White Guy Switches from Fluent Korean to Chinese, Shocks Locals

What's going on guys? Victor here.
I'm still in Seoul, South Korea, where I'm visiting local Chinese restaurants. I'm having so much fun talking to the staff and trying to surprise them, as well as the local patrons with my Chinese and Korean language skills, and today was no exception!
The people working at this place were actually native Chinese speakers, and they were shocked to find out I was fluent in BOTH Korean and Chinese. And I got some stares from the locals as well.
The food was a bit too spicy, like a Sichuan hot pot but overall it was a really nice place. Check out the video and let me know whether you'd like to go there when you're in Seoul!

Lol, that shock, u réálly like to shock people huh, réálly impressive, now, i wonder if u ever come to my country, The Netherlands, how fast u learn my language huh, lol.

[@nathanespinoza5265]

yeah I want to learn new languages like Punjabi and Spanish fluently

[@MOON_963]

You are really amazing Victor. I am in awe. I can only speak 3 language. And a little bit of Italian, Japanese and sanskrit. I really want to learn how to speak Italian, Japanese, sanskrit and French fluently.😁

[@Robespierre-lI]

Hahaha. Dude. You can't master any language in three months. Don't be silly. I also speak three languages, plus I've learned Cyrillic and Hanguel. Mastery is a high goal to reach. Most never get there.

[@arienlol]

I don't speak Korean nor Chinese but I can tell you speak really good in both lenguages. You are confortable speaking to them and make very interesting and organic conversation. Keep up the great work!!

[@VictorTalking]

Thank you so much 🙏💪

[@UnderWeekend]

You also don’t speak English

[@whfishridhe6106]

Ummm how would you know if he was really good if you don’t know how the languages sound yourself? 🤡

[@LexusFox]

@@whfishridhe6106 I’m not saying he does or doesn’t speak really good, BUT I 100% agree with your comment, I’ve seen non-spanish speakers tell others they sound “amazingly fluent” and honestly most of the time they sound pretty bad. There was this one youtuber who travelled to Mexico and was speaking spanish and so many comments were praising him not knowing his spanish was super broken and barely legible 💀

@@UnderWeekend I can confirm because I'm chinese (I come from Fuzhou down south in the Fujian Province)

[@mony6645]

There is many language KZbinrs these days but a lot of them you can tell are not that fluent they clearly know few phrases and tend to repeat words ...but you seem actually fluent and underrated I wish you luck

[@VictorTalking]

Thank you so much for saying that, I thought people can't distinguish. When someone calls me "(famous KZbinr name) 2" and compares me with other KZbinrs I don't know how to respond because sometimes those comparisons show that people have no clue about the actual level people have in those languages they speak... I'm really far from the place I wanna be at and very far from being perfect, but it makes me sad when people just equalize everyone on the basis of the video title, rather than the content. Beginners in the language are equalized with advanced speakers in most cases, people have no clue who has what level... It's really sad to see.

[@mony6645]

@@VictorTalking keep trying and you will sure make it. .. I guess because a lot of viewers know one language since I speak Arabic and English I could tell the difference . I hope others notice that as well

[@kiwoo69]

@@VictorTalking Most native speakers aren't perfect either, portuguese is a good example where native speakers don't use the proper grammatically correct tense in the majority of cases. I use this as a guide to learning a language, write down the things you say on a day to day basis. Just general conversation and learn those words and sentences first, then it's just matter of expanding your vocab, surround yourself with the language as much as possible every day too. Also, very important, don't be concerned with making mistakes, watch shows in the language on the internet, preferrably without subtitles, have a pen and paper at hand to note down words that keep popping up that you don't know. Then it's just practice. Thai is the next language I want to learn, after I've improved my Kanji.

[@stoned_tato9457]

this guy is a legend, he deserves more likes he does good content and honestly talking from experience learning languages is not easy especially maintaining it, i get confused and mix up all the languages i speak because of that but seriously this guy deserves more like

Hello Zet, yes, the program is the same for every language. The only thing that is different is a native teacher from my team. We have a team of teachers for all major languages. On top of the classes with a teacher, on weekends we have Weekly Brain Accelerator coaching where I guide clients step-by-step to teach them how to learn languages faster and accelerate the learning process.
