    Congratulations on graduating and getting a job! What an awe-inspiring video from the beginning to the end. The storytelling, editing, cinematography, and overall captivating experience. I can totally understand where you are coming from and feeling like you don't belong. But, like you mentioned in this video, going through a struggle like this has made you realize certain things and grow as a person. Anyway, don't want to write a novel so wish you the best you are an amazing person who is more than capable of achieving all your goals and can do anything. I'll see you when I see you...

    hi joey! just wanted to say thank you so much for this video because its such a warm feeling to see someone who experiences the same thing as me as an international student (im indonesian studying in malaysian btw:0). i never knew i could be this relatable for my anxiety that i felt on my entire bachelor degree. "time makes us forget, and love makes us remember" ugh i loovee this phrase!! now im on my 2nd year of corporate life and i couldnt be happier, as by the time i finally can see my worth more and figure out lots of things for my career path. and along with that, i'm planning my master's scholarship as the way for me to 'forgive' my past self and create new memories! i hope the best luckkk for you and your endeavor!!

    Hear me out, okay? As someone with a not-so joyful childhood and having changed 5 schools just till high school, I can guarantee that if I was in your place, I would have disintegrated and broken apart. But, because you actually 'lived' your childhood, you are like really really positive. And I just hope you know how privileged that is. I pray that you're always this positive during every endeavor in your life and pick yourself up just like this whenever you feel you're down. Loveeeeeeeeee ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤

    Beautiful essay. It was so plain and you can feel the emotio of someone who belongs but doesn't belong at the same time.

    As a Korean myself who is currently studying in the States, I can definitely relate to what you might have been feeling. First, I know how it feels to be in a place where you don’t feel like you belong, and second, I can imagine what you had to go through around people who experienced the harsh Korean university application process and might see international students as different and not fully accept them. I wish you the best in the next chapter of your life.

    Joo-Ok!!!! I love this video! I would love to share this to my Korean students who probably feel similar feelings in the future, as well. I appreciate how you were able to capture and learn from the dichotomy of life as an adult third culture kid, and girl, trust me! Many can totally relate to this 🎉 keep on making such cool content! Will be fangirling from Indonesia! PS: love seeing all the familiar Chiangmai places and faces ❤

    I had a bad child hood while living with my mum, and when she kicked me out i had to sleep on my grannys floor with my sister while looking after my baby sister with my dad and i currently still am. I felt as if i had to grow up to fast and not enjoy my teenage life, i say that as if im 20 already when im only 14 years old because it felt as if everything is all over so soon... I really want to attend Yonsei university but do not have to grades for it. I feel as if i really belong in yonsei university even though i have not been there yet. I want to get a law degree and become a judge if i can. However my dreams are really high but my grades arent, im not sure whether i should blame my mum for raising me in her abusive care. But this video showed me that everyone has different experiences and it is different for everyone...

      There's always a way! Even if you can't get into Yonsei you can do study abroad semesters/summer semesters/years in college! Since you are still young you can look up scholarships and apply to as many as u can! The earlier the better! I think it is possible! I think there might be some study-abroad options for high schoolers too but I don't know much about them. I wish you the very best! You can do this!
      And for study tips, I don't know what your situation is exactly but for me what worked is if you can spend time in libraries and do Pomodro (which works for me haha) for maybe 2-3 hours every day you could definitely get good grades! I did some asynchronous college courses from a program in high school and would spend 4 hours in the library every day and finish the entire week's worth of homework + learn the content by Wednesday of the same week. Then you could make flashcards as you go and then have study material before quizzes.
      If you can't go to the library try having a consistent study schedule that is realistic (and small enough to where you do it) and getting noise-canceling headphones/headphones with brown noise on to drown the noise out it might help.
      For classes, there are different study methods like
      chemistry/math -- (my organic chemistry tutor on TH-cam & other youtube tutorials) + whiteboards OR just normal paper where you redo the questions over and over and over again until you memorize how to do it
      History/Health/Biology courses -- notes + make flashcard questions to EVERY section + draw out pictures and mind-maps of concepts
      I HIGHLY recommend using Google Calendar to time-block your schedule as realistic as possible. Make sure that you have a specific end-time so it doesn't feel like you are studying forever + it's a motivation to finish your work before the time ends. It's genuinely how everyone I know stays sane as pre-med students haha.
      These are honestly very vague things that helped me and might not work for you but I feel very confident that you can get the grades you want and you can get to Yonsei University and/or become a lawyer! (and a quick google search about studying in abusive households is trying to stay away from home as long as possible -- hopefully in libraries or maybe cafes) I hope the best for you! You should not have to be in this situation as a 14-year-old old and I love the motivation you have 🥺 You can do it!

    Beautiful video essay. The title "my biggest regret: coming to Korea University" doesn't fit the content though, it sounds like you did appreciate the experiences you went through in the end.

    hi, I'm your 1000th subscriber. This resonated with me as I had also lived abroad for most of my childhood, and I've been here two years now but I don't really think I've adjusted fully. A few weeks ago, I went back to where I used to live for a fortnight, and those in those two weeks I felt happier than I ever had in South Korea. Now, I'm not sure which culture I belong in anymore! But it does feel a lot better to see that other people have had similar experiences to me. Thank you sooo much for making this video :)

    If I was there, I would have hugged you. I also have same situation in my college days. But believe me, you'll be alright. I've faced it for 4 years. After that only I'm starting again. Ypu made me cry. It is the same story, same feelings, 'I belong to nowhere'. I understand you....🫂🫂

    3:41 You have managed to give me the vocabulary to describe the struggle that I had since year 1. I came from a similar background as you. I spent 15 years studying in the same international school in Thailand, ended up getting accepted into one of the top universities in Taiwan for my program, and also getting a government scholarship. Suffice to say, I was confident in my academics, extracurriculars, and my place in a larger community. It all came crashing down when I came to Taiwan. Due to my Chinese heritage, my Taiwanese classmates weren't able to discern me visually from local students - until I opened my mouth to speak. Despite being taught to read, speak, write, and understand Mandarin from the school that I spent 15 years of my life in, I wasn't able to understand certain cultural references nor pick up a "Taiwanese" accent.
    Although I am (generally) accepted by the some local students here and wasn't subjected to the treatment that you discussed, I always felt there was a fine line drawn between overseas Chinese and local students. I've always had a hard time to describe it. Maybe it's due to differences in academics, culture, and languages, but I have come around to accept it as part of the studying abroad experience. It's an adjustment.
    Thank you so much for sharing. It means the world to know that us international students are not alone.

    I had a similar experience but when I went to India. I am Indian but went to an international school in Italy so Indians thought I had it easy and thought I was dumb. So it was just similar to your experience!
