@5:11 "I'm a Korean getting culture shocked by Korean culture". Lol. You still have not lost your Filipino sense of humor. Philippines miss you Juwonee.
So cool that your Psyche is pure Filipina. Just remember to embrace the two cultures and you'll be more happier and wiser than most of the people you meet.
Troy, 20 years from childhood hanggang nagdalaga sya ay nandito sya sa Pinas. 1 year pa lang sya nakabalik sa Korea. Ini-expect mo bang mag tonong korean ang tagalog nya?😁😁
After two yrs, starting from the onset of pandemic, since my Toshiba laptop broke down, it is only recently, courtesy of my son that I had access on internet. I am not aware that she is that popular among internet users. Long leave South Korea!
I'm impressed the way you narrate yourself, experiences and observations about Philippines. Your fluency in Tagalog and English were impressive. More power to you.
When I watched your video, it was me who got culture shocked by how candid and natural your Tagalog was. 😁😍😁I hope you won't forget the Philippines now that you are back in Korea.
Hi Juwonee, I like the way narrate your experiences, both in Tagalog and English at very fluent ha. Intelligent ka, nakakatuwa, so natural flow of thought mo na genuine feel talaga. Aabot sa 500k subs ka, I pray, mula sa Korea at Pinas. Puede kang ambassador ng Korea to Pinas, or vice versa. More videos please. Guisto ko din sila Ms. KrispyP, Dasuri C, Ryan Bang,
Omg I have experienced this! I studied in France for a year when I was in college, and have gone through almost all the stages, probably 3.5 lol Kasi hindi naman ako na fully integrated, but I got adjusted in sa French society by my 3rd month. Then when I came back sa US(born in Philippines pero grew up sa US), na culture shock ako going back home 🤣 I started missing the boulangeries, fromageries, the public transportation, the historical buildings, etc.
Same! I’m also a Fil-Am (born in the Ph) and I lived in Paris for 2 yrs. Experienced everything the video says and when I returned to the US, I totally miss France 😢 I miss my life over there. But I’m happy to be back too.
I like the way you explained about the stages of culture shock. It is very true. I am an OFW in Japan and I've been living and working here for more than 6 years now. And honestly, I've just gotten to the 4th stage honestly on the 5th year. For other people, they can adapt much earlier depending on how fast they'd embrace the foreign society they're in and how much rooted they've been in their own culture. Overall, thank you for sharing this vlog. I've had sudden reflections about my life here. ☺️
In my observation, you have a mixed of 3 worlds....Western, Pinoy middle-class and Korean cultures. You adapt to them really well...and i find you funny with a good sense of humor (pinoy style)....😁
One good thing being a filipino is that we don’t worry about culture shock since we try and can adapt to any place, situation or environment easily and asap. Our philosophy is: that’s part of life and God will provide; why worry.
Sure, Filipinos are adaptable but, of course, they experience culture shock be it climate, local customs, shopping habits or food. It would be odd if you didn't.
Yeah to much pricy yung mga product in other nation and you do on that plus yung mga lasa ng food may mga food na nakakagulat yung idea like sa tokboki na parang suman na inilagay sa sweet and spicy na may asim konti so massanay ka rin naman
Filipinos do too. Everyone does that goes someplace that is unfamiliar and culturally different but the only difference with pinoys is they adapt so well that some forget their own culture. I know plenty of full blooded pinoys who know very little or none at all about Pinoy culture. I'm only 1/4 Pinay but I've met others who are so shocked that I know the culture and speak my grandma's dialect. Meanwhile, the other Asians I know are the opposite. They make sure their kids never forget.
Yup. I definitely experience Reverse Culture Shock when I go back to the Philippines. I can’t drive in Manila or in the provinces anymore, although I had been driving in Manila for several years before I left the country. But I’m sure if I stay long enough in the country, I’ll get used to everything again.
Nice presentation! Very informative. You are probably Filipino culture to the core even while your parents and you preserved Korean culture in the PI. But, do your parents speak Tagalog too? You’re so good at it! Obviously since you pretty much lived in PI your whole life. Enjoy the two cultures that make up who you are!
Nkakatuwa pakinggan storya mo. 😊 Specially when you're speaking Tagalog I would never imagine you as anything else but local. Your diction, phrasing, inflection, vocabulary, all the elements of a native Tagalog speaker are there. I hope you're enjoying the transition to your Korean life. ❤
just subscribed now kc nakita ko ang sincerity mo..ur one of a kind korean who loved and embraced Filipino culture without any hesitations and doubts ta all
You are so adorable! Why did you go back to Korea? I am a Filipino living in Arizona for the last 32 years. Seeing you talk in Tagalog is so fascinating!!
Welcome back to YT. I hope to see you more of you. Interesting insight about your "culture Shock" experiences at nakakatuwa. Madaming Pinoy foods na maypagka alat at dahil dun, madaming pinoy din na may hypertension. Tanog ko lang, were you glad that you were educated sa Pilipinas knowing the intense pressures of the school life in Korea vs. sa Pilipinas?
Your tagalog is like those of the pinoy kids as we call it mga "sosyalin",taglish but still very pinoy accent. I love watching your vlogs,it's kinda cute😉
Glad to see your vlog. You speak very well Filipino or English, you’re very entertaining, pretty and nice to listen to your stories. Keep it up & a lit of people will follow you.
I'm a Filipino who immigrated with my family to Montreal (Canada) over 35 years ago and was expat to Manila a few years ago. My first reverse culture shock was how everyobe used kuya (older brother), ate (olser sister) and nanay (mother) to anyone regardless of age to you as long as they are about your age or older. Second was the cleaning of table in a fast food area, we are so used to cleaning up our mess here in Montreal after a meal that it was automatic for me but once in Manila, I was being scolded by the cleaners that I was taking away their duties 😊. The other was the tipping - when you are used to leaving 10-20% of tip in Canada then to the least you should the server in Manila, this was a little bit humiliating for me but I was scolded by all of my friends everytime.
After living in Australia for over a year I returned to Manila and got so bothered seeing beggars and homeless people in the streets. Nadudurog Yun puso ko. It took me almost years to get used to seeing them again. After seeing a place where poverty and hopelessness is almost absent, then moving back to the Philippines... it's so jarring.
A Pinoy traveller and now here living in Canada for a decade, i may say travelling and living abroad made me more appreciative of the differences of people. The only thing we need to do when dealing with other nationalities or other cultures is to be kind.your kindness will show how good you are living outside your comfort zone. More power to your channel!
Interesting. I am a Canadian that has lived in Korea for 24 years. I might have encountered some culture shich but before that I had lived in Europe for 8 years. When I go back to Canada I feel a little culture shock because things have changed but people there expect me to know because I look and sound like them. But I don’t know how some things work or heard of them and really Canadians get impatient because I ask questions about things that are obvious to them they think everyone knows. Actually last time I was there I was glad to get back to Korea where everything is normal.
I am a Batangueño senior citizen who stumbled into one of your videos, the one with Batangueño accent. This video is the second one i’ve watched. I kept laughing and sometimes to the point of tears. Your Batangueña accent is real. I dare say you are a Batangueña who looks like a Korean 😂🤣
It's so interesting to hear your experiences of reverse culture shock! I, too, had reverse culture shock when I went to the Philippines to stay with my dad. I'm fully Filipino, but I was born and raised in the US. So, my home culture is America since I spent pretty much my entire life here. I ended up staying in the Philippines for almost 3 years, and while I've visited in the past, I've never stayed for more than 3 months. I got the first culture shock when I had to adjust to living in the Philippines for so long. Nag-adjust naman ako sa Pilipinas kasi full immersion sa kultura at wika yun, pero at least may background ako ng Tagalog gawa ng upbringing ko. Nagsalita ng magulang ko ng Tagalog sa bahay, pero yung mga sagot ko ay English. 😅 But when I got back to the US after adjusting to the Philippines, that was when I got my reverse culture shock. Tama ka naman sa mga phases ng ganyan. First, I was so glad to be back and talking to people who could understand my native tongue, and everything is so organized and efficient. (Sidenote: Sobrang taas ang fluency mo sa Tagalog. Kung narinig ko lang ng salita mo at hindi ko nakita na Koreana ka, akala ko na ikaw ay purong Pilipina talaga.) Then, I realized that every day life is very different. I had to readjust to the faster pace of everything here as compared to the Philippines, as well as how to interact with Americans. After about half a year, I finally started to feel normal again. Since your home culture is the Philippines, you'll definitely feel reverse culture shock when you go back there. But in time, it will feel all right. I think the initial shock of going to somewhere that you're not familiar with is stronger than the reverse, but maybe that's different for everyone. Also, this was my first time seeing your videos, so I'm a new subscriber now.
Hello 👋. New subscriber here from the USA, though Filipino (-American). Your story is unique, interesting, admirable. Your love of the Philippines, your sadness when you flew out, are unsurprisingly, emotionally, understandably, lovable. Your Tagalog is perfect, together with the accent. Your English sounds Pinoy-ish, too---like a Filipino speaking English. You are funny, too. Be yourself and don't change. 😉 On second thought, I would not consider your scenario "reverse culture." Having brought to the Philippines when you were just 4 years, I would posit that at that point in time, you had not been exposed or experienced Korean culture yet, being that you still had baby milk in your mouth. So, in my view, you are just undergoing a plain one-way culture shock, no reverse yet. 😑
Ung salty foods sa Pinas, for me is for replenishing of electrolytes since even just walking around in a 30-33+C will make you sweat. Isa pa, we're a maritime country loving the bountiful seafood and it's flavors. Basta malakas lang mag hydrate. Sarap eh😁
Not gonna lie. I’ve never seen an ethnic Korean that’s also a Filipino national. Also I’ve never heard of reverse culture shock before. Edit: I’ve probably would have never guessed she’s actually Korean considering there are many Filipina women that can look like her in some way. For example, my wife is Filipina but some people mistake her for Japanese due to her fair complexion. For the record, I’m Filipino myself but I was mistaken for Latino a couple of times due to my light-brown complexion. Which is a little funny to me considering I’m actually learning Spanish due to the Philippines slowly reintegrating the language. Also for the record: My wife was born and raised in the Philippines whereas I was born and raised in the United States. My wife is currently living with me in the U.S.
Instant fan here. Amazed at your trilingual fluency. Swabeng swabe ang code switching. 😁 And your personal experience of straddling two cultures is fascinating. Looking forward to more interesting content on your channel.
Staying here in the Philippines for more than a decade can really change someone no matter where that person came from. Particularly, gaining the experience and knowledge of two different cultures.
@@donronron1806 I would say she's culturally Filipina. I grew up eating Filipino food (and was born there and am pure Filipino) as she grew up eating Korean food, but I'm culturally American 'cuz I grew up in the US. Because I was an immigrant, I label myself Filipino-American as opposed to just plain American.
I’m a FilAm. I just find you so cute transitioning from one language to the other and then you make Tagalog comments na I know only true Filipinos know. So cute!😆👍🏻
Hi,i really like your content.just curious,Are U still coming back to the philippines?I thank U for appreciating the filipino culture.U have a pusong pinoy
@@Juwonee thank U for replying back.HonestIy I wasn’t expecting U to reply that fast.knowing U have alot of people commenting on your video.I appreciate the time for reading and replying back.thank U so much.stay safe always
Dito sa Pinas nabibilang lang ung mga honest na tao, ung kayang ibalik or sauli Ang napulot na wallet or Phone. Ako noong high school Ako naka pulot Ako ng Pera pero sinauli ko sa may Ari tapos noong college Ako nahulog ko ung wallet ko na may Pera walang nagsauli sa akin, pang tuition ko pa Naman ung noon. .kaya sana maging honest din lahat sana Ang mga tao Dito sa Pinas..
She did really made an effort to read for this relevant topic and share it to us who wanted to know (more) about the Korean culture and differentiate or relate it with ours. Salamat 🙏
Dude, I experienced the same thing when I tried KFC (and McDonald's) as well sa Vietnam, Malaysia, Thailand and Singapore. Each country had their own specialty food that my cousins and I tried for the sake of trying them kahit na some of them we didn't like to eat talaga. Hope to see more of your videos soon!
This is what my facebook friends tell me as well.. Pupunta ka ng x country tapos kakain ka lang sa McDo?? then i reply to them na "duuude, iba iba mcdo sa ibat ibat lugar gusto ko lang subukan kahit 1x lang"" HAHAHA
I left the Philippines when there was an influx of Koreans moving into Manila. And now seeing how they integrated so much, especially with how we communicate, I find it refreshing. I love it :)
Me naman when I had a one-month vacation in my home country, the Philippines, after living in South Korea for about 2 years: Hindi na sanay sumakay ng jeep. Iniisip ko noon eh baka kasi sa loob ng 2 years na wala ako, hindi na pwedeng sumakay sa nakasanayan kong sakayan, baka hindi na pwedeng magbaba ng pasahero kung saan-saan, etc. Pero I regained my hometown-self after a week... So basically, I'm already at that fifth stage of culture shock na "Oh! I forgot it's like here"... Yun lang...
Trivia lang po. Nung mga 70s, 80s, and 90, yung mga taga-South na pumupunta ng Maynila ay biglang hindi na marunong mag-salita ng kani-kanilang sarilang salita kapag umuwi. Kasi daw nasanay na raw sa accent. Pero kapag nasaktan ayun bumabalik naman sa dati 😅🤣
So cool seeing a korean that's so fluent in Taglish and familiar with Filipino culture. I wish I could stay in the Phil for as long as it takes to integrate into the society like that. Alas, I have to make money to keep my Pilipino fam afloat and save enough money to keep going back to the Phil from the US.
tawang-tawa ako when she said "yung mga Koreans" teh! di ka ba Korean? HAHA but yeah I do agree ASAN ANG ASIN??? there are only two flavors here in Korea, spicy and bland. Well, the chips are a bit sweet, even the Cheetoes, nakakaloka. haha
Natawa ako sa sabi niya na "Yung mga koreans" hahaha cute thanks Juwonee for adapting Filipino Culture. I am very interested to go to Korea as well and experience the culture.
Wow I do not know what drew me to your youtube channel but I am fascinated by your personality and how you view things having been raised in Philippines. Speaking Tagalog, English and Korean. It's interesting that you have no sign of a tan having lived in the Philippines all those years. You look to almost have near perfect skin. Your one of a kind and very fascinating. I will be watching more because I believe you could educate me quite a lot on culture differences.
Very informative. Para kang student pa rin na nagrereport sa isang klase.. hehehe.. And you're right. Napagdaanan ko rin yung mga stages na yan. At naexcite akong mareverse culture shock pag balik ko ng pinas. Good luck sa mga next videos mo.
Yung tungkol sa spam, nanonood ako ng Korean cooking show dito sa YT and may narinig akong tip sa kaniya na hugasan daw ang ham bago iluto para mabawasan yung alat, so baka ganon din ginagawa nila sa mga restos para lesser saltiness. Pagpapaalam part, yes (both me and my sis both mid and late 30s still update our parents if we have arrived or where we are especially pag nasa labas pa kami tapos pamidnight na hahahaha) Tapos yung sa dry air, baka kaya mostly ng mga musicians use humidifier para sa voice nila. I remember si Kang Gary ng running man noon used a wet towel, draped it on his bed frame while sleeping para daw moist yung air at kailangan alagaan yung boses niya. Ang sarap pakinggan ng tagalog niyo po hehe
Sa sobrang tuwa ko sayo napa subs na ako. You look 100 percent Korean pero napaka fluent mo sa Tagalog. Mind blowing. Hahahah keep it up sa vlogging journey dito sa YT. 😉
This video popped up on my feed and now I’m your new subscriber! I was born in the Philippines, currently learning Hangul, but I’ve lived in the US since 2000. Just dropping by to say you’re super cool😎
My 1st comment is that you are beautiful really 😍, very good to hear that you speak Tagalog fluently and have a nice perception of where you lived for so long , nothing/nowhere is perfect anyway , thank you thank you for coming here in the Philippines hope you enjoyed your stay. I laughed when you said that the 4 seasons is in the juice hahahaha coz we have only 2 - dry and wet(summer and rainy) and you said Salt in your fries hahahaha...Good luck to your new endeavor
Her English is spoken with a Philippine city accent, as opposed to the majority of the ones working in the US who did not grow up there who speak with a province accent.
Honestly.... mas mahirap mag adjust and adapt pag matanda ka na vs. Bata ka pa. Well.... as far as my experience is concerned. Pero ang kasabihan mga eh... "It's nothing time can't take care of." Hang in there...kaya mo yan! 😎
yeah il be waiting your next vlog when you get back here in the Philippines. Will there be a reverse culture shock when you get back? i wnat to find it out....by the way i enjoyed for the first time watching your vlog here in your channel.
i love your sit down videos. i just wish may microphone ka kasi kailangan ko i-max yung volume para maintindihan yung sinasabi mo tapos basag yung eardrums ko dahil sa transition effect 😭😭😭 keep up the good work juwon!!
@5:11 "I'm a Korean getting culture shocked by Korean culture". Lol. You still have not lost your Filipino sense of humor. Philippines miss you Juwonee.
So cool that your Psyche is pure Filipina. Just remember to embrace the two cultures and you'll be more happier and wiser than most of the people you meet.
Cant get enough how good her tagalog is
Eh? She lived in PH since she was tiny!
@@Alan_Mac I know but its still interesting to me to see a full 100% Korean speak Tagalog very fluently.
If I only heard her voice and not seen her I would think she is Tagalog
mas matatas pa siyang magTagalog kaysa mga taal na Pinoy
Bruh. If you live in Korea(or any country really) for a long time you'll learn how to speak their language too even without studying it.
Salute you that you speak Tagalog fluently. Thanks for loving the Philippines 😍🇵🇭
I like ur accent while speaking in Filipino. Filipino accent. Very fluent.
Sa Pinas kasi lumaki kaya naadopt niya Ang Filipino ascent.
Sa pinas Kasi SIYA lumaki. Buong life nya nasa pinas syA.
Thank you po!

Hello !! its nice to see you again in ur youtube channel..I like the way you speak tagalog..God bless and more vlogs to come😘💕
Not gonna lie. I’ve never seen an ethnic Korean that’s also a Filipino national. Also I’ve never heard of reverse culture shock before.
Edit: I’ve probably would have never guessed she’s actually Korean considering there are many Filipina women that can look like her in some way. For example, my wife is Filipina but some people mistake her for Japanese due to her fair complexion. For the record, I’m Filipino myself but I was mistaken for Latino a couple of times due to my light-brown complexion. Which is a little funny to me considering I’m actually learning Spanish due to the Philippines slowly reintegrating the language.
Also for the record: My wife was born and raised in the Philippines whereas I was born and raised in the United States. My wife is currently living with me in the U.S.
I love and laugh when you said "...walang lalabas na asen... asan yung asen?" Perfect Filipino accent!!!
Oh my god. It's so weird (in a good way) to know a Korean who's got a VERY PINOY HUMOR. 😂
I love your 'shorts' and been watching it! So happy that you're also in YT now. Much ❤❤❤ from PH!
I feel you when you said "asan yung asin". HAHAHAHA
ASAAAAAN
@@Juwonee Dito te sa Pinas. Balik ka na raw. Miss ka na namin kahit di mo kami miss. Hahahaha Anyways ingat always dyan!
Instant fan here. Amazed at your trilingual fluency. Swabeng swabe ang code switching. 😁 And your personal experience of straddling two cultures is fascinating. Looking forward to more interesting content on your channel.
Lol
I like her Pinoy na Pinoy, Ang cute 🥰
We miss you here in the Philippines. I hope you come to visit here once again. Goodluck and God bless to you and your family.
Staying here in the Philippines for more than a decade can really change someone no matter where that person came from. Particularly, gaining the experience and knowledge of two different cultures.
Your Taglog is sooo good omg
Juwonee and Kristypata my ultimate Fil-Korean woman - nice nd not pretentious. Maganda too !
"asaan ang asin" 🤣🤣
truueeee
so who are you saying is pretentious
Fil-Korean? they are pure Koreans though
@@donronron1806 I would say she's culturally Filipina. I grew up eating Filipino food (and was born there and am pure Filipino) as she grew up eating Korean food, but I'm culturally American 'cuz I grew up in the US. Because I was an immigrant, I label myself Filipino-American as opposed to just plain American.
Who's pretentious? Hmmm..
I’m a FilAm. I just find you so cute transitioning from one language to the other and then you make Tagalog comments na I know only true Filipinos know. So cute!😆👍🏻
Hi,i really like your content.just curious,Are U still coming back to the philippines?I thank U for appreciating the filipino culture.U have a pusong pinoy
Thank you po! I’m defs going back to PH at some point 🤗
@@Juwonee thank U for replying back.HonestIy I wasn’t expecting U to reply that fast.knowing U have alot of people commenting on your video.I appreciate the time for reading and replying back.thank U so much.stay safe always
@@michaeldiaz1509 she will definitely going back to marrying me
@@Juwonee if you're going back dito sa pinas, pls wag mo sanayin yung sarili mo na nagiiwan ng valuables sa table, alam mo naman dito hahaha
Ang cuuute! 💛💛💛
You forgot to mention that in Korea you cannot find someone with a "Good Morning towel" in his head
I really like your humor. It never fails! 😄
Dito sa Pinas nabibilang lang ung mga honest na tao, ung kayang ibalik or sauli Ang napulot na wallet or Phone.
Ako noong high school Ako naka pulot Ako ng Pera pero sinauli ko sa may Ari tapos noong college Ako nahulog ko ung wallet ko na may Pera walang nagsauli sa akin, pang tuition ko pa Naman ung noon. .kaya sana maging honest din lahat sana Ang mga tao Dito sa Pinas..
She did really made an effort to read for this relevant topic and share it to us who wanted to know (more) about the Korean culture and differentiate or relate it with ours. Salamat 🙏
Dude, I experienced the same thing when I tried KFC (and McDonald's) as well sa Vietnam, Malaysia, Thailand and Singapore. Each country had their own specialty food that my cousins and I tried for the sake of trying them kahit na some of them we didn't like to eat talaga. Hope to see more of your videos soon!
That’s true!! It’s interesting to identify the differences also
@@Juwonee other than salt not present sa fries, what are other stuff unique in Korean fast food as compared to Philippines?
This is what my facebook friends tell me as well.. Pupunta ka ng x country tapos kakain ka lang sa McDo?? then i reply to them na "duuude, iba iba mcdo sa ibat ibat lugar gusto ko lang subukan kahit 1x lang"" HAHAHA
I left the Philippines when there was an influx of Koreans moving into Manila. And now seeing how they integrated so much, especially with how we communicate, I find it refreshing. I love it :)
good evening to u Juwonee watching from the Philippines.. I'm so happy to see u again .. i miss u also your new video 🥰🥰🥰 💝❤🩹💙💜🤎💯 u
Great video.....thanks for sharing and looking forward to more!
new subs here, enjoyed watching your content, keep it coming😊keep safe🫶🏻
@9:18 Nakahilatag? WOW your tagalog is deeper than mine. Born and raised in the Philippines and now residing in USA. Hi. 😀
Me naman when I had a one-month vacation in my home country, the Philippines, after living in South Korea for about 2 years:
Hindi na sanay sumakay ng jeep. Iniisip ko noon eh baka kasi sa loob ng 2 years na wala ako, hindi na pwedeng sumakay sa nakasanayan kong sakayan, baka hindi na pwedeng magbaba ng pasahero kung saan-saan, etc.
Pero I regained my hometown-self after a week... So basically, I'm already at that fifth stage of culture shock na "Oh! I forgot it's like here"... Yun lang...
Trivia lang po. Nung mga 70s, 80s, and 90, yung mga taga-South na pumupunta ng Maynila ay biglang hindi na marunong mag-salita ng kani-kanilang sarilang salita kapag umuwi. Kasi daw nasanay na raw sa accent. Pero kapag nasaktan ayun bumabalik naman sa dati 😅🤣
So cool seeing a korean that's so fluent in Taglish and familiar with Filipino culture. I wish I could stay in the Phil for as long as it takes to integrate into the society like that. Alas, I have to make money to keep my Pilipino fam afloat and save enough money to keep going back to the Phil from the US.
tawang-tawa ako when she said "yung mga Koreans" teh! di ka ba Korean? HAHA but yeah I do agree ASAN ANG ASIN??? there are only two flavors here in Korea, spicy and bland. Well, the chips are a bit sweet, even the Cheetoes, nakakaloka. haha
Natawa ako sa sabi niya na "Yung mga koreans" hahaha cute thanks Juwonee for adapting Filipino Culture. I am very interested to go to Korea as well and experience the culture.
It was funny to hear a Korean refer to other Koreans “mga Koreans”. So cool. ❤❤😂😂
😭😭
Wow I do not know what drew me to your youtube channel but I am fascinated by your personality and how you view things having been raised in Philippines. Speaking Tagalog, English and Korean. It's interesting that you have no sign of a tan having lived in the Philippines all those years. You look to almost have near perfect skin. Your one of a kind and very fascinating. I will be watching more because I believe you could educate me quite a lot on culture differences.
Juwonee!!!! I lab you!!!
HAY SAWAKAS NAG UPLOAD NARIN SYA LOVE YOU JUWONEE
Very informative. Para kang student pa rin na nagrereport sa isang klase.. hehehe.. And you're right. Napagdaanan ko rin yung mga stages na yan. At naexcite akong mareverse culture shock pag balik ko ng pinas. Good luck sa mga next videos mo.
Missing you Juwonee 😍❤️❤️
..finally,, so glad to see you again..
Yung tungkol sa spam, nanonood ako ng Korean cooking show dito sa YT and may narinig akong tip sa kaniya na hugasan daw ang ham bago iluto para mabawasan yung alat, so baka ganon din ginagawa nila sa mga restos para lesser saltiness.
Pagpapaalam part, yes (both me and my sis both mid and late 30s still update our parents if we have arrived or where we are especially pag nasa labas pa kami tapos pamidnight na hahahaha)
Tapos yung sa dry air, baka kaya mostly ng mga musicians use humidifier para sa voice nila. I remember si Kang Gary ng running man noon used a wet towel, draped it on his bed frame while sleeping para daw moist yung air at kailangan alagaan yung boses niya.
Ang sarap pakinggan ng tagalog niyo po hehe
Happy Lunar New Year 🎉
Sa sobrang tuwa ko sayo napa subs na ako. You look 100 percent Korean pero napaka fluent mo sa Tagalog. Mind blowing. Hahahah keep it up sa vlogging journey dito sa YT. 😉

Just dropping by to say you’re super cool😎
Finally! Nag upload ka na ulit ❤
You are soooo cuuuuteeeeee!!!!
My 1st comment is that you are beautiful really 😍, very good to hear that you speak Tagalog fluently and have a nice perception of where you lived for so long , nothing/nowhere is perfect anyway , thank you thank you for coming here in the Philippines hope you enjoyed your stay. I laughed when you said that the 4 seasons is in the juice hahahaha coz we have only 2 - dry and wet(summer and rainy) and you said Salt in your fries hahahaha...Good luck to your new endeavor
Waiting for part 2 😁
Your english is so pinoy. Accent is so neutral. Love it. Your tagalog as well is perfect. God bless!
Her English is spoken with a Philippine city accent, as opposed to the majority of the ones working in the US who did not grow up there who speak with a province accent.
A new fan here 😊
