FIRST WEEK LIVING IN SOUTH KOREA | week in my life vlog

[@Xion-ud6ey]

i've been watching wayyyyyyy too many 'living in south korea as a foreigner' vids someone stop me

[@casiana-em4wq]

Me too I just love Korea and want to travel there and learn Korean😩

[@Dksnejwnbskeuebe]

Me too we can go through this together there’s no stopping us anyway😔😌😫😂😂💜

[@youdontknowwhatsgoodforme6589]

@@Dksnejwnbskeuebe count me in too. Im trying to move to korea with friends bitch x

[@beige6003]

I just want to move to another country. I speak English and Spanish so I’m thinking a Spanish speaking country or similar. I can understand Italian so maybe Italy but Spain is definitely my dream. Korea and China would be a dream but the language barrier:(

[@av5829]

Living anywhere has its challenges, NEVER let that stop you! (Although probably don’t move anywhere Rn cause everything kinda sucks)

[@sami.calisto.eller.]

I grew up a military brat and my family and I were stationed in South Korea for 6 years! We lived in Seoul for 4 years and Daegu for 2. My dad worked in Busan when we lived in Daegu. South Korea is the best and is an amazing country and I hope you love every second! 😘😘😘

[@Tuamordee]

Sami Sea Fitness Did you learn how to speak Korean?

[@mia9381]

Destinee Marquez ignored lmao

[@Tuamordee]

Mya Xoxo Right? 😹🔫

[@onebigsnowball]

Thanks your father for his service

[@JJ-yu6og]

You were soooo lucky!!! That is awesome!!! How much Korean do you speak?

[@t1nadk]

moving to korea is my DREAM, i wanna study korean & I honestly hope it comes true.

[@Robynelli]

Courseera.gov is what I use and its great. It's free college courses essentially

[@ayelet2679]

Same

[@blackelf23]

talktomeinkorean.com is really great as well

[@Robynelli]

tiktokxtea;; same i had a dream of going to south korea 🇰🇷

[@Akirameowxp]

Can you make a video about the application process and how you ended up doing this job please!

[@bambi6226]

Akira Meow I agree!

[@toosigoosi]

"They trained me for one day" Ah...sounds like my job at Starbucks.....

[@kendra6808]

Did they really train you for one day?? lol ive thought about applying at starbucks but im a slow learner

[@jvlixn]

@@kendra6808 no lol its a process, unless its a shtty location

[@Sonicxis4ever]

when i worked at Starbucks, my manager went to Puerto Rico the dat after she hired me :O

[@herbertfitzgerald7173]

I’m hoping to teach in Korea once I finish earning my bachelors and I’ve been looking into epik then possibly switching to a hagwon (private academy) and I thought those were the only two ways of teaching in Korea, but your job doesn’t sound like either of those. If you could post a video talking more about your job it would be greatly appreciated!

[@adriennehilll]

i work in a hagwon!❤️ i will definitely be making that video soon. thanks for the support ❤️

[@jellada]

me too omggg

[@jellada]

herbert? wait.. no.. don't say you're *that* herbert.. oh god no

[@WeLoveChallengesx]

I have a tip! When you do your makeup try dabbing the sponge across your face instead of swiping, swiping will remove the coverage and overall dabbing will give a better look:)

[@lifewithhan]

another tip is with powder- dab the brush on your face and roll it to truly get the product on your face and distribute it without moving the product underneath! swirling the brush on your face can remove the foundation underneath and waste powder because you have to keep dipping in!

[@kate5581]

I'm a subscriber living in Korea. Yes, the language barrier could be a problem but Koreans appreciate it if you try to speak to them in Korean even though you make mistakes. I hope you have a great experience in Korea! Sometimes it could get lonely but 힘내세요! 화이팅!

[@adriennehilll]

❤️❤️❤️

[@sojo1]

I moved to singapore for a couple of years growing up and obviously they speak english there but it was still a big adjustment to school and everything else and I did learn mandarin as well. It seems like your adjustment is going great!!

[@madelinerueda7583]

I looove your BTS mirror 💜👌🏻 only real army’s noticed it

[@AnaCristina-jn7rx]

your videos are making me more excited about my study abroad! I'm moving to Germany in two weeks for a year!!! Have lots of fun in this new experience Adrienne (:

[@adriennehilll]

yay!! good luck ❤️

[@bbyoongi9923]

the way she was rubbing the beauty sponge on her face to apply the makeup gave me so much anxiety I had to look away 💀

[@destinycallahan9157]

bb yoongi I was thinking the same thing. That entire makeup routine was stressing me out so much!

[@jodiefong4397]

We started working in Asia around the same time, I left because of the coronavirus, but I can't wait to go back! You are so adventurous and fun!

[@madalina335]

Good luck, Adrienne! 🤗 Looks like you are definitely settling in. I admire your courage and I’m SO excited and eager to learn more about your new adventure. Thank you for taking us all along on the ride! 😇 Love you! ✌🏻💞💞

[@thejanixo]

How did you end up applying there? Didnt you do something completely different at university?

[@simge6600]

she is a native English speaker and has a degree. I guess this is enough to be a teacher in Korea.

[@thejanixo]

@@simge6600 Well thats not my question! Im wondering how she camp up with the idea (didnt like the field she was studying in? just wanted to to take the chance?...?).

[@simge6600]

@@thejanixo oh ok I think she just wanted an adventure and different experience in her life when she is still young

[@arainyf6853]

She was studying finance...

[@gemma_dancer4169]

Simge some schools don’t even make you have degrees to teach English! As long as you speak English fluently and are from typically the uk, us, Canada, New Zealand or Australia then some schools think that’s enough

[@missbeautycutiexo]

I’m so happy for you girl! You seem like you’re in your element and truly just enjoying life! Can’t wait to see more💕

[@kellyb4152]

What an amazing and brave thing to do right out of school! You’re rocking it, and I love that you’re sharing your experience. 😊

[@cutie22326]

I studied abroad in Sicily, Italy last year and it is such a shock! I felt like a tourist for like two of the three months I lived there, but once you got to know the locals and learn the customs of the area it was so much fun to live there! The language barrier is definitely difficult but I mean what can't Google translate help with?! The time goes by way too fast so be sure to soak it in and make connections with as many locals as possible :)

[@lilyann8080]

I'm binging your Korea videos right now and I just want to say that I am ADDICTED. I wanna go to Korea so baaaaaad🤍🤍🤍

[@adriennehilll]

thanks for watching🤍🤍

[@lilyann8080]

Aww It’s literally something I look forward to ☺️

[@demitriajanes1429]

Yay!! So glad to hear everything is going so well!! I'm feeling so inspired to learn more about different cultures now!

[@katharineshields]

i thought i was having a stroke when she was boiling the tomatoes... then i saw the cut up cucumber on pasta AHHHHHHHHH

[@Alegiance]

Cold pasta salads with cucumber and tomato are very common and tasty

[@arctify-]

Im waiting until im 22 or 21 so I could travel to Korea and take one of my friends who is very in luv with korea🌿

[@yeezusjeezus9146]

lmaoo I'm going with you XD

[@christabelleisle]

Omg! I’m so excited for you and this new adventure you are on! It seems like you are transitioning really well and I can’t wait to see where this takes you! Also, totally getting the travel bug from this!!

[@adriennehilll]

so sweet! Thank you 💗

[@ic1238]

Aweee I am impressed with you going there and not running back home within the first month! Moving to another country is exciting but very difficult!!! Love your videos 💞

So happy to see you’re settled in and doing well, only the best wishes lovebug -ya sistas from CLT❤️ (we miss u lots)

[@Hereismytwocents2011]

Yay, I’ve been waiting for this! So glad you are adjusting well. I would love to see some “follow me around” videos, so we can learn about the city. Also, you should show what new foods and snacks you find!

[@baesnslays]

How did you transition from whatever type of money you used before to Korea money? (Asking because I'm leaning Korean so I can move there)

[@shithead666]

before you go to a foreign country you go to an exchange, give them your money in your currency and they’ll change it for you!

[@calliejefferson9529]

Living for these Korea vlogs....never wanted this video to stop

[@koreanexpat3114]

Did you buy everything from Daiso? Daiso is awesome in Korea!

[@Stephi10211]

I can’t wait to see when Chloe comes and joins you in South Korea❤️

[@teyal6147]

How does the whole "switching your phone over" from a USA phone company to a Korean phone company? I currently have Verizon but obviously when I move to Korea I want to keep my phone but I know I may have to change my number or whatever else to keep contact my friends and family here in the states, so how does that work? Also, I am super excited to see more footage of your transition to Korea and just what you have in store!

[@bpal5644]

Teya L You can just get a Korean SIM card.

[@LivingInElysium]

LOL I think it's hilarious that you literally cooked instant cup noodles that you only really need to add hot water to.

[@adriennehilll]

Pink_Elysium HAHA ikr I just really wanted to use my new pot 😂

[@yennhiteresa]

Some instant noodles need to be cooked, and it tastes better that way anyways.

[@LivingInElysium]

@@yennhiteresa Nope. Not when it's obviously cup noodles.

[@Budabaii]

Pink_Elysium miss me with the crunchy undercooked noodles. Pot>pouring hot water in.

[@LittleSkyful]

Pink_Elysium She said some noodles not especially Cup... And if you would be in South Korea you would know 🙄

[@noorbellr9094]

I think is very expensive to buy apartment in Korea (Seoul) right?

[@bpal5644]

Koreans are the biggest fashionistas. They’re always so well put together.

[@AshleyJade18]

Ahhh ... We have Daiso here in Australia... It has only been open here for a few years but It is soooo random and i love it! 😃

Only a thousand years late but I’m coloring my hair today so that’s means binge watching your videos!🥳

[@carlibrooke5714]

hey girl !!! can u please do a what america has and not south korea ? i have a pen pal in south korea and we are doing a package exchange ! i need to know what we have that they don’t have ahah

[@em6239]

sooo excited for all these South Korea videos!!

[@talordawn4609]

You will also get a cold from moving here and the difference in the air quality

[@zziggy808]

From my understanding, Korean culture (maybe this is a East Asian thing too/ie japan) values native English speaking foreigners teaching English more than local Koreans who can teach it as a second language. It sucks for the native teachers but I understand it can be seen good cause it’s a teacher who knows the current culture and can’t speak to them in Korean marking them have to figure it out.

[@tahiratahira0211]

yeah it’s definitely more apparent in east asia, a lot of the international programs to bring in english teachers prefers people from the us/uk because we’re native speakers, most don’t even require us to have a degree in english which is crazy

[@beeautie1729]

Korea is just so cute HAHAHAH it's really pretty there

[@fayes1972]

Where did you get your blouse 14:17?

[@Maria-kq7ju]

did u know the lenguage before u move there? im so curious to know that, like u went there not knowing nothing or what? (love u btw)

[@saraholiver631]

Can I ask how you still use the same phone? Like are you still with Your American provider or did you move over to a Korean one?

[@Arlylife]

Can someone tell me if I as a foreigner would I be able to find a job in South Korea if I have no degree? I’m just curious

[@neelybolick7107]

This is so crazy awesome to see this U are so awesome!!!❤️❤️❤️ Good Luck!!!!

[@sallyting5242]

OMG you posted on JungKook's bday haha💗 Also, would love to see a video all about your income and expense from living in a different country and how you budget etc if it's not too personal, of course if I'm overstepping my boundaries, I'm sorry! I just find it interesting💟 If you could show us around and introduce your favourite korean street food or a what I eat in a day in Korea, that would be awesome! I enjoy watching your vids so much, wishing you alllll the best💖

[@koreainanutshell8212]

It's not the same because I'm not Adrienne, but, I have a whole video going over income and spending for teachers in Korea, it's pretty in depth, but if it's something you're interested in, you might like it: kzbin.info/www/bejne/Y5TSnKOIhMqtbNU

I’m working on learning 한글... any tips for learning korean?

[@kwkelsey]

Chris B Buy flash cards and korean books, download the app Memrise and watch a lot of korean shows/etc. talk to Koreans!

[@JennyGoesToUSA]

wait... you are training a year in the US to be teacher? ONE year? it takes 2 degrees, 6 years of university, several internships + 1.5 -3 years in class training here in Germany

[@elizabethmajerus4047]

Jennifer H I am from the US and becoming a teacher it takes 4 years with 6 months- 1 year internship. Then when you get your first job that school has a new teacher training that’s about a week or so.

[@drmedemilie]

that’s why the german school system is one of the best in the world.. also there must be reason why people say the Americans are less educated than most

[@giggleslaughter4984]

How do you communicate with people like shop owners? Also is working difficult because you don't speak the same language or do you have an Interpreter?

[@giggleslaughter4984]

Also how did you find an apartment and were able to afford it?

[@carolina98765]

I’m super happy for you...keep thriving for what you want 💕💕

[@maddierose9633]

Hello!! I just wanted to say that I really enjoyed watching this video and am excited for more of your content :) I too am interested in moving over there and I think it would be really helpful and interesting for others who are also interested in moving to Korea if you made a video on all the "behind the scenes" stuff you had to do when you got there. I personally have no idea how that would even go down, so learning from your and other peoples experiences would be very helpful!! Thank youuuuu

[@VeggiesbyEos]

So glad to see everything is going well!

[@timotheefries898]

I’m so excited for this❤️❤️

[@mimishrestha3054]

did you give the TOPIK exam to go to Korea as an English Teacher??

[@홍승현-m8r]

Omg... so great!! I really look forward to posting next video!!❤️❤️

[@natmendez89]

Nice video! So exciting for you to be able to experience another culture and you’re super brave to travel over there alone despite the language barrier. You should get a bicycle. When I was in Germany with the army I traveled either on train or with my bike.

You just need a bachelor’s degree in any subject. If you don’t have a teaching degree most schools want you to have some kind of teaching certificate such as a TEFL certification. I’m currently getting my degree so I can teach in Korea. 💜🇰🇷
