- During our time in South Korea, we met and filmed with a really awesome old school gentleman named Mr. Cho 💈❤️ He is the owner of the eclectic 석조이발관 Stone Barbershop in the 돈암동 Donam-dong neighborhood of Seoul 🇰🇷
Thanks so much for watching our most recent haircut video with Mr. Cho 🙏🏼 Check it out here if you missed it👇🏼
• 💈 Is This The Best Old...
While researching barbershops in Seoul, I found one photo online showing the exterior of a barbershop that looked interesting to me. When I visited the barbershop I immediately knew it was a one of a kind shop and the barber had a long interesting history.
Mr. Cho is 83 years old and is from a rural area in the southern part of Korea. Tragically, his parents passed away when he was 8 years old.
Alone in the world, he decided to travel to Seoul as he had heard people around him talking about there being work in the town. He didn’t really comprehend where it was nor that it was the capital.
He smuggled himself onto a train he was told was going to Seoul and when the conductor came around asking for tickets, an older woman hid him under her long traditional Korean dress.
Once he arrived at Seoul Station, he was lost as he did not know anyone. On his own and hungry, a man noticed him at the station and offered him a job. It turned out the man had sold him to a local baker for labor and he had to work the debt off!
About a year later, not far from the bakery, he noticed a shop where men would enter with long messy hair and then reappear neatly groomed. It was a barbershop and it was this shop that first sparked his interest in barbering 💈
Stone Barbershop has been in business for over 50 years. It is actually a converted garage that was built into the side of an embankment. An underground staircase once connected the shop to a house above, and Mr Cho told us the owner of that house used to come down from his home for a haircut! 💇🏻♂️
The house has since been replaced by an apartment complex, and the staircase was blocked off.
Passionate about volunteer work, every week you will find Mr. Cho in the countryside giving free haircuts to senior citizens who are unable to travel to barbershops ❤️
Also, he enjoys recycling and reusing things. Mr. Cho finds things people throw away that still have use and he gives the items to people who need them or want them.

83 years old, and he still has remarkable dexterity in his hands and fingers.
I was just thinking that!!
Yes chef Andy 😂😂😂
Do you think maybe he should have started the shave with a new razor? Instead of switching to what I assume was a new blade part way through the shave? Though I question if it was a new razor as he didn't unwrap it.
Mr. Cho is a kind person
And the whole aesthetician and feeling of the place he runs is amazing. Keep at it Mr. Cho
I love that space. There’s a story and photograph everywhere you look. The acoustics are also particularly interesting in this space.
Does anyone else skip to the last half of shaving videos to see if there is a face or scalp massage? Haha
yes greetings from south africa 🖖🏻 regards dapper shaves
Never with Haircut Harry’s videos. Each is a gem, and all deserve to be watched start to finish.
Yes lol
Yas. Best part of the shave.
Always 😊
Great video, like always, Harry. Mr. cho is an absolute gem with a heart of gold. May God bless this man.
greetings from south africa 🖖🏻 regards dapper shaves
Bardzo zazdroszczę ci Harry tych wspaniałych podróży połączonych z wielkimi mistrzami! Wszystkiego dobrego!
Excellent video Harry thank you so much was Looking forward to this thank you❤Love from Dublin Ireland🇮🇪
Fantastic!!! Submarine barber!
OMG Harry!!! Where do you keep finding these treasure trove barber shops!!! I could literally sit there for hours, just taking the place in. I love this little gold mine of .........stuff! Doesn't always have to be spit polished to be great, this gentleman is definitely old school but that is not derogatory in any means. You can just sense the wisdom, and as someone else said.......the dexterity in his hands is incredible for his age. A true stalwart!!
Amazing video Harry ❤❤❤🙏🙏🙏
great shop! greetings from south africa 🖖🏻 regards dapper shaves
It doesn’t take a fancy place to provide quality! Well done.
he looks like a Jedi master barbering for living for now.
Another hidden gemstone harry! This place is full of magic and you are living the dream! I am sure that his place is older than he his and the man himself shaves like a professional what a skills. He has no clue he's gonna be famous on harry's youtube channel 😂😂
Takie miejsca gdzie "czas się zatrzymał" wydają się magiczne i mają niesamowity urok w sobie ❤
Nothing fancy, just an honest shave excellent
keeping things simple. greetings from south africa 🖖🏻 regards dapper shaves
Mr Cho is amazing, 83 old and still cool 🤙🏻
Love the look of the shop it's great thankyou harry awesome episode 👏
Lot's of love from Germany 🇩🇪
I love this barber! Great work!
Very unique shop
Wonder how many cuts and shaves Mr Cho has given in over 50 years?! He could probably do this blindfolded. Great video
Id guess none! greetings from south africa 🖖🏻 regards dapper shaves
@@dappershaves ?
I knew this was coming as at 17:38 in the haircut video with this wonderful Korean barber Harry suddenly has no stubble lol. Great editing as if you blinked you'd miss it.
Great vid as always!
Not going to lie, I half expected Wall-e to roll in and stash something
Mr. Cho and Mr. Lee have the same blow-dryer!
20:45, Mr Cho calls him Mr Baby Face.
greetings from south africa 🖖🏻 regards dapper shaves
Most of the time I’m jelly of the places that you make videos of. With this one I’m glad you’re making interesting content. 🤔. Nothing but love ❤️ 🤘🇨🇦🤘
Mr. Cho is a very quiet, stealthy barber.
all the barbershops in the world should have in their screens all the videos of harry in a loop 24/7.
One of the greatest atmosphere what i see, thank for haircut video.
You know it's places like this that you find the real character of both the location and the people who live there. Definitely not something you will find in some travel guide and THAT is one of the main reason you are my favorite ASMR Travel Barber Channel Harry! ♥💈✂👍
wonderful shave. greetings from south africa 🖖🏻 regards dapper shaves
@@dappershaves greetings from Nigeria!! Wonderful wonderful!
Belle vidéo.. tout en sagesse et simplicité..
Merci, Harry !
Love the shop and it’s interesting quality ❤
Mr Cho, le meilleur Asmr de la chaîne 😊👍
Bravissimo Mr Cho!
You find gems all over the world! 🤩
Sure, we have places like Elizabeth’s Barber shop but something is just so cool and charming about THIS place.
Soooooooooo goooood!!!
Thank you Jason 🙏🏼 Loved meeting Mr. Cho and hearing his story! Hope all is well :)
You’re a brave man Harry.
They have some very interesting barber shops in korea. Hope your doing great Harry 🙏
Looks like we can get spare parts for the Boeing 747 also in this shop...
125 / 5.000
In my opinion if you look closely you will find the Holy Grail, some pieces of the Shuttle and a couple of three year old cheeseburgers!
😂😂
@@comesefosseantani231 🤣
This one is special ❤
Well done. I bet Mr. Cho has some amazing stories.
for sure, many stories. greetings from south africa 🖖🏻 regards dapper shaves
Lush, what a amazing little place & a mint barber 👍🏻
greetings from south africa 🖖🏻 regards dapper shaves

Truely a great video ❤
Awesome to hear you enjoyed the new video with Mr. Cho!💈🙌🏼 Have a great week :)
Master Cho for sure.
Perfect. Perfect
The Precision is amazing
Seems like you must be at least 70 years old to become a barber in Korea ;)
Old dude has a lot of stuff in there. Great video and barber. Like the towel technique.
Hi Harry......cuando vienes a Mexico nos encantaria verte en este pais donde existen muchas barberias de calidad...saludos💈💈💈💈💈✈✈✈
Existe una en Torreón que me gustó mucho, en avenida las palmas coahuila, torreón, me dio masajito al final 😊
I've watched this 3x now I'm bald
Fantastic
me relajan mucho estos videos
This place looks awesome! I seriously would go there if it was my local place.
Good job ❤❤❤
This is some real "barbershop designed by Hayao Miyazaki" vibes
😂 I was thinking the same you can just imagine it being In the opening of an anime 😅
You should have asked him what’s the beauty secret to still looking good at 83.
Hi Harry! Love the content!
Hey Andrew - thanks so much 🙏🏼 Hope you are well!
Good stuff👍
now i expect to see Gizmo the Mogwai jumping from anywhere :p
Amazing video 👏
Thanks for watching - glad you liked the new video :) It was great to meet Mr. Cho and hear his story!
Fab video Harry. Barber wasn't taking No for an answer when he wanted to wash your hair. He has every piece of paraphernalia, including a piece from a guillotine it seems, where you rest your head 😂. Great shave though.
Grear video!! Thank you from Japanese barber lover. 🎌
Dude this Shop is packed , but i love it and i would love it to get a shave there :)
Finally, the answer to the question, "Where did all my scissors go"?? ❤
Commenting for the algorithm.
Nice, indeed a real supporter🤝
Appreciate it Wes 🙏🏼
Смелый поступок , Гарри) не сменная опасная бритва и ТД. Мрр Чуу конечно молодец 🙏
greetings from south africa 🖖🏻 regards dapper shaves
This looks like one of the sharpest razors I’ve seen so far… the whiskers looked liked they melted off.
Wonderful story about Mr. Cho in the description.
Ur vidio just so, Amzed me for years .keep it up Harry take❤ frm india
I just noticed, the part where Harry's about to go for his hairwash till the end is exactly as the haircut vid with Mr Cho 😂😂😂

The smoothhest old man ever

keep doing what you love to do
Great content and as a long time fan I wait on he notifications. May I make a request for compilations of lathering of the shaving cream or sound of hair washing?
Super super odcinek

I would trust Mr.Cho with my life
Ammiro il tuo coraggio...
Ha le mani bellissime ,da giovane uomo .😮
True
Hello Harry. Süper video.
Glad you like the video with Mr.Cho! Thanks for watching 🙏🏼
"Eclectic" NEXT LEVEL
Hey Harry, I have suggestion for your up coming videos. Why not put some microphone in your shirt so we could hear more when you're being shaved. 😊
Scratch “get shave in closet” off the bucket list
It's a small room, the items you see are given as gifts and donations to the needy, as well to those who would like to get them. Harry explained this in the description of the hair wash and hair cut/styling video with Mr Cho. I've also seen what storage rooms of ngo's look like, and it's not far from this, full with items given by kind people, to be used as donation to the poor and the homeless.
@@Nazragath you don’t need to defend anyone. It’s just a quip. No worries😇
I wonder if all the stuff in his shop is a collection of things he’s been given over the years…
Its almost like you are getting a shave in the back of a JCPenny
Mind blowing place in so many different ways ! If one day there is an earthquake - that shelf above the sink.....
Many thanks.....all the way from London.
that vintage korean hairdryer 💯
