Are Seoul South Korea Neighborhoods The MOST Convenient In The World? 

I love the neighborhood in Seoul! Everything is so conveniently located! This is another aspect of Korean society I love. The convenience is on another level!

Love watching your vlogs, me and my husband came to Korea in April, stayed in Jongno 6 area in a Airbnb, it's was fabulous, everything is so close ,we didn't have to walk very far to anything, we love Korea , and if we where younger we would definitely think about living in Korea.x

I live in Seoul, too. In the building I live, there is a nail salon, hair salon, rock climbing center, a bowling alley,convenience store, pilates instructor's office,pool, gym, sauna, coffee shop, dry cleaners, orthepedic surgeon' s office , another for traditional medicine, another for internal medicine and all hospitals have beds. There is a drugstore, online supermarket office ( you can not shop there but they will deliver it to your home within 15minutes if you order online) , an auditorium for performances that can be rented for events,a real estate office, even a soothsayers office. There are offices of small businesses within the buidling as well, so some people work and live here. ( for example there is the local health and national pension office here, the headquarters of a furniture company and many more)Of course there is a cafe and at least 5 restaurants. The nicest thing is that as they are all accessible via elevator, you can order food, dry cleaning services without deliver charges. Of course, there are plumbers and electricians on hold . Their services are included in the rent. There are doormen who take and keep parcels for you. There is a police station just across the street on one side and a stream and dog park to jog in just across the street on another side.We just had a dance festival there a few hours ago. There is a subway station with 2 lines a 3 minute walk away. There are 3 bus stops on three sides of the building. There are tons of shops outside . Yes, Seoul is dense as fuck but this means its convenient.

I like your respectful attitude about Korea in general. Thank you!

You are showing the place where I was born 63 years ago. I have now been living in Europe for 38 years. Watching your video makes me feel like a tourist. Thank you!"

I miss living in Korea.

I like how detailed you described the neighborhood, such a nice one you live in. Thank you!

Thank you for showing us your neighborhood and sharing all the conveniences. This video further solidified my desire to move to Korea by 2026. I don't know how just yet, but God will show me the way. Also, thank you for always being kind, compassionate, respectful, and thoughtful in your videos. I pray for your continued success and happiness.

I'm an American currently living in Seoul. Its so much safer and more convenient. Living here I lost 6 kilos in 6 months and my heartburn/acid reflux issues disappeared like magic... I could imagine myself living here long term after I finish 한국어 school.

a great tour, thanks. I like it. looks like a great mix of authentic independat places yet so close to the more build up modern areas. best of both worlds so it seems . I must look up your old videos to find out your story about how you eneded up in Korea. I am hooked and fascinated by it. Just because it is so so different to Europe. And I really like the sound of KOrean language. I always watch korean shows/movies in korean with subtitles even if they are available in english. The language is beutiful. I am 51 so do not think I woudl be learning it but every now and then, I attempt to learn a word or two.... One thing that puzzles me about korean culture is that beuty focus. It seems superficial and somewhat shallow how much people judge and comment on their looks as if they prioritise it above anything else. Coudl you talk a littel about that? I think, it is amazing that people generally look very well presented , hair cuts, clothes. I like that. and I use lots of KOrean cosmetics so i do consume that beuty standard lol. Still, it seems to be a little too emphaised maybe?

as a Korean, hearing things I took for granted explained like this makes me feel a renewed sense of gratitude for my daily life. thanks for the wonderful video 🫶

Such a compact neighborhood and yet quiet. If this was in America, it would be so loud and bustling with people and cars because it would be a plaza.

I’m not sure if Seoul is the most convenient, but it’s definitely one of them.

좋은 동네예요. 모든 종류의 가게들이 다 있고 사람들도 많이 걸어 다녀서 인간적이고 안전한 동네인 것 같아요. 항상 건강하시고 행복하게 지내시길 바랍니다. 사랑하고 응원해요.

발음이 너무 좋으셔서 영어듣기 연습되고 좋네요. 감사합니다.

진짜 한국은 영상에서 보는것처럼 모든 지역 동네가 저렇게 생겼음 ㅋㅋ 집주변에 다있어서 다른 지역으로 이동할 필요가 없음ㅋㅋ 이것보다 더 한국 스러운 영상은 없을듯 ㅋㅋㅋ

Your explanation through your calm and relaxing voice is exceptional. Thanks for the video.

와...생각해보니까 서울에만 지하철 역이 700군데 정도인데 역마다 먹자골목에 편의시설 다 있다고 보면되네요. 역상권 살짝 벗어나면 또 대단지 아파트 있어서 거기에서도 역과 같은 대규모의 편의시설이 있다고 보면되요, 지금도 역이 계속해서 거미줄 처럼 개통되는중...근데 웃기게도 역마다 뭔가 비슷하면서도 느껴지는 풍경이 가지각색 전부 특징이 있어요, 나도 인천, 서울 40년 넘게살아봤지만 안가본 역이 600군데 넘는것 같아요 ㅠㅠ

방금 날씨가 너무 더워서 ㅡㅡ 무인 편의점에서 아이스크림 잔뜩 구매하고 집에와서 아이스크림 하나 입에물고 유튜브 켰더니 ㅋㅋ 이 영상이 뜨네요

한국을 사랑해 주셔서 감사합니다 행님 서울에서 평생 살았는데도 이상하게 재밌네요. 😅

Hey, Congratulations on reaching 12,000 subscribers! I've been enjoying your videos of Mongolia, the Philippines, and Japan. I hope you're having a great time living in Korea.

Show your viewers and others the starfield in Suwon. That mall is a whole another level, don't forget on B1/B2 level is Traders like costco to see.

Every neighborhood is self sufficient with every shop you need along with exercising park/mountain/hill lol ~

korean don't take anything expensive, but I take a bicycle or an umbrella because I put the value on 'convenience'. In Korea, not everyone is perfectly moral too. Expensive items do not steal because they suffer a great deal of damage compared to the monetary value they earn. In the case of bicycles and umbrellas, they occur frequently because they can have the value to relieve the 'inconvenience' that I need right away and because they are not expensive, the damage that comes back to me is not significant.

Great video man! Keep it up!

I love when ur post vids everyday

The more Korea becomes "multi-cultural" the more the things everyone takes for granted like unattended stores, kids walking alone, items on display outside businesses will erode away. Just saying.

I live next to Pyeongtaek University. Love Korea so much

your bike is my bike.

Along the 15 past years. Korea has been boomed up the premium bicycles riding almost over USD 10,000~30,000 dollars value of them but light weight, some thieves target it and sell them again second hand market suddenly. :( however almost they were captured through CCTV trace by police after he already sold it and they spent money though. :d My cheap bicycle is always there in front of my main door though. :D

채널 주인장이 인상이 좋으시네 ㅋ

😊

자전거... 훔처가는게 없다 보니 자전거 도난이 유독 부각 되는거 같은데 여러 도시와 비교해 보면 자전거 도난도 압도 적으로 낮다.... 즉 다른걸 도난 당하지 않으니 그나마 도난 당하는 자전거가 부각 되는거 고로 한국인이 자전거에 ㅁㅊ있는게 아님 ㅋㅋㅋ

bro is finally blowing up. good video man i wish i could just walk my neighborhood. i could a bit in the last place i lived but not like this lol

지금 지어지는 아파트는 지하는 주차장 지상은 공원화 함...아파트 단지가 너무커서...운동포기자들이 많지만..딱 기분좋게 땀 흘릴정도임... 케바케이니...운동 하셔요!

CCTV가 그렇게나 많았구나. 대부분의 평범한 한국인은 CCTV가 있건 없건 도둑질은 생각하지도 않습니다. CCTV가 많아서 치안이 절도가 안 일어나는 것이 아닙니다. 한국은 CCTV가 적은 지역이나 별로 없던 시절에도 상점 밖에 물건을 진열하였고 가정집 대문도 닫지 않고 지냈습니다.

동네구경 : ) 좋네요 !

I just subscribed your channel, and thank you for your real life experiences based compliments about living in Korea. Of course, there is no perfect society or country on earth but Korea is still trying to make herself livable place for everyone!! Many lucks and good things may happen to you!! God bless you! 👍🙏

When you buy a ready made box like that how many servings are inside? I can't believe how well Seoul is planned. My parents travel almost an hour for a Korean dentist or hairstylist.

Your pronunciation in Korean is amazing 😊

Amazing, you can read Korean letters. 행복한 하루 되세요. 영상 재밌게 봤어요.

👍;;

100 years ago, most houses in Korea had their doors open. As industrialization and urbanization progressed in the 1970s, much has changed in today's Korea.

And you got a spitter at the end. 😂😂😂

Korea welcomes tourists but it does not want to be a UN country. We are a small country. We don’t want our country to become UK, France , Detroit, San Francisco and other cities with its abundant crime. PLEASE look to South Africa or South America where I hear they are booming culturally

If it werent for crime most of the US cities would be so great to live in. But i like how many mom and pop businesses there are.

'무지' 낯익은 곳이네요. 마주치면 인사 드릴게요...~~😃

We don't understand the bicycle theft problem either. hahaha :)

If you return to mongolia i would becreally happy too meet you

Korea does everything better ❤

영등포 this is one of shabby towns of Seoul❤

오~ 영등포 사시는군요! 전 한국 사람인데, 다른 동네 보는것도 재밌네요. HaHaHa~~~ 😅

형님이 사시는 동네 구경 재미있게 잘봤습니다. ㅋㅋㅋㅋ 서울의 주거지역이 다 비슷비슷한것같아요 ! 요즘은 서울도 오래된 주택단지들을 허물고 아파트를 짓는것 같아요! 한국에서 행복하고 즐겁게 생활하셔서 기분이 좋습니다.😁😁

Apart from 영등포 I couldn't figure out what other neighborhoods were in this video. Where did you walk to?

it's real life in seoul😊

Woah, first off... This video popped off! What did you do differently... I think maybe the POV stuff!? Well done!

Not true that they can’t have the same self serving store in the US. Because we do have the stores in the US.

It looks very peaceful. ❤ Thank you for the video 😊

우산도 자전거도 이젠 훔치지않아요.

신길동!영등포역 뒤에 푸르지오 아파트옆이네!

주거 비용이 비싼 지역은 지하철 역이 있는 구간입니다. 편리성 때문 지하철 역이 있는 구간에는 모든것이 있어요 그래서 한국인들은 지하철 역 까지 걸어서 가는 5분 이내 거리, 10분 정도 거리를 선호 합니다. 물론 주거 비용이 비싸기도 합니다 비용을 아끼고 걷기 좋아한다면 조금 멀리 떨어진곳을 추천 합니다, 😊

🤣🤣 한국은 정말 훔쳐가지 않아용~ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ

Stealing bikes is universal, but I don’t get why people steal flower pots and plants 😂. I live in Canada, but I would love to live in spring and fall Korea.

The crime rate has increased seriously in Korea as Chinese people began to be eligible for permanent residency. Everywhere in the world, the Chinese are in trouble

Yes, we have tons of cctvs and super efficient police😢 if you steal something you will be arrested less then 5 days even if it was just $1.

우리가 서로를 배려하고 훔치지 않으면 싸울일이 없다. 그 간단한 것을 유럽은 왜 못하지?

전쟁시 한국의 아파트는 벙커가 됩니다.. 대전차 무기. 대공 무기로 다가오는 적들을,, 하나씩 ㅎㅎ

한국은 어느동네에 살아도 똑같아요ㅎㅎ 없는게 없어요 오히려 너무많아서 탈이지..

Dude watermelons are 5000 get one quick!

자전거를 도난하는 사람들 주로 청소년,외국인노동자,중국인. 우리나라 청소년들 스케쥴 바빠서 남의 자전거 타고가다 버리고감. 절대 다시안탐. 얘들아 ! 제발 제자리에 돌려놔라.

한국인이세요? ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ 노트북, 핸드폰같은 비싼건 안훔치지만, 자전거와 우산은 자주 없어진다니... 이거 완전 사실입니다 ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ

두 딸을 키운 엄마로서 아이 혼자 다니는 영상 넘 찍지 않으셨으면 합니다 엄마인 저는 아이가 집으로 올 때까지 항상 맘을 졸여야 했던 경험을 가지고 있어요 아무리 한국이 안전하다 해도 학교 마치면 전화, 학원 가면 전화, 돌아올 때 전화, 주말에 어디 가는지 등등 동선은 늘 연락하며 지냈습니다 사건 사고는 예고하고 발생하는 건 아니니깐요 전세계에서 보는 영상인 만큼 혼자다니는 미성년자는 가급적이면 찍지 말아주시기를 부탁드립니다

지금껏 cctv의식하고 산적이없는데 그노무 cctv타령 지겹네;;cctv의식하고 사는곳은 공산국가다.

Repent of your sins because the Kingdom of Heaven is at hand. Jesus the Son of God died for our sins to save us, and He will come back to judge us, according to what we have done. 1 Corinthians 15:3-4 I passed on to you what I received, which is of the greatest importance: that Christ died for our sins, as written in the Scriptures; that he was buried and that he was raised to life three days later, as written in the Scriptures;

I'm Korean and have lived here in Seoul whole my life. And I haven't noticed that I've taken this convenience for granted snice I watched this video. Ohhh that's why I traveled a lot to get to any happening places when I was abroad. 저는 평생을 서울에서 살아 온 한국 사람입니다. 그래서 이 편리함을 당연하게 여겼다는 것을 이 비디오를 보기 전까진 깨닫지 못했습니다. 아, 그래서 외국에서는 핫스팟에 가기 위해 많은 이동을 해야 했던 거군요.

That's all about cctv if you cover it with your friend's body. Koreans know that, but no one is abusing it. 🤣🤣🤣

30년전까지만 해도 절도가 많았다 그당시는 배가고팠던 시절이라서 자전거뿐 아니라 모든거 다손을됬다ᆢ 소매치기도 많았고ᆢ 그때는 현금을 들고 다니든 시절이라 오늘날 남의 물건을 손을 안되는 이유는 시민의식이라기 보다 경제가 그만큼부유해 지다보니 굳이 절도를 할 필요성을 못느끼는 것이지ᆢ지나갔던 시절 역사라고 하지만 사실대로 말해야 한다

I would never live in Korea period due to the sewer smell and thr air quality. I tried 3 times but had to leave back to thr syates. But some likes it there for their own reasons. Jist not for me.

For foreigners, especially westerners; you may encounter very ‘Korean’ society and culture even though it has been pretty westernized. You may feel disrespect, impoliteness and indifferent which are considered very normal to Koreans😂. Plz throw away your fantasies from K dramas and K pops when it comes to residing awhile. ps. breads and flour based meals and snacks are really really expensive in Korea so better brace for impact, if you are bread person, for sure.

흡연충들만 없으몀완벽한데😊

Actually this area is not a good place for a living in Seoul. It is very famous for poverty. It has been represented one of slums for decades.

자전거 도난율도 많이 낮습니다 한국인중 일부와 외국인일부. 한국. 까고싶은 애덜이 만들어낸 얘기일분이죠

뭔 개솔이냐 한국이니까 당연히 훔친다는 소리는 뭐냐 어느 나라든 도둑은 존재한다 그렇지만 한국은 카메라가 없어도 정상적인 사람들이라면 남의 물건을 훔치지 않는다 우리집이 도로변인데 세벽배송 등 수 많은 배송을 받았어도 20년 동안 아직 물건 잃어 버린 적이 없다 cctv 이야기를 자꾸 하는데 cctv 보급 대수는 중공 유럽쪽이 서울보다 더 많다 순위로 봐로 서울은 세계40위권이다
