My Solo Trip to Gwangju, Korea VLOG | leaving seoul

[@caricakes]

Here is the video I mentioned about Korean history in film: kzbin.info/www/bejne/pXeUoqVrqap2qZI If you like seeing cities other than Seoul, check out my Outside of Seoul playlist here: bit.ly/2YLR3h4

[@moreshige]

If youre in Gwangju, you have to go to nearby Naju to try their famous pears and Gomtang (beef soup). Or you can visit 김강심 restaurant to try the bean porridge and noodles. The place is huge and constantly packed. You can order too if you're concerned about the virus. South Cholla-do has the best food of all of Korea.

[@utopro]

Almost 40 years have passed since the Gwangju democratization movement began. But as Koreans, hearing the name of Gwangju, we still have complicated feelings of sadness, sorry, pride... At that time, I was a teen in Seoul. And the whole media just conveyed brief statements(not news) that it was a riot by a crazy mob. So the rest of the Koreans could not know the truth. However, as we got to aware of the truth, we did not stop the resistance movement throughout the 1980s. And most of the young people, after they entered college, participated actively in demonstrations for democracy. You can see us in the film '1987'- Cari already introduced(Korean films based on true events). The people of Gwangju and Jeolla-province are like Irish people compared to western viewpoint. This is because of the cunning discrimination policy that the ruling powers of that time subtly differentiated this region from the rest of Korea through separate governance. It is not unrelated to this historical background that people in this region love art, have a high spirit of tolerance, and are very considerate to the weak. Through this process, the universal values ​​of democracy and human rights have thus established as the common values ​​for all Koreans that cannot be reversed. Thanks to cari cakes for reminding me of the shouts of my youth. **When you going to Damyang, don't forget to taste tteokgalbi(chopped seasoned beef rib steak)

Oh my god cari, the events of the Gwangju uprising are what developed my love and interest in Korean history and why I am learning the language. I went to Gwangju in 2018 and I remember going through that museum. So beautiful and well put together. Thank you for reminding me of my time. Loved this video❤️

As a Gwangju citizen, I really loved your content! And yes, my hometown has a very dark past. My grandmother convinced my grandfather and my three uncles to go to suncheon for a while just in case because the paratroopers were shooting people whom they suspect as a "communist rioter". There are people who still saying things like the list of people who have been rewarded for the uprising is fake, citizens of Gwangju and Jeolla province are communists...etc. But as long as we remember what really happened on May 1980, democracy shall prevail in the end.

Thank you so much omg 🥺

[@bykayliecarr]

I'm SO happy that you came to Gwangju! I live here and it's so disheartening to see it overlooked in favour of the other cities. It's so chill here, they take pride in being different. Some tips for those who might visit - Daein Market is better at night. Dongmyeongdong is the best area for cafes. Art Street and the Asia Culture Centre area is best at weekends. The ACC (before covid) usually has a tonne of performances or art markets.

Can we just stop for a moment and talk about the scene of Cari eating the fruit? That black shirt, her loose hair, the perfect piece of hair behind her hear, and the perfect synchronized wind? I am trying to remember of adjectives cause English is not my first language, but a goddess? Yup, she looked like a goddess! ❤❤😍😍

As a non-Korean, when I hear Gwangju, it equals to me with the Gwangju Uprising. Thanks for sharing. 💕 Getting lost in a new city or new place is half as fun as getting to your actual destination. Well, just be sure you are in a safe area, otherwise, it would be a great nightmare. South Korea is relatively safe even at night. Just make sure you have money, phone for your google map, armed with important Korean words and you’ll all be good.

@@chandalungu3698 my experience so far has been pretty good. Of course I get stares here and there but nothing crazy. I’ve never felt like anyone was being racist towards me but I can only speak from my personal experience and I’ve only lived in one city so it could be different depending on where you go. It does get lonely I guess sometimes being in a place where you don’t really see anyone that looks like you, especially if you’re coming from a very diverse city but overall I enjoy living here and I’m glad I made the decision to. I say go for it, you can always change cities or just leave all together if it isn’t for you. But at least you can say you did it.

Great video! I’ve been living in Gwangju for almost 2 years now and it was pretty cool to see it through a traveler’s eyes instead. Might check out some of the cafes you went to! Gwangju doesn’t have as many foreigners as Seoul or Busan, but there is a pretty decent sized community of us here. If you’re looking for a city in Korea that’s not too big but still has a welcoming foreigner community it’s a good place to be 😊

[@nathanphillips4027]

I taught English in Gwangju in 1996-1997 at BCM, Min Byoung-chul, a private school in the downtown area. At the time there were only 300 foreigners there of which only 30 were Americans and the rest were Canadians and a few Australians. It was a very demanding environment teaching very early usually 6:30 in the morning then sometimes during the day and again during the evening until 9 pm. We taught, but we also went to cafes, restaurants, night clubs and all manor of other places with our students. It was important to cultivate “Punigi” which means “atmosphere or mood”. It was very important to have good Punigi for the students to succeed. I did have some difficulty physically because a week before arriving in Gwangju I became very sick and struggled throughout my time there especially with throat pain which was difficult as a teacher, but I look back on my time there and remember all of the good times. My Canadian friend was actually an extra in a film on the Gwangju Uprising. The event really was foundational and I heard many stories about what happened there in May of 1980. I saw a lot of student protests and their clashes with the police in the downtown area during my time there. I was so happy when Kim Dae jung became president just one year later in 1998. Thank you for posting this video. It brought back a lot of good memories.

Wow! I'm so shocked you did this, I subscribed to your channel not to long before I moved to this city. I worked in Gwangju; I lived not far from the train station where you arrived in Seogu. I was there for two years and am moving to another city soon Gwangju doesn't get enough recognition especially it's history. Even when I go back to visit it feels like home, the people feel welcoming and I just know the vibe that I don't get when I go to Seoul or Busan. There is a sense of unification especially with what they went through which is also maybe why I hold it dear to my heart. Anyway, you really captured the beauty of Gwangju 💕 All the comments you said about the city and its people were spot on 😅💖 Hope you can go there again 🤗
