- I love nyc, but like any other cities, it has its pros and cons.
This was a reflective vlog thinking back on whether my "American Dream" has any basis to it or if it's an idea that's been ingrained in my head.
Anyways, food for thot.

i just always imagine ☂ waiting quietly in the corner of the room while dooby does her little morning preach
Lmfaooo this 😭💜
It’s Kevin now 😂❤
@@khalilahd. Bro you are everywhere.... literally everywhere 😅😅
🤣 same. I try to see if I catch him in the background
So cute😩😂
Honestly as someone who did the cliché thing and spent his twenties in NYC , I recommend the experience to just about anyone. Even if they think its not for them, because it is still singular and extremely hard to replicate anywhere else and I cannot deny the impact it has made in my life and I wouldn't trade the years for anything. If you're *kinda* into the idea, go for it. and yeah that ambient *danger* is half the fun tbh lol it pushed me out of my comfort zone. I'm a third culture kid, who has lived in a bunch of cities, who had a lot of ideas about what to expect and what I could handle. That place completely tore that shit apart.
I would only ever do it in my twenties and only with an exit plan because lifers who survive that unique state, are an exceptionally rare breed because it is *hard*. I cannot stress it enough like you said it takes guts to be there one, three , five , ten , twenty years. It is *hard* , its hard to see really close friends leave, its hard to keep grasp of a place that is perpetually moving forward and changing and that is before the tangibles (material monetary cost/cost to your psyche/etc). Sometimes in ways that you won't understand or will be increasingly alien to you.
But there's no where else I've lived on this planet that hits the same. When you're positioned to experience what it has to offer (this is both luck and a privilege) jump in! Just uh , don't wear your nice shoes and remain flexible for the endless barrage of curve balls.
Wow! Thank you for writing this, it’s quite inspiring
can you please elaborate on why its such place? /gen!
I went for my birthday (26) this past June, and maybe it’s because I grew up in the suburbs but wow even though I don’t think I could live there which is EXTREMELY HARD to begin with, I always find myself missing it though. After spending most of this year pretty stressed & depressed, it was exactly the zinger I needed to get back up. It truly does not hit the same which is probably why I’m already planning for the next trip😂
@@pluto3603 New York is just one giant pre game lobby
@@pluto3603 I'd be hard pressed to summarize my experience in a single YT comment but its not JUST the concentration of people (you can get that in any comparable major city) its the the weird push pull. The space between the hard to describe chaotic energy you've felt if you've visited and extremely weird sense of community even most introverted (raises hand) person will find themselves in in spite of it.
I won't romanticize it totally; I often felt stressed, exhausted, broke and isolated. The city can be dreary and feel dystopian (you'll feel economic inequality *sharply* don't let nobody lie to you about it). I can't deny the humanizing connections I made with people I'd see everyday who turned into quick friends simply because we shared in a struggle that the place makes so tangible and in your face.
Despite the city's reputation, you'd get this weirdly positive energy from complete random strangers on a spring Friday commute simply because we survived another week/winter/whatever and this isn't something you have to explain.
You'll feel utterly disgusting in the summer simply trying to get around...you'll have many sketchy subway rides.... you'll see your checking account empty....you'll regularly wonder why you'd subject yourself to any of it.
Then you'll experience a snowy night in the city that actually occasionally manages to be quiet and how weird and beautiful it is...
Or you'll get to do some-thing that definitely would not have been a thing in my case from the small town I'm from.
you might achieve something major in whatever career you're pursuing because you kept working at it long enough for your luck to meet you at your grit
you'll find joy in some small random cramped dive you actually look forward to getting cheap happy hour drinks in because almost everyone there is from somewhere else (often somewhere far!) and you do actually feel welcome (and its not weird because the people there likely have seen it all) ..but then you'll also find it shuttered unceremoniously months later.
you'll get weirdly defensive when friends/family visit and shit on it for not being "stable" or "safe" (read: boring) or homogenous enough.
And like none of this shit is assured , your individual mileage will vary. But the sheer number of collisions in the experiences of the people who are there so much FEELS possible. Yet it never REALLY claims to be comfortable and it wouldn't because it isn't.
IDK I really haven't gotten the same exact mix of all of this anywhere else.
I just found out that my best friend who lives far away had cancer and it's been a very strange less than 24 hours. I was not prepared to feel the goosebumps and the boost I felt from watching your meet and greet, thank you for that.
If she doing well? What cancer does she have?
I don’t know why but I teared up so much seeing all of the people showing up at your meet and greet!
Probably the funniest thing I've seen all year.
damn, this hit me hard. sometimes, I feel so deeply overwhelmed and stressed with being alone. I try to push the negativity out of my system but I fail to tell myself, things are rapidly changing and life is changing all around me. eventually I'll find myself and someone may find me as well.
Omg I feel you
your not the only one
Go start a blog.
@@jodi9361 There are people out there who can understand you. Yes, maybe around you right now there aren't many, but they are out there. Ultimately, the more people you meet, the more possibility there is for you to find a deep connection with someone, whether that is in a romantic, companionship or friendship way. I know what you mean in that you can feel lonely even when surrounded by people. It can get better if you push yourself. You can do it :)
@@SilentSzZ so sweetly written
The Cantonese quarrel in the shop is the most asian thing ever. And I love it 😂
i heard the woman said go die hahahaha
Literally came to the comments to say that Cantonese arguing brought a warm fuzzy feeling to my heart ❤❤❤
“The reason I feel more alive in NY is because the threat of death is more immanent” THIS IS EXACTLY WHY I WANT TO MOVE OUT OF THE COUNTRY. It’s kind of sad that the US is basically known for that at this point but to agree with your bigger point you’re right. Home or belonging is within you. You don’t have to be tied down to a place. Love to see you grow and evolve ❤
Wise words. 👍💯❤
Blame the liberal cities, they don’t prosecute criminals. They let them go. So having the gun laws, I tend to agree with it more everyday.
@@sleuth-hb4ht right, it’s the liberals, fake news and wait… I feel a conspiracy theory coming on.
@@sleuth-hb4ht delusional lmao
@@LitCactus oh okay, then keep wondering why crime is so rampant in California and New York
New York is rarely the answer, but it's good that it brings more questions!! I think it's nice to be here for more or less in your life and figure out
I love that you finally found your someone Dooby. I can see he’s really happy to follow you on your journey! happy for you girl
You haven't even met him. Lmao
@@michaelpark5681 - It’s not Kevin ?
@@michaelpark5681 Michael Park, it seems that you've been throughout Tina's journey longer than the Umbrella man ever has... Does this mean something?
@@fairlysleepy Huh?
Ok that one chef at that restaurant… the camera was spot on him and I was like 😍😍😍😍🥰!
It was quite joyous to see the meet and greet so well attended by such a broad spectrum of diverse people. It really speaks to the content caliber of her vlogs. \¥/
On the contrary I would argue that only people on the one end of the spectrum showed up: the brain dead ones.
Hi Tina😊 As someone who has been moving around all her life wondering where my true "home" would be, the intro hit hard. I've felt the same way about LA the way you feel about New York. It's been my dream to live in LA ever since I was little. Finally made it happen by moving to the city this year, but within a few months of being here, I quickly realized that even my dream city was not the answer to all of my prayers. I love it here and I believe that there is certainly a city/country that brings out the best in each person, but I'm learning that it's up to me to open up my heart and make myself feel at home wherever I may be.
Hey Tina! Just want to say thank you for your content - your videos inspire me everyday, your authenticity is so refreshing. Keep up the good work
I almost teared up too 🥲 from your meet n greet part. I am so proud to be a Dooby 🍞 I and so many others will continue to support you and your beautiful journey thru life. Love from Florida
i'm glad you got to go! i teared up too, she seems so nice and it's no wonder we all love her so much. i'm hoping the next meetup is in dc, and happy holidays
@@Kanu03 I didn’t get to go 🥲 but whenever she visits nearby I’ll definitely be there in line :3
this is alll i need during this gloomy and shittty phase! btw gotta appreciate how much efforts you put for us and the quality content you provide🤌🏻literally cheers me up everytime!lovee ya
This day is turning to a good one! Thanks for uploading dooby 💗
I thought the video had started but it was your Home Lore ad 😊. I agree, every place has its pros and cons and it is different when you're actually living in a place or visiting/dreaming of living in that place. Loved seeing all the places you ate at in this video! 💕
I literally smiled throughout this whole video and I don’t smile lol - thank you Tina for making good quality content I can escape to when needed 😊
That meet and greet was so heart warming and exciting. Congrats on 3M!!
Yay thank you for posting and making my day better! 😊
Great end to my day with the amazing vlog from my favourite streamer 😊❤️
I can relate to where you are coming from when you talk about the " American Dream". You quoted it so well I loved it. Lots of love always
The meet up clips were so wholesome! You deserve it dooby how cool!!
It's so heartwarming seeing people support you and care for you this much! ❤️
There always comes a time where I think some arbitrary change like moving somewhere else or something out of my control finally happens is going to entirely turn my life around. But in the end i’ve realized nothing changes without me changing myself. I can’t always hope for something to happen and I need to make things happen on my own.
Thank you for putting to words the facts of being in a situation that does bring more vigilant awareness. Feeling more alive because the opportunity for death is greater.....well done.
Thank you for following your heart ❤️
Thank you for making such wonderful content that not only makes me hungry and more excited to try new food, but distresses me when life’s anxieties are high! Much love and thanks for the smiles 😁
Man... I teared! Love you Tina! Thanks for keeping it real! Keep making great content! Hope to be able to meet you in person someday!
Seeing so many people turn out just for you was so heartwarming and amazing! I can only imagine how you felt after THREE hours of the meet and greet 😊
Great video like always 👍
How did the Korean Tina and the Dutch Kevin eventually meet? Love’s mysterious attraction force is so interesting, especially when the story is told.
He's Danish
@@nutellalatte7522
Oh he’s from Denmark? That is why we need a tell all for clarification.
@@MichelleMuck555
Eventually she will share her story. They look good together.
@@DaestrumManitz
Hopefully in a Q & A format.
@@MichelleMuck555
It would be interesting to hear his perspective.
Did I just get a Dooby commercial.. during a Dooby video?! Sis you have made it queen lol
Dooby your vlogs to me are like a warm hug on a cold day 🥹❤
Me and my sister always argue on who is a true dooby fan, I love your videos so much, you are just you not acting to be someone else for other people, I love your video and you too
I live in NYC and tbh as long as you know where to go gangs aren’t really problem, now I’m not saying you can’t get robbed but just know how to act or where to go
I can't wait to visit my home again but thank you for the recs. Thankful as well ☂️ is willing to be on the vids with you. So happy to see you both happy.
Seneca said “this is our big mistake to think we look forward toward death. most of death is already gone. Whatever time has passed is owned by death. We die every day. “
Annyeong Doobies!
Death metal rules! 💀☠️🔥🤘🏿
Oof that 9.03 minute moment.
Lets just say he was chef's kiss!
Oh queen is back 👑💓🥺
I love that you hit the popular hole in the wall places rather than the trendy places. ♥️
Very interesting vlog. You do make a good point that home can be anywhere, and a person does not have to be bound to it
love u Dooby 💕💖
if youre going to NYC the Staten island ferry is a must for all newbies... well atleast that was my favorite part of the trip
I’m loving Tina’s ad with Tina’s vid back to back to start my day, her ad is the only one I’d watch in full
at this point no one can stop me fallin for her amazing humanity with less care personality 🐦
You’re falling for her? She seems so conceited and INSANELY privileged and yet still unhappy. Plus she’s always making videos about how she doesn’t want a boyfriend because her standards are too high
@@brendilladederp wait doesn’t she have a boyfriend? Is she with him throughout this video. If you look in her other videos she admits that that is her boyfriend
@@brendilladederp yah she comes off as very privileged and entited, none of this is relatable to a working class person like myself
@@john-john2873 none of this is meant to be relatable bro working class ppl would NEVER have the time for this shit??? its deadass her full time job
@@maiphan1032 she talks about her problems like we all can relate to them. Like the time she talked about how her "rich friends" could do whatever they wanted, but she couldn't despite having a wealthy background unlike 99% of her viewers
It’s been a few months since I’ve watched your videos & im watching them all. I’m so proud of you !!!!! I got super emotional ! Keep pushing toward ! I hope one day to meet you and tell you your my inspiration to start yt ily
I wish that you can make a foodtour about some South East Asian countries like Vietnam the Phillipines Malaysia in the future. Love your works, your videos a lot
its so diificult to realize what 3 million means.
i feel the turn out for the meet and greet huge but putting into perspective thankfully small ^^
good job doob :)
So proud of you Tina. Sending you a virtual hug!
Another good day with doobydobap!
Love the morning talks! ♡
I wish really good and happy life dooby because you deserve it and wish you come back to Korea and continue making your amazing videos❤❤
Congratulations Tina for 3 M subscribers 🎉🥳 I’m so happy to see how far you’ve come. It’s good to see you are having a great time in NYC with ☂️ man. You two look lovely together. I didn’t know you did pre-pharmacy, I’m literally a newly qualified pharmacist. 😆 I’m glad you enjoyed Vietnamese food hence I’m Vietnamese. Can’t wait to see your next vlog and I knew many people would show up for your meet & greet 😁.
I would’ve patiently waited in the cold to meet you too! (Just the small issue that I live in Australia). Happy 3mil T :’)
Awww!!! I would have waited in line to meet you had my trip to nyc been a couple weeks later. I've been following you for years and have loved watching you evolve. Thank you for amazing content.
umbrella man is hair goals. looks like he could've been a witcher in a past life!
omg! the amount of love from you fans 😍🥹🥹 melted my heart 💜
FIRST OMG 12 SECONDS AGOO 💕💕💕LOVE UUU
Suddenly having flashbacks to walking the Brooklyn bridge on a windy day and clinging to a friend thinking we were going to be blown off the bridge
That cucumber bit needs it's own short love it. Totally everytime I try to get my partner to drink water or eat a veggie. Hilarious! So glad to see everyone showing up for you! I would if you were near too!
Gun permit laws are enshrined in the Constitution by the Founders, and keep us safe. NYC, although the greatest city in the world has become less safe, but due to mismanagement - not gun permit laws. NYC has some of the strictest gun laws, hence the high crime rate. This is true for all cities with strict gun laws b/c criminals don’t follow laws.
I love how you just stuff your mouth with food unapologetically and with grace, it's so wholesome
imagine if Dooby did a collab with Mai Pham while she was in NY. They dont have exactly the same content but their chaotic energy would fit so well 😂💀
Leaving New York is hard as hell. I get the fever to move there alot. I guess just really think about your priorities. 😊
Stop you are making me cry i love u and u deserve the love and success congratulations 🤍🤍🤍🤍
I know really. When she was expressing her appreciation, for the overwhelming attendance at her meet and greet, it was really heartfelt. I think I started to blush! 😊
It's late night here and i was having a bad time after a smol rejection and remembered someone said Dooby's video is healing and i tuned into youtube and randomly picked a Dooby's videoooo. Yea i admit it brings me out of my current reality but sadly I'm now turned from sed to hungry :)
The "my best friend's wedding" restaurant was almost spot on lol. The vibe was 100% there. Thanks for the nostalgia.
I can’t believe I got to meet you that day! It was always my dream as you are my biggest inspiration for my culinary goals 🥹 I’d never thought I would pop up in one of your videos 😆😆
If anyones wondering I’m the girl in the brown beanie (which I crocheted myself!) at the end of the line at the meet and greet 😊
🎉👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽💝💝 seeing everyone who could show up too meet you was awesome!
I Love you! You inspire many, including me! ❤
here to watch a doobydobap video and ended up watching her whole ad for home lore without even realizing 😂 love you and your content, it’s amazing!! ❤️
idk why i’m dying at him telling you that’s already enough food and you blatantly ignoring and then suggesting even more LMAO
you've come so far!!! i'm in college now and you inspire me to also make make make on youtube and to just push through! fighting!
the howl ring 6:38 🥺
Would love to get to know umbrella man's personality more! He seems very stoic.
Never been so early Dooby, ily 😘
Go to Philly or somewhere in NJ! The East coast is the best coast.
Did I just see a dooby ad on doobys video?? I loved it and didn't even feel like skipping like i usually do loll
I don't know whether it's weird or not but I feel energised whenever I watch your videos doobie😭 (especially vlogs )
i absolutely adore your videos! never change doobie
What is your favorite part of New York. I go there almost every week and live 5 mins away. Personally I like Brooklyn the most
I like to be challenged but couldn’t imagine wanting to live somewhere where you feel u need to survive and constantly “hustle” simple things matter and if more people realised they’re closer to being homeless to being a multimillionaire they’d be more grateful for what they have
I’d never move to nyc. I used to want to but it’s not as appealing anymore with all the social problems, racism, homophobia and transphobia. I never thought being reasonable and civil would be political but here we are.
Always makes me wanna eat something after watching your vlog! 😍 haha please stay happy and safe guys, love you both! 😘🙏
that chef guy
Congratulations on 3 million subs Tina! You deserve it and more!
Thank you so much for focusing on the cute chef 😍😍😍
There was this man in the bible named King Solomon and mentioned there that he was the wisest man who lived yet despite his great wealth and wisdom he said “Everything is meaningless” (Ecclesiastes 2). Still can be applied today, isn’t it? The wealthiest and smartest according to Forbes aren’t the happiest. Inside our heart is a longingness that can’t be filled by people, material things, or places. Are we chasing the wrong things? But what if someone tells you that regardless of who you are and your status, you are deeply loved and that you are worthy. What if that someone can give you security and fill you to the brim with joy not just on this side of the earth but upto eternity. I will leave it with this verse “What’s the price of a pet canary? Some loose change, right? And God cares what happens to it even more than you do. He pays even greater attention to you, down to the last detail-even numbering the hairs on your head! So don’t be intimidated by all this bully talk. You’re worth more than a million canaries.”
Matthew 10:29-31 MSG
Experience is the best teacher and sometimes just plunge!!!
Haven't been this early for a video! Watching this before going to bed is such a treat. Much love from Singapore
Yayyy here first🥳🥳 dooobiiee
I love your vlog Dooby! 😍
We should all try to live life like death is tomorrow but that is easier said then done.
I’m sick and tired of living my 9/5 routine. Also most of us hate our jobs.
So happy to see the meet and greet part!! Also 100% agree CDG is the best Korean food in NYC
My, my, that caption caught my attention. I can't help but agree with it, after all only the living knows that they'll soon lay down. I found the caption profound.
New York and Philly?! How have I not ran into you TT oh well next time hopefully
Your vlog made my day tina!!!!!
You are absolutely crushing it. ❤
I never thought of ☂️ man much until this vlog… omg ull compliment each other perfectly ❤️
the chef was kinda hot ngl caught me off guard with his smile
I had one of your Home Lore ads come up right before this video and it really confused me and thought it was part of your video Lolol
I just saw a Doobydobap X Home Lore ad for the 3rd time. So proud of Tina!👩🍳
Nyc here.
It is literal survival mode constantly. Yes it’s not the dream unless you are a multimillionaire (which I am not)
Fellow NYCer her. I wish ppl would specify Manhattan/Brooklyn, because that’s really what they mean
