Jenn Im what kind of vacuum is that!? In need of a good one 😭🤩

[@puppetboymiguel9459]

Jenn I love you so so so so so so much💗💗💜💜❤❤💙💙💛💛💚💚

[@JJ-yu6og]

Jenn Im Hi 👋 Jenn, what were you narrating? Where can we find it??

[@ThinkInStyle]

"i'm engineer. i'm engineer." HAHAHAH your family is the cutest!

[@BlueDawnFlame]

Would you ever think about maybe doing a laundry video? You have such a wide range of materials and colors and I’ve always wondered how you go about separating things. I’m the “throw it all together” type of washer.

[@ticklemepoynter]

0o0oh that'd be such an interesting video :) I hope she does one!

[@ayuf.m.9241]

Wow good suggestion!

[@perpetualx]

I'd be down to watch this too!

[@NooodleBaby]

This is a good one 👌🏿

[@CarolCao]

Woah good suggestion. She probably dry clean most of them. I hope she will do a vid on this!

[@emeeree]

JEN'S DAD APPRECIATE POST. I was dying at his comments

[@imjennim]

Hahahah! He's hilarious!

[@SooahJoo]

YOUR DAD IS SO CUTE HAHAHA "IM ENGINEER"

[@imjennim]

LOLOL!

[@littlekeziah]

My boyfriend (who is British born chinese) says this all the time lol had to snapchat that bit to him

[@Kate-bo6sb]

Would you ever do a what I eat in a week or like a favorite recipes? I feel like it'd be super interesting. I've eaten Korean food at restaurants, but the food you eat when you go home always looks so good. I don't know if you'd be up for it, but like a cooking video with you mom would be adorable. Just an idea! Love your videos.

[@theshiningfive]

Kate amen to this! so much YES

[@fathimatuzuhara7299]

Kate ir

[@Bebe-eh1yf]

Ben is such a great boyfriend. It's so nice to see him dwell into your culture as well. ❣️

[@mandy600]

your dad yelling OH MY GOSH!!!!!! and I AM ENGINEER during jenga is some of the purest things i've ever seen :'(( wahah happy new year jenn and ben!!!

[@cherrysweets831]

“I’m engineer. I’m engineer.” OMG THAT HAD ME LAUGHING SO HARD

[@animenightwalker]

your skin looks amazing!! can we get an updated skincare routine? or skincare tips?

[@imjennim]

It's the same as my Get Unready With Me!

[@hhaannnnaahh222]

Genetics 😂 she does take great care of her skin but I swear genetics is 80% of how your skin is

[@seungminlee2713]

Ben is so adorable doing his 절 (traditional new year bow)! It's really nice to see that he's open to Korean traditional customs :-)

[@geometricperspective]

hahahahahahha DIED when your dad kept chanting "im engineer" omg

[@beatricewongchalermthan565]

It was really cool to see how your family was so comfortable around your fiance. This new year was the first time I got to spend time with my bf's extended family. He's Korean, I'm Thai. We had similarly awesome food, and it was my first time doing the bow. The young adults played games. This reminded me of the good times that came after a night of stress and nervousness. It's comforting to see another person go through somewhat similar environments.

[@twelvetimesme]

Your family is the absolute cutest (I'M ENGINEER I'M ENGINEER 😂) and it's so heartwarming how Ben is fully embracing Korean traditions, it really shows how much he loves you 💕💕

[@amberlol7]

Would you do an FAQ with your mum? She seems so cute and friendly and it would be so nice to hear what she thinks about the world and also her journey immigrating to North America!

[@dearestSAMANTHAMEL]

“i’m engineer. i’m engineer.” LOL idk why that part made me laugh so much. loved this video as always :)

[@sleepyleaf1998]

I really love hearing you speak Korean! Would love to see you make a video in korean 😍

[@angelpark9943]

yu shuang she did speak a little bit of Korean in the vlog

[@sleepyleaf1998]

Angel Park yes, I watched the whole video, I meant it like make a whole video in korean hahahah

[@영서-b4t]

이름이뭐냐고 She can make a sentence really well and she is good at pronunciation and accent it would be cool if she make video in korean

[@kjlinger23]

Your dad is killing me oh man LOLOL "all of the power with god!" favourite part of the vlog by far!

[@madelineho358]

Can I just say that Dawn's graphic designs are always just spot on, like they work so well with Jenn's videos/aesthetics

[@samhilario]

Your dad giving himself a pep talk during that game of Jenga was everything! :')

[@theswitchgirll]

Your dad is literally the vitamin of each vlog 😂

[@shafirasalsiah8861]

I really don't know how to stop looking at your mother!!! She is soooo beautiful😍😍😍😍

[@zjehleen]

"all of the pOWER WITH GOD"

[@millasorensson]

your dad is SO precious when hes playing jenga I love it

[@wfberrychantillycake]

I love how you are so close with your family As a Korean myself, I'm kind of having a difficult time connecting with my parents, especially with my mom since I often find that their expectations for me as a high school student conflict with my own, but your vlogs and the clips that you include of your family gives me hope that I will be able to mend my relationships with my parents over time :)

[@ellentran96]

ooh예영 No one will love us like our parents. I’m also trying to mend things with mine. We can do!! *fighting!

[@JustJay]

Your dad was adorable when you guys were playing Jenga. Haha. Love it!

[@BeautiFuFu]

JustJay right! He’s so adorable! 😄

[@angeldoan03]

I don't know why, but i just love hearing Jenn speak korean

[@SHZAISLISTENING]

same! Her voice and accent just sounds really nice

[@imnassa]

I finally watched this video and a few of your other ones because I've been so busy, but man, you grew SO MUCH. The amount of self growth and positivity you try your best to incorporate into your life is inspiring. I love how you're becoming more vulnerable irl and online. It's refreshing and I waited so long (I'm an og fan) to see you disclose more about yourself. I love getting to hear about your thoughts, family, life, friends, and what you're up to. I love how you're showing more of Korean culture. I love how you let us know that you are too filled with depressing thoughts and are going to therapy and are trying many ways of bettering yourself while learning that your present self deserves love too. It's just a really positive pace you're at which I admire, and you don't say "no negative vibes," since it's a part of life. I know sharing more about yourself is definitely hard cause it is an online community, but I'm so happy. I waited years for this LOL. Can you make a video about what exercises you do? And your relationship with your parents? I also grew up with my mom who prefers to speak her native language so sometimes it's hard because we're different culturally and generationally. Also, I'm SO happy Ben does all the Korean traditions with you (in other videos). It's always nerve wracking to date someone non-Asian because they might find your food and culture traditions weird, so it's really cool to see Ben accepting and enjoying it. Like, I don't want to congratulate him for something he should do, but I am acknowledging that it is really nice (: Continue to be yourself! I wish I was one of your squad girls lol Stephanie seems amazing and the coasters she made you is such a unique and thoughtful gift.

[@lebasi529]

You and Ben should do a cooking episode since he makes really great meals and you always have the best Korean foods! :)

[@jamiegoodson3365]

Your mom has the most radiant smile Jen! (Just like you)

[@datcat1981]

Jenn! I remember a while ago you said you were thinking of going vegan well there's this amazing Korean lady on Instagram who goes by 'The Korean Vegan' and she veganises traditional Korean dishes, they always look so good and the best part is they're all vegan. She's awesome you should check her out for ideas!

[@siamesegirlmrb]

i've followed you since you were in college (i'm now in college! haha) and it's amazing seeing you go from not being able to communicate with your parents in korean and now being so much more confident :')

[@Alyssaleeeeeeee]

This vlog was beautiful and showed so much of your life and you made it look effortless even though it was really a lot of content! It was really relaxing and made me almost tear up a little to see such a clear reflection of my family and our rituals at New Years. Your mom and dad are so similar to mine. It's lovely to see someone whose family and culture reflect mine and to see it being celebrated. Thank you!

[@Alyssaleeeeeeee]

Other fave moments: slipper dance (something I could totally imagine myself doing in front of a mirror) and the supercut of underwear

[@athenaowl7261]

"I'm engineer" 😂😂 love it

[@SK-fy8dl]

Please show more Korean cooking in your vids, or any kind of cooking. It inspires me to cook. Your vlogs in general are very motivating 💪

[@ipsilonia]

favorite parts of the vlog: jenn's dad filled with so much glee during that intense jenga session and jenn holding up random underwear at goodwill. too good :)

[@Rareisbeautiful]

I love how thankful you are.

[@glezcoronado1038]

your dad playing jenga is the cutest ever

[@kkz201]

hey jenn, that leather diamond on the backpack is traditionally used to attach gear to the bag. i believe some manufacturers kept it as an homage to the traditional look

[@atjulie]

These vids always make me feel motivated to be productive 💛

[@NissaRyan]

omg your dad during jenga i can't hahaha

[@lilytran1764]

It’s so lovely seeing Ben get so into your culture! I only hope my future fiancé will be just as enthusiastic.💕

[@PogLaug]

Hi Jenn, I love it when you speak Korean. It would be nice to hear it more often.

[@NR-jp8ee]

hi jenn :) watching as an asian in an interracial relationship i’m curious as to whether there’s a cultural barrier between ben and your family/ you? especially in terms of language

[@parallelProgram]

I was wondering this as well!

[@pictureworkmemory]

Jenn, can you do a What's In My Closet video (like your entire collection), and how you keep things organized and how you weed out the clothing you no longer wear?😊

[@toos__day]

“It’s a fuckin Wednesday at 11am!” LOL @ Ben’s frustrations. I’m also in such adoration that he also participated with your family game day, he really really loves you and your family :’)

[@ZoeLsempiternal]

You and Sophia need to do a cooking video together! All of the Korean food you guys make looks SO GOOD!

[@catherinenguyen2439]

Hi Jenn, love the video! That "Logo" on your backpack is called a lash tab. You can use it as a handy way to latch things onto your backpack, like a pair of shoes. I like to attach a carabiner onto my lash tab and then attach a water bottle/hat onto that. It's pretty handy!

[@azukera2952]

Oh wow thank you! TIL lash tab. I always wonder but forget to google hahah.

[@HeyCosby]

Okay your family is the cutest! “I’m an engineer! I’m an engineer!” Had my dyyying 😂

[@tazzir2987]

I'm crying over how lit your dad was during jenga 😂😂 your family is adorable 💕

[@naivves]

I definitely benefit from having parents who will clean while visiting too! Maintaining a clean space is tough when you're depressed but it was really nice having my mom help me with that. The last time my mom drove me back to school she stayed with me for a day to tidy up. :)

[@tvnet222]

"I'm Engineer" LOL classic.

[@lifewitheves8951]

hahah your dad is the cutest "I am an engineer" lmao

[@beatriz894]

Hi Jenn! I'd love to watch a video about 'working for yourself' 'working at home' like how to stay organized and why to choose this path over a traditional carreer, stuff like that... Love your videos, thanks from Brazil!

[@seetheseaa]

Hey Jenn, just wondering, in terms of sustainability, why you shop at H&M, Zara, etc...when you could be putting your money into higher quality fashion items? I'm also curious about the factory you use to produce Eggie...are the workers compensated with fair, living wages?

[@JasmineMichelle]

I've been thinking about this too! I try to be as ethical as possible when shopping and I love some of the Eggie stuff but have been waiting to hear anything about the factory and production before I purchase

[@paprikaJiaYou]

your dad is like the jenga HYPE MAN 😂 his commentary made my pulse quicken i swear

[@jayashrishobna]

Wow, that was such a relaxing 18 minutes before my exam tomorrow :-)

[@2hearts1seoul]

I love how you and your fam celebrate the New Year! And that 떡국 looks soooo gooood!

[@rachelhopkins8373]

I’ve been a subscriber for years and you never really had bad skin, as far as I’ve known, but your skin now is absolutely glowing wow!!

[@vvannnnn]

Hi jenn!!! ..the "logo" on your new backpack is a called a lash tab or pig snout! The other brand made it for their backpacks for the purpose of holding other things that dont fit or for easy access items (a fold up jacket, waterbottle, keys, etc..) so if your little backpack's logo goes through to one side, you can hang stuff from it .. just wanted to share it .. not sure if its of interest but sharing is caring .. loveeeee your videos!! ^.^

[@pstt10]

So excited for the first Jennuary!! 2018 will be smashing xx

[@emig1195]

When you know a bit of korean from kdrama, and can finally put it to good use (i.e. listening and understanding a bit of Jenn's video without the need of CC). Lots of love to you, Ben, and your family

[@margheritaarnoldo7748]

I can't express to you enough how much you bright my life,and I know this is crazy because we never met and I don' really know you, but Jenn I have never seen a more genuine special person as you, I think we would get along so well. I trully adore you,hope you have a wonderfull year and life,you deserve it so much!

[@janetbreckenridge3731]

Quite a Jenn-packed month during Jenn-uary!

[@둠치타]

Ben 새해라고 같이 세배하는거ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ 귀여워요!!ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ

[@anikellermann2338]

The shelves you have on your desk are so cute! You should do a desk/office tour.

[@ayotungshangnao3472]

You inspire me alot. I've watch most of your video and it was so much fun to watch. You are very lucky to have such a caring and supportive husband.

[@ilovetaengerines]

why does jenn speaking korean make me so emotional? haha she's cute

[@DeliaX]

ahaha i loved this so much ! so therapeutic to watch you clean and cook

[@brendapoon9261]

[@say_qis]

It would be so cool if you did Korean recipe videos! Also the thumbnail for this is adorable!

[@annawaiq6360]

These monthly vlogs are my favorite. I always keep them until I have a nice cup of coffee and Lunch for my 1sr break of the day

[@meganleach8661]

Seeing you with your family warms my heart. They seem like such amazing people.

[@cacayaya2079]

[@paaoopaaoo]

Girl yes my mom loves to help me clean after myself whenever visiting, and she always stresses to let in the light with open windows. Speaking my language Jenn, happy new year as well 💕💃🏻🎊

[@suqui782]

Please do an updated skin care routine. (Not sponsored if possible ) I love your videos and the thumbnail is perfect 👌🏻😍

[@imjennim]

My skincare routine is exactly the same as my sponsored one (ie. Get Unready With Me).

[@hannahatkinson1071]

[@sophiachang]

Watching you clean made me want to clean. so satisfying 😌

[@mehrongmaknae]

I laughed so much at the clips of you holding up all the underwear at the outlet. HAHA. I loved the vlog as always!! Thank you for working so hard on your content Jenn!

[@sarahyoon9060]

"i am engineer....i am engineer" oh my gosh your dad is so funny XD

[@vanshexD]

This was by far one of the best vlogs of yours! I laughed at so many random points lol Cheeki playing at the back, your dad, your comment on pilates, your korean, your little dance after the clean up lol

[@alovel2001]

젠님 한국어하시는거 첨봐요 +_+.. 만약 한국어 메이크업 튜토리얼이 가능하실 정도면.. 한번 꼭 보고싶어요 ㅎㅎ

[@zaraxael1778]

Having breakfast and watching youtube (as usual) and as I open my sub box I see that you uploaded a vlog! aaaaah, it's gonna be a good day! I just love your videos so much

[@ItsSkyLOL]

When I saw that this video is 19min long I screamed a little inside. YASSS

[@lucerorojas2063]

Yes omg, Mexican moms are the exact same way with cleaning!! I feel like my mom is more keen to clean my brothers’ houses more so than anything haha 🙄🙄🙄

[@elaineserenalim1631]
