Thank you!
Justin really has a very good disposition. Her mom raised him well.
Agreed! Behind every great man is a great mother
Pls mag tagalog ka naman pwede 😊
His parents' story is very much like Ryan Bang's parents' story. The dad got into a deep debt and they also separated,which was one of the reasons why Ryan was sent here to the Philippines to study and experience a different life.
same as sandara park
I grew up in Baguio city, traveled to Manila and Cebu a few times now based in NYC - all are stereotyped as “dangerous” and I’ve never been robbed in all these places, etc… guess where I was robbed? PARIS and BARCELONA!!!
Barcelona is Pick pocket central!!
@@go2ferdiewas in Barcelona last November and one of my friends almost got robbed. Luckily there’s a cop nearby and the robber was caught. He’s an old man.
in every country there's a bad people not only in PH..
I heard there’s a lot of robbers too in Brazil.
@musikeradaw .....because a lot of people always give advice, especially when someone is in times of need. luckily, they've already shared their experiences, so that the next set of persons won't be victimized.
What a story of a young man and an awesome matriarch mother who knows nothing in the island
and has a bold move to bring his family in a new life.... and be successful!
I've been in many countries and spent my lifetime in the West, what I can tell you is this:
THERE ARE MORE FREEDOM IN THE PHILIPPINES THAN THE MOST ADVANCED COUNTRIES IN THE WORLD, THAT INCLUDE AMERICA.
Also, one thing I know, if you are in trouble in the Philippines, the Filipinos will helps you. I've been to China, I saw a man tripped in the sidewalk and no one helps the poor man.
Don't forget the FILIPINO sense of HUMOUR which is unique and more fun compared to other countries (if they have one hehehe)
I’m so amazed when a non Filipino loves Philippines and proud to be here❤️ Justin is so positive! Kudos to his mom❤️
Pinoys 🇵🇭 abroad should also love 💖 their adoptive countries and they should also be proud to be there 😌😀
samantalang tayo namang pilipino gusto namang manirahan sa ibang bansa nyahahaha
I was a product of Philippines school. Immigrated in USA and I took SAT exam at one of the community colleges here in Illinois USA. I was referred to an American Ivy League universities, one of them is Harvard.
I am curious to find out, what are the difference between USA and Philippine school systems?
@@Takaaa01I graduated in Southwestern University in Bachelor of science in Medical technology in 1986 and few of my classmates went to the USA to work and they were easily accepted with no hassle! The system of education in the Philippines is adopted in an American system of education, however, it’s the contrary to where I live now, in Brussels, Belgium. In the late 80’s , I’ve been literally obliged to go back to university for 2 years to have the equivalent of my diploma and learn the language French and Dutch here in Brussels!
❤
Had a BSE diploma from PNC now PNU and the standard of education back in the day was really gruelling but very grateful it was that way. Also had a few units for Masters in UP and hey it's another institutions that produced/produces highly educated and qualified people. Very happy to hear that foreigners are now discovering the educational system in Pinas and how beautiful the country and people are.
Welcome everybody but just be careful and aware. Enjoy my birth place.
@Heartland29 that is amazing because your English is terrible-
I remember Sandara Park of his story, glad that he completely adopt everything Filipino traits and culture, God bless you.
Pinoys 🇵🇭 in USA 🇺🇸 should also adopt American 🇺🇸 traits and culture 😌😀
The way he speaks makes me think he’s a pretty decent young man.
I guess he is.
Ideal Fil Values?
Great man off camera. Family oriented and dedicated to his studies
@@Takaaa01i'm new to your channel, are you half Filipino?
@@ericpoochie Yes, I am a half Filipino half Japanese
His mom is amazing from how he described her and when he speak about they’ve been through without their Dad growing up. Kudos for his Mom.❤
Your accent just like a Filipino very clear ❤❤❤ mabuhay
His life story is something to look up to, especially with the younger generations who does not appreciate their parents, esp their mom's efforts and sacrifices. Life is not always easy, even for the most successful people.
Thank you for loving the Filipino culture ❤️
Good to know korean culture as well.
Korea and Philippines has been brothers for ages now. Mabuhay Philippines and Korea.❤
Thanks for loving my country. It's your country too after living here for so long, you are no difference than us Filipinos. Mahal ko ang nagmahal ng Pilipinas. Mabuhay!
People raised by single parents hit different ❤❤❤ #longlivesingleparents
❤️❤️❤️
Shout Out to all Single Mother and Parent. You are the bravest and strongest person in the world just like my mom.
Agreed!
The way he say it's always to have a good time coming back home.. ❤
❤️❤️❤️
you have a supportive Mom,, salute to your mom 🎉❤
❤️❤️❤️
It's an awesome experienced growing up in the Philippines 🇵🇭 Justin you're really a great role model to all foreigners who would love to migrate here in the Philippines. I appreciate you very much. Mabuhay!
Things really had changed so much in my home country the Philippines. Back in the 1970's everyone wants to leave because there were no opportunities. Even if you finish college you will end up working the farm or do office or industrial jobs for a pay that can only afford you to live in poor standard conditions and limited food. Now we have a lot of Koreans, Indians, Africans and even westerners coming to the Philippines to seek a better life. I almost cannot believe I would live to see this day to come. Soon I would be taking a trip and see the great transformation of my homeland with my own eyes.
I'm sure compared to back then, you might be surprised how much our homeland has progressed. hope your return is a warm welcome!
All you'll see is traffic. All the cities ex BGC, Makati and Cebu business districts are still ugly
So so true👌. Feel the same way.😔
My brother graduated college 🎓 in 1991. The ceremony was held at PICC. There were a ton of foreigners among graduates whites, Indians, Arabs... strangely I don't recall seeing any foreign women, only men.
Very interesting story...I love this story. This video made me remember when I've had tutoring lessons for South Korean students way back in 1998-2000, who went in here to study English...it was very memorable to me because, I was able to learn some Korean words ( basic greetings ) and to be able to act as their tour guide during vacation. We went to El Nido, Boracay and Puerto Galera...very interesting. I love Korean people. Their Asian and at some point, have similar culture as East Asian like us Filipinos.
I love eating the Kimchi up until now...
All the best Justine.Thank for being pusong pinoy.
Watching from Canada.
By happenstance I came upon this video! FYI, I find you both exceptional young men; interviewer and interviewee. I too am an expat. I, a Pinay was raised in the U.S.A. after 1st grade and visited Phil only once after my
high school graduation in the state of Maryland. I experienced and duly appreciated much of what I heard in your dialogue. As an American I am proud of my cultural duality. With advance university degrees behind me, my military indoctrination to become a successful U.S. military officer forced me to crack my clamshell open in order to physically and mentally succeed. I had the BEST time of my life. I wish you both the very best in your endeavors!
❤❤❤ JUSTIN REALLY SPEAKS EXCELLENT ENGLISH.
... NO KOREAN ACCENT , WHATSOEVER.
IT'S SO COOL LISTENING TO HIM ... WITH THAT "ANNOUNCER-VOICE.".
GOOD LUCK. GODBLESS 🙏
GOOD LUCK PRIVATEJUSTINE! THE FEW THE BRAVE THE MARINES FIRST TO FIGHT LAST TO GO. MAKE YOUR COUNTRY, PROUD, MAKE YOUR FRIENDS PROUD, MAKE YOUR FAMILY PROUD, ESPECIALLY MAKE YOUR MOTHER EVEN PROUDER. SEE YOU ON THIS CHANNEL AFTER YOUR MILITARY SERVICE IN S. KOREA.
❤️❤️❤️
New subscriber from California. Thank you bro for all the love you have given to our beloved country and people. Goodluck in your endeavor and wishing you all the very best. God bless you always.
Pinoys 🇵🇭 abroad should also make their adoptive countries their beloved 😌😀
Welcome to the fam!
He can work as a translator in Kdramas as he's very fluent in Tagalog(I believe) & his English is great! ❤❤❤
His English is at its best ❤ he talks like pinoy 😊
I truly respect guys who loves and with high respect to their Mothers, it is already a manly gesture God bless Justin on your enlistment ❤
This is an awesome back ground story of a South Korean who spent about the majority of his life in the Philippines. I'm not Pinoy, but have been to the Philippines many, many times and loved it. Also, I was stationed in South Korea when I was in the U.S. Army near the Demilitarized Zone (DMZ). I'm Native American Indian with the Navajo Tribe and happy Justin will serve in the South Korean military as it is mandatory. I volunteered to serve and I'm happy I made that choice because it surely showed me the right path to take when I left the military service. Can't wait until you return and I think you'll be glad how much of a positive impact it would for Justin.
Wow! Great story there you got sir. Thank you for your services and your comment!
Some korean parents they want her sibling to go philippines after collage to take study english language. Philippines is a second home by south korean.
Amazing story. Explore more videos guys. Watching u from Cairo, Egypt originally from Davao City the Philippines. 💖🇵🇭🇪🇬
Thank you for the love and support! ❤️
Justin sounds like a great guy. Wish him all the best. First time to watch a video on this channel. Great job to the host for keeping it interesting!
Nice, warm interview. I felt the bromance between you two. Good luck to Justin! ❤
They (korean) raise their children to be competitive , investing in good quality education is very important for them.
You are a natural born broadcast journalist. Your voice is so good and you ask a lot of interesting questions. I also noticed that you know the right approach to your interviewee and was very careful/sensitive and respectful to him. I don't know what your life goals are but you would be a good documentarist on tv and on social media.
@@betcha1134 hey, really appreciate this comment! As of now, being young puts me in a place of really discovering and understanding myself and the career path to take. In a sense, a bit of a shiny object syndrome. Because of that, I’ve left my channel on a hiatus and am still trying to figure out the “new rebrand” or carry on the same niche. It’s comments like these that make me realize why I’ve built this channel to begin with.
Cheers 🥂
9:17 "That's life" Dang this dude is a true Filipino at heart
I’m a single mom and a widow for my 2 older kids and i am separated with my youngest kid. My 2 older kids i think have better perspective coz they have closure with their dad but my youngest whom was separated from his father at 3 months and old and never have any effort to visit him, i can somehow understand his future perspective from you guys. He is still young now but he says he doesn’t not like his dad. I think it’s normal for children who felt left out. But i am inspired for it see that you grow up quite well ❤
Thank you for sharing your experience!
There’s a lot of bullying in the Korean military. They aim to break you unfortunately…wishing you luck and good health. Stay strong.
Wishing you all the best Justin😄
❤️❤️❤️
justin became a strong person with what i think based on his story just subscribed from manila.nice content
❤😊
Thank you! Welcome to the minor reviews fam!
They both speak perfect English, grammatically correct and well enunciated. Amazing.
Welcome back to Philippines Justin...
Good luck in the military. Justin seems like a nice level headed young man.
Agreed!
The way he speak so good because English so clear, so proud the education standard of the Philippine
His story gives inspiration to me and to others . No need to be ashamed of it coz those are things he is not in control of. Despite of that , he grew up well, respecting and loving his mother and that is what molded him into having a strong and well rounded personality
Why do I feel like the Korean guy have more positive outlook on things here in the Philippines than the interviewer. Is it as if the interviewer is instigating the Korean guy to say bad things living here in the Philippines. The Korean guy seems like he have good life here in the Philippines and Im happy that he did. It’s frustrating when “some” of the people who do this kind of interview push the negative aspects of life here in the Philippines as if we haven’t have enough of it already.
Or you're just naturally cynical? 🤔
He's a great guy, good luck to him in enlisting military. I'm curious if he can speak our language though.
Mrunong po ata sya 16yr sya sa pinas
Yes! He can! He communicated to the locals here with near perfect Filipino.
If they were Filipino and migrated in Korea (2 kids and a divorcee mom), they will be treated harshly by Koreans. I would say Filipinos are the only people on earth who are so supportive with other nationalities. I hope Koreans would know this, I hope Koreans wouldnt be looking down on Filipinos. Because each Koreans who lived in the Philippines were treated nicely by Filipinos. I also hope they wouldnt be racist and judged people by their skin color.
My grand nephew is half South Korean and Pilipino
He graduated in Philippines with a degree of Bachelors degree of Law and after graduation he work in South Korea to teach English . He moved to NYC cos he was not accepted in Korea even his step sisters in Korea. Now he is happy in New York.
Wow! Very nice interview and story! Your dynamic also seems great! All the best to you, Justin! Hoorah!
❤️❤️❤️
Korean companies that operate here are very supportive to koreans , they offer higher salary rate.
I'm new to this channel and you've got ways of making the interview interesting.I hope you will have more koreans stories like this in the future.❤
This is a great interview! Thanks for sharing this from non Filipino point of view. Thanks for sharing your personal journey Justin ❤👍🙏 all the best with your future
❤️❤️❤️
All praises to your Mom❤take care,stay safe and healthy in your military enlistment😊
I was just gonna say the same things about Sandara Park, the same unfortunate situation when her father’s business got bankcrupt.
Sandara Park and this guy had become so though and resilient.
Thats the beauty in the struggle!
❤Hey,Justin,sure you've been raised well by ur single mother, as a results based on ur experienced esp since childhood. So sure that you will become a good father and a good husband later on,You're not alone in this kinda situations in life.Good Luck
❤️❤️❤️
Hes sounds like an american / thanks for liking being more a filipino 😊😊😊
Yeah, Filipino kids from private schools sound American..
A million thanks to you , You’re appreciated my beautiful 😍 country 🇵🇭.

The beau of having exp 2 culture, you get to pick the best of both worlds
Nice interview.. Praise to your mom Justin. ❤❤❤
Awesome interview. You’re one of the best vloggers in the world 🌎 👍👍👍✌️🇺🇸
Aw sweet! Thank you very much! Much love all the way from the Philippines 🇵🇭
Coming from CSA its like an International school. Thats why the english is American
Colegio San Agustin may be the most diverse school in terms of nationality but it's not considered an international school. It's a private, Catholic co-ed school in Dasma Village, Makati that follow the Philippine school system and curriculum. International School Manila (ISM), British School Manila, Brent International School, Southville Int'l School and Colleges, Reedley International School, Beacon Academy are some of the known international schools in Manila that follow the IB, English, or American curriculum.
He speaks so well...
Justin’s English is so American
That's is conyo english
@@lovelillyloveit's just English.
American English with very Filipino accent
I like your interviewing skills, very respectful, intelligent and fun. Keep it up and God bless.
Thank you!
Happy Valentine's ❤️
Nice video love the convo
Thank you so much, glad you enjoyed! ❤️❤️
Keep safe happy and healthy
This interview touch my heart, i appreciatte you young man, this is the right thing be open minded , everything happen for a reason,
Nice interview. Calm vibes from both sides.
Thank you so much!
Koreans should know that the Filipino soldiers helps Koreans during the war
I believe it should work both ways, for instance the battle of yultong was one of the most notable war efforts between the two nations.
Great! Broad mindedness people and positive..they could live wtherever they want to live on this earth....love it...
Justin is a cool guy ,take care ur self for sure u will learn a lot too from military
the Sto. Nino fiesta, Sinulog Festival Celebration, people came in dancing with different costumes their tribe represents.
What a gOod guy😊Mapapasanaol kna lng talaga❤❤
For someone who learn English in the Philippines, his english sound like his from Los Angeles California. Yes So Cal Asian sound like him. I know I'm from L.A South Bay Area. He got the beach vibe accent. And I say pretty impressive.
Because he studied in a high end school.
Such a nice talked.. I enjoyed watching hou fuys. I hope there ia more conversation coming up.. God bless toi both..
Thank you for this! Yes, there will be a part 2 coming out after the military service of Justin in a years time so stay tuned!
At first i thought he was my student named Justin, who is also Korean. But my student was older and he is done with military service. And oh, you go to the same University in Pohang. I WISH you would meet him someday, his name is Lee Yechan, or Justin in English
What a cool coincidence!
Best wishes to Justin as he accomplishes his mandatory military service. With his mastery of the English language, he should become a KATUSA. His language skills would definitely be appreciated by the Unie States Army. Unfortunately, your link to Justin doesn't allow you to follow him as his profile is private.
Justin's childhood story is very much different from most Filipino children whose parents have to leave them to find a living (many ended up being abused and murdered in another country where they served and worked). Some parents make good choices and Justin's Mom, if we believe every word he said about her, probably made an educated choice whatever the reasons were for their move.
Wishing u all the best justine coming from a lola .take care
This guy has great English. Grew up in the Philippines and then spent last two years in South Korea? If I didn't know his background, I'd think he'd spent some time in the U.S. His English is very western.
He sounds humble. Plus point
Nice interview and God bless to justin and mom and also to you sir
He has the filipino accent ❤❤❤
Awww this is a good video. ❤
Surveillance camera has 2 sides. Making you feel safe or it’s not that safe so monitoring is important.
They both speak good command of Engkish language. 😊
MONEY MATTERS THATS BIG TROUBLES SO BE PROUD OF YOUR MOM TO SEPARATE THATS BURDEN MESSY THINGS OF HAVING FAMILY BE SIMPLE AND PEACE TO LIVE ❤❤
He sounds like an American,with his accent.Good luck to him !
Salute to your mom braveness 🫡
I think the questions are way too personal in the first parts. It should have been better if there are questions pointing out his being more Filipino than Korean. Like how Filipino he is really or Filipino traits acquired or even what foods he likes best or Filipino culture he was able to adapt since he stayed almost all his lifetime in the country. It is also good if he can showcase his Filipino speaking skills if any.
Nice conversation though. It’s homey. But I was just waiting for like more on the topic that Philippines is his home. 😊
Watching from Thailand. 🇹🇭
Thank you for your critique, I will take this
@@Takaaa01 We all learn along the way. You have a very good niche. Keep up the good work and good luck on your YT journey. 🙏🏻
Ina antay ko pa naman ang tagalog na salita hehe. Akala ko mag ta tagalog siya hahaha!!! Mahal ko kayo lang narinig ko.
(I'm waiting for his tagalog, I thought he would speak for it hahaha!!) Only the Mahal ko kayo I heard hehe
Great video. Thank you for sharing ❤. Excellent interview.
Glad you enjoyed it. You are most welcomed!
Pls tell him to do the channel on his own hehhee i wanna watch him more and his family life herr in the philippines
Lets all convince him!
There were lots of conversation about separation and his father but no mention about his mother's job or business, and how he dealt with locals, wether he have Filipino friends or not.
Apologies for not being able to mention those earlier. You can check out the business his family runs, its a Korean restaurant and in my opinion the best in the country.
Haru Korean Restaurant Makati
I lov south korea. Anniyong haseyo ! Lov fr phils
