Them thinking the Korean alphabet works the same as the English one is the most British thing.
To be fair the o sound written like that, to them, seemed very similar to the n. The way she wrote ㅗ made it look similar to ᄂ which confused them.
Correction , you may have meant " All Western" thing. Except maybe Russian because I think the Russian alphabet since they're proximity to Korea might be closer however most western Nations not just the English would be perplexed. Turkish Turkey may be the only Western/Middle Eastern languages that can identify with Korean vowels. Please correct me if I sound stupid saying that.
@@thevannmann it's just different way if writing, it's the same as hindi writing system though, comparing them is fair
@@halicarnassus8235 no russian/Cyrillic is just like English/Latin
@@danilapolesciuk4316 agreed but unlike Latin both Korean and Russian have a word for no. Korean I think is more Turkish when it comes to sounding pronunciation of the alphabet but that's another subject. Just like Portuguese sounds more Russian spoken, and they are at entirely different ends of the European continent and had no contact with each other. And Portugal literally is the most Western European Nation, however their vowels and cosanents soud Russian or vice versa. If you ever hear Portuguese in it's pure tongue spoken sounds almost Russian. And nothing like their neighbors immediately the Spanish of Spain.
Conan catches Jordan Schlansky coming to work late on Friday is gold
React to Conan Catches Jordan Schlansky Coming In Late. And there are multiple episodes with Schlansky. They were hugely popular at the time.
or anything with sona or his other staff is great
Jordan being late is great but them in Italy I the best because as hard as he tries to Jordan just can't keep a straight face.
Oh shit I forgot about Jordan. I'm 'bout to binge those videos.
Modern Korean is written with syllable blocks. Each block starts with 1 consonant (or sometimes a doubled consonant), then has 1, 2, or 3 vowels, and then finishes with 0, 1, or 2 consonants. The individual block is read left to right and top to bottom, and then the blocks collectively are read left to right. In that example the first block was “Ko” (코) and the second block was “nan” (난) resulting in 코난 (“Ko-nan” or “Conan”). The writing system is actually very easy, what’s difficult is that they have more base vowels than we do in English and frequent diphthongs and even triphthongs.
I believe Korean has the only alphabet that is written that way. Also the only alphabet that's design was officially commisioned
9:20 That's how Korean is written, they're written in blocks for each syllable, and it's really quite easy to learn. Their writing system was entirely designed to be easy for anyone to learn.
And yet I found it impossible lol. Oddly, Russian was easy for me to learn.
Ah, so it's syllables not each letter...interesting.
I think that's the concept behind sign language 🤔
Yes Hangul is alot easier than people think
Also the characters are suppose to be represention of how to form your mouth when prounounce the letters.
Hangul is easy to learn, it's just distinguishing words that's difficult. At least to me. 🙂
Conan is extremely popular in Korea. In part, due to this segment and many others before this. He's like a rock star over there.
Especially after being in JYPs music video with the guy from the walking dead........i think his name is Steven Yoon (I don't think I spelled it right)
@@flovonnejohnson707 So true. It's Steven Yeun, by the way. The pronunciation of the name based on your spelling is spot on.
@@eddiek8179 yea I'm working on my spelling with Korean words. It can be a little tricky. I'm in the beginning stages of learning Korean and sometimes the English spelling makes it more confusing
She definitely made it a whole lot better.🤣😂
Korean writing is done by grouping "letters" in to syllables where "letters" are read left to right, then top to bottom. 'O' is always below and 'A' always on the right.. so 코 = Ko (or Co), 난 = Nan.
Each block in Korean is a syllable. The top and bottom of a block are the start and ending sounds, so the ㄴ for N are on the top and bottom connected by a vowel ㅏ
Cool that made me even more confused lol
As a linguist I appreciate you taking time to share a bit of your knowledge. Very cool!
@@Plague_Doc22 it's actually really easy, you can learn it in 30 minutes.
So the left side is O'Brien?
@@Hoobyj The left side is "Co-"
I keep wanting to watch people react to Conan and you guys are delivering lately, thanks! hope you keep going and do a bunch of the Jordan Schlansky videos.
also his clueless gamer vids
All the bits with his assistant and with producer Jordan are really good
I've watched this so many times and it just never gets old.
Pretty sure they’ve done that
Conan started his show in the early 90's. He even said nobody thought he'd succeed, but he's funny as hell 😃. Yesterday I watched him write a song in Memphis on TH-cam and it was hilarious! You guys would like him learning etiquette in Japan. Woman just aren't shy about not liking him and of course he eats it up. Poor guy. So much of his material to get into. Thank you for sharing! 🙂
The Japanese etiquette and Rental Family videos are so funny!
If you watch Conan's early talk shows, he comes off nervous and a bit "stiff". Its crazy how much he developed into a natural in front of the TV. So funny!
@@mistaTVD3199 I think anyone would've been terrified, especially taking over David Letterman's show.
Dave had it - in Hangeul, the Korean writing system, the phonetic bookstaves are used to form syllabaries which are read top to bottom, or top to right-side to bottom-left to bottom-right if 4 bookstaves are used. The first symbol there is "k'ō" the second is "nan". Daz is right about the 'L' looking symbol representing the English "n" sound. Daz is also correct, what is rendered by 코난 would be pronounced as "k'ō-nan" but we don't actually pronounce the 'a' in his name as 'ah', but as a reduced vowel like "i" "konin". That short 'i' sound doesn't exist in Korean, so the closest approximation would be "k'ō-nen" pronounced with an 'eh' sound written as 코넨
The closest to the schwa sound in Korean is 으 (eu) or 어 (eo).
@@thevannmann What you say is true, yet in the name Conan, the 'a' is not a schwa sound, it's a short i as in 'bin', i.e. /kʰoʊ.nɪn/ (American) or /kʰəʊ.nɪn/ (UK). I've never heard anyone pronounce his name /kʰəʊ.nən/
Thanks for the clarification
I love watching people discover conan. Thank you guys so much! :)
Mike looks even more different this time! He must be exploring hairstyles in this new "phase" of his life.
he's also really talking about pornstars in this one as well
Conan in Japan is a great one too.
This shit is gold. The whole Korean episode is amazing.
I've watched Conan here and there forever but never appreciated him as much as I do now until I watched your channel. Ain't the first one I've come to discover/appreciate since I subscribed over a year ago. Cheers and keep it going!
Any of the Conan abroad bits are so brilliant! MORE PLEASE!
Sending my love and support to Mike from Portland ( yes that Portland). I'm really proud of you 👏.
I cant wait to see you guys react to "old timey baseball" and "Conan auditions for tv commercials" yall r gonna die lol
Wasn't sure it was Mike until I heard £1.50
Hearing that convinced me its him
The 1860’s baseball bit he did is amazing. He’s even said it’s one of his favorites he’s done.
He said he wants that video played at his funeral to show his favorite memory doing "Late Night w/ Conan O'brien"
She wrote it right. It says Ko nan. 코 (ko) 난 (nan) The letters combine together into syllables.
OB Mike looking cute today
Can it really be the office blokes if Mike transitions
These Conan reactions are great 👍
This is one of my favorites from his travel videos! He’s hilarious!
Conan was a writer for the Simpsons --- one of his most famous episodes the monorail episode
Conan at the Korean Spa with Steven Yeun is amazing!
Japanese can be written vertically as well. Phonetic alphabet isn't 1:1 with English. It takes 3 characters to write Conan.
Mike's going through an identity crisis.
I like what Mike's done with his hair. Very now, very hip.
I see the comments getting loaded with happy viewers.
Conan's a long, wildly entertaining rabbit hole, like "Conan Books a Commercial", & more.
Look forward to all you're doing with him.
Have a great day, TOB 👍✌️
1 down 2 to go. Once daz and dave complete their transition it’ll be like the infinity stones coming together and we’ll finally have world peace with the new and improved office blokettes!! 💅💁🏼♀️
Like the infinity stones coming together, but with no “stones” left 😭😅
Personally love the Conan in Japan videos, especially Conan's Japanese Etiquette Lesson
Yeah if they liked this one, theyll love the japanese etiquette lesson. His whole trip to japan was gold. From Conan-town to the "Rent a family" bit.
I love the Conan remotes lol just random ones like when he went to a dance studio were so funny
The one where Jordon keeps coming into work late every day. Funny video
I really like the one where he adopts a Japanese family during his stay there. It's such a strange concept, and he just runs with it.
This is the one I've recommended a few times, it's easily a favorite, along with his other remotes like American Girl Doll, commercial actor, Civil War reenactment, Japanese etiquette, soul food restaurant, and I could go on and on.
Mike is getting better looking by the day
Greetings from America, Blokes!
it's one of, if not the most, easiest writing systems and alphabets to learn. I would encourage anyone interested to look up 'Hangul' - an alphabet invented by one king to help his people read and write.
This is why Korean is one of the easiest Asian languages to learn for English speakers. Their whole system is based around sounds and syllables and every pronunciation is so distinct.
@Darkstar it's really not that hard lmao. You're overthinking it
Keep the Conan coming!!!
4:35 I'll never understand the behavior of correlating certain foods or drinks with weather types or times of the day, it's so odd to me lol
The Japanese also do that to pronounce foreign words or concepts or products phonetically. I lived in Japan for 3 years and here is my name in katakana one of the four forms of writing in Japanese. ロバートノックス
Traditionally, Chinese, Vietnamese, Korean, and Japanese are written vertically in columns going from top to bottom and ordered from right to left, with each new column starting to the left of the preceding one.
Definitely react to Conan in Japan learning Japanese etiquette.
Please react next to
1. Conan Trains To Become A Sausage Master
2.Conan Goes Hookah Shopping In Bethlehem
3. Steven Yeun and Conan visit a Korean Spa
4. Conan Learns how to survice in Australian Bush
5. Conan Encounters Australian Wildlife
6. Conan Goes Wine Tasting In Napa Valley
7.Conan O'Brien's 2011 Dartmouth College Commencement Address
Oh those are all great! especially the sausage master one and the Korean spa!
Hard to believe he actually had a talk show and not a travel show lol
Nice top, Mike.
Conan in Greenland would be great after more Conan in Korea. Actually all his remotes are great. A soul food restaurant, Mexico, Germany, New York and more.
Im loving Office bloke mike, he seemed to grow younger and Flip the switch on his genders.... Never have i met a more beautiful Mike🤣🤣
You should react to Conan learning and playing new video games! There is a video game series he does from his Conan show. It is HILARIOUS him and a celebrity guest playing new video games!
His "Clueless Gamer" series lol
@@FourFish47 YES! Thank you! I forgot the name of the series "CLUELESS GAMER"! OFFICE BLOKES NEEDS TO REACT TO SOME OF THOSE!
This was pretty funny but Conan did a whole trip in South Korea. You guys have to react to the video where he went with Steven Yeun from The Walking Dead to a Korean Spa. Fucking hilarious stuff.
Oh, you gotta watch Conan playing Footy in Mexico with the locals
Mikes looking good since the transition 😊
You should react to : "Conan & Jordan Share A Kaiseki Meal"
Such a good one. :D
Love the Crowbar shirt, Dave! They’re so underrated.
Its amazing "Crowbar" only was popular i their home country of Cabsda. They followed their predecessors and created their own band after spending time as Ronnie Hawkins' back up group..."The Hawks". Of course "The Band" was "Crowbars'" predecessors.
I only know English and Spanish but it blows my mind that 3 TH-camrs in 2022 see this 10:00 and think it's 5 characters lol
Yass ! More Conan
Do all of his Conan Abroad bits they are all fantastic. Especially Italy and Japan because he takes Jordan Schlansky.
He looks marvelous today
Watch Conan’s Japanese Etiquette Lesson next!
Traditionally, Korean was written in columns, from top to bottom, right to left, like traditional Chinese.
Daz sure likes sitting closer to "Mike" now for some reason
The Korean alphabet is phonetic unlike Chinese. There are two parts to "Conan" there - 코 'ko' and 난 'nan' to make 코난 'Konan'
Conan's stuff is not heavily scripted. That makes all the difference.
Mike now identifies as Summer Glau. Well done!
My favorite beer, all time, was Newcastle Brown Ale.
I built up an allergy to the cleansing agent they use to remove yeast sediment in wine and beer. It is made with ground exoskeleton of sea creatures like shrimp and crab, and now I am allegic to beer wine and shellfish. And I cannot drink liquor. So I moved to WA in the US where something else was legal and non allergenic.
You have to react to when Conan and Andy Richter learn a traditional German dance. This was on his visit to Munich.
Gotta do Chicago's Weiner Circle next
Conan had some great interviews with norm... there's one where it's a combination interview with Courtney Thorne Smith and norm and norm steals the show ripping on her
MORE CONAN!!!!!!
Oh my god I’m DYING laughing man!!!! Conan is my kind of weird 😂😂😂😂
Conan Plays Old Fashioned Baseball is hilarious, you guys should check it out.
TRIUMPH the Insult Comic Dog! 🤣 If I may recommend. Triumph/Star Wars video.
I like this mike better.
when writing in Korean for english names it’s syllables instead of letters so 코 is co and 난 is nan
she put "konan" and it is only 2-symbols. So i figure the sound "Ko" and "Nan" are what the 2 symols are
She is hilarious, and adorable . 🍀👍
Rehydrate 🧋🥤🧃
Ha. You are basically saying Conan triggers a little uncanny valley sensation. Yeah I see that sometimes 😂
30 DEGREES 🤣 pommy crack me up I swear
Wow! the surgery went well! Black hair and no grey!? Bigger shoulders?! I'm down!
Korean writes clockwise, and if there is no consonant to end a syllable, then it is just down. So 고 is Ko, 난 is Nan, phonetically spelling Conan.
That poor poor girl! And I’m talking about “Mike” and not the very patient teacher who has to deal with the redhead creep.
When did Mike get so hot?
You should check out Conan’s commencement speech at Dartmouth University. He’s pretty hilarious in it.
That Daz’s wife? My man all moved in CLOSE! Lol 😂
Well, I guess the next video should be Conan in Japan learning Japanese etiquette from this lady expert. That one is pretty great as well.
Mike's a sweetheart
LOL Daz made me pull google translate on Conan name and it did translate to Conan
That young lady looks like she could be Daz and Mike's daughter if they had a love child together. Lol
I was hoping you'd do this one soon. It's so cringe but I love it!
Conan is the f* best
I think New Mike is WAAAAAAAY Sexier than Old Mike. I'm in Texas..but even from here I can tell New Mike is one Fit Bird ;)
that lovely lady made this bit :D
Daz’s laugh is amazing 🤣
Office Birds React
The meanie Korean lady spelled Conan's name correctly. The first letter, is actually 2 letters. The "ㄱ" is a K-sound and it's underlined with "__" which makes an "uh" sound. Below that is the symbol "ㅗ" which makes an "O-sound". then you look up at the first "ㄴ" which makes an N-sound, to the right of that is the symbol "ㅏ" for an Ah-sound, then down to another "ㄴ" which is an N-sound. So, it's (K-uh)-O-N-Ah-N. 🙃
No, ㅋ is a k sound, ㄱ is more a g sound like a 'voiced' k. An ㅗ vowel beneath an ㅡ vowel is not valid in Hanguel.
The Cuba special was always my favorite
