on adulting beyond the sea (2023, video essay)
⋆ ˚。⋆୨♡୧⋆ ˚。⋆
[this video was filmed for my student exchange video essay in 2023, re-recorded]
When I was about to end the studying abroad series, I came across this video that I made mid-semester to my advisor. I once, fell in love with the script and cinematic point of view, and decided to post it online one day. But as time went by, this video was buried under the archive and remained a submission for my student exchange report. This time, I dedicated myself to relive this video by doing the voiceover properly, enhancing the script, and publishing it on this platform.
I did not change the point of the reflection essay at all (just the wording) because I want to show the authenticity of my feeling back then. Two years older me today am so proud!

miseries before leaving korea for good: lost my wallet, locked inside an ATM, sticker tag lost
มุมมอง 163หลายเดือนก่อน
⋆ ˚。⋆୨♡୧⋆ ˚。⋆ [this video was filmed back in summer 2023] It was hard to explain. But, yes, I lost my wallet and it’s nowhere to be found until today. The week when I lost it, I was in so much pain. I felt like the unluckiest student in the world. However, looking back at these clips again when I am now 2 years older, I felt more at ease and peace. I don’t feel any big negative emotion for the ...

⋆ ˚。⋆୨♡୧⋆ ˚。⋆ [this video was filmed back in summer 2023] After debating whether to visit an amusement park in Korea or not, we finally went all-in to visit Lotte World Seoul just two days before our departure to Indonesia. We did not rent a school uniform because we just want to enjoy the ride. This is actually a dream-come-true moment for me although the park was crowded since it was on the w...
🇰🇷pohang & paju solo travel! one day trip around south korea
มุมมอง 523 หลายเดือนก่อน
⋆ ˚。⋆୨♡୧⋆ ˚。⋆ [this video was filmed back in summer 2023] I never agreed on a solo trip, until watched my roommate embark on a journey to explore bits of South Korea that were hidden not to be missed. Encouraged by the limited time that I had left for my exchange journey, I decided to do two trips alone: one is near Busan (Pohang) and the other is almost 2 hours away from Seoul and a few kilome...

Even though it’s not as easy as it looks, watching them being happy and enjoying their trip makes the whole family trip more rewarding. We do think that 5 days to explore Jeju and Seoul is not enough! There are lots of awesome places you can de...

⋆ ˚。⋆୨♡୧⋆ ˚。⋆ [this video was filmed back in June 2023] Saying goodbye to the city I dreamed of going to when I was a child and managed to live in for a few months is tough. I never knew that the reverse culture psychology is already happening when I bid goodbyes to my friends. As I went to places I have been before in Busan for the last time, I wish I could stop the time. Alas, I also learned ...

⋆ ˚。⋆୨♡୧⋆ ˚。⋆ [this video was filmed back in June 2023] I got emotional while editing this video. Little bits of tears are for the hard work I’ve done (and managed to document???) for the exams and it’s totally worth it. I found more ambition to stay productive in general thanks to the studying environment in Korea (but you have to know your limit too!). A big part of why this particular video ...

But I flipped that perception when I started to experience what I can do at night when I was in South Korea. Here, I even challenged myself to stay awake for 24 hours and cram in the library as much as I can! The result and the process were… quite obvious? but hopefully you ca...

Therefore, this trip might seem spontaneous, contrary to my usual super-planned trip, and I enjoyed it so much! Trips where ...

Filming this kind of film is incredibly hard as it’s my first time trying not to get attached to document everything. Fraly soean one or two clips were not taken at the same ...

Since we were exchange students with no children who spoke the same language as us back then, we planned a 2d1n trip to Daegu with our friends and went on with another 4d3n in Seoul. While our Daegu trip was organized by our friend (thank you ce Michelle and others!), the Seoul itineraries are purely our research. ...

⋆ ˚。⋆୨♡୧⋆ ˚。⋆ It is so scary to finally be able to write another message I have to fill in, in which I have long been gone. The clips have become more dusted and I felt a kind of guilt-grinding if I didn’t do anything with them. For the nth time, I will not blame my final year of university that hindering me from editing (though I must agree, I was busy with stuff). But as I reached the months ...

Long time no see! This part of the video is my last chance to see the cherry blossoms because they only last for a week or two. I did go to a beautiful city named Gyeongju with the initial urge from my roommate, Petra. The rest of the days feel so typical of me going to uni and sometimes going out alone. Though I still haven’t recovered from my last low point, I believe making every moment spec...
