I'm so sorry your internship ended up being like this. As an American, I can tell you that that's unfortunately how many internships are in the US: employers looking for cheap/free labor (often from young people or foreigners) that they can exploit in exchange for giving the intern "experience" in the workforce. NYC is also a notoriously difficult city to live and work in. Many people romanticize it, and while it is a fun place to visit, it is difficult to have a decent living there. It's possible, just very difficult. Whether you get a new internship in New York or have to return to Korea, it's very impressive that you have made it as far as you have! You overcame many hardships that most people would not be able to handle. You are inspiring! Best of luck on your journey!
Exactly this. I hope it all works out! I will be there next week. I love visiting but would find it hard to live there. I hope you are enjoying the time and secured a job.
@@ChristineImogui struggle on 400 a month in INDIANA not even paying rent. i can’t imagine how she feels going ti NYC where the minimum wage is $16, and not even making enough for half the rent.
Paused watching just to say that you did a good job standing up for yourself. I also quit my job after wasting over a year. It was so toxic and a lot of unprofessional attitude coming from bosses that I could no longer endure being around. It made going to work and completing daily task difficult. I like how you voiced your concerns the way you did. We can all learn something from each other and that I did. : ) Edit after completing the vid: I hope your interviews went great and you got an offer. Merry Christmas 🎅
the "unsupervised" work is getting pretty common lately, especially for jobs that only has like a 1-5 people inside a company - they don't have the time to supervise your work so they just give you tasks in hopes you'll do it within the day or times you are supposed to work - which is pretty shitty if it's like a first job in a new country, and if you're promised a different work experience from your sponsor. REALLY REALLY PROUD of you for sticking up for yourself, it's hard to do that especially in the corporate world :(
So proud of you for bringing up these issues in a working environment. It can be frustrating and stressful but it is also important to advocate for yourself and I am glad you did this :)
As an introvert myself, I understand how hard it is to explain ourselves so I am so proud of you for standing up for yourself! I am sure everything will be fine soon, glad to see that you're able to still enjoy yourself with yummy food there. Merry Christmas and may you have a happier year ahead!
Girl you’re sooo strong for sticking through all this! Your internship boss and sponsor company are treating you so unfairly, you deserve better and honestly hearing back from 3/7 places so quickly is super impressive!! Cheering for you from Boston 🎉
I’m so proud of you for standing up for yourself and keeping your boundaries. It may feel like a struggle right now now but this experience will give you strength for the rest of your life.
항상 행복하시길 문제를 직면하고 그 문제를 해결하기 위해 노력하는 모습들이 정말~~ 정말 제게 너무 커다란 가르침으로 다가왔어요 회피성향이 강한 저는 … 그자리에서 모든걸 포기해버렸을 것 같은데.. 베이글 이 하나로도 일어날 수 있는 힘을 얻는 법을 배웠습니다 세상에는 무수한 이유들과 결과들이 있는데 그 이유와 결과들이 이욜님께 항상 다정하길 기도하겠습니다 영상 너무 잘봣어요!!
You’re literally one of the most courageous people I’ve ever seen! Even if you think this internship was a failure I believe you learnt many lessons a long the way. You’re such an inspiration to me to try many different experiences at my 20s please stay safe and positive and we all wish you the best of luck ❤

What you experienced is incredibly common in the US. It's extremely frustrating and emotionally draining. Thankfully, there are a lot of very good people in the US as well, you just have to find them through trial and error. The US is a country of extremes. Both extremely bad and extremely good. But when you find a company with good people you will actually feel so incredibly appreciated and supported. There is so much to experience in the US. The roller-coaster can be very difficult emotionally and mentally. But either way, whether you stay here or go back, you are incredibly strong! It takes a lot of courage and grit to do what you did. I hope these positive comments bring you comfort and motivation cause you're not alone in your suffering here in America ❤ wishing you positive experiences from now on.
I suddenly remembered that I also quit my job this year and I took the opportunity to discover in the places near my workplace. I also visited museums after leaving my job. It was comforting and nice while staring at those pieces after making a huge decision. While watching this video, I realized to prioritize my happiness and worth since we only live once. I do wish you happiness and comfort during this time as well to other subscribers ❤️
You were being so polite and these people shouldn't have the right to speak to you like that just bc they have more power. You deserve a job where the people appreciate you und want so teach you and not put you down and exploit you. I wish you the best. Greetings from Germany. ♥️
You did the right thing ending that first internship. I think they were taking advantage of you. I used to work in marketing and design and I wish I was still in touch with anyone from those days, maybe they would have had advice. The companies have closed or people moved on, unfortunately. I left myself because it’s a very demanding and stressful field. It’s very lucky that you got those interviews and I’ll be thinking of you and wishing you luck!! 🍀
Omg, I'm so sorry you had to experience that! In the US, start-up companies with few employees are very suspicious and not recommended, especially to foreigners. The company will take advantage of you because they don't have many resources. You did the right thing! And don't lose hope. The corporate culture you want to experience is attainable!
There is nothing to be ashamed of, you are doing the right thing. If this doesn’t work out, then it wasn’t meant to be. Stay true to yourself and do what you think it’s the right thing for YOU! ❤
You did a fantastic job! You stood up for yourself and decided not to be where you are not appreciated and lied to, it's not quitting but a big win! Fingers crossed for the new opportunities! And Merry Christmas 🎄
I fully admire your bravery in this circumstances. Given the timeline that you posted this video after a month of the incident, I hope this means you have secured new internship and kicking off new journey in NYC! All the best to you 🎉
I am sorry you had to go through this negative and frustrating experience, but I am also proud of how you stood up for yourself and handled things. It is sad to see companies exploiting their interns like this. I am happy to see that you have been able to get interviews at other companies, I pray you end up in a position that makes you happy and that you enjoy your time in New York! ❤
merry christmas eyol! i'm so proud of you for doing what you thought was best, and i look forward to seeing what you'll be doing next!! congrats on landing interviews and good luck with everything! you'll always have my support :)
Wow, sometimes the best plan is having no plan..! Your resilience and ability to adapt to such close-cut situations (finding a new job and place to live on short notice) is really admirable. Your journey hasn’t been easy, but I’m proud of you for sticking up for yourself as much as you could the whole way through. So even if the people around you don’t believe in you, believing in yourself will always take you far! Keep your head up and I wish you the best for your next steps 🍀🩷
I'm so sorry the first internship was like this, unfortunately this kind of situation is very common, but I'm so happy to know that you actually quit and that you have almost secured options, specially after all you went through to stay in ny. also, as a introvert myself, i just wanted to say that i understand so much of what you mentioned and give you a pat in the back for working all of this out and putting out what wasn't fair! i know you basically had no choice but to, but i also know its a hard situation and that requires courage. you did well! really hope everything worked out well!!
wishing you the bestest of luck!!! i also studied fashion merchandising in college and it was difficult finding a solid job after graduating! you got this
I’m happy you made this decision and stood up for yourself. I hope you find something better whether it’s in New York or Korea. Sending positive vibes!
i too quit my internship in October after one year of working. everything was fine, pay was good too but it was taking a lot of my time which i could have invested towards a much productive thing. also the unsupervised hours are actually very common here in India too. i taught myself all the things in that internship and did all the work, but my supervisor took all the credit for my work. it was frustrating and discouraging. everyone thought i was crazy when i was quitting but i had to do it. my family supported me in my decision too which i am super grateful for. hence i came back to my home and now i am preparing for my final exams Which i need to qualify to become the professional. hope all goes well. but yes you will love it when you quit your job.
So proud seeing you grow as the woman that you are now! If you don’t tell the story like this, everyone must be saying that you are living the dream! But the truth is you worked so hard for everything and you deserve the best. Hoping that you’ll be accepted to one of the internship position and keep posting your life in NYC! Fighting🔥🔥🔥
아유.. 기특해라.. 우연히 유튜브 알고리즘에 나타나길래 몇개의 영상을 봤고요.. 오늘 영상 놀래서 들어와봤는데 스스로 위기 헤쳐나가는 모습을 보고 너무너무 이쁘고 멋지고 기특해서 구독 + 댓글 남깁니다. 우리집에있는 철부지 꼬마도 나중에 이렇게 당차고 멋진 어른이 되었으면 하는 마음에 댓글 남겨봅니다. 다음영상도 기대할게요 ❤
I know that it’s probably been a hard few months for you but i really hope that you are able to find peace and happiness in the smaller things. Don’t let the anxiety or stress about what the future holds ruin your present!!
You did good on leaving that „company“. There is no loyalty for employees in the US, even less for part-timers. Don’t give up! Wish you all the very best! Fighting! 🫰
ahh eyol❤️❤️ honestly you are so strong for standing up for yourself and working your way out through this difficult situation! I admire you for that so much❤ please keep fighting and have a great time in NYC anyway!!
I'm so sorry the internship turned out this way but I want to let you know it was truly inspiring seeing you standing up for yourself and I'm sure great things are around the corner for you.
I’m so SO sorry you had to deal with that. The frustration you felt while trying to explain yourself but rather than listening, they just nitpicked at everything and tried to twist the information to make you doubt yourself hit close to home for me. It’s like you’re being punished for trying to defend yourself and it’s somehow a crime to want better working conditions and to be able to actually do the job you’re assigned. It’s so wild how normalized this is. But I’m glad that you heard back from those 3 companies and I hope you got the job/internship, and get to stay in NY. I’ve been hoping to run into you one of these days just to say hi (not trying to be creepy😅) A side note, I squealed when I saw the kimchi rice balls (Ben’s balls lol) and realized you were at Between the Bagel. I love that place especially their Nutella banana pudding
this big ass gaslight I hate him. props to you for standing up for yourself in such a complex situation where it would have been easy to lay low and accept as the power is more inches hands and he clearly uses that tp his advantage. I love that you're bringing this up on your channel, it's important that others see how a situation like this can be handled and how we do not have to submission to such mistreating work behaviors. that's not the first time you do that on ur TH-cam and I really appreciate it
Merry Christmas Eyol 😊 i wish you the best and healthy and happiness and don't be sad all for some reason happened you are the strongest person I know 🎄🎆🎇🥰
one thing I've learned in 2024 is when a door closes a bigger and better one will open. I'm so sorry about the internship. If you didn't quit, you would have stayed in a place you don't like and wouldn't have had the opportunity to work in a better environment (hoping it is a better and positive place). Not everyone dares to stand up for themselves and you did GOOD JOB!!
Its so amazing how life turns. So inspiring and amazing of you! I have been watching you since then, your struggles in Germany and now you are in NYC. Eyol, you never gave up! Please remember that storms will not last forever! Fighting!!! Goodluck! ❤🎉
참 세상은 계획대로, 예상대로 흘러가는 일이 없어요 그죠 .. 뭔가 있어보이는 위로를 건네고 싶은데 막상 그럴 능력이 없어서 그저 이욜님만을 한없이 응원하겠다는 말을 전하고 싶어요. ‘나’를 우선으로 생각해서 하는 선택은 늘 어렵지만 이욜님은 나름대로 잘 해내는 것 같아서 멋져요. 그러니 너무 많이 울진 마세요 .. 정말 안아주고 싶었어 ㅜㅜ .. 아무튼 다음 영상은 분명히 좋은 소식이 담겨 있을 것이라 믿어요 ㅎㅎ 인스타스토리 무물을 보니 뉴욕은 아직 크리스마스라고 하던데, 행복한 크리스마스 보내길 바라요. 감기 조심하구요! 밥 잘 챙겨먹구요! 💚💚
I also had to pause the video and comment about the situation because this was simply unacceptable. The boss and the sponsor should be the ones to accommodate you. If they're being defensive and trying to solve the problem by handling it to one another, they are wrong from the beginning. It is also unacceptable that you, as an intern and a foreigner, have to deal with expressing your difficulties while avoiding tacking on their fragilities. In the end, you handled it very well, communicating with the "interested" and leaving your leftover activities organized for the next poor soul to pick it up. The bad experiences we go through professionally SUCK SO MUCH, we feel so diminished when these should be ADULTS HANDLING SIMPLE PROBLEMS. We always prefer not to go through such things, but after it, please focus on the learning of handling horrible bosses and understanding your priorities and feelings always. Rooting for you!
항상 응원하는 이욜님... U3U 무시무시한 타지에서도 어려움을 헤쳐나가는 모습이 멋있어요! 이렇게 겪은 시련들이 더욱 단단하고 멋진 이욜님을 만들어 줄 테니까 지금처럼 맛난 아이스크림 먹으면서... 베이글 드시면서... 부드럽게 이겨나가셨으면 해요 ♡ 저는 2월 졸업 예정인 예비 백수 구독자인데, 사회에 나갈 시기가 가까워질수록 그저 즐겁게 봤던 이욜님의 브이로그가 엄청나게 와닿더라구요 ㅋㅋ 늘 공감과 위로가 되어주셔서 감사합니다... 🫶🏻 기록이라는 것도 몸과 마음이 힘들면 쉽지 않은 일이잖아요? 그런 의미에서 이욜님의 근면성실은 보장되었다구 생각해요! 만에 하나라도 '어찌 됐든 버티지 못한 나'에게 화살을 스스로 돌리는 순간이 온다면 (오지 않길 바라지만 만약!!!) 이욜님의 유튜브를 보면서 지금 잘못된 생각을 하고 있다는 걸 깨닫고 털어내셨으면 좋겠어용... 누구라도 그랬을 거고 거기 정말 잘 탈출하신 겁니다! 새로운 회사에서는 더 좋은 일만 있길 바라며... 🥹 우리 어른이 되어서 1인분씩 해내며 살아가봅시다!!! 빠샤!!!!!!!!!
I’m an 🇺🇸 HR girly trying to actually help people. Unfortunately HR will always protect the business. I’ve worked abroad 3 times, now in Australia. It is difficult and you are a strong person to do this! I think they are taking advantage of you and your situation. Please do what’s best for your happiness and success!!! ❤
First of all, merry christmas and happy holidays🎄🎁🍾✨ Secondly, I'm cheering for your interviews to go well, happy you decided to give it a last shot after bravely standing up for yourself! Know your worth always🫶
Just found your vlog today, Merry Christmas 🎄🎁 and I wanted to say that I 100% support the very difficult decisions you have made and respect your strength and motivation. I’m sorry that your intern experience was less than expected but sometimes it’s these events that push us toward a better destination. Many blessings for continued strength during this challenging time 🌺🌸🩷
You're so brave and strong already despite all the adversity that's thrown your way ever since you landed in NYC! I'm so sorry about how your experience is unfolding, but sometimes these things happen because the universe is trying to bring better things your way❤🙏 Sending you lots of virtual hugs and support!
메리크리스마스🎄❤️
Frohe Weihnachten!
merry christmas!!

Exactly this. I hope it all works out! I will be there next week. I love visiting but would find it hard to live there. I hope you are enjoying the time and secured a job.
Exploitation is definitely the perfect word for this situation 😭 The salary is possibly illegal - it’s way below established minimum wage. 진짜 열받네
@@ChristineImogui struggle on 400 a month in INDIANA not even paying rent. i can’t imagine how she feels going ti NYC where the minimum wage is $16, and not even making enough for half the rent.
ㅜㅜㅜㅜ 너무 고생하셨어요...
스폰서도 무책임하고... 정부 연계 프로그램인데도 제대로 보호받지 못하는 이 상황이 정말 거지같지만... 결국 스스로의 힘으로 길을 개척하는 모습이 멋집니다 !
이게 가볍게 영상올리는것처럼 보일 수 있는데 정말 큰걱정 이라는게 너무 잘전달되서 걱정이 많이되요 이욜님 진짜 잘됬으면 좋겠다 .. ㅜㅜ 소식 꼭 올려주기에요 ㅠㅜㅜ
지나가다,, ㅎㅎ

남들이 뭐라건 부당함에 대해 깊이, 오랜시긴 고민해보고 결정내렸을거라 생각해요! 누구보다 인턴생활을 잘 마치고 싶어하던 이욜님이깐요! 이욜님의 가치를 알아봐주는 곳에서 일하며 많은 것들을 경험하고 행복한 생활만 하시길 제가 끝까지 응원할게요! 아쟈뵤!!!!!♥️
어떻게 해서든 파도를 해쳐나가시는 모습이 너무 멋있고 저에게 좋은 자극제입니다❤ 이욜 멋져❤
That internship was definitely not a great situation. I love watching your NYC vlogs as I go there at least 3 times a year.
There is nothing to be ashamed of, you are doing the right thing. If this doesn’t work out, then it wasn’t meant to be. Stay true to yourself and do what you think it’s the right thing for YOU! ❤
You did a fantastic job! You stood up for yourself and decided not to be where you are not appreciated and lied to, it's not quitting but a big win!
Fingers crossed for the new opportunities!

It is sad to see companies exploiting their interns like this. I am happy to see that you have been able to get interviews at other companies, I pray you end up in a position that makes you happy and that you enjoy your time in New York! ❤
어딜가서든 이겨내시는 모습이 정말 존경스럽습니다 앞으로의 미국생활도 잘해내실거같아요~ 화이팅!
merry christmas eyol! i'm so proud of you for doing what you thought was best, and i look forward to seeing what you'll be doing next!! congrats on landing interviews and good luck with everything! you'll always have my support :)
어머 너무 멋잇어요. 제가 본받아야겟어요 😮❤
이욜님 다 잘될거에요!!
행운을 빌어요☘️☘️💚💚
Wow, sometimes the best plan is having no plan..! Your resilience and ability to adapt to such close-cut situations (finding a new job and place to live on short notice) is really admirable. Your journey hasn’t been easy, but I’m proud of you for sticking up for yourself as much as you could the whole way through. So even if the people around you don’t believe in you, believing in yourself will always take you far! Keep your head up and I wish you the best for your next steps 🍀🩷
I'm so sorry the first internship was like this, unfortunately this kind of situation is very common, but I'm so happy to know that you actually quit and that you have almost secured options, specially after all you went through to stay in ny. also, as a introvert myself, i just wanted to say that i understand so much of what you mentioned and give you a pat in the back for working all of this out and putting out what wasn't fair! i know you basically had no choice but to, but i also know its a hard situation and that requires courage. you did well! really hope everything worked out well!!
아이고 🥹 잘풀려서 넘넘 다행이에요 멋있어요
wishing you the bestest of luck!!! i also studied fashion merchandising in college and it was difficult finding a solid job after graduating! you got this
감동적인 마무리라서 다행이에요~~ 메리크리스마스~~~~~~~~~~
우리 이욜님 무조건 잘 되실겁니다!! 막막한 상황에서도 긍정 마인드 잊지 않고 뚝딱뚝딱 해나가시는 모습이 넘나 멋있으세요. 다음 영상에선 꼭 좋은 소식 있으리라 믿어 의심치 않습니다.
화이팅이에요!
I’m happy you made this decision and stood up for yourself. I hope you find something better whether it’s in New York or Korea. Sending positive vibes!
저는 해외 생활을 얼레벌레해서 이욜님의 선택과 결정들이 멋있다고 생각해요. 지금 겪는 일들이 어떤 식으로 결론지어지든 있는 힘껏 응원할게요.
오늘은 따뜻하고 행복한 크리스마스 보내시기를…🎄🫶
마지막까지 최선을 다하시는 모습에 감동입니다. ❤
i too quit my internship in October after one year of working. everything was fine, pay was good too but it was taking a lot of my time which i could have invested towards a much productive thing. also the unsupervised hours are actually very common here in India too. i taught myself all the things in that internship and did all the work, but my supervisor took all the credit for my work. it was frustrating and discouraging. everyone thought i was crazy when i was quitting but i had to do it. my family supported me in my decision too which i am super grateful for. hence i came back to my home and now i am preparing for my final exams Which i need to qualify to become the professional. hope all goes well. but yes you will love it when you quit your job.
So proud seeing you grow as the woman that you are now! If you don’t tell the story like this, everyone must be saying that you are living the dream! But the truth is you worked so hard for everything and you deserve the best. Hoping that you’ll be accepted to one of the internship position and keep posting your life in NYC!
Fighting🔥🔥🔥
아유.. 기특해라.. 우연히 유튜브 알고리즘에 나타나길래 몇개의 영상을 봤고요.. 오늘 영상 놀래서 들어와봤는데 스스로 위기 헤쳐나가는 모습을 보고 너무너무 이쁘고 멋지고 기특해서 구독 + 댓글 남깁니다. 우리집에있는 철부지 꼬마도 나중에 이렇게 당차고 멋진 어른이 되었으면 하는 마음에 댓글 남겨봅니다. 다음영상도 기대할게요 ❤
고생했어요 넘 기특강아지ㅠㅠ
I know that it’s probably been a hard few months for you but i really hope that you are able to find peace and happiness in the smaller things. Don’t let the anxiety or stress about what the future holds ruin your present!!
저도 해외생활 9년째 하고 있는데요, 제일 많이 들었던 소리가 똑똑한 사람이 해외에서 이기는것이 아닌, 포기하지않고 견뎌내는 사람만이 해외생활 이긴다고 하더군요.. 힘드시겠지만 화이팅입니다!!
이욜님의 뉴욕 브이로그를 계속 보고싶어요😢 응원합니다
You did good on leaving that „company“. There is no loyalty for employees in the US, even less for part-timers. Don’t give up! Wish you all the very best! Fighting! 🫰
ahh eyol❤️❤️ honestly you are so strong for standing up for yourself and working your way out through this difficult situation! I admire you for that so much❤ please keep fighting and have a great time in NYC anyway!!
진짜 너무너무 수고 많으셨어요. 좋은 곳에서 인턴 하셨으면 좋겠어요.
너무 너무 고생하셨습니다!! 응원해요!!!
I'm so sorry the internship turned out this way but I want to let you know it was truly inspiring seeing you standing up for yourself and I'm sure great things are around the corner for you.
wishing you good luck as you get through this hurdle! you can do it! Merry Christmas and hope you are enjoying the holiday spirit in NYC!
🎄
왜이러케 시련들이 많은거야 ㅠㅠㅠ 이욜님 지금은 평안하신가여,,?😢 2025년에는 미국에서 안정적이고 멋진 커리어우먼으로써 평안하게 다니셨음 좋겠어요!!!!!! 이욜님 메리크리스마스❤❤
너무너무 고생많으셨습니다 ㅠㅠ 속상했던 일들을 잊고 행복하게 지내시길 바라요!! 항상 응원할게요🍀🍀
행복한 일만 가득하길
잘되실거 같아요
다음 에피소드 기대합니다 ^^
무너질 법한 상황 속에서도 늘 꿋꿋하게 이겨나가는 선생님의 모습은 참으로 아름답습니다. 존경해요 선생님.
Merry Christmas
I’m so SO sorry you had to deal with that. The frustration you felt while trying to explain yourself but rather than listening, they just nitpicked at everything and tried to twist the information to make you doubt yourself hit close to home for me. It’s like you’re being punished for trying to defend yourself and it’s somehow a crime to want better working conditions and to be able to actually do the job you’re assigned. It’s so wild how normalized this is. But I’m glad that you heard back from those 3 companies and I hope you got the job/internship, and get to stay in NY. I’ve been hoping to run into you one of these days just to say hi (not trying to be creepy😅) A side note, I squealed when I saw the kimchi rice balls (Ben’s balls lol) and realized you were at Between the Bagel. I love that place especially their Nutella banana pudding
this big ass gaslight I hate him. props to you for standing up for yourself in such a complex situation where it would have been easy to lay low and accept as the power is more inches hands and he clearly uses that tp his advantage. I love that you're bringing this up on your channel, it's important that others see how a situation like this can be handled and how we do not have to submission to such mistreating work behaviors. that's not the first time you do that on ur TH-cam and I really appreciate it
Merry Christmas Eyol 😊 i wish you the best and healthy and happiness and don't be sad all for some reason happened you are the strongest person I know 🎄🎆🎇🥰
화이팅!
원하는 대로 이루어지라!
one thing I've learned in 2024 is when a door closes a bigger and better one will open. I'm so sorry about the internship. If you didn't quit, you would have stayed in a place you don't like and wouldn't have had the opportunity to work in a better environment (hoping it is a better and positive place). Not everyone dares to stand up for themselves and you did GOOD JOB!!
Its so amazing how life turns. So inspiring and amazing of you! I have been watching you since then, your struggles in Germany and now you are in NYC. Eyol, you never gave up! Please remember that storms will not last forever! Fighting!!! Goodluck! ❤🎉
참 세상은 계획대로, 예상대로 흘러가는 일이 없어요 그죠 .. 뭔가 있어보이는 위로를 건네고 싶은데 막상 그럴 능력이 없어서 그저 이욜님만을 한없이 응원하겠다는 말을 전하고 싶어요. ‘나’를 우선으로 생각해서 하는 선택은 늘 어렵지만 이욜님은 나름대로 잘 해내는 것 같아서 멋져요. 그러니 너무 많이 울진 마세요 .. 정말 안아주고 싶었어 ㅜㅜ .. 아무튼 다음 영상은 분명히 좋은 소식이 담겨 있을 것이라 믿어요 ㅎㅎ 인스타스토리 무물을 보니 뉴욕은 아직 크리스마스라고 하던데, 행복한 크리스마스 보내길 바라요. 감기 조심하구요! 밥 잘 챙겨먹구요! 💚💚
I also had to pause the video and comment about the situation because this was simply unacceptable. The boss and the sponsor should be the ones to accommodate you. If they're being defensive and trying to solve the problem by handling it to one another, they are wrong from the beginning. It is also unacceptable that you, as an intern and a foreigner, have to deal with expressing your difficulties while avoiding tacking on their fragilities. In the end, you handled it very well, communicating with the "interested" and leaving your leftover activities organized for the next poor soul to pick it up. The bad experiences we go through professionally SUCK SO MUCH, we feel so diminished when these should be ADULTS HANDLING SIMPLE PROBLEMS. We always prefer not to go through such things, but after it, please focus on the learning of handling horrible bosses and understanding your priorities and feelings always. Rooting for you!
다행이에요 ㅠㅠ 파이팅!!
항상 응원하는 이욜님... U3U 무시무시한 타지에서도 어려움을 헤쳐나가는 모습이 멋있어요! 이렇게 겪은 시련들이 더욱 단단하고 멋진 이욜님을 만들어 줄 테니까 지금처럼 맛난 아이스크림 먹으면서... 베이글 드시면서... 부드럽게 이겨나가셨으면 해요 ♡ 저는 2월 졸업 예정인 예비 백수 구독자인데, 사회에 나갈 시기가 가까워질수록 그저 즐겁게 봤던 이욜님의 브이로그가 엄청나게 와닿더라구요 ㅋㅋ 늘 공감과 위로가 되어주셔서 감사합니다... 🫶🏻 기록이라는 것도 몸과 마음이 힘들면 쉽지 않은 일이잖아요? 그런 의미에서 이욜님의 근면성실은 보장되었다구 생각해요! 만에 하나라도 '어찌 됐든 버티지 못한 나'에게 화살을 스스로 돌리는 순간이 온다면 (오지 않길 바라지만 만약!!!) 이욜님의 유튜브를 보면서 지금 잘못된 생각을 하고 있다는 걸 깨닫고 털어내셨으면 좋겠어용... 누구라도 그랬을 거고 거기 정말 잘 탈출하신 겁니다! 새로운 회사에서는 더 좋은 일만 있길 바라며... 🥹 우리 어른이 되어서 1인분씩 해내며 살아가봅시다!!! 빠샤!!!!!!!!!
제발제발 잘 됐으면 좋겠다,,,
머나먼 땅에 있지만 응원합니다아 🥹
I’m an 🇺🇸 HR girly trying to actually help people. Unfortunately HR will always protect the business. I’ve worked abroad 3 times, now in Australia. It is difficult and you are a strong person to do this! I think they are taking advantage of you and your situation. Please do what’s best for your happiness and success!!! ❤
이욜님 타국에서 너무 고생하셔서 마음이 아프네요 ㅠㅠ 꼭 일이 잘 풀리시길 바래요! 메리 크리스마스 🎄
I am so freaking happy for you that I almost cried. In the end everything went well🎉 ❤
크리스마스 선물처럼 와줘서 너무 감사...🎄💫
First of all, merry christmas and happy holidays🎄🎁🍾✨ Secondly, I'm cheering for your interviews to go well, happy you decided to give it a last shot after bravely standing up for yourself! Know your worth always🫶
it must have been so hard to stand up for yourself, but im so proud of you🥺❤
First time subscriber,I really enjoy seeing New York..and I hope it works out for you where ever you are
eyol, u did so well! u went through so much 🥲🥹🫂 heres to more happy days!!
무리한 업무와 상황을 끝까지 잡고 합리화를 하는것보다 빠르게 포기하고 생각을 정리하는게 훨씬 좋다고 생각해요! 미국이 뭐 별건가요..... 포기가 아니라 기회를 위해 한걸음 나아간다고 생각하고 힘냈으면 좋겠어요 :)
I admire your courage. I would be so scared and I grew up in the U.S.! Good luck with everything!
im feeling sorry seeing you crying( who always motivate me) , hope everything will be okey soon❤❤
Just found your vlog today, Merry Christmas 🎄🎁 and I wanted to say that I 100% support the very difficult decisions you have made and respect your strength and motivation. I’m sorry that your intern experience was less than expected but sometimes it’s these events that push us toward a better destination. Many blessings for continued strength during this challenging time 🌺🌸🩷
Hope everything has worked out and you will see the ball drop in NYC!
I hope your interview went great and you will get the job 🥺 and Merry Christmas 🎄🤍
이욜님 모든 일이 잘 됐으면 좋겠씁니다 화이팅!!!!!

You're so brave and strong already despite all the adversity that's thrown your way ever since you landed in NYC!
I'm so sorry about how your experience is unfolding, but sometimes these things happen because the universe is trying to bring better things your way❤🙏
