Yes, I was impressed by salaries - people at construction sites can earn up to $450 a day (mostly those, who deal with special vehicles). That's why so many foreigners come to work in South Korea.

I am Korean American. I think the reason why Koreans are generally nice is because of the culture of "Jung", which could probably means... like "deep care"?? within people. That could be why many people would help, pay, fight for someone who are in need. But there is a bad side of "Jung" too. People care about other people so they could ask about your personal life like, "why did you not get marry?" even though they just met you today. Some people feel very annoyed with those personal interfering but again, there is good side like helping other people.

I think especially in Seoul, which is more international compared to other cities, but also in other parts of Korea, people will be friendly towards foreigners in general because Koreans always feel like we not only represent ourselves but our country when we meet foreigners. When Koreans go overseas, we are usually very careful because we have a strong desire to represent our country with dignity and honor. Of course we also have the "정" factor as well which is a big part of our culture.

Awesome content!! Such a nice video! I travelled to Seul for 1 week, 3 years ago and after the trip I was compelety in love with the country and the people from there. I was living in Japan for that year, both countrys have similarities and since them I really appreciate almost everything of their culture.

Because you visited the most EXPENSIVE CITY in Korea, I am pretty sure you are talking about Gang Nam that Psy sang a song about. Get of GangNam You will see and surprise how cheap Seoul is. Visit small private stores which are called gol-mok ga-ge Ask people and visit there then you will see most of things are very cheap compared to other major cities. Visit Dong-Myo in Seoul that the cheapest place you could buy things what you want. But I respect your opinion due to the fact that you are conveying quite right true things to people and appreciate for visiting to Korea^^

I am a big fan of you. Im not judging you but I as a Korean just want to correct something which is a bit wrong. Average salary in a month for those who are just graduated in four-year college started around $30,000 yearly. As far as I know, basic construction workers earn 120-150$ a day in depends of their skills. Most interesting part in Korea is we do not promote importing work force from foreign countries unlike other developed countries since we are proud of our self as one ethnic country(Korean). I am happy for you to enjoy Korean trip or vacation. It is always joyful to look at the view of my home country from eyes of foreigners. From Sean in NY.
