My son currently works and lives in Jeju. Thank you for showing me what it looks like. I miss him so much. All the way from South Africa. Thank you.

[janellerenwick]

Hi! I recently started watching your channel and now I can’t stop!! I’m Korean but was adopted when I was 9mo and have lived in the US since. I would love to visit and see my roots! Thank you for your videos and giving me a glimpse of Korean life. ❤

I love Jeju Island!! I was there September 7 to 13 2024. Jeju Island is so beautiful and unique it reminds me of my home here in Hawaii. So rich in culture and traditions. I love the food and all the seafood there. The abalone, sea urchins, the horned conch shells, and others that I can’t even remember its name. And oh their black pork was so awesome. Jeju Island grows the sweetest tangerines I’ve ever tasted. I've been eating it every day since I arrived. I like how you see those stone walls everywhere! And the Dol Harubang statues. So much I’ve learned about Jeju island and so many places I have toured and visited. Even went on the ferry and toured Udo island, that was awesome too. I went to their Aquarium, their Water World, Cheonjiyeon Waterfalls, the Glass Museum, Hallim Park, and several Botanical Gardens. We even drove around the whole island. What really amazed me was that my friend/tour guide was born and raised there and that her mother who’s in her 90s was one of those Haenyeo female divers. Wow! I’ve seen documentaries about them and that blew me away! So much I want to share here, but there's too much. I will go back and continue my journey and adventure there next year. Jeju Island is like a hidden gem. Love your video. It just brings back my experience and memories. Com sa mi dah!

[tylerpurrden]

I'm from the US and I want to visit this place so much 💜

[merylrose]

I have been to Jeju. It is very beautiful. I went to some of the places in your video and we met the women divers! I’ve been to Seoul five times. Absolutely love it. Thank you for bringing me back. I will be making some of your recipes! They look amazing.

[grimmmunro]

[Jakabokbotchnd]

[JomarInFire]

[chubster]

Thank you for the wonderful video! Have you uploaded your home town yet?

[Hmw]

Hi Helen, I’m in Busan. Would you be able to recommend a good green tea to buy to take back to the US?

[wongwendy]

My sis and I are planning to visit during the last week of June next year. I am wondering if the weather will be good then. Do hope you could recommend the prefect area to book a stay. 😊

[danilon]

Is it not allowed to swim at the beach after summer? I'm here and there is not a single person on the water 😅

[cristinauy-foronda]

Thank you for sharing this video and information, definitely helpful for first-timers like me! I will be going to Jeju in May and I will reach out to Mr. Kim (I found him on Instagram!) If I may ask - where did you stay? Is it better to stay in Jeju City or Seogwipo? Thanks in advance!

[Serenity_Dee]

I've been wanting to go to Jeju Island above any other place in Korea since I first learned about it.

(Also, comparing it to Hawaii is… complicated. I understand what you mean, but the history of Hawaii makes it… uncomfortable if you know how it became part of the US.)

[LastingLight-bbwb]

Nice content modern pepper..i just remind you all that end of time is near prepared with do charity because you have obligation to God for you goodness in eternal life..

[MichiganUSASingaporeSEAsia]
