take risks when you have something to fall back on because if your risk fails you wont be miserable. she can always fall back on full time youtube as she is already making a good living of it.

TINA!!! I’m so so so excited to see all the amazing things that you do :) I love how you’re always pushing yourself to do things that excite you! It’s gonna be incredible I know it
As a person who has worked in the food industry, and in a restaurant, cooking is probably going to be the last thing on your mind when opening a restaurant. I dont know Doobydobap very well, but she seems like a person who loves cooking. But can your passion of cooking be the driving force when dealing with a restaurant? cooking is a very, very small part of opening and running a restaurant
I dontknow either. She feels to me like aperson who gets easily discouraged when things dont go her way. But shes very rich so its most probably going to be fjne
I tried to open a small cafe and failed and _then_ I worked in F&B. Later after 9 months at work I realized I stopped making mistakes, meaning it took me 9 months till I was proficient in dinner service or could run a cafe alone on a quiet day... But previously I tried to do the same as a business from zero experience! If she knows what she is doing that's alright and it's _just a risk_ like in any decision you make in life, but with limited experience it's all a massive risk that she may not be prepared for.
Woah this is so unexpected! I thought you would be working on a cookbook but this is so much bigger, daunting, yet exciting! I don’t imagine this will be an easy journey but trust the process, the people helping you, and most importantly, trust yourself. We will be watching and rooting for you, so please don’t give up - we doobies would like to be there personally one day to taste your delicious meals!
Very serious piece of advice here. If you are planning on using your Dooby Brand or any part of the Intellectual Property you have built on TH-cam in the restaurant then ensure you own that element 100%. Even if you have partners, investors or loved ones helping out financially, get contracts made that protect your IP and ensure it remains with you. The restaurant business is 50/50 at best, you don’t want to be in a position where all you content is part owned by other people should the worse happen. Protect yourself.
A RESTUARANT!! I am so happy for you, and if you're scared, it means you're reacting exactly the right way like any person who takes a risk reacts. It means you want this to work, and work it will. All good luck to you. Yayyy, rooting, always. Thank you for always choosing to tell your story. It's much appreciated!
After being in the game for 5+ years, I am now understanding everything so that just shows how difficult it is in this industry. Just know that being a home cook is NOT the same as being a restaurant cook/owner. If you have no experience working at a kitchen, then you will 100% fail. I would strongly suggest you work at a restaurant and work each position from the dishwasher to the manager. One very big lesson I’ve learned is to be mentally and physically prepared because this will be the biggest test of your life. Your life will go out the window, and you will be burnt out. Read any book on any successful chef and they will all have one thing in common. They all get burnt out. Just don't turn to drugs or whatever vices you have to cope. When you are ready to give up, stop everything and take a break. Don't be afraid to go on vacations and take as much time as you need. Adjust yourself and be ready to go again because If you're able to hold out and hang on, then within a few years I promise you it will all be worth it.
absolutely love your storytelling , always look forward to your vlogs while binge rewatching your old vlogs. No one does those better than you ❤️ thank you keep going Dobby ✨
I am seriously rooting for you and tbh proud of the way you challenge yourself. I always looked at challenges as a boundary and not an opportunity to grow so that's such an eye opener to me rn thank you. I wish you the best of luck! I am sure you can slay this ❤❤❤
as someone that have been watching you for a long loooong time and have been manifesting for this kind of miracle to happen, i genuinely want to say that i am very very proud of you, tina. the things u say, the actions you do, the way you deliver your story, all that have inspired me A LOT especially in making decisions and taking risk in my life too! i know its normal to feel lost and wanting to do better at times but whenever it gets too much, just remember that there is a person out there (me) that always look up to you and find comfort in everything you do!! goodluck for the upcoming process, ily!!!!! 💞
there's alot of wisdom in the staleness thing. as with content creators, keeping things fresh throughout just vlogging is a tough ask in the long run, since the space is always extremely competitive. expanding your business model beyond just vlogging is both as risky as it is necessary in ensuring you retain both your brand presence as well as keeping your knives sharp. end of the day, it can only be as bad as an expensive lesson learnt if you fail, and a lucrative franchise if you make it through. godspeed.
The hiccups at the dining table was so cute I almost started crying happy tears bc that’s the kind of human connection I wish for anyone, whether it’s romantic or platonic
Good luck and congratulations on a new chapter of your life. We love you Tina. Keep inspiring and keep making great content. I’ve been watching you for a good 1.5 years now.
Here after the closing restaurant video. Reading the comments in this video pointed out all the things they mentioned was the reason they were closing down...
I'm so happy for you Tina! And watching you always trying new things and growing up is such a BIG inspiration. Will definitely take a visit to your restaurant!
In regards to not knowing what you’re documenting with your videos, I believe it’s your life. You have made a documentary of a girl who is trying to find herself in Korea and making a living whilst doing what she loves. It’s so inspiring and I believe if you follow through and work hard, it’ll be great content and an even better reward for you in the long run. Don’t stress, keep focusing on yourself, and have fun. Life isn’t about an end goal. It’s about the journey before you meet your end. Love you bunches Tina. Thank you from one aspiring cook to another. Cheers!
Tina, I must say that this was a very eye opening talk and you made me remember this mindset about life that I forgot about while passing through hard times. Thank you, I feel like it will have a really big impact on how I grow… Also about the restaurant decision… Omg this is so big and so exciting, I am so so happy for you. Even if it doesn’t works out I can see that you will get so much out of it as growing in the life and job field. But still… From the first day you started this TH-cam journey, I was able to see the high quality of your work and even you were able to increase that too. And because of so many other things, I can see that you will do a really really good job at this new thing you are getting in✨ Feel like you’re a distant friend , so, hope to see you some day🫶🏻 maybe even see you in your restaurant🥹🤍
Don’t wanna rain on your parade, but you have no business being in the restaurant business. Even if you know the business well, its crazy tough to make any sort of profit and is a crazy tough business to begin with. I would also strongly recommend against doing this venture with a BF, cuz the minute you and he have issues, it will spill into the business and make it even tougher. And, if the two of you end of not working out, its a complete and utter disaster waiting to happen. I’m all about taking risks, but take it from someone who did something very similar and it caused me a LOT of hardship. I was so stoked about spreading my wings and getting into a new business venture and thought I could learn on the job, but I was very wrong and ended up spending a LOT of money and time and in the end it was just a money pit. I should have listened to my father like you should have listened. I want to support any young persons dreams and decisions, but at a minimum, I hope you and your partner have a contract that stipulates what happens if one of you want to walk. Just for fun, and 100% not saying this is your situation, but you may want to watch the Netflix special entitled “Bad Vegan” about a famous NYC woman restaurateur who married a shady hustler opened the first raw vegan restaurant in NYC that was highly successful and how they hustled $6M out of investors. She claimed gaslighting and manipulation, but still wound up in prison.
@@Daisy0701 at no point was anything I said was rude. Direct maybe, but not rude. Case in point, she hasn’t even opened the place yet and now dealing w freezing pipes and probs w the tiling. And this is BEFORE the place even opens for business. Look, hospitality in general and especially the restaurant business is a true labor of love, but important to be realistic about things vs cheerleading.
I appreciate your take on trying to tell your story! Not all the time people realize in order to create a good story, you have to know how it will end in order for you to find a start. I love your emphasis on individuality and your transparency about everything very excited to follow your journey!!
@@kcdelar if you can’t handle this scenario I would say “this is why”: imagine Friday night, you are super busy and patrons are waiting on turnovers. Your dishwasher snuck out the back to buy his drugs and disappeared. Meanwhile the toilet is plugged. Are you ready to get out of the kitchen to deal with the bathroom? So many more scenarios that I can think of.
Tina sharing her struggles, and tbh just the most trivial thoughts going on in her mind, are the best things about these vlogs 🥺 Love every vlog and will continue to love future ones!!! Glad you're taking a leap of faith. All the best to you, Tina🌻
In a similar boat, Tina! Today is my first day of being self employed, I'm nervous, but I'm so thrilled at the thought of blazing my own trail. I have faith in me to be able to make it happen, and I have faith in you too!! Wishing a community of support for the both of us. You've absolutely got this.
I’m at the cusp of taking a big risk right now as well and I can’t tell you how inspiring and reassuring this video was ❤️ I have full faith in you, you’ll do great things with this restaurant and I can’t wait to follow along!!
I’m so happy for you and can’t wait for what’s to come! You don’t know how many times I’ve referenced your videos for recipes - anything from doenjanggook or myeolchi bokkeum to smexy mashed potatoes. The way you present your food is so simple yet sophisticated and beautiful. You are full of innovative ideas and I love how you incorporate traditional recipes and put your own twist on it. Hwaiting!! ❤
dooy i started watching you from the start and i know how much you struggled we love you .I honestly have learnt sooo much from you and i can watch your videos for hours .DO WHAT YOUR HEART SAYS and dont be afraid .YOU CAN DO THIS
I’m taking a pretty big leap of faith in my life right now, what I’m doing might not seem like a big deal to other people but it is for me…. And hearing you talk about your fears reminds me that there is SO much waiting on the other side of things we’re scared of doing - you were scared to do content & look at where you are now
loving the new vibes…the music really is a perfect 🫰🏼me and my daughter are so inspired by you! and love watching you take this risk in something that you love doing! Your “style” of vlogging is what makes us excited to be a part of your journey! We look forward to seeing what happens next! PS That look of food creativity and love for food in that last part with the scorched rice was really cool to see.
I agree with the taking risks thing, I went to a field I had no familiarity with (but really wanted to try) when I was choosing my major in uni and since no one around me pursued it it’s always so new but that’s what makes it exciting as well ! I’m excited to see where this will go and good luck ^^
Congrats on taking that big step! I can't wait to see the updates for the restaurant. When you were talking about being a vlogger and what your story line is, gurl this aint a tv show, you are a reg human being and we are here to just enjoy the ride that you take us on :) With that said, I absolutely love your storytelling in your videos, it's really inviting.
i feels so inspired by you sharing this. Although it's such a big risk, you'll grow and learn from it either way(even if it doesn't work out). Good luck with your restaurant and congrats on your courage to make such a decision! Hope to see videos of your progress journey:)
We might don't know much about restaurants business or can answer what was the concept that you've been doing exactly in the past video, bc honestly we seeing you as a healing machine. in my case I've been struggling with ED for a while now and seeing your video cooking or just filming what you eat for breakfast while talking about random topics are just so heart warming for me. ok what I want to say is don't be too stressed, you don't need to. I love doobydobap no matter what (ps. wish all the luck for your every new interest. Merry Christmas dooby ⛄🎄♥️)
watching the part about the "main story" or however you call it right now at 11:50. Just my 2 cents: i dont watch your content because i wanna watch a game of thrones style yt channel with a set story line. i watch you because you are funny, real and have chill vibes in your vids that entertain me. just show your journey and do not focus on creating the journey. as the famous saying goes "dont overthink shit". keep it simple.
Super Proud of u Tina on your big step!! WILL CONTINUE TO SUPPORT U IN WHATEVER PATH U CHOOSE✨️ Can't wait to see the new content u put out in the future - 🇵🇬
Congrats to your new adventure 🎉. Do share the location and would love to visit!! I am so putting this in my itinerary for June 2023. Hope it will be up and running by then!! ❤
This is exactly how you grow in your 20s! I also went through the similar process recently and that’s already so brave of you to share the process with public. You are such an inspiration, hope you know that 😍
this vlog had a great energy im excited for your new adventure. you'll never know if you dont try i have a great feeling about this new journey for you its gonna be amazing💕
Dooby just remember YOU are the theme. I’m not sure about others but I watch your videos to watch you and your journey. You’re charismatic and unafraid to put yourself out there, take risks, be passionate. Your story is interesting.
CONGRATS!!!!!!! Super happy for you. You’re still so young & it’s the perfect time to take risks in pursuit of your dreams. I think you’re doing amazing. Thank you for sharing your journey and I look forward to the updates and watching your dreams flourish!!
Omg Doobs I’m so so proud of you!! This is going to be such a fun new chapter in your life ❤ it’s incredible to see how far you’ve come in just a few years, you truly are so motivational I’m so excited for you 😊
1. overthinking = anxiety (just know things will always work out, and tell yourself that) 2. You seem to know many local restaurants. Don't be afraid to talk and get advice from those people/owners. They seem to know what they are doing (successfully).
Im so so proud of you and tears are falling down my face while watching this vlog because seeing you grow into the person you’re becoming really inspires me too for allowing myself to feel the unknowingness and fear. I relate too much because i am also same age as you and being with you in this journey made me realize a lot of things :))
i would definitely recommend working in a back of house position even just for a little to see how all aspects of a restaurant run. unfortunately, it isn’t all fun and games creating recipes and cooking food, which i am sure you know and are learning. but you’ll also pick up on little things, such as making sure your food has cooled completely before storing or putting a lid on, and labeling the sides of containers rather than the top. wishing you all the best on your new journey and looking forward to watching you continue to learn!
Definitely a big risk, but I think it's worth it and you'll make it through. Dooby having a restaurant, if I lived in Korea I would definitely try to go every day. Good luck! ❤
I cried while watching this. You make me question myself and my own life choices a lot (in a good way) when you talk about taking risks and putting yourself out there. This year has been filled with a lot of what if's and shitty moments for me so I hope to bring some of your inspiring, risk taking energy into the new year with me. I love your vlogs and how no 2 are the same. Keep doing you and sharing your life with us! We're all rooting for you dooby!!🥹
First of all *HOLY* *SHIT* opening a restaurant is like seriously the best way to utilise all ur knowledge and i don't know why I feel so proud of her seeing her progressing in life Best of luck Will be following u on the way
better to try something and fail at it than regretting never trying it. worst thing you can do is doing the same thing your entire life. even if its the best and you earn a lot of money. so proud of you! without failure, no progress. keep going doobey
hey Dooby! I am so proud of you to achieving the mindset you have, a very healthy one, and wish you the best of luck with the restaurant!! It will be really difficult, but you'll learn so much. While there will be tough moments, there'll also be plenty of good moments as well. And if it doesn't work out, just be thankful that you gave it a go nonetheless, no harm no foul! You challenge yourself not only for new experiences, but experiences that will help you grow as a content creator/chef/person! You got this. I know we're all rooting for you.
Nothing ventured, nothing gained. This is a great opportunity for you taking on a restaurant opening. I am sure the two of you will make a great team and this will provide an ample source for content creation.
Deep down inside of every cook, chef has a desire to own their own restaurant and present their own culinary creations. Maybe the two of them are living their life’s dream together!❤
@@MichelleMuck555 Having been acquainted with an established restaurant many moons ago, it can take a good five years to build up a clientele before generating a profit. It really takes dedication and a dream to succeed.
I think the storyline/storytelling aspect is just a bonus of your vlogs and not the main attraction. The reason why ppl watch your vlogs is because they like your down-to-earth, funny personality. I hope your decision to opening up a restaurant is because you want to actually run one and not just see it as content to vlog. Best of luck either way since true failure is not trying.
GIIIIIIIRL I AM SO PROUD OF YOUUUUUUU 😭❤️ can't wait to see the place, hoping i get to visit someday. But i also totally hear you. Change is scary but it is a good challenge, especially if we hope to evolve ourselves 😤 Much love to you both! Best of luck for sure TwT ❤️
Dooby - I have to say that you’re one of the most initiative-taking people I’ve come across :) I’m constantly in awe at the life you’ve created and continue to create for yourself. I know it seems like there’s a large influx of people who are doing bigger things, but it’s truly rare to see someone be so willing to do these things even with so many people telling you otherwise! I really admire that quality and am wishing you the best :) 💕 You’ve done more in a year than people sometimes do in several (or at all). Looking forward to see how this all works out.
Never work together in a relationship, particularly in a startup which stress in overdrive will spillover onto the relationship. Speaking from bitter experiences.
Wow! I was shooketh when I heard that u were opening a restaurant, but in a good way! I hope everything goes well for you, and I can’t wait to see your journey! It’s definitely a big risk to take, but I’d like to think that u can make it. Ur the best dooby❤❤
doob, it’s so inspiring to listen to u. this video comes at a similar time in my life where I have also applied for a new job, one I might not be the most ideal fit for due to limited experience, but one I wanted to take a risk for. I hope for the best for us, and hope to visit ur restaurant one day we know it will be BUSSIN
I've been loving the Doobie interupting doobie and back to your regularly scheduled doobie ads. Cheeky. Many well wishes for your new adventure! Take time and do as much research, find resources and you will be great. No way you wouldn't!
with your youtube channel as free promo, the restaurant is almost guaranteed to be a success. another youtuber i follow became accidentally successful on youtube and went viral before their book was released and their book became the number 1 new york times best seller for months. and i’ve tried a few of your recipes so i know the food will be good. you got this!
I really do wish that you succeed and congrats!!!!! To be very honest I always wondered that why haven't you opened a restaurant because your cooking is BOMB!!!!! and I am so glad that you're doing it now and taking big baby steps!!!!!!. Again many best wishes for the future, we are rooting for you. You are truly an inspiration.
my jaw dropped! but now i'm smiling - excited to watch you explore this new chapter. it certainly is daunting and there WILL be tough times, BUT you're going to get so much good out of it too. lean in, girl!

I'm so happy about your new journey! Starting new things is always so scary but the most fun part of living :')
In regards to not knowing what you’re documenting with your videos, I believe it’s your life. You have made a documentary of a girl who is trying to find herself in Korea and making a living whilst doing what she loves. It’s so inspiring and I believe if you follow through and work hard, it’ll be great content and an even better reward for you in the long run. Don’t stress, keep focusing on yourself, and have fun. Life isn’t about an end goal. It’s about the journey before you meet your end. Love you bunches Tina. Thank you from one aspiring cook to another. Cheers!
Tina, I must say that this was a very eye opening talk and you made me remember this mindset about life that I forgot about while passing through hard times. Thank you, I feel like it will have a really big impact on how I grow…
Also about the restaurant decision… Omg this is so big and so exciting, I am so so happy for you. Even if it doesn’t works out I can see that you will get so much out of it as growing in the life and job field. But still… From the first day you started this TH-cam journey, I was able to see the high quality of your work and even you were able to increase that too. And because of so many other things, I can see that you will do a really really good job at this new thing you are getting in✨
Feel like you’re a distant friend , so, hope to see you some day🫶🏻 maybe even see you in your restaurant🥹🤍
Don’t wanna rain on your parade, but you have no business being in the restaurant business. Even if you know the business well, its crazy tough to make any sort of profit and is a crazy tough business to begin with. I would also strongly recommend against doing this venture with a BF, cuz the minute you and he have issues, it will spill into the business and make it even tougher. And, if the two of you end of not working out, its a complete and utter disaster waiting to happen.
I’m all about taking risks, but take it from someone who did something very similar and it caused me a LOT of hardship. I was so stoked about spreading my wings and getting into a new business venture and thought I could learn on the job, but I was very wrong and ended up spending a LOT of money and time and in the end it was just a money pit.
I should have listened to my father like you should have listened. I want to support any young persons dreams and decisions, but at a minimum, I hope you and your partner have a contract that stipulates what happens if one of you want to walk.
Just for fun, and 100% not saying this is your situation, but you may want to watch the Netflix special entitled “Bad Vegan” about a famous NYC woman restaurateur who married a shady hustler opened the first raw vegan restaurant in NYC that was highly successful and how they hustled $6M out of investors. She claimed gaslighting and manipulation, but still wound up in prison.
EXACTLY my thoughts. It's a recipe for disaster and I am just surprised more people are cheering her on rather than giving her sound advice.
Get the point but there’s no need to be rude though
@@Daisy0701 at no point was anything I said was rude. Direct maybe, but not rude.
Case in point, she hasn’t even opened the place yet and now dealing w freezing pipes and probs w the tiling. And this is BEFORE the place even opens for business.
Look, hospitality in general and especially the restaurant business is a true labor of love, but important to be realistic about things vs cheerleading.
I appreciate your take on trying to tell your story! Not all the time people realize in order to create a good story, you have to know how it will end in order for you to find a start. I love your emphasis on individuality and your transparency about everything very excited to follow your journey!!
Rule 1: never open a restaurant until you’ve worked every position in a restaurant. Can’t wait for the awesome content.
Thankyou for ruining the surprise for me❤ Saw this comment before the video even started 😂😂
Maybe her boyfriend has
Exactly.. I think she’s doing it partly for her boyfriend. Nonetheless, when you get the opportunity, why not?
@@kcdelar if you can’t handle this scenario I would say “this is why”: imagine Friday night, you are super busy and patrons are waiting on turnovers. Your dishwasher snuck out the back to buy his drugs and disappeared. Meanwhile the toilet is plugged. Are you ready to get out of the kitchen to deal with the bathroom? So many more scenarios that I can think of.
@@neoLover23 LOL this is like pretty accurate lmao
Tina sharing her struggles, and tbh just the most trivial thoughts going on in her mind, are the best things about these vlogs 🥺
Love every vlog and will continue to love future ones!!! Glad you're taking a leap of faith. All the best to you, Tina🌻
your weekly vlogs and shorts are the reason why im thriving every week honestly! your videos are like my rewards for a long week of thriving 🥹🫶🇵🇭
Same 💖🇵🇭
In a similar boat, Tina! Today is my first day of being self employed, I'm nervous, but I'm so thrilled at the thought of blazing my own trail. I have faith in me to be able to make it happen, and I have faith in you too!! Wishing a community of support for the both of us. You've absolutely got this.
I’m at the cusp of taking a big risk right now as well and I can’t tell you how inspiring and reassuring this video was ❤️ I have full faith in you, you’ll do great things with this restaurant and I can’t wait to follow along!!
I’m so happy for you and can’t wait for what’s to come! You don’t know how many times I’ve referenced your videos for recipes - anything from doenjanggook or myeolchi bokkeum to smexy mashed potatoes. The way you present your food is so simple yet sophisticated and beautiful. You are full of innovative ideas and I love how you incorporate traditional recipes and put your own twist on it. Hwaiting!! ❤
Another session of FREE THERAPY
You took the words out of my mouth
Literally same ❤
I do food reviews while im baked on my TH-cam channel
Congratulations on this new journey, Tina!! I'm so happy and rooting for you!
dooy i started watching you from the start and i know how much you struggled we love you .I honestly have learnt sooo much from you and i can watch your videos for hours .DO WHAT YOUR HEART SAYS and dont be afraid .YOU CAN DO THIS
Love to watch she is growing and I feel lucky to be here. Spread your wings Tina. Lots of love, always full of love for you
I’m taking a pretty big leap of faith in my life right now, what I’m doing might not seem like a big deal to other people but it is for me…. And hearing you talk about your fears reminds me that there is SO much waiting on the other side of things we’re scared of doing - you were scared to do content & look at where you are now
Wow yea definitely needed to see this video!
loving the new vibes…the music really is a perfect 🫰🏼me and my daughter are so inspired by you! and love watching you take this risk in something that you love doing! Your “style” of vlogging is what makes us excited to be a part of your journey! We look forward to seeing what happens next! PS That look of food creativity and love for food in that last part with the scorched rice was really cool to see.
I agree with the taking risks thing, I went to a field I had no familiarity with (but really wanted to try) when I was choosing my major in uni and since no one around me pursued it it’s always so new but that’s what makes it exciting as well ! I’m excited to see where this will go and good luck ^^
Congrats on taking that big step! I can't wait to see the updates for the restaurant. When you were talking about being a vlogger and what your story line is, gurl this aint a tv show, you are a reg human being and we are here to just enjoy the ride that you take us on :) With that said, I absolutely love your storytelling in your videos, it's really inviting.
i feels so inspired by you sharing this. Although it's such a big risk, you'll grow and learn from it either way(even if it doesn't work out). Good luck with your restaurant and congrats on your courage to make such a decision! Hope to see videos of your progress journey:)
We might don't know much about restaurants business or can answer what was the concept that you've been doing exactly in the past video, bc honestly we seeing you as a healing machine. in my case I've been struggling with ED for a while now and seeing your video cooking or just filming what you eat for breakfast while talking about random topics are just so heart warming for me. ok what I want to say is don't be too stressed, you don't need to. I love doobydobap no matter what (ps. wish all the luck for your every new interest. Merry Christmas dooby ⛄🎄♥️)
So proud of you!!
Go for it Girl! Reach for the stars. I love your outlook on life.🎉
We are always here, rooting for you!!! You are always so inspiring ✨💖
Congratulations, Tina. Can't wait to try it when it opens. So excited to go on the journey with you!!!
watching the part about the "main story" or however you call it right now at 11:50. Just my 2 cents: i dont watch your content because i wanna watch a game of thrones style yt channel with a set story line. i watch you because you are funny, real and have chill vibes in your vids that entertain me. just show your journey and do not focus on creating the journey. as the famous saying goes "dont overthink shit". keep it simple.
Super Proud of u Tina on your big step!! WILL CONTINUE TO SUPPORT U IN WHATEVER PATH U CHOOSE✨️ Can't wait to see the new content u put out in the future
- 🇵🇬
I hope everything goes well for you ❤
Congrats to your new adventure 🎉. Do share the location and would love to visit!! I am so putting this in my itinerary for June 2023. Hope it will be up and running by then!! ❤
This is exactly how you grow in your 20s! I also went through the similar process recently and that’s already so brave of you to share the process with public. You are such an inspiration, hope you know that 😍
this vlog had a great energy im excited for your new adventure. you'll never know if you dont try i have a great feeling about this new journey for you its gonna be amazing💕
Dooby just remember YOU are the theme. I’m not sure about others but I watch your videos to watch you and your journey. You’re charismatic and unafraid to put yourself out there, take risks, be passionate. Your story is interesting.
This!
CONGRATS!!!!!!! Super happy for you. You’re still so young & it’s the perfect time to take risks in pursuit of your dreams. I think you’re doing amazing. Thank you for sharing your journey and I look forward to the updates and watching your dreams flourish!!
Omg Doobs I’m so so proud of you!! This is going to be such a fun new chapter in your life ❤ it’s incredible to see how far you’ve come in just a few years, you truly are so motivational I’m so excited for you 😊
Seeing you progress from your first few videos is just so rewarding. ❤
1. overthinking = anxiety (just know things will always work out, and tell yourself that)
2. You seem to know many local restaurants. Don't be afraid to talk and get advice from those people/owners.
They seem to know what they are doing (successfully).
Im so so proud of you and tears are falling down my face while watching this vlog because seeing you grow into the person you’re becoming really inspires me too for allowing myself to feel the unknowingness and fear. I relate too much because i am also same age as you and being with you in this journey made me realize a lot of things :))
i would definitely recommend working in a back of house position even just for a little to see how all aspects of a restaurant run. unfortunately, it isn’t all fun and games creating recipes and cooking food, which i am sure you know and are learning.
but you’ll also pick up on little things, such as making sure your food has cooled completely before storing or putting a lid on, and labeling the sides of containers rather than the top.
wishing you all the best on your new journey and looking forward to watching you continue to learn!
SOOOO PROUD OF YOU!!! Can’t wait to hear more about this next endeavor
Definitely a big risk, but I think it's worth it and you'll make it through. Dooby having a restaurant, if I lived in Korea I would definitely try to go every day. Good luck! ❤
Super exciting! Absolutely all the best on this new endeavor! ❤️🥰
Omg so proud of you Dooby, you're restaurant will be the first I try when coming to Korea!!
Hi Tina! You are such a beautiful story teller, and your videos are so therapeutic❤ Excited for your new journey!!
I cried while watching this. You make me question myself and my own life choices a lot (in a good way) when you talk about taking risks and putting yourself out there. This year has been filled with a lot of what if's and shitty moments for me so I hope to bring some of your inspiring, risk taking energy into the new year with me. I love your vlogs and how no 2 are the same. Keep doing you and sharing your life with us! We're all rooting for you dooby!!🥹
Dooby so excited for your new journey. Keep growing and never stop doing what you love. So excited for you. All the best❤❤
First of all
*HOLY* *SHIT*
opening a restaurant is like seriously the best way to utilise all ur knowledge and i don't know why I feel so proud of her seeing her progressing in life
Best of luck
Will be following u on the way
love the dooby ad before every video. it’s almost like an intro i like to sit through now :)
better to try something and fail at it than regretting never trying it. worst thing you can do is doing the same thing your entire life. even if its the best and you earn a lot of money. so proud of you! without failure, no progress. keep going doobey
Underrated comment.
hey Dooby! I am so proud of you to achieving the mindset you have, a very healthy one, and wish you the best of luck with the restaurant!! It will be really difficult, but you'll learn so much. While there will be tough moments, there'll also be plenty of good moments as well. And if it doesn't work out, just be thankful that you gave it a go nonetheless, no harm no foul! You challenge yourself not only for new experiences, but experiences that will help you grow as a content creator/chef/person! You got this. I know we're all rooting for you.
congratulations on the new position👍
So excited for this new chapter of yours Dooby 🥰
Nothing ventured, nothing gained. This is a great opportunity for you taking on a restaurant opening. I am sure the two of you will make a great team and this will provide an ample source for content creation.
Deep down inside of every cook, chef has a desire to own their own restaurant and present their own culinary creations. Maybe the two of them are living their life’s dream together!❤
@@MichelleMuck555
Having been acquainted with an established restaurant many moons ago, it can take a good five years to build up a clientele before generating a profit. It really takes dedication and a dream to succeed.
tina, your song selection is so groovy! and lyrically accurate lol love it!
I think the storyline/storytelling aspect is just a bonus of your vlogs and not the main attraction. The reason why ppl watch your vlogs is because they like your down-to-earth, funny personality. I hope your decision to opening up a restaurant is because you want to actually run one and not just see it as content to vlog. Best of luck either way since true failure is not trying.
can't wait to follow you along in this journey!!! wishing you all the best in this adventure xx
GIIIIIIIRL
I AM SO PROUD OF YOUUUUUUU 😭❤️
can't wait to see the place, hoping i get to visit someday. But i also totally hear you. Change is scary but it is a good challenge, especially if we hope to evolve ourselves 😤
Much love to you both! Best of luck for sure TwT ❤️
Good luck!!!! I'm looking forward to this. Best to study and meet the chef around!
I can feel the anxiety, but I'm excited for you and that you're going for it! Best of luck :)
Dooby - I have to say that you’re one of the most initiative-taking people I’ve come across :) I’m constantly in awe at the life you’ve created and continue to create for yourself. I know it seems like there’s a large influx of people who are doing bigger things, but it’s truly rare to see someone be so willing to do these things even with so many people telling you otherwise! I really admire that quality and am wishing you the best :) 💕 You’ve done more in a year than people sometimes do in several (or at all). Looking forward to see how this all works out.
Never work together in a relationship, particularly in a startup which stress in overdrive will spillover onto the relationship. Speaking from bitter experiences.
they will learn the hard way
Wow! I was shooketh when I heard that u were opening a restaurant, but in a good way! I hope everything goes well for you, and I can’t wait to see your journey! It’s definitely a big risk to take, but I’d like to think that u can make it. Ur the best dooby❤❤
You don't regret the things you do, you regret the things you could have done. Proud dooby here! Love you Tina!
Please I hope you don’t actually believe this you can most definitely regret things you do/did
doob, it’s so inspiring to listen to u. this video comes at a similar time in my life where I have also applied for a new job, one I might not be the most ideal fit for due to limited experience, but one I wanted to take a risk for. I hope for the best for us, and hope to visit ur restaurant one day we know it will be BUSSIN
New chapter unlocked
I've been loving the Doobie interupting doobie and back to your regularly scheduled doobie ads. Cheeky. Many well wishes for your new adventure! Take time and do as much research, find resources and you will be great. No way you wouldn't!
with your youtube channel as free promo, the restaurant is almost guaranteed to be a success. another youtuber i follow became accidentally successful on youtube and went viral before their book was released and their book became the number 1 new york times best seller for months. and i’ve tried a few of your recipes so i know the food will be good. you got this!
Taking a risk and challenging yourself is for the brave and courageous! You will find a way and I can't wait to watch!
What workout do you use? Also NEVER stop using this editing style, it’s so relaxing and beautiful
I really do wish that you succeed and congrats!!!!! To be very honest I always wondered that why haven't you opened a restaurant because your cooking is BOMB!!!!! and I am so glad that you're doing it now and taking big baby steps!!!!!!.
Again many best wishes for the future, we are rooting for you. You are truly an inspiration.
05:50 "Landlord seems nice also" did not age well 🥺
my jaw dropped! but now i'm smiling - excited to watch you explore this new chapter. it certainly is daunting and there WILL be tough times, BUT you're going to get so much good out of it too. lean in, girl!
omg moments before disaster😭😭😭 i hope it works out
