💈 Mr. Lee's Relaxing Korean Style Shave | 성우이용원 Seongu Barbershop In Seoul

- Relaxing traditional Korean shave in the newly remodeled "historic" 성우이용원 Seongu Barbershop in Seoul, South Korea.
Mr. Lee was born and raised in the family home where his grandfather opened Seongu Barbershop in 1927. At that time, Mr. Lee’s grandfather was the second Korean who was given a permit for barbering by the occupying Japanese.
It was in the 1960s when Mr. Lee began cutting hair. He learned everything from his dad and worked with him until his dad decided to retire. In the 1960s, Mr. Lee remembers there used to be 4-5 barbers working at the shop.
As you’ll see in this video, Seongu Barbershop has had an incredible transformation!
Shortly after filming with Mr. Lee in 2019, a severe storm damaged his shop beyond repair. Mr. Lee told us thankfully no customers were in the shop at the time!
Sadly, restoration was not possible so a new barbershop was constructed instead. Mr. Lee says he is very happy with the new shop and enjoys working there 💈❤️ He has been overwhelmed with lots of new customers visiting the shop now so he continues to be very busy cutting hair.
Although his beloved shop has changed, inside the spirit of the old shop remains... The potato starch, watering cans, bar soap to wash your hair, vinegar rinse, pink towels, and red phone ☎️
Mr. Lee has been keeping an eye on the number of views his videos have and is amazed with the popularity of our original videos! 🙌🏼

It’s great to see you here! Thanks for watching the new video with Mr. Lee 🙏🏼 So many of you had questions on the last haircut video about his remodeled shop so we shared a YT community post where you can see some before & after photos of Seongu👇🏼

Best Mr .Lee is the best one
@@drukerm1305 Mr. Lee is just fabulous!
Harry nice mirror trick at 29 minutes and 39 seconds i almost missed it
Guy never aged a bit
one of the best shave, another few that i hope you revisit is the one in japan and hongkong. also i like these type of barber that press and pull your skin rather than those that ask you to stick your tongue out, do this and that. a shave should be as relaxing as possible.
The sounds, the shave, the towel floofing the hair. So relaxing.
I love how harry passes out in every video because he's just so relaxed from the barber's work lol
He's got the best job in the world it seems
The legend: Mr Lee. His finesse, his detail, his silent laser sharp focus on what looks like one of the best shaves in the world. Def on my list.
Nobel Prize
@@matiprofe3634Nobel Prize for shaving??😂
THE LEGEND OF MR. LEE IS BACK FOR PART 2! Master of his craft!
I cannot believe I am here so early. It is going to be a relaxing evening. Thank you Harry for this video. Blessings to Mr Lee. He is amazing. All the best to you too.
Such a joy to watch Mr Lee in his shop, the skill, patience and pride he takes in his job is unmatched by many.
The end is always the best when Mr Lee starts slapping the chair with the towel lol
First of all this guy's a genius with the razor blade. I'm not sure if I'm totally in love with the remodel, but mr. Lee's here so makes all the difference in the world. His use of strops when sharpening his razors brings to mind an old world mentality. The only thing missing here is the spot where he had the shaving cream ring. Thank you for posting another wonderful video!
Can I ask why barbers these days don't strop their razors anymore?
@Tim S mostly because they use disposable razors for sanitary reasons. And you wouldn't strop a disposable razor.
The remodel was because his old shop was damaged beyond repair in a storm
Да прежнего антуража не хватает и кольца для бритвенный пены определённо тоже
Love how he still uses the toy watering can even though he clearly has plumbing now. 😂
Added to my ASMR playlist after the first 10 seconds. What a treat, thank you Harry and Mr.Lee. +Argh I love that he still uses the blue watering can things even in the new shop!
Can you send me the playlist
@@Urbanlightswitches You should be able to click my name here, then click playlists. It's the only one that's public
@@Urbanlightswitches just check his profile and then the playlists, you will find it there
Very glad for Mr. Lee that he has a new and modern shop. Must admit I miss some of the old features like that big metal thing that he use to make the shaving lather on. Never figured out the story there. Thanks Harry.
my theory is that korean officials gave him notice to stop doing that for health & sanitary reasons, they probably noticed seeing how big the video got. or maybe a fire hazard
The video description said his shop was sadly damaged beyond repair in a storm a short while after Harry's first visit in 2019.
Harry invested one hundred thousand dollars in Mr. Lee barbershop
I would love to get a shave and a haircut from this man. Wish these kind of old school barbers were everywhere.
Mr Lee is a living legend ! I was is Seoul & Busan last summer and had the most amazing time in both cities. back again this summer as might have to pay Mr Lee a visit.
Absolutely fantastic to see Mr Lee again in action! Thanks for sharing Harry!
Goat, of course Mr Lee has an OG cutthroat and strops. The sound is so unique just as his style is. Thank you Harry the team and Mr Lee. Great to see him back and in a lovely renovation encapturing the OG feels. 🙏🏻
Love how he uses the old bucket instead of his new shower head ❤
These people are like unique relics from another time.. they are timeless in the way they commit to their craft. I don’t know Mr.lee in person but i can definitely say he respects his craft. Thank you Harry for bringing this video.
Mr. Lee is one of a kind. A true master of his trade. I love that he still uses the old watering jug to wash your hair. Classic!!
This was great. The strop work of Mr. Lee, the crisp sound of the razor cutting through the hair, the wash with soap. Just like going back in time. Even Mr. Legend himself standing guard 😂 Though I think that’s someone else this time😊
Honestly though I missed the pot he had for the shaving cream
Really I prefer that straight razor than the replaceable blade ones myself. But you probably get a closer shave with the replaceable.
Thanks for memories and asmr once again, Harry and Mr. Lee
I think my favorite part of the video is Mr. Lee’s sharpening of the blade pre-shave (like Angel). 🎉🎉
A feather in the cap for both Mr. Lee and Harry. Respect... these two guys are the bees knees.
INCRIVELMENTE estava assistindo o primeiro vídeo do Lee, quando acabei de assistir, vi que você tinha postado um novo vídeo do Lee. Vou assistir já!!
Thank you Harry, Lee, and the Golden Soul that runs the camera. You bring something beautiful to the world with your work.
Slapping the barber chair with a towel means you’re all good to go.😊👍 Thank you for making the videos. It’s very soothing to watch after a long day at work!
I would watch a video of him just sharpening his razor all day.
He is such an adorable figure. His old barber shop was a magical vintage place. Greetings from Athens Greece.
*YES* I've watched the other one so many times because I enjoy it. Now I have another to replay.
Love the towel action to dry your hair and the old watering can. Unique touches you don't see elsewhere!
Three legends (including the cameraperson) - preserving classic barbering for the ages - thank you! 🙏
Don't forget the guys standing on front of the window looking outside, who has been there from the start
@@Enzor2011 Good point! 👍
Love seeing Mr Lee again and doing well
If I visited Korea on vacation, Mr Lee's barber shop would be my first place to visit.
Definitely check it out!
Watching this video gives me a feeling of happiness and sadness at the same time. I feel happy because the gentleman has been able to update his barbershop, which reflects that he's doing much better. However, I also feel sad because something has been lost. There used to be an authentic nostalgic feeling. Although I'm a woman and don't go to barbershops, watching these videos helps me relax my mind before sleep. Seeing the old barbershop transported me to the past. I suppose for the visitors who came before the remodeling, it was quite an experience to be served in such a special place. But now, with the renovation, it has lost that charm and seems like just an ordinary barbershop.
Yessssss!!! Thank you 😊
Mr. Lee!! ❤❤❤ He is amazing and a legend! 🎉
Thankyou Harry for making my sleepless night a little more relaxing! All the best to you and co. 🙏🏻
WOW! What a treat that must have been for you Harry. Mr. Lee is the man.
Always great to visit Mr. Lee! 💈❤️🙌🏼
This service was so accurate that the customer won't need to shave for a month
He is a national treasure, I am sad to see the old shop changed so much though. The original shop had so much style and flair, although I am sure it was not a safe environment anymore. Did you talk with him about the shop remodel?
He's just iconic isn't he...
Many thanks.....all the way from London.
I just love he’s still got the watering can ❤️
You cannot teach an old dog new tricks
Definition of a skilled professional! Great job again!
Thanks for delivering Harry, you are the man! ❤️💪
My pleasure! Thanks for watching 🙏🏼❤️
What a lovely man Mr Lee is, there's not many of them left. 💖
Videos with Mr Lee are the Best !!
Yeah! Back to where he belongs. Love Mr. Lee ❤
I must admit that your videos w/Mr Lee are amongst my favourites. If everything goes according to plan, I might even see him in person soon 😎
That's awesome to hear! 🙌🏼 Hope you enjoy meeting Mr. Lee 💈❤️
Awesome! Give us an update when you do.
I would just want to know if there is a guy standing at the door
YESSS!!! THIS... I had the original in my "sleep routine" now I can add another.. I'm so happy
This man is just awesome. Enjoyed the video like always Harry!
As he said to us, if you can't sharpen the blade he won't teach you. Love Mr Lee.
Another great shaving experience very much in the same style of that elderly Japanese man and Japanese Woman you experienced a few years ago the attention to detail is incredible and rarely seen in the west the man is an artist in so many ways thanks for sharing this Harry.
The shower part is exactly the same as the one in the previous video, correct? A luxury to see this artist
Thanku so much for this video Harry Sir..
The guy with the white sox and flip flops must be the gate keeper! Legend!
Mr Lee is one of a kind
The legend returns!!!
I am the happiest, so see the great duo again!!!

Nadie duda que el barbero tiene estilo hasta retirando las pequeñas salpicaduras en tu ropa.
Excelente sonido! Maravillosa experiencia!
Harry nunca decepciona.
Always a pleasure watching a skilled craftsman. Thank you for sharing.
The beauty of watching things that are older. I just watched you at this place before, now I get to see round 2 right after 😎
Edit: it appears Mr. Lee had some upgrades 👌

As awesome as it is to see Mr. Lee in his brand new shop, there was a charm at his former location (pot of warm water sitting on a burner on the corner that doubled as a lather station 🥰)

Same guy standing looking outside
Think it's the same refurbished location
One of my favorite barbers!!
