@5:11 "I'm a Korean getting culture shocked by Korean culture". Lol. You still have not lost your Filipino sense of humor. Philippines miss you Juwonee.
So cool that your Psyche is pure Filipina. Just remember to embrace the two cultures and you'll be more happier and wiser than most of the people you meet.

When I watched your video, it was me who got culture shocked by how candid and natural your Tagalog was. 😁😍😁I hope you won't forget the Philippines now that you are back in Korea.
One good thing being a filipino is that we don’t worry about culture shock since we try and can adapt to any place, situation or environment easily and asap. Our philosophy is: that’s part of life and God will provide; why worry.

Sure, Filipinos are adaptable but, of course, they experience culture shock be it climate, local customs, shopping habits or food. It would be odd if you didn't.

Filipinos do too. Everyone does that goes someplace that is unfamiliar and culturally different but the only difference with pinoys is they adapt so well that some forget their own culture. I know plenty of full blooded pinoys who know very little or none at all about Pinoy culture. I'm only 1/4 Pinay but I've met others who are so shocked that I know the culture and speak my grandma's dialect. Meanwhile, the other Asians I know are the opposite. They make sure their kids never forget.

Hi Juwonee, I like the way narrate your experiences, both in Tagalog and English at very fluent ha. Intelligent ka, nakakatuwa, so natural flow of thought mo na genuine feel talaga. Aabot sa 500k subs ka, I pray, mula sa Korea at Pinas. Puede kang ambassador ng Korea to Pinas, or vice versa. More videos please. Guisto ko din sila Ms. KrispyP, Dasuri C, Ryan Bang,
I'm impressed the way you narrate yourself, experiences and observations about Philippines. Your fluency in Tagalog and English were impressive. More power to you.
Omg I have experienced this! I studied in France for a year when I was in college, and have gone through almost all the stages, probably 3.5 lol Kasi hindi naman ako na fully integrated, but I got adjusted in sa French society by my 3rd month. Then when I came back sa US(born in Philippines pero grew up sa US), na culture shock ako going back home 🤣 I started missing the boulangeries, fromageries, the public transportation, the historical buildings, etc.

In my observation, you have a mixed of 3 worlds....Western, Pinoy middle-class and Korean cultures. You adapt to them really well...and i find you funny with a good sense of humor (pinoy style)....😁
Yup. I definitely experience Reverse Culture Shock when I go back to the Philippines. I can’t drive in Manila or in the provinces anymore, although I had been driving in Manila for several years before I left the country. But I’m sure if I stay long enough in the country, I’ll get used to everything again.
just subscribed now kc nakita ko ang sincerity mo..ur one of a kind korean who loved and embraced Filipino culture without any hesitations and doubts ta all
I wish this was longer! Hoping for a part 2!
I like the way you explained about the stages of culture shock. It is very true. I am an OFW in Japan and I've been living and working here for more than 6 years now. And honestly, I've just gotten to the 4th stage honestly on the 5th year. For other people, they can adapt much earlier depending on how fast they'd embrace the foreign society they're in and how much rooted they've been in their own culture. Overall, thank you for sharing this vlog. I've had sudden reflections about my life here. ☺️
Glad to see your vlog. You speak very well Filipino or English, you’re very entertaining, pretty and nice to listen to your stories. Keep it up & a lit of people will follow you.
Your tagalog is like those of the pinoy kids as we call it mga "sosyalin",taglish but still very pinoy accent. I love watching your vlogs,it's kinda cute😉
I love your 'shorts' and been watching it! So happy that you're also in YT now. Much ❤❤❤ from PH!
She did really made an effort to read for this relevant topic and share it to us who wanted to know (more) about the Korean culture and differentiate or relate it with ours. Salamat 🙏
Nice presentation! Very informative. You are probably Filipino culture to the core even while your parents and you preserved Korean culture in the PI. But, do your parents speak Tagalog too? You’re so good at it! Obviously since you pretty much lived in PI your whole life. Enjoy the two cultures that make up who you are!
Nkakatuwa pakinggan storya mo. 😊 Specially when you're speaking Tagalog I would never imagine you as anything else but local. Your diction, phrasing, inflection, vocabulary, all the elements of a native Tagalog speaker are there. I hope you're enjoying the transition to your Korean life. ❤
first 5 seconds, im already sold!! already subscribe!
Love you being a sweet Koreana with Filipino Heart! I hope you spread that wonderful cultural accepting/embracing attitude to your hometown. 🥰
Your Tagalog is so perfect, like a native speaker. Your English is also flawless I must say.

I'm a Filipino who immigrated with my family to Montreal (Canada) over 35 years ago and was expat to Manila a few years ago. My first reverse culture shock was how everyobe used kuya (older brother), ate (olser sister) and nanay (mother) to anyone regardless of age to you as long as they are about your age or older. Second was the cleaning of table in a fast food area, we are so used to cleaning up our mess here in Montreal after a meal that it was automatic for me but once in Manila, I was being scolded by the cleaners that I was taking away their duties 😊. The other was the tipping - when you are used to leaving 10-20% of tip in Canada then to the least you should the server in Manila, this was a little bit humiliating for me but I was scolded by all of my friends everytime.

After living in Australia for over a year I returned to Manila and got so bothered seeing beggars and homeless people in the streets. Nadudurog Yun puso ko. It took me almost years to get used to seeing them again. After seeing a place where poverty and hopelessness is almost absent, then moving back to the Philippines... it's so jarring.
I really like your vlog it's entertaining, informative and so funny. Keep on posting and I hope you get more subscribers.😃
Ur tagalog as well as ur English is so perfect! 🙌
Interesting. I am a Canadian that has lived in Korea for 24 years. I might have encountered some culture shich but before that I had lived in Europe for 8 years. When I go back to Canada I feel a little culture shock because things have changed but people there expect me to know because I look and sound like them. But I don’t know how some things work or heard of them and really Canadians get impatient because I ask questions about things that are obvious to them they think everyone knows. Actually last time I was there I was glad to get back to Korea where everything is normal.
Dito sa Pinas nabibilang lang ung mga honest na tao, ung kayang ibalik or sauli Ang napulot na wallet or Phone. Ako noong high school Ako naka pulot Ako ng Pera pero sinauli ko sa may Ari tapos noong college Ako nahulog ko ung wallet ko na may Pera walang nagsauli sa akin, pang tuition ko pa Naman ung noon. .kaya sana maging honest din lahat sana Ang mga tao Dito sa Pinas..
We miss you here in the Philippines. I hope you come to visit here once again. Goodluck and God bless to you and your family.
First time seeing your video and I love it. So simple and at the same time kind of funny.
You forgot to mention that in Korea you cannot find someone with a "Good Morning towel" in his head

Oh my god. It's so weird (in a good way) to know a Korean who's got a VERY PINOY HUMOR. 😂
Well this Korean lady speaks like she is Filipino. Her English is Filipino in style and accent. She speaks Tagalog like any other Filipino. Awesome 😮😮

A Pinoy traveller and now here living in Canada for a decade, i may say travelling and living abroad made me more appreciative of the differences of people. The only thing we need to do when dealing with other nationalities or other cultures is to be kind.your kindness will show how good you are living outside your comfort zone. More power to your channel!

Ung salty foods sa Pinas, for me is for replenishing of electrolytes since even just walking around in a 30-33+C will make you sweat. Isa pa, we're a maritime country loving the bountiful seafood and it's flavors. Basta malakas lang mag hydrate. Sarap eh😁
..finally,, so glad to see you again..
I am a Batangueño senior citizen who stumbled into one of your videos, the one with Batangueño accent. This video is the second one i’ve watched. I kept laughing and sometimes to the point of tears. Your Batangueña accent is real. I dare say you are a Batangueña who looks like a Korean 😂🤣
Hello 👋. New subscriber here from the USA, though Filipino (-American). Your story is unique, interesting, admirable. Your love of the Philippines, your sadness when you flew out, are unsurprisingly, emotionally, understandably, lovable. Your Tagalog is perfect, together with the accent. Your English sounds Pinoy-ish, too---like a Filipino speaking English. You are funny, too. Be yourself and don't change. 😉 On second thought, I would not consider your scenario "reverse culture." Having brought to the Philippines when you were just 4 years, I would posit that at that point in time, you had not been exposed or experienced Korean culture yet, being that you still had baby milk in your mouth. So, in my view, you are just undergoing a plain one-way culture shock, no reverse yet. 😑
Staying here in the Philippines for more than a decade can really change someone no matter where that person came from. Particularly, gaining the experience and knowledge of two different cultures.
It's so interesting to hear your experiences of reverse culture shock! I, too, had reverse culture shock when I went to the Philippines to stay with my dad. I'm fully Filipino, but I was born and raised in the US. So, my home culture is America since I spent pretty much my entire life here. I ended up staying in the Philippines for almost 3 years, and while I've visited in the past, I've never stayed for more than 3 months. I got the first culture shock when I had to adjust to living in the Philippines for so long. Nag-adjust naman ako sa Pilipinas kasi full immersion sa kultura at wika yun, pero at least may background ako ng Tagalog gawa ng upbringing ko. Nagsalita ng magulang ko ng Tagalog sa bahay, pero yung mga sagot ko ay English. 😅 But when I got back to the US after adjusting to the Philippines, that was when I got my reverse culture shock. Tama ka naman sa mga phases ng ganyan. First, I was so glad to be back and talking to people who could understand my native tongue, and everything is so organized and efficient. (Sidenote: Sobrang taas ang fluency mo sa Tagalog. Kung narinig ko lang ng salita mo at hindi ko nakita na Koreana ka, akala ko na ikaw ay purong Pilipina talaga.) Then, I realized that every day life is very different. I had to readjust to the faster pace of everything here as compared to the Philippines, as well as how to interact with Americans. After about half a year, I finally started to feel normal again. Since your home culture is the Philippines, you'll definitely feel reverse culture shock when you go back there. But in time, it will feel all right. I think the initial shock of going to somewhere that you're not familiar with is stronger than the reverse, but maybe that's different for everyone. Also, this was my first time seeing your videos, so I'm a new subscriber now.
This is gold 👌
Not gonna lie. I’ve never seen an ethnic Korean that’s also a Filipino national. Also I’ve never heard of reverse culture shock before. Edit: I’ve probably would have never guessed she’s actually Korean considering there are many Filipina women that can look like her in some way. For example, my wife is Filipina but some people mistake her for Japanese due to her fair complexion. For the record, I’m Filipino myself but I was mistaken for Latino a couple of times due to my light-brown complexion. Which is a little funny to me considering I’m actually learning Spanish due to the Philippines slowly reintegrating the language. Also for the record: My wife was born and raised in the Philippines whereas I was born and raised in the United States. My wife is currently living with me in the U.S.
Dude, I experienced the same thing when I tried KFC (and McDonald's) as well sa Vietnam, Malaysia, Thailand and Singapore. Each country had their own specialty food that my cousins and I tried for the sake of trying them kahit na some of them we didn't like to eat talaga. Hope to see more of your videos soon!

Me naman when I had a one-month vacation in my home country, the Philippines, after living in South Korea for about 2 years: Hindi na sanay sumakay ng jeep. Iniisip ko noon eh baka kasi sa loob ng 2 years na wala ako, hindi na pwedeng sumakay sa nakasanayan kong sakayan, baka hindi na pwedeng magbaba ng pasahero kung saan-saan, etc. Pero I regained my hometown-self after a week... So basically, I'm already at that fifth stage of culture shock na "Oh! I forgot it's like here"... Yun lang...

Trivia lang po. Nung mga 70s, 80s, and 90, yung mga taga-South na pumupunta ng Maynila ay biglang hindi na marunong mag-salita ng kani-kanilang sarilang salita kapag umuwi. Kasi daw nasanay na raw sa accent. Pero kapag nasaktan ayun bumabalik naman sa dati 😅🤣
