PART 2 HERE: New interview with a Black man living in Japan: th-cam.com/video/YmuweJTnlp0/w-d-xo.html 🙏Please let us know in the comments where you are viewing from!
Please stop calling people who hate us for no reason African. Stop with your self-hate. If he was born in Liberia he will not be allow to be a citizen because of our negro law.
@@wadek798 Yeah i agree but dont act like every person in Africa is accepting of Asians or that every Korean is not accepting of Africans. IMO regardless of race, if you can speak the mother tongue then there will always be a group that will accept you. There's always a bit of racism in every country. Even Africans in America will show racism towards African-Americans which is wild. Its not the culture that accepts people, its just good people accepting others into their culture. @Lil_Elegant what a sad statement. I went to college in Chicago and the best part of it was all the different cultures and races. I loved learning about my friends culture from northern India, or Zimbabwe, or Columbia, etc. and I liked sharing back how i grew up as an Asian American. The more you learn about other people's culture the more you realize "oh there's a lot of similarities with my culture" or "oh that's a beautiful perspective of the world". This makes YOU more worldly and understanding of different cultures. It also adds value to YOUR culture when other's understand and respect it.
@@Mineo77-op4buyes except the context is different because in African countries, it’s part of the culture to help raise other people’s children cause it’s more communal than individualistic, whereas back then in America, they were forced to and it was rooted in slavery. So the raising part isn’t bad, it just depends on the context!
Africa is so accepting, we were enslaved not because we were weak and could not fight but because we were quick to accept them and not view them as a threat so we let our guard down, showed them our ways and exposing our weaknesses tha they took advantage of.
Please the beauty of African people is unmatched it was lust and power and greedy blood leeches that wanted African bodies to do with as they please, They had so many other races to steal why just us for 1,800 years, Arabs and Europeans, Yet we accept everyone as our own but aren't accepted the way we accept others.
From a white South African I can vouch for how friendly and accepting rural black folk are. If only the whole world could operate and mix as well as these guys and all those who’ve commented on this video. Peace and friendship to the world🇿🇦🇿🇦🇿🇦
I am Togolese and after living in France and England I know for sure that Togo is a lovely country because it is a safe place and people are genuinely nice. Every country has it good sides and I am happy to see that you see the good side of Africa
This is so nice. I hear that alot that Black cultures are more accepting of foreigners. Compared to when they are international, not a lot of countries are very accepting like that. Korea for example with their no foreigner rule for clubs or job or housing. We all can learn from this. ❤
This only apply to non blacks approaching black culture but let Zimbabwean say he south african, let Rwandan say he Burundi and try to approach their culture or let somali say they ethopian or Eritrean say he ethopian etc. Black only have beef with other black people it sad, just like east asians ate racist toward each other but would welcome whites appropriate their culture, black people especially Africans with their tribalism can be quite close minded especially toward other africans
Are you touched in the head?? What is black culture?? Is Africa the US?? Why can't you specify with tribe or country Have you ever heard anything like " black culture" in ur country??😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
As a black American is always amazing to hear these types of stories about the motherland and unique unity amongst other cultures and how accepting black individuals are of them and seeing how he celebrates the culture and even has a business inspired by it.
I’m a Mexican watching from USA. This was so relatable to me. Thanks for doing these videos. When I was brought as a young child to the USA, we lived in a black community. Not only had I not seen a black person before, I didn’t speak a word of English. However, not once did I feel any discrimination whatsoever. But, get this, when we traveled further North and moved into a Mexican/American community, boy was I given a 360-slap-in-the-face discrimination awakening. And, I knew some English by then! Sad reality. Silly thing now, when folks see me in person after talking to me on the phone, they don’t believe it’s me at first sight because I have no accent. They probably imagine a blond, blue eyed Caucasian. Not a black, browned eye, English speaking Latina. Seriously! The little minds of people in their little worlds despite the extent of which technology takes us nowadays. And, the diversity of people all over the world. We need a more open mindset, folks. All people’s are beautiful. ❤ I speak English and Spanish fluently and am learning Thai at the moment. But I’d also like to learn French, German, Italian, Mandarin and Korean because I’d like to visit the other half of the world in the future. Can’t wait! 🤗 Saludos desde 🇺🇸
Thanks for watching and sharing your story! You should definitely check out our video on languages: th-cam.com/video/ZSEzKlLssV8/w-d-xo.htmlfeature=shared
The togolese korean is very respectfull ! He don't try to put himself above black africans but adapt himself. Great personnality. What I appreciated with him is that he return back in the country of his parents which teached him their culture. He is very interna and can feet everywhere. This is what black european do not have for most and africans who come in Europe for study or what ever don't return in their countries. This is the way to live more Free and more respected and valued. We should all take note!
Ghanian people are nice, I visited Ghana for 1 month villagers great you in da morning even if they don't know you. They will give you from the little they have, I miss mostly shito now one here in Europe can make good shito better then African moda even if I buy from African shops doesn't teasts the same I like all African food yam with stew, banku, fufu grant soup occra soup. I'm blessed to eat with the Shaban's family.
I am a 68 year Granny from America and I really enjoyed listening to all of your experience. It is nice to hear good about us and other places and cultures. It was very informative. The world would be a better place if we could see each as brethren and look through the eyes of love and fellowship. Not through bias publicity. Thank you guys. There's good in every nation.❤
And this right here is why Africans never get any respect this why foreigners come into Africa and run the show while looking down on native locals like you. Smh yall never learn i'm so tired.
So I grew up in the states while my brother grew up in Togo. I'm listening to this guy and he sounds exactly like how my brother speaks English! Even his mannerisms and the way he jokes is so West African. Wow.
This is so interesting!!! I was born and raise in Chile, but my parents are from Germany. Growing up bilingual and with two cultures is so interesting to me. It helps you see the world in so many different ways. But it also brings this identity issues. When you don't feel 100% Chilean nor 100% German, in my case. The same thing happens to me when speaking English. When I speak English in Germany, you can totally tell I am not from there. My chilean accent comes and I used to feel embarrassed, but now it's just a part of me. We tend to look for our identity in our culture and I think it's both complicated and beautiful.
I’m Black American. This is a beautiful video. Educational and informative. If only our whole world could be embracing and respecting 0:10 and accepting of all cultures.
There's nothing beautiful abeautiful about people appropriating and commonifying your culture, let them Africans, let them in. We have to learn the hard way when people come in and they use your culture, but they hate you. They commodify your culture, but they try to erase you crime. No, thank you. Just leave foundational black American culture alone. And if those Africans wanna let you come in and appropriate their culture, that's their business.
Him dancing over the plantains is so African. I’m from Nigeria. The continent brings out that African vibe in everyone no matter your race. Love this video. New subbie.
Loved this episode! I’m here from the US. I’ve taught English at a private academy in Seoul and I’ve travelled a lot internationally including to South African and Morocco. I think the world needs this-raising a generation of multi-lingual and internationally aware people. Keep making videos like this please!
Un sujet bien plus deep qu’il ne paraît !! Nous sommes nombreux à avoir cette mixité culturelle …cela de différentes manières …. Nous sommes plusieurs à juste être MONDE … c est un sentiment très deep ! Une vraie vibe! Bravo c est propre !
Ah JESUS I was shooked this is the most unexpected mix of my life as a Togolese myself now living in Scotland I’ve never across a Korean Togolese being raise in Togo
I"m an American who was born in the Philippines. This discussion was really interesting to listen to. I love the melding pot of cultures and experiences. I feel sad that some people would remain closed-minded about embracing different people and cultures. They don't know what they're missing.
Unless mistaken, I believe I knew the Korean-Togolese guy, he lived in the residence du Benin, also known as la caisse. A Korean family lived across the street from my aunt's house. His father probably worked at the Korean hair factory in Lomé.
Just discovered your channel and I really enjoyed this episode. I'm Jamaican 🇯🇲 and I'm so taken aback whenever I hear our country being referenced as influential in someone's lived experience. A nation of just 3m ppl has impacted so many across the globe. It's mind boggling. And especially Africans. I wish you every success with your channel.
@@evolve_hqUk really has no culture and its cringey being proud because a country on the other side of the world is more relevant than a country of beans and toast.
Stop the nonsense they not africans they are koreans raised in africa, just cuz they raised here doesn't make them africans just like how if african child raised in Japanese or Korea doesn't make them asian
@@sakurakou2009but legally, he's a Togolese. You're confusing nationality with ethnicity... Many African children born in Europe identify in accordance to the European country they born in... You'll hear a child born from African parents in Italy identifying as an Afro Italian instead of just African, how about we address that one first before we can decide who can identify as an African in accordance to the African country they're born in and who can't.
@@tes-xj8uy being british is nationality or citizenship it can be revoked any time from you and you be deported back to africa, maybe you need to learn of british history and how they deported half british children of black Americans soilders who had them with british women during world Wars, they literally stated they were deporting them cuz they wanted to keep britian white.
I’m Nigerian viewing from the UK, and what they said about the bond and friendship with Africans is so true. When they have you back, they have you back. We bond so well we Africans.
Super intéressant!! C'est tellement gratifiant de vivre ce partage de cultures et ce véritable métissage, c'est simplement magnifique.. La Réunion lé là!!🇷🇪 Out kréol lé nickel! Merci pour cette vidéo❤ PS : on est d'accord, la bouffe réunionnaise, c'est la meilleure😉
Hey guys, i loved ur discussion, am from Togo 🇹🇬 living in Philadelphia , i would love to send u plantains, thank goodness i have here, would have died without it, thank you 🙏 akpé
@@saludosalsol I think because he is able to fully embrace the African accent, the food, the people, and the experience. It is not a fetish for him.. It has become part of him. Sadly, most Africans want to hide their accents and act more European. I have stayed in America for 13years. I embrace my Malawian accent.
@@pepichikako7122 good for you! Yes I think his sexiness comes from that he is comfortable with himself and his background even though probably most people aren’t like him 😌 Hello from USA! 🇺🇸 I hope everyone can learn to love and embrace themselves, from there we can better learn to love and embrace others. 😌✌🏼
THANK YOU GUYS FOR SHARING AFRICAN VIBES WITH THE WORLD. BOTH OF YOU ARE VERY IMPRESSIVE. LOVE YOU BRO. THE WORLD DEFINITELY SHOULD BE A REUNION. WATCHING FROM USA.
Being part of people doesn’t means absolutely looking like them it’s the sense of belonging to their culture. This dude has part of Africa in his heart ❤️
I remember a blonde kid with blue eyes speaking Bisaya (Phillipine local dialect) to a Filipino kid, typical brown-skinned, brown eyed Filipino. And the Filipino kid is responding in American accent, fluently. I was amused of the melding of cultures and languages
I can relate to this. My family goes to a korean church in Togo . Koreans are nice and not discriminatory. They easily integrate in African society. Respect Bro..
Samoan raised in NZ, what he said about knowing different types of music. A Polynesians playlist is so random from our own Polynesian music to a Praise and Worship, Reggae, NZ Music, Pop, Country, Latin, KPop, Classical, RnB, Afrobeats, EDM. If it’s got a good beat and meaning it’s in our library. Not sure if it’s our innate love for music. I mean in Samoa, Jamaican reggae has had an impact for a couple of decades. Samoa was into Brenda Fassie, Adina and Afrobeats for years before it became globally popular. I guess when you can’t get off the island, other cultures really good music is a way of travelling to the country. Also if a Samoan has made a remix of your music, it means it’s really good and you can guarantee other versions have swept throughout the Pasifika.
Loved this interview! As a person of African descent born in the US, I’ve only had the privilege of visiting The Continent once (South Africa). Can’t wait to go back & visit more countries. This African man of Korean descent is such a cool dude! ❤
I stumbled upon this video and I thoroughly enjoyed watching it. I’m Nigerian watching from Ghana. And sadly the video has ended but I’ve hit the subscribe button and hope to get a notification when you upload a new video. Thank you.😊
I came across your video. I really like it. Thank you. I I wish more people would have your energy we all are the only thing that’s different is the texture of our hair and the color of our skin but everything else is the same thank you. Appreciate you.
Aww its so beautiful when reggae is love by everyone. I’m a Jamaican 🇯🇲🇯🇲and every time I hear different people from different countries love and accept our beautiful reggae music. Come to Jamaica one day and enjoy our beautiful music and food. Embracing our different cultures are one of a kind
Vato love from Togo !!!🇹🇬 Im learning Korean actually I’ll be soon and as vidéographer will shoot some videos , shout out to all the team was great watching this vid , like we in Togo « élé sure mikpayé »
So much lessons about life in less than 20 minutes . Hate and Love are taught depending on how and where we grew up. One love to good human race. Deep and thought provoking
I felt awesome when he said he’s unique…. Being different is fire…. I can’t relate moving to the Nederlands speaking Dutch with my African accent is crazy but I love it😂😂
This is so amazing. As a Black American I am so glad that he had these personal experiences for himself and was never influenced by any stereotypes. That is what the world needs. To be able to personally experience different people and cultures without preconceived notions or assumptions about other races, ethnicities, and cultures without media influence and stereotypes. This is one way to end racism and I am so grateful to see how similar most African people from these nations that they spoke on are to most black people that grew up here in the American south.
Watching from france. I'm glad to know about all of you. I understand all you was saying because I'm congolese but I studied at university in turkey. I speak French, lingala, Turkish and english. Integration in turkey was so difficult. I was missing my country so much. Now in France is so cool.
I'm a Nigerian, viewing from Nigeria. I also understand and speak french and I must say that this unity, friendliness and mixture of races and culture is indeed a blessing ❤❤❤❤ Love from Nigeria.
THIS GUY IS REALLY HUGE, HE'S MY BRO, I AM FROM AFRICA, I HAVE NEVER BEEN IN KOREA BUT I FEEL IT INSIDE OF ME, HE'S A BROTHER and the world needs more people like him to be a better and wonderful spot

Now go to Korea, and see if they are as accepting as you are of them. It’s been proven many times that they are not

What he said about an African woman bringing him up as a child while his parents worked. This is prevalent in most African countries.

It's the same thing that happened in America. The BW raised other people's children.

We are accepting but we fought them when they started their evil, then we were conquered because they had guns
I am an Asian who grew up in Africa from 10 to 21 years in Botswana. Loved growing up in Africa.

I"m an American who was born in the Philippines. This discussion was really interesting to listen to. I love the melding pot of cultures and experiences. I feel sad that some people would remain closed-minded about embracing different people and cultures. They don't know what they're missing.
Y’all so dope! Love the accents and being polyglots rock👍🏽👍🏽
Unless mistaken, I believe I knew the Korean-Togolese guy, he lived in the residence du Benin, also known as la caisse. A Korean family lived across the street from my aunt's house. His father probably worked at the Korean hair factory in Lomé.
Just discovered your channel and I really enjoyed this episode. I'm Jamaican 🇯🇲 and I'm so taken aback whenever I hear our country being referenced as influential in someone's lived experience. A nation of just 3m ppl has impacted so many across the globe. It's mind boggling. And especially Africans. I wish you every success with your channel.
Many thanks for saying so, Jamaica has influenced our culture in the UK a lot, also culture in Réunion. Out of many one people!
@@evolve_hqUk really has no culture and its cringey being proud because a country on the other side of the world is more relevant than a country of beans and toast.
I Love African Koreans… awesome people ❤
African Koreans do not exist. He is toggles Korean. Just like an african can not be asian.
Stop the nonsense they not africans they are koreans raised in africa, just cuz they raised here doesn't make them africans just like how if african child raised in Japanese or Korea doesn't make them asian
@@sakurakou2009but legally, he's a Togolese.
You're confusing nationality with ethnicity... Many African children born in Europe identify in accordance to the European country they born in... You'll hear a child born from African parents in Italy identifying as an Afro Italian instead of just African, how about we address that one first before we can decide who can identify as an African in accordance to the African country they're born in and who can't.
I’m African raised in the UK, everyone says I am British and I identify as African British.
@@tes-xj8uy being british is nationality or citizenship it can be revoked any time from you and you be deported back to africa, maybe you need to learn of british history and how they deported half british children of black Americans soilders who had them with british women during world Wars, they literally stated they were deporting them cuz they wanted to keep britian white.
It’s good to hear someone talk about the Togolese culture this way. You did experienced it.👍
I’m Nigerian viewing from the UK, and what they said about the bond and friendship with Africans is so true. When they have you back, they have you back. We bond so well we Africans.
Many thanks for watching! Part 2 is here: th-cam.com/video/fYwrK3uV-4g/w-d-xo.htmlfeature=shared
This video is so good! I just love people sharing and cherishing cultures with the world and eachother😍
The world is enriched by its different languages and cultures!
I need a part 2. The coversation was so interesting and fascinating to me. Also, I'm fortunate enough to have plantain nearby.
Thanks for watching, much more to come!
@@evolve_hqplease give us part 2 of this conversation/podcast I am loving it and we are brothers,i am South African
@@BongieBala Part 2 has been filmed and will be released soon, please stay tuned!
Super intéressant!! C'est tellement gratifiant de vivre ce partage de cultures et ce véritable métissage, c'est simplement magnifique..
La Réunion lé là!!🇷🇪 Out kréol lé nickel! Merci pour cette vidéo❤
PS : on est d'accord, la bouffe réunionnaise, c'est la meilleure😉
Merci aou! Mi vé manger in ti curi ek dakatine!
Hey guys, i loved ur discussion, am from Togo 🇹🇬 living in Philadelphia , i would love to send u plantains, thank goodness i have here, would have died without it, thank you 🙏 akpé
Many thanks for your message and for watching!
Wow.. enjoyed this we are all human with different cultures and colours watching from South Africa 🇿🇦
Yes. Bring that sexy African accent. I love it. The Korean guy his a vibe. African woman here thank you for making us feel so proud.
No honestly he really makes me smile😊😍
Yes there is something so sexy about his vibe 😂 can’t say what it is though
@@saludosalsol I think because he is able to fully embrace the African accent, the food, the people, and the experience. It is not a fetish for him.. It has become part of him. Sadly, most Africans want to hide their accents and act more European. I have stayed in America for 13years. I embrace my Malawian accent.
@@pepichikako7122 good for you! Yes I think his sexiness comes from that he is comfortable with himself and his background even though probably most people aren’t like him 😌 Hello from USA! 🇺🇸 I hope everyone can learn to love and embrace themselves, from there we can better learn to love and embrace others. 😌✌🏼
what does that even mean? A korean made you proud to be African?
THANK YOU GUYS FOR SHARING AFRICAN VIBES WITH THE WORLD. BOTH OF YOU ARE VERY IMPRESSIVE. LOVE YOU BRO. THE WORLD DEFINITELY SHOULD BE A REUNION. WATCHING FROM USA.
Thanks for your kind words and for watching
Being part of people doesn’t means absolutely looking like them it’s the sense of belonging to their culture. This dude has part of Africa in his heart ❤️
Loved that you lived in Reunion. Seychelles is the same. We speak creole, english and french. Our people are also diverse.
Créole people are so interesting and diverse, it's truly beautiful 🙏
I remember a blonde kid with blue eyes speaking Bisaya (Phillipine local dialect) to a Filipino kid, typical brown-skinned, brown eyed Filipino. And the Filipino kid is responding in American accent, fluently. I was amused of the melding of cultures and languages
I can relate to this. My family goes to a korean church in Togo . Koreans are nice and not discriminatory. They easily integrate in African society. Respect Bro..
Thank you for your comment!
😂sorry i know Koreans a lot of them are racist don’t put everyone in the same box
Sub-Saharan Africa is the most welcoming place in the world.
❤
Indeed ❤
Def a lie
Still committing genocide? People would care if I was Palestinian.
We are too welcoming. We need to discriminate more just as people discriminate against us Africans
my family moved from west Africa to the Caribbean islands being in mixed culture is a very rich experience for life
Which island??
@@hereiswisdom Dominican Republic
One thing I’m proud of is being a Ghanaian and how accepting we are. The downside is people take advantage of our hospitality for weakness.
Many thanks for watching! Part 2 is here: th-cam.com/video/fYwrK3uV-4g/w-d-xo.htmlfeature=shared
it's because you lack thinking capabilities.
Samoan raised in NZ, what he said about knowing different types of music. A Polynesians playlist is so random from our own Polynesian music to a Praise and Worship, Reggae, NZ Music, Pop, Country, Latin, KPop, Classical, RnB, Afrobeats, EDM. If it’s got a good beat and meaning it’s in our library. Not sure if it’s our innate love for music. I mean in Samoa, Jamaican reggae has had an impact for a couple of decades. Samoa was into Brenda Fassie, Adina and Afrobeats for years before it became globally popular. I guess when you can’t get off the island, other cultures really good music is a way of travelling to the country. Also if a Samoan has made a remix of your music, it means it’s really good and you can guarantee other versions have swept throughout the Pasifika.
This reminds me very much of Réunion Island; let's appreciate the beauty of all cultures!
@@evolve_hq 💯
His African accent still comes out 😅
Like it or not, Africa is the flavour of this world - be it food, music, hairstyles, dancing, fashion, humor and LOVE the list is endless….
All the day students…AWAYYY!!😂
That’s so Ghanaian. Pretty sure the teacher is from the Volta region of Ghana
I tell you,my people never dey carry last.
Ikr 😂 so Ghanaian
Sure we never dey carry last. Good to know he might be a voltarian 😅
I’m viewing from South Korea 🇰🇷 originally from South Africa 🇿🇦 I pray South Korea opens up to educate themselves about Africa as a continent.
I'm a Nigerian American watching from Atlanta, this was beautiful to watch!
Thank you very much for saying so!
Pablo u be Igbo or yoruba
I feel like crying by watching your video, this is how world should be. Love you from🇳🇬
Many thanks for watching! Check out our new video on being black in Japan: th-cam.com/video/YmuweJTnlp0/w-d-xo.htmlfeature=shared
And thanks for representing Africa as we see ourselves and do come home again brothers even for visits.
Many thanks!
Loved this interview! As a person of African descent born in the US, I’ve only had the privilege of visiting The Continent once (South Africa). Can’t wait to go back & visit more countries. This African man of Korean descent is such a cool dude! ❤
Thanks for sharing and for watching!

Evolve plans to come to Jamaica next year 🇯🇲 thanks for watching and check out our content on Réunion Island! Many similarities for sure 🙏🙏
The way he says ‘my guy’ is very West African. In my African accent, my guy, we claim you!
Thank you for watching!

Merci d'avoir regardé!
I enjoyed the interview. Greetings from Guyana 🇬🇾
Thanks for watching!
love to Togo from Benin Republic
New subscribers from Canada 🇨🇦 I had a smile on my face the whole time as I watched this episode, multiculturalism sure is a beautiful thing.
So much lessons about life in less than 20 minutes .
Hate and Love are taught depending on how and where we grew up.
One love to good human race.
Deep and thought provoking
Many thanks 🙏🏻
Great to see and hear their pride for their mixed culture. Hello from Ghana...
Many thanks for watching! Part 2 is here: th-cam.com/video/fYwrK3uV-4g/w-d-xo.htmlfeature=shared
I felt awesome when he said he’s unique…. Being different is fire…. I can’t relate moving to the Nederlands speaking Dutch with my African accent is crazy but I love it😂😂
Hi bro. Thanks for promoting my country Togo 🇹🇬.
Avec plaisir!
Can you believe i'm about to cry watching this great podcast... now I've noticed the value of my AFRICAN ID
Thank you for your kind words 🙏
This is the best video on culture I’ve ever watched! You make me feel at home! Thank you! Subscribed!!!!
Thank you very much, part 2 was filmed today 🙏
This is so amazing. As a Black American I am so glad that he had these personal experiences for himself and was never influenced by any stereotypes. That is what the world needs. To be able to personally experience different people and cultures without preconceived notions or assumptions about other races, ethnicities, and cultures without media influence and stereotypes. This is one way to end racism and I am so grateful to see how similar most African people from these nations that they spoke on are to most black people that grew up here in the American south.
There are definitely many similarities across our cultures, thank you so much for your message!
Korean guy is just a vibe.
Watching from france. I'm glad to know about all of you. I understand all you was saying because I'm congolese but I studied at university in turkey. I speak French, lingala, Turkish and english. Integration in turkey was so difficult. I was missing my country so much. Now in France is so cool.
Love his energy .
It's interesting to see things from "the other side". It's usually the story of black and brown youth growing up in the West.
Thank you.
I recognise myself in this video guys !
I'm a Nigerian, viewing from Nigeria. I also understand and speak french and I must say that this unity, friendliness and mixture of races and culture is indeed a blessing ❤❤❤❤
Love from Nigeria.
He is super smart!! I enjoy watching this.
THIS GUY IS REALLY HUGE, HE'S MY BRO, I AM FROM AFRICA, I HAVE NEVER BEEN IN KOREA BUT I FEEL IT INSIDE OF ME, HE'S A BROTHER and the world needs more people like him to be a better and wonderful spot
