When your parents disapprove of your international relationship

Image
If your parents are against your international relationship, you need to know why they are against it. If they are against it because of their personality, then it is fine. However, if they are against your relationship just because they are out of your race or foreigners, then I think you shouldn't care about them too much. Your life is your life. Your marriage is your marriage. You live your life, and you and your spouse work your marriage. No one does it for you. You need to know if your girlfriend/boyfriend make you happy, that is all that matters. One thing that you need to remember is you shouldn't date him/her just because you want to be rebellious to your parents. You might feel that you are Romeo or Juliet since they are against you. You might think that that is more fun and exciting because they are against it so it must be forbidden love and more thrilling. However, you need to know that when parents are against your love, there must be reasonable reasons. So, you ne...

Young Korean people's opinions on international dating and marriage

Many of my subscribers and readers of my Youtube and blog want to know how open Korean people are about international dating and marriage. I asked what kind of questions that want to know about Koreans, and many people commented on the video. I interviewed my students and picked the questions that were most asked by people and asked the questions. I interviewed 6 students of mine. They are all Korean born and raised in Korea.

Do you want your girlfriend/wife to learn Korean or will you learn English? 5. Do you want her to move to Korea or will you move to her country to live? 6. As a Korean man, do you get upset when you see Korean women date foreign men? The first student that I interviewed was Adam. H...

Jeju Island Trip 3 (Dragon Head Rock, U-do) - Places to visit in Jeju Island, South Korea

Image
The next day,  we decided to go to U-do which is a very pretty small island right next to Jeju Island. You need to get on a big boat to go there. On the way to the port to go to U-do, we stopped by Dragon Head Rock. Does it look like a dragon head? Dol-harubang is a symbol of Jeju Island. Hi!!! We were almost near the port, but we saw one guy with two horses, and we had to rid the horse before we went to U-do. It was extremely beautiful right next to Sungsan Sunrise Peak. The flat peak behind us is famous Sunrise peak. People go there to see the sun rise. We will never forget this moment. We got on a boat and went to U-do. Your car can get on a boat, too. You just drive to the boat and then when you get to U-do, you just drive out of the boat! U-do!!!! Look at the beach and the sky! Just amazing!!! Yuri imitating Mommy! One! Ah!!! We had lunch right next to the beach. Grandma and Yuri love each other so much! We went to U-do peak. The place was just breath-taking. Really Be-autiful...
