🇰🇷When Ollie Meets the Korean Textbook Author... 

lol🤣

lmao

😂😂😂

ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ I had so much fun though.

Me in math class

Ikr 💯

😂 Is this a serious statement or a joke to his years of learning

ㅋㅋㅋㅋ

Ikr

I'm wheezing

Dude I have always thought the same, but hopefully not

Yesss😂

I'm pretty sure his struggle is a bit played up at this point. There's no way he didn't understand the difference between 좋다 and 좋아하다 at this point. Though I'm sure he does struggle a lot still...I know I do.

Yeah that's exactly what i was about to comment

he doesnt take it seriously at all, its always fooling around and making jokes, its definitely for entertainment purposes.

Hey army! Ollie seemed to really like neck meat 😂😂😂

당연하지! 목살이 너무 맜있어요!!

And always in the same context 😂 I just remembered that app they tried out where he spoke to native speakers...

Neck Slice!!!!

Du lmagdl when he asked if the girl was shoulder meat 🤣

i loved that.

Sanmina Nguyen same 😂😂😂😂😂😂

ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ

Hyunwoo is me every single day of my life

Best way to start a video 😂😂😂

Haha 😂hopefully sooner 😉

xDD

savage

I'm just imagining watching that video when he's 71, I'll be like 58 or something (I suck at math so idk, I'm 17 in june if I'm way off with that)

I think Ollie might need a little more time lol

Agree 100%! I already thought korean was a beautiful language but watching Ollie learn it made me want to learn more to keep up with the lessons and the jokes. Thanks for the inspiration guys! And congrats Ollie, you're doing great while showing us how much fun it can be to learn a new language!

100%!

truth! he's kept me motivated for 2 years now

It's helping me to learn it as well

@@isamarascheid7333 What I found fascinating and motivating is that Ollie genuinely gets embarrased but goes through it nevertheless, he is persistant personified. He really puts himself out there, and that's something anyone learning any language should aspired to.

You still drinking water?

@@theasiangecko 🤣🤣🤣

@@theasiangecko legend has it that he's still drinking water

It's actually Hyunwoo's second appearance ;) ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-zOLX-4HE4EE.html

Dieter Verschueren :00 thank you for notifying

His puns and comebacks are savage 😂 I can't help but to love 'em, especially that smooth one " you came from one" 💀 dieded

Next video: HYUNWOO I HATE ALL THESE BOOKS

Unknown's96 Hannover!!

Sherbet Wine the “lifer”

Burnnnn 😂😂

I am so happy he made this point. The strength of a teacher is to be able to help the students who are really struggling, instead of expecting them to be perfect on the first try. Josh treats Ollie more as a parent (with judgement and disappointment) rather than as a teacher (with compassion).

Alik i love how you put it that way!

Alik did you get the names mixed up or...?

I've only seen videos of Hyunwoo teaching a lesson and being very professional, so hearing him roasting Ollie and Josh in this video is hilarious! XD

@@al11196 Disappointed parent?! That's a bit harsh (and depressing when you imagine an image of a disappointed parent). Isn't it more like a more knowledgeable guy teaching his best friend and teasing him along the way? There were many times when Josh smiled like a proud father after all when Ollie gets its right, and more often than not, he just makes fun of Ollie's face and sounds when he stumbles as they study. The way Josh reacts is like how close friends would react when one of them makes a mistake: laugh and tease them about it before moving on and helping them out/correcting them. I will agree though that Josh is not really like a professional teacher. He's more lenient and indulgent compared to a teacher; sure, teacher's are compassionate, but they wouldn't let their student make several jokes in succession nor encourage them while they're studying. And when your student admits they forgot to practice or study, as a teacher, you'd refrain to be as blunt or show your disappointment as obviously as Josh would. Rather than a teacher, Josh is really more like a friend helping their own friend to study. But as an audience of Jolly's channel, I wouldn't really like it if their study videos lose their comedic aspect.

Maybe it's just the way the videos are edited, but I agree.

I mean Josh is generally very supportive, but I will say he seems to learn better when he’s with someone who is more serious like Gabie for example, he learned a lot from her in short lessons bc she walked him through it more than Josh normally does

yes i dont think any of the teachers have been very patient. but I think Ollie also mucks around and goes off on tangents for the laughs. if the cameras were off the lesson might look very different, or it might not, I don't know. But the teacher inside me just wants to teach him myself. except I don't speak Korean 😅

I don't think you should project your own feelings onto Ollie. He chooses to make these videos, he's the one who wanted to learn this way, and these videos are clearly for entertainment purposes. Ollie obviously has a lot of self confidence for him to decide to learn this way, and he obviously enjoys mucking around. Sure, he might learn faster with someone serious, but that wouldn't be as fun for us to watch and clearly, that's not what Ollie wants or he would have just done that.

Affection comes in different forms. Tough love is common in asian culture so when u mock ur frens its done out of love. Not all the time but it depends on the relationship the people have with each other and their open mindedness

Didn't they meet when Rev Chris went to the dance class in Korea? I know Hyunwoo was or is a bboy.

Here you go you're 666number likes:).

@@themangaman2605 haha thanks ^^

​@@PT111111 I don't know, but compared to Josh's usual reactions, his (playfull) incisiveness towards Ollie was surprising considering how he fits the "teacher" persona in my mind ^^

Ann Otherme no probs :).

SAME

Yah, me too. I can already imagine how comical it is going to be. (although I'm sure it won't live up to the real thing. 😂😂)

@@lainelleraine98 just this thumbnail alone is iconic

@@Jasmijnsemi 101% Agree with you

same

I concur~!

the idea of roasting a struggling Korean language learner is counterproductive to what he's promoting

@Danny Natividad this is all just jokes, its not that serious.

😂😂

OMGGWWHWJSHSJJSHSHSHSHHS

ohh hii i watch your videos xD

Min holly 😂

@@moonnoom-og hahahahaha

Just cutting Josh out of the equation entirely

Sahlo Folina Me too! I love the audio lessons and he’s so funny. Weird seeing him in person.

@@janey6921 You never watched his videos?

Where did you hear these lessons?

@@user-tl9dr8rv6x on their website, on itunes, on soundcloud (not sure)

Yes i learned talk to me in korean from spotify podcast

What does “ovum” mean???

Haylee Mae like a egg from a ovary

😂

@@backuppukcab7518 egg cells are in the uterus not the vagina

I.. I dont understand, :(

What language if i may ask?

same

The same here, I'm trying hard to improve my English and also start to learn Korean, but sometimes isn't that easy. Like when I can't see improving is so frustrated, for sure that I will remember these words when I think again in give up

Estefani Barbosa aah same! i like to think that my English is good but whenever i see someone speaking more fluent than me, i would put a lot of pressure on myself to improve it. same thing with my german, i would get frustated if i can understand the words but not being able to speak/form a sentence. at least we're still eager to learn though ☺️ good luck!

Me too but its my fifth language

Low key can confirm 😂

Yup

*SOBONGJA*

Definitely 😂

He has a fantastic sense of humor!

Also in the Ollie alone in korea episode where he was in a museum

I do not speak korean, but I am trying to very slowly. Correct me if I'm wrong but you included the words korean, ollie, and really. I have barely started learning.

Yaz you’re right

Yaz Yeah that is all i understood as well lol, i can read the hangul but i don’t know what the rest of the words mean

BakingBacon it means it would be fascinating and surprising if ollie becomes fluent in Korean m. Thanks for having interest in our language I hope the best result for you.

이준성 Oh ok 감사합니다

맞아요. 제 경우는 이번에 처음으로 토익스피킹 시험을 치고자 공부하는데 미국이랑 다른나라랑 다른 차이점도 신경써야하고.. 단지 책에 쓰여진 몇 줄을 읽는 것 뿐인데도 강세 발음 억양이 난리부르스... 한국어는 굴리는 발음이 딱히 없는 것 같은데 영어는 rl pf 등등 발음에따라 전혀 다른 단어가 되어버려 어려워요ㅠ 학원 선생님이 먼저읽고 학생인 제가 따라읽어도 너무 다른...ㅠ 초등학생때부터 공부했지만 늘 쉽지않네요

Can you explain this joke to me?

Anisha Srikar he was supposed to say English Man in Korean which is 한국 남자 but instead he said 한국 난자 which is English Ovum (egg cell) 😐 so basically that’s a hashtag now and he’s famous for being English egg cell 😂😂😂 #영국난자

Lexicon 95 agjfhflb that’s hilarious thank you

I'VE BEEN SEARCHING FOR THIS COMMENT

@@lexicon9599 it's 영국 not 한국

This is a great advice! I will try that, thank you! :)

난자 means, egg cell 남자 means, man

He also looks like tablo?

He makes his lessons fun on Talk to me in Korean too, at least to me, but I like dry sarcastic humor xD

Oh my gosh you should listen to the TTMIK podcast!! He is one of the two leads and he cracks me up at LEAST once every episode hahahahah

Samantha Irving I should really watch that podcast then.

Hyunwoo Sun is very sharp, very dry and, I think, brilliant. He also seems like a genuinely good guy.

Turned into Mario lol

Vic what’s the name of the book?

@@sofiasantamaria7861 I've used a lot of Talk To Me In Korean (TTMIK) books, but the ones I use the most are the textbooks. They come simply in Levels, with Level 1 being the beginner book. I think the textbook Ollie is using now is the Level 2 textbook. Other great TTMIK books are 'My First 500 Korean Words', 'Easy Korean Reading for Beginners' and 'The Korean Verb Guides'. I don't work for TTMIK, I'm just a student here in the UK but I've used all of the above books and would recommend them to anyone who wants to learn Korean!
