I'm back with a shopping video! This time I'm showing you my top 10 picks of what to buy in Korea. Honestly I can't stop myself from buying everything I see when I go to Korea, it's difficult to hold back :P I'll try to upload more regularly from now on, things have been hectic in the past couple of months because of work/sickness/errands, but I have SO MANY videos planned. Stayed tuned for Korea Haul, Japanese spring must-haves and Uniqlo top 10 videos coming up soon!
I would like to see how's the experience of going through the checkout. How do cashiers treat their customers??? Is it polite, friendly??? Do they make small talk with their customers, anything like that????
I love your channel and especially videos like this. You do such a fantastic job here. Thanks for adding the text on the screen to inform me that you've got a Korean shopping haul video available too. I bet I've already watched it and forgotten but I'm still going to go to your channel home page to check it out. Brilliant stuff, so much fun. Love to see what people buy and what they recommend. Also, I really appreciate insiders travel tips and recommendations/things to avoid or not bother with. 😊👍
Very well done! As I'm trying to reduce plastic, but I'll go to Korea in May, it will probably difficult to not buy things which are wrapped in plastic. Anyway nice video, especially the face masks make a great present i think :)
Ohhh~ Those are great recommendations, and also, thanks for including the prices in the description. Anyway, is that morning rice drink at the background? Haha
Wow never knew the existence of the cute hair curlers😍 I want them!😭 Sorry, I didn't catch the location to find that item..I wonder where I could find them if I'm there.
Love the informative video as always :) Just wondering, for the hair tools, is the voltage fixed? If I remember correctly, Korea voltage is higher than North America & Japan.
The ones I bought are fixed but you can find USB powered ones too. Also it doesn't need high wattage so a relatively small and cheap transformer will do - they were just so freaking adorable and unique, I felt it was worth the hassle. Also if you live in the US, some US apartments or hotels actually have 220v plugs
Hi, I have a trip book to Seoul and planning to get some watercolor brands from South Korea do you have any recommendation for cheap/affordable stores where I can buy art supplies?
My hair was bleached so many times so it basically does its own thing regardless of what color I dye it lol but if you are interested, this is the one I used: tinyurl.com/yddl93br
Yeah most phone cases fit iPhone models and Samsung ones due to those being the most used among Koreans, but you can find some generic phone cases which can stretch to fit different models
I'm sorry to be negative but is it a good idea to travel to Korea and spend your time and money on a country that treats women and animals like garbage? Just wondering if it's a good idea to promote tourism there with so many issues in that country....
Each country has its issues, while Korea certainly isn't perfect, there are many other countries that have way more serious problems than S. Korea. I'm also not "promoting" anything, just trying to be helpful to anybody who already has plans to visit
Dilesh Perera yeah thats my thoughts as well when i planned on visiting Dubai and spend money and time there. But the thing is im gay and gay people are persecuted in Dubai, they literally kill or jail you if you are gaying there. Really sad but i love dubai. Its a shopping heaven, you can buy more than any countries and golds are cheap😍
I tried the " Argan Rain shampoo" and after just one wash my hair is soft to the touch with some body and shine. My hair also tangles easily, especially at the roots and ends, and after using the argan rain shampoo I can actually run my fingers right through my hair from roots to tips. The smell is also very light and pleasant. I work out everyday and while I don't sweat a river, I need to wash my hair with something that won't dry it out and this shampoo will be perfect for that
The name of the products are in the description box, that brand is Ryo ( I know this answer is very late) A hahaha but oh well I hope you got a chance to buy this brand because its really nice
Great video! I just came back from Seoul Korea - OMG so so many mask places! I actually came home with over 100 masks for gifts....a crazy place to visit but also so so awesome for shopping.
Hello yuyu! I will travel to Korea for the first time in next month! and Im really excited about it >_< But I wanna ask where can I buy modern casual hanbok in cheaper price?? and what is the average price range for modern hanbok? Thanks!
I think generally it's about $100USD per outfit (that's what I paid for a couple of years ago, so maybe it's more or less expensive now). I'm not sure if you can find anything cheaper because of the material and it's kind of a trendy thing to buy these days, especially among younger generation. Check Ssamzigil mall, I bought mine there at a popup shop but otherwise you can probably find around Insadong in general and near Hanok village area
Great advice! But, c'mon, bottles of SHAMPOO??? I shudder to think of the GRAMS they'll add to my restricted luggage weight in Economy class! No, thanks.
Awesome! If you need help with planning, check out my Seoul travel videos from a while back and I'll be posting a Busan travel tip video in the future :D
