Hi there! This vlog is amaaaazing!!! Thank you for sharing. May I ask around what time did you ride the Blue Line capsule right in time for that beautiful sunset? We were just worried we might depart further earlier than the scheduled 6PM sunset. Would it be better to ride the 5-:5:30PM slot or 5:30PM-6PM slot? Really need help huhuh. Thank you!
Hi, I know it's been some years, but I am a freshman planning to apply for Korean summer 2024 and was wondering whenever the time comes would you be able to review my essays for me?
Hello, I'm Korean broadcasting Busan dociumentary production team. I'm asking if this video will be available as a documentary material screen. I'm looking forward to hearing good news from you. Thank you!
just so everyone knows, 1. its really hard to get placed in Seoul, and 2. there is like 1 in 50 chance your apartment will look like this i got placed in the countryside (like 10 minutes away from Daejeon, so not awful honestly), and my place doesnt look ANYTHING like this. whats more, ive seen other EPIK teachers places, not just my province, ive seen teachers who are placed in big cities as well. most people will have a villa style, not an apartment complex like this. (i got lucky with this actually and got an apartment complex, but from talking to other teachers, even this is rare.) I've just been seeing all these "korea apartment tours" on youtube and i have to wonder if the only people who post are the ones who got lucky with housing lol. I'm at school rn actually, so i had to watch without sound, so idk if this person got the housing stipend and picked their own place (which if you don't alreadly live here, you cant choose this option.), but that's sort of the only guaranteed way to not get fucked over lmao
i didn't pick my own place i just got lucky with housing haha but yes i mentioned my place was bigger than most (with a much higher utility bill as well rip) & for that i was v grateful!! idk if its just seoul but most of the people i talked to also lived in officetels/apartment complexes though :o
I had two friends who had an offictel style apartment in Daejeon. One had a loft and the other one didn’t but it was still modern and had the shower. And the girl in the video already said that the native teacher found this apartment and took the stiped instead
I am still in college but I am working towards becoming an English teacher in South Korea. I am nervous about when I get to do EPIK but seeing this video makes me less nervous and more excited
Hi, quick question for you. In your orientation, were there any older teachers, or were most of the people mid-thirties and younger? (I've watched a few EPIK orientation videos and have only seen young people.) Thanks, and I hope that you're enjoying your time in Korea!
Hello !! I hope you are doing well ! :D I had a question, your friends in the video, did you know them before moving to Korea or did you meet them there or through Epik?
Hi Nha! I'm applying for the EPIK program and I've really enjoyed watching your videos to help me through the process and they've made me hopeful for a fun reality once I arrive! You seem super lucky with your apartment situation, could you tell me the dimensions as a reference?
This is the "Elizabeth" the person who left the comment about study abroad programs and anti-Asian hate crimes. I think my previous comment may have been unclear. Nsily is Not one of the programs that puts people of color in dangerous situations. I am so sorry for the original comment with the wrong information and I am so sorry for not fixing the comment until now. Stop Asian Hate and Stop AAPI Hate.

Ahhh this video has made me way less nervous for my epic orientation next week! The demo is stressing me out a little and wondered how long the demo is for? Thank you for this and hope you've enjoyed your time in Seoul!
hey!! this is hella late but i was wondering the usual age range that ppl were when you went, not sure if it’s the same but it would b a good idea to know
You have a lot of rice and egg🙆I'm from South Africa and rice usually goes with a curry you know😅I don't know, from what I'm seeing the food combination isn't the same😅 I guess I would have to adjust since I wanna apply as well. Thanks for the video sis
Great vlog! I was wondering did you guys watch the movie with a Korean dub or were there any English screenings? And do you have any cafes you'd recommend that have really good coffee? Thank you!
it's in english with korean dubs! also, ngl i only drink sweet drinks so i'm not the best judger of coffee :( i personally liked "you want some?" in sinchon for their coconut coffee & cheongsudang in ikseondong (a lot of other locations too) for their vibe LOL
YOO i'm visiting busan soon and your vlog just made me x10000 times more excited hehe! Thanks for linking all the places and I just wanted to ask WHAT CAMERA ARE YOU USING (why is your footage so damn clear sheesh)
