@@AlexW333He is a Korean-American Kpop Star. He debuted in the group U-Kiss in (I think) 2008 but left in 2017 when his contract expired. Has been doing his own thing since then and is very well beloved as just a gentle entertainer. For most people here it will be a “WOW that’s my teenage Crush that used to be so important to me but I haven’t heard about in YEARS” It’s nostalgia kind of paired with the curiosity as what he has been up to. Seeing him in Japan is not weird at all, they always were promoting a lot in Japan.

I started to get into K-pop and asian dramas, probably like 2years ago and so, I wanted to start to learn Korean, so I can start to have some understanding and I like watching your channel and your interaction with native speakers in all languages. I'm trying not to be shy with even speaking and went to a local beauty supply store run by Koreans and tried my very, very basic intro convo and the lady just made such a big deal, 😆, telling everyone in the store, I knew Korean 😂, I'm not fluent, but she understood, and I was nervous, shy and proud at the same time, by the compliments and she couldn't get over my native sounding pronunciation😅 so you definitely inspire me✊🏾.

I'm seriously impressed by anyone who can speak multiple languages, especially one from a language family distinct from their native tongue. As to why so many people don't watch her videos to the end, how many times can you watch the same content? Every video that shows shocked reactions from locals when the KZbinr unexpectedly speaks a language far removed from their own is almost identical. It's not just Oriental Pearl's content either. There are many polyglot channels with a similar "white person speaks the local language and people are shocked" theme. I'd be more interested in seeing her a) show her day to day as a foreigner who is fluent in East Asian languages b) teaching people in these countries English given she can "explain" in their own language, or c) showing how she starts learning a language from scratch.

A lot of people aren't subscribed to KZbin channels because you don't really need to. KZbin shows you what they want you to see. I'm subscribed to many channels that I never get notified of because I haven't watched them in a while, and I get notifications (or my feed is populated with) channels I'm not subscribed to, but have recently watched a video from, so, KZbin pays more attention to what you're doing now rather than what you clicked 'subscribe' to. In your case though, I am subbed..

@@anadd6195 Not really, the subscribtion amount is pretty much meaningless, take shorts for example, if you send the clips to your subscribers, you get no outward reach, but if you just massbroadcast them your subscribers may never see them... KZbin's content is double edged like that. Those channels that show up in your shorts feed, never want you to subscribe because then you don't see those shorts. Unless you actively go to their channel to look at the shorts. KZbin is a shithole when it comes to caring for their creators.

I have been a subscriber for a while and always watch to the end. Your experiences are so special and we are fortunate that you share them. Pre-pandemic, I tried learning enough Mandarin to order my favorite dishes at a local Chinese restaurant. After much practice I felt confident enough to give it a try with one of my favorite servers. When I spoke she just looked at me with a weird expression. She called over another server and that person asked me to say what I had said. I did and got the same puzzled look from them. Now the owner came by the table and the three had a quick chat. All the time I am thinking how did I mess this up that they are confused??? The owner then asked me to say what I had said. I did and he smiled. He told me I was speaking Mandarin and that he was the only person there that did. On the bright side he did tell me I said it all well. But my lesson learned was the danger of just assuming. Color me embarrassed.

Also, I follow other sites giving an insight into typical Japanese culture and everyday life! It is so different to Irish and Western culture and endlessly fascinating! To my eternal shame I can't speak Irish! I love the reaction videos. They are humourous and heart-warming. Remember what the lady said. You ARE still young😂! If you ever decide to visit Ireland, check out the Irish Language & if you ever do come I'd love to be able to shake your hand like the pleasantly shocked people you meet.

So, I'm a big fan of Xiaoma and I've been trying to put my finger on the disparity in the popularity between your two channels. I think I figured it out. His videos show him a lot. And a lot of the fun of these videos is seeing his interactions, not just the reactions of native people. A lot of the appeal of his channel is his personality. You have the same kind of charming, appealing personality, and I think it would help your channel grow more if you would simply show yourself more in the interactions. This video is a good example of that, since you show yourself a lot. It helps the audience connect with you more, emotionally. Yes, I know that sounds creepy, and I suppose it is, but it's you as the main character of your videos that is the primary appeal. Just like people have a favorite celebrity. It's the same for the KZbin space. Nice work!

As always I enjoy your video's for the language interactions primarily, but a very close second is the very human interactions you have with people. Some very brief and some that turn into much more involved conversations. The fact you can do this makes these interactions more impactful not only for you, but for the people whom are happy to learn that a foreign person was willing to take the time to learn their language. Most are happy that visible foreign looking people take the time to learn polite tourist phrases, but when they can interact in their own language their comfort level to interact becomes obvious. Why don't people subscribe? How is it possible to not watch each entire video from start to finish. Anming 7 is an amazing creator of unique content. Her and this channel deserve much more support. I want the longer more involved videos to happen regularly and so should you.

My boyfriend is from Tennessee (USA) and took 4 years of Japanese. I took 4 years of French. He's way better at Japanese than I am at French, haha. There was one time we were browsing Downtown San Diego and we ran across a group of very professional-looking businessmen, who my boyfriend recognized as Japanese. He excused us as we went around them, they perked up and were like, "you speak Japanese?" (in Japanese; he told me all this later). He told them just a little. They had a small conversation and we went into the restaurant they were standing in front of. Mind you: he was wearing a nerdy T-shirt and a cowboy hat the whole time. I think he blew their minds. It was AMAZING. As a redhead, I can't turn any heads speaking French anywhere. But he's white, American, and wears a cowboy hat. I'd love to see him get more reactions like that, but we don't go out into Downtown anymore because he's contracted multiple sclerosis. I'll never forget that interaction, though.

Like your videos. I travelled to Japan from Australia and learned a bit of Japanese before i arrived. They really appreciate the effort to embrace their culture so its well worth doing. Good luck for the channel and I will keep watching.

I really don't like it when people call it a glitch when people don't know how to react when a foreigner speaks your language idk in a way these reactions just sound to glorify xenophobia to me. For attention. I'm sorry.

Don’t take it so seriously. Basically if I label the video “Some nice conversations in multiple languages” the KZbin algorithm will burry it and nobody will see it.

I appreciate you making these videos because I am very interested in languages but have only scratched the surface on a few and I am not fluent in any but English... I can understand some things in several languages but speaking it is a real challenge. Italian is probably the easiest for me to understand but I love Korean and I always listen to Korean camping shows so I pick up some there. I really don't have time at the moment because my life is so busy but for down time I like to watch your channel and Korean camping shows and it does help me understand more and more. Thank you for everything you do. I don't understand why people don't subscribe... it just takes a click and if they don't want to get every notification there is the personalized so that they come less often. Anyway keep up the great work! I can only imagine the work you put in to do what you do! ... and it puts so many smiles on so many faces!!! including mine!😊

I just loved listening to you speaking the language you’re so smart ,I would love to learn ,but to me that would be very hard …. I don’t know if you live in Japan ,or China , but you gave us all the flavour of the city you were in… thank you so much🥰😜💕
