@@user-rg7mj8ci1i true.. there is such a big difference between coming for a visit and living in korea. Like any other country in the world, there are positive things and negative things about Korea. But in botton line, Korea is pretty cool.

And the way you said "girls" ur kindda being sexist right there honestly.
wow your 19yrs. old and you've done those complicated things to get a job and move to another country.. man im 20 yet still finding a job and trying to figure it out what to do with my life.
Thank you for actually talk about the costs in numbers. I've seen a few other people talking about moving abroad in general but they never mentioned the actual prices:/ I also wish all the best for you, you worked really hard to move there:)
I’m born the same year as you, just turned 20 in September and I am faaaaar from having my own appartement in Korea.. you’re really lucky tho :3 would love to meet you one day
Another way of getting a job in Korea is being an English teacher. I worked several years in Seoul as an English teacher and guided foreigners as a group guide through different sights. You will actually need the certain diplomas for teaching English in Korea, please take that into serious consideration..
Autumn Firefly Flame Probably a degree in teaching English. Whether it be for secondary, primary, whatever most youtubers I’ve seen that moved to Korea to become english teachers had already went to college for a bachelors in children’s education.
@@tori6678 I don't have any kind of education degree and I'm teaching here. I did complete an affordable certification in TEFL though. But the majority of my friends teaching have no cert or education degree.
@@abigailsian_ u got this, remember u didnt came to earth to olease others just remember you should save up and have a plan:) and time is not going anywhere so dont feel pressured
You're so pretty! But do you think you could have worked as model over there if you didn't fit into their social standards of looks? Fair skin, petite etc.
She is 177 CM .. not petite but she apart from that she has everything to be a model in Korea as per their beauty standards and probably anywhere else in the world .. Heck look at those eyes...
wow, the deposit amount is madly huge, the international students in the city I lived in Finland paid 400 euros deposit for their apartments and they already complained then they even dream to go to Korea for exchange period, I should slap this in their faces lol, but Sissel, you're so amazing :O
If you go to Korea for exchange you can stay in dorms with tiny deposits (I paid 30k KRW for my room), and since it's for a short time you can probably survive with a less than ideal place to live (고시원, shitty 원룸 etc.) The way the rent system works in a lot of places in Korea is that you pay a deposit and then your rent, the larger deposit the smaller the rent. It's not impossible to find places with an OK deposit and tolerable rent suitable to your situation, but you shouldn't come to Korea with no money saved up expecting to find a nice apartment.
i was kinda shocked about the deposit as well, i'm from Europe, i have a pretty nice and spacious apartment and i payed 300 euro deposit...obviously if someone plans to move t korea, should save a lot of money but the deposit really adds t it...
I'm currently in high school and when I graduate I would LOVE to go to Korea for university but I'm afraid that I won't have enough money and I don't know anyone there. How can I make friends in Korea before going there?
Sseraphim Hi, after I graduated I went to Korea for 3 month...I met someone on the Internet and I visited him. I only had bad experiences with this, so I can warn you that it might not be a good idea to do it like I did. Not everybody on the Internet wants your best and you never know if the things they tell you are true. So if you decide to try to contact people from Korea online please be careful! don't trust everyone and stay safe. I think the best way to meet people in Korea would be going to a language school. It will cost some money but I think it's worth it. And when you decide to go to university there, you will meet a lot of people there too, so don't worry about that :) I really hope you can achieve your dreams~ lots of love 🌻 Janie
You should look into the Korean Government Scholarship Programme (KGSP in short). It's a really good scholarship that also includes up to a year of Korean Language course before starting a bachelors degree. Since you will be grouped with other students who have the scholarship there is more than enough opportunity to meet nice friends in Korea! Or why not try a summer school at a Korean university!
The most important thing to know about studying in Korea is to qualify for the student visa you must present a minimum $10,000 bank balance of yourself/a parent. This is to prove you can financially sustain yourself for the duration of your studies. Most people don't have 10k sitting around on the shelf, so this tears the opportunity away from many. If you have the means to save this money up, start doing so ASAP.
Im an English teacher in america. When I went to live in KOrea 13 years ago no one told you anything, and this kind of information you are giving is like gold. You dont know how other countries do things, and they cant imagine anything different. You can easily be subject to helpers' mistakes and confusion. The school ( if you are teaching) rents the apartment, so they take care of the deposit, and they went with me to set up the bank account. In america I was given the wrong visa, so I had to go to Japan a week in, and change my visa, very stressful. THe employment agency gave me two weeks to move my posessions and arrive in KOrea for the job, Way too little time. ( for the visa, and moving I injured my back) No foreigner was allowed to have a phone for three months, and you had to get used to using the atm at the bank for all money, you carry cash. No paychecks, pay stub or yearly records you might need for tax purposes. I tried for six months and all my co teacher could say was " look at your bankbook" when I tried to say " pay records for my government" and the paper she did show me all the numbers were written out in hanguel. Since I paid taxes in Korea 6%, and you only have to pay in one country, I made sure the postal records of my residence in america showed an american address. ( a relative) I gave up on making any report that I was out of the country. I also had to travel five hours to seoul and bring a translator ( my Korean bf) to have money sent back home, and the limit is one months pay. ( they lost my money in the wire transfer in my korean hometown, and my school frequently neglected to deposit the money, like every single month I was paid) In my contract ( effective version is in KOrean, and they can freely change it without telling you) I was to get severence pay, one month, but that is a problem because of the limit of how much you can send home. SO it is imperative that you have a KOrean friend, which I did since before I went there. He helped translate me out of the visa problem, got me a phone, untangled the pay problems and deposited my severence pay to my American bank through his account. Other foreigners just would have their severence stolen by the school, because once your job is finished you have three days to leave the country, and the severence pay takes two weeks. One pleasant surprise is they give you your national pension money when you leave. Korean money is totally worthless outside of korea, so remember you simply cant take the cash from your pay and exchange it beyond the airport in Seoul. Jong was one of the kindest men I have ever met, and even though we didnt get married I will never forget him.
Dang girl, you are not only beautiful, you are so smart. Can't believe that you are so young yet so mature and intelligent. it's funny because opposite to you, I have been kind of thinking of moving to Scandinavia and basically looking at your video for some ideas to move to the opposite end. lol
I admire your courage to pack all your things and start your life fresh in another country.. not just another country, but a country that is totally different from your own country. I've thought about doing it as well, but i don't have that big of a courage to do that. Even tho i've been to South Korea couple of times, and i love it there + my boyfriend is Korean, i still don't feel brave enough to take that big of a step. Even tho i don't know you, only based on your youtube videos and instagram, i'm happy for you and wish you all the best! 화이팅 my fellow Northern European!😁 I'll be excitedly waiting for the videos of your Korea journey!

Hello Sissel AB, i can feel u. They way you are now reminds me a lot for the first time I moved to France from Indonesia 5 years ago. I had arrived at France at student for Master Degree in Engineering Informatics. Luckly enough, i came with erasmus scholarship, so no hard time for visa issues. Since, i can speak french as fluent as english. I do bit difficult time when few people make joke about my french accent. But, i don't care. Nobody's perfect. As time goes by, I have lots of friends from another parts of world that makes me feels like home more than my home country (Indonesia). As asian girl, you tends to act shy and submissive, but not here in France. You are free to do what you think better for you as long as you respect the right of others as human being. Kindly interesting to meet you in person somehow whether in Europe or Korea. Love from France
how and when did you learn Korean so fluently? Did you become fluent before moving there or did you take classes there? Thank you! I am so inspired I definitely want to live there. I love seeing your story !
Honestly, the whole visa situation's got me so confused that I don't even know how to begin planning my move anymore. Where there's a will, there's a way. But it seems nearly impossible now. I'm self-employed and I work remotely in the States, but I doubt that will cut it. I love the idea of working for Entertainment Co or something along those lines but I lack experience. My Korean's intermediate, learning still. One day!
such an amazing work opportunity! i remember watching some of your makeup tutorials like two years ago, and it's so cool to see how far you've gotten in life!
I love watching their dramas and I like their music and language but I don’t think I could bear living there. You’re brave! Good luck and I love your updates!
usually i watched videos like this but i get bored half way through but because ive been watching you since the beginning of your youtube. i watched till the end. its amazing to witness someone evolve or grow from the past. Like i always say. ur always so inspirational and thanks for literally just existing cutie!
The video helped me a lot! I am trying to emigrate to Korea next year. And to know everything in regards to Emigration speeds up everything. I hope that my own documentary of emigrating to Korea will help others too! Thank you very much!
I watched this video for the first time over a year ago. This is my 3rd time watching it over again, because it will always be the most informative one I've seen, and the aesthetic is impeccable lmao ❤️
Hii I'm an exchange student in Korea and I came here 2 months ago! I enjoy my life here so much and I still hav 8 months to go. Planning about coming back here after I graduate I really found your video helpful!! I think you are a great person and I hope you'll enjoy everyday in Korea like you're doing now~~
Okay so I’m a young teen and I’m planning on moving to Korea with my sister. I have been looking up a whole bunch of stuff that I will have to do. I want to become a citizen there and work. I am finding everything I know I will need but I just can’t make sense of it all. I want to go to university and do part time jobs. I have calculated how much I could make if I started working now and how much I’ll spend and need. However I am scared it won’t work out and it all seems so complicated.
Hi, I was in korea for one year with the working holiday visa and I couldnt work as a model... one of the job you cannot do with the wh visa is entertainment job, cause for that you need the specific E6 visa. I tried to apply to some agency but its not that easy for them to sponsor you the visa. It cost a lot of time and money to them so they normally prefer to not do it.
This was the most helpful yet realll way of explaining things with moving to korea bc now u have made me get more prepared especially with papers i need to be realy lucky with them from now on
I'm thinking of moving to Seoul with my friends when I'm older but I don't think it would be that easy to find a house, job etc. cause I don't speak A lot of Korean but I'm trying to learn some words like Thankyou etc. I'm hoping you'll help me trough the videos :)
Wow! You moved to Korea with your own money and have a job at 19! I'm just so amazed haha tho I moved to another place at 16 for uni but my mom still pays for all my bills lol, now I'm back home after graduation but i dont have a job yet 😂😂😂
I honestly plan on moving to Korea when I get older I’m 13 and I take classes to speak Korean and I guess I’m kinda at a basic level but I plan getting my job around 14 so that I can save up and like get a modeling job or I want to go to Korea but as a tourists
Sounds like Helen is sixteen and did not really watch the video. Everything is explained to the smallest detail. Some need to watch the video more often.
Great Video! I have also been thinking about moving to Korea and your video made it a lot less scary. Although I don't have a masters degree, I already had job training so I hope I can use that to find a job there
I used to model but I'm focusing on high school right now. I think I want to model again but I'm kinda scared but I love Korea and the vibe there it's so beautiful so if I was to, I would definitely want to do it there
is it hard to live in Korea without being fluent in Korean? I would love to move when I'm older but I'm scared of not being able to do anything due to not biung fluent.
You can live there without knowing Korean but it's better if you know some common phrases to get around. I lived there for 8 months with only a basic understanding of Korean and I survived lol
So can anyone tell me why it costs so much for an apartment deposit in Korea? I have watched a few other vlogs of those who moved and they paid around the same amount or max 10k. Here in the US you only pay like 1 or 2k , sometimes even less. So why is it so much?
I came here to learn about the topic here....but you...you're just so pretty.. How are you so pretty?! My heart swooned and sighed. You're actually perfect (my vision of perfect) Just...stunning.
NEW SUB! WAIT ARE YOU DANISH?? Ej hvor fedt! Hej! Du lever virkelig min drøm om at leve i Korea, håber du har det mega godt og at du kommer til at vlogge og lave sådan her nogle videoer tit 🙈 er så glad for at møde en dansker der bor der!

Low rental fee

High deposit fee yes, but you get that money back when you move out so you're not losing that money.

@@Theredrain6 23* and dropped out
Your eyes are so luminous and pure, I am obsessed
The moment I saw the amount of money she spent to move in Korea
I lost my hope.
Damn, $13,003?! Hold on Korea, I'm moving over there.
Yay I’ve been waiting for this video! I love your new hair!
Hello Sissel AB, i can feel u. They way you are now reminds me a lot for the first time I moved to France from Indonesia 5 years ago. I had arrived at France at student for Master Degree in Engineering Informatics. Luckly enough, i came with erasmus scholarship, so no hard time for visa issues.
Since, i can speak french as fluent as english. I do bit difficult time when few people make joke about my french accent. But, i don't care. Nobody's perfect. As time goes by, I have lots of friends from another parts of world that makes me feels like home more than my home country (Indonesia).
As asian girl, you tends to act shy and submissive, but not here in France. You are free to do what you think better for you as long as you respect the right of others as human being.
Kindly interesting to meet you in person somehow whether in Europe or Korea.
Love from France
how and when did you learn Korean so fluently? Did you become fluent before moving there or did you take classes there? Thank you! I am so inspired I definitely want to live there. I love seeing your story !
Honestly, the whole visa situation's got me so confused that I don't even know how to begin planning my move anymore. Where there's a will, there's a way. But it seems nearly impossible now. I'm self-employed and I work remotely in the States, but I doubt that will cut it. I love the idea of working for Entertainment Co or something along those lines but I lack experience. My Korean's intermediate, learning still. One day!
such an amazing work opportunity! i remember watching some of your makeup tutorials like two years ago, and it's so cool to see how far you've gotten in life!
How do your eyebrows get better and better every video!
Srsly her brows!!!!i just love it💜💜
I love watching their dramas and I like their music and language but I don’t think I could bear living there. You’re brave! Good luck and I love your updates!
usually i watched videos like this but i get bored half way through but because ive been watching you since the beginning of your youtube. i watched till the end. its amazing to witness someone evolve or grow from the past. Like i always say. ur always so inspirational and thanks for literally just existing cutie!
The video helped me a lot! I am trying to emigrate to Korea next year.
And to know everything in regards to Emigration speeds up everything. I hope that my own documentary of emigrating to Korea will help others too! Thank you very much!
The weather and the atmosphere just looks so nice and peaceful I wish I was there 😩
I watched this video for the first time over a year ago. This is my 3rd time watching it over again, because it will always be the most informative one I've seen, and the aesthetic is impeccable lmao ❤️
I really think it is amazing that you did all that at such a young age. I really admire you.!
And I really love your earrings.
Talk about the language 😍 how are u doing with it and how much do u know until now, thank u 💕
Hii I'm an exchange student in Korea and I came here 2 months ago! I enjoy my life here so much and I still hav 8 months to go. Planning about coming back here after I graduate I really found your video helpful!! I think you are a great person and I hope you'll enjoy everyday in Korea like you're doing now~~
welcome to korea enjoy your stay . korea is a beautiful country and friendly people ♡
That’s crazy...... your 19!
OMG! I hope you make it big there in Korea! You just keep getting prettier and prettier every after vid.
Okay so I’m a young teen and I’m planning on moving to Korea with my sister. I have been looking up a whole bunch of stuff that I will have to do. I want to become a citizen there and work. I am finding everything I know I will need but I just can’t make sense of it all. I want to go to university and do part time jobs. I have calculated how much I could make if I started working now and how much I’ll spend and need. However I am scared it won’t work out and it all seems so complicated.
Hi, I was in korea for one year with the working holiday visa and I couldnt work as a model... one of the job you cannot do with the wh visa is entertainment job, cause for that you need the specific E6 visa. I tried to apply to some agency but its not that easy for them to sponsor you the visa. It cost a lot of time and money to them so they normally prefer to not do it.
Hello! Are there some conditions required? If yes, then what kind of?
@@faizalkhatik836 condition for what? Wh visa or the E6 visa?
Loved this video!
Can you please make an apartment tour?
Yess, I was thinking the same thing!
This was the most helpful yet realll way of explaining things with moving to korea bc now u have made me get more prepared especially with papers i need to be realy lucky with them from now on
wow stay safe there! i'm amazed and i look up to you on how responsible you are ^^
THE. EYEBROWS! i freakin' love your eyebrows omll
You must have gotten this a thousand times already but you are so pretty omg
if you look like a potato, no bachelor/master degree, doesnt speak korean.. you have no chance.
I'm thinking of moving to Seoul with my friends when I'm older but I don't think it would be that easy to find a house, job etc. cause I don't speak A lot of Korean but I'm trying to learn some words like Thankyou etc. I'm hoping you'll help me trough the videos :)
Damn you’re really out there living the best life
Thank you doll! I'll be moving there myself shortly and now i know what I need to have ready and what not!!! ♡
This really help a lot~✨ I'm really planning to move and work to Korea someday ❤️
Imagine she married w korean man🤔 her kids definitely will be so lovelyy😍
holyy sheettttt, i just imagined a child and like omg, it's a beaut! (i know i'm weird)
Her kids could be a kpop star
Vicky_Victoria or just models
taehyung and her is such a perfect match
@@kethrielle4204 get out of my brain
thanks for the tips
i just want to say you look almost flawless here (out of all your videos)
Thank you for inspiration❤️
Watching you moved to Korea is so much motivated.
Wow! You moved to Korea with your own money and have a job at 19! I'm just so amazed haha tho I moved to another place at 16 for uni but my mom still pays for all my bills lol, now I'm back home after graduation but i dont have a job yet 😂😂😂
Welcome to korea ！ It's so great to hear you living here.
You looks like an angel, so unreal... I had to replay 1:26 so many time because that was freaking cute 💕
This video was so helpful! Thank you and good luck with your journey! It is very impressive what you’re doing, keep it up!
Your eyes are so pretty. You could do modeling for ads that mainly focus on the face since I noticed you said you're not petite.
Petite is shorter than 5,5 foot.
She is much taller.
If you think petite is slim you are wrong.
A model needs to be very tall and well proportions.
ønsker dig det bedste i korea, håber alt går vel og du udlever dit liv!!!
I wish I can go there too in the future...Anyway,your eyes are so beautiful!🙂
I honestly plan on moving to Korea when I get older I’m 13 and I take classes to speak Korean and I guess I’m kinda at a basic level but I plan getting my job around 14 so that I can save up and like get a modeling job or I want to go to Korea but as a tourists
I want to move to Korea but Im really curious like when I’ve arrived to Korea where do I even go and buy like WiFi or get a visa.
You have to get a visa before coming here if you plan on working or staying for more than 3 months :)
Sounds like Helen is sixteen and did not really watch the video.
Everything is explained to the smallest detail. Some need to watch the video more often.
Omg the apartment deposit is so expensive.
She looks like Miranda Kerr!!! :)
Hey I am from India
This video was so useful it really helped me a lot, thanks u so much
This was like a slap on my face 😂 I'm such a dreamer 😂💔
Just discovered you and I’m a big fan! Greetings from a dutch in japan ☺️
I don't even want to live in korea I just clicked because the thumbnail looked aesthetic and stayed because of her
The prettiest human being alive.
Working hard to eventually end up in Seoul! Loving your content btw~
Sissel this is helpful !! Thank you for being so informative 💓
Great Video! I have also been thinking about moving to Korea and your video made it a lot less scary. Although I don't have a masters degree, I already had job training so I hope I can use that to find a job there
As a koreaboo I want to live there as well
Now please do an apartment tour if you haven’t already.
I used to model but I'm focusing on high school right now. I think I want to model again but I'm kinda scared but I love Korea and the vibe there it's so beautiful so if I was to, I would definitely want to do it there
an inspiration. I am planning on moving to korea hopefully by the end of 2019. I’ll be turn 20 then.
I feel like I will never make it to do that in my life. Like it seems so impossible...
Anyway, nice video, the prices are helpfull
Is it ok to ask you what blusher used in this video?
L'Oreal Paris "Enchanted Fruit". ^_^
I love Korea. Korea is beautiful and so are you! Enjoy.
is it hard to live in Korea without being fluent in Korean? I would love to move when I'm older but I'm scared of not being able to do anything due to not biung fluent.
it will do you good if you learn at least some basic Korean before moving..
You can live there without knowing Korean but it's better if you know some common phrases to get around. I lived there for 8 months with only a basic understanding of Korean and I survived lol
So can anyone tell me why it costs so much for an apartment deposit in Korea? I have watched a few other vlogs of those who moved and they paid around the same amount or max 10k. Here in the US you only pay like 1 or 2k , sometimes even less. So why is it so much?
now i understand i was planning to move to korea when i was like 16 18
She’s so pretty! ❤︎
I'm moving there this winter! I'm excited
I cant imagine being this beautiful 😢
Your face is beautiful if the picture is you.
You are typical African beauty.
Sissel is typical European beauty. In Korea she is unique.
Girl you already are
Your skin is flawless
I came here to learn about the topic here....but you...you're just so pretty..
How are you so pretty?!
My heart swooned and sighed.
You're actually perfect (my vision of perfect)
Just...stunning.
NEW SUB! WAIT ARE YOU DANISH?? Ej hvor fedt! Hej! Du lever virkelig min drøm om at leve i Korea, håber du har det mega godt og at du kommer til at vlogge og lave sådan her nogle videoer tit 🙈 er så glad for at møde en dansker der bor der!
I live in the Netherlands and I really really really want to live in Korea😭❤️ But I just don't know how and people in my country don't really help me nor is there information about moving.. My dream is to be a fitness coach in Korea but I don't think it's a job which will get me my visa.. I don't know what to do😢😭❤️
