Type of Foreigners KOREANS would like?

[@jan-michele3546]

My daughter went to Korean school and when they heard her speak Korean, the elders were very taken in by her. They loved working with her when it came to traditional korean inki and brush writing. The elderly women would argue with each other on who was going to be her teacher for the day. When she went in to be tested in her language skills, she thought she was a beginner but she tested as an advanced student, Where did she learn the language? She learned from dramas and she learned Hangul writing from her Tae kwon do Masters and their parents. She is a 3rd degree black belt, working on becoming a master herself.

You nailed it. My husband and I were in South Korea in November. We had a private tour, so it was just us and a guide. We just happened to visit a small town having a festival and were encouraged to dress in hanbok. My husband ended up dressed as a general. We were the only non-Koreans there and people were extremely welcoming. We only ate at Korean restaurants where the guide ordered for us. We tried everything. On a boat trip around Jeju Island a Korean woman came up to us and asked for my camera, so she could take a picture of us. She did a great job. Two weeks after leaving South Korean my husband had a massive heart attack and died instantly. It was a traumatic event as I did CPR, trying to save him while the paramedics were on their way. While looking for a picture for the funeral service I came across the picture the woman had taken. It showed my husband as I will always remember him. He had loved our trip and was making plans to go back to see the cherry trees in bloom, and try other Korean food. The photo video of his life included many pictures of him taken in South Korea.

I lived in Seoul for a few months in 1997-1998, playing with a singer named Lee Seung Hwan. We did a tour, which was actually in Seoul except for one or two shows. I really enjoyed meeting the Korean people. I guess that would be "old" music today. I loved the food. Seung Hwan and our other hosts would take us to American restaurants at first, but we told them we always ate Korean food when we were out on our own, they started to take us to Korean restaurants that they liked. I think it is exactly as you said--that they were afraid we would not like Korean food. But most Americans from larger cities are familiar with all types of Asian food, and enjoy eating the authentic versions when traveling!! Good luck with your channel.

I have been married to a beautiful Korean lady for 48 years and even lived in Korea for 5 years. I enjoy good Gugak (Song So-hee in particular) and Trot music. While I can't eat the strong spicy food there is plenty I like. Before I ever went to Korea for the first time I studied the history and traditions and also the concepts and ideas of Confucianism because I was informed that if you understand that I would understand much about Korean society.

[@zz8997]

@@earphbound720 It was wonderful. I loved every minute, and I will go back, when I get the chance. The people were unfailingly welcoming and kind as I wandered Seoul and Busan. I attended many performances; visited museums, markets, and historical sites; had amazing food everywhere I went; and felt completely comfortable traveling as a solo older woman. There is so much more to see and do--so much more history and culture to explore. Two weeks was too little time to do more than scratch the surface, but it was plenty of time for me to fall deeply in love with Korea.

New to your channel! Congrats on the 100k subscribers! I think 1) respecting your elders and 2) respecting the culture of the country you're visiting should be common courtesy. I'd love to try some Korean food when I visit, but as much as I like a little spice, I can't handle the real spicy food. I love Korea, when I watch any historical dramas of the Joseon Dynasty or early 1920s-1930s, I always research later because I want to understand how much of the drama was based on true historical facts and this way I learn more about the history of your country. I love learning about other cultures, languages and food and comparing to see the similarities as well as the differences in our cultures.

[@linda.s.gislad]

I agree with you on how one should always show respect to elders...but want to add that respect should always be shown to others, no matter the age. And I am the same as you, I love researching historical facts while watching historical dramas. I feel immensely thankful for the chance to get a window to other contries traditions and history via the internet. (When I was growing up (I am 67), one had to go to the library to search from the limited supply of books on various matters. BTW, I love kimchi, korean chicken and more.....hmmm, and mageolli ☺

I'm Greek American living in Greece, though I've gotten used to the metric system, I'll say google helped especially at converting recipes. You can search anything...my phone had a problem and I found the answer online. I bought a bread maker here that had various languages but didn't have English, so I searched and found the English instruction manual. Going to the library was fun because I loved reading, but of course had limits.

Thank you for this video. I started taking Korean language classes about six months ago. I've got a long way to go before I can comfortably hold a back and forth conversation. But it's comforting to hear that most Koreans would appreciate the effort. I studied French in highschool and college. But when I took a trip to France about ten years ago, most Parisians refused to speak French back to me when they figured out I was American (when I was translating information to English for my traveling companion). I'm not fluent, but I know enough to get around as a tourist. And my reading comprehension is decent. People outside of the cities were a lot nicer and complimented me. Still, it kind of soured my experience after I had made so much effort to be a respectful tourist.

Finally an analysis that sounds like it is grounded in facts and in the recognition of complexity. Situations are never as simple to explain as many people make them. Nothing is simply black or white. I feel I now have a valuable understanding of what is going on in South Korea. I also learnt new terms and something new about the other cities in the world you mention for comparisons and clarifications. Looking forward to watching more of your videos.

I never knew about 'iced' amercano until I watched Korean tv shows!

[@catladynikki2024]

Same! I noticed Korean KZbinrs drink and K-drama shows on Netflix often. I don’t know if americano is good. Americano exists in Starbucks in my home Arizona.

[@AlexGBroughton]

This is so interesting! I’m learning Korean right now, but I’m also REALLY keen to learn all about the culture, history and traditions and customs. Watching this video makes me feel like I’m already on this path of learning!

It's a little ironic that Koreans like people who eat well but also likes people who are really skinny.

[@ThizisDanny]

eating well is not really related to the physical appearance of someone. But I do agree the pressure to be ‘skinny’ is quite real here

[@Krystal109]

A lot of asians also have higher metabolisms so its less of an issue but it does pose a shitty social standard for those that are less fortunate and dont have high metabolisms.

[@kittiefloyd]

@@ThizisDanny It just doesn't make sense at all.

[@ThizisDanny]

My point was eating well does not mean eating a lot or overeating. It’s more like enjoying the food. And the pressure of losing weight is more on ourselves? people won’t tell me to lose weight but I somehow want to. I think these days it’s a like different. People don’t like ‘skinny’ people but more ‘fit’ people..

[@kittiefloyd]

@@ThizisDanny ""people won't tell you to lose weight"" i find that hard to believe, but okay. You know some things better than i do, so i'll just leave this at that

[@lizzyanthus1]

I am so happy I found your channel! I've subscribed. I am a huge fan of K-dramas, and have always been impressed with the culture, especially the respect that is shown. I am 72 and wished I had a better memory, so I could learn more of the language, while watching the shows. I do recognize many phrases when they are spoken though, which makes me happy. Thank you for having such a wonderful channel, especially for K-drama lovers like myself.

No.6 is very accurate. Want to get noticed by your favorite artists, particularly the male idols, at a concert/fanmeet? Wear a KFA jersey. It's worked every time.
