Why I'm Living Two Lives as a Vegetable Seller and Runway Model

Bryan lives two very different lives. By sunrise, he works as a vegetable seller, but by sunset he struts the catwalk as a fashion model. How does he juggle these two jobs? And if he had to, which one would he give up?

This man was raised well with good principles. A job is a job no matter what name you want to call it.

[@dianaahakim2001]

That’s what I always say! A job is a job, if it is honest and you don’t steal or do crime then there should not be a problem with the job

[@astrodomelife1819]

even prostitute?

[@garrytan9521]

Coincidentally, I came across this KZbin video on this young energetic man. It is also encouraging to see him working as a vegetable seller cum supplier, as well as diligently as a fashion model. For him there should be absolutely no embarrassment or bad feelings about being a vegetable seller at all. He works decently and honourably with his own proper honest incomes from these two respected jobs, very good❤🎉. You are an exemplary man to many people ❤🎉. Keep it up,….young man ❤🎉😂! Wishing and blessing him all the best of lucks in life ❤🎉😂.

For all non Singaporeans out there, running a family business is a big deal in Singapore. His family is definitely well off.

[@auntiegay9225]

his mom was literally a model, im pretty sure everyone could tell hes wealthy, also rednecks literally wont look this white and tall

[@huiyi4551]

He is well off, and he works his ass off, kudos to him. A lot of young people couldn’t bear to go through such a physically challenging job, especially if they’re from well off families

There’s really nothing to be ashamed of being a vegetable seller. Some of them make good money than some dead end office jobs. Respect to you bro.

So there's something to be ashamed of if you're working in an office job? 🤔

[@ronahemara-wahanui2383]

Nothing wrong with honest work Anyone who looks down on that has an issue they need to go sort

[@elizabethlim392]

I like his attitude. No shame in hard , honest work. He has got the right values in life.

[@myeongwol]

One of the advantage of him being a vegetable seller is it can train him to have a good physique, which is sought after in modelling I guess... Kudos to him for being passionate on both jobs, and wish his dream comes true one day

[@sorcerersupreme4300]

I can relate to it, i work as a barman, carrying tons of boxes of wines, cases of beers, spirits, soft drinks, sodas, juices, beer barrels, and it helped me a lot to maintain my body physique

[@libra15tiger15]

Can eat more vegetables good for skin and looks.

[@destk9658]

I don't know if he realised it when he says, "he chose family business," which was the wise/correct decision. You can sell vegetables until the day you die. But you can only model for a limited number of years (if you're lucky). 😃👍🏻👏🏻

[@shiroreos]

I think it is rather admirable that he works two completely different jobs. It shows how determined and hardworking you are. Vegetable seller or not, a job is a job and I even think vegetable seller is a hard as well as an important job. Kudos to this guy!

[@languishinga7368]

Down to earth and sensible guy. We need more of you.

[@internationalsunshine]

Selling vegetables is a very respectable job, without you a lot of people will be hungry and lack nutrition. It also a tough job, a young man willingly take over this business shows you are very responsible. Kudos to you.

[@lovarreanne]

When people look down on others, it reflects more about them being ignorant, superficial and narrow-minded, than the ones that were being looked down on. Making an honest living with your own gift and strengths is something to be admired.

[@CrossbredmiMiyang]

His singlish accent is so authentic and it really warm my heart as a fellow Singaporean. As what he said , I care less of what others thought about our singlish as they could insult or mock us but still cannot change the fact that singlish and Kiasu is our way of life and beliefs, something that tie all native Singaporeans together. Majulah Singapura 🇸🇬 happy birthday to every true bred Singaporeans

[@catmatism]

Singlish is not very easily understood by foreigners. LKY didn't like it. So there is nothing to be proud even though I am heavy in my Singlish accent

[@x.t.5221]

just a question for you though, why must it be easily understood by foreigners since Singlish is mostly used in situations involving ppl who understand? many people code switch and use more formal English when the occasion calls for it@@catmatism

[@imonthenextlevel1724]

I thought singaporean's english accent is just a stereotype like when uncle roger talks to his videos. So singaporeans really talk like that?

[@CrossbredmiMiyang]

@@imonthenextlevel1724 nah … we speak formally while interacting with others in business or any conferences interracial group . However despite some formal occasions we use proper grammar and pronunciation , still our tune , our accent and melody could tell the regional differences & where we are from . Only among our communities in private gatherings or meetings, most of us feel at ease and sense of relaxation when we communicate in Singlish , IT’s barrier no more but feel connected especially during the days when I lived and work in HK and SH the connections we Singapore got when meet together to chilling.

[@CrossbredmiMiyang]

@@catmatism singlish is not for foreigners to understand and we don’t expect them too as we prefer to keep it among ourselves , singlish is a tool to connect with our own country mates . You or LKY doesn’t like singlish its you and his father and son problem and ain’t mine , I’m sure u doesn’t like how i replied you but it don’t bother me either. Whenever you have a chance to work and lived abroad long enough , someday you will treasure someone next to you with a singlish accent and immediately you felt home . For now go back to your bedroom to do your usual routine TITOK dancing .

[@armymoaengenecarat5955]

Having a family business in Singapore is a big deal. And him being a 3rd generation makes this even better. Their business probably is a big thing. And despite this, he's still humble ❤

[@trangoilatrang399]

Solid guy 👏👏

[@nineplustentwentyone26]

His mindset is admirable. I love his views towards life and his family business. He has a beautiful soul

[@freiyakd]

it takes a secure and hardworking mindset to keep up these two polar opposite jobs. good things come to those who are doing their best at life, i’m sure he’ll be walking runways in europe in no time 😢

[@sombrance]

Respect to this guy. Hope he makes it!

[@rivvie2008]

This guy is so confident. And his priorities are in the right place. Respect!

[@ehsaibuay]

I respect u Bryan. Breaking the norm, handling the business and hustling as a model at the same time. Saying its not easy is an understatement. Gd luck and hope u get ur dream catwalk in Europe👍

[@pumpkinpumpkin7868]

your story are similar as me. i quit my job and make a vegetable business and doing model too. i was embarrassed with my business becuz of peoples look at me but now i feel the same as you if people can not accept you then cut them off.

[@sdqsdq6274]

modeling is a short term job , you heard of the term price of taogei went down ? something you cant do once age catch up ....

[@Jackslav]

i believe you are a veggie seller, i dont believe you have the looks of a model.

[@SylviaChanDot]

Really admire Bryan being so down to earth and hardworking. I pray your wish to model for fashion week will come true. China 陆仙人from a rural village did it. You can too, rooting for you! 😊

[@Just4AZ1]

What a great guy. Well grounded and very likable. Modeling life is fleeting. Having a backup plan is essential. I wish him the best.

[@momma_seb8236]

I admire this young man's dedication to his jobs. And the fact that the glitz and glamour of the modelling world doesn't blind his perspective of life, and how he sees himself is just so wonderful.😍

[@aidz-pn5oe]

Admire you! Wish more boys and men are like you. Family legacy, don't do half assed jobs, be committed, passionate and work hard! Thank you for giving me hope.

[@eris06]

So humble and admirable. You have pride in both jobs. A lot of millennials or people in the entertainment industry can be quite cocky, vain and even fake. But you are so honest and respectful. I hope many Singaporeans learn from you and be open as well. What you are doing going back and forth in between two different worlds, is not easy at all. All the best Bryan and thank you for sharing and being authentic.

[@sepg5084]

Generalizing millennials, nice 👍

[@peilingtan8544]

You are a mature, hardworking person. Both jobs are dignified and you should be proud of what you are good at. 😊 Respect!

[@weekeat3726]

So true. Not one single person out there should dictate who you are by your choice of anything in life. You are who you are. You be who you are that you choose to be. Ultimately is you yourself that matters the most. You and your heart alone. No one else. Keep it up.

[@Scarlettifity]

Literally what a role model! Hardworker and comfortable in their own skin. I only hope for him to get better opportunity and his family business to thrive!!!

[@stephenwonghongweng4298]

Job is a job. Selling vegetables is a honest and good long term prospect. On another note life in Singapore is fvcking tough! It takes money and hard work to keep up all that glitz and glamour.

[@qqyytlga9649]

So respectable. Seems like he has his own style. I really hope he shines and achieve his dream to campaign for big brands. We are rooting for you!

Recently I’ve been feeling like this too I’m an aspiring designer and am going to school. Everyone around me has some job correlated to stores or sewing , meanwhile I work at a restaurant I was always so ashamed to say it or try to dodge the question but recently I realized it’s really doesn’t matter

[@jacquuelinesimpson191]

Just remember ever job is respectable.. you are not doing a crime...best of luck!!!

[@peachesofjake]

I also worked at restaurant and washing dishes also did delivery and catering, while most of my classmates work at fashion stores etc. Eventually I got a job at a fashion brand and learned everything I needed to learn. Don't feel down, keep chasing your dream, when an opportunity arises apply to that fashion job even if it's not a design job. Just to get your foot in the door is a starting point and believe me it will open the doors for you.

[@suzit5084]

He is down to earth and has apassion for whatever job he is doing!😍 Bravo! The photos look fantastic!
