living alone in seoul ep.48 - living in korea as a foreigner entails facing language barrier challenges. In this episode I show you a very real documentation of the struggles and reality of living in korea as a foreigner where I experience the challenges of not being fluent in korean. Also it just so happens that in this episode I do a bunch of medical tests at korean hospitals and go to the dentist - so I show you the cost of medical care in korea.

    I found your channel recently and I'm really enjoying your vlog style days. It really helps seeing other people's experience as I am also interested in moving there in max 2 years. I was looking at your channel and I'm not sure if I missed it, but do you have a video where you explain a bit how you learned korean to get to the lvl you're at? You mentioned in the video you had some challenges but I still think it's amazing that you were able to do so many things in Korean, like going to doctor's appointments, immigration office etc and sustaining conversations in Korean. That's so so cool! Thank you for sharing your days with us!

    Glad to hear you enjoy the vlogs ☺️ I self taught using popular language apps/KZread videos/podcasts/websites for a year. Then I started taking class using workbooks that go through various grammar points. I would say most of my learning is pretty much self taught~

    omg i just landed in your channel and absolutely adored it! one thing i found funny about you being awkward with the the shot is that it's pretty common here in brazil, but instead of slapping the butt before injecting the medicine, nurses normally pinch it and shot the pinch (idk if this makes sense in english lol). about the rubbing, perhaps it was to help the medicine "dissolve" and not leave any bumps that might be uncomfortable while sitting.

    It's very normal in Asia to receive injections in your buttock. What she did after the injection was to rub the area to dissolve any accumulated medicine or blood in the area. If she didn't do that, you might develop a small bump later. The bump won't hurt & will go away in a few days. However, since it's at the buttock, it can be uncomfortable!
