Hi Ghib. Its nice to know how your Singaporean wife and in-laws found acceptance with you, as a Japanese. What about the reverse? How was your family's experience accepting a Singaporean as your spouse?
Ghib. Your wife is a keeper. The moment she said : “I don’t believe in spending thousands on branded stuff. But I believe in spending on good food!” 👍🏻WOW!👍🏻 Her parents have brought her up well.
As a singaporean married to a korean, I feel JP and KR cultures are almost quite similar, haha. Me & my hub also often speak about our different cultures. Kr also have their own instant rice so your rice reminds me of that. Thanks for sharing yr video!
@@Bagellatte The most crucial similarity is indeed that both of them buy fancy sofa and never sit and eat on the sofa. They only use the sofa as a back support!
do a video where Your Wife cooks a Japanese dish and You cook a Singapore Dish and then both of you rate each other dish for authenticity would be like a cook off
such a wholesome vid!! love it. As for insects, I think many guys are scared too... We manage to temporarily overcome fear in NS but it returns to us when we become "civilised" again after leaving the military. It's like a psychological thing. Alsoo the food looks great!
Someone in US did a study before where they asked ladies what are the things that woman find attractive in men and that they are more likely to give their mobile number to the men on their first meeting. The women picked : good sense of humour, able to cook and knows how to play musical instruments . Looks like Ghib got all 3.
Are you able to cite that study? I've only read about sense of humour, height and wealth being the most important factors. Besides, asking for someone's phone number takes less than a minute. Not sure how it's possible to cramp so much information within that short span of time.
Studies where they ask people what they would do are grossly inaccurate. People often say they will do one thing but in practice, they do something else.
Thoroughly enjoyed this fun yet insightful conversation btwn u n ur lovely wife! It’s true tt it takes all kinds to make e whole world, incl sg. Sg is one of e most cosmopolitan cities in e world & our varied cuisine n cross-cultural marriages show it. Materialistic pple r everywhere, not just concentrated in a particular country. There r nice, wonderful & humble pple in sg too. U just need to know where to find them & get to know them! Looking fwd to more hb-wife interaction vids! 👍💪👩❤️👨
You are not alone. I am scared of cockroaches and I had gone through NS. I have insect netting to prevent them and other pests like lizards to enter my home.
When I first watch Ghib SAN’s on screen, he looks like a very cheerful and friendly young man, and spoke only Japanese, I was shocked when I realised his English is this ‘powerful’ on his subsequent video clips.
I have colleague(s) who are Japanese, I feel abit out of place sometimes like I am talking too loudly. So yeah, I get what the Mrs is saying like they are very formal with people. Btw I love this video, it's really cute!!
The wet hair thing... It literally takes me an hour even at a salon with 2 people to blow dry my hair so honestly i don't have the time to do it every morning after I've showered. Imagine trying to blow dry it myself with a regular hair dryer -
I love your videos. You give very interesting insights and perspectives of our culture and psyche (as well as your own, of course). I am becoming a huge fan of your wife. Hahaha. She seems to have similar views as me, and is as equally forthright about them. I do agree we tend to have a negative rep in worldwide media. Do you have any of your opinions as to why that is the case?
As a Singaporean man who has been to army, I'm the first to flee if I see a cockroach. NOPE. NOPE. NOPE. I'm not wearing boots at home. I can't stomp on them.
A few of my husband's friends, when they discussed about buying private condo, quite a few of them thought of their children, as they were worried about the inflated property prices later.
It looks nice. Doesnt rlly taste that good though. Theres this skin outside, which makes it not that nice and gives it the brown colour. Its basically less processed rice
I was actually one person who leave my house with freshly washed wet hair. 1 reason being that hair dry naturally seems smoother compared to blow dry (at home; salon different la) I don't do that these days as I washed my hair the night before 😁 Nice video. Your wifey is great too.
It's hard not to think about money when many essential things are expensive, like housing, and housing... And perhaps housing. Once you go over that hurdle, then everything is pretty alright. Oh, and finding a partner to get housing, since you can get better mortgage deals when finding a partner.
Ghib San, I also have a sensitive question to ask you: Why did you choose a Singaporean (foreign) girl to be your wife, instead of a Japanese? Must answer this ok?
There's this temple featured in the video At 9:15 , where is that place located at? Which other videos of ghib ojisan does it appear in also I'm very curious!
I loved Japanese food especially its tidbits. Not only they taste good but the packaging are top notched. That's why u bother to wrapped the presents so nicely. It's in-grained in your culture.
Ha freedom to feel uneasy 😂 I once saw a foreigner couple in Tokyo when the lady was putting on manicure on her nails, and the guy was holding the manicure for her. Definitely the first time to see it!! Would love to see some cooking vlogs again!
Have you and your wife had arguments before? Trust you do, but do you both make it a point to talk and compromise before sleeping or both of you prefers to give each other some personal time before talking about it again?
Yep, especially when you eat out in restaurants in Singapore u need to get ready to pay extra minimum 17% tax….10% service charge plus 7%(GST-goods and service tax)🤣🤣🤣👍💪
I have to say , one thing I don’t like about Singapore is the peer pressure to contribute money for obligatory stuff like colleagues’ birthdays, their grandparents’ funeral etc even though you don’t feel like you know the colleague well. In Australia, it’s more casual, you can contribute any amount if you want to or just write a simple card etc. I also have to say my first impression of Japanese men is that they are very chauvinistic and expect the women to serve and bring their slippers when they come home from work. And Japanese men comes home from work only when its really late
That is entirely dependant on your work environment's culture. It certainly does not happen in my work place. We discretely pass an unmarked envelop around, so no one will know how much others contributed, if at all.
I don't know any japanese guy who don't expect to be served by their wives or even girlfriends. Frankly I get the feeling they intentionally avoid going home and even bothering to develop a deeper relationship with their partners after marriage. I see you cooking for your wife. You are quite different in that sense and appear to have a good relationship with your in laws.
11:45 lol. your wifu...... reveal your secret......... so funny..... you can get a window fly/mosquito screen for your window, but it will cover the beautiful view from outside.
wah Ghib the yakimeshi using instant rice is a good idea, i only buy Koshihikari , only eat japanese rice,, but this instant i will try it,, oishi so,,, natto wa tabenai kedo hehe,, Next week wa,, Shin nen Omedetoune, Yo i otoshi o,,, Ghib n Family ,, Huat Ah,, 👍✋😬🍺🎊🎉..
sgprean working japanese cuisine abroad here - a coworker showed me natto - or rather how delicious it could be/it looks when he wolfs it down , usually poured over whatever was family meal that day. over warm rice deep soy and a raw egg , theres nothing like it. also a question - whats the best way for a singaporean to pick up spoken japanese? (sans a tutor) from starts through to intermediate so forth. thought i'd ask as you may understand our diction and linguistic traits etc. thank you in advance arigato gozaimasu g-ojisan / or anyone xx
Actually Orientals (J, K and C ) have more in common than differences. However the differences are magnified due to history, languages and most of all geopolitics.
Attention all GUYS Firstly , I just got divorced. Sadly I was not given any monies for the matrimonial flat. Reason because I trusted my ex wife by asking her to pay the mortgages and she was a foreigner. Whether she is a foreigner or not. My advice to all the GUYS IN SINGAPORE DON LET YOUR WIFE HANDLE THE PAYMENT OF YOUR MATRIMONIAL PROPERTY CAUSE IF YOU DIVORCE MOST LIKELY THE COURT WILL GIVE TO HER. DON LISTEN AND YOU WILL REGRET
The wife is right, girls , please dry up your hair and comb it properly before stepping out of your home, you might not know it, but many people find it very gross seeing damp and wet hair on a girl. No hard feelings!
Yeahh I’m also curious like how you know your wife and how you all get together and end up marriage haha.. and also how u all used to each other living lifestyle etc
First of all Happy Holidays☃️🎄❄️ Do both of you understand you're respective languages....and do you speak, not fluently but at least can understand....Thank you
Maybe you should do a episode with your wife friends who have serve ns and see your reactions or thoughts on it because ns is not just going to the army there’s some in the police and SCDF
Ha haa.... so funny, Ghib afraid of insects 🤣🤣 frankly, china/taiwan/India all use mosquito net. But S'porean dont have the tradition or habit of using it... It works! I got them installed by a taiwanese company here...
Gald your wife has finally decided to join u in your videos in her real voice. Perhaps we will get to see her face soon too. Keep this new style coming.
Really like how your wife is not pretentious and speaks how she usually does. More wife related videos please! 😊
Your wife sounds like a very nice and well balanced lady. Very gracious of her to not think big spenders are showoffs so mature.
Hi Ghib. Its nice to know how your Singaporean wife and in-laws found acceptance with you, as a Japanese. What about the reverse? How was your family's experience accepting a Singaporean as your spouse?
Your wife has a very sweet voice. She now joins u in your streaming. So nice that both of u can work together and produce videos. Cheers!
Hope to see Ghib teaching his wife how to produce videos..?!! :)
Yes, she's really supportive😁
Ghib. Your wife is a keeper. The moment she said : “I don’t believe in spending thousands on branded stuff. But I believe in spending on good food!” 👍🏻WOW!👍🏻

Definitely! Strong hierarchy system in companies, culture of over-working etc, many things in common.
@@GhibOjisan thats what my hub always says! :) look forward to more videos Ghib!
@@Bagellatte The most crucial similarity is indeed that both of them buy fancy sofa and never sit and eat on the sofa. They only use the sofa as a back support!
I like how you keep zooming in on the orangutan during your conversation lol
do a video where Your Wife cooks a Japanese dish and You cook a Singapore Dish and then both of you rate each other dish for authenticity would be like a cook off
So cute Ghib, you nailed the Singaporean accent. Your wife sounds very sweet and demure. Love this video. More please.
You both r such a cute and compatible couple. Love your cooking shows. 🥰
such a wholesome vid!! love it. As for insects, I think many guys are scared too... We manage to temporarily overcome fear in NS but it returns to us when we become "civilised" again after leaving the military. It's like a psychological thing. Alsoo the food looks great!

The instant rice looks delicious, will definitely check it up.
Ghib, is it true that in Japan, when you apply to companies for jobs, you have to handwrite all your resume and not print them? I saw on tik tok.
I used to do that! It's to show that you are spending a lot of time and effort for the company and you are serious about the role.
@@GhibOjisan omg. That's crazy. The level of commitment is top notch.
@@GhibOjisan So I guess there's a whole industry based around this where people pay for others (with neat handwriting) to write it for them?
Hahaha… I think generally Singapore girls who became wives are very tolerant of their spouses.
"Insects fly only scream scream scream run here run there" 😂😂😂
You are not alone. I am scared of cockroaches and I had gone through NS. I have insect netting to prevent them and other pests like lizards to enter my home.

"Wow so loud" 😊 when you eat natto. Cute how your wife expressed it. I had natto for breakfast in a Yokohama hotel. interesting.
I have colleague(s) who are Japanese, I feel abit out of place sometimes like I am talking too loudly. So yeah, I get what the Mrs is saying like they are very formal with people. Btw I love this video, it's really cute!!
素敵な奥さまとのやり取り楽しかったです、声かわいい💓

The wifey really like that brown rice lol! I was watching her spoon, she's trying to control her intake but she can't help it haha!
I love your videos. You give very interesting insights and perspectives of our culture and psyche (as well as your own, of course). I am becoming a huge fan of your wife. Hahaha. She seems to have similar views as me, and is as equally forthright about them. I do agree we tend to have a negative rep in worldwide media.

Nice to hear wifey's natural voice, instead of the speed-up disguised voice :)
Your wife very patience, soft spoken, 👍
My Chinese Singaporese wife said she couldn't agree more with what you shared in the video!
Request to stream on cooking of typical japanese food and introduction on japanese food.
As a Singaporean man who has been to army, I'm the first to flee if I see a cockroach.
NOPE. NOPE. NOPE.
I'm not wearing boots at home. I can't stomp on them.
Same. I am too scared to even stomp on them. I refuse to dirty my shoes with roach juice coz then the shoes become associated with fear permanently. 😂
If only cockroaches become extinct.
Don't worry Ghib Ojisan! I've been through NS but I'm not buff and still scared of almost all insects.
Haha Ghib I watched the whole video to catch how you guys met and ended up dating, but that was not answered 😅
Nice, have a happy new year!❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
A few of my husband's friends, when they discussed about buying private condo, quite a few of them thought of their children, as they were worried about the inflated property prices later.
If you can afford condo, it makes sense as the value is better in future and no strict rules of Hdb.
Love this new video as always 🙂👍🏼👍🏼 The brown rice looks so good where to buy it?
oh just saw it's coming to Singapore soon 😋
It looks nice. Doesnt rlly taste that good though. Theres this skin outside, which makes it not that nice and gives it the brown colour. Its basically less processed rice
Yea unfortunately they are still preparing for selling in Singapore.. the brown rice is really unbelievably chewy and moist!
@@linglingwannabe9135 thats my first impression when I eat brown rice for the first time. After that I’m lovin it! 😬
I was actually one person who leave my house with freshly washed wet hair. 1 reason being that hair dry naturally seems smoother compared to blow dry (at home; salon different la) I don't do that these days as I washed my hair the night before 😁 Nice video. Your wifey is great too.

Ghib San, I also have a sensitive question to ask you: Why did you choose a Singaporean (foreign) girl to be your wife, instead of a Japanese? Must answer this ok?
Someone I wanted to marry happened to be a Singaporean😁
In one of his earlier videos he mentioned how they met. I think it was while he was backpacking, either in SG or somewhere, and then he met her.
hahaha Love this clip! So authentic and relatable. Thanks Ghib and wifey 😀 and Happy New Year!!
Literally just ordered the same rice 2 minutes before I watched this video lol
There's this temple featured in the video At 9:15 , where is that place located at? Which other videos of ghib ojisan does it appear in also I'm very curious!
So many rice eaten ! Your wifey loves rice !
Interesting conversation, it is nice to know how different Nationality couples feel about each other. Thank you for sharing!
Mrs. Ghib is so straightforward and hilariously savage 🤣
That is a great video and she definitely has a balance of though which is cool indeed 😎👍
I loved Japanese food especially its tidbits. Not only they taste good but the packaging are top notched. That's why u bother to wrapped the presents so nicely. It's in-grained in your culture.
Ghib, you can take a look at AmazingSeal’s magnetic insect screen. I'm planning to install those for my future home because I also hate insects. Haha.
Hi, where to get the magnetic insert screen?
Ha freedom to feel uneasy 😂
I once saw a foreigner couple in Tokyo when the lady was putting on manicure on her nails, and the guy was holding the manicure for her. Definitely the first time to see it!!
Would love to see some cooking vlogs again!
奥さん、ほんとうに声が可愛いですね！😊

Should have eaten the rice with that Momoya chilli! :D
Aiyah forgot!🥲
うちは非常食としてパックご飯置いていて、期限が近づいたら食べてます★
そんなに美味しいパックご飯があるんですね‼️食べてみたい😆
僕らは特に玄米にハマりました。こんなにモチモチした玄米は初めてです😁
Hey Ghib, are there any natto brands you love / recommend? Would love to know
Both of u r soo adorable lah,Jia Yu;)*
I like this video, can have more?? 😁😁👍👍👍
Hi Ghib, I like your brown leather sofa. Where did you buy it ?
When it comes to culture, feels like Mrs Ghib is more open.
I have to say , one thing I don’t like about Singapore is the peer pressure to contribute money for obligatory stuff like colleagues’ birthdays, their grandparents’ funeral etc even though you don’t feel like you know the colleague well. In Australia, it’s more casual, you can contribute any amount if you want to or just write a simple card etc.

Huh? In Singapore, you can also contribute any amount you want. Maybe you just worked in the wrong company.
That is entirely dependant on your work environment's culture. It certainly does not happen in my work place. We discretely pass an unmarked envelop around, so no one will know how much others contributed, if at all.
とても楽しい動画でしたー！
網戸はマジで欲しい！！笑
炒飯旨そうでした！
Ojisan where can we get those rice?
Could you share how you got together with your wife or how you got to know each other? Really curious of it :X
I think he did mention before in his previous videos. Can’t rmb which is it
Japanese is my favourite food. Cooking channel next please! I recently learnt about dashi 😎
I would loveee to try the brown rice!!
You pan looks really cool ! Where did you get it from?
I don't know any japanese guy who don't expect to be served by their wives or even girlfriends.

you can get a window fly/mosquito screen for your window, but it will cover the beautiful view from outside.
It is my hope that one day your wife will agree to appear on screen. That would be very popular episode.
That's quite a lot of rice for 2 people. Mr Orangutan behind seemed to be enjoying his air-time. Haha!
wah Ghib the yakimeshi using instant rice is a good idea, i only buy Koshihikari , only eat japanese rice,, but this instant i will try it,, oishi so,,, natto wa tabenai kedo hehe,, Next week wa,, Shin nen Omedetoune, Yo i otoshi o,,, Ghib n Family ,, Huat Ah,, 👍✋😬🍺🎊🎉..
Your wife reply 02:32 is 👍. You have the freedom to do whatever you like, I also have the freedom to feel uneasy about your like
I agree. I always feel uneasy to see people’s moles. Moles are disgusting.
Very good conversation 👌

「自由ではあるけど、こっちがあかんってなる自由もある」
この意見、良いです。多様性、多様性と叫んで一方的に多様性（を盾にした意見）を押し付けて、こちらの意見を封殺する人たちもいます。
Ghib you seem to eat a lot but still stay in such good shape. How frequently do you work out?
sgprean working japanese cuisine abroad here - a coworker showed me natto - or rather how delicious it could be/it looks when he wolfs it down , usually poured over whatever was family meal that day. over warm rice deep soy and a raw egg , theres nothing like it.
also a question - whats the best way for a singaporean to pick up spoken japanese? (sans a tutor) from starts through to intermediate so forth. thought i'd ask as you may understand our diction and linguistic traits etc. thank you in advance arigato gozaimasu g-ojisan / or anyone xx
You're not alone, there are many Singaporean guys (usually the late millennials to the gen Zs) afraid of insects especially cockroaches
And they will immediately jump off away from tye floor
How did u meet your wife?
Actually Orientals (J, K and C ) have more in common than differences. However the differences are magnified due to history, languages and most of all geopolitics.
Attention all GUYS
Firstly , I just got divorced.
Sadly I was not given any monies for the matrimonial flat.
Reason because I trusted my ex wife by asking her to pay the mortgages and she was a foreigner.
Whether she is a foreigner or not.
My advice to all the GUYS IN SINGAPORE
DON LET YOUR WIFE HANDLE THE PAYMENT OF YOUR MATRIMONIAL PROPERTY CAUSE IF YOU DIVORCE MOST LIKELY THE COURT WILL GIVE TO HER.
DON LISTEN AND YOU WILL REGRET
Where to buy the instant rice and wagyu and the salted Konbu? Looks so yummy!! Very hungry to watch during my intermittent fasting 🤣
Instant rice is not available in Singapore yet unfortunately. Will update the description box when the rice is available!
Japanese supermarket, and Don Don Donki and Korean supermarket definitely sells Instant rice :)
perhaps can try Medi-Ya too at Millennia walk or the other outlet at Great world Basement. if Don Don Donki dont have it
The wife is right, girls , please dry up your hair and comb it properly before stepping out of your home, you might not know it, but many people find it very gross seeing damp and wet hair on a girl. No hard feelings!
And then there are people like me who don't give a damn. Do whatever you want, ladies. It does not offend me. 😉
You should go apply for SAFVC or Voluntary Police Corp...maybe that will give a feel of what is serving NS...😆😆😆
The random zoom into the monkey cracks me up at first and then it just start to become creepy
So random lol 😂
11:10 The monkey is the wife
Ja matane, Mantappu jiwa!!!
Yeahh I’m also curious like how you know your wife and how you all get together and end up marriage haha.. and also how u all used to each other living lifestyle etc
First of all Happy Holidays☃️🎄❄️
Do both of you understand you're respective languages....and do you speak, not fluently but at least can understand....Thank you
I understand a bit of Chinese but my wife doesn’t understand Japanese at all. My goal is to become fluent in Chinese😀
was wondering, as ghib is diligently learning chinese, is your wife learning japanese?
She occasionally uses app to learn! But can tell she is struggling 🤣
Why use App to learn Japanese when there's a 24 x 7 free of charge native teacher around? 😅
What’s you guys’ go-to meal
Join SAF Volunteer Corps (SAFVC)!!!
Maybe you should do a episode with your wife friends who have serve ns and see your reactions or thoughts on it because ns is not just going to the army there’s some in the police and SCDF
Ha haa.... so funny, Ghib afraid of insects 🤣🤣 frankly, china/taiwan/India all use mosquito net. But S'porean dont have the tradition or habit of using it... It works! I got them installed by a taiwanese company here...
Gald your wife has finally decided to join u in your videos in her real voice. Perhaps we will get to see her face soon too. Keep this new style coming.
Eager to see her face😅🤣😂
ikr like how to find this type of SG woman in 2 years o.o
Hi Ghib, how did you meet your wife? In Japan??
In Singapore when I was traveling!
Ojisan, be part of us, join the voluntary police force to provide safety in spore and protect the country.
No need to be ashamed on the insects thingy, during my NS, a cockroach flew into my bunk, nearly all my bunkmates screamed and jumped onto their bed..
If only one day cockroaches be extinct.
lucky u Ghib your wifey don expect expensive bags lol she's a keeper lol
Not all Singaporeans are materialistic and $$ is not everything.
The orangutan is the video mvp
Where can we purchase the rice?
You are not alone - even the guys who went to NS, when insect fly in, they scream and run here run there
