working in Seoul vlog ☕️ being a business owner in Korea is confusing, cute cafes & trendy shops 

The series idea sounds really good Sissel! Would love to hear other people's stories and how they live in Korea, how they feel about it, struggles, things they love etc. It would be nice to do that with some of your friends too 🥰

Loved the vlog as usual 💛 I think the idea of covering other people’s stories with your usual cinematic and healing style would be really refreshing. I remember that I consumed soooooo much content from different creators in Korea before I moved here (& still do). But sometimes now I feel like I get so bogged down in just the living and surviving in Korea that I forget to look at the beautiful and exciting parts of this experience more closely. I learn every day, especially online, that although us foreigners in Korea are inexplicably bonded over some very similar experiences (both unbelievably wonderful and sometimes ridiculously frustrating), we’re all also living very different lives. There’s so much to learn and take from other people’s experiences, so much to be inspired by and ways to learn to grow. Ultimately, we’re all here trying to create the best lives for ourselves in Korea. I personally gain a lot from seeing the way other people are living and sharing my experiences too!

Thank you for the inspiration Sissel 🥰 I've been following you for a few years now and yesterday, I just posted my first vlog in Seoul! I've been very scared of posting on youtube but thanks to you and other inspiring youtubers, I got over the fear and posted! 🥳 Thank you again for the weekly inspiration ✨

Sissel I love your ability to create such aesthetic and calm videos - they've very theraputic and I always look forward to watching them! As a foreigner living in Asia I totally sympathise with your frustration of certain technologies or banking processes. It certainly tests your patience! Love your idea about the series, particularly if there was a coaching/mindset aspect to it. I'm not sure if it's something you'd want to share, but it would also be cool to see your creative process when filming/editing content. I really love the vibe you're able to create and it would be interesting to see your thought process while creating. ❤

I appreciate your idea of the new series! Although I like your videos, your experiences and social circle in Korea are so different to mine when I lived there as an office-job intern and later as a PhD student. It sometimes feels like we lived in two different countries 😅

I love the series idea! I want to live there and traveling there has been 70% because of your channel so just being able to learn more is amazing!

Love, love, love your idea!!! More than anything I love the idea of seeing other people’s lives in Korea with your video filming skills and aesthetics 😊 Can’t wait!

I’m watching your video for a first time and you’re so positive and comfortable!! Honestly, I have been learning English for 2 years and now I’m trying to develop my skills. Your videos are really helpful and useful for me) I’m also learning Korean in my college and I’m planing to become an exchanged student and go to Korea!! And you gave me a motivation to study harder and more productive)

it's lovely to see you at ease, with sometimes awkwardly honest facial expressions, it makes everything more real and beautiful!Thank u

Thanks for this vlog! I really love these glances into what your normal day to day work actually looks like!!

I just love how real you were in this video 🧡 and that you are showing more of you and your own beautiful colour 🥰 (so to say in a korean way 🙊) just go for the series! Once a month seems like a good start and see where it will lead you ❤️

Absolutely love the new series idea!

Hey Sissel, thanks so much for the vlog - loved it, as always. Your idea about a new series sounds great, particularly if it potentially could involve some life coaching as I find that fascinating and would enjoy seeing you in action, as it were…Sending love and hugs from South Africa 🇿🇦 🤗💜

I think that is a very good idea which you had with Jake. That kinda format would be very interesting. I think its good to see other parts of Korea as well, and other life styles.👍👍

I really like your new idea!! Looking forward to seeing more of your filming & editing skills as well through that

Hi Sissel! I want to say that I love your vlogs, they always encourage me a lot. I think your idea for new types of videos is super interesting! I think there are a lot of aspects from living in Korea as I foreigner that people really don't know or want to accept because they kinda romantize the country without thinking the challenges foreigners really have to go through.

I love your new video idea! I'd find it really interesting to see different people's perspectives of living in Korea, and through that perspectives on life/growing in a new place as well, and I think your vlog and personal style (mix of doing things + deeper chats too) would be a perfect setting for it. A coaching or personal development element would be lovely as well 💚 if you decide to do it I'd love to volunteer to be a subject haha 🥰

Good morning, Sissel! Happy Wednesday and welcome to the first day on the eleven month of November!😊😎☀💙💙💙💙💙💙🇺🇸🍂🌷🇰🇷💚💚💚💚💚💚🍂🎇👍. Your vlogs are so beautiful and wonderful like a magic wand that spins around and make a smile on your face. WOW!!😍😍😍😍😍😍👍

I love the idea of the new serie! I’m watching your blogs for few years now and to be honest, you’re one of the very few RU-vidrs that I don’t get bored of. They’re inspiring, aesthetic, funny, real, and more! But the idea of meeting new people, spending time with them and getting to know them, as well as, sharing experiences of their side living in Korea would be something very interesting and educating. I feel like many people still look at Korea through pink glasses and kdramas. That might be also a way of break the bubbles and spare people some disappointment later on if they plan to visit or move to Korea. Besides that, loved the vlog, and I might not get around taxes in Korea yet, but I understand struggle of fighting with Korean websites… Wish you the best!

love your videos smm as always and i started reading acotar because of your recommendation now i am almost done with the third book!!! this series has made me go crazy ITS TOO GOOD and i need a rhys in my life !!!

This is an awesome idea, i think sharing stories and experience is great because this will allow not only for you to meet and experience another humanbeing's narrative but your audience can also be involved.in this process . This would be great, watching your videos is something I find really enjoyable as the clips I see in these videos are different to the clips I see in my daily life. So there is so much to learn from other peoples perspectives of life. Thanks again for these cool videos and i hope you stay healthy and well. I'm really out here typing alot for a comment, but its okay its my form of reflection ahahah.

I love watching your videos while working, they are so soothing and I also can relate on the frustration 😅 We are soon visiting Seoul, can't wait to visit all the cafes and shops there, thanks for sharing all those cool places 🥰

such a lovely video

I love your vlogs so much. It so soothing. Kind of feels like a hug from a friend❤ Regarding the series I’m pretty sure we would all watch anything you release 😂😂❤❤

I love the idea of showing the life of other people!! 😍It could be so enriching as a creator, as people and as viewer☺, I could definitely see them.

Love the series idea! I live in a smaller city in Korea and it’s definitely a bit different than the vlogs I watch from people living in Seoul. I’d love to see other foreigners’ perspective of living in Korea (and participate myself if the opportunity arises and I find the courage hahah!!) Side note, Koreans have the same reaction to me when I tell them I love 청국장 ㅎㅎㅎ every time my school serves it for lunch my coworkers are shocked watching me eat it… even though they’ve definitely seen me eat it before lol. The smell is definitely a bit overwhelming but the taste is just *chefs kiss* Have a great day Sissel

I was in Seoul for the last 2 weeks and returned last friday! I‘m so sad and miss everything 😭 felt better now to see your video ❤

I like that idea! I'd also like something like a speaking/ learning Korean journey!

Definitely would love to see the series’idea❤❤❤

I say YES to your new idea & it will be super interesting to watch, plus I'd love to see another side to your filmmaking skills

Hi Sissel I love your idea of the series!! Another idea that many of us would love would be a map of your favourite places and recommendations as a summary for visitors to Korea or in general who already live in Korea! That would be very handy and more time-saving for travelling/getting to know directly other areas. Love you and I love your vlogs!!! Big hugs from Germany! :*

I already love your vlogs now, but the series idea is so cute and beautiful at the same time💚 I really love how you treat your fans!! I almost feel like you are not just a youtuber, but more a real friend, but then online❤️‍🩹

hoping for book content from sissel 🥰 keeping my fingers crossed 💛

can I say that today, in this video, you are absolutely charming, with a light tan and a light mood. I really want to wish you all the best🌷

Kaiti Yoo does a similar series on her channel so I think it would be super interesting to have the concept in Seoul! You should really move forward with that series Idea!

Hey Sissel! I think this is my first time putting a comment on a RU-vid video. I really wanted to tell you that I think is great that you want to challenge yourself and try doing new things on your channel. I really like it the way it is now (love the cafe recommendations), but I think this new series of other people's stories will be very interesting. Keep up the good work! Thank you!! :D

I struggle as a foreigner with the bank here in France such a pain especially when it is with your money! I think your idea sounds so great, would love to see other points of view. It kind of reminds me of the creator Paolo from Tokyo, who follows people in Japan around and shows a day in their life.

This sounds so much fun! I live in Daegu been here for two years and it is completely different from life in Seoul! I would love to hear other people’s perspectives and experiences 🤍🤍🤍🤍

The series idea sounds really cool, I would love to see more cinematic and documentary-typed videos on your channel :) thanks for all the aesthetic content and all the cool places you introduce us to in your videos

11:54 woaah that's such a sweet idea!!! this meal kit looks freakin good, someday I'll be able to try it too haha

It would be so nice to see other people’s side of the story in Korea. You should definitely do it! 🎉 And you should definitely tell us where your green and black leather jackets are from cause they are the bomb 💚🖤

I think this series idea sounds great. It would be very interesting to see Korea from different points of view. I hope to move to Korea sometime soon so I am watching a lot of content about life there atm.

I love your idea! One of the things I think I'd want to know is where the best spots to stay in Air BnB like the pros and cons of them too. I think it would be good to know for someone wanting to travel there and I've loved when you've shared places that you have stayed in. Just a thought!

Hey Sissel, hope you got the domain issue sorted. A heads up, although a domain shows as expired it will enter a “redemption period” for 60 days meaning you will still have time to claim it but typically costs more money. Good luck! Welcome back home 💚

so i had this book in my bookshelf, court of roses and thorns, but never read it.. now that u recommended it, i tried it and now i really cant put my book down 😂❤❤❤

love watching your vlogs🫶🏽 makes me feel like im there again :)

I feel you so much Sissel! I have recently moved to Canada myself and man, creating your business & understanding how the tax system works is soooo confusing & frustrating as a foreigner, these things are much simpler in Europe! I'm sorry to hear you're going through the same thing, but that's why we foreigners are such resilient & patient ppl I guess 🥰 P.S: The series idea sounds great and not stupid at all btw! It would be nice if the name was coffee related as well and you could do something like a coffee talk with the person at the end?

veryyyy good idea, can't wait to see that !

Love the new concept... I hope that it's balanced with what people find positive and negative about Korea... RU-vid and social media is so curated for the positive and aesthetic, and I really feel if you are going to be the observer of someone else I hope that it's not all pretty and perfect all the time. Just my humble opinion 💚

Hey, Dear Beautiful Sissel ^^, I liked your new idea of a series a loooottt! I also, live in Seoul as a Master's student. Maybe later, I will get the courage to meet you and collaborate to be a part of the amazing series^^ I love how you are comfortable and make the viewers feel comfortable and cozy. 잘 하고 있습니당! :)

omg ILOOOVVEEE THAT VIDEO IDEA !!! it would be so interesting to see other peoples lives and how they experience korea and you'd be the perfect person to hold that space for them xx (I'd apply but i gotta move to korea first hahaha)

씨슬, 홈택스에 빡쳐하는 표정이 너무 웃겨욬ㅋㅋㅋㅋ 저는 사업자가 아니라 잘 모르겠지만 자국에서도 처리하기 어려운 문제들을 해쳐나가고 있다는게 그래도 대단해요! 화이팅!

the series idea is a very pretty idea I loved it , I wish Im in korea so i can be with you in one of your vlogs , but why not maybe oneday in the future i would come to korea and see you.

Just chance upon yr channel.....u look pretty amazing n beautiful. Love to watch what u post...recommend new plcs eg cafe n plcs with cute kitchen appliances or stationery etc. It's good idea to share with others abt life journey living in korea....the good the bad n the ugly side of Korea. Pls recommend good books to read cos I am book lover too....ebook or audiobook n physical book as well.

Omg I would love to see you and Moya Mawhinney in a video together! Two of my fav RU-vidrs in the same video ❤❤

enjoying your business-lifestyle in Korea vlog! ❤❤

This is so motivated

hi, I just finished the very same book :D

So so calming. Where did you get your glasses? ❤

Depends on what the ppl are doing - i mean i would be interested in an architects life for example, coorporate girlies job is not my thing on the other hand.. (no hate) ❤

I loved the idea would show different perspectives of living in korea. Also I HEAR that is hard for foreign ito get access to bank information. Hope u are well and happy

This video was such an amazing vlog, and i loved your idea. i hope you go through with it! Also, if you dont mind me asking! What font do you use for your captions? I would love to use it in a future project. It's so pretty and simple

Yay another vlog

You look beautiful as usual, but this vlog is extra -shows that even a calm person can feel and get frustrated with the system, I liked the way you handled it. And the idea to get closer to your audience is awesome if I were in Korea I would love to have met you for sure.

HII! Im a new subscriber and i also do travel vlogs :) I love how aesthetic and calm your videos are! 😊

The ending 😂❤👃

I love the idea, I wish I was in Korea!!!!!

Hello Sissel!! I have been following you since 2019, big fan of your work and thank you so much for inspiring me every week with your amazing vlogs

Dear Sissel, this idea you express here is actually so good and amazing, what about doing it on a different channel? Best of wishes on this new proyect, hugs from Bogota City

Hey Sissel, really enjoyed this Vlog as always and loving your series idea especially as someone who doesn’t live in Seoul but love things all Seoul and Korea in general, would be good to see different aspects of peoples lives and the concept itself is different to what we have already seen. I’d say go for it !!! 😂❤ Also, if you don’t mind me asking. What tripod are you using with your iPhone to record the tiktok ? Xx

I commented already but had some extra thoughts, sorry :') if you do go ahead with your video idea would love to see perspectives of people outside of Seoul or another big city. I feel like people's view of Korea is really big city focused; also selfishly I would love some reccs/ideas of what others do when they live 'outside' haha. Also, not sure how feasible it is, but people of different backgrounds, older people, different jobs (like corporate, or service jobs) would be really interesting! Sorry just throwing some random thoughts out there as I do love your idea🙃

It must have felt like inception filming yourself filming yourself for tik tok for youtube LOL appreciate the transparency and BTS of your work

where is your leather jacket from?🥰

the idea sounds suuuper cool!!

What is the lipstick you're wearing on the first part of the video?🤩 It looks amazing omg

Also i think it'd be a great idea to make a video on money management and budgeting as a 25yr old, since i look up to you as an independent woman , moreover it could help many young girls be conscious of money.

you have amazing skin - are you using korean skin brands ?

THOSE GLASSES AND YOU 🤝

I think(my personal opinion you don’t have to do it if it doesn’t benefit you) you should start changing the content you post cos you have 700k+ subscribers and max views you get is 50k it should be around a million views for that much subscribers personally I’ve subscribed to your channel cos your makeup videos and soul room tours. Cafe vlogs aren’t that interesting to watch I do really enjoy you talking and explaining things about everything it’s entertaining and educating thanks for reading such a long comment 😅

Hi do you still have your skincare line?

Hey sissel! ❤Jeg beundre jeg 😂 du har et liv hvor du er selvstændig, du har gjort dig selvstændig som kvinde... og jeg ville ønske jeg gjorde noget i den stil da jeg var i din alder ❤😊

not the acotar series hahhaha but same

Ohh where is the green top with thumbholes from?

you could do a training for foreigners who want to open a business in Korea

Not jake complaining about the smell lol. In regard to wat content that would be interesting is ur life as a coach. I'm not familiar to this coach title of urs and im intruiged about it? :D

6:07 I hate when things like website domain goes wrong

🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉 Very nice Very Good Very Very Good Very Very Very good work You tube channel All the best ❤ VERY GOOD VERY best

Sissel, what's your spotify?

Wait why was that shop closing 😭

You know you've been in Korea for a long time when you use your sofa to rest your back, instead of actually sitting on it.😊

how's the lip stick business going?

What year were you born?

목도리가 영어로 뭔질모르겠네……목도리 어디서 사셨어요?????^^^^😅

확실히 한국 컴퓨터환경이 맥쓰기 좋지는 않죠

Hej! Som dansker vil jeg bare spørge, hvis du er ok med at dele det self. - hvor meget får du fra youtube, og betaler du dansk eller koreansk skat? Hvad gør du med pension? Og hvor lang tid tog det dig at blive monetized? Jeg er selv lige begyndt at lave vlogs fra min tur til Sydkorea og Japan og drømmer lidt om at leve som dig en dag. Føler mig meget deprimeret i mit 9-5 job lige nu 😓

Yes, have every day normal people. Not models, actresses or business owners. People who came and had to find work and a place to live. You have too fancy of circle of friends.

동감해요. IT강국인데도 공공분야 웹사이트 서비스들은 후진적이고 쓰레기에 가까운것이 현실이죠.😮😢...공무원들이 각성해야~~

한국인이지만 세금처리관련해선 특히 홈택스 정말짜증나요 게다가 은행은 분명 여러갠데 이름만 다를뿐 다 똑같아요

going to work with you while at work, best energy to relax🤍
