Hey Pirates, today marks the channel’s first anniversary. I wondered how to make this day special and created something personal to share with you guys. I'm also holding my first live event on 7/30 @ 8 PM PT. Leave your questions in the comments below, and I'll try my best to answer them! 👑
Thank you for sharing your story Pirate King.
remember bro never give up on your goals. everyone can do it.
chinese quote is epic. working hard 100 years. never fails to make his family rich
I have a question! Where are you working at now haha!
What is your advice for someone in their early 20s to work towards Software Engineering?
Hey Pirates, CMU is not a well-known university in South Korea. Also, the job market there was brutal with youth unemployment rate going over 12% at one point.
Hey Daniel. I graduated from Harvey Mudd College and I also had a lot of struggles in Korea. (If anything, HMC is even lesser known) We should connect. I'm guessing we're similar in age based on your timeline and have a lot of similarities to talk about. I also plan to make CZcams and maybe we could be collaborators.
8:04 “In retrospect, I never gave up. No matter where I was, I always strived to be better than who I was yesterday”
You are such an inspiration, thank you 🙏🏻😊
See your $360k offer is well earned and deserved it’s crazy you went to Carnegie Mellon but companies where not snatching you straight out of school but still i love your journey I’m starting mine now i graduate in 2023 and pray for success
This is encouraging. Thank you, and I am glad you are growing in your career as well as in music and other areas of life. It's nice that you have had determination and have achieved this much so far. Keep believing in yourself.
Such an inspiring story! I started my career path more smoothly and early than others but through this path, I changed my direction and had to stop to look for my own way many times. Now I am still walking on the way that I am creating by myself and do not know if I know where is my final destination. Sometimes i doubt it, sometimes I strongly feel determined. However, I still keep trying and trying to find my place where I could finally settle down
That's sooooooo good and inspiring, I never thought you went through such a long journey with challenges! Really awesome video man!
I loved this video so much! You never gave up, always kept pushing on! I am about to start college for computer science in software engineering, I am so nervous but since a kid I’ve always wanted to code and create things with technology. I’m currently a full time truck driver and going to be going to school for computer science . It’s videos like yours and my self driven motivation that keep me going. Thank you so much !
This is inspiring😭 never thought you've gone through a lot of hardships. Thanks for sharing this story of yours with us!!❤❤
I found your channel a few months back in the weirdest way, but your eagerness to grow further has kept me watching your videos over and over.
This was a great one.
Thanks for your video!!! I couldn't believe that you experience these difficulties, at the beginning I thought that you might get lots of offers after graduations, since I feel that you probably have strong abilities in CS. Until now, I know that not only me faced lots of obstacles about finding a job.
Life is hard, let's fighting to overcome obstacles!
I saw watched this on Bilili and came back there to watch it on CZcams.
The flow and speed of the video is very good and the entire journey was very sincere.
I loved the ending because it linked everything up and ended with a good message.
Thank you, Happy Lunar New Year! 🎉
Wow. Didn’t expect a CMU student struggled so hard to get a SDE position. Your hard work pays off anyway. Congratulation.
So true
Job hunting is a whole different world than school
Lovely man!!! I used to think that I'm the only one who is so late in life but this video gave me hope! Thank you for being so honest and authentic about your journey. Last but not the least, m gonna make leetcode my best friend other than cursing as we are in a profession which needs at least 3-6 months to even think about interviewing. Wish you great luck and success!!
omg what a beautiful and inspiring video! I was scrolling my youtube and started to see this video.. and now I'm crying lol. thanks for keep going with yout channel, and cheers to u wife for motivating u to create this channel. cheers from brazil.
This is an incredibly inspiring journey! Thanks for sharing and cheers to even more growth for the future!
Thank you for making this video. I'm around your age (3-4 years younger) and I started my coding journey in 2018 eventually landing a job in jan of 2020 (at 28 years old). I'm definitely on the older side and started my career later compared to my co-workers. This video helped me remember the good and the bad times along the way. I also had many rejection and failures, but like you, I'm here now doing what I love.
Are you self taught ? How did you manage to learn to code and get a job in 2 years ?
I am going through the journey as well, currently 23. Any advice would be greatly appreciated!
@@harrisonliang326 same here, 23 as well! Let me know if you're keen in linking up Harrison, would be great journeying along the same technical route with someone motivated to grow as well! :)
@@bthk2151 Hey guys. same here! 23 and learning frontend coding now. Hopefully we all will be at a much better place in 6 months! All the best!
@@splearn6328 If any of you are keen on linking up, we can form a discord server to focus on honing our skills together, just let me know! 😀
Thank you for sharing this. I started my journey at 24, I always wanted to code and never really did it for one reason or another. Now I am making money I never thought of making and having fun in a job I love. Thank you for sharing PK. Much love ❤
As always, fantastic video! This video reminded me that hard work and persistence always get you to the place you want to be. Thank you for sharing.
Thank you for sharing! Your story is so inspiring🥺 I have similar experiences; study and work abroad for years, and struggling with learning Japanese and Korean.
Thank you for sharing! It’s very motivating and very happy to see where u r at now!
I came across this video when I was feeling pressured by my programming work. Thank you so much for your honest sharing.
Thank you for this brilliant narration of your career. It's so comforting to know that most, if not all, roads to success are not linear. Thank you for sharing this inspirational story, Daniel! 🥺
persistence is key man this was such an inspiration!! thanks for sharing
Thank you for sharing. I myself just made switch career from a mechanic to being a Full Stack guy. I'm already struggling not just the job but trying to fit in with the company but seeing your vid, it ok to struggle but dont give up.
Man, your journey is so wonderful. And your motive inspired me a lot!!
Thanks for this video!!
Wow. This detailed explanation gives so much more understanding of who you are-especially with the many failures and rejections you experienced.
On the surface level, I had always thought that with a degree from CMU, your career was nothing but smooth. Watching how you got rejected from so many companies in Korea was shocking.
Nice ending 👍🏻 Now you can freely roam the vast sea of network. Don’t know if all your subs would be able to fit on your boat 🤣🤣
Thank you for this video! I was unmotivated to go to my muay thai training, and I wanted to study one more hour. But actually, those activities like exercising, learning a new language, playing a new instrument and reading are actually very important as well. If we rely ONLY in the coding It can be bad for our mental health
As an incoming CMU freshman, this video is so inspiring. That last part really resonated with me! Congratulations on being where you are today.
Whole video was so beautifully put! Loved every second of it. You've such an inspiring story!
Awesome video! Needed that, thank you. Love from Spain ❤️
Proud of you! Love your content, keep up the great work - you’re helping a lot of people here!!
Wow so realistic and made me in awe and realize that I can't do everything in a year, rushing everything overthinking future and not facing the today.... you inspired me to move again! Now I'm going back to my coding grind! same goal as you, going to japan and do jrpg video game development. I'm thankful that I have seen this video right now because i'm in deepsht depression not knowing but what to do.. Thank you!
This video gave me nothing but sheer inspiration and towards the end I got goosebumps man. Love it! Hope to see your CZcams channel grow incredibly.
Truly inspirational, man!
Thank you for making this video~ I've also just started my journey as a web developer lately at the age of 28, and watching your video motivates me to strive to be a better developer 💪🏼
same here i started 3 days after turning 28. good look man!
What an amazing journey!
Keep going pirate, and keep the videos coming!
Thank you for sharing your story. And every part of your journey, this is encouraging
한국에서 개발중인 6년차인데 정말 영감을 많이 받았네요. 정말 하고싶은일을 해보는게 말처럼 쉬운일이 아닌데, 정말 멋있는것 같습니다.
세상을 보는 식견을 틔워주는 영상이네요. 좋은 영상 감사합니다.
This video really inspires me to keep hustling and learning!! Thank you Pirate King!
Dan. This is inspirational. Thanks for sharing your life experiences
Thanks for the video, quite inspiring, I haven't reached your heights yet, but in my country of Moldova I can say that I attained success also with a slow start and within 11 years. And the name of the road is also persistence, always learning, always moving forward, hopefully one day I can work for a company known globally!
Thanks for sharing, it's nice to know that there are people out there that share the same kind of experience. Wishing you further success and ofc happiness :)
This is so inspiring! I admire your determination. Studying kanji is really THAT hard but you passed the N1 test. For a non-native speaker, that is amazing! I remember memorizing just 200 kanji characters and it was head-splitting. Thank you for sharing your story! I'm glad that I happen to see this before my job interview next week.
Thank you Pirate King, you're clearly a man who puts principles before shiny things, a man of virtue. Not only do you have a great mind, but perhaps more importantly, you have good heart and personality. Those around you are fortunate to have someone of resolute character about them. Thank you for sharing ❤️
I work as a product manager at a tech company and I started reading one piece two weeks ago bc of you!
Thank you so much for this video. It gives me the motivation to keep purchasing the things I always want to do. Maybe my journey will not be easy at the beginning. But still, I will figure it out.
wow this video is simply amazing not gonna lie you should be a voice over narrator. Your voice is just so calming and i loved the quote in the end as well as the one piece references. I hope i get to be like you one day and make my family proud. Have a good one!
I'm so glad to find this video today.
You are awesome and Thank you!!!
Thanks for your video, it was really inspiring. I have nothing to complain about, I got a FAANG offer straight out of univerisity and started my career pretty good (just 1 YOE), but this got me into some kind of perfectionism that makes me afraid of making a mistake along the way. Seeing your discipline and comebacks has inspired me to worry less and enjoy more, even if I make mistakes I'm young to make comebacks with discipline if that's what I want.
I don't know any One piece quote so I will just say keep your good work in youtube and drawing smiles in our faces :)
Soo inspirational!! Thank u for posting this🙌❤️❤️
Inspiring bro. Thank you for sharing your journey so far
Thank you so much for the sharing! Your video really inspire me a lot to greater efforts to become a software engineer. Although I am 30 this year, I won't give up on my dream to become a successful software engineer like you in one day. For me, it's never too late to start a new thing! Thank you.
Wow you gave me motivation in the sense to prepare myself I really don’t know the path to take and where I could really start implying things from what I learn but I know that perseverance is one key that I will keep with me.
I’m not a computer science person but your journey inspires me a lot. Thanks for sharing!
I love your story! Thanks for sharing, it’s inspiring and reassuring
Wow amazing! Thanks for sharing :)
Nice one bro. So inspiring for me at phase that dont know where to go right now.
Watching this after your gangsta video about rejecting google's offer and it really purts things into perspective - you are the man brother - thank you for showing us that life and the dev career is not always as smooth as everyone makes it seem like on youtube
LFG Pirate! You inspired me and many others to venture in this field and to never give up. Thank you! 💪💪
Keep making awesome and authentic content like this. Much respect!
Your life journey is really motivating. it gives me a goosebumps. I always like you video's it give me a knowledge and fun. Keep stay tune with us like this. Thank you very much.
I really like how you include the happy milestones/moments with your wife in your video, all around a fantastic video. Thankyou
More power to you, hero!! 🌻💜
This is so motivational and knowledgeable !!!! love your content keep it up bro ❤❤❤
Thank you for this It's really inspiring, as someone that was suffering from burnout and not seeing myself growing for months this has been uplifting I feel my spirit alive now thank you for sharing this.
Muito foda, parabéns pela jornada!.
bro, you have great skills of story-telling, loved your channel.
Hey Daniel! Thank you so much for sharing your honest life journey with us. I relate to you on many things. I have done my BS and MS in South Korea and doing my Ph.D. in Japan right now. I am from neither of these countries. I agree with you, kanji learning is so 大変w especially for a person like me from non-kanji country. All my studies are about management engineering but I am trying to completely change my career and pursue a software engineering career from zero at age 32. I will probably land my first job at 35 if it magically happens haha. I have this crazy unrealistic fantasy at this old age. I am not sure I will reach my goal or not but it is just happy to see someone like you succeed in life and it gives me inspiration somehow.
This is really inspiring. Thanks for sharing your story.
such a great video.. This video shows how keeping patience can lead one to his/her destination than they can ever imagine...
Oh my god , such an awesome video .finally found my favorite CZcamsr I can relate too. Here I was frickin out because my code camp starts in 3 months. This video got me fired up dude. I thought your channel name was weird. I'm a huge one piece fan. Omg how did I not see that. All my friends are software engineers and cyber security.that was such a great video. Keep going and making content buddy. People like me are always searching for someone like you. Your fellow Nakama.
Welcome aboard :)
Thank you for making this amazing video, it really hit home with your own story.
This is inspiring. Thanks, I needed this currently in school and have two years left and have been rejected every time I had an interview.
so cool bro, i hope you can make more great video and great work on your company as well in the future
Thank you for making this video, it's crazy seeing someone who I see as so successful have problems, but also inspiring!
Your story is inspiring. I feel like crying, what an hard work and struggle you have done and achieved success..
Man what a journey! Time really flies very fast. I learned a lot from you, failing is just a part of the adventure.
Loved the video and the heart you put into it. Respect
God bless you! Let's go! Thanks for sharing
Truly amazing & inspiring...would follow your videos for positive energy ✨️ 👏
This was a great and inspirational video :) got the success and a person to share it all with congrats
Thank you for the energy
I have to say that I am very appreciate because you made this video. I was also in the same difficult situation. This video have inspired me a lot.
This is beautiful and encouraging ❤
Man I was feeling down for some things going with my life , but after watching video and your life story I realized my pains are petty , I have gotta long way ahead of me , thank you so much for making this much needed video for me .🫡🫡🫡❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️love you loads ❤️❤️❤️
Never expected that a person could grow so considerably after leaving school. The manner you handle challenges, which appear overwhelming to me as a college student, shows us great hope in life. Thank you=。=
Your story is so moving. I'll strive to be more determined as well 🙏
after watching this video i can’t help but feel better. you went through so much and endured many lifestyle changes to achieve the level of success that you have today, this shit is inspiring
This is the most inspiring video I have ever seen :") respect man
Such an inspiring video! Love this!!
Love your channel dawg ❤
Such a great video pirate, I can relate, haven't done it in coding (which really has been my struggle) but done it in tech support, I've grown that much only because my efforts and dedication, wish salaries were that good here in Costa Rica but I make plenty to support my family and my wife.
On a site note, I cannot decide - your resemblance to L from death note and Kojima-San is intriguing jaja.
XD
Your story is inspiring.Thank you
Thank you for sharing your story. It is inspiring and motivational!
Hi, I have been following you for quite some time. You really inspire me. I am two months to my 28th birthday . A masters in finance degree holder and working in the finance sector. I have been considering a change for a very long time. Married with a baby less than a year old but I am greatly inspired by your video. I know I am already old to switch but hope to comment in a few years later to let you know I have been successful in making a switch to be a software engineer. Watch out for my comment in the years to come
you're my role model and that's why I'm currently working my way to become a software engineer :)
You are one of the most inspiring people I know in the world, and I planned to follow in a similar footstep to yours prior to this video, only without the constant traveling. Here’s a question I want to ask: you stated that you originally wanted to become a game director. How did you change to decide to become a back-end software developer? I actually wanted to become a video game designer, like you, but seeing this, I would like to know if my interest might change as well, and understand a bit better beforehand, as I am still very young and inexperienced (I’m only an incoming high school sophomore as of right now)
Very inspiring story...thanks for sharing bro :)
대단하십니다... 현재 한국에서 공대를 다니는 학생인데 저도 제 목표를 길게 세워서 부지런히 나아가야 겠네요 ㅎㅎ.. 덕분에 용기 얻고 갑니다 감사합니다!
wow, awesome video and very motivating for me. Thank you! Congrats on your growth btw (:
You are so incredible man, thank you for making this beautiful video. Hope and determination can move seas, and yours moved my heart.
