    Derk's directing style was refreshing. Reminds me of a dad who discovered technology for the first time 😭🤣

      hahaha ,The style of the straight man, the way he speaks and the angle of shooting are very daddy style, not bad

    Usually it's a little awkward when an established channel focused on one person introduces a partner into the mix but for your channel it has felt SO natural from the very beginning when Derk arrived. It's been a lot of fun seeing him experience life in China, trying all the unfamiliar foods and he matches up against your energy perfectly. And as a Dutch person I feel like I can connect with his German casual spirit so easily lmao. It's been a lot of fun seeing you guys on so many activities/dates/holidays. It just flows together in the most natural way.

    @Squbber Před 10 měsíci +78

    To be fully honest the video quality was worse BUT there was something incredibly endearing about seeing Derk trying his best to direct this video, as well as seeing the two of you together! All in all a fun video idea and I wouldn’t mind if you did this again in the future!

  • @Stella-Guan
    @Stella-Guan Před 10 měsíci +49

    Derk is so adorable I can't😅. He has such a unique sense of humor that's hard to describe - it's like he's not funny but funny unintentionally. That's the best kind in my opinion. You two look lovely together.

    I like the new video directed by Derk! It felt candid, natural, and you two have a great chemistry. He added humour to the flair! And HK Disneyland looks fun. I vote for another video directed by Derk! 😄

    Hidden indoor food street, the local's secret place - 葵涌廣場 Kwai Chung Plaza,a lots of different food to try, e. g. HK style 四川凉皮,
    Octopus ball and you will feel surprised

    "You know, imagine, in case you die, you die at Disneyland." 😂😂😂😂😂 Derek is so chaotic! That came out of nowhere, and it was hilarious! That stoic german delivery too making it seem like you should be privileged to have your last moments in Disneyland lol !!!!

  • @YutaIntroducedMe2SomeNewThangs
    @YutaIntroducedMe2SomeNewThangs Před 10 měsíci +94

    LOL this was hilarious, but also very sweet and wholesome. Derk's first time directing/filming is not bad, but maybe that's also due to the way you edited this, Amy? Bwahahahah the way you roasted him at 7:03 had me dying. Always love watching you two together. Couple goals!

  • @maytin4285
    @maytin4285 Před 9 měsíci +20

    What a fun video! I was smiling the whole time watching it. I cracked up when Amy tried to recreate Derk’s style by shaking the camera 😂😂

  • @CLONDONH
    @CLONDONH Před 9 měsíci +12

    This video is so chaotic and I'm totally here for it!!! I mean Derk's camera shaking technique really brought us there amid the disarray. The low-angle shots absolutely enhanced the sense of powerlessness against the hot and humid weather and let's not forget about the random shots of Amy caught in a sweating mess. It's all done so beautifully like nothing we have seen before here on Amy's channel LOL jokes aside it's really really refreshing to see Amy's day from Derk's point of view! Oh, and 16:45 was awesome!!! Bonus is Amy's Disneyland dance 9:41 and Derk's signature dance move at 10:05!! Just keeps getting better. It's so much fun and thanks for bringing us along to Disneyland in HK :)

  • @tinan266
    @tinan266 Před 9 měsíci +8

    I remember in those first videos how stiff Derek was so to see him so open and comfortable now (the Disney dance!) is amazing! I hope you both have an amazing time filming this. It's so natural and fun seeing you guys in this video!!

  • @AverytheCubanAmerican
    @AverytheCubanAmerican Před 9 měsíci +7

    Man, I love how much the Disney Imagineers transformed the castle. When the park opened in 2005, it was just a cheaply built Disneyland as the early 2000s was a very rough time for the Walt Disney Company, and so it was just a copy of the original in Anaheim until they finally did something about it to give the park its own identity. Similar to Shanghai Disneyland's castle, it represents not just one princess but multiple Disney princesses from Mulan to Pocahontas! And it's even better with the mountains in the background! But my favorite thing about HK Disneyland as a train buff is the Disneyland Resort Line.
    I mean, the way they designed the stations with how Sunny Bay has a futuristic gateway look while Disneyland Resort station has Victorian-style architecture to signify that passengers are travelling through time between the fantasy world of the Disneyland Resort and the city (the jingles you hear in the train's announcements reflect this too). And that's just the stations, because as you showed here, I love how cute the trains are with Mickey-shaped handles, Mickey-shaped windows, and bronze statues of characters on display. The line was also the first on the MTR to be automated, the South Island would become the second line eleven years later!

  • @SupremeLeaderKimJong-un

    Here's some Hong Kong Disneyland facts for you: One of the exclusive rides at Hong Kong Disneyland is Mystic Manor, which opened in 2013 as part of a major expansion of the park to increase attendance. Mystic Manor was inspired by the Haunted Mansion at other Disney parks. They built Mystic Manor instead of Haunted Mansion because of traditional Chinese beliefs that the deceased are honored rather than feared. The design of Mystic Manor's exterior was inspired by the now-demolished Bradbury Mansion in Los Angeles.
    To avoid problems of cultural backlash, the resort was built by incorporating Chinese culture, customs and traditions when designing and building the resort, including adherence to the rules of feng shui. Like how a bend was put in a walkway near the Hong Kong Disneyland Resort entrance so good qi energy would not flow into the South China Sea. Or how 4 is of course considered bad luck in Chinese culture, and so there are no fourth-floor buttons in the elevators at the Art Deco Hollywood Hotel, or other hotels in the resort.

  • @truthbearer888
    @truthbearer888 Před 10 měsíci +18

    Fantastic video. I would give Derk 10,000 likes myself if I could! He was relaxed and funny.
    By the way, Amy, Derk spending Australian $100 on fans alone is a drop in the bucket for him because I am sure he gets paid big bucks by Audi. I love that he was so thoughtful to buy fans for both of you. Hong Kong is not the place to visit in the summer. The humidity is unbearable and makes it so much hotter.

    To be honest, there is much much room for improvement for Derk in videography. It's the first time feeling dizzy and nausea after watching a video in this channel. 😂

  • @juandenz2008

    I'm really excited about the prospect of seeing a more diverse range of videos in the future.

    Hi Amy. I’m not a commenter on CZcams but I have to stop and write: you are so funny mimicking Derk’s directing style😂. But don’t make fun of him too much coz he is a natural! You guys are so cute together. What’s the word you always use to describe something fantastic? … oh UMAMI! That’s it! That’s how I will describe you cute couple in food language😂 Have fun in HongKong!
