YOUR PARENTS ARE SO CUTE. This made me tear up because I feel like we never realize everything our parents do until we’re adults. Also, the music choices destroyed my emotions in the best way.
Exactly!

Same ❤
💯 percent respect for you the love you got for your Parents ❤❤
Same. So sweet. I miss my parents. You're a good daughter. ❤
Shoutout to Blurry Salsa Man for capturing all these moments of the 3 of you, and for suggesting this vacation for you parents - so sweet! I can't believe we are coming to an end of your Living Alone Diaries! So excited for this next chapter for you!
Absolutely! So sweet and thoughtful. This video was so special. Happy for Michelle :)
Who’s blurry salsa man?
@@euniceaa oh you must be new here! Blurry Salsa Man is Michelle’s partner. 😂 He has been lovingly given that name because in one of the first videos he was shown in, they were dancing the Salsa and he was blurred out (as he is in all her videos for privacy). It really is such a funny thing that we all call him Blurry Salsa Man, and Michelle even does too 😂
Your partner wanting you to be close to your parents and knowing how much you cherish them and actively doing things to help that is so sweet and important. I’m glad you have someone like that in your life, Michelle 💕
The way that both your parents just like, look at you and silently express how proud they are of you and how happy you make them by being you makes me so happy.
Your dad saying that it was his first time in 28 years traveling with your mom-I teared up 🥺🫶🏼
Same❤😢
Me tooo
Sameee here😢😢❤
Me tooo!!
I was sobbing fr
major props to blurry salsa man for suggesting to have your parents come to NYC, sooo sweet and thoughtful of him 🫶🏽🫶🏽🫶🏽
@@cocolino4164 are u ok?
@@cocolino4164did you not hear her say her dad is a working man his whole life, he only knows work! It’s not easy to just close his business and come on trips. Have a heart what a senseless thing, not to mention her parents have never been able to vacay together, life isn’t easy everyone doesn’t have someone to look after stuff for them.
I'm only 2 minutes in BUT WHY AM I DROWNING IN TEARS. this vlog was so wholesome and made me miss my parents. Going to go see them now.
Me too😢😢😢😢
same here 😭
I'M 1:22 MINTUTES IN AND I'M BAWLING!
Me too! 😭
I cried so much watching this! This is what I want for my parents, to be able to give them experiences! I wish you a life full of health and prosperity so you can retire your parents! You’re such a great daughter 🥺
these were my exact same thoughts too :)
As someone who's not close to my parents, this video made me tear up. Such a wonderful family.
sending you hugs 🫂
I love how in the beginning, your dad seemed to have a straight face and as time went on, he softened up and smiled so much. :)
The way your dad is looking at you is one of the sweetest, most genuine thing I have ever seen! 💜
i think i cried the whole time while watching this one. it's crazy cause of course i don't know you personally, but i've been watching you since you were in college. so to see you being able to do things you've always wanted to, taking care of your parents, buying a car, accomplishing new things... everything makes me really happy for you. fly high, meesh, you deserve it all, truly.
the narration portion of your parents visiting was impeccable!!!! absolutely loved the story telling. such a beautiful family
As a Palestinian growing up with a full circle of challenging life, I got so emotional watching this video with your parents and watching your progress through the years. Wishing you comfort and peace
Wishing you and all Palestinians around the world and in Palestine a life of comfort and peace as well :(
Thinking about all of you constantly. I pray for a free Palestine soon ❤️🇵🇸
❤❤🇵🇸🇵🇸
praying for you everyday! free palestine
I hope you are safe and well, none of us are free until all of us are free, free free Palestine!
growing up seeing your immigrant parents work and work for your prosperity is a feeling that just can’t be explained - this video was so heartfelt and reminded me so much of my parents. thank you for sharing Michelle ❤
Seeing your mom for the first time in your videos and seeing her now is such a sweet difference she seems more open and excited and joyful
i’m sobbing and i’m only 2 minutes in! seeing how hard your parents work, and your desire to retire them for the past 6+ years was so heart touching. as a child of immigrant parents myself, i relate to that immensely and seeing your parents enjoy a meal with you in nyc, and overall just enjoying their time, is heart touching. wishing happiness, good health and prosperity to you and your family
A visual letter from Michelle to her adorable parents! Such beautiful storytelling...excuse me now I'm gonna go cry😭😭😭❤️✨
I had to pause a few times to catch myself from crying, your parents are so sweet and hardworking and I see where you get it from! I am so happy to be part of the community you have built and I hope to see your parents having the ability to retire this year! Love you Michelle and don’t forget to take your time ❤
The first part of this video had me crying, especially when your dad said he’s got a taste of retirement 😭. The love and warmth between your family can be felt through the camera 🥰. The second part of the video made me so happy for you!! Hope it’s everything you’re looking for ❤
As a first-generation Korean American, this was one of my favorites video of all time. Thanks for this 🙏🏼
OO my God ! The speech of your dad at the beginning made me cry ! You are lucky to have them and they are luckier to have you❣
I'm also living far away from my hometown. I've never once cried when my parent say goodbye to me when I go to another city, but when I say goodbye to them after they come and visit me, it brings tears to my eyes. Can't wait for the Lunar New Year to go back home
Thank you for sharing a vulnerable and intimate piece of your life with us. Your parents are so sweet and your appreciation towards them is so precious. Seeing their interactions with each other and with you in this video made me cry. It’s so special! ♥️🙏🏽
This video touched me and made me cry🥺 because it's beautiful to see how two people can stay together in a relationship, work hard and raise such a great kid like you Michelle. I have not been lucky enough to have parents like that and that is why this is absolutely beautiful for me to see. It's a blessing to have a family like yours. I wish you all the best for the new year.💕
THIS IS THE BEST VIDEO EVER!! 😭
It made me cry so hard.
Especially when your dad mentioned he's tasted retirement, the first scene in this video brought tears to my eyes. The video reflects the warmth and love that exists between your parents.
Thank you so much for allowing us to share to journey. 🤍 and I can’t wait to witness your growth and healing journey. 🥹
What a lovely Daughter you are to your parents ! Your Dad seems like an amazing hard working guy. Made me tear up 🥲
So, we all got our anxiety from our dads, huh? Thanks for such a wholesome vlog, Michelle. I am so far away from my parents and this made me tear up. Sending you and the fam lots of good vibes and well wishes for the new year :)
your narration of your parents' trip is bringing me to tears!! thank you for being vulnerable with us
I love how you talk about your parents, in all the videos you mention them I can feel the wholehearted love and appreciation and gratitude and joy…it’s oddly calming? And I watch with a huge smile on my face as someone who can relate to some of the things you say.
Happy new year, wishing you and your family a glorious year🫶🏾🤍
(Blurry salsa man did amazing w/ the filming! So natural and so ur vibe)
I just got basically disowned by my own parents over the holidays, for literally wanting to just have casual chit-chats with them... seeing this makes me feel warm again. Thank you Michelle!
Your dad is the soul of the family - as my dad was in my life. Im so grateful to be his daughter
love this! same in my family ❤
Im literally crying while watching this vlog. That’s my ulitimate dream. Take my parents out of the country or out of town and treat them on a vacation. Take them to a nice dinner, shop for them, make them happy.
Thanks Michelle Choi for reminding us that our parents’ happiness should be prioritized.
Happy Holidays. And may God bless you even more.
how u bring your parents our of their shells..amazing. i can see how your mom is now such a natural in front of the camera compared to her first few appearances! Your dad is so precious... both of them are. Congrats on the porsche. U worked so hard fr everything and deserves it.
Michelle this really hit close to home and pulled on all my heartstrings. It's crazy how similar our experiences are!! My parents also immigrated almost 30 years ago and have worked tirelessly at their dry cleaning business. My dad has not been on a proper vacation since coming to the US to support my family and so this really gives me hope to be able to do something like this for them in the future. I love your videos - you are truly inspiring!
😭😭🤍🤍🫶🏻🫶🏻
As a child of Korean immigrants myself, I did not realize how much my parents sacrificed for my sisters and I. I’m 35 and have a successful career, travel regularly, and have a life that I truly love. I now understand what my parents have done for us and I am forever grateful. My sisters and I have essentially retired my mom and dad last year and take them on annual vacations. It is not much for what they’ve done but it’s the least we could do. In a few days the entire family is going on a ski trip to Whistler and my parents cannot wait! It makes me so happy that we can treat them this way and take them on new experiences. Thank you for sharing a glimpse into your life with your family. Your mom and dad are very blessed to have you as their daughter. Sending you and your family lots of love and light in this new year ❤
The most valuable thing a human can have are the memories and time spent together. My father passed away when I was 27 years old, a year after my wedding. It's been 18 years now and it still breaks my heart. I miss him so much. My parents owned a drycleaners and worked the same hours as your parents. I am very grateful for their sacrifice because it was hard immigrating to a new country to start over. My mom retired 10 years ago, what a wonderful decision. She is 82 now and thankfully healthy. I promised my dad before he passed away to not worry about mom. My mom lives with us and she is happy. --- As I am getting older, material things are no longer important. Money cannot replace people. Life is too short and you never know what tomorrow will bring. Thank you for sharing this video because it makes me happy to see your parents enjoying every second of their trip. Applause to you (and Blurry Salsa Man - he's a keeper)!
Okay, I never comment on videos, but I just had to say that the bit with your parents was the most beautiful thing I’ve seen in a while. It made me cry. The love you have for your parents is so evident it was beautiful and touching to be able to witness it.
this made me cry! the relationship you and have with your family is beautiful and its so sweet how much you want to give back to them and you clearly appreciate them and know them inside out. the way your boyfriend treats them is so lovely too.
Your dad is just like most Asian dad, quiet and hardworking, sacrificed a lot for the family. I can’t hold my tears back bc it really reminded me of my dad.
Your parents are adorable.
Congratulations 🍾 on your new changes in 2024. ❤
you are beyond blessed!! Omg and congrats! Living alone diaries is on to a huge new chapter!!
This was so wholesome and warming. Thank you for sharing and being vulnerable with us 😭😭
Sending all the blessings to you and your lovely parents. the first 2mins were so sweet. They must be so so proud of you. What hardworking people
Anybody else tear up? I love this for your parents ! ❤
I'm so proud of you especially what you have done for your parents thinking they're not getting any younger anymore. We love you, Meessh!! ❤
Seeing your Dad experience NY and enjoy his time warmed my heart.
Michelle🩷 your parents are so lovely! Every time I see them on your video I can’t help crying 😭 I don’t know ..that kind of videos are so heartwarming 🩷 God bless you all 🙏🏻
Not Michelle making me cry on the way to work....This is amazing. Your love letter to your parents is so beautiful. Congratulations on the new car, so proud!
미쉘님❤ 가족들과 함께하시는 모습 너무 보기 좋아요... 부모님이 좋은 분이라 미쉘님도 좋은 분이신가봐요🥹 항상 주변에 선한 영향력 끼치시는 모습도 멋지고! 재밌는 영상도 너무 잘 보고 있어요🫶 항상 행복하시고 미쉘님도 가족들도 2024년 새해 복 많이 받으세요💕
미쉘님 차 구매 축하드려요 🩷 운전하실때 미쉘님의 찐웃음 너무 예뻐요! 부모님과 함께하는 장면들은 너무 뭉클하고 아름다웠어요 새해 복 많이 받으세요🩷
I’m teary eyed too!
Missed my father, wish I had a chance of bringing him in a vacation. Thankful that my Mother, sisters got to vacay last year.
God bless your pure heart Michelle❤
teared up so many times through out the video---- reminded me my parents who also have not taken a break in all my 27 years---- I hope I can do the same for them like you- It was suvh a warmmmm hug to watch and melt down like a puppy. Thank You Michelle- You are a queennnnn
성실하게 누구보다 열심히 그 자리를 지키시느라 28년이란 시간이 지났나 봅니다.
두분다 너무 행복하고 신나보여요 ㅎㅎ❤
새해 복 많이 받아요 미쉘❤
This really made me miss my mama!🥺 Our parents can really be hard on themselves!
I pray your parents live VERY HEALTHY LONG YEARS!❤️❤️❤️
I teared up watching this video. Reminds me of my parents back in my home country. Our parents always keep our happiness first and keep working hard, your dad reminds me of my dad, he has just forgotten to enjoy working hard all these years. It’s so nice you got them over to NYC. Do call them over more, wanna see more of your mom and dad in your vlogs. ❤💫🧿
I knew I would be in tears watching this video. I’m living aboard and I’m missing my parents so much so this hit close to home. And I also miss nyc at time so it’s just nice seeing it all in one place. So happy your dad got to travel and take a break from working so much. Truly, well deserved. ❤
i had the biggest smile on my face throughout this entire video, even got a little emotional ngl. your parents are so cute!!! it was so sweet hearing the way that you were talking about them. im sure that they're so proud to have you as their daughter and i hope that your wish to retire them comes true this new year. thats any child's dream for their parents. sending you and your family all the best and may your parents always remain happy and healthy!!
Your dad's story is so moving that it brought tears 🥲This episode really made me cry allllll the way...
Mi, this video touched me. I lost my father figure three months ago, and I think about him all the time. When you were talking about your father, I got very emotional and also happy. He reminds me a lot of my own. Thank you so much for this video.
I love seeing you happy❤❤❤ you have such a lovely soul. Congratulations on your first car!
안녕하세요. 서울에 사는 40대 직장인 입니다. 출근길 지하철에서 우연하게 이 영상을 보게되었어요. 그동안 부모님께서 살아오신 히스토리와 행복해하시는 모습을 보니 저도 모르게 울컥하게 되었네요 😂 말로 표현하기 어렵지만 따뜻한 마음과 작은목표가 생기네요 감사합니다:)
This video was so sweet and reminded me a lot of my relationship with my dad. He's the most hardworking guy I know and never really took a vacation until he retired. I wish I could give him the world because the world would not be enough.
Love love love for this video. It was just wholesome❤ I just loved the moments that you spent with your parents. As years go by we see parents grow old and cannot help but feel sad about it. Definitely they must be feeling really rich and happy with such an affectionate and loving daughter like you. And I really love how you continue to grow in terms of opening up to people and improving yourself. You are really glowing girl!
I was having a bad day and this video bought a ray of sunshine for my day.
Lots of love for you and your omma appa😘
My dad passed away a year ago and I couldn't do this , I regret it so much. I want to retire my mom at least as soon as possible. My parents too had a similar relationship dynamic like yours. Seeing your parents and your family happy like this really had me teared up because I know how meaningful this is! Much love and an entire world's lucks and blessings to you Michelle ♥
I’m sorry for your loss 😢
Living alone series will come to an end. What a journey it has been! You’re such an inspiration, Michelle! Always in all ways 🥺🥺💯💯❤️🩹❤️🩹
I love your love, respect and gratitude towards your parents. Loved this vlog, Michelle! Happy New Year! May all your dreams come true.
I cried bc the love you have for your parents radiated from the screen and it makes me want to hug mine too 😢❤❤❤❤❤
just had to pause the video to say you’re so relatable, michelle! one of my main goals in life is to be able to give my parents experiences they havent had before and eventually to make them retire early. thank you for sharing these special moments with us! 🫶🏼🫶🏼
This is what it’s all about ❤️ especially for us Asian kids whose parents sacrificed so much just for us to have a better life. Love seeing you give back to your parents! 🫰🏼😭
As someone whose parents live on a different continent as well, this made me so emotional. It's such a big moment for us when we are able to share our "adult" life and accomplishments and experiences with the people that we hope are proud of us the most. From little cooking moments, to just feeling like you are protected as a child again by the people most familiar to you - priceless. I am happy they had a great time with you and really enjoy your vlogs. They give me comfort.
정말 예쁜 가족이에요..! 다들 건강하시고 새해 복 많이많이 받으시길..
less than 3 mins into this video and im about to cry?? you whole family, yourself included, deserve all the best life has to offer. im honored to have played the smallest part in supporting your journey. also if your mom starts a channel i wish smash that subscribe button so quick lol God bless you and your family 💛
Oh my god. Her parents is so adorable. A-DOR-ABLE❤
Your parents video always makes me cry. I’m proud of you ❤ And we can see how long and how much your bf was filming you. So heartwarming
I love love love this vlog. When your dad spoke to you at the airport, I cried. Thank you for sharing these moments with us. Hope you had a wonderful holiday with your family and friends, and Happy New Year!!
I was really touched when you talked about your dad because he's really similar to my dad. My dad was a hard worker and he would never take vacation and never took a flight with just my mom too. My dad passed away 2 years ago and I miss him everyday. Seeing your dad being able to rest and spend time with you makes me so happy.
every daughter has a bond with their father 🤍
👼
My dad passed in April 2023 and I relate to all that you said about your dad. I’m so sorry for your loss and I hope you are doing well🤍
Great vlog!
Can't help but shed tears!
So thankful you got to spend so much time with your family!
And kudos to Blurry Salsa Man for helping to document!
I'm excited for you all and pray you have an amazing 2024!❤
This video and especially the voiceover is so heartwarming. I can feel your anxiety through your voice but it doesn't bother me at all it makes me feel comforted since I'm also an anxious person and an INFJ as well. Your family is so cute and loving. I'm happy to see that at least some people get to have a family like yours. Supportive helping and grateful.
Thank you Michelle for this amazing warm-hearted vlog, it fills me with love and happiness. I am happy for your new chapter of life. Hope all is well.
not even a minute in, we're tearing up. we loved this video. thanks for sharing 💞
Yay Michelle I'm so happy and proud of you🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉 Happy New Year
I teared up this whole entire video. This was so endearing and I’m so happy your parents got the chance to spend the holiday in the city with you and enjoy themselves 🥹🥹🥹
Your parents are so cute! Actually, you are all adorable! Your relationship with your parents is just adorable too. Makes me appreciate my own parents more. Moments with them are so precious we take things for granted.
Not me trying not to ugly cry during this video 😭 my parents are getting older and I live on the other side of the US so any time I get to spend with them is so precious.
They finally came to visit me (hard because my mom can’t fly so they drove 30+ hours) and it reminded me a lot of your time with your parents. Love through sharing food ♥️
This is my favourite video on the internet today. So relatable. It’s every working class’ child’ dream to take their parents on a vacation once. Loved this one. Heartfelt.
Michelle! You have touched many people as is evidenced from the comments, with your beautiful display of the relationship with your parents. I know since your video when you took your Mom to Korea, I also have felt so sentimental watching your videos with your parents. And this one I cried throughout this video. It has helped me to appreciate the value of family even more, and especially helped me to understand how precious time is. It is clear you have a genuine, unique and precious love for them and its a beautiful thing to capture and share how much you want to give back to the people who raised you. It encourages us all in the most gentle way, to value our own parents and for this I truly thank you.
This is the most genuine and heartfelt family time. I love this video the most !!!!!! Seeing you spending time is precious and make me so happy m peaceful.
The first part with your parents was so beautiful. Made me miss my dad so much and wish that I had started vlogging sooner before he passed a couple years ago so that I would have had footage like this to look back on. Such beautiful moments. You’ll treasure this forever ♥️
I love watching your videos especially when you're with your mom. But I specifically love this one, because both your parents are with you! Also, I love how Blurry Salsa Man was super into being your cameraman and helping you film the moments spent with your parents. So much love for this video! 🥰💕
hi Michelle long time viewer here and I am just so full of emotions watching this video. as an only child getting to see the montage of your parents and you touched my heart deeply, my father passed away two years ago and my biggest dream what shower him with love travel and new experiences. just like your father, mines was always working for his family and doing his best to provide for us he didn't always have time to experience live and explore, thank you for sharing this video , it felt like a big hug to my grieving heart I love you!
This is my favorite video of yours, Michelle. 😭😭😭😭 So full of love, warmth, and everything nice. It's so heartwarming seeing you together with your loved ones. ❤🥺
부모님이 얼마나 자랑스러우시겠어요.ㅎㅎ 저도 미국에 판매하고있지만, 부모님과 함께 가는 날을 그려보네요. 미소 지으면서 보고 갑니다.😊
Miche my throat hurts from crying throughout the video. You and your parents deserve the world. Happy New Year my love!!!!❤❤❤❤
Shout-out to blurry salsa man.
Every time you post a video of your parents I cry 😢 I feel so deeply all the things you say about them that it's feels like it's me and my mom. I hope this year is so much better than the past one and that you can be with the people that you love the most
Thats so priceless the relationship you have formed with your parents
Aww your parents are so sweet! I actually cried when you said this was your Dad’s first vacation in so many years and first trip with your Mom!
You have made great memories for them on their trip. Enjoy them! ❤
Congrats on getting a new car and wishing you, and Blurry Salsa Man the best for the New Year as you embark on the step in your journey together! 😊
저 영상보는데 눈물나잖아요. 뉴욕에 사는 저는 한국에 계신 엄마가 그리운 것도 있고 나중에 제 딸이 커서 저랑 함께 할 모습도 그려져서 영상보면서 울컥했어요.
부모님 인상도 너무 좋으시고 왜 미쉘이 이렇게 이쁘고 따뜻한 사람인지 알겠어요. Happy new year
the amount of crying this video made me do is crazy, I even rewatched the first portion where you're with your parents and this is so precious! thank you for your comfort content, Michelle
I feel so happy for you, Michelle. Whether it is the relationship between you and your parents or the one with blurry man, you so deserve each other.
