π : JUNGNA DISTRICT, SEOUL (7.4/10)
I wasn’t expecting to be bullied and then stalking by some pizza creeps on my first day back in Seoul, but hey ho. Back filming the Let’s Gu series, I headed to the very east side of the city to catch the old areas on film before they’re all destroyed. I met a lovely gardener who disagreed with the high rise way of life, sold meat at a butchers and shared my pizza with two creepy boys in a park. #Seoul #SouthKorea

𦧠WHO AM I?
Dan. Sooner or later i’m gonna be a corpse in the ground, worms eating my body and my atoms will disassemble and move off to finds new uses elsewhere in the universe, probably to create a turd. Why take things so serious, why work a job you hate, why listen to people telling you to do things you don’t want to do, life’s too short for any of that foo foo. I create exploration videos in the hopes of inspiring others to travel and see planet earth. Waterfalls, Aurora Borealis, Curry, Pyramids, Lions, Live Music & Laughter. How Bout That?

welcome back!
The guy that offeres cigarette looked shady like he was trying to rob you or drug and rob you or something
Loved this video. Your Korean gets better and better.
Pizza toppings
Onions,anchovies
This as always was fantastic content
Dan,, glad to see you back in Korea. I finally made it here. Been here 50 days and loving it. First time back since 1987! Lot has changed, yet some things the same. Sad to see the high rises taking over. I went back to my old Army base, K-16 outside Songnam. The base was totally new, nothing i recognized, not surprised. I went across to the Korean viliage of Oya-dong, where i lived for 2 years, NOTHING was familiar. The rice paddies in front were replaced with shops. The mom and pop shops replaced with high rise apartments. Only thing same was the road! I told my friend back in the states, I couldnt find his brick house , the villiage is GONE. He said what do you mean its gone? I said , its like it was swept off the map. Nothing i recognized. Talk about progress. Pizza School. Its the closest Pizza place to my apt. I been there twice. Pepperoni is good. But, they have quite the menu of toppings. They love to put Corn as a topping!
yep completely agree with you on the modern urbanization. its so souless, tacky and boring.
that was a weird encounter lol
This video and your hitch hiking to Tokyo video are my favorites so far
Beavis and Butt-head knew each other, when you asked one if the other guy was his friend and he said no that was a lie. They both were creeping and advancing on you, casing you to see how easy it would be to rob you or maybe make you their girlfriend who knows just get up keep the conversation light and get out of there.
Pelicans?? Those are cranes, you silly goose!
You, kind sir, have the best first name.I,as a Daniel, can relate. We're your parents catholic? Just curious
21:40 that guy looks a little tipsy.
Those guys at the end, are probably homeless or nearly so. Homeless don't look like utter ghouls in Asia. You had two slices when you met them, you should have given them each a slice. You're a foreigner with money, you could always buy more for yourself later if you were still peckish.
Dan you probably won't see this but I'm in Bucheon-si on a H1 visa your videos taught me a lot about Korea I'm also from the UK would love to meet you one day!
You can say 'Go Ma Wo Yo' to say thank you to people older than you. How do communities get demolished? They have legal rights. That is a really silly idea. Every city in Korea has an old area and a new area. Maybe you don't like apartments but if you owned a 100m square apartment you might feel a bit more positive.
Welcome back to Seoul. I live in a new apartment complex development. It's very nice. It lacks character, but that is what Koreans want and those old neighborhoods will disappear, but many new cool neighborhoods will pop up I predict.
You have the crown for talkingvthe most shi* π
They actually believed you
Would love to see you collab w igobart! You both are few genuine youtubes who show sides of Korea that most tourists have no interest in
I like Pizza comments Dan… Japan had some despiccable pizzas, but kimchee pizza is pretty good compared to others. As for me white sauce base is the deal, with chicken & broccoli for one example.
I really like the 82 yr old fella! He was like a cartoon character who came to life. Ha! What up with the pizza dude? He just keep staring @ ya? Kinda disturbing behavior.
You should go to Taiwan if you havenβt been already.
Another culture who consumes high meat. Smart π damn you make us miss Korea. I really miss bi bim
Noodle in gwangjang and dakgalbi
Very nice video Dan β€
You're the new Bald and Bankrupt. Great videos.
Go to China if you are real man.
Can't wait to see you do a video on Yangcheon-gu! I lived in Mokdong for two years. I love your videos!
Love from busan!
Just found your channel and really appreciate your content
09:20 The man with the glasses is saying that his baby has just been born. So, he rushed at that building where the hospital is
21:09 he saying I want to communicate well with foreigners in English, but I'm sorry that I even don't know what to say after Hello
did you swim back to England too? :D:D
I go to the heart of this older lady…living in the open house than in a very closed developed buildings.
So agreed with your comment about the character of all buildings in Seoul. A few developers, monopoly of construction business? Maybeβ¦
The way you speak Korean is so soft and friendly μ¬κ·Όμ¬κ·Ό μ‘°κ³€μ‘°κ³€ I really enjoyed throughly. Did you happen to learn Korean from a female instructor? Btw, love your video!
Greeting from Riyadh, Saudi Arabia. I randomly came across your channel and you just got a new subscriber. I like your videos and I think you should visit Saudi but not during summer
I am a student majoring in real estate in Korea. I'm sad that I won't be able to see your video for a while because an important exam is coming up soon. I could feel your philosophy on architecture and housing in the video. As my goal is to earn enough money to build my own detached house on the outskirts of Seoul, I am also a person who seeks freedom in life and contact with other neighbors and nature. I thought about it a lot, but in the end it seems to be a realistic problem. When reality and ideals are in conflict, in order for an ideal goal to become a reality, when the number of people who agree with the goal exceeds the majority and reaches a critical point, a corresponding social movement occurs and the goal can be reached. Faced with this reality, it dawned on me that something might change, at least when I get older. That means that in order for me to finish my life in a spacious detached house, it is ironic that it is only possible if I do my best in related work and carry out a high-rise building development project during the time I can work. I can understand what drives this high-density development, I just don't mind. Anyway, thank you for the good video as always.
I think your bizarre interaction with those 2 men is because you may have been eating your pizza in a gay cruising spot. If so, thatβs hilarious!!
I've had people staring that bad at me as well but only happens like twice in a year, it's really scary so cool you didn't make the situation weirded champ π
I Love Chenonho. We were two times there. And come a third time in the end of 2023 π
