- If you click this video because you remember me... surprise! I'm back on youtube! Long time no see 😊
After many years of hiatus I've decided to come back to Off the Great Wall to check up on you. Let me know how you're doing! Also I'm thinking of posting something regularly here... let me know what you wanna see. Keep in mind... We are in a lockdown situation so there's only so much I can do. But I'm excited to see you all again!

@0:10- no, it's YOU! Not us. I missed you so much. So glad that you're back!
Are you familiar with Szechuan style cooking? Do you know of a dish called (in English) water-boiles tripe? It's soooo delicious. Only very few restaurants make it in my town and it is always on a secret Szechuan menu that a lot of people are scared to order from because it's way too spicy for them. Please respond because I would like to know if you are familiar with it. I'm sure the name of the dish is probably something else in your language but that is just how it reads on every menu in English. The dish is a soup and it uses leaf/book tripe and has a very good spicy water based broth. The spices make the broth color red.
How is the rest of the crew? Miss them too.
me and my cat aren't talking
AHHHHHH THE LONG AWAITED DAY OF OTGW RETURN.
Missed you Carmen!
I can’t believe it. I remember coming back here like 5 months ago and realizing how you haven’t uploaded in 3 years. I’ve not been a long time fan, or really a fan at all, but I’m excited about this.
This is the biggest comeback of the DECADE
hahaha... now you're making me feel even more old! Liking what you're doing with your channel. Keep it up!
*YOU'RE THE CZcams PREMIUM GUY*
I was just a kid when I used to watch these guys. Now I'm 21. 😭
Still a kid 😜
ME TOO!
same
i was 21 when i watched this channel 😭😭😭
Me too! And I’m also 21 now
I forgot this channel existed
Me too!
surprise!
@@NTDOffTheGreatWall oh well, the first video I watched on thsi channel was dish battle lol9lol
Same
same, i even thought this channel has dead since few years ago and forget it
Yay carmen is back
wow the legends have returned
How many people is she?
Because they're bored lol. Were in a pandemic and they have nothing to do lol.
So in eight years you haven't aged a day. I on the other hand somehow managed to grow a couple of white hairs. 😢
Of course. Asian don’t raisin. 😂
Nah... the last time I went to the hairdressers.... which is like a year ago now. He was like, "are you stressed? why do you have so many white hairs?" then he goes and plucks them out one by one... it was kinda weird lol
Eh she has that Asian Genetics... that genetic that make you look younger than your age God tier gene..
@@NTDOffTheGreatWall I was in high school when I used to watch u guys, now I have a masters degree:)
Oh what, Where in the world has Carmen been!? Dan has been all over the Invisiline commercials as a doctor. Must be doing well for himself 😁.
fr when I saw those commercials I was like *rubs eyes* "am I seeing that right? yo is that dan from otgw"
Really? I haven't even noticed. Now, I gotta CZcams an Invaslign commercial. Lol.
@@ilovenoodles7483 lmao mans really gonna choose to watch a commercial just for dan chen.
@@veesshenanigans1732 Same!
No wonder that guy looked so familiar!!!
I thought I was dreaming
*Is everyone else returning to this channel? I always thought of this channel when it wasn't active because this was my first channel about Cantonese, Korean, Chinese cultures and tips and hacks etc.*
Honestly.... I didn't talk to anyone about this. Just wanted to pop in to say hi and make it a regular thing. But I do plan to contact a couple of them and see. Who knows.
@@NTDOffTheGreatWall *Ooh! I can't wait! I miss this channel so much.*
Holy shit, it's been 8 years??? 😮😯😲🤯
I know right 😅
I didn’t think OTGW would ever get new content again! I love this channel, but I thought there was no way, after this long. Glad to see you have been doing well, and keeping it together during this weird time.
As for vids I’d like to see, I would love more folklore and history-based vids. Those are always my favorites! But pretty much anything is welcome when it comes to Asian cultures, Chinese or otherwise. I just love learning about it all, and the entertainment factor is much appreciated.
Neither did I! Lol. But the recent few months I've done a lot of self reflection and had the opportunity to get the login again. so.... why not? It's like reuniting with my long lost family!
@@NTDOffTheGreatWall Welcome back. This indeed is a pleasant surprise.
I never unsubscribed and I'm happy I didn't 😀. What a surprise though!
🎉 Thanks for sticking around!
I still have a signed copy of "The complicated chinese family tree" by you and dan on my room wall!
A SIGNED copy? Damn! I don't even think I have a copy anymore....
I started watching your videos when I was a university student. I was working on my degree in Asian studies and used your videos as a connecting point between cultures. Now I am a teacher, I still use your videos as a teaching point about Chinese and Asian cultures. Being half Filipino and living in China, this channel has helped me teach my friends and students about the Asian community. I have been learning Mandarin (and some Cantonese (I lived in Guangdong for a bit)) and still keep some of your videos on my saved list.
That's so great to hear! I've heard other teachers telling me the same thing. Never thought I'd ever be a "teacher" 😆
Nice to see you again, I love the fact that you do your Off the Great Wall videos in both Cantonese and Mandarin, or at least say words or phrases in both dialects. As a Canadian Cantonese speaker (who's kind of forgotten some Cantonese words) it's very helpful.
Yes, many ppl have told me how much they miss Cantonese videos. It is getting rarer nowadays
Hi Carmen, I'm Jessie.
I stumbled upon this channel about four years ago, had so much fun watching the videos you guys had brought to us. That was such a shame that you guys stopped uploading videos about three years ago, but I'm sure you are all doing well. Miss you guys so much though!!!!
This channel was one of the reasons why I started my own channel - Learn Chinese with Jessie, where I'm trying to share things about China or Chinese culture/languages/people, even a small step could count I believe.
Just wanna say thank you to you guys and I'm really really glad to have you back.
I haven't unsubcribed the channel through many years and have waited for your comback
That's some old school CZcams here.
I never thought this return Wil be real 🥰🥰😘
neither did i
Wow oh wow! I've missed this channel so much! I'm so glad to hear that you've been doing well. I think I was just a wee bitty teenager when I first became obsessed with this channel. You, Dan, Mike, etc. were addressing issues Asians faced way before people started becoming more aware about Asian hate. Your channel helped me learn about my family's culture and feel not ashamed about being Asian way before Kpop, Kdrama, Chinese bl novels, etc. became popular. Yall were putting yourself out there as the front faces of CZcams channels way before we started seeing more Asian actors in American films. It's so incredible what you all did.
I've changed so much ever since I first started watching this channel. I'm about to graduate college. I've gotten into powerlifting and dancing which I never thought I would have ever done. I've taken acting classes which I would have never had the gut to do when I first started watching this channel. I am no longer the lone kid who doesn't really have friends. This past year during quarantine, I've developed a better relationship with my own body physically and mentally. I've slowly learned to prioritize myself over pleasing other people. I got involved in a production of short film about Chinese immigrants.
I just want to thank you all so much for what you do. This channel really helped me during some of my darkest periods. The skits, the food, and the teaching. This channel never failed to put a smile on my face even if I have had the shittiest day. Thank you so much!!! No words can really express how I feel.
I see has been in touch with our Buddhist spiritual traditions.
May the Buddha blesses all of us with His wisdom and guidance for a better life.
This was the first Asian CZcams channel that I subscribed to.
That was back almost 4 years ago.
It is great that Carmen is back, Yay!
Welcome back! 欢迎回来! When I first started studying Chinese 3.5 years ago, this CZcams channel was one of the first I subscribed to in order to learn Chinese and learn about Chinese culture! Thank you so much for all hard hard work! I’m looking forward to what the future holds for this channel!
P.S. I’m learning Mandarin and Japanese primarily, but I find your Cantonese content interesting! I’m starting to study that a bit as well! 😊
Glad Carmen is back, 2021 is looking great!
I hope 2021 gets better too!
Omg!!!!! I missed this so much! So glad came up on my subscription videos! Loved all the videos you and Dan did over the years!
Thankyou for considering the watchers, can't wait to see new content
Loved this channel when it was active, learning about Chinese culture was awesome and seeing all that amazing food I've never tried. Cool to see you're back again!
I'm native Japanese but like this channel. How nice of your coming back!
I never thought you'd return but I'm happy to see you back. Hope you stay for a while.
great start to a (happy) new year & welcome back!
I recently discovered this channel and as soon as I found your channel you are back! I am so happy to see you are doing great and welcome back! I love you contents so much and I look forward to see more content! You are amazing!
It’s great to see y’all again 👍👍👍👍👏👏
I MISS THIS SHOW!! I remember watching your old videos with my Asian Parents and loving them.
WELCOME BACK!
yess! finally back! so happy and excited!
Omg i am so happy to hear back from you guys!!!🤗 it really inspired me to make chinese folklore painting and understand more inside or the culture and life lessons. I'm really heavily grateful and glad to see this channel return❤ sending much love
That’s so great! Your paintings sound lovely. Happy Chinese New Year!
OMG I cried when watching this video, I just realized this channel has come back, i still remember in 2014 I start to watch off the Great Wall when I come to New Zealand to study. I was all by myself and don't really have friends back then, by watching off the great Wall I feel connect to Chinese people overseas. I was so sad when you guys stop updating. Thank you for bringing the greatest memories back from the time I just started to watch CZcams
A good sign! A channel from my childhood peaking back now. God we grew up
I think I’m about to cry. This channel was inactive for so long and now seeing it back makes me so happy. I’m first generation born Chinese in the United States so it was nice watching videos about my family’s culture. Even though this channel wasn’t active for a while I still watch the old videos with my two year old son. I am so happy and looking forward to the new content on this channel
Oh oh oh! I remember learning so much through this channel. I still rememeber the practical dim sum guide and the funny skit one! Those were the good times. ❤❤❤❤❤
I missed you! You were the highlight of Off the Great Wall. When I found your cooking channel, I was ecstatic.
YOU'RE ALIVE 😭
I know right?? :P
This is a nice treat for staying subscribed to this channel. The last time video got posted, I still wasn't even a senior in high school.
No joke, I check this channel page once in a while to see if there are any new videos, and this came in my recommendation today. So happy that you are coming back!
Hi Carmen! Great to see you back! Yes... much has happened in 8 years... you and your team had much to do re: my time in China. Great memories for sure! I look forward to watching your channel... B.
Carmen 看到你實在太高興了!非常喜歡你和 Dan 從前的短片,經常會翻看。你 keep 得非常好,看上去和 25 歲時沒有大分別。期待你和 Dan 的搞笑短片。 Mr. Wong from Hong Kong
Appreciate your kind words! 多謝曬!
So glad you're back! I just randomly decided to see some old OtGW vids and am very happy to see you're back. Now just need Ben and Dan for the Ben'dan jokes and it'll be perfect :P
Glad you're doing well. I saw in a newer video you're pregnant now. Congratulations!
As for me, I've changed jobs during the pandemic, which was stressful, but in the end better for me. And I'm getting more into drawing and painting. I'm also forcing myself to move more, to shed those pandemic pounds.
Looking forward to seeing your new videos. I'm glad you're back ^_^
I missed this channel and the content! Welcome back❤️
Omg I've been waiting for this for forever so glad they're back!!
Great to see this back after all these years. You guys inspired me to keep learning Chinese and its culture and yep I can now speak Mandarin.
Welcome back Carmen! Big fan of Kind of Cooking too!
So glad to see you back! ❤
I truly love(d) the video you did of Chinese New Year’s Greetings and how you say everything both in Mandarin and Cantonese. I watch it OFTEN! I am learning Mandarin with a tutor via Italki, but these You Tube videos from you and other Mandarin speakers are invaluable and I thank you! 謝謝 -
Missed you too Carmen, welcome back!
Welcome back! Hope to see more videos soon!
Happy to see you are back!!!
Yay, you guys have come back!!!!!
Wow, I missed you guys! I used to watch all the time and I just remembered this channel existed last month. I'm glad I decided to stay subscribed.
So glad you guys are back
Glad to see the great return!!!
This is so sweet. I'm so glad you're back =)
Hello! What I've been doing during the pandemic is exploring different places and cultures via CZcams. I found OTGW, which quickly became a favorite. I love the humor, learning about Asian families in America, and the positive loving nature of each video. I've been sad that the channel is no longer active, so HELLO! Nice to see you, today! I'd love to see what many of the old crew are doing these days. Thanks for posting!
Nice to meet you! I'm surprised people are still subscribing despite the channel being inactive for so long.
I'm so happy you're back carmen i missed you
I started watching Off The Great Wall specifically because of you! So glad you’re back
Oh wow one of my favourite channels is back! I am so happy!! 😊
Omg welcome back! I like I love you guys💫💫💫 I met my twin flame and start my spiritual accession. This year also brought me a lot of self love awareness 🌼
This sounds amazing!~ Good on ya! I did a lot of soul searching too... and that's kinda why I'm back. 😊

OMG CARMEN!!! I've missed you and the rest of the OTGW gang so much!! All my memories of watching OTGW just came flooding back when I saw you upload this video. I can't wait to see what you'll do with this channel and hopefully you can reunite with the rest of the OTGW gang :)
can't believe it's been YEARS since i came upon your channel and also have been following Mikey since this channel, that's WILD
This makes me so happy I could cry
Hi carmen. Im so happy to see you again in this channel. Keep doing videos
Yes! I've been hoping this channel would come back
I've missed you Carmen! I first started watching you years ago when I was doing my Masters Degree and the majority of my cohort (group of grad students who start at the same time) was Chinese, along with a few Koreans, Taiwanese, and Japanese, and your channel really helped me quickly learn about their culture and bond with them. Still some of my best friends all these years later. So glad to see you're back.
So happy to hear that the channel helped you foster relationships!
You make me so happy!
OMG! You're back!! I miss your content so much!! So glad you are back!:)
Awesome love that you are back 😀
Lately I have (re) watched some of the old videos, but they made me so happy 🤭
im so happy to see you again, im a autistic adult with a condition similar to ptsd, youtube is a great escape for me and i loved watching a lot of your videos im from the uk so i was happy to learn new things
i was worried about the sudden disappearance i am happy to know your ok, i dont realy understand a lot of social media besides facebook so i wouldn't know how to have looked you up since the channel stopping
So glad you enjoy our content! I kept a pretty low profile online before intentionally but now I feel like I should connect with all of you again. Hope to see you around :)
Welcome back!!!
This was one of my main sources of entertainment in elementary school! Wow can’t believe I’m graduating high school, revisiting the lovely moments and now living less than 30 minutes away (no exact location obvi😂)from my childhood favourites 😅 So glad you’re back looking forward to new and better stuff!!
I am so glad you are back
Wow!! This is awesome news. OTGW was my fav channel until it fell into the Great Abyss. I remember coming across it accidentally back in 2013 while doing a search for NTD TV. Love the cooking channel too; although I'm no chef, am able to pick up helpful hints. See ya on the TUBE! 👍👍👍
Welcome back!!!! ❤️❤️
OMG. I miss you guys so much! It's unbelievable how many years it's been. Thanks for your comeback.
Good to see you again! During the pandemic, I learned a lot about the ccp because I wanted to understand how something like this could happen. I didn't know anything about chinese culture at the time, but as I watched more videos about china, I realized how amazing the country really is! I've been watching your videos (and mikey's) to understand more about chinese culture and perspective, and it's been very informative. I'm looking forward to your future videos!
Yes! This is such a good time to educate yourself. Chinese culture is so profound I hope to talk about it on the channel as well. Let me know what you would like to see!
Being Mandarin teacher, this channel is help me so much when I want to explains some topics to my students since the explanation is using English and easy to understand. Thank you for coming back here and hope can see other interesting videos 😘🥰
Missed this channel SOOOO much! Hope the channel is back for good 🙏
Used to watch otgw when I was younger! Glad Carmen is back!!❤️
Carmen!! Welcome back!
I have been watching your videos since I was a kid .... I amso happy you came back...

OMG!!! Missed this channel and all the great canto centric videos!
I can’t believe you’re all back! ITS BEEN SO LONG!
Yay!!! You’re back😃
