the U.S. just has better stand up comedy. Especially since the crowd isn't as touchy. I like Kevin Heart, Kurtis Conner, Dave Chappelle, John Mulaney, and Chris Rock
Theyre taking some of these jokes too literally 😂. You don't have to think of them as real stories, just have fun listening to the way the comedian tells it

Kevin Hart is funny if you understand English, mannerisms of english, black mannerisms, etc... Otherwise just reading what he is saying will not hit the same.

i think the only thing koreans can joke about is sex because its such a taboo topic to them. while in other countries, they can joke about how others act, look, or even talk, basically everything else in the world besides sex.

nah it's just because stand up is still in its baby stages in Korea. My country went through the same thing where initially, most stand-ups did whole sets about sex and sexual stuff because it was shocking and the first time we were hearing sex being described like that but as stand-up has evolved and grown pretty huge over here, sex isn't really the focal point of most comedy anymore even though sex as a topic still remains taboo for us societally...top comedians here have branched off to all kinds of topics that are sometimes even too niche, but now we have experience as audiences and know exactly how to act and what to expect at one of these shows...Korean stand-ups will also start doing more observational stuff about other heavy topics like politics, religion and societal issues when they build a big enough audience that would protect them from people that might get offended..

Well the comedy skit where kevin cursed alot was the point of his joke. The premise was that he interpreted as a kid that his mom gave him permission to curse one time. So his kid mind thought he could only had that one opportunity that his mom let slide. So he took full advantage of that opportunity. 😂😂

I never even considered if other cultures had stand up comedy before this. Now that I think abt it, I’ve only seen Korean comedians on shows like gag con or SNL Korea. Never would’ve imagined that stand up comedy wasn’t a thing for them.

It kinda doesn’t surprise me bc I beieve there are so many Koreans striving to be comedians, especially back then.
As soon as they get used to the fact that stand up has almost no boundries no topic or person in the room is safe. I think it will be a hit there. You have to be able to laugh at yourself, take nothing personal and just enjoy the humor in everything. Its often Adult humor too the more shocking the better.

They would never show Richard Pryor, George Carlin, or Eddie Murphy, and especially Red Foxx.
i think standup comedy is hard to translate. it's important that the audience speaks the same language and has knowledge of the culture from which the standup comedian comes from, if you have to read what they're saying it immediately loses it's punch. of course it can still be funny, but like in the case of the korean girls not getting kevin hart's swearing at the teacher bit, they didn't get it because they either don't know the language or the culture well enough to get the greater meaning beyond just what he's saying..
If they find the Korean porn joke "intense" then they are not ready for American comedy. HUGE cultural difference.
I’m Korean American and I’ve grown up on American style stand-up comedy. If I were to choose between the two? I prefer American style stand-up comedy more. I’ve lived in Korea for more than 15 years now and I’m so glad to see that stand-up comedy in Korea is slowly but steadily growing popularity in Korea.
Its so nice seeing them interacting with the Western culture too!
That Jo Koy bit ALWAYS makes me crack up! Including when he mimics other Asian accents, or when he talks about his mom!

Somebody hug Cha Cha, she thinks all stories told in standups are usually true🥺🧚♀️😇..
I'm a huge fan of standup comedy and American comedians like to talk about difficult topics since the whole premise of stand up comedy is "no boundary". They talk about everything and heavy topics like politics, racism, school shooting, etc can be easier to talk about if the comedian is good with their jokes. I think that's what Korean stand up comedian in the clips were also doing. since sexual conversation is quite taboo or difficult to talk about in general, they make stand up comedy as kind of like a safe space to joke about it.
kevin is so funny i swear, i’m glad they were able to react to him 😭
I'd really love to see them watch different comedians (Taylor Tomilson, preacher lawson, etc) because there's such a wide range of comedians that you can't really get by watching only a couple. ^_^

kevin hart is the best!!! I used to watch all his stand up shows/movies in middle school and he never failed to make me laugh!! in school everyone knew his lines
Stand up Comedians often rely on nuance and delivery of their jokes. So it would make sense that Kevin Hart and JoKoy arent as funny to them, but here in America they are some of our top tier comedians
I had a bit mixed feelings about the Korean stand up comedians. While the jokes did get some laughs out of me I was constantly on edge cause we know how conservative many men in Korea are so I don't know if they will end up saying something that is misogynistic in my eyes since they did do only sex jokes. Also I prefer if there are only a few sex jokes in between, not the whole show. But I guess it's normal that people who are still new to stand up start with taboo topics which is literally sex in Korea.
I think the language barrier had them confused on the Kevin hart teacher one. They didn’t know the joke was about letting him say 2 little cuss words and he went to school and said all the worst ones he could think of 😂
There is a comedian named Fluffy, and his are pretty wholesome. His is really funny and I think they would love his type of comedy.

I liked seeing what Korean stand-up is like - I've often wondered what type of humour is used. But I'm severely disappointed that there isn't a single comedienne in this entire video. For anyone who's curious, Iliza Shlesinger, Taylor Tomlinson, Wanda Sykes, Fortune Feimster and Tig Notaro are must-watch entertainers in my opinion! 😉
It’s cause they don’t understand Kevin’s mannerisms and the way he talks and just everything. You need to really understand to find something funny fr. Just reading won’t hit the same😂
Danny Cho is really underrated. His podcast is funny too.
That Ostrich video is a classic!

I feel like a significant amount of that Kevin Hart time could've been swapped for the rest of that Jo Koy clip. The segment, I found, was extremely hilarious especially if you watched from start to finish. Those clips for Kevin weren't nearly as funny for the chunk of time they took (no malice intended) Also I would LOVE to see Preacher Lawson on here

C’est tellement marrant de voir que les insultes outre-mer et tellement pris plus naturellement et rigole comparé a la corée 😂😂 c’est amusant
LMFAO! This is the funniest OSSC video yet.
They should have watched Gabriel Iglesias and Matt Rife too! It would have been cool if they could see some female stand-ups too. I think there's a slight difference between male and female comedy and the response to it.
The bit with the mafia joke was hilarious !!
Kevin Heart is so funny 😭 I didn’t really think much of it when he started cussing at his teacher since she disrespected him first but I get it’s different from each country
I realize that I have never seen a Korean standup routine before now hahaha, just gagmen.
The rest of Jo Koy's bit about other Asian accents is hilarious
Cha Cha as usual the only one keeping it real/Wilding. Putting that ID number to good use.
Do a pt. 2! Y'all definitely gotta have some Kat Williams in this 😂.
I have a friend from SK studying abroad at our university and he takes me way too literally, so sometimes he's either alarmed at my jokes or gets kind of offended at them lol but it's nice to understand why
I mean the unnie at the left end smirking like idk but we know 😂🤣!
Kevin had me crying TEARS BRO I NEVER LAUGHED SO MUCH LIKE DAT
There are many good standup comedians I would like to see a full video dedicated to just one of them. Dave chapelle is a must and jimmy carr roasting his audience is also a must. Then jimmy o yang, preacher Lawson and Chris rock are good as well.
Kevin is hilarious 🤣
NAHHH CUZ ALL THEM CLIPS HAD ME WHEEZINGGGG
You can really tell they were fake laughing when Kevin hart went..💀😭
jo koy's humor is the "it's funny because it's true" kind. you can't even be mad at it because it's just true.
Ahh i see the problem, they really took everything seriously. Most of stand up comedian material are made up or exaggerated, so you just enjoy the sheer absurdity of it. As long as you understand that, i think you can enjoy every standup no matter from which countries it is.

Kevin is really a goat of comedy
these girls are my favorite !!! lol
This was a good one! If I could make a request for the next standup, try Katt Williams!
As a westerner, Korean is a very emotional language. It can convey deep emotions, with just one or two words. I love the Korean language.
Glad they enjoyed lol, also we do tend to use more swear words just as a way of expressing ourselves so hopefully they can look past that and enjoy the jokes
i died i was on the floor with kev
OK but the Taegeuk joke had me DYING!
People say Stand Up Comedy is about no bounds jokes, but to me I've always felt it was a balance of trying to do social commentary in a way that makes people think while laughing; much like other artforms I suppose. Maybe it's why I do like the idea of this video, but wish there was other comedians besides Kevin Hart's, since his jokes would largely be about things relating to his pov on the world. I think if there's ever a second part to this, having more varied stand up acts from time eras would be as beneficial as taking race into account.
they should totally react to spanish stand-up comedy
Should've had Dave Chapelle, he's the Greatest of All Time in comedy.
I kind of wish they mentioned Jo Koy being Filipino-American, since he’s Filipino-American and that most of his content is about the Philippines 🇵🇭
It is interesting how a lot of korean comedies have a slightly different kind of humor, but standup feels relatively similar between the two.
Missed opportunity, shouldve showed them some old bobby lee stand up.
What are the names of those korean stand-up comedians in video, I tried to find it but was unable to find there videos.
Oh Lord you have to show them more comedy bits/comedians. My recommendations would be Billy Gardell, Robin Williams, Gabriel Iglesias (the Racist Gift basket story) and Tracy Morgan's most recent Netflix special Staying Alive. For starters. ;)
I love Jo Koy so much.
"Is 15 min short?" Girl, what?!?!......YESSSS!!!
Be cool to have them react to some stand-ups from Bill Burr.
I'd like to see them watch some Dry Bar Stand Up
LMAOO i love Kevin hart😭😭😻
im gonna be honest, kevin hart's not even the funniest U.S. comedian but he was def the funniest one in this video
Should’ve definitely shown them Matt Rife. He is good with audiences and bouncing off them to make the joke. Love seeing the comedic differences for stand up comedians in each country with such different views.
I think comedy is super cultural, it’s really hard to be “in on the joke” when you don’t deeply understand the language and mannerisms, just another reason to want to learn about other cultures!!!! ❤
Honestly, I feel bad they don’t understand and appreciate Kevin hart cos of cultural differences 😢 - I didn’t find the Korean guy that funny either 🥲
Fluffy amazing
Wait, is that whole desert chase scene in _Jumanji: The Next Level_ based on this Kevin Hart bit? I'd like to see them react to some bits from Trevor Noah or Fluffy, personally, or perhaps a female comedian like Taylor Tomlinson, who's my latest fave.
12 korean comedy clips vs only 2 americans. What a comparison
I think I liked the American jokes more because they talked about diverse topics (ostriches, teachers, accents), but every single one of the Korean comedians only talked about sex, sex and sex! Maybe it’s just the people that you picked and there’s actually a wider variety among the Korean comedians, but the sex jokes are too crude to be funny for me
Hey guys! I think it would be interesting for you to react to a Heavy Metal band called Jinjer, it would be cool to start with the song Pisces and then Home Back
This is why sex-ed is so important. These girls have way too high expectations with "15 minutes is short" 🤣 The average guy is somewhere between 4-7 minutes.
