Anna, keep doing videos like this. Really interesting. Like you said, everyone shows the typical tourist areas, but there are so many other communities to explore. Plus showing other communities helps those local businesses as well. Adding to my list of places to visit.

I am retired from education in Canada. I love you showing neighbourhoods, people, businesses and most of all, history. Thanks Anna

Hi Anna, thank you for being a voice and unofficial educator of Korean culture to the global Korean diaspora worldwide. As you may know, many Koreans immigrated to western parts of the world to escape Korea's poverty, societal competition, and conflict back in the day. This led to Korean immigrants' children (2nd generation Korean westerners) to lose their sense of culture and ethnic identity. Your videos and other English-speaking Koreans are helping those 2nd plus generation Korean diasporas worldwide. Just wanted you to know that. :)

Loved loved this video! I am so glad that some of the old neighborhoods of Seoul still exist. We have a trip planned for summer of 2024 and will definitely put that area on our list. You are looking radiant Anna! Thank you for taking the time to share this little corner of your world.💜

This is the second video of you that I watched. I really enjoyed it. You know a lot of the history of Seoul. I appreciate that.

been bingeing seoul vlogs since this spring i'm going back to korea for the 1st time since i was 3 and i've loved your district tour vids so far!! i think my favorite part is that you give historical context to the origins of the area's culture and specialties, which is super unique from other videos i've been watching - trying to reconnect to my culture from America is difficult and i love learning more!!

[russellklinger]

Loved the vlog❤️ Been waiting for you to show us more of seoul. Keep them coming👍

Wow my grandparents old neighborhood is booming. I used to visit them at their hanok home in the 1970s. Turns out they lived right next door to President Park's house. it's now an apartment building. I remember the dirt roads and the neighborhood farmer's market. I loved those days!

[robertmarsh]

I used to go there a lot when I lived in Korea. I loved the family owned restaurants and cafés and brought many of my friends (American and Korean) there to introduce them to it before it was hip ㅋㅋㅋ. I can 100% vouch for the quality of the tteok-bokki they sell there

[Taekani]

Thanks for the tour and tips! Hopefully I'll visit one day!
