SEOUL VLOG 2 🇰🇷 (Jogyesa, Bongeunsa, Gangnam statue, Starfield Library, FC Seoul, children’s cafe)

[@cha_nee919]

이렇게 세계 여러나라를 여행하면서 아이가 경험한 풍부한 느낌들이 어떤 어른으로 자랄지 너무 기대가 되네요 ..너무 보기 좋아요..안전하고 행복한 여행 하세요~~

[@StephandPete]

We are, too! We hope it makes him adaptable and curious. ^^

[@VOID-bw5jc]

Your son is wonderful too. He looks happy. You guys must be wonderful parents. Welcome to KOREA.

[@StephandPete]

That is such a kind thing to say! He’s a happy boy and we’re lucky to spend so much time with him. 💕

[@lancecorporal7605]

Bongeunsa is amazing. You're in the middle of a concrete jungle, the trade tower is just across the street, but when you step into Bongeunsa, it's like you're transported to a different place - calm, serene, peaceful...

[@StephandPete]

It's truly amazing!

[@c.h.7875]

Also some palaces and royal tombs in Seoul, too. They are in the middle of concrete jungles, so nearby office workers like to take a walk and have a short break after lunch.

8:31 Hays got hold of a hand strap on the metro just like his father did. That's so cute :)

[@StephandPete]

He's learning so much! It's so fun to pretend he's a little city boy for a while since that's not what our life was like back home. :) Thanks for watching!

Beautiful ! I wish we can go back soon... My husband is Korean and I would love to show Korea to our 2 years old son !

[@StephandPete]

I hope you're able to soon! It's a great city for kids, we've found.

[@heavenhaven7254]

I don't think a 2 yrs old would remember any in later life.

@@heavenhaven7254 it's for the experience, to show him his culture and to meet his grandparents even though he will not remember much we can show him the pictures or video later when he grows up.

Wow! That means a lot! We tried to make the most of our one month in Seoul but feel like we barely scratched the surface. We see a little less with Hays than we might on our own, but we’ve so enjoyed our time in this wonderful country.

Tom-n-Toms coffee shops are one of my favorite there. They make some amazing stuffed pretzels.

[@yeun8972]

@6:02 hi! Seems like this hasn’t been answered yet. Koreans give carnations or put on a Carnation badge for parent’s day, which is every 8th of May. (There’s no separate day for mother and father, just one single anniversary for parents in Korea). Korean’s celebrate Buddha’s birthday based on the lunar calendar, so it varies every year. This year it happens to be 8th of May, nicely coinciding with the parent’s day. Hence a nice commemoration given to you two for being an awesome parent :)

[@StephandPete]

Aw! Thanks for letting us know! We had no idea (obviously) 😄

[@yeun8972]

Or it might have just been an entrance ticket kind of thing lol can’t see it clearly. Either way, beautiful parents with a beautiful kid regardless! Thanks for the videos.

I got a shout out!! Also Hays was particularly cute in this video. He was so excited for Buddha's birthday party. And loved him sliding down the ramp in the subway station.

[@StephandPete]

I was wondering if you'd notice! 👍 Ramps are truly the bane of our existence now, but yes I suppose it's cute.

[@kshken]

i loved the shout out!

[@TheHjjin]

The badge says "Happy Buddha's birthday!, Jogye-sa".

[@StephandPete]

Ha! That simple, eh? 😄

If you haven't tried it, you should try Hanwoo at Korean bbq. The meat is from a Korean cow and you can only get the meat in Korea. It's pricier than your regular Korean bbq, but it's something worth it since you won't be able to get it anywhere else.

[@StephandPete]

I think I read about this place! Sounds delicious. We’ll try to check it out. Only a few days left. 😭

[@rxlxviii]

@@StephandPete Since it is on the pricier side, you may want to check out a few videos about hanwoo. kzbin.info/www/bejne/rYbJonSrirV5j6c In the second video, the part about hanwoo starts at 9:10 kzbin.info/www/bejne/i5jKYaCMibufipY There are other videos as well, if you want to do more research.

[@Helen-ts3gt]

In the coex, there are theator called Megabox , and there are aquarium!! I hope you to go there and get some experience if you still living in Korea

[@StephandPete]

We didn’t make it this time. We are from Chattanooga where we have a very famous aquarium, so we are a little biased! :)

[@questforreality3774]

10:17 Good to see u got to sip the football team's official beer -- Actually not half bad - it's a lager made by one of the smaller but solid brewers called sevenbrau. Cheers and hope your family have a smashing time here. The city is just starting to dust itself off after two and a half years, so great timing! By the way, wow u just happened to see the man two days before his inauguration..another bit of uncanny timing!

[@StephandPete]

Everyone said May is the best time to be here, and that coupled with the city coming back to life has been magical. We’ve had such a good time. Thanks for watching and for commenting!

[@c.h.7875]

FYI, You don’t have to be too worried about the troops of polices in Korea. In Jong-ro, especially on weekends and holidays, often you can see them and their buses as there are frequent rallies and demonstrations or events. Most of them end without violence and polices are there to protect the citizens without the things getting severe. If you don't get mixed up in the protesters, nothing will happen.

[@StephandPete]

Thanks for sharing and for watching!

[@OrdinaryKoreanFamily]

Wow, Its scenery is very familiar to me but it looks so exciting from the view of you guys. Enjoy!
