't able to provide. Not always asking the breadweaner. Everyone in the family should help and be responsible. Rizal told us that poverty is not a hindrance to success.

This show does a great job conveying the goodness in people's hearts and how hard they work towards a better life. This is the first time I see someone on this show that I can't feel any sympathy for. The mother leaves her 4 month old baby so that she can earn money in SK. Earl's grandmother has to work and raise him, and the poor kid didn't even have anyone to go to his graduations. His mother goes on to have FOUR MORE costly kids instead of sending money to her family so that her elderly mother doesn't have to work to raise her own child. Or at least a plane ticket for him to visit her in SK to get to know his siblings and his mother better. His siblings treat him like a stranger which is heartbreaking to see. He's 22 and now playing catchup with education, but the poor kid can't pursue his dream of going to uni because he has to make money for his 4 siblings. Every scene with his mother she shows zero remorse and is quick to praise herself. She doesn't even go to help Earl with checking into his dorms. No wonder he prefers being there, because they show him way more love than what his mother does. I wish the best for Earl and I hope he realises that he isn't responsible for his mother's toxic shortcomings.

Most average koreans are brown skinned especially the older people in rural areas

[@youngarvee8249]

Korean government should give more help to these young ones. Since Korea is a super-aging society, these young ones are a good workforce in the future.

A very thoughtful Big Bro indeed.. i miss my bro (passed away) .. hope he has a channel on his own... Watching from 🇭🇰🇭🇰🇭🇰

[@supremekai7644]

If only half Filipino and half Korean know how to speak Korean and Filipino, that will be their biggest advantage in the future. They can teach Korean to Filipinos online and they can earn money from it. They can also work in a place with many Filipinos due to their bilingual status.. If only they can appreciate the advantages

[@noiJadisCailleach]

He's quadlingual.

[@supremekai7644]

@@noiJadisCailleach I am not talking about the eldest son because he is not half Korean but for all his siblings and other half Korean and half Filipino in Korea. Just like Dara or Sandara Park of 2NE1,she is fluent in Filipino despite of not being a Filipino but the language itself is very useful in her life.

[@lloydtariman6175]

The part where her mom leaves her at the very young age is totally relatable to me. My mom leaves the philippines and works abroad when i was a few months old and she was working there basically 17+ years. We now lived together after 17 years in Sweden and i tried my best to interact and get used to it.

I feel recognized as a Korean-Filipino !!

[@kennlegacy337]

I hope you are living your life there if you are living in Korea and are free from prejudice and discrimination. I have experienced worse even when i am just vacationing there every summer since i have relatives there.

[@mxp1807]

@@kennlegacy337 fortunately I can say that I haven’t faced extreme discrimination but I do, however, receive stares because I don’t look “Korean”. Sometimes I don’t like going out for that very reason.

[@Chels4hair]

@@mxp1807 That must feel so sad not being accepted by Korean society you're just as much Korean as you are Filipino. I hope you learned your Filipino native language & Hanguel to fluency while learning about both cultures extensively to better help you know your identity regardless of what others say. I hope you feel like you belong without stress in the Philippines❤ Sidenote: Please parents of Mixed-race Korean teach your children your native country's tongue, and have your Mixed-race child enrolled in a racially diverse Dual Korean English language school in South Korea. Lastly, try to live in the most racially diverse place in your area and/or a neighborhood where the people that live there are your child's other ethnicity-race identity.

[@mxp1807]

@@Chels4hair ahh the unfortunate thing is that I wasn’t taught both of my native languages so it makes it harder to understand other people. in the Philippines, however, I don’t ever feel judged there because they also speak English.

the PH flag in the thumbnail is wrongfully used. the blue side should be upward. the red side will only be placed upward during war. the channel should change the flag on the thumbnail. 🇵🇭

[@k-doc467]

We've changed the thumbnail thanks to you! Sorry we didn't think of that beforehand, thanks for the feedback..!!

[@Yukina_rai]

😮😮buti pinalitan

[@noiJadisCailleach]

@@k-doc467 Yeah, if the red part is up, that means the Philippines is currently at war. It's a call to arms. Much like how bells are used in ancient times to tell people to ready up for an invasion. Subtle, silent, and efficient, i'd say. So in a way, the PH flag is still portrayed correctly in the original. But yeah, it's a declaration and a signal not a lot of people outside PH would know.

I remember when we were a kid before my grandmother used to talk to us in Ilocano dialect. That's why when we grow up, we understand the dialect eventhough we're not fluent in it. I hope they also explained to the kids what's their grandmother is saying so that they can understand also.
