My Parents Meet Ben's Parents | JENNUARY #2

[@imjennim]

Happy Sunday, jems! This Jennuary is an eventful one. Also any ideas on what to call the February vlog?! 😳

[@rachelnguyen4283]

clothesencounters Fennruary?? Jennruary? (like Jennuary with an extra r) 😂

[@lindaquach4972]

clothesencounters JENNlentines!! ^^

[@htatamoto21]

notice me senpai

[@haech_4624]

clothesencounters jenn's feb sounds pretty cool

[@miasaenger8253]

I love love LOVE your vlogs

[@ashleyobserves]

so proud you're voting in the midterms and for taking steps to be civilly engaged! thanks for inviting us into your world to see your growth. it will really inspire others (:

[@imjennim]

Thank you, Ashley! n_n

[@chickgonesquirrely]

😸please do a wedding prep series like Chriselle did

[@rheaclairemalagamba8425]

YES!

[@andreea643]

ChelsRen tbh i think planning a wedding is already hard enough let alone vlogging it. let's give her some rest, guys.

[@imjennim]

I will! (:

[@jjasminepetal]

I love it how your Daddy goes all giggly at the mention of "Grandparents" 😂

[@AranEnglish]

Oh my gosh! I don't know why I almost cried watching both of your parents meet! It's probably because I was reminded of my Korean parents meeting my American husband's parents for the first time. Even though they don't know each other's language, they couldn't be better family now.

[@imjennim]

Awww this comment made me so happy! n_n

[@leong-882]

I really love your style, and how you seem to be able to pull off anything. When I first started watching your channel, you were still filming videos with Sarah. Then you graduated from school and were asking which outfit to wear for your graduation. I remember seeing you dye and cut your long black hair, move a few houses, watch your hair grow longer again, dated Ben, got Cheeki, and now wow you're getting married. I just want to say that I'm so glad to be able to find this channel so early, and being able to somehow grow together with you. Also, I'm so happy for you to be able to find that special someone to spend the rest of your life with. Really hope that you will continue being happy and positive. Love ya Jenn!! (:

[@kiriyoplay]

Jenn: Don't get me any Cheetos Ben: It's a test! *gets Cheetos* Lol XD

[@imjennim]

LOL! He passed the test!

[@jindanwang2398]

Then we saw you working out in the gym twice in this video.

[@9410191747]

Jindan Wang-Bodling its on different days

[@bellasara1233]

lol love the european kissing on the cheek and jenns parents were just like wtf xD

[@Rooftopdreams]

Thats so cute though!

[@milky_quartz]

latinos do that too

[@KyleLojo]

bellasara1233 my boyfriends Mexican family does the same. I was caught off guard when everyone was going in for cheek kisses in Mexico.

[@pineapplee6389]

Where when

[@dianachamomile]

I didn't know the Brits did the whole double kiss greeting! :O Both your families are so cute ♥️ Wonder what the Feb vlogs are gonna be called, can't wait!!

[@faithpauline]

SlipsAndStones that part where Ben's dad greeted Jen's mom was pretty awkward xD

[@EmmLee1111]

SlipsAndStones I do a three kiss greeting!

[@thebirdisblue]

I'm British and I've only had a kiss greeting a couple of times x

[@simplyshama]

tbh, british people aren't really about physical contact so we usually give one. if someone's from continental europe I give two

[@Loriani93]

are you dutch?

[@wellnesswithwendyy3916]

It was so endearing to see both your guys' families meet!! I know traditionally, Asian parents always want their children to end up with someone of the same ethnicity, but it's so nice to see how accepting your family is of Ben ☺️

[@jnc-rs6fk]

omg your dad's laugh after you called them cheeki's "grandparents".....I'm melting.... so adorable 💕

[@imjennim]

Hahahha! Cheeki makes them so happy!

[@Malibu7777]

jnc1835 I felt exactly the same way!!!! Love Jen's dad's laugh! Sooo sweet!! :D

[@lautali]

OH MY GAWD!!! Your parents and Ben's parents are so cute!! I honestly could tell the difference two cultures but diversity is such a beautiful thing! And I hope everything is well with you!

[@cafezo87934]

HeartFelt they seem to get along so that's all that matters.

[@CarinaandZara]

I love seeing asian and western cultures mix :) gives me SOOOO much hope!

[@imjennim]

Thank you so much! n_n

[@Emmiiii267]

I look at Ben and as such big fan of yours Jenn I have to say my heart fills with joy because he looks like such an amazing person just like you ! wish yall a happy marriage and cant wait for the future married video :")

[@Emmiiii267]

Btw I looovvveee when Ben Vlogs!!

[@imjennim]

Awww thank you so much!

[@wildanemones]

You're literally glowing a lot more in and out these days with or without make-up. Guuurl being engaged made you so much more brighter! Congrats again & I'm so happy for you Jen! ❤❤❤

[@_pokaito]

Jennimtines! Loved the vlog btw!!! Your vlogs are my fav :)

[@ahnie07]

phLkait best one I've read yet! That's super cute!

[@jenny-bu4le]

THIS

[@teredelatierra189]

I've been struggling with anxiety and depression for the past months, and watching your videos really really help me and make me so happy. I dont really know why, they just make me feel calm; and I thank you for that.

[@highlyhp]

While I did find it really disappointing and upsetting when you told us you didn't vote in the election, it's great that you're learning and becoming more politically active. I recognize that not everyone was raised with a feminist mother like I was, not everyone was gleefully passing out Obama pins to their friends at school in the 5th grade, not everyone was participating in politics from a young age, or even as they got older. We truly do all learn and evolve at different times--that's something huge that I've learned going to college. Being honest about these issues of voting, human rights, etc., puts you in a really vulnerable position, and I appreciate you sharing that part of yourself with us. It really goes to show that we never stop growing and never stop learning. Much love to you!! xx

[@teresalm8988]

I love that Ben keeps saying your name while buying stuffs. So sweet

[@theginger396]

Your vlogs are straight fire. Always make my day. So happy for you and ben, many blessings. Also, why did you choose Jenn with two n's? Im a one n Jen and I just picked it because it required less time to write lol.

[@imjennim]

Aww thanks Jen! I chose 2 N's when I was in 6th grade because there was another Jen in my class. Hahah!

[@passonfruitem8349]

clothesencounters hey Jen, where did you get your glasses? I'm getting new ones and love yours

[@hannahkyme4809]

When you stood up for your beliefs on politics my respect and love for you multiplied. People like you really change how the generation becomes through your platform. So thank you for bringing viewers of all ages an example of a strong independent woman who is not afraid to say what she believes in

[@anluxem7876]

How about 'FABruary with Jen'!

[@anluxem7876]

Because you're fabulous!

[@suzanam3587]

FabJen crossed my mind, close enough :D

[@Rooftopdreams]

That's pretty good! HAHA wish i could pun as well as you guys!

[@dianezhao6127]

you're literally the most inspiring and positive human being ever! watching your vlogs makes me so happy inside

[@studio86yt]

Your vlogs are always eventful!! Love it!

[@erinstudt-izdebski511]

I wanted to let you know how truly proud I am of you for attending and covering the Women's March. I think it shows great responsibility that you're using your platform for good. I attended the Women's March NYC and it was a day I will never forget. It provided me with a sense of community and warmth I had never experienced. Thank you for this!!! xo

[@InsertHappinessHere]

Ben is such a natural vlogger!

[@llululala]

Jenn, you truly are so awesome and I'm so proud to follow you! I think you are truly brave for using your platform for issues you believe in (and issues that rightfully and truly need attention on). I am sure that this will be a decision you will look back on years to come and be proud of it. Not many people have the courage and sincerity you do, which makes you all the more charming and a role model for us all. I hope you know that there are many people who support you! You truly deserve all the wonderful things that come your way!

[@inkseer]

HAH. My Korean parents also kept the heater off. I basically grew up half frozen.

[@kayydoubleyou11]

I've never noticed until now how much I love your friendship with Steph!! Like some real soul sisters

[@ericarichardson4561]

So proud of your social activism! Keep it up❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️!

[@imjennim]

Thank you, Erica!

[@kovusgarden]

Thank you for sharing about your families, it was a very sweet moment to see them meet. You both talk about your parents in a very loving way, it shows how much you respect and care for them. Amongst everything that you put out, your character keeps me a huge supporter. Even when you're put on the spot, you're able to express your opinions with such grace. ❤

[@firdamaruf7923]

It's so sweet how Ben talked and remembered you even when you're not around :)

[@cocoklolu]

i like the ben segments as well! he really compliments your personality and style in these vlogs! totally digging this vlog!

[@Mxdxlinx]

Thank you for being politically aware!! Thank you for putting your checkup on your blog super important

[@Mxdxlinx]

Vlog *

[@jentom678]

Madeline +

[@sarastar634]

i quiet like it when ben vlogs as well!! He's such a natural at talking casually and not over acting when the cameras around~

[@Pinknight92]

Hey Jenn for the longest I love your content you put out and you as a person, I finally purchase your necklace as a Valentine Day present for myself lol(I know sounds sad) want to thank you for being you, your videos help me stay positive keep things in prospective and congrats on your success on everything

[@imjennim]

Aww! I don't think it sounds sad at all! Thank you so much for getting my necklace and for supporting my line. I know it's gonna look amazing on you! Wishing you a wonderful day!

[@knongknongs]

Aww that's actually a really great idea! Cause Valentine's Day celebrates love, and many people including myself forget to love themselves a lot of the time. Maybe I'll get on this. Hope you have a lovely day! :)

[@Shy_Gonz]

XxBlueKnight92xX where?

[@brigitakrista2127]

XxBlueKnight92xX it's not sad to give yourself a treat! x

[@jadegon7397]

I live for jenn's vlogs tbh. Literal life goals! ♥️

[@lanivlogs7343]

Your vlogs are always so on point gurl! I cant believe how much things have changed in your life. I've been watching you for 3+ years and gurl you gonna rule the world haha! xx love from down under! (Australia lol)

[@paloyc.3778]

I have been watching your video since 2015. Since I even didn't understand what you say because English isn't my first language. I tried so hard to get what you say. until now that I can get everything. Since the former Jen who just graduated. Now she's engaged. I feel so happy to see you grow up and I love to see your life. I love you so much Jen Unnie!

[@datcat0000]

Jenn, will you upload your wedding video?

[@imjennim]

Definitely! (:

[@hazelhwl]

I swear you're one of the only youtubers I can watch videos of without realizing how long they are. I love you, your friends, & family! Everyone is so sweet & genuine and I'm so happy for you & Benn on your engagement!!

[@Cyndercake]

Jenn's vlogs are never boring

[@whatthekate4688]

i've been watching you for a few years now and i really want to tell you how much you inspire me and how proud i am of how far you've come. i love you and your videos, Jenn! thank you!

[@nidhigandhi4181]

That's why you wear socks UNDER the fishnets!!

[@imjennim]

OMG. GENIUS!

[@Kuralai95]

Nidhi Gandhi why can't you wear socks over the fishnet? 😂

[@user-ir5sk5mu6h]

Ailin Ell bc jenn said that her toes stick out of the fishnet

[@mochi7643]

Ailin Ell in the video Jenn was uncomfortable about her toes poking out of the fishnets

[@lilsjoy]

this is what i do!

[@HannahAhimsa]

what a beautiful, vibrant life you have. It's so refreshing to see you surrounded by so many people you love and who enrich your life and clearly make you smile! I hope I can find the same, at the moment, I'm 20 & in college & all anyone seems to care about is drinking and drama. Love your content Jenn & congrats on your engagement!

[@poiikaer]

I'm finally early! I love you Jenn! You remind me so much of my older sister, whom I lost a few years ago. Watching your vlogs always lifts my spirits

[@imjennim]

I'm glad my videos make you feel that way! I'm so sorry to hear that you lost your older sister. I wish I could give you a hug.

[@7285love]

Oh Jenn, over the past four years you've grown on me sooo much!!! You've become the big sister of mine and my heart was so fuzzy watching your parents meet Ben's. You're the sweetest unni, I can feel the warmth of your heart all the way from Canada 💕💕💕💕💕💕

[@frompariswithhatred]

love that you got involved in the women's march!

[@imjennim]

Thank you! n_n

[@shinisla93]

Omg that last part where cheeki head just pops up from your lap... so cute!!!! Your dad's reaction at the last few mins with cheeki was so cute too.

[@patchoulighoul]

Your dad is adorable LMFAO I love that laugh at the end

[@babaganoush7947]

asirensaria reminded me sooo much of my Korean father. Maybe it's a Korean thing??haha

[@patchoulighoul]

Selina Jung ahah idk my dad has a similar laugh and he's Colombian, either way it's great lol

[@ricahhh_9052]

Please take good care of your health and also to Ben. wishing you both the best!

[@knquiza]

your vlogs are the best ahh i love you happy sunday!

[@imjennim]

Thanks Kayla!

[@lucie8197]

So funny when your dad says "grandparents" chuckles and says it again at the end of the vlog 😂 love you Jenn!

[@ProduCiera]

Not that POC are all the same,buuuutttt 😂 we all have a lot in common! I know in Black households you DO NOT touch the AC or heat unless you're the one paying the bill 😅 there are sooo many other examples (home remedies,and child discipline) but I just thought I'd point it out. We're all cousins,y'all ❤❤❤

[@imhereformusic]

Omg so true!!! Grew up in a Hispanic household and was only allowed to use half a sheet of paper towel and even then that half better have been used 10 times lol

[@ProduCiera]

Kimberly Right! Being wasteful was NOT an option! I'm grown,now,and I see why my parents were like that. If I'm home alone I'm cold in the winter and hot in the summer 😂 those bills are no joke!

[@imjennim]

Hahahah! That's so crazy! We have a lot in common growing up!

[@cainnerojudaslegion]

Same in my home :)

[@MsRaconteur]

+Kimberly yo this is the same of indian households!!! Also stockpiling free grocery bags to use as trashbags 😂😂😂

[@FarlyCreates]

You are so correct! No matter what time frame you started researching and becoming active, you have the right and choice to participate in what you feel is right. On the flip side, I've seen people slamming other women who did not participate in the march and saying they're less of a woman. It's so ugly out there. Kudos to you for doing this, Jenn! Of course, great vlog! Yours are always my favorite!

[@ranl.1927]

OMG I'VE NEVER BEEN SO EARLY LUV U JEN ❤💕💕💕 And nice to know you participated in the women's march!! ☺☺

[@imjennim]

Aww thank you!

[@ILOVEUMUSICXD]

i love how ben has been starting to vlog it's so nice to see and you two are so cute together i can't even, your vlogs are like a book for me to read, i really appreciate and like them. keep up being you jenn

[@biancahaubh]

Cheeki poping up to say bye @19:24 so cutee

[@imjennim]

LOL! She had to make a little cameo!

[@hazalsaryldz5209]

i watched like 10 times where Jenn's dad laugh about "grandparents". So cute. Your vlogs always makes me so happy. Love from Turkey.

[@kimlucio9413]

Benruary?! I mean....

[@popyNcorny]

Kim Lucio I love this one haha

[@leapaulino]

Kim Lucio LOL!!

[@Rooftopdreams]

HAHHAH KIM YOU'RE A GENIUS!

[@zhaziraz9625]

Kim Lucio perfect!

[@TheCrispyflower]

or MARCHEETOS ?

[@mmhmm2121]

Proud of you Jenn!! I live in Washington, DC so I marched with my mom who came down to visit and it was incredible.

[@yejiyooon]

Dad: "Cheeki's clean" Jenn: "Thank you!" 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂 you're so cute🤓

[@imjennim]

Hahahahahha!

[@Chelsea-jg8vv]

Jenn's vlogs are the only ones I watch thoroughly without skipping a part. I luv her vlogs

[@Taleofthegreat]

I don't think I've ever enjoyed anyone's vlogs as much as I enjoy Jenn's...

[@mxaliftferu8691]

i really love watching you talking jenn like i jenuinely loves you so much u r my fav

[@SeeKaysee]

I admire you for speaking up for things you believe in. Go 'head girl. 💪🏽❤

[@theresatran]

tulips are my mom's favorite flower too!!! :D so glad your families had a great time meeting each other!

[@magdachoo]

Hi Jen! I wonder what's your dad talking about in Korean at the end of this vlog?

[@CaralineFuyumixoxo]

Magdalena Yamasari I was totally wondering about that too!!

[@hyacinthdibley]

Magdalena Yamasari ooooh. I only understood "onje...when".....and "-so ending...past tense". Thanks for the translation. :-) What word did he use for "bath/shower"? thanks

[@daematos]

He used the word '목욕'/mok-yok (:

[@hyacinthdibley]

Cindy C Ah, i see. Thank you so much. :-)

[@Geelollipops]

I'm so glad you're open and comfortable to share your views online- it is very daunting but the fact that you did use your platform for a very good purpose reflects your courage and confidence even more! Well done love! Btw, you and Steph are best friend goals!! xx

[@buttplsno]

omg you look so pretty in the car at the end of the video. your skin looks so PERFECT

[@thu5312]

So glad the dinner went well!! LOL @ the heater/AC issue. I also grew up without those luxuries.

[@lautali]

OH MY GAWD!! JENN CONGRATULATIONS I LOVE YOU!!! And oh my God...in the future if my parents meet his (my nonexistent other. single for life jk) parents. ..I have this feeling...it will be...AAAAAHHHHH! I LOVE YOU!!

[@imjennim]

Hahahah! Don't worry! It'll be just fine! n_n

[@sarikathakorlal]

That was SO lovely and sweet Jenn! AND I am seriously digging your 'sty' makeup look, lols! It looks so fresh and kinda more editorial! Would love you know more about what makeup your using because the colours are so nice and look amazing on you! Loving that topknot/waves/massive earring look too, super cute XXXX

[@GraceJones1]

Lol. Yes, Asian parents are very frugal with AC and heater 😂😂 Have an amazing Monday Jen ❤❤

[@ynngtn]

I think it's awful that people are making those comments that 'you don't have the right to march', your honesty last year should be commended and I'm sure it would have felt daunting to even include that in your video. You are such a fantastic role model to young women everywhere (myself included). Loving the progression in your content over the past year

[@juliakim3651]

Jen i love your glasses!! Can you tell me where you got them from?

[@monitaxrawr]

Aw! Steph and Ben are so thoughtful to have both gotten you your favorite snack, they're the real MVP!

[@sokaarzola]

I love your blogs Jenn, they are so relaxed & easy going haha. :D

[@feversgotmesweatin]

The makeup you wore on Saturday was FABULOUS! I'd love to see how you created it ❤️

[@adibakdeen2577]

Hey Jen! Can u do a makeup tutorial on the look u were wearing in 16:00? 😍

[@tiffanyld1]

Jenn i am so glad you went to the women's march!! Theres no better time than now to get involved!

[@sophiatan5685]

I can't get over how aesthetically pleasing the shot at 7:21 is hahaha

[@dianavo7852]

I agree with you. People shouldn't judge you on what you decide because in the end you still stood up for what you wanted and thats what matters. Some who say that you have no right is wrong, because this is america and you have every right. I support you and believe in all that you do! SO inspirational and courageous!

[@lindaquach4972]

February vlogs could be called JENNlentines :)

[@imjennim]

LOL! I like that!

[@katietan2114]

Your videos always make my day. You have such a bright and optimistic spirit. Big fan!

[@T2SM0425]

Oh my! I really like ur vlogs!!! Pls do a fitness video!!

[@Rooftopdreams]

The lip color on your avatar looks great too! Btw I do fitness and fashion videos! Do come and check it out if you have time

[@ChewyChoi]

awwwie your vlogs make me so happy. Congrats again and again on the engagementl!!!!!! Jenn you're like an unnie to me, I've been watching since the Sarah days and seeing you find love and success in life but staying true to yourself is always inspiring and so beautiful

[@Dartagnan010]

You have the best teeth ever.

[@jeahmeowreen]

Thank you for joining the Women's March Jenn!!!! So proud to be an OG subbie!!

[@talia5462]

omg i adore the bilingual exchange at the end! That is from a huge language lover, so it may seem odd, but yeah. beautiful and smart!

[@theayburan]

Love your dad's laugh when you called your parents cheeki's grandparents lol! My dad laughs the same way, so I'm now concluding that dads share a universal dad laugh

[@lexuschristopher23]

When Stephanie tried to be salt bae lmao

[@rhknow8888]

Your vlogs bring be so much joy!! Too good! Much love, Rajani

[@guobae6893]

Jenn! You should do a workout routine sometime! :D

[@imjennim]

Sure!!

[@strangedee1]

Way to go! Love that you were active and participated in the Women's March!!

[@susu2898]

Your mom and dad ask in Korean and you answer in English lol. What a global family!!

[@Isabella-zw5ez]

how can we not love and adore this couple

[@elainechan6249]

hi jenn! it was so great meeting you + steph at the march (that's me at 8:31!! :O :O :O). it warmed my heart to be fighting + resisting alongside you.

[@pyrogummybear37]

i love that you do puppy play dates. so cute

[@nicolesoominkim9114]

"깨~끗하네!" 😜 Congrats Jenn! Not to be nosy but I really hope you'll take the time to learn Korean sometime like you said in one of your Q&A's (I think?). I know it's something all of us Korean-Americans need to brush up on. And teach it to your future English-Korean kids I hope?😘

[@ShafiraMeisy]

Jenn please keep making monthly vlogs! I never watch tv bca of youtube world and you're the 1st blogger who males me love vlogs so much! Ah i love you!
