Shocking Strangers by Speaking their Language: Wholesome Funny Reactions

What happens if I walk around talking to strangers in multiple language in Tokyo? These videos are meant to encourage new language learners to go out and use that they know. There's no need to speak perfect Chinese or speak perfect Japanese. Just go out and start talking to people and have fun doing it!

This morning I was told that language YouTuber Laoshu has passed away. I’ve never had the chance to meet or talk to him, but this news is quite shocking and sad. Just last week the moderator for my channel passed away suddenly and unexpected too. This is a reminder of the fragility of life. My heart goes out to their families and those they left behind.

You really got me on the "approaching a good-looking Man" part🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

The little girl hugging the coronavirus cat absolutely made my day! Everything is happier and brighter now. Thank you! 🥰🥰🥰

RIP Laoshu, I found about this channel and other "foreigners speaking foreign language" channels because of him 😢

[RespectOthers]

This is exactly what it said on the tin...10 minutes, funny and wholesome! :D
R.I.P. Laoshu and your capable channel moderator.

The first thing I see next is Doraemon.

Great to see you back. Heard this about Laoshu this morning. He inspired me to start learning new languages. He will never be forgotten. ❤ from Germany

I really enjoy your videos. It’s so refreshing to see wholesome content during these unusual times. Thank you for taking time to give us a glimpse of your life overseas, and that you flawlessly merge English, Chinese, and Japanese together. I took one year of Chinese at University my senior year, and I’m amazed at how much of your conversations I can understand. I’ve never formally studied Japanese, but I grew up around it because my older sister studied it, yet I’m surprised how much I understand. (Chinese is easier to learn for me lol) It’s fun to see how much people light up when you speak to them in their native languages, and when you are genuinely having fun appreciating their culture!^^
May you continue to stay safe and healthy this year. ^^

I really love seeing Sam💗 He reminds me of my son. His long hair, personality..also his sarcasm 😄 I also loved that little character. It makes me smile when I see it!

[CalciteSerendipity]

I can see the title of a future video
"White girl rides off with someone she just met on the back of a motorcycle."

In these hard times with too much bad news it is important to find some rays of happiness. Thank you for bringing us joy in your videos.

I lived in Japan for 4 years. I was stationed at Camp Zama. I loved Japan!!! Everyone there is so polite and nice to each other. No judgement in Japan.

[lightsaver]

This was so wholesome to watch!! Super interesting to see so many parts of your everyday life put into one video, i like the divided portions, it's awesome!

[jamesthepuerilis]

Gwailou or gweilo actually is a Cantonese terminology to refer to westerners. Its typically a derogatory term, however in this day and age I think its impact has subsided drastically.

[hemikiwi]

gweilo means foreigner, normally referring to white foreigners in cantonese. i heard it all the time when living in hong kong .
