Do you guys want to move to Korea too? ^^
yes iwich to visit korea and meet you ..... and iam not a boy
Yes I do! I researched about the type of professional industry I'm in and I don't think I can flourish in Korea. A part being that it's a competitive world and it's the type of industry where they don't really need foreigners. Nonetheless, this video has been insightful! I might go to Korea for a month of vacation instead. Cheers!
Yes
Yes someday☺
omg yes...when I have money lol
Your skin is flawless, so glowy and beautiful 💕 💕
awwwehhhh so sweet
ITS called make up :)
Vasilica Mihalcea her skin has to be extremely smooth and hydrated for it to look that way with makeup on. she very clearly takes care of it and does have beautiful skin, so its not just the makeup.
just a little true story. i am russian girl, who has been to korea one time. me and my gf were walking looking for cheap food and one man passing by just asked "Russian?" and I said yes without even thinking. He grabbed my hand and pulled in the side. So, this is how I understood that russian is similar to prostitute.
but a lot of times, that disrespectful notion is everywhere, people don't respect eastern european women, and tend to either fetishize them or make them all out to be golddiggers. I was in Paris and this dude went around a group of tourist and started asking every women, if she was Russian,a nd even though I'm half russian, I didn't say shit. People are gross
Because Koreans are racists.
Is the man Russian or Korean?
@@Ami-wt5yr russian man definitely wouldn't be so
Prostitute or not the behavior of that guy is wrong and is abuse.
u sounds like u have found someone special in Korea 🌹🌹..😊😊
She is in love
Omg I can feel the cuteness😩💞 all my best wishes!
of course she would, she is so pretty.. many korean man will like her
How Korea changed me:
I have prettier eyebrows now😂😂😂
- Xenon - HAHAHHAAHAH LMAO
I’m currently living in Seoul!! I just moved here in August for my semester exchange at Yonsei. this is my first time living alone and far away from home even though at 21 years old, but i’m loving it so far:) i relate so much to what you said!!! Especially on food, it’s easier for me to be healthy in los angeles and my stress right now since im vegan vegetarian is how to adapt towards korean food-i’m also considering trying out for modeling just to see how it is ! I hope our paths cross during my time in seoul bc i would love to talk to you more about life in korea (but also good places to eat) 🥰
linamarr How do you try modeling in korea? Like, isn‘t it Harder for People from the west to be succesfull there 🤭❤️ whats your plan? I‘d like to know more about it ☺️
Omg! I'm going to Yonsei as well, but I will arrive on February of next year. I'm so excited!!
i'm also an exchange studen here:D
wow yonsei!! i knew this university after Maddox enrolled lol
I lived in Korea...probably before you were even born and korea was definitely not as developed (1996 to 1999). My favorite thing about korea back then was the people and the friends I developed. There were a lot fewer foreigners like me (I'm canadian) and meeting up with others instantly created bonds. The Korean natives I became friends with were also amazing and I am still friends with some of them today. I can say that I entered adulthood in korea.
Knowing that you were also struggling with loneliness but eventually found good friends gives me so much hope for the future! I've been living here for a month and yeah sometimes it feels a little lonely but I'm keeping my hopes up thanks to you! ^^
Stanlish keep fighting through ! You’ll find friends ^^
SISSEL thanks!! I will!
Try on meetup.com they have groups for all kind of interests (sport activities, travel, art stuff, language, new in town, etc...). It's a worldwide platform so I believe you'll find some groups in South Korea as well :).
You seem so much happier and more open since when you first started your channel~I’m so happy
I'm living in Seoul right now as an exchange student and I completely understand you on so many things! Loneliness is a big thing for me even though I'm usually with a lot of people but I guess, I still feel lonely cause it's superifical relationships and not deep ones, something that I really need in my life? It's actually quite funny for me because, back in my home country, I don't have any ties with my family, I only have my friends there so I am used to being alone and independent. But here, I feel more vulnerable in some way? Because I'm here and it's a different culture, I don't understand the language that well and when I'm sick (and I'm sick a lot here), I feel like I would like to be in my home country and see my friends that I miss... Maybe it's also because I'm so out of my comfort zone here, don't have a kitchen for example or private space sooooo yeah.
Anyway, I really like this video! It really helped me reflect on my own life here :)
if you don't mind can you tell me more about your major or how you became an exchange student
i relate so much to this
Your English is really good - I didn't realise you were Danish until you said so! XD
HereIAm247 oh I thought she was from Eastern Europe!
make a video about how your makeup and style has changed because of korean culture!!!!
PLEASE, I NEED THIS VIDEO!!
I just love your personality, style and the all over aesthetic of your channel ❤️
it's been a while since I've watched one of your videos because I just started college!! (your skin is GLOWING by the way) and honestly so comforting hearing you sharing your experiences in a new place because I'm personally having a really hard time making friends right now in school :/ I'm hoping it gets easier!
I have lived in Korea for extended periods of time throughout my life. Each time, Korea really got to me. I often felt depressed and lonely. Korea has many beautiful cultural practices, but it has a harsh working environment. I have developed 'jung' with Korea. This jung is not based on happiness, but struggle.
Could you tell us more about why you felt sad and lonely?
I really relate to a lot of the topics you addressed here especially loneliness. I grew up in Japan but I'm Australian and moved to Japan when I was 9 and I'd meet a lot of other foreign people and become friends but then they would move away and I'd be alone again and most of the time you lose touch and it's really sad.
Best of luck to you!!! 💕💕💕
this kinda encouraged me to really move to korea when i'm done with school in a year. I've been there for a week and actually just came home yesterday but leaving Seoul was awful... i don't know what pulls me to this city but it was so so hard to say goodbye. I hate hope i will make my dream of living there come true
you are glowing sooo much I had to comment! you're definitely on the right path and it's very inspiring to see❤️❤️ best of luck!✨✌️
I don't like it either when Koreans ask me my age and status ( boyfriend? husband?)...especially strangers like taxi drivers. It's none of your business.
I think its totally normal for them. They do it with eachother all the time, so I guess they didnt think if foreigners found it weird or not. You should kind of understand their culture and way of thinking too instead of finding it so annoying (If you never did, my bad)
You would hate to live here in Brazil then😂😂 people wanna know every single detail of your existence.
that is normal for asian culture, it's not meant to invade but instead an attempt to connect
I knew a lesbian girl who found that question so stressful while she lived in Korea that she lied (in the context of her work).
Vegan fellow here haha💕
I'm happy that I continue watching your videos and happy that you are here with us! Keep up with your channel
You`re so cute and your voice is so sweet . it sounds like a princess that i was so absorbed in
HOW CAN SOMEONE BE THIS PRETTY
Sounds like you've had an idyllic experience in Korea, thanks to how you look. The same can not be said for other foreigners who do not fit the beauty standard.
Totally feasible...stereotypes are abhorrent..defy them..looks are so misleading and as we all know actually knowing a person their personality and habits and multifaceted being that we all are then you find beauty or not
@@lenafranklin7262 I'm Korean and I can tell you that nothing and no one will or can defy the pervasive superficiality that defines Korean society. I agree though, it needs to change
Elsker dine videoer! De er virkelig æstetiske og jeg nyder at arbejde/studere med dem i baggrunden ❤️😍
Unlucky Specialist ihh tusind tak 🥰
notif squad! love you, sissel!
Sissel I can't believe it has already been a year, wow so long since the first video I was of you.. I hope you continue to enjoy and learn during the time you stay there, and I will continue following your adventures in Korea or anywhere you decide to go afterwards :) Best energy for you always
Such a sweet message, thank you so much 🥰
skin care routine your skin looks beautiful!!!!
I remember watching you for the first time last year(I think?) And it was your room tour video and now I saw your video again 😍 I wish you the best in everything you do ♥️
You are so beautiful Sissel 💕💕 I am a fan 💗💗
I must be lucky... When I lived there, all the side comments in Korean that I heard from random people who didn't know I could understand them (elderly people included) were compliments on my manners and how I looked.
I love the jazz in the background :)
You have a boyfrieeeend
If I had to move to another country for some reason I would choose Ireland, Scotland, or the Cayman Islands. (Lots of ex-pats in the latter due to the tax structure.) The people in Ireland & Scotland are so warm and friendly.
You're so pretty I can't - -
i loved that you mentioned the good and bad things
I stay by your side with your joy but also with your tears and scars.Your are awesome ...love u for sharing
Loving your overall look in here 😍❤🙏
Very informative... Thank you for being open minded to other culture(s). Enjoy your travels near and afar.
You inspired my more to go live in Korea! 😁
I am so happy you are happy now, Sissel. Especailly after what happenend to you in that old apartment/house. You are a strong beautiful queen and you deserve all the happiness you have fought for!
구독자 50만 축하드려욧~😊
감시합니다~~~!
woww its been a year now! well done sister! 😍
Sissell cutiiee miss u 💟💓💞💕💞💞💗💟💓💓💞
Love u sissel,.hope ur next visit is here in the Philippines😍😘
I very much want to move to Korea, but my family is 100% against it. Do you have any advice on moving to a new country even if your family is against it, and how to support yourself moving to a new country as a foreigner?
She went from black and white to colour, according to the thumbnail
Your skin is absolutely gorgeous and so dewy. Might I suggest you try bangs? It might present more of a soft look for you especially since you have a high forehead. Enjoy your time in Korea.
I don't know why you remind me of Elizabeth Lail from You series on netflix. Loved your sharing, Sissel
You are such a lovely person! Thank you for your video! It is interesting to hear about your experience in Korea. I have never been but I am currently learning the language and I am thinking to come visit Korea next year. I am also vegan :)
I Miss you 😭 hope we can see each other again soon ✨
I miss you toooooo ❤️❤️
Sissel love u💟
Vildt stærkt at springe ud i at flytte til Sydkorea. Al held og Lykke fremover 💖
i think it's absolutely necessary to learn a country's national language , especially when u plan on living and working there. I think it's just courtesy for you to do so because you cant expect everyone to know english despitr english being a "lingua franca" or global language. So kudos to you for putting effort in learning the korean language!!!! Good luck!
This girl looks like she has Korean-style make-up. I like Korean-style make-up. It looks so cute and adorable.
Fresh makeup. Would love a tutorial 💓😊
I have been here 1.5 months and I relate to this. especially being alone
Hi Sissel, great inspiration seeing you went for the things you wanted in life despite being so young. You've got my admiration.
And it may not be the video for...but I wanted to ask you if you know about a Korean skin care and cosmetics brand called "Atomy". I live abroad a was wondering if you know about it and what's your opinion. It's becoming kind of popular. Thanks
how old is she?
youre such a beautiful person
SISSEL you re the best yes 😘😘❤💞💞
What lipstick are you wearing? It is beautiful 😍
Thanks....great job💗
Wow in SEP 4th i came from Venezuela to chile , It was 8 days of travel in bus! We do the same step in the same day it's crazy :0
Can you do a part two? I'm planning on moving to Japan next year and my biggest fear is the making friends part. Like... how do XD
Annette Celia Rosemary I have the same problem 😫
In times of corona it is difficult.
You can not sit home and wait for people to call you. You need to make appointments and go out to meet people. Do sports. Do language classes.
You will meet friends at university very easily as so many are far from home there.
Can you make a video about how did you make friends in Korea? :)
I really like to watch your videos atm because i'm also going to move to korea in one month 😊 can i ask how long you're planning to stay in korea? 🤔
What's your skincare routine pleaseeee?
Umm she is young and skin care routine is like water
Hey gurl sml ♥
Nothing changed
You're still too beautiful
내가 이 분을 이렇게 늦게서야 알게된게 제일 아쉬울따름이다
Is Sissel in love with someone? 👀❤️
I love you so much 😔💘
I love you 2
@@sisselab Ahh my heart 😭❤❤
I love you😍
I 😍LOOOOVE
Would you consider doing a video in Danish?
Danish people are so pretty ❤️🥰
How do you move to Korea as a Scandinavian? Visa and all those legal things..?
I love that you now have straight brows. GAME CHANGER!
Oh I love your top, where did u get it ?
I love love love her top!!!!!!! Anyone know where I can get it?!
Well I am not talking about her but any average looking white ladies can apply for the model jobs in Korea and many of them will be hired.
Could you please recommend some vegetarian restaurants/places to eat ( not too expensive) in Seoul? I´m planning to visit Korea next year and afraid there's not many places where I could go.
Can you please tell about vegetarian foods available in Korea? Is vegetarian food available in regular restaurants?
There is something strange about you that I can't quite figure, I think it's that your attractive more than beautiful, like the girl next door type, young and fresh looking.......No Scrap that, you are beautiful....!
What was your reason for moving to korea
You look like Haley Bennet! Soooo cute❤
Sorry, but it's just so cute how you are trying to not say what you where almost saying....if you know what I'm saying.😏 🤍 Loved the video😇
Τι όμορφο πρόσωπο που έχεις ❤️🙏🙏
In every country that you travel to you will find people that wish you would go back to your own country. That being said, the most welcoming and friendly people i've met has been in South east Asia and in Latin America. In Europe, I have encountered a lot of rudeness. I was in Italy once and I overheard an Italian saying awful things about us "fat americans." I'm not American, but I was with a group of Americans. I'm glad you prefaced your statement by saying you can't lump everyone into a category. That is the truest thing about travelling, and I wish more people knew that.
When you were traveling with the group of Americans you must have noticed yourself.
I guess half of the group were overweight and half were obese.
Wherever I travel, I can tell American tourists from far away. No other nation stands out like them.
I got a picture from a beautiful temple in Thailand. Guess where the huge obese lady was from, dressed in bright pink overall? Dominates my picture of the temple in size of an elephant.
I came back later when she was gone. Took her ages to move down the steps and walk out of the picture.
Yes, the Italians just stated the fact that there was a group of obese Americans. This is not rude and same will happen in France, Spain, Portugal, Germany.
No other nation ever has same heavy and wobbly people as USA.
If they were a group of beautiful girls the Italians would say something about beautiful girls from America.
Oo, you're tall like me! *Pulls out notepad to take style tips*
Early hope u notice me💞💞💞💞💞
You're noticed!
@@sisselab omg😮thank you so much iloveyouuu💞💞
How did you get into modeling?
I love youu😍😍😍❣❣😘😘😘
Looks like miranda kerr...
You are a beautiful woman
I Love you so much
사랑해
you're the best
Asmaa K_pøp it’s 사랑해 ..
hi_sahra lmaooo
@@62journal54 Thank
I am curious in what ways the commercial model community wanted your body to be changed? I'm assuming liposuction/surgery?
koreans respect elders so much
They're pretty vocal with their discrimination there
how do you even start modelling in Korea? How do you know your pretty enough?
Madelon Dendooven top models are not that pretty, its a hard job
Same like in every other country I guess. Send fotos to agencies and go there so they can have a look at you. Walk for them and they will maybe take fotos of you and make a sedcard.
Then you wait for them to call back.
You need to look your best all the time, best body, best skin, best hair.
What if they call you after a party night? Can you go there and meet a client with bad skin and dark circles?
No beauty no job.
I only know two models, one male and one female.
Both are tall and slim from family. Both look just normal in person but very different on camera. She is pretty but normal pretty, it is her tall body and clean skin what makes her stand out and gets the jobs for her. On pictures she looks like an alien and really glamorous. She walks for Italian companies and does fashion shows and fashion fotos.
She went to an agency because her friend worked there and they have same body and a pretty face.
Both just do it from time to time as they study. It is well paid but full time is difficult.
You are so beautiful...i love your baby face
What is your skincare ruitine?
