What we are up to and fan mail!

It feels like it’s been so long since we’ve filmed with this background! We were in Seoul for so long, and we also left our tripod in Seoul so we didn’t film anything inside until we’d picked it up again. We talk about my health, the Webtoon, Hugh vlogging and we open some packages.

Watching Vlogs

I do watch a lot of YouTubers and I do enjoy watching vlogs. That’s one of the reasons why we started a vlogging channel because I find many vlogs really interesting and thought maybe our viewers would like to see more of the every day stuff that we do.

While I know some people like the Aussie accent (though my own accent makes me cringe), Mr Gwon does have a fondness for pretty girls with cute accents so he will often come have a look if I’m watching Zoella with her British accent or CutiePieMarzia with her Italian accent. He is not so interested in someone like Flula though…

 

Speaking of accents, I had a really weird message the other week and I think it was from a Korean person. They informed me that I should teach my husband the difference between F and P, as well as D and TH and that my husband should speak English properly. It was really quite derogatory and completely missed the point because if you can understand Hugh/Mr Gwon – it doesn’t matter that he has a Korean accent. I like his Korean accent! He knows the difference between those sounds in English, he can pronounce them no problem, he just doesn’t always bother or feel the need to. Language is about communication and if someone can communicate fine, well nitpicking at things like that just makes it harder for people to gain confidence. Unfortunately there is an attitude among many Koreans of being extremely judgmental of someone’s English skills. Many Koreans, with a high level of English, are confident speaking English around native English speakers but freeze up if they have to speak English in front of Koreans.

Anyway, that’s my rant. I will be extremely happy if my Korean skills ever reach the level of my husband’s English skills.

No Vlogs

No vlogs

One of the reasons why I decided to start the vlogging channel is because I enjoy many other YouTubers who also have vlogging channels. So sometimes I’m waiting to see their vlogs… but hypocritically I haven’t always uploaded my vlog either… oops.

NEW VLOGGING CHANNEL

We have started a new YouTube channel! This one is (almost) daily vlogs so you can see a lot more of what we do. Sometimes it’s hard to vlog on our main YouTube channel because we have to have some sort of storyline to them and they still take a lot of editing. But on our vlogging channel it’s more just point and shoot and upload. We won’t be worrying too much about editing or music. We hope you guys like them. We can show you a lot more stuff this way, though we won’t always be looking our best…. sorry!

Here is our first vlog on the new channel, which is called Nicholalala.

Make sure you subscribe!!! There will be many more videos coming!
