  • Hey guys, I'm back in Korea,

  • finally! My voice is also back, kind of, which is nice. I went to the doctor

  • I decided after five months of coughing

  • I should probably go and get some checks done to make sure it's nothing serious and oh, maro came to say 'hi' Maro,

  • Wow

  • Do you miss everyone?

  • So they did an x-ray of my head and my chest and they didn't see anything

  • so I guess that's good, and they gave me some allergy medicine and also some medicine to...

  • I didn't understand exactly what he was saying, because honestly he didn't speak that much English,

  • but some kind of medicine to lessen the dryness in my throat?

  • I've been taking it for two days now. My cough is about half gone, maybe 75% gone and my voice is coming back

  • so, really excited about that. Because I'm finally back in Korea

  • I'm gonna show you guys what I've been really waiting to show you. It is the one thing that I

  • love the most about being in Korea. It's probably not something that you would expect,

  • but I've wanted to share it with you for a while now, so I'm gonna make that happen today while I'm back in town.

  • I'm actually not in Korea for that long again. Gonna be here for about two weeks or so

  • and then I'm heading off on quite a long trip across Japan

  • which I've been looking forward to for a long time.

  • I'm gonna be joining my friend Chris abroad in Japan on his cycle across Japan.

  • We're gonna be visiting places that I've never been to in Japan,

  • and I'm so so excited about it and I'm gonna be sharing it with you guys on this channel

  • I'm gonna be vlogging kind of behind the scenes. Chris is of course gonna be doing his own videos.

  • So make sure you're subscribed to him so you can see his point of view and I'll have my vlogs up over here.

  • I hope you guys are as excited as I am stay tuned for that. What you doing?

  • Other good news. My newest skincare box deal goes on sale today. Lots of you guys have been requesting this

  • I'm so happy that you guys are seeing lots of improvements in your skin from using these products as well

  • wishtrend is really cool and they work with me every couple months to put together these box deals. This time

  • I put together all my ultimate favorites.

  • They're like the products that I keep going back to because I know they'll work really well with my skin.

  • I'll give you guys a quick rundown of all the things that are included

  • I'm not gonna go into detail about these products because they're my favorites,

  • I've mentioned them many times,

  • but just a quick overview now for those of you that haven't seen them before:

  • This is the facial cleanser that I've been using ever since it came out because it has a slight

  • exfoliating texture to it

  • which I really love. So it's a powder, and you put the powder in your hand add some water to it and you get like

  • a really gentle scrub on your face.

  • It just makes my skin glow and it smells like a matcha latte, which is always a plus.

  • So this is just my holy grail face wash. I've gone with the Klair's

  • Unscented toner this time just because it absorbs into your skin

  • Very nicely and leaves you with a nice

  • plump moisturized feeling without being greasy. My favourite toner by far, I use these everyday.

  • This is one of those products that I sometimes

  • get lazy with and I stop applying it for a while, and

  • then I noticed my skin starts to look a little crappy, and then I go back to using this and

  • it totally brightens up and just looks a million times better.

  • I like to do it at night time while I'm sleeping and I really really notice a difference

  • It's good for fading acne marks as well. Then of course my favorite moisturizer. I really like the texture of it

  • I feel like it absorbs nicely and it works well under makeup, so no complaints about this

  • I really don't ever try any other moisturizers because I'm so in love with this one.

  • Really basic skincare routine, if you guys are looking to get started or if you want to stock up on your faves.

  • And then they've also included a bunch of masks, because I love sheet masks,

  • I'm sure you guys love sheet masks and ten of the natural vitamin

  • 21.5% These are like really concentrated vitamin masks, so- [plastic clutter noise] oh

  • my, Maro is in the dish rack

  • What are you doing?

  • What are you doing?

  • Why are you in there?

  • You know you're not supposed to be in there.

  • Yeah, you know that [cat completely disregards Sharla's reprimand]

  • come here

  • [whispers]oh my god

  • Then they've included some of the two-in-one cotton pads as well which are really good for applying the toner

  • I'll have the link down below and this will be on sale until stocks run out

  • So if you do want to get it try and get it quickly because they tend to run out after a week or two

  • [laughter from Sharla]

  • Greg forgot his lunch at home

  • So I told him I had some leftovers from dinner that I could give to him. He's on his way to work

  • and he always packs a lunch with him so

  • he's stuck without food if we don't find food for him, so I've got some leftover

  • Chukchi

  • Which is like one of my favorite Korean dishes. Greg's never had it? What? How have you never had it? [Greg] cause I was [indistinguishable]

  • They usually give it to you as a little side dish

  • [Greg] looks like Chinese [Sharla] no [laughs] it's Korean, Chukchi!

  • We're heading out to show you guys my favorite thing about living in Korea. Greg has never been to this place,

  • I thought he had been there with me, but [Greg] No [Sharla] he hasn't so,

  • This is fun for him too. It's a beautiful day. It was 18 degrees, last time I checked. iIt's sweater weather, finally!

  • [happy acoustic guitar and drums]

  • Actually my favorite thing about living in Korea so far is that everybody is so passionate about fitness, and working out and staying

  • healthy. We are outdoors at probably one of the biggest outdoor gyms in Korea. It's completely free

  • Anybody can come use it. It's open 24 hours. It's just here in the park

  • So if it's a nice day and you don't feel like working out in the gym or at home,

  • you can come out here

  • to the park, and they have SO many machines you guys it just blows my mind.? And these gyms are all over Korea

  • Do you have any by your house?

  • [Greg] Yeah have one but it's like a little bit smaller than how this one is. They have hula hoops, but this is huge like...

  • Why is it so huge? Is this for like two people? [Sharla] nope [Greg] are you sure?

  • [Sharla] Hey, there you go, you got it

  • That is heavy. I'm gonna try this one. This one has bumps on it. Not quite sure why?

  • Doesn't really look enjoyable, but...

  • Okay, just kind of hurts... don't know why you'd put the...ow! It's not difficult or anything...but ow!

  • what is this?

  • [hula hoop makes rattling noise]

  • Oh, it's difficult, but I think it would be possible if I was better at it

  • [Greg:] Champions only!

  • But look at this Park

  • There's so much to do here look it over here and people are like working out on weight machines

  • For free if you don't need to pay for a gym membership in Korea, you can just come here

  • I tried this the other day and failed horribly. Oh

  • [Greg] If you do it daily, you'll get better though! [Sharla] ow [Greg] Does it hurt? [Sharla] yes

  • Showoff

  • [upbeat music with synths and guitar]

  • We're gonna grab some lunch now at our favorite lunch spot

  • The guy that works here knows us, and anytime we haven't been there for like over a week, he's like, 'where were you guys?!'

  • Hopefully, he's there today.

  • [Korean]

  • [Sharla]He's so cute!

  • Foods here

  • Greg always gets this like spicy pork and rice and

  • Kimbap. Today, I tried this for the first time. This is just a veggie bibimbap

  • Byeeee, see you next time!

  • Time to say bye to Greg too - he's going to work

  • Have a good day at work, I'll see you soon

  • [both]Bye!

  • Hey! waiting for me? hey!

  • Good morning!

  • Gonna chill with the cats for a little bit and I've got some work to do I've got lots of editing to do

  • My videos from Shikoku will be out very soon

  • definitely something that you guys would want to add to your Japan travel list.

  • we haven't seen each other in a while and I'm gonna be going to one of my favorite restaurants.

  • [both]Hey, long time no see! [Sunny laughs][Sharla]Look at her outfit, she is so adorable

  • Like all comfy up [Sharla]yeah, it looks so comfy, but it's cute!

  • It reminds me of like home-cooked Canadian food

  • because they have like roasted veggies and they have some meat stuff too. But I always get this roasted veggie dish. It's so good, man

  • See what I mean you guys, it's like a plate of roasted vegetables it reminds me Christmas dinner

  • I absolutely love that there's even cranberries. Sunny got the

  • risotto this time.

  • Let's eat, I'm starving!

  • [Sharla]Mmm!

  • So good!

  • You don't really see this, so I love this place

  • Alright, we'll see you guys later

  • Bye!

  • We just finished dinner and we came outside it feels like winter! So happy I changed into this sweater.

  • [Sunny]And it's only going to get colder from here. [Sharla]The winter in Korea is insane

  • But I like it. I like cold weather. It doesn't really bug me. It's the summer that I hate. [Sunny]Oh, yeah

  • Oh my god, the summer in Korea is so humid. [Sharla]Okay, where are we going now? [Sunny]Oh, we're going to gangnam

  • station and then we're gonna go to the biggest I Love Young Yeah. Oh the big one. Yeah

  • apparently they sell that mask I told you about

  • Sunny sent me this picture this seaweed mask. Yeah literally pieces of real

  • kelp that you just stick on your face for a face mask. So we're gonna go look for that.

  • [machine beeps]

  • We're inside gangnam station now

  • Quite busy this station is so good for shopping you guys

  • Every time I walk through here, I want to go clothes shopping. Ooh, yeah, they're bringing in the sweaters!

  • [Sharla] Oh, I like that one! [Sunny] it's so cute!

  • [Sharla]That looks really good on you

  • Pumpkin?

  • Pumpkin gold

  • The natto one! It smelled good! Did you try it? It smells like roses I was so disappointed

  • I tried that's in the video with Val, I don't know if you guys saw, but it smelled like roses. I wanted to smell like natto.

  • 'Please don't eat the sea kelp', who would open it up and just eat it?

  • Is it a cafe?

  • [Korean]

  • It's like a beauty store, it starts from tomorrow.

  • [Sharla] I really like the those, those would look so cute on you.

  • Everybody is wearing Fila right now. They've got these really cute chunky sneakers

  • Because the sole's so big, it gives a little bit of height too
