New vlog up:
It was really interesting to go to Itaewon because we hadn’t been there in a long time. Also, it was awesome to meet Sara. Yay Aussie girls! Check out her video with us HERE.
We’ll be doing some more videos with her later 🙂

We wanted to correct any misconceptions that all guys in Korea are walking around wearing Kpop makeup all the time. As we said in the video, a lot of the time people may not even be aware if a guy is wearing some makeup. The times it’s obvious is when it’s badly applied, or it’s the wrong shade. That happens with girls as well, you’ll see girls with these super pale faces that don’t match their neck.
We are both of the opinion that it’s a good thing for guys to be able to wear makeup if they want to. I’m glad to see society changing here and making it more acceptable and that it’s a fast growing market.
While Hugh wears BB cream for filming, he never wears eye makeup but has been accused of wearing eyeliner or mascara several times! He just has long dark eyelashes that makes it look like that sometimes.
We also wanted to show some opinions that are not Seoul centered. I think often when people are talking about “Korean guys” it can be mostly be talking about young guys in Seoul, because they are in Seoul and that’s what they see. Since we live in the countryside we want to show more of Korea and that Seoul does not equal all of Korea, as well as talking about different generations.
I did the same thing last spring as well, considered a few people outside to be “sooo many people!” In fact, Hugh has edited what I’ve said in several vlogs because I’ll say, “Wow so many people out today” and then the camera pans around to one ahjumma in the field. This is how the countryside changes you!
You hardly see anyone all through winter because everyone is inside and the fields are bare. Come spring and everyone emerges so I get surprised at seeing how many people live here!
You may be wondering why Hugh didn’t go to it. Although he loves Bigbang, he can be stubborn about things and didn’t want to be too much of a fangirl. Tickets were hard to get too. However, since the new songs have come out, he has been listening to them more than me! Next time he definitely needs to go. I only filmed a tiny bit because not supposed to film, and I wasn’t interested in getting full songs or photos, just wanted to show a little bit of the vibe and feeling of a Bigbang concert. If they are coming to your country I really recommend you go!
