The NIGHTLIFE in SEOUL KOREA is INSANE! 🇰🇷(Hongdae 홍대)

Today we visit South Korea’s busiest street, Hongdae! This neighborhood is known for its youthful ambience, with shops selling everything from clothing, cosmetics to books, as well as unique cafes and restaurants. The streets are also filled with performers, arcades and streetfood, so spending a day here is quite entertaining!

Great video, amazing view, delicious food and interesting explanation. I like food South Korea is Tteokbokki, Jjampong, Bibimbap, Bulgogi, Samgyetang, Yangnyeom Tongdak, Japchae, Sannakji, Pajeon and Kimchi. I like tourist place in South Korea is Jeju, Nami, Seongsan Ilchulbong, Seoraksan, Hallasan, Hamdeok, Jeongbang, Seopjikoji, Hyeopjae, Jusangjeollidae, Suncheon Bay, Bukhansan, Manjanggul, Carribean Bay, Cheonjeyeon, Osulloc, Halla, Gwangalli, Seorak, Taebaeksan, Jangsan, Odae and Udo. I not born in South Korea and I not South Korea people, but I know food and nice places in South Korea. Oh yeah, I know serial film 49 DAYS from South Korea and I know this song from "NAM GYU RI - LIGHTLESS WINDOWS", "MAYA - AZALEA" and "HONG GIL DONG - PARK WAN KYU FATE" this song very good. So, my score for South Korea is 9.5/10. Just try asking South Korea, whether what I mentioned really exists in the South Korea or not. Greetings and stay healthy.

[@JanandAnn]

Thanks for this :)

[@lululovelovelove]

Loved the vid ❤️ and you guys are just as cute as well 😊

[@Shadown3ko]

you guys left at 7pm? that's soo early ... didn't show how hongdae is during the weekend nights and what it's really famous for. The night-life is really crazy-fun. =))

[@enceladus9502]

Hongdae st. is now famous for cafes and clubs but it is actually where all the young artists and musicians of Korea gather. There are many legendary live houses where k pop was born. U should not miss it.

Welcome to Korea. Hongdai is near my home but for me it's more fun to watch it through your video than going there.

Awesome! Thank you! 😊

[@jostalking]

What a great video!!! What lens and camera are you vlogging with in the first shot? Love that its both wide and you have a really nice depth of field.

[@JanandAnn]

Thank you so much! And our main vlog camera/lens is a Sony a7c with Tamron 17-28 f2.8 lens ☺️

[@jostalking]

@@JanandAnn are you using a selfie stick with the camera for vlogging or is it free hand? its so nice and wide

[@JanandAnn]

@@jostalking i do use a joby tripod but most of the time its freehand since my lens is wide enough :)

Hi! Could you please share your experience going back to the Philippines from SK? I think you mentioned before that you guys have yet to get your second dose... Did you have to quarantine for 5 days even after a negative antigen result, or is it only for those who test positive? Thank you in advance 🙏 (and were you guys in Boracay Dec 2? 😄)

[@JanandAnn]

Hi we’re fully vaccinated so going back to the Philippines was easy. No quarantine or rtpcr needed. :) and yes we were lol

There you go

[@JanandAnn]

☺️

[@labiker]

Title is a bit misleading. When I saw "Nightlife", I was expecting you guys to go club hopping, but the video is just about the street life. Not that I mind, it's doubtful I'll ever go to Korea again, so seeing what you are experiencing is interesting.

[@JanandAnn]

Nightlife doesnt automatically mean clubbing. Nightlife is usually entertainment at night and korea has alot of those outside of clubbing ☺️ and glad you still enjoyed it! Thanks for watching

[@arnelamet]

@@JanandAnn agree the title is misleading. Nice video, but has nothing to do with nightlife. ‘nightlife is a collective term for entertainment that is available and generally more popular from the late evening into the early hours of the morning. It includes pubs, bars, nightclubs, parties, live music, concerts, cabarets, theatre, cinemas, and shows.’

[@hanzdownsports]

Did someone you know have the camera while you ate with your brother and had the camera view across the way from your table? I would be afraid someone steals the camera while I’m eating

[@JanandAnn]

Oh no it was just on a tripod 😅 it doesnt really bother us as long as the camera isnt too far from us i dont think anyone would just take it. ☺️

[@TM-li7bl]

Wow, $9- for two donuts 😰😨 not cheap that’s for sure!!
