North Korean Women Touched by Loving American Dads 

My Korean husband was very hands on and affectionate with our twin boys, so much so that they can still remember the fun and loving things he did with them, even though he died before they were in kindergarten.

American black woman here. Even though i didn’t grow up with my father, he still managed to keep in contact with me and always let me know i was his child, how special i am and how much he loves me. I’m an adult and he still does all those things. He will randomly call me, visit me while at my job (i live 3hrs from him now), will send a text to me to just say hi and to know how i’m doing, etc. I do the same for him. He does more as well. He does all of this because he knows how important a father is to their children as well a mother is. He’s even help raise children who aren’t his because those children had no father figure to look up to and to go to. I can go on and on about my father, but this comment will be as long as a textbook if i do. All i have to say is that i am very blessed and fortunate that i was born to a father like mine.

When I was a toddler my father saved me from drowning…twice… within an hour. I can still remember it and I’m 57. We were pool side. I was in my bathing suit and I told him I could swim. He was from Cuba and could swim very well. I dove into the water and he pulled me out because at 3 I really had no idea how to swim. He laughed it off then told my to change to some regular clothes. Came back and ended up in the pool again. So he fished me out a second time. I miss him very much.

My dad used to roll with me down big hills and wrestle in the living room. Good times.

My father was an example of how not to be a dad. So when I had my own son, who's going to be 5 this year, he's been my whole world since I saw the first sonogram. I really don't understand how anyone could have a kid and willingly ignore them or leave them or anything like that. I'm actually retired so I have way more time than most people to spend raising my kid and spending time with him, but it's not like it's ever boring or I could ever even get tired of him. He's my top priority and I really don't understand how all kids aren't always their parents highest priority. Taking care of, teaching, etc your kid is basically you're entire function on this planet...so how could anyone not do that?

My parents equally shared the parenting and housework. They both worked full time, but since my dad had the car he had a shorter commute, and usually walked me to the bus stop and picked me up from afterschool. My mom would take me to things on the weekend. He taught me how to ride a bike, and we'd go on bike rides together often. He also taught me how to cook, and we would cook together almost all the time until I moved out. Now I visit once a week, and we always show each other the funny things we have seen since we have the same sense of humor. He is a lovely, gentle man.

My dad had a temper and could blow up at any moment. However, having said that, he could also be a big goof, especially when we were really young. One of my favorite memories was what we called "park in the dark". Dad would come home from work during the summer, and after dinner, he'd take us to the park and play tag and capture the flag with us until after dark.

I'm always grateful for my daddy. I'm in my 30s now, but I was their first child and growing up, every day he got off work, picked me up, and we went off to just spend the afternoon together. He was the one who wanted kids (my mom was 'if it happens it happens' about kids) and when my mother was pregnant with me he would tell everybody he could that he was going to have a baby soon, and when I came, he took me EVERYWHERE with him. When I was 10, my mom had twins and he quit work to be a stay-at-home father to look after us all. And when I was 13 they had their last baby and he looked after 4 kids alone for a few years before they swapped places and he started working again and my mom stayed home with the kids. Not many people get as lucky with their father the way we did with Daddy, so I'm always grateful. My mom's father died when she was 18 years old. I'm grateful I'm in my 30s and my daddy is still around.

The thing about dads playing rough with their children is so true. I dont remember playing with my mom, but my dad would sack me in a blanket and carry me around the house. I would sit on his back and he would "buck" around like a "bull". He would even lift me up so i could cling to the top of his punching bag and swing/sway when he worked out. Some core memories i just remembered.

The dad wearing the shirt and tie and lying on the couch still impresses me. He is not even looking towards the kid about to fall head first off the couch. He still instantly catches her. At an awkward angle with another kid sitting on him, too. Yet the mother is sitting up, looking right towards the kid and still fails to react before he does.

please have these two awesome ladies on more! they are excellent and a joy to watch how they react.

I remember my dad, he tried to act gruff (he was a softie), he'd take me out to tea and coffee shops, pick up a book or newspaper for himself, and he and I would quietly read for hours together. Then when he'd finish he'd quirk a smile at me, tease me and jokingly try to steal my hot-chocolate or tea, then laugh before taking me home to watch movies. He was always there despite having not gotten custody of me in the divorce, always made himself available no matter what. I also remember him reading old French tales like those of Roland (a popular French tale) though he wasn't fond of Greek mythology he nurtured my interest in it, encouraged me to get into Norse mythology, fantasy fiction and history, especially where it was related to French history (we're French). He was never comfortable with physical affection (he had his reasons) but he never shied from hugs, from a hand on the shoulder and from letting me know he adored me. I still remember him always telling me, I'd be his son and that we may be father and son, but we were also best friends. Heck I remember stuff going back to being 3 years old, him taking me to the movies, and reading stories. Sorry rambled, though it has been 14 years since he passed, still remember everything he did. Love him to this day, so that in a lot of ways my 'fantasy/mythology yt channel' is as much a love letter to that genre of fiction as it is to him. So glad to see so many other dads in this comment section were wondrous, dunno how my French-Canuck dad measures up in some peoples' opinion but in my view he was the greatest man who ever lived.

Watching this made me felt in tears🥲 where I really missed adventuring with my dad. Now I'm 19 and I really miss those days.

As someone who died have a father growing up I'm gonna do my best as a father and be there for my kids

it breaks my heart knowing that so many girls grew up with a dad that wasn't their best friend until the trivial age of 12

I’m American. My dad is very A type. Business man. But I remember being little and always pretending to be “asleep” on the couch so he would carry me up to bed and tuck me in. I don’t have many memories of being super little but I do remember that.

omg the girl on the right her skin is AMAZING

All good dads should love and care for their children no matter where they are.

They look amazing.

Children should be cherished and given guidance but never broken!

Nara and Sanghie, lovely and honest, intelligent reactions.

Nara is a beautiful girl with a big heart, she deserved better.

My father was my best friend until he passed a few years ago. I miss him every day as both.

"North Korean Women Touched by Loving American Dads" ( ͡~ ͜ʖ ͡°)

All North Korean fathers should see this video. They need to know that caring for their children like mothers do, doesn't make them less of a man, it makes them more of a father.

as an american who had a superdad i can say they're real. my dad would find dead trees still standing in the woods and push them over. i was amazed i thought he was the strongest man on earth. little did i know they were hollow and light lol.

Love the video

Lmaoooo no way she thought little man was a sweet comedy about a dad trying to raise his troublesome son

for my daughter ill give her the world.

3:38 that’s the Hayes Family Vlog!

We dads have a saying: My son is my son till he takes a wife. But my daughter is my daughter all her life.

the girl in the pink just full on believing marlon wayans was a baby 😭😭

Enjoyed. Thanks.😍

I'm a dad, and I only wish I could play more with my kids

it's funny that they thought in little man that Marlon was a kid 🤣

my dad has such a sweet spot for me its insane, he loves my hobbies and I do cosplay, he loves video games so he bought me a residence evil cosplay😭😻

Wow, hearing that girl say that his father is helping more at home because now he has more estrogen made me think about how far behind they are in social matters. Those types of comments were more common in the 50s when women were still totally submitted.

lovely ladies.. best wishes. Thanks for the video

Meanwhile my American father doesn't care about me and is abusive towards me, my siblings, and mom. I wish I had a caring and cool father. I'll do my best to be that for my kids in the future

All dads love their children. I have 2 daughters. Regardless of culture or temperament, all fathers wish to protect, nurture and push our children to be the best they are meant to be. This isn’t cultural. It’s universal. Any man who doesn’t get to be a father to his children is broken. Either it by his choices or not. All men want to be a father. What else is better to exist for? Nothing.

ahh women from not around here. bless them

I believe it is up to a father to show boys how to be a good man and daughters what a good man looks and act a like so ahe can look for those signs in a husband.

not what I expected, but still good

I love these videos. We are all the same

Un abrazo gigante para Ustedes Amigas De Corea del Norte De Chile Con Amores fraternales para Ustedes Amigas

This may just be me but these two seem to have a Very Abrasive view on a fathers Roll in the family. Its seems because their dads were always working in their lives to pay for their Food and Place to live he wasn't able to be involved in their lives while he was Constantly paying for them to life.

seems that although so many of these north koreans were raised without affection they'll instantly end that cycle by raising their own children with affection+find a man with those qualities

Next, they should react to American Teenagers.

That's it. I've been searching for love in the wrong country.

My dad once pushed me off a log I was balancing on so he could shoot a rattlesnake that was waiting at the end.

Late 2023, I miss this opinion. We just want to be good men and wonderful fathers. If you just let us be ..

I was not fortunate to have a kind father my dad was the worst he was narcissistic and controlling and just a jerk so all of us here in America don't get to have such good dad's as the ones in these videos

I could tell a foreigner made the video they reacted to. Understanding that America is not a homogenous country is a completely foreign concept.

Great video 👍 👍

It's nice to see Women appreciate Dad's. Here in America, Dad's have always been portrayed as Lazy and Dumb. My Dad taught me about life and how to fix things.

"It is internationally understood that men are less capable of taking care of children". Yet when thw aren't in the home lore children end up in jail or addiction and when single mothers and fathers are compared the results of single fathers on the jailed individual is significantly less. I always ask one question when women say this...."you mean women are better when they have a man to provide them income and a full work day to stay at home and parent and then that same man to dump the kids on when they get home? cause your certainly not talking about single mothers being exceptionally better."

My father wasn’t very hands on or affectionate. Very rare to find a parent who so affectionate in the black community it’s kinda “ learn to be by yourself. Or handle things yourself. Or defend yourself because of the color of your skin. You need to be tough because of the racism we face and prejudices. And for black women teaching them to fend for themselves because a man won’t stay with a black women or treat right tbh. They just use us and leave us for a white girl or a light skin or A Mexican.

Can I ask how you say hello in Korean? I want to learn the word in every language, but by asking a native speaker

People talk about mother instinct often but never about father instinct which is having a 8. Sin to foresee danger and save babies as if its nothing to them. Two dad where even passed out on bed and couch and still they catched the baby. XD

RANDOMLY FOUND THIS IN MY RECOMMENDATION WHY just WHYYY why my mind is so dirty the title the FUCKING TITLE OF THE VID

The way most Americans think is it takes both parents equally to raise a child. My responsibility as a father is to teach my daughter what a good man is and how a man should treat her so when she gets older she knows the signs of a good, honest and loving man. As for my twin boys it is my duty to teach them what it takes to be a man in both bravely and honor. No matter what my wife does if the above isn’t accomplished then I will have failed in my most important job, Daddy! Obviously we have a lot of fun too, probably too much since I still act like a kid🤣

they uh they grew up rich in north korea huh (like relative to other people there).

That’s funny

👍❤

One of the closest to death moments in my life was when we were eating at a restaurant and I choked on some roast beef as a little kid. First time it ever happened. I remember getting up and just gasping/gagging looking around for someone to help me but nothing. My 2 brothers just pointed at me yelling "Hes chocking! Hes chocking!". I grabbed some water and tried to drink it and that just made it worse as water just overflew my mouth making the gagging worse. I really thought I was going to die as I looked around the restaurant just wanting anyone to come help - by this time every person in the restaurant is looking at me but doing nothing. I remember looking at all these different well to do sunday dressed families hoping one adult would come by to do something, but only stares. At the time my dad was in the restroom (no mom), and suddenly I felt someone lift me up giving me the heimlich and after a few tries the meat somehow went down. Dad saved me that day and no lie every time I eat any steak I remember chocking and really eat carefully haha. Now one of my greatest fear is being somewhere alone and chocking on something lol. Another time after this I did end up chocking again on yet again this time a steak while eating dinner at home. Once dad noticed he slapped me on the back a few times real good and it went down. He scolded me a lot for eating to fast and said to be careful for a good decade. :/ chocking really sucks, but I'm glad it happened when my dad was around.

howd they get a north korean native

my wife left i had 2 boys at the time diapers their 25 now colledge ed. and doing well

My dad tried to off me 💀

This title lol

This young woman have no idea when you're a dad and you have a daughter that's a princess not our daughter.

Interesting title…

Can't stand when women do actually say the whole reason you don't leave kid with dad mentally, if anything from what I've always seen dad's are more creative and overall more fun with kids than women are. Don't believe me search any video compilations showing parents playing with the kids and you tell me what parent comes up with more fun and creative ideas involving kids, you will see the majority being men as they also play better with kids as they aren't afraid to be childish themselves.

Some of these comments are 100% the biggest liars ever! No one talks about how mothers keep the children away from the father on purpose because the father moved on with his life and still want to be in de kids life! In the meantime the mother is talking crap about the father! Dont believe all of them ladies!

Eyyo this video title kinda mad

Americans don't know how to take a compliment 🙄 as you can see in the comments. It's really tragic 😥

My son is in the Air Force and wants to be stationed long term to Korea, I can absolutely see him marrying a Korean woman. And he'd be damned lucky to do so.

If you watch in english(dont know if you can)at some point. Watch some videos on usa society from a mans perspective on marriage,divorce, and kids.🙂

Definitely not true that fathers can't take care of their children like mothers.

While not all American fathers are like this, I was lucky enough to have an amazing dad. I was adopted from foster care as a baby, and he was one of my favorite people. He died last June at age 91. I’m 48, and it wasn’t enough time with him.

Nationality and culture aside, it makes me sad to think that there are boys and girls right now that don't have parents that show them love and affection, that don't play with them or get down on their level. I have two daughters and we make sure we have time to play together every day. To pretend, to laugh, to tickle and wrestle, to sing songs, to draw pictures, to read and make up stories.

Not all American fathers are this good with their children but many are , it is sweet to see the ones who really love their children , I pray that north and South Korea someday can be one

It would be a kick to see them react to my dad. Doing everything for me by himself from the time I was a baby. Being my 24 hour cook, driver, caregiver, and playmate. He never let me near the stove even as a teenager. Wouldn't let me near the washing machine so he always did my laundry. Tried to teach me how to shave my legs and how to use "sanitary napkins" when I got older. He was strict! But only to a point. He was like a grandfatherly pet dog who follows the baby of the family around everywhere to watch over her. Patient, quiet, gentle, and nurturing. But playful and silly! He fought for me and never gave me a chance to feel unloved in this world.

I’m kinda jealous of these kids for having such loving dads, and parents in general. Wasn’t really shown any affection or even attention, growing up, aside from my grandpa and my cat. My parents and sisters didn’t really want to waste any effort or time emotionally connecting with someone who wasn’t likely to survive past the age of 15, due to me being really sickly, which from a logical perspective I can kinda understand. Doesn’t make it suck any less, but like I said, at least I had my grandpa and my cat. I miss them both. My grandpa wasn’t related to me by blood, but we were still best friends. We used to get into trouble when he’d sneak me out of my room to go fishing and stuff, lol. He also served in Vietnam in the army, and basically ruined regular coffee for me. I was always his favorite, and despite not being blood related, I inherited his dog tags. I have them hanging by my front door so I can always feel like he’s there to see me off.

My husband is a very loving and involved father. Our daughter is an adult now and lives 200 miles away. She came to visit for a couple of days and just went back home today. As soon as she left, my husband hugged me and started crying saying, "I miss our baby so much!"

This beings back memories. I lives in Illinois and my dad was very hands on, his idea was, she might do it when I'm not watching, so I better teach her to do it right. He caught me climbing the ladder on the new swing set when I was 10 months, but instead of yanking me off, he just held my bottom while I slowly made my way up. He also taught me to climb the slide by taking my shoes and socks off so I could get a better grip.

I’m from america and can’t imagine having such a loving dad growing up. Mine gave me and my mom and brothers PTSD from abuse

That is SO true. These ladies know their stuff. Being close with dad often means the difference between success in life and struggle in life.

Just for the records, it's a universal MYTH that Mothers take better care of their children than Fathers do. I raised my kids by myself, even before my divorce. I was the one who came home from work, coached their youth sports (football, wrestling for the boys and cheerleading and basketball for my daughters). I fed them, bathed them, helped them with their homework and sang them to sleep. I eventually ran out of patience for my wife to get into the whole family thing.. and won custody of all four of my kids...and they actually told the judge they preferred me over their Mom. So...not MYTHS are true.

One memory of my dad--when I was around 4 or 5 he let me draw on his feet with a felt-tipped pen. I'd draw little faces on his toes.

A story my parents told me, that When I was I think just barely one year old, my grandfather (may he rest in peace) was holding me and he apparently tripped and fell, he fell on his side and managed to hold me up simultaneously but unfortunately broke his hip. Goes to show how much dads and even dads of dads will go to protect family in the best of cases.

I remember The Hayes Family! I hope they are all doing well...

That title should probably be renamed to heart warmed instead of "touched" 😂😂😭

Why do Korean women have deeper voices than their female neighbours? Don't get me wrong I'm not criticizing. I find it much more appealing than some of the childish squeaky ones in their region.

I searched for this video title on the wrong website apparently.

Sanghee is very pretty. I don't know the official name, but I call them half moon eyes... very attractive.

Can we talk about how we all just watched a man jump off his roof for the Spider-Man stunt 🤣

Title is misleading. I did not hear a "Good morning USA!"

These women are so beautiful ☺️😉🙈👍🏼🇺🇸

Unfortunately more then a half a century or so ago. A government check took the place of the American Dad. And too many were willing to go along with that !

The US is huge and super-diverse, so it is very hard to make generalizations about the society as a whole. That said if you look at news papers and magazines that have been published for 100+ years, you can compare how the content of the articles change over time. In the late 1940s early 1950s American men who pushed a baby carriage, carried their baby on walks, cooked food or showed too much affection in public towards their kids(even tears of joy) were seen as "weird" or "not masculine" in various magazines/news papers. With-in 10-20 years those same articles changed, now saying fathers who did those actions were "masculine" and good men. At this time Second-wave Feminism was questioning women's role in society compared to men. If women can work outside the home, why can't men do some of the family work at home, such as looking after the kids, preparing meals etc... Fathers being able to show emotions towards their kids is one of best things to happen for men that came out of the women's rights movement.
