These Filipinos fought in a land they did not know, for a people they did not know, against an enemy they did not know. All right after a devastating war destroyed their country just a decade earlier. God bless them and all who fought in Korea 🇵🇭🇰🇷🇺🇸
Right after the Korean War, Korea was literally the poorest country in the world. General MacArthur said it would take 100 years for the country to recover. Everything was destroyed. But now in 71 years, Korea has become the 10th largest economy in the world. The blood and sacrifice of soldiers in the Korean War were not wasted. Because of them, there is Korea now.
I went to South Korea in 1991. I stayed there for three months. What I noticed was that the older people showed respect when they learned that I came from the Philippines. They still remembered the contribution that we made during the Korean War.
Im filipino who currently work here in Korea many koreans dont know the history of korean war in 1950's that many filipino sacrifice their life to meet the peaceful life in korea, My co workers dont know about it very disappointed. But thank you, Some koreans appreciated the filipino who help their country and good life and now good economy. Hope to help my country Philippines to grow our economy us well. Hope to meet you here in korea Ms. Jessica
We have people here doesn't even appreciate US army saying they are the "reason why we're sepreated". US deployed 1.78 million and it's more than 200 times of Filipino soldiers and they're still being bashed by stupid people. So I think it's a long way to go for us to fully appreciate Philippine for their sacrifices but I hope we'll get there.
I am a Pilipino and really very proud being a Pilipino but very sad and quite ashame of our politicians who corrupted our country. Shame on corrupt Pilipino Politians, many of them from the top: Presidents, Senators, Congressmen, Governors, Mayors, among others.
I have been visiting South Korea since 2011. I was overly interested in learning and understanding Korean History. Furthermore, I was curious when I saw the Filipino names at The War Memorial Of Korea. As a Pinoy myself, I started to research about it. On other trips to Korea, I had special experiences in the Subway, train stations, or typical sightseeing tour locations. Some old men reached me. Some started shaking my hand, even hugging me or crying. My Korean friends translated for me and said, they fought together with or saved the lives by Filipinos. They just wanted to thank you for surviving and that I looked like his Filipinos mates. Well, that was special. And last April I visited my Korean friends again, and when my friend was drunk, he also started to thank me, that he has a wonderful life now. Yes, that was special too.
You forgot that one of those soldiers who fought in Korea was a future president of the Philippines. At that time he was fresh out of West Point, and barely settled into his job in the Army.
Jessica is such an authentic, well-spoken, and well-rounded both as a person and a youtuber. Her channel is a combination of entertaining and informative.
Ah. I definitely need to visit there. I'm a Filipino-Canadian who has been working as an English teacher in S.Korea over a year now. Maybe it's because I'm an INFJ, but I see myself as being part of continuing Filipino-Korean history by being a teacher for kids here. I'm probably the first Filipino person they've ever met. A lot of Filipinos work here but not in English teaching jobs. I had the privilege of growing up in Canada so I am eligible for English teaching positions here. And in those positions you really get to interact with the new generation and leave a positive impact on shaping their world perspectives of those who are different from them.
Thank you guys. My grandpa fought in Korean War and Vietnam war. I’m so thankful of him fighting for the Philippines and for other allied countries. He was a Philippine army then recruited by the US to fight in Korea and in Vietnam. When he died at the age of 91 someone announced it at the podium that he’s had 20 plus medals 😢😢😢. I didn’t really pay attention to it because I was young at that time when he passed away. Now I realized how tough he was and I’m very grateful, also because of him we all migrated in the US and have a better life. I’m very proud and I’m always grateful. We should always thankful for all the fallen soldiers, veterans and troops today for their sacrifices and services!!! Mabuhay!!!
Vietnam war was mess. Philippines should never get involve in a war that initiated by Americans. It was different from Korean war, where the communist was the first aggressor. Vietnam war it was the American who is seen as the aggressor. It's too bad that Philippines supported the USA in that conflict.
Filipinos never fought in Vietnam war. The PH government that time only sent non- combatant personnel like Doctors and Engineers for rebuilding purposes. This is the reason why the first country that the Vietnam leadership visited after Vietnam war was the Philippines to show of gratitude because Filipinos did not support the war which the US started.
amazing how jessica knows almost everything about the Philippine history. shows just how much she really love our country. some of the Filipinos are grateful to our national heroes, but doesn't know exactly what they are being grateful of. we know them, but we have no idea of what they did and what they've gone through to give us the freedom that we are enjoying right now. it's sad to say, but as time pass by, i feel like they are slowly being forgotten. so it feels really good seeing someone like jessica, a korean, reminding us about our history and how we should treasure them in our memories. thank you, jess. ❤
I admire how culture-conscious Koreans are and how interested they are in learning about history. She is a Korean, yet I can see how much she love the Filipinos and the Philippines.
I'm a Filipina from Philippines, and i'm so proud that there's some people loves too educate in history and known what's the past. Thank you so much for having a memorial day of our heroes💞💜
I must say, jessica really knows the history in philippines more than the current generation of filipinos. That is why I am very lucky that I discovered this channel. I hope more people will discover this channel, so that they will have a good amount of knowledge in history. This proves that jessica is so smart, thats why we stan her. More power for our princess
@@mavis8490 Your art must be amazing, you don't need likes to know if your creation is good, just the time and effort you have on it defines it's beauty.
@@christinejoycevistal8558 yes, it is somehow sad. The reason behind is that some of the filipinos are embarrassed because they are filipinos, especially teens. However, most of the filipinos still represent themselves as filipinos with pride and honor, as well as foreigners that have a heart of filipino. The filipinos are basically yin yang.
Thank you for recognizing Filipino known and unknown heroes. The deep rooted connection between South Korea and Philippines started decades ago but good to know that some of the Koreans still remember and honor it. Thank you Unnie ✨
While watching this video i feel emotion...... , from thousand miles here in UK sending my gratitude thanking to the Koreans giving a plaque for those respected soldiers in individuals Filipinos, Koreans and the UN.......❤️❤️❤️🇵🇭🇬🇧
NOLI ME TANGERE and EL FILIBUSTERISMO was a masterpiece indeed. Sadly, most of the Filipino nowadays just don't see its significance and how it played a role not just back then but even up unto this day. :(( I'm glad that someone is interested to read the novel for its content and message not just because it's part of their academic requirement.
What are you talking about? Im grade 9 student and my sister is grade 10 and my cousin is grade 6 and we are reading this novel bcuz this is our topic HAHAW and when I was grade 7 pinag aralan din namin yung ibang part
@@itsmenathan3218 exactly her point. Karamihan naman talaga sa atin binasa lang yung novel kasi requirement sa school. Kumbaga malimit lang sa atin ang magbasa talaga nang may kusa kadalasan napilitan. Ika pa nga ng iba, para nalang sa kapakanan ng grades.
Ang punto ko po rito ay nakakatuwa na may nagaaral sa mga nobelang ito nang may kagustuhan at hindi napilitan dahil kailangan lang pag-aralan. Gayunpaman, hindi ko nilalahat na ang mga Pinoy ay ganto subalit hindi maitatanggi na karamihan talaga ay gano'n nga.
I love Jessica. She's eloquent, thoughtful, modest and shows genuine interest about similarities between the Philippines and Korea. My high respect for this girl. ❤️
This explains why Koreans reacted that way on the past issue about the tattoo. Because you know your history well, and it was taught in a relatable manner, you feel so highly emotional about what happened back then. And that's understandable now. Makes a lot of sense
@@moviemania1583 im not referring to a single man's video. Im referring to how they called out bella for her tattoo. I say I understand where they were coming from but I am not saying I am FOR any hateful act. I watched a lot of videos and I had to agree that you are right, if you refer to the man's video. They said they dont have the same hateful reaction on that.
@James Henry Smith yeah. I watched it. I had to, so I could understand. And their reaction was understandable after Jessica mentioned that history was taught to them in a relatable manner. And it felt like it happened not so long ago. Thank you for stating that, though. 👍
Wala nako masasabe im a filipino but it looks like she knows allot about our culture and history and thats awesome. She truly consider our country as her 2nd home. So much respect po sayo 🙇
@James Henry Smith At first I thought she is one of those vloggers who are baiting our kababayan in their video with filipino content but I'm glad she prove me wrong. She geniunely loves the culture of the filipino. Unlike the other people who are just reacting the videos of filipino not knowing deeply about it. I am one of those haters of her in the past, now I am fan. Most of her viewers wont even exceed on thousands and now I am glad many people notice about her.
@James Henry Smith i dont think you realize how many koreans live in the philippines. it has the biggest diaspora of them way before kpop. philippines and vietnam are their home in southeast asia. its only normal to see this coming from them. and that so called ppop copied kpop is true ans not true, becuase its the koreans that created these groups. your next question would be is why? loop read what i wrote and youll find your answer. that also goes for the japanese. these 2 nations including us, chinese descents have been here for a long time. check binondo history. youll find your answer there too. good day
Many Filipinos have forgotten the Battle of Manila where the city was completely devastated by gunshots where you can still see some of the structures with bullet holes to the massive bombing of Manila to the mass murder did by the Japanese and it was estimated that 100,000 to 500,000 people perished in that battle alone which only lasted 28 days.
When you mentioned Douglas McArthur being a controversial hero, there are some sentiments among historians that the total destruction of Manila could have been avoided if not for the big ego of Douglas McArthur. Who am I to judge the actions of people back then, it was a different time. Manila then was called the "Pearl of the Orient" pre-war, to "Stalingrad of Asia" post WW2 with the city in rubbles ...we lost hundreds of thousands of lives and 300 years of civilization.
Buildings can be rebuilt, history can be recovered, but one life lost can never be brought back. To be fair, postwar Manila was still as beautiful in the 50s and 60s as before WWII, and the Philippines was a wealthy and independent nation. During those two decades we proved that we can stand on our own and govern ourselves well. Manila and the Philippines deteriorated in the 70s for obvious reasons.
Honestly, the battle of Manila would had been avoided if the Japanese Naval commander Adm. Iwabuchi obeyed the orders of General Yamashita and not defend Manila. Once the Japanese Admiral decided to defend Manila to the last, he absolutely guaranteed that the city and its inhabitants will pay the price regardless of what Mac would do. It was Iwabuchi's ego and fanaticism that destroyed Manila. Remember, if MacArthur bypass Manila and pursued Yamashita, the massacre of the UST internees including the angel nurses of Bataan and Corregidor was very much a possibility. Worse, since the Japanese did not care much about the Filipinos, what guarantees did these historians know that Adm. Sanji Iwabuchi ,who had a grudge and wanted redemption, will act rationally if Macarthur bypass Manila?
@ A) Look at the fucking map and guess why Japan invaded the Philippines in the first place and why China wants our country today. If you control the Philippines, one can easily control the South China Sea especially if China takes Taiwan as well. B) Roosevelt ordered MacArthur to Australia and we know from history that Dugout Doug after 1942 can be depended on being in or near the frontlines along with the media in Southwestern Pacific Theatre of Operations. C) Was the defense of South Korea against North Korea and China due to Western Imperialism? Don’t think so dude. D) The greatest threat to our country is China and not Western imperialism. Ask the Tibetans, Uighurs and the people of Hong Kong.
@ Hate to break this to you, but ask Vietnam, Cambodia, Thailand, Indonesia, South Korea how they view China in their own respective histories. Why the hell do you think that there is a historical strong anti- China and anti-Chinese among South East Asian countries even before the Kano, the Limeys, Ivan, and what ever Western imperialism became vogue. Second, let me guess, they send Christian missionaries in China. Hate to break this to you, but fucking Japan, Great Britain, Kaiser Germany, Italy and Imperial Russia were screwing Imperial China pre- Boxer Rebellion.The United States was just a second rate regional power with a small navy and a very small professional army and an even smaller Marine Corp pre-WWI . The joke at that time around Academic circles was the Europeans already cleaned out the place while the Americans had to buy things in cash in order to place things in their museums . So it was kinda hard for the US to do shit in China at the early stages of the 20th century.
Jessica and Sylvia unnie has a "Pusong Pinoy", and it feels great to see their vlogs full of love to the Philippines. Thank you so much unnies!! Saranghaeee
Jessica reporter Sylvia camera women Labyu both ❤ Kahit umuulan nagrereport pa rin about philippine history sa korea with Sylvia pa. Luv it 💕 mabuhay kayong dalawa JesSyl 🌹
My late grandfather fought in the Korean War. I’m glad that South Korea recognizes the sacrifices that my grandfather and other Filipinos made for their country.
When you mentioned about how people are interested in korea but not more interested about the korean history, as a kpop and kdrama fan I didn't even realize how I started to like korean war movies or based-on-true-story movies about how korean life and how they lived back then. I as an indie film and historical movies enthusiast, it is always a yes to learn and to appreciate the history of everything.
Every time that Jessica explains something about Philippines. I was like 😲😲wow I mean knowing that she's a pure korean and knows very well our history and many things👏👏👏💜💜
but indeed, we should give importance to our history and always remember to be really grateful to the bravery and sacrifices our heroes have made just to give us the freedom we are enjoying right now.
For us to know ourselves, we must know our history. Thank you for making a blog about Korean war that involved foreign fighters especially the brave and loving Filipinos. Mabuhay!
I proud of you Jessica Lee, my Grand father is a general soilger brave race fighting for honor General Benjamin Santos...Now im the last private Benjamin Santos jr. And i have a mission to help poorpeople and homeless also sick people give them helping hands its my Humanitarian Content...Godbless u Jessica Lee.

But now in 71 years, Korea has become the 10th largest economy in the world. The blood and sacrifice of soldiers in the Korean War were not wasted. Because of them, there is Korea now.
This is one of the places I loved when I visited Korea few years ago. I took myself out on a date and spent at least 5 hours inside... to the point that a security asked me if I lost my group(there were students who came on a field trip that same day as I did) and had to explain in broken Korean that I'm not part of any group. LOL I remember tearing up while passing by the Memorial Hall because, like what you and Sylvia said, can't imagine living during the war. Couldn't even imagine being a mother during the time and just praying every single day that your child will come back home after serving. Oh gosh, I had to hold it in when I specifically went to the exhibition room where there's a drop of water in the middle and every drop has the name of the soldier who passed away during the war. I wish you showed the uniforms of the females who served in the military, as well. I thought that was pretty cool! Can't wait to go back to Korea and visit this again! PS. I don't know if they still do it but when I went, they're actually giving out a free book about the Korean War.
My father, a U.S. Marine who landed at Inchon and helped liberate Seoul, he loved the Korean People. He also fought alongside the Brave Filipinos who showed up in a mountainous bitterly cold environment wearing jungle weight uniforms. I too am a Marine veteran, have been to Korea, and am married to a Beautiful Filipina!
I love this type of content. This strengthened the Filipino and Korean Friendship. I hope today's generation also focus on each other culture and stop creating chaos for a little population that may say bad things about each other country.
As a Filipino We have Alot of history. The Spain War,Korean war,battle for Marawi and more. I feel the soldiers who sacreficed for the Koreans MABUHAY TAYO!!!!!🇵🇭🇵🇭🇵🇭🇵🇭
I was really proud to born and grow in philippine and heroes that give their lives just to save us . Even though they didn't know where they are put in a battle area.. they were really served for humanmankind . Mabuhay po sa inyo!!!
I love to go there nice narration of history ......mostly for the filipinoes who sacrifies their lives....i must say thumbs up to those who remembered and thank you for showcasing the heroism of the Filipino soldiers..... from the 🇵🇭
Thank you for remembering these valiant Filipinos who fought for South Korea's freedom. But more than that, we fed Koreans during that war. There was famine in Korea since all crops were destroyed. We sent Philippine rice. For a while, I was saddened because there was Korean bashing of Filipinos. But somehow I am happy now because there were those who remembered that there was a time that our country was not the way it is now. God bless those who know how to say thank you.
After watching this video I think I should be more focused about our lesson that is Dr. Jose Rizal's novel. Thank you for reminding us, the new generation, to never forget about the sacrifices of our heroes. Love ya!♡
Thank you Jessica. You really are a pure Korean with a Filipino heart. This is such a heartwarming vlog and such an inspiration as well as a great insight on the Fil-Kor friendship history ❤
That's why I really don't want other Filipinos and Koreans to fight because I don't want to ruin their friendship:< I only found out about it when they were fighting because of Bella's tattoo
There were a lot of misunderstanding in both parts. And also because Bella was a held as a ''representation'' of Filipinos in social media. And the stigma around that particular platform. Plus you know how in social media, everything are all magnified.
@@kevinjoshperez4988 yeah honestly it was just an inside jokes of army (fan of them) but some of Filipino took it out and made it trending just to tease the fan but arghhh that was just so pathetic and start calling them gay
Thanks for featuring the Korean War Museum. I was able to visit the museum in 2008 during our Training in Yongsan Garrison. And also visited our counter-parts in ROK-Armed Forces Medical Command. The Museum was closed that day because it was a holiday... But ROK Armed Forces managed to organized a guided tour for us even it was closed. They said we should not go without seeing both our countries' joint history. When i saw the names of the filipino who where honored by your country for ultimate sacrifice they made for your freedom... I was both honored, and proud and of course sad for their family also. Thanks for the vlog Jessica.
Coincidence, I am highschool now and currently reading "Noli me tanggere " for our upcoming test next week, I really want history and korea , and that's why I really loved watching your vlogs unnie , bcz it does not focus on one thing or one topic but it roll's around your life and journey and fit's whatever occations were celebrating on and for that we're able to see and feel what is happening around us , Keepsafe ate Jessica!
Thank You for appreciating filipino who died and sacrificed lives for your country and filipino is really true for the country and also ready for anyone that need some help that were bullied of other country, cuz we want peace and love each other, no war
Filipino soldiers are actually the one who literally risked their lives for South Korea. 3 countries (Colombia, Philippines and Turkey if i'm not mistaken) are guarding a certain mountain (Yultong), Puerto Rico and Turkey was alreadt defeated and among the 3, Philippines was in the middle so when the 2 country fell, Filipino Soldiers were surrounded, literally surrounded, their front, left and right are all occupied by the opponent. Soldiers actually suggested to retreat but a Filipino general told them not to, so even the cooks of the soldier was forced to fight and they actually won. It was a small fight in the Korean History but it actually helped Korean focus on their own fight. And if my estimation is correct, the ratio of Filo Soldier to Chinese soldier that time was 1 : 4,000 (meaning 1 filo needs to defeat 4000 chinede
Puerto Rico didn't participate in the Korean War it was Colombia the only nation from Latin America to send troops to help South Korea to fend off the communist invasion of Il Sung's North
@@jananir4790 India deployed the 60th Parachute Field Ambulance and treated about 195,000 cases, and performed nearly 2,300 field surgeries during its mission. more on the medical field part together with Denmark, Italy, Sweden and Norway.
@@mikewest0n895 well, she's not Korean tho most of us here we know more of our history not other countries history. Where u from? As if u know it too before watching a lot videos related to this
I don't know what they taught you in Philippine and world history class. Or you might not have been paying attention. You should start reading about the Philippines and the world.
After seeing how modern Koreans perceive Filipinos today around social media, I felt hate and confusion until I learned from one of the comments that Philippines helped in the Korean war. Upon learning that I didn't feel a sense of "gotcha" moment, I just felt pride and understood that today not many people (including me) are educated about the past. I no longer hold hate for the Koreans who blindly "bully" us, instead I feel love appreciation for those who remember the courage of their countrymen and our countrymen along with many others who helped protect the core of any country. The people. On behalf of humanity, human lives and the Filipino heart, thank you for this video and thank you to you beautiful ladies for your respect and the love for your country!
Ate Jessica Thank you for loving our Country Philippines 🇵🇭we Filipinos are happy to your vlog thank you for showing care to our country and remembering the Filipino Soldier🇵🇭🪖 their sacrifices in war just to save many lives😊keep it up☺️love from Philippines 🇵🇭
The more I watch Jessica’s vlogs, the more I learned things!!! When it’s possible to travel again, I’ll def visit that place ;) btw I’m a fan from Fukuoka Japan❤️❤️
My grandfather - Sgt. Tomas Gealone was among the brave men who fought during the Korean War. He was the - Avenger 14th Battalion Combat Team member. Sadly, I never had a chance to meet him before I was born. I heard his amazing stories from Lola and I’m so proud of his valorous spirit and fearlessness during the War.
I remember the stories of some of the Filipinos who were genuinely disappointed during the cancel korea "movement" (idk what else to call it) where they were sharing stories about their grandfathers who fought alongside the Koreans during the war crying when they went back to Korea to visit that memorial center.
Two of my uncles are Korean War Veterans. Thank you for your TH-cam channel and your understanding about Filipino soldiers that fought side by side with South Koreans and U.S soldiers .
including the Turkish, Australian, Greek (Hellenic Forces), Kiwi, Dutch, Canadian, British, Belgian, Colombian, Thai, French, Ethiopian, Luxembourgese, South African and other nations under the UN Flag who sacrificed their lives in the defense of South Korea from the invasion of neighboring North Korea in 1950 to 1953
I urge everyone to watch 'Snowy Road' it is a film/drama starring Kim Sae Ron and Kim Hyang Gi which provides an insight on what the Korean women experienced as comfort women. I swear you won't be able to stop yourself from crying. The actresses did really well on carrying their roles. Biggest respect to the bravest women who sacrificed themselves.
In the land of South Korea, the blood, sweat, and tears of the brave soldiers of the Philippines fell for their freedom. May the people of South Korea never forget this sacrifice.
She's pure korean but i can see how much she loves filipino people and Philippines 🥺💚

But thank you, Some koreans appreciated the filipino who help their country and good life and now good economy. Hope to help my country Philippines to grow our economy us well. Hope to meet you here in korea Ms. Jessica
I think it's time to start educating through via internet. This is very important and Koreans should know this.
We have people here doesn't even appreciate US army saying they are the "reason why we're sepreated". US deployed 1.78 million and it's more than 200 times of Filipino soldiers and they're still being bashed by stupid people.
So I think it's a long way to go for us to fully appreciate Philippine for their sacrifices but I hope we'll get there.

I admire how culture-conscious Koreans are and how interested they are in learning about history. She is a Korean, yet I can see how much she love the Filipinos and the Philippines.
Well the Philippines educated her. Notice that her English is filipino accent. It's only natural to show affection to the country that educated you.
That is not true, koreans don’t even know this history.
We love her as a Filipino family she part of ours.

I'm a Filipina from Philippines, and i'm so proud that there's some people loves too educate in history and known what's the past. Thank you so much for having a memorial day of our heroes💞💜
I must say, jessica really knows the history in philippines more than the current generation of filipinos. That is why I am very lucky that I discovered this channel. I hope more people will discover this channel, so that they will have a good amount of knowledge in history. This proves that jessica is so smart, thats why we stan her. More power for our princess
Wow guys, thank you for making my comment over a hundred likes. I wish my art would have the same likes as my comment.
@@mavis8490 Your art must be amazing, you don't need likes to know if your creation is good, just the time and effort you have on it defines it's beauty.
@@florence.066 THANK YOU SO MUUUCHHH TT
That first sentence is really sad
@@christinejoycevistal8558 yes, it is somehow sad. The reason behind is that some of the filipinos are embarrassed because they are filipinos, especially teens. However, most of the filipinos still represent themselves as filipinos with pride and honor, as well as foreigners that have a heart of filipino. The filipinos are basically yin yang.
Thank you for recognizing Filipino known and unknown heroes. The deep rooted connection between South Korea and Philippines started decades ago but good to know that some of the Koreans still remember and honor it.
Thank you Unnie ✨
THANK YOU TO OUR all SOLDIERS SACRIFICE their LIVES BECAUSE OF OUR FREEDOM TODAY EAT MC DONALD HAPPY MEMORIAL DAY AMERICA
While watching this video i feel emotion...... , from thousand miles here in UK sending my gratitude thanking to the Koreans giving a plaque for those respected soldiers in individuals Filipinos, Koreans and the UN.......❤️❤️❤️🇵🇭🇬🇧
Jessica Lee reminds me so much of Dara of 2NE1, a Korean citizen who considers the Philippines as a second home. Salamat!
NOLI ME TANGERE and EL FILIBUSTERISMO was a masterpiece indeed. Sadly, most of the Filipino nowadays just don't see its significance and how it played a role not just back then but even up unto this day. :(( I'm glad that someone is interested to read the novel
for its content and message not just because it's part of their academic requirement.
I tried reading the one na hindi modern filipino ang gamit. I find it hard to understand
What are you talking about? Im grade 9 student and my sister is grade 10 and my cousin is grade 6 and we are reading this novel bcuz this is our topic HAHAW and when I was grade 7 pinag aralan din namin yung ibang part
@@itsmenathan3218 exactly her point. Karamihan naman talaga sa atin binasa lang yung novel kasi requirement sa school. Kumbaga malimit lang sa atin ang magbasa talaga nang may kusa kadalasan napilitan. Ika pa nga ng iba, para nalang sa kapakanan ng grades.
@@rochele3665 totoo. Minsan after basahin, minsan lang ha. Im not saying all the time. Nakakalimutan na.
Ang punto ko po rito ay nakakatuwa na may nagaaral sa mga nobelang ito nang may kagustuhan at hindi napilitan dahil kailangan lang pag-aralan. Gayunpaman, hindi ko nilalahat na ang mga Pinoy ay ganto subalit hindi maitatanggi na karamihan talaga ay gano'n nga.
I love Jessica. She's eloquent, thoughtful, modest and shows genuine interest about similarities between the Philippines and Korea. My high respect for this girl. ❤️
Salamat korea for recognizing our filipino soldiers salamat
This explains why Koreans reacted that way on the past issue about the tattoo. Because you know your history well, and it was taught in a relatable manner, you feel so highly emotional about what happened back then. And that's understandable now. Makes a lot of sense
the reaction of that person in that viral video doesn't represents the whole koreans...many of them disagree
@@moviemania1583 im not referring to a single man's video. Im referring to how they called out bella for her tattoo. I say I understand where they were coming from but I am not saying I am FOR any hateful act. I watched a lot of videos and I had to agree that you are right, if you refer to the man's video. They said they dont have the same hateful reaction on that.
@James Henry Smith they got angry with what? I'm sorry i dont fully understand the reference
@James Henry Smith yeah. I watched it. I had to, so I could understand. And their reaction was understandable after Jessica mentioned that history was taught to them in a relatable manner. And it felt like it happened not so long ago. Thank you for stating that, though. 👍
@James Henry Smith true. I was pressured to remember the dates. Very knowledge-based type of learning
Wala nako masasabe im a filipino but it looks like she knows allot about our culture and history and thats awesome. She truly consider our country as her 2nd home. So much respect po sayo 🙇
Tsaka may bahay talaga sila rito sa Pinas (Laguna Area) kaya 2nd home talaga, permanent resident ata si Jessica rito until now.
Bts biot
Idk but naiiyak ako … i feel how she appreciates philippines ❤️
Ok lang yan beh
Thank you for remembering our Filipino soldiers!.mabuhay ang Pilipinas!...
This is only one of the koreans who love Philippines❤🇵🇭
@James Henry Smith At first I thought she is one of those vloggers who are baiting our kababayan in their video with filipino content but I'm glad she prove me wrong. She geniunely loves the culture of the filipino. Unlike the other people who are just reacting the videos of filipino not knowing deeply about it. I am one of those haters of her in the past, now I am fan. Most of her viewers wont even exceed on thousands and now I am glad many people notice about her.
@James Henry Smith sa lahat ng content niya dun ka talaga naka focus. :)
@James Henry Smith i dont think you realize how many koreans live in the philippines. it has the biggest diaspora of them way before kpop. philippines and vietnam are their home in southeast asia. its only normal to see this coming from them. and that so called ppop copied kpop is true ans not true, becuase its the koreans that created these groups. your next question would be is why? loop read what i wrote and youll find your answer. that also goes for the japanese. these 2 nations including us, chinese descents have been here for a long time. check binondo history. youll find your answer there too. good day
@James Henry Smith wow you think very negatively, it’s not their fault if a lot of filipinos watching and this is youtube.
I'm happy because korea never forgot philipinas💕
Many Filipinos have forgotten the Battle of Manila where the city was completely devastated by gunshots where you can still see some of the structures with bullet holes to the massive bombing of Manila to the mass murder did by the Japanese and it was estimated that 100,000 to 500,000 people perished in that battle alone which only lasted 28 days.
We learned it from yesterday's our ancient history so sad 😥
Thank you for giving our Pilipino soldiers tribute for their sacrifice in your country.
When you mentioned Douglas McArthur being a controversial hero, there are some sentiments among historians that the total destruction of Manila could have been avoided if not for the big ego of Douglas McArthur. Who am I to judge the actions of people back then, it was a different time. Manila then was called the "Pearl of the Orient" pre-war, to "Stalingrad of Asia" post WW2 with the city in rubbles ...we lost hundreds of thousands of lives and 300 years of civilization.
Buildings can be rebuilt, history can be recovered, but one life lost can never be brought back.
To be fair, postwar Manila was still as beautiful in the 50s and 60s as before WWII, and the Philippines was a wealthy and independent nation. During those two decades we proved that we can stand on our own and govern ourselves well.
Manila and the Philippines deteriorated in the 70s for obvious reasons.
Exactly. Actions taken during a global conflict was never easy, and almost all of the time there will always be a collateral damage
Honestly, the battle of Manila would had been avoided if the Japanese Naval commander Adm. Iwabuchi obeyed the orders of General Yamashita and not defend Manila. Once the Japanese Admiral decided to defend Manila to the last, he absolutely guaranteed that the city and its inhabitants will pay the price regardless of what Mac would do. It was Iwabuchi's ego and fanaticism that destroyed Manila. Remember, if MacArthur bypass Manila and pursued Yamashita, the massacre of the UST internees including the angel nurses of Bataan and Corregidor was very much a possibility. Worse, since the Japanese did not care much about the Filipinos, what guarantees did these historians know that Adm. Sanji Iwabuchi ,who had a grudge and wanted redemption, will act rationally if Macarthur bypass Manila?
@ A) Look at the fucking map and guess why Japan invaded the Philippines in the first place and why China wants our country today. If you control the Philippines, one can easily control the South China Sea especially if China takes Taiwan as well.
B) Roosevelt ordered MacArthur to Australia and we know from history that Dugout Doug after 1942 can be depended on being in or near the frontlines along with the media in Southwestern Pacific Theatre of Operations.
C) Was the defense of South Korea against North Korea and China due to Western Imperialism? Don’t think so dude.
D) The greatest threat to our country is China and not Western imperialism. Ask the Tibetans, Uighurs and the people of Hong Kong.
@ Hate to break this to you, but ask Vietnam, Cambodia, Thailand, Indonesia, South Korea how they view China in their own respective histories. Why the hell do you think that there is a historical strong anti- China and anti-Chinese among South East Asian countries even before the Kano, the Limeys, Ivan, and what ever Western imperialism became vogue. Second, let me guess, they send Christian missionaries in China. Hate to break this to you, but fucking Japan, Great Britain, Kaiser Germany, Italy and Imperial Russia were screwing Imperial China pre- Boxer Rebellion.The United States was just a second rate regional power with a small navy and a very small professional army and an even smaller Marine Corp pre-WWI . The joke at that time around Academic circles was the Europeans already cleaned out the place while the Americans had to buy things in cash in order to place things in their museums . So it was kinda hard for the US to do shit in China at the early stages of the 20th century.
Jessica and Sylvia unnie has a "Pusong Pinoy", and it feels great to see their vlogs full of love to the Philippines. Thank you so much unnies!! Saranghaeee

My late grandfather fought in the Korean War. I’m glad that South Korea recognizes the sacrifices that my grandfather and other Filipinos made for their country.
When you mentioned about how people are interested in korea but not more interested about the korean history, as a kpop and kdrama fan I didn't even realize how I started to like korean war movies or based-on-true-story movies about how korean life and how they lived back then. I as an indie film and historical movies enthusiast, it is always a yes to learn and to appreciate the history of everything.
Every time that Jessica explains something about Philippines. I was like 😲😲wow I mean knowing that she's a pure korean and knows very well our history and many things👏👏👏💜💜
but indeed, we should give importance to our history and always remember to be really grateful to the bravery and sacrifices our heroes have made just to give us the freedom we are enjoying right now.
For us to know ourselves, we must know our history. Thank you for making a blog about Korean war that involved foreign fighters especially the brave and loving Filipinos. Mabuhay!
I proud of you Jessica Lee, my Grand father is a general soilger brave race fighting for honor General Benjamin Santos...Now im the last private Benjamin Santos jr. And i have a mission to help poorpeople and homeless also sick people give them helping hands its my Humanitarian Content...Godbless u Jessica Lee.
HAHAHAH
Right after the Korean War, Korea was literally the poorest country in the world. General MacArthur said it would take 100 years for the country to recover. Everything was destroyed.
But now in 71 years, Korea has become the 10th largest economy in the world.
The blood and sacrifice of soldiers in the Korean War were not wasted.
Because of them, there is Korea now.
This is one of the places I loved when I visited Korea few years ago. I took myself out on a date and spent at least 5 hours inside... to the point that a security asked me if I lost my group(there were students who came on a field trip that same day as I did) and had to explain in broken Korean that I'm not part of any group. LOL
I remember tearing up while passing by the Memorial Hall because, like what you and Sylvia said, can't imagine living during the war. Couldn't even imagine being a mother during the time and just praying every single day that your child will come back home after serving. Oh gosh, I had to hold it in when I specifically went to the exhibition room where there's a drop of water in the middle and every drop has the name of the soldier who passed away during the war.
I wish you showed the uniforms of the females who served in the military, as well. I thought that was pretty cool!
Can't wait to go back to Korea and visit this again!
PS. I don't know if they still do it but when I went, they're actually giving out a free book about the Korean War.
Thank you for remembering our Filipino soldiers!! My grandfather is one of them and watching this makes my heart so happy ❤

My father, a U.S. Marine who landed at Inchon and helped liberate Seoul, he loved the Korean People. He also fought alongside the Brave Filipinos who showed up in a mountainous bitterly cold environment wearing jungle weight uniforms. I too am a Marine veteran, have been to Korea, and am married to a Beautiful Filipina!
Thank you for telling us the history of Korea, with an emphasis on the Filipino soldiers’ sacrifices.
I can feel the sincerity on every praise or compliment she throws to Filipinos or Philippines...
I love this type of content. This strengthened the Filipino and Korean Friendship. I hope today's generation also focus on each other culture and stop creating chaos for a little population that may say bad things about each other country.
As a Filipino We have Alot of history. The Spain War,Korean war,battle for Marawi and more.
I feel the soldiers who sacreficed for the Koreans
MABUHAY TAYO!!!!!🇵🇭🇵🇭🇵🇭🇵🇭
the memorial building architecture is impressive
I was really proud to born and grow in philippine and heroes that give their lives just to save us . Even though they didn't know where they are put in a battle area.. they were really served for humanmankind . Mabuhay po sa inyo!!!

All i can say is thank you so much Miss Jess for including our fellow hero Filipino Soldiers in your video..
🇵🇭💕
Thank you for remembering these valiant Filipinos who fought for South Korea's freedom. But more than that, we fed Koreans during that war. There was famine in Korea since all crops were destroyed. We sent Philippine rice.
For a while, I was saddened because there was Korean bashing of Filipinos. But somehow I am happy now because there were those who remembered that there was a time that our country was not the way it is now.
God bless those who know how to say thank you.
06:39 I'm Filipino but I never fully read the books. Kudos to you.
After watching this video I think I should be more focused about our lesson that is Dr. Jose Rizal's novel. Thank you for reminding us, the new generation, to never forget about the sacrifices of our heroes. Love ya!♡

Thank you Jessica. You really are a pure Korean with a Filipino heart. This is such a heartwarming vlog and such an inspiration as well as a great insight on the Fil-Kor friendship history ❤
Goosebumps hearing those stories. 🇵🇭🇰🇷
That's why I really don't want other Filipinos and Koreans to fight because I don't want to ruin their friendship:<
I only found out about it when they were fighting because of Bella's tattoo
Same😢
There were a lot of misunderstanding in both parts. And also because Bella was a held as a ''representation'' of Filipinos in social media. And the stigma around that particular platform. Plus you know how in social media, everything are all magnified.
And now is the issue called 'BTS biot" I am really sorry for them
@@kevinjoshperez4988 yeah honestly it was just an inside jokes of army (fan of them) but some of Filipino took it out and made it trending just to tease the fan but arghhh that was just so pathetic and start calling them gay

Thanks for featuring the Korean War Museum. I was able to visit the museum in 2008 during our Training in Yongsan Garrison. And also visited our counter-parts in ROK-Armed Forces Medical Command. The Museum was closed that day because it was a holiday... But ROK Armed Forces managed to organized a guided tour for us even it was closed. They said we should not go without seeing both our countries' joint history. When i saw the names of the filipino who where honored by your country for ultimate sacrifice they made for your freedom... I was both honored, and proud and of course sad for their family also. Thanks for the vlog Jessica.
Coincidence, I am highschool now and currently reading "Noli me tanggere " for our upcoming test next week, I really want history and korea , and that's why I really loved watching your vlogs unnie ,
bcz it does not focus on one thing or one topic but it roll's around your life and journey and fit's whatever occations were celebrating on and for that we're able to see and feel what is happening around us , Keepsafe ate Jessica!
Great job Ms. History never die. Always in people's hearts for ever. Thank You.
I went there before. There is a video there showing how Filipinos were dispatched and fought at the battle of yultong.
Thank You for appreciating filipino who died and sacrificed lives for your country and filipino is really true for the country and also ready for anyone that need some help that were bullied of other country, cuz we want peace and love each other, no war
Filipino soldiers are actually the one who literally risked their lives for South Korea. 3 countries (Colombia, Philippines and Turkey if i'm not mistaken) are guarding a certain mountain (Yultong), Puerto Rico and Turkey was alreadt defeated and among the 3, Philippines was in the middle so when the 2 country fell, Filipino Soldiers were surrounded, literally surrounded, their front, left and right are all occupied by the opponent. Soldiers actually suggested to retreat but a Filipino general told them not to, so even the cooks of the soldier was forced to fight and they actually won. It was a small fight in the Korean History but it actually helped Korean focus on their own fight.
And if my estimation is correct, the ratio of Filo Soldier to Chinese soldier that time was 1 : 4,000 (meaning 1 filo needs to defeat 4000 chinede
Puerto Rico didn't participate in the Korean War it was Colombia the only nation from Latin America to send troops to help South Korea to fend off the communist invasion of Il Sung's North

I don't know what they taught you in Philippine and world history class. Or you might not have been paying attention. You should start reading about the Philippines and the world.
To all the Pilipinos who fought not only in Korea but also in other countries for their National Freedom. MABUHAY!
After seeing how modern Koreans perceive Filipinos today around social media, I felt hate and confusion until I learned from one of the comments that Philippines helped in the Korean war. Upon learning that I didn't feel a sense of "gotcha" moment, I just felt pride and understood that today not many people (including me) are educated about the past. I no longer hold hate for the Koreans who blindly "bully" us, instead I feel love appreciation for those who remember the courage of their countrymen and our countrymen along with many others who helped protect the core of any country. The people.
On behalf of humanity, human lives and the Filipino heart, thank you for this video and thank you to you beautiful ladies for your respect and the love for your country!

Appreciate to all Korean's for recognizing Filipino's as hero's, and thank you love your video's.
My grandfather - Sgt. Tomas Gealone was among the brave men who fought during the Korean War. He was the - Avenger 14th Battalion Combat Team member. Sadly, I never had a chance to meet him before I was born. I heard his amazing stories from Lola and I’m so proud of his valorous spirit and fearlessness during the War.
I remember the stories of some of the Filipinos who were genuinely disappointed during the cancel korea "movement" (idk what else to call it) where they were sharing stories about their grandfathers who fought alongside the Koreans during the war crying when they went back to Korea to visit that memorial center.
I love how Jessica's invibe all the knowledge she learned from the Philippine history...😘😘😘😘
Two of my uncles are Korean War Veterans. Thank you for your TH-cam channel and your understanding about Filipino soldiers that fought side by side with South Koreans and U.S soldiers .
including the Turkish, Australian, Greek (Hellenic Forces), Kiwi, Dutch, Canadian, British, Belgian, Colombian, Thai, French, Ethiopian, Luxembourgese, South African and other nations under the UN Flag who sacrificed their lives in the defense of South Korea from the invasion of neighboring North Korea in 1950 to 1953
Thank you Jessica for promoting awareness about Filipino service members who gave it all for Korea.
I urge everyone to watch 'Snowy Road' it is a film/drama starring Kim Sae Ron and Kim Hyang Gi which provides an insight on what the Korean women experienced as comfort women. I swear you won't be able to stop yourself from crying. The actresses did really well on carrying their roles. Biggest respect to the bravest women who sacrificed themselves.
i want to watch the snow road.
