New Malden Koreatown; Where North & South Koreans live in harmony… in Europe!?

[@HangukHapa]

I love this video Zoe! It was so nice to meet you and get to show you around New Malden , I really like how you narrated this to capture the place where North and South Koreans live harmoniously together. Let's meet when you're next in town!

[@holmager]

Love your videos, Zoe! When I lived in London me and my partner would go to New Malden often for the food and culture! Definitely try K Town BBQ - it's amazing food and they have a wide selection of soju, too!

[@ZoeDiscovers]

Awww amazing!!!!!

4:15 I always forget the British ride on the left side of the road and got anxious for a bit XDD

[@ZoeDiscovers]

haha yeah we're a minority...

[@1969mmoldovan]

Wow, this video is quite a revelation! To be honest, each time I watch a new video produced by you @Zoe Discovers there is a ton of things I learn. Kudos!

[@jadasakurawatches]

Very interesting! I never knew there was such a community in the UK, if I ever get to visit London this is the first place of my list to visit. Amazing content as always

[@SuperpowerBroadcasting]

This was a good video, Zoe.

[@eddiescott747]

Loving this video! I must admit I only live 10-15 miles from new Malden but have never been 🙈😅 I need to check it out for sure sometime !

[@ZoeDiscovers]

Oh my! Then you have to go! Share this will all your local family and friends 😊

[@User2100]

Looks like a lovely place to visit would love to go!

[@NewMaldenRBLX]

I wanna go that place

[@latinamerican1000]

I have just watched your fascinating video about New Malden. Actually, I used to frequent New Malden every so often in the late 1990s to visit a friend who lived there. I did notice back then a heavy Korean influence, I was even invited to dinner by a random Korean lady on the train. Another subject, given the recent demise of HM The Queen, which you could cover is how the DPRK/North Korea produced a series of stamps on the British Royal Family during the 1980s?

[@ZoeDiscovers]

they did indeed! I could certainly do something on that. I wish I had some...

[@saywhen8582]

Great video.

[@oneasiaworld4609]

Waited.. from Sri Lanka 🇱🇰 ❤️

[@charlesk1089]

Very nice video. I saw a great variety of ROK products and cultural influences but I am uncertain whether any DPRK cultural influences were shown.

[@ZoeDiscovers]

Unfortunately there is no specific DPRK culture there since 1. The DPRKoreans keep quiet and don’t make too much fuss of their identity I suppose and 2. Korean culture is Korean 🤷🏼‍♀️. There are events praising both two cultures but I suppose these are more specific events - not so much in the town generally

Army here 💜 I want to visit in June 2023!

[@nascarcricketer4702]

Yo there is a big Tamil population in new malden, recently got twinned with Jaffna. U should go check out the Tamil population here too

[@ZoeDiscovers]

Cool I didn't know!

[@nixodian]

Please tell me what fascination of n Korea is? U actually went there?

[@antondodeserto5715]

North Korea or South Korea?

[@PizzaStormA]

Both, although there's way more South Koreans. There's about 20,000 South Koreans and 700 North Koreans.

[@sulla01]

What North Korean? You mean the family member of North Korean diplomat or North Korean defector? North Korean can't leave their country freely. I don't understand what you are talking about. If you want to see North Korean live with South Korean, then just come to South Korea. We have tons of North Korean defectors.

[@ZoeDiscovers]

These are mainly North Korean defectors, yes!

[@WatchthisandChill]

@@ZoeDiscovers defectors who would have needed to move to South Korea or China first

[@DavidNunezPNW]

Isn't Korean Chinese just North Korean? Lol

[@ZoeDiscovers]

Nope it’s a whole ethnic group

[@kittykatz3518]

You have yet to show us a North Korean prison camp. Are you allowed to film those or are you going to tell us those don't exist and become a proper propoganda tool for this dictator?

[@ZoeDiscovers]

Neither! 😊. I usually ignore stuff like this but anyway; this channel is purely to show a different side not reported in the media. If you wish to see prison camps please go somewhere else, it’s never going to be shown here as the aim is to *not* discuss camps, rockets, dictators etc as the media usually does but instead rehumanise the issue and show people what *else* goes on inside North Korea. Feel free to unsubscribe if you think that’s not for you, but otherwise please stop requesting prison camps. People wonder if what I do is ethical and honestly I question the ethics of people wanting to see prison camps all the time 😬
