'Stand-Up Comedy' Korea vs USA!
What do you prefer?
🙌
l like the U.S is my favorite but korean comedy is also great😍
Korea, since you wanna Embarass USA w/ that Corny Elf. Should’ve used Katt Williams, Dave Chapelle, Bill Burr, George Carlin, Richard Pryor, Joey Diaz, Eddie Murphy, Gabriel Iglesias, or Ralphie May. Any of those would’ve been G!
@@bryanbee1604 Gabriel Iglesias is so funny
the U.S. just has better stand up comedy. Especially since the crowd isn't as touchy. I like Kevin Heart, Kurtis Conner, Dave Chappelle, John Mulaney, and Chris Rock
Theyre taking some of these jokes too literally 😂. You don't have to think of them as real stories, just have fun listening to the way the comedian tells it
Yea, the problem too many people have is they think they're literal stories and not just made up scenarios to make a joke
Yeahh joke is a joke when both parties have mutual understanding
Kevin Hart is funny if you understand English, mannerisms of english, black mannerisms, etc... Otherwise just reading what he is saying will not hit the same.
Yeah, there could also be some adaptation mistakes or differences and they won't hit the same.
yh, idk if it's a cultural difference, but his teacher disrespected him so in this context his disrespect was appropriate, and most Americans would think so too. Plus, his insults were hilarious, but I think in Korean they don't really insult others in such a way
He is just painfully unfunny. He’s like the mindless action film of comedy only dumb people enjoy it.
@@lucasbieber9051yes it is especially with cussing. I know they cuss but us Americans especially northerners cuss ALOT 😂😂
No, Kevin Hart is not funny at all.
For Kevin's second stand-up, the joke wasn't the cussing, it was just taking liberties when your parents give you a simple instruction.
Exactly… lmao 🤣
Not exactly but also yes. It's a black culture thing, if your momma hear you curse for no good reason you getting smacked, she's gonna get her hot wheel track or wooden spoon.
Well the comedy skit where kevin cursed alot was the point of his joke. The premise was that he interpreted as a kid that his mom gave him permission to curse one time. So his kid mind thought he could only had that one opportunity that his mom let slide. So he took full advantage of that opportunity. 😂😂
KEVINS OLD VIDEOS ALWAYS HAVE ME LAUGHING
"SHE AIN'T GOT NO NIPPLES!" takes me out everytime😂
FRRR HIS OLD STAND UP IS THE FUNNIEST SHIT
i think the only thing koreans can joke about is sex because its such a taboo topic to them. while in other countries, they can joke about how others act, look, or even talk, basically everything else in the world besides sex.
nah it's just because stand up is still in its baby stages in Korea. My country went through the same thing where initially, most stand-ups did whole sets about sex and sexual stuff because it was shocking and the first time we were hearing sex being described like that but as stand-up has evolved and grown pretty huge over here, sex isn't really the focal point of most comedy anymore even though sex as a topic still remains taboo for us societally...top comedians here have branched off to all kinds of topics that are sometimes even too niche, but now we have experience as audiences and know exactly how to act and what to expect at one of these shows...Korean stand-ups will also start doing more observational stuff about other heavy topics like politics, religion and societal issues when they build a big enough audience that would protect them from people that might get offended..
yea and in the UK comedy gets pretty dark at times lol
@@hiidupiidu3292 you wrote a whole essay to prove the original comment right
But they are comparing American Stand up specials to Korean improv sets. Even most US improv sets are about Sex because it's the easiest thing to get laughs from.
@@Carlos-ix2nm i never said that op was wrong, just that the audiences that watch comedy mature over time even if the society there doesn't..so really, what topics comics choose to talk about doesn't have much to do with what is taboo and what is not taboo..
As soon as they get used to the fact that stand up has almost no boundries no topic or person in the room is safe. I think it will be a hit there. You have to be able to laugh at yourself, take nothing personal and just enjoy the humor in everything. Its often Adult humor too the more shocking the better.
They would never show Richard Pryor, George Carlin, or Eddie Murphy, and especially Red Foxx.
I never even considered if other cultures had stand up comedy before this. Now that I think abt it, I’ve only seen Korean comedians on shows like gag con or SNL Korea. Never would’ve imagined that stand up comedy wasn’t a thing for them.
It kinda doesn’t surprise me bc I beieve there are so many Koreans striving to be comedians, especially back then.
8:34 she really is conservative because that whole show was one of Kevin Heart's best. I've watched that comedy show so many times since I was a kid, I've lost count how many times I've seen that clip and it never fails to make me laugh🤣
Different cultures, Its not just the cussing I feel like they don't really relate to the story ....same as I don't really relate to the Korean comedians, feel like most of the Korean comedians their jokes were corny.
@@zoluhwa3508 the first 2 korean jokes were very on the nose and not witty. But I read that stand up is barley getting traction in sk so its evolving. Plus these jokes are maybe popular cause its easy understand
She said she’s not too comfortable with a lot of vulgar imagery or words, no matter the culture. It’s fine. Some people need a lesser dose of things
@@Loveselfloveall lol she still laughed to those jokes about sex
How she can be conservative if she laughing at sex jokes but don't like cussing in a diff language??? I think she was just shocked at the disrespect to the teacher
i think standup comedy is hard to translate. it's important that the audience speaks the same language and has knowledge of the culture from which the standup comedian comes from, if you have to read what they're saying it immediately loses it's punch. of course it can still be funny, but like in the case of the korean girls not getting kevin hart's swearing at the teacher bit, they didn't get it because they either don't know the language or the culture well enough to get the greater meaning beyond just what he's saying..
I’m Korean American and I’ve grown up on American style stand-up comedy. If I were to choose between the two? I prefer American style stand-up comedy more. I’ve lived in Korea for more than 15 years now and I’m so glad to see that stand-up comedy in Korea is slowly but steadily growing popularity in Korea.
Its so nice seeing them interacting with the Western culture too!
If they find the Korean porn joke "intense" then they are not ready for American comedy. HUGE cultural difference.
That Jo Koy bit ALWAYS makes me crack up! Including when he mimics other Asian accents, or when he talks about his mom!
They need to make a video solely on him, especially the whole video of what they showed
During the whole Korean act I wasn't shocked at all by the "vulgar" manner of talking 😭 I'm just so used to it in the US that it's not even funny anymore or surprising. I was like: wow, so tame! The 10 year olds down the street be saying the same things 🤔(Who gave those kids phones...)
coz we just see it as a way of expressing strong emotions tbh
Yeah I didn’t find it that funny I guess Korean like those types of jokes 😮
So, all comedians joke about in Korea is sex? That’s what I got from this video lmao they’re so repressed in that aspect of their lives that that’s all they joke about 🤣
Oh wow, they said what I said at the end lmao
I'm a huge fan of standup comedy and American comedians like to talk about difficult topics since the whole premise of stand up comedy is "no boundary". They talk about everything and heavy topics like politics, racism, school shooting, etc can be easier to talk about if the comedian is good with their jokes. I think that's what Korean stand up comedian in the clips were also doing. since sexual conversation is quite taboo or difficult to talk about in general, they make stand up comedy as kind of like a safe space to joke about it.
It's so bizarre to me to see people get so shocked by cuss words or sexual jokes, especially in a stand up comedy context where things aren't supposed to be taken seriously. Culture shock lol
kevin is so funny i swear, i’m glad they were able to react to him 😭
kevin hart is the best!!! I used to watch all his stand up shows/movies in middle school and he never failed to make me laugh!! in school everyone knew his lines
I'd really love to see them watch different comedians (Taylor Tomilson, preacher lawson, etc) because there's such a wide range of comedians that you can't really get by watching only a couple. ^_^
Taylor Tomilson is a good rec! She hits everytime!
i love taylor’s content!
Somebody hug Cha Cha, she thinks all stories told in standups are usually true🥺🧚♀️😇..
I had a bit mixed feelings about the Korean stand up comedians. While the jokes did get some laughs out of me I was constantly on edge cause we know how conservative many men in Korea are so I don't know if they will end up saying something that is misogynistic in my eyes since they did do only sex jokes.
Also I prefer if there are only a few sex jokes in between, not the whole show. But I guess it's normal that people who are still new to stand up start with taboo topics which is literally sex in Korea.
I think the language barrier had them confused on the Kevin hart teacher one. They didn’t know the joke was about letting him say 2 little cuss words and he went to school and said all the worst ones he could think of 😂
kevin is good, but for non-american audiences, sometimes, you can find it hard to related the context. the most international-friendly one is Fluffy i guess. Jeff dunham my favourite
Stand up Comedians often rely on nuance and delivery of their jokes. So it would make sense that Kevin Hart and JoKoy arent as funny to them, but here in America they are some of our top tier comedians
There is a comedian named Fluffy, and his are pretty wholesome. His is really funny and I think they would love his type of comedy.
Aka Gabriel Iglesias.
There are levels to stand-up comedy. Especially, across cultures such as Def Comedy Jam era would have been too much for them to handle. Maybe compare SNL vs. SNL Korea
Or Eddie Murphy during his RAW show. They would faint 😂
@@rai2423 They would have lost it 😂🤣🤣
The Korean standup comedians look like our small, local, semi-funny comedians.
yea they were very semi-semi-funny.
Pretty much in its infancy. Probably due to the culture. And time. They're pre-lenny Bruce level.
Yeah they actually made me cringe a lil cause there wasn’t much cleverness in the delivery and punchlines
I love these 4 love their reactions is so enchanting
I think KH is an AMAZING storyteller, and he can effortlessly hook you up in anything he's saying (': ! It's not just punchline punchline punchline, but I literally burst out and cried laughing AGAIN just from the short excerpts they shown (': ... For the fiest Korean comic, the using your mom's ID to watch adult movies felt very tame, but it made me smile and I could see how culturally fitting his sets were compared to the rest. (:
I liked seeing what Korean stand-up is like - I've often wondered what type of humour is used. But I'm severely disappointed that there isn't a single comedienne in this entire video. For anyone who's curious, Iliza Shlesinger, Taylor Tomlinson, Wanda Sykes, Fortune Feimster and Tig Notaro are must-watch entertainers in my opinion! 😉
I hope ChaCha never leaves OSSC! She's awesome!
yeah Also i like her honesty
Danny Cho is really underrated. His podcast is funny too.
Too bad youre cutting jo koy's part, it gets funnier when he reached vietnam bit😂.
Also, probably bill burr-russel peters n trevor noah bit will make them laugh more
For real, that part gets me every time! 😂
Yoooo, Korean comedy is AWESOME. What a great video. More of this please :) much love from the US
hope for more stand up comedians in Korea, seems like it would be a nice way to touch on more culture in a light fun manner
That Ostrich video is a classic!
I feel like a significant amount of that Kevin Hart time could've been swapped for the rest of that Jo Koy clip. The segment, I found, was extremely hilarious especially if you watched from start to finish. Those clips for Kevin weren't nearly as funny for the chunk of time they took (no malice intended) Also I would LOVE to see Preacher Lawson on here
agreeed
It's not even a competition... Norm macdonald, Patrice O'Neil, Bill burr, Dave Chappelle, EDDIE MURPHY.
We even have the greatest Korean comedian of all time who is American and had his whole career here Bobby Lee !!!
richard pryor too. I like kat williams as well
I've been waiting & hoping for a long time, for them to watch Bobby Lee. It would be best if it wasn't just his stand-up though, it's more his general attitude/humour.
C’est tellement marrant de voir que les insultes outre-mer et tellement pris plus naturellement et rigole comparé a la corée 😂😂 c’est amusant
The bit with the mafia joke was hilarious !!
It’s cause they don’t understand Kevin’s mannerisms and the way he talks and just everything. You need to really understand to find something funny fr. Just reading won’t hit the same😂
That show of Kevin harts old days as a comedian were GOLDEN times.
I couldn’t stop laughing at his jokes
They should have watched Gabriel Iglesias and Matt Rife too! It would have been cool if they could see some female stand-ups too. I think there's a slight difference between male and female comedy and the response to it.
Kevin Heart is so funny 😭 I didn’t really think much of it when he started cussing at his teacher since she disrespected him first but I get it’s different from each country
The rest of Jo Koy's bit about other Asian accents is hilarious
jo koy's humor is the "it's funny because it's true" kind. you can't even be mad at it because it's just true.
Cha Cha as usual the only one keeping it real/Wilding. Putting that ID number to good use.
I have a friend from SK studying abroad at our university and he takes me way too literally, so sometimes he's either alarmed at my jokes or gets kind of offended at them lol but it's nice to understand why
I realize that I have never seen a Korean standup routine before now hahaha, just gagmen.
People say Stand Up Comedy is about no bounds jokes, but to me I've always felt it was a balance of trying to do social commentary in a way that makes people think while laughing; much like other artforms I suppose.
Maybe it's why I do like the idea of this video, but wish there was other comedians besides Kevin Hart's, since his jokes would largely be about things relating to his pov on the world. I think if there's ever a second part to this, having more varied stand up acts from time eras would be as beneficial as taking race into account.
Do a pt. 2! Y'all definitely gotta have some Kat Williams in this 😂.
As a westerner, Korean is a very emotional language. It can convey deep emotions, with just one or two words. I love the Korean language.
Kevin is really a goat of comedy
Kevin is hilarious 🤣
Wish you showed some UK stand up too! It’s a different breed of offensive haha
Kevin had me crying TEARS BRO I NEVER LAUGHED SO MUCH LIKE DAT
Ahh i see the problem, they really took everything seriously. Most of stand up comedian material are made up or exaggerated, so you just enjoy the sheer absurdity of it. As long as you understand that, i think you can enjoy every standup no matter from which countries it is.
Funny enough, when i think about which comedian are easier to translate their material for other countries to enjoy, i can only name one, its Jeselnik. You dont need to live in the US or even understand the language to enjoy a good ol simple build up punchline comedy like his.
Missed opportunity, shouldve showed them some old bobby lee stand up.
Glad they enjoyed lol, also we do tend to use more swear words just as a way of expressing ourselves so hopefully they can look past that and enjoy the jokes
Should’ve definitely shown them Matt Rife. He is good with audiences and bouncing off them to make the joke. Love seeing the comedic differences for stand up comedians in each country with such different views.
I think I liked the American jokes more because they talked about diverse topics (ostriches, teachers, accents), but every single one of the Korean comedians only talked about sex, sex and sex!
Maybe it’s just the people that you picked and there’s actually a wider variety among the Korean comedians, but the sex jokes are too crude to be funny for me
I kind of wish they mentioned Jo Koy being Filipino-American, since he’s Filipino-American and that most of his content is about the Philippines 🇵🇭
LMFAO! This is the funniest OSSC video yet.
You can really tell they were fake laughing when Kevin hart went..💀😭
Be cool to have them react to some stand-ups from Bill Burr.
Honestly, I feel bad they don’t understand and appreciate Kevin hart cos of cultural differences 😢 - I didn’t find the Korean guy that funny either 🥲
Should've had Dave Chapelle, he's the Greatest of All Time in comedy.
im gonna be honest, kevin hart's not even the funniest U.S. comedian but he was def the funniest one in this video
i died i was on the floor with kev
I love Jo Koy so much.
I mean the unnie at the left end smirking like idk but we know 😂🤣!
"Is 15 min short?" Girl, what?!?!......YESSSS!!!
PLEASE show the ladies some Dave Chappelle. His new stuff is great like his Jussie Smollet bit and SNL monologues
they should totally react to spanish stand-up comedy
This was a good one!
If I could make a request for the next standup, try Katt Williams!
There are many good standup comedians I would like to see a full video dedicated to just one of them. Dave chapelle is a must and jimmy carr roasting his audience is also a must. Then jimmy o yang, preacher Lawson and Chris rock are good as well.
OK but the Taegeuk joke had me DYING!
It is interesting how a lot of korean comedies have a slightly different kind of humor, but standup feels relatively similar between the two.
I think comedy is super cultural, it’s really hard to be “in on the joke” when you don’t deeply understand the language and mannerisms, just another reason to want to learn about other cultures!!!! ❤
I'd like to see them watch some Dry Bar Stand Up
NAHHH CUZ ALL THEM CLIPS HAD ME WHEEZINGGGG
LMAOO i love Kevin hart😭😭😻
There’s a cultural difference. As an Asian American I don’t find Korean comedy all that funny. Their movie plots are funny, but it’s the delivery. Whereas gag shows really aren’t funny to me. I enjoy Kevin Hart and Jo Koy’s older shows.
The korean ones weren't really hitting for me, but maybe its a translation issue... idk I'm happy their getting into comedy though
these girls are my favorite !!! lol
Those are not my favorite American stand up comics there. So I wasn't able to feel super proud of how funny they were.
Oh Lord you have to show them more comedy bits/comedians. My recommendations would be Billy Gardell, Robin Williams, Gabriel Iglesias (the Racist Gift basket story) and Tracy Morgan's most recent Netflix special Staying Alive. For starters. ;)
PD next time show them "Gabriel Iglesias show" they won't be disappointed.... 😊😊
as someone who lives in nebraska, kevin hart mistaking a crane for an ostrich is hilarious
다들 영어 잘하시나보네… 한글 자막도 달아주지..
they should have shown a variety dave chappelle is kind of the legend when it comes to stand up eddy murphy and chris rock as well are my fav i could listen to their jokes on repeat. the korean comedians were funny too
I sure culture difference makes a big factor because watching the Korean ones I’m mostly confused but the American ones I understand
wanna talk about sex?
koreans: yes!
you should've showed them that guy doing other asian accents the japannese one is the funniest hahaha
I'm Korean but this video sums up why I don't like Korean standup -- it's ALL about sex. Legit like being in middle school and boys learning about that word for the first time 🙄. And of course the audience wants to mask the awkwardness they feel so they act like middle school classmates who laugh along to seem cool.
12 korean comedy clips vs only 2 americans. What a comparison
ugh why are all the standup comedies in Korea talking about s*x? Is it, like, normal or are these the only ones? I don't think I am open-minded about this kind of comedy. All I did was frown the whole time. I guess my humor and Korean people's humor are totally different.
Kind of? I’ve walked out of so many Korean comedian shows because of that they were talking about
