Brazilians not usually separate their relationships in different niches like *family / work's friends / college's friends / neighbors / dates...* people normally try to get all this together, specially to the social events.
In the dating situation, the person you're dating have to go to the family events, like birthday parties and sunday's barbecue, to your friends meeting... and the same for you. If we like this person we want the people we love to like them too and vice versa. ☺️
Other thing that's important to say is that mostly brazilian parents are super friendly to your bf/gf and sometimes keep friends with them even if you break up 😅
Resumiu bem
As an American, i find this very useful for safety reasons. I assume this helps discourage abusive situations. But idk, im an.outsider to this particular custom.
@@loryndabenson2118 for sure it does! It didn't happen to me, but I've heard stories here of abusive relationships that were stopped thanks to the parents that noticed something was going wrong.
@@chichisancanal ❤️😲 wow glad to hear that then. I may take this approach when i have a teen child that's ready to start dating. My parents didn't want me to date like at all, ever so any relationship i had i had to keep secret. Or they'd just yell at me to break up with them. No reason just i wasn't allowed to date. You could see how having to sneak date someone could lead to potentially very dangerous situations especially for a teen girl. I'd rather take this more involved approach cuz teens are gonna do what they want and I'd rather have open honest relationship so i can still help protect my child. Any sorry for long winded reply. Thank you. Have a wonderful rest of your day.
@@loryndabenson2118 I think that's precisely why Brazilian parents "watch" their children in a friendly way. Keeping track of your son or daughter's relationship allows you to see if everything is ok, if he is a nice person or not.
I wish all of the US seemed to be as clean as Joy has experienced. People who come to NYC, beware that people spit anywhere! In the train car, on the train platform, in the bus… I miss how clean Seoul is.
Wierd how it only got progressivly dirty and dangerous after 1964........
@@eternalptgmx Are you talking about the italian mafioso and irish gangs? Guess what they aren't considered white in that time period. only northern europeans besides the irish were considered white definitely not italians, fonzi was considered a "token" character in the 50s on happy days. Kind of weird how the further back you go the MORE racist countries get. You should look up sir fredrick douglas, a black man who wrote on how the english treated the irish in the early 20th century. the whole concept of every european being white came about in the 1990s, pushed by hollywood so they would have a clear cut enemy, if you ask a random american to tell the diffrence between someone of irish or norweigen descent, most can't tell. so they had to make every eruopean "white" even though at NO point in history was europe ever united saying oh yea we love all europeans from the volga river to the west coasts or ireland and spain! We're all white brothers guys! Check out films from before the 60's with sex love rock and roll and drugs. back when the catholic league decided the film's ratings, not the MPAA. youll see plenty of people calling irish and italians less than people. But considering the average person from ANY country only takes history as a requirement, it's not surprising that you lack knowledge. Even the KKK killed not just negros surprise surprise! But catholics as well! now tell me which two european groups did i just mention that were european but CATHOLIC? Oh yeah the irish and italians. America was racist to anyone who was not a "WASP" (White American Southern Protestant.).

Love how much Hoseung tries to talk in English! It’s pretty good! He should be proud of himself!!
Actually in Brazil before people start to call themselves a "couple" there's usually a lot of whater under the bridge.
People go out, meet each other and keep going on dates, even hooking up, for months even, until one of the parts says "Are we a couple?" Or "do you wanna be my boy/girlfriend?". So by the time your a couple you actually know the other person for quite a while.
Even in social situation, people invite someone their "Seeing" at the time, and people are like "are you guys in a relationship? No, we're just knowing eche other".
So to be a couple both parts need to be aware of it, like someone needs to literally ask for it, other wise you guys are not exclusive.
tal cual, en argentina es asi tambien... mas que nada los ultimos años. cuando yo era mas joven las cosas eran un poco mas formales mas pronto. ademas aca es super comun que las parejas se engañen, diria que el 90% de las parejas lo hacen, o mas...
American food service always gives as much ice as possible in any beverage not made to be hot. The more ice in the drink, the less product they use. Ice machines use electric to make the ice, but when you're monthly electric bill is as high as a restaurants, it's not noticeable. It is also against the law not to provide cold water to anyone who asks for it, so long as business is running as usual.
Mines always gives a little bit of ice😩
Yes they want to increase profits
I have noticed in the last year that I must ASK for extra ice most of the time. Being a spoiled southern American, I want my ICED tea really, really cold. Room temp anything is not so good to me, give it to me hot for hot and iced for cold
When going to fast food places, because they do this so often where they over fill with ice, I ask for light ice, because more product for me and I just generally don't like when I have too much ice period, even at home I only put a cube or two into my cups.
I'm french, i've been in many cities in my country and I have NEVER seen any mixed common shower room for public swimming pool.
I was a bit confused we she said that.
Mais vraiment elles sortent d'où les douches mixtes là mdrrrrr
Dans mon village c'est le cas
Thinking the same thing the way she worded that was weird never saw that in French
J'y étais tout juste la semaine dernière à Paris 🤣
If I just heard the Brazilian speaking I would assume she was American.
same!
I think I could say that here in the Philippines, it's also common to introduce a person to your family during the early days of dating, similarly to Brazil. Most of the time, it's more of like gaining the trust of the family or asking the family whether he/she could date the child from the said family and actually build relationship with the parents as well (but as expected, this is also difficult in breaking up, it's like breaking up with your partner's family too). Though I also understand it from the viewpoint in Korea or States. It's just cool to see the differences too! anyway, I enjoyed today's video as well PD님! ♡
I am Brazilian and I love hugs. In Brazil you must hug, and give a kiss on the cheek(or two)
I'm brazilian and that's true
It depedends on the region
Its not true.
Acho que no Brasil a coisa do gelo, de forma geral, não se faz muito necessária porque os estabelecimentos tendem (ou pelo menos tentam) a deixar as bebidas o mais geladas possível. Acho que pra sucos e drinks é mais comum, porque se vai derretendo não muda demais o sabor da bebida, mas pra refrigerantes fica complicado.
Lembrei que muito gringo estranha que a gente não seja muito adeptos do café gelado, e mesmo sendo a maior parte do tempo muito quente a gente mesmo durante o dia beba café quente. É tipo a situação do gelo mesmo no inverno.
I think that in Brazil the ice thing, in general, is not very necessary because establishments tend (or at least try) to keep drinks as cold as possible. I think it's more common for juices and drinks, because if it melts it doesn't change the flavor of the drink too much, but for soft drinks it gets complicated. I remembered that many foreigners find it strange that we are not very fond of iced coffee, and even though most of the time it is very hot, we drink hot coffee even during the day. It's like the ice situation even in winter.
Na verdade os restaurantes brasileiros também tem água de graça, mas diferente desses países que oferecem, no Brasil você tem que pedir a "água da casa" ☺️
Depende do Estado/Cidade, pois não são todos os estados/cidades que tem essa lei aplicada "sobre a garantia da agua da casa".
Vdd
Love Hoseung 's English ❤️ sweet as always
These are really wonderful little videos. Helping us all learn about each other. Thanks!
Ana is a bit out of date, here in Rio de Janeiro and in São Paulo, you do have the right to ask for water for free, you just have to order "filtered water" or "house water" (água da casa), which would be an expression for a glass of water from that estabilishment, I do that everywhere for plenty of years already, probably more than 5 years, but that's because brazilians, mostly, weren't aware of that law, but it does exists ever since 1995, when it was approved.
When me and my friends go to the bar around here the first thing we ask is filtered water, so usually they already come with a full jar and a few glasses.
Yes, but not all the States. Like Rio and São Paulo has this law but all them.
Essa lei não foi feita em todos os Estados/Cidades, então depende muito disso também.
@@groisas Pode ser! Por isso que no meu comentário eu comecei com "Here in Rio de Janeiro and in São Paulo"!
I forgot her name but the French woman is very pretty :)
Actually everyone looks good tbh (Even you, random person reading this comment)
Elle s'appelle Mélodie (like a melody) 😊
@@boubas9273 that’s a really pretty name
@@Jupiter-ng1yi oui Mélodie est un très joli prénom
The swim shower is for removing the chlorine similar to the showers that you will see at some beached to rid you of the sea salt.
I've never tried asking for water in restaurants, but in some smaller cities here in Brazil (in the Northeast, not sure if it goes in the other states) it's not uncommon to get free coffee. Not necessarily in restaurants, sometimes in gas stations and stores. Though I must say it's a dying habit, some 15 years ago you'd get offered coffee anywhere you'd go.
Loved this. As a British person the idea of anyone spitting anywhere in public is horrendous 😬. We sometimes get teenagers who are trying to be cool doing it in the street, but adults don't spit at all. That's one I would struggle with abroad!!
Hoseung looks so cute!
Fun episode :) Great synergy with the guests
Joy’s skin is giving what it needs to give!! I can’t get over his glow
1:50 okay im french and I’ll explain that. They don’t shower together at all! In some places they’re is shower for men and women but it’s like closed shower, one shower for one person. But it’s more common to have shower for men and shower for women separate. Idk where she used to live in France but in France it’s not like that at all
Parfaitement d'accord avec ce commentaire, J'ai été vraiment surprise en entendant son explication. J'ai fait de la natation pendant plus de 10 ans et je n'ai jamais vu une piscine avec des douches commune pour les hommes et les femmes. Dans toutes les piscines où je suis allée les douches étaient séparées. Les seules douches communes que j'ai pu voir ce sont celles qui sont au bord de la mer/sur la plage et qui servent principalement à enlever le sable.
She never say that we were all naked in a shower together 😃 In France, in some public pools, there is 2 types of showers : the private and separate showers for 1 person and the common showers for everyone but like she said you don’t take off your swimsuit in these ones.
Next video should be Joy & Hoseung trying brazilian waxing!
😂😂😂
Noooo
Let’s get it
I think it's funny that foreigners call it "Brazilian waxing", because here in Brazil we call it "Indian waxing" because it was in India that it came

Really joyfull video and yes it is true what said about Greece 🤣🤷 ( the gesture that the brazilian girl talked about ).
Hoseung great as always 🫰
I want to hang out with Joy, he has such a cool vibe! 🤗
Aww thank you❤️
@@JoytvOfficial 😍😍😍
I love these videos and this cast!
*5:08** She absolutely says bullsh.t, the tap water is NOT filtered* 🤦🏼♂😂
*(and the word for carafe is the same in English...)*
I think Melodie looks a lot like Meghan Markle. She's stunning. Joy is gorgeous as well, I just don't have a celebrity to compare her to. And the boys are very handsome and extremely charismatic. I really like this quartet. Also, I really like my country(America) being represented by someone who is so open-minded, funny, and fashion forward:)
Lol what? They look nothing alike..
@@theekatspajamas I thought her smile looked similar. Eyes are different. Just an opinion. She's very pretty either way:)
@@jpeopolis thanks so much for your kind words 🙏🥺 (I'm Mélodie haha!). And idk why but you're maybe the 4th person to say that, my grandma is for instance obsessed abt Meghan as she thinks we look a bit similar 😅
@@mjcouple3120 I think part is that you come across so elegant. Regal, even. Not pretentious, just effortlessly-classy.
Also, it's clear you're a very erudite individual. Total package, girl. I really want to hate you but I can't because you're so sweet;)
@@jpeopolis 🥺🙏🥺 You're amazing, such an Angel ! Thanks so much 🧡
I like this panel of 4 with Hoseung 💙
i think in brazil it’s comfortable to introduce a partner to your family because people here usually have a “meeting period”, like having a affair with no much compromise, just knowing each other (sometimes very deeply 🍑🍌), where normally only the closest friends knows about. and when the couple feels like it works, then the “real” thing (which is to introduce to the family and assume it publicly, like posting photos and stuff lol) begins
Dude really is the male version of Moonbyul ngl even the thumbnail
loved this group!
Thanks guys it was very interesting!
I've never dated in my life but my mom and dad always say that if one day I start dating I have to introduce him to them or else no dating but I understand them because I'm just worried about who I'm going to be dating, if the person is a good person or not, because parents know when it's not right
Thats how it is in the Most Latin Americans family.
@@raquelfigueroa5539 Yes
Brasil :) 🇧🇷♥️
Nice quartet! Bring'em back again!
In the US, it all depends on the family dynamic as to when someone is introduced to family. Like Brazil...we want to know what kind of person our loved one is seeing, and whether or not they are a threat or danger to them. Most meetings will take place at a public place, or event...but many happen at home events, as well...such as 4th of July BBQs or something. In southern culture (old-fashioned values, still), it is a requirement for the boy/man to come to the door, introduce himself to dad (who answers the door) and chat with each other (sus each other up) as the girl continues to ready herself for the date. I'm sure you've heard of the proverbial daddy sitting on the porch in his rocking chair with a double barrel shotgun, asking, "What time did you say you were bringing her home? Don't be late. I'll be waiting.". lol And to ask the father for the girl's hand in marriage (permission) BEFORE he proposes to the girl. Also, if your loved one isn't bringing their date around, it is cause for concern...that there is a reason they're not...because they KNOW that their family would NOT APPROVE. However, with the number of households without fathers, this is becoming less common. However, there are still mom's that wear those daddy boots and will sit in that same chair, same shotgun, and attitude when it comes to their kids and who they're dating.
Bring Ana more often!!
the Singapore one is very true. i know this because i lived there for a year. it also explains why the streets are really clean compared to say Vancouver (im using Vancouver as an example because i there)
I loved this video!!!❤❤❤❤🇧🇷🇧🇷
My ex-wife lived with her father when we started dating, so when I went to pick her up for our 1st date, I met him also, and more or less saw him any time I went to take her on a date. The rest of her family lived out of state, though they eventually moved to be with the dad after his contract job became full time, so then I started seeing them when I'd go get her also.
My current wife lived on her own when we began dating, but on the night of our 1st date she was attending a family gathering at her parents' home in the afternoon, so I picked her up there and met her whole family, though I didn't see any of them again until after we got engaged.
About the axing part, Im a brazillian myself and waxing per say isnt actually a must, the method I mean... but we do have a strong tendency to get hairless at least on the armpits and on the "neatherlands". Most guys use a razor or prestobe while some do wax, but most girls (at least the ones I've known) prefer wax cuz razor can cause skin irritations. and some even go further into laser... though it's a bit pricey
I think one of the biggest things with ice in American drinks is also to use up less product. The more ice you have in there, the less their wasting on actual product, even though half the time the beverage already is cold.
At my local swimming pool, there are stalls but there is also like 6 showers just before you enter the swimming pool area where you can shower. But obviously people are clothed.
I'm in love with the girl from france i think
Restaurants in Brazil DO offer you a bottle of free water! At least in Brasilia, the capital, they’re actually obligated to give you filtered water free of charge if you ask for it. But I guess it varies from state to state
Raramente um restaunte DO offer free water, voce tem que pedir agua da torneira.
Omg I'm finally the first one
Love from India
Please do a reaction video to more Indian food
I love it
mais vídeos como esse por favor ! Volta Ana!
It really is person to person in America! I'm a huge hugger, but I have friends who do not like to be touched - so I usually ask first before I go in for a hug just to be on the safe side. XD
We also eat ice cream and popsicles outside in the winter!🇨🇦
I think the whole thing with introducing to the parenths it's because BEFORE actually dating you spend a LOT of time with the person. That's why it's so commom introducing to family so early.
0:17 That is actually true! I'm Greek myself and we do that. We call it "μούντζα". As they said it's a bad sign like flipping a finger and when we do it it's like saying "fuck you".
The title is backwards lol. It should be "Weird Things Westerners Do That Koreans May Never Understand."
I think one of the reasons they don't serve tap water by default in France is because (according to my French host mother) in most places around the country, the tap water isn't good to drink unfiltered. Also, I did get (lukewarm) carafe when going out to eat a few times, but even that we had to pay for.
As for the ice in America... What can we say? It's hot in many places, and many of our drinks are made to be served cold. Lukewarm coke isn't that great, you know? Another thing you should be aware of, especially in the South, is that if you just order "tea" and don't specify "hot tea," it's coming to you iced and probably sweet. If you want hot tea, you have to say so!
Interesting. In Brazil it's rare for us to drink unfiltered tap water too, we regularly buy 20L bottles of mineral water even at home (at least where I live). This is curious, as we have the highest freshwater resources in the world, but I believe it is a custom that arrived when sanitation was not yet well developed, and that has stayed. We usually don't trust the water treatment process either, as some substances and metals can pass through them. Not sure, it's an assumption.
@@flpReges Here where I live the water filter is more common than the 20L bottles
It's illegal in France to not give you free water it's in the law that they have to provide you free water if you ask them a carafe ! Also yeah most french people don't really like iced water, you will mostly have cold water in bottle because it's in the fridge but ice is really not common
The tea front is super interesting! Where I am on the easy coast, you have to state iced tea to get cold tea. Otherwise, it's going to be hot.
@@puppybunnysquid3358 Yeah. Because you're on the east coast. Presumably New England or farther north.
5:06 carafe d'eau like to give tea in morocco, it's not exactly the same but it's the same idea
There is actually a subculture in Brazil where people get naked while they're on waterfalls and wild places far from cities.
In Germany that also exists, they have designated pkaces for nudity where you can see whole family members totally naked all together. Grandparents, mom and dad and kids, everyone naked, it's called FKK (Frei Korper Kultur, or free body culture).
I don't like drinking cold drinks unless I'm extremely hot so everytime I eat out I always have to order a water with no ice (and with lemon), and there was one time I ordered a sweet tea with no ice and my dad thought the bartender forgot to put ice in it and almost said something, but I had to tell him I ordered it without ice 😂
Esse foi o melhor grupo ate hoje. 😂
Same in Canada everything comes with ice and you have to ask to have it without the ice
In my part of america it's totally normal to introduce someone you've just started dating to your family. It's not seen as like, a formal, serious step or anything like it is in movies. It's just like, normal? For your family to know the people in your life? whether that's friends are partners.
I am part Mexican and we cheek kiss family and friends. Also I put my arm around my male friends. We enjoy it.
American dude just walked off an early 90's music video.
It’s giving missy elliot
I think because my family is from South and Caribbean I immediately hug people. I do it less now because we are still in a pandemic
Eu peço água da casa, quando não quero pagar a água no restaurante, e sempre me serviram...
Achei estranho quando ela falou que tem q pagar pela água. É só pedir da torneira, tem umas lanchonete ou padaria que te da geladinha ainda.
Eu acho que não iriam negar água se um cliente pedir, mas não é um costume, o senso comum é de comprar a água ja que sabe deus a procedência da água da casa...
Eu achei que era ilegal negarem água da casa, todo restaurante que fui até hoje oferecia água da casa nem sabia que era algo comum ter que comprar água.
Dei uma olhada e aparentemente não é obrigatório em todo lugar, só algumas cidades possui essa lei.
Agora é lei no Brasil em algumas cidades que o restaurante é obrigado a servir água da torneira de graça kkkk
Achei que sempre fosse assim, sempre entrei em bar e pedi um copo d'água e nunca me negaram.
Early!!!
Joy is so gorgeous omg
he really is! he has gorgeous eyes! man attracts the girls, gays, and theys
Y’all are so sweet thank you ❤️🥰
I thought canada would be the same as the US. here it's not a big deal bringing someone you're dating to family stuff. My nephew in highschool brings his girlfriend to family stuff all the time.
YESSSSSSSSSS
Decided to get a month pass for hot springs in Austria, and everyone was naked....mom, dad, kids, grandma, baby, the whole family!!! Its totally normal. It was weird the first few trips...then you just get numb to it. lol
Most cold drinks when you order them in the US will come with ice but not all. For example, I can't imagine anyone serving cold beer or wine with ice in it, and orange juice almost never comes with ice but I have seen it (but I think it's an accident!).
Isn’t the title backwards? It should be, “Weird things Westerners do that Koreans may never understand!”
is love 🇧🇷🇺🇸
Lol and yes Ice is always served unless you say no ice 😂 I’ve never thought about that
❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
we do have tap water it's called "água da casa"
The American man looks like Kai from TXT
Ice makes cold/cool drinks taste more refreshing, i think that's why americans like it ^^
I'm from Brazil, please invite them more often! i love it🥺❤️
I am from the uk and some places will ask if you want tap water or bottle and ask if you want ice or not in your drinks.
Lol the Teemo laugh 3:40
When talking about the water in France she said carafe.
Oui, en France on demande une carafe d'eau sinon c'est de l'eau en bouteille (Evian, Volvic ou autres) et dans ce cas on paie la bouteille mais c'est la nôtre lol
Le serveur nous demande aussi si on veut de l'eau plate ou gazeuse 😊
Grab your here before 10k views ticket😁😁
Brazilian waxing made me remember Eulchacha Waikiki season one🤣
joy is so attractive
Hehe thank you
Joy knows full well if his momma catches wind he is seeing someone, it doesn't matter if its the first date or if its the proposal date he better bring the "girl" over to meet momma, and the "girl" better bring him over to meet dad
Actually is against the law for a restaurant or dinner to refuse to give water to a customer in Brazil
en argentina el agua tampoco es gratis nunca... te la cobran y encima casi siempre es mas cara que una coca cola por ejemplo, o sale lo mismo... y ni siquiera suelen ser marcas de aguas "caras"
In the US you have to say no ice
i have covid right now and it's so hard to drink liquids without ice. hahaha
❤😊👋
In italy we haven't free water neither
🇧🇷♥️👏🏼
As an American I will not drink my soda or water without ice ewww also usually illegal to not give free water at a restaurant here
5:04 she said a carafe
