    As a Chinese, I am so impressed. It's really good considering you are a beginner. I just couldn't get over the fact that you are a 4th med student, have high academic achievements, somehow able to manage to learn a new language at the same time maintaining a CZcams channel; while I don't have any other side hustles, sitting here struggling to motivate myself to study harder for the upcoming A level😂

      @⠀𝙵𝚄𝙲𝙺 𝚈𝙾𝚄⠀ In China there is indeed a part of the domestic need for vpn, but the vast majority of those who can go on CZcams are Chinese people living abroad, (there are Chinese people in every corner of the earth, it is a little surprising to say) also includes me, this is also after I went abroad to know, know that some countries have Chinatown but did not expect the Chinese will spread around the world.

      @@karagcknHi, I'm a Chinese, hope this will help you. In the vedio he said his chinese is not that amazing because he didn't say it for long time, so maybe it's a mistake. Because when he said "jin tian de luo yang hen hao kan"("luo yang " should be "luo ri", which means"sunset") .So back to "boba tea", which can be a mistake also. If you add a comma between "我爱你" and "珍珠奶茶", it can means "I love boba milk tea" which you may said to the boba milk tea (kind of stupid because you are talking to a cup of tea). And if add "de" just like you said, it means "I love your boba milk tea". Alright, so it can be a mistake, or it's actually a hidden secrect, kind of love words, who knows hhhh.

      Dude, you should also know about the reality of dating as an Asian men in the west then. Pretty sure the girl is friend zoning him regardless what he does for her but leading him on to use him. This is a sad reality. There's even surveys that shows attractive asian models can't even get as much date as an ugly white guy. Truth hurts but it needs to be said.
