It’s 1 am and I should be sleeping, but here I am instead and I do not regret it
Same just finished watching the video nite guys haha
Walter throwing Sam under the bus with the boyfriend/girlfriend question, mate, that is quintessentially Aussie right there. Walter and Sam are obviously good mates, lovely to see. Though I was born in South Africa, emigrated to Australia when I was 4, my family heritage is Scottish (each time I am there I feel that spiritual connection Walter was speaking of), so I have been learning Scottish Gaelic (Gaidhlig) for just over six months now. Obviously a long way to go but loving it! Thanks for the great video. (Chantelle do you miss Pro Nutro, Romany Creams, Fray Bentos spread, King Simba chips? Walter do you miss Tim Tams, Milo, Meat Pies, Pavlova etc, or can you both get hold of these things over there?)
@Michael Adamou Hi Michael. Look, to be honest mate, it has been so long! We arrived here in Oz in 1978, I was 4! I personally never felt anything but accepted, but I was young, and, as I say, it was a different time. Sorry can't be more informative.
@Michael Adamou I should say, with my parents, they both, particularly my Dad, wanted so hard to become Aussies, and assimilate, and I think other Aussies respected that a lot, if that makes sense.
Sam and John are so attractive. Hahah
Another enjoyable video! This Pagoda team has such a great rapport, and they are a pleasure to watch. I look forward to seeing their next video soon. It is fun to see this sharing of cultures and ideas. Although I have to say that Walter's love of blood sausage and pig's face stew paints a horrific image in my mind. Toodles...
Blood sausage is the most delicious food on earth. You must try it.
I’m in America.... John I’m jealous of you and I’m sad to say that I recommend that you stay there.
志瑜杨 totally agree. Its chaos over here
Loving Walter.💕💗❤️
Sam😍😍😍😍😍😍
I love watching your videos, especially because I'm a South African who wants to move to South Korea. This provides me with insight into how living in South Korea is like.
Hi Robyn, we will create more videos on how to live in Korea :) Thank you for your reply.
Enjoyed hearing all your answers and perspective. Moved by Walter wanting to blend-in, I can only imagine living somewhere when no one looks like you. Definitely something to ponder.
I LOVE PAGODA ONE!!! You guys should invite KoreanBilly as a guest on your channel sometimes as well!!!! Love all of Y’all!!
Yes! will do for sure!
i could listen to you guys talk about anything, youre such a great group. thank you for the video!
There is something that attracts me to sam...i mean in a good way...i love his personality...and also...he is incredibly handsome...nothing against others..but i feel i like more british things...😄
I'm lucky that I was born in a coutry where 80% of the population speaks 3 distinct languages. If I were to learn another language, it would definitely be Swedish. I know some words and phrases already just searching stuff in the internet but if I got the chance and motivation to learn it, I would. Nordic cultures are fascinating and I love it. Japanese is a close one. I love Japan.
I love watching these guys. Been a subscriber to this channel and to another channel where they are also featured for months now. I love watching stuff like this, English variation and all. Sam definitely is one of the main reasons why I initially clicked, I mean he's handsome af, but the content and conceot is what keep me watching their videos. Love it. 💖
Loved this video. Privacy is super important, sometimes people need to be reminded that just because y'all make videos online doesn't mean they need to know everything about y'alls personal lives. I'm really excited to see how this channel grows. You all have such complementary personalities, and as an American about to move to a foreign country, it's lovely to hear about how well you've adapted to the cultural differences, etc. I'm currently working on learning Korean, but it's been very slow going!
Loved the last question! John is so right, if you can communicate in a language, you can say you speak it, even if you're not 100% fluent.
For example, my first language is French, I'm fluent in English, and I speak Italian, even though I'm definitely not fluent, but I can have a conversation. I'm also learning Russian, but I won't say that I speak it because I can't have a conversation.
This was fun to meet the stars of the show. I'm curious if one of the instructors does the editing or is it someone else who does not appear on camera? The editing and pop-ups are often clever and engaging.
Hey Tom! This is Jason Kim who is in charge of this channel. I usually do the editing for them:) but it is so fortunate that we have great group members :)
Thanks for the editing. I love it. It's unique
I always watch your videos when I can't sleep cuz they're just great to listen to and settle down to
I'm currently learning Russian and have been for the past year and I absolutely love it! But I think anyone who can speak any language from the far east whether that's Korean, Japanese or Chinese I think is very impressive if you're a native English speaker, I wouldn't even know where to begin if I had to learn one of them!
8.33 She always makes me laugh 😆 Being friend with you guys must be amazing 😄
Thanks you for the comment :) Your comment does help us a lot!
PAGODA ONE_파고다원 Always :))
Glad to see you Walter is here! I didn't know that you are here! before I know I always visited into ur utube channel Kozzie TV for improving my eng skills. But you haven't uploaded videos last two months however I found you so I'm very happy and I like ur aussie accent.
Johhhhhhnnnnnnnnnnn!!!!!! 😍😍😍😍😍🤗🤗🤗🤗🤗🤗🤗🤗🤗💗💗💗💗💘💘💘
I need to have the whole boyfriend/girlfriend segment cued up for inquisitive clients, coworkers, and family members; your reactions and explanation of why a need for privacy are perfect and much better than my usual responses.
100% entertaining and positive
New subscriber to pagoda 1👍
Thank u guys for this amazing video I love it. I get what Walter said about spirutual connection, my mother's side is southern peruvian and since at very young age I've always wanted to visit her hometown, she told a lot of stories from there that I think at some point part of my heritage is related to there. Thank you again for this video and keep up the good work.
It's so interesting topic that the more their talk, open up their experience, a lot of good stuff out of them. I mean, it's inspiring me and make me see from their perspective, and understand them. Wicked! Highly recommended!
chantelle voice, charming.
Nice video but there were some other interesting questions to answer, hope you will release part 2
I like you're channel guys. Good content. From the American Southwest here.
I love Padoga one
Thank you!!!!!!! Florence!
Awwww someone likes italian at last. I was like, "yeah no one is gonna say italian." But I was wroong. Feels good, free italian lessons for you John ahahaha.
Ooo new outro? Nice video guys!
Chantelle was probably like the country's name gots South in it. Am going there
I should be asleep, but I was tempted...you win
Love the outro Music!
For I love everything about Korea the service, the safety , weather, the fashion and the culture is fascinating to me. Except for the food and that’s because I find the savoury is too sweet.
Love this channel! You guys have such a great dynamic and are so fun to watch. You guys make me crack up so much.
Answering the last question.
I'm an Indonesian. I was born and raised in West Sumatra and currently living in Jakarta. So, as a non Jakartan Indonesian, I naturally able to speak 2 languages as my native tongues, 1 is Bahasa Indonesia as the national language, the other is Minangkabau as the local language.
And I'd say that I'm fluent in English. I haven't take any official English test recently, so I don't know how much I have progressed, but if I am to take IELTS. I'd say my IELTS score would be around 7-8.
And as for the other languages I'd like to learn, I have quite a list actually. However, my ethnicity is Han Chinese, even though I'm 100% Indonesian (I'm the 3rd/4th generation Indonesian). So, I will say that the language that I'd like to learn the most would be Mandarin Chinese, because I'd like to learn about my root, and it'll be not as complete if I'm to learn it in English.
However, if I have reached the level of fluent in Mandarin Chinese, I'd like to learn another East Asian languages like Korean and Japanese. I also interested in learning Arabic, since the dominant religion of Indonesia currently is Islam, and the language of Islam is Arabic, and Bahasa Indonesia itself adopted so many Arabic words into its vocabulary. And learning Hindi, since India is quite close to Indonesia, not that close geographically though, and Hindi is the biggest of all Indian languages. I personally perceived it as a lingua franca for India (which soon will be the most populated country in the world), alongside obviously, English.
I also interested in learning some European languages, mainly: French, Spanish, Portuguese, German, and Russian. The main reason though is its global influence, except for German though. The German language is more because I perceive German is/would be the dominant language of the EU after English, especially since Brexit thing. The only counter balance to Germany's influence as of right now on the EU is France. That's why I want to study French as well. Also, I could see German become the lingua franca of the EU. And as for Russian, because it's the go to language for most of the former Uni Soviet countries. And for Spanish and Portuguese because they're the languages of the Americas
The other "niche" languages I'd like to be fluent on would be: Thai, Dutch, Hebrew, and Greek. Thai because Thailand is close to Indonesia, we're both South East Asian countries, we're neighbours, and we should learn each other languages. And Thai would be somewhat useful also in Laos, so that's why I choose Thai, even though I'm not as sure to learn it as the go to other South East Asian language, because Vietnamese and Tagalog are also promising. Dutch because Indonesia is a former Dutch colony, and we adopted lots and lots of words from the Dutch, even more than Arabic and Hindi combined! As for Hebrew and Greek mostly because they're the languages of the Bible. So, anyone (including me) who wants to know the Holy Bible better, the *MUST* learn Hebrew and Greek, at least its basic.
So there you go. My list of languages I'd like to be fluent on:
- Mandarin Chinese
- Korean
- Japanese
- Arabic
- Hindi
- French
- Spanish
- Portuguese
- Russian
- German
- Thai/Vietnamese/Tagalog (I haven't really decided yet among these 3, although for now, I'm leaning more towards Thai)
- Dutch (this one I assume would be easier to learn, once I have mastered German)
- Hebrew
- Greek
Guys, you should make videos where you chit chat more
I really enjoy watching your stuff
Funny Videos. I laughed like crazy when Walter threw Sam under the bus. I respect the privacy
I can speak English and Tamil fluently. I can speak , read and write (not very fluent but can manage) French, Hindi and Korean.
I'm Indian French and embarrassed to say that i'm not fluent in French because i was raised in India from 5yrs old and i want to be one among the native and started adapting to Indian culture that made be lose touch in French. Still i do stand out because of my thinking, my accent, my dressing sense. It is annoying to be odd one out or lets say Unique.
Aren't you a talented young one ! Thanks for sharing your story!
@@pagodaone_5697 Hahaha Thank you,
i love learning new languages. I'm learning German and i tried learning Chinese and Japanese. I'm giving it a break because of work schedule.
17:10 Nice choice. Italian. That's my native language. It would be jaw-dropping for us to, like, hear you say something in Italian. Hope you can achieve it!!!. :))
beautiful isn't ? 🥰 I wish I could have time to learn . My 1st is 🇪🇸
Great!!, that's my 2nd one.
You are all such beautiful people! Love these videos!
I'm following Sam on Insta 😍😍
Ritchie Li So am I, but he appearently doesn’t asnwer to the direct messages 😀
@@sevaratolibaeva8865 I don't want to harass him cuz I'd feel guilty
I need to expand my palate. All this talk about food! 🤤
Talk more about food, South African food. Ek is Afrikaans.
Do you know what would be funny if Chantelle just speaks Afrikaans just to confuse the guys 🤣🤣🤣
Yes! She should talk and teach them more afrikaans, dit sal interessant wees om hulle reaksies te sien😅
I'm already confused, South Africa is too diverse, there is no proprer way to inconvenience the enemy without there being friendly fire
I don't think she speaks much Afrikaans
파고다원 선생님들 진짜 너무 매력터지네요~ 저도 같이 엄청 웃으면서 봤어요ㅋㅋㅋ > 3
감사합니다! 자주자주 오셔요~주연님~
Can you do a video about answering some questions about the cast's home countries? Or some customs they have at home that is unusual or strange in Korea? For example, does Chantelle still have Braais in Korea? Or only when she comes home?
Love your videos! Please keep uploading and I would actually love to see you guys doing a mukbang >.
Hey Guys, I agree the food is great and i like spicy food. You should visit Jaksal Chicken, 11 Baekjegobun-ro 39-gil, Seokchon-dong, Songpa-gu, Seoul. I was in Seoul last year November, had an amazing time. I never felt so safe in my entire life while being in Seoul. I literally left my hotel every morning and returned the next morning while being there,it was an amazing experience. I received so many free gifts from shop owners, went shopping at a market can't remember the name but i know it's not far from Nine Tree Premier Hotel Myungdong 2. I left SA with one suitcase and came back home with 2 lol. I'm definitely going to plan another trip to Seoul after this COVID 19 pandemic, hopefully i can meet ya'll?
Guys, have a wonderful day further.
Cheers for now!
Guys, I am brazilian and I speak english and spanish, believe me, portuguese can be even harder than some of the asians languages... I don't know nothing about any of those languages but I do know portuguese is very very hard to speak with fluency when it's not you mother language... It can be easier to all of you learn the basic like read and even write because of the alphabet and letter, as our languages use the same, but maybe it's easier for you learn Korean, for example, than portuguese... there's so much rules and things like that, that even get confused sometimes... But I love my languages even I believe it's one of the hardest ones to learn
Lowkey wanted Chantelle to say Xhosa, but I still loves her...and the guys of course.😍
Japanese is an easy language for me to learn because it is similar to one of the languages that i speak (Shona - an african language) even japanese people find it easy to learn......i speak 7 languages and i am learning Korean and improving japanese
I speak three languages. And I'm learning my fourth language (Spanish).
And it is indeed hard to learn a language. I've tried Korean, Japanese, and Thai; but, I found out they're not my thing, so I stop after a week or so.
Great content, by the way 🙂
Always love your comment, Roman! hope you get the Spanish as well!
@@pagodaone_5697 I'm trying my best to learn it but it's hard. I hope I can really learn it because I really need it for my future career path.
Thanks for recognizing my comments. Continue creating great contents. It's enjoyable and at the same time educational 🙂
Great video once again :) Love all 4 of them ❤️ It's beautiful and I wonder if there is any other native English speaking country so we could have a 5th member and a 5th accent 🤣 Hmm and I speak 2 languages fluently, and understand a little bit of Hindi and Korean.. currently started Hebrew cos I want to understand original Bible 😅 Thanks guys for letting us get to know you better ❤️
Sam & Walter should date each other!
I just retired as an English teacher in Torrance, a primarily Korean community in Southern California, and moved to Oregon, a very white, fat people place. Gone from Korean restaurants on every corner to one, one Korean restaurant in the whole area. There are more in Portland, but yuck. Hate Portland. Before Covid-19, I went back to Cali every six weeks and ate jahjamyong every day. Love Korean food so much. That’s what I miss most about Cali.
I've been planning to study in Korea once im done with high school.Do you guys have any advice for me?
Lots of love from South Africa BTW
Just be open to new experiences and try not to assume anything. It can be shocking and hard to live in another country but the rewards are so much bigger than the drawbacks! :) As for Korea just come with an open mind and get ready to try new things (especially food!)
Rudi Pittaway , lol what a coincidence, I’m from South Africa and I want to study in Korea too😂.
@@lifeofjohn3993 Thanx.I really appreciate you helping me out.❤
@@_grizzlypanda_1916 what do u want to study for?
@@lifeofjohn3993 If you don't mind me asking...is it difficult to learn Korean and do i NEED to know how to speak Korean?
Walter looks a bit down in this video. Hope everything is ok with you.
14:49 I can teach you guys some French lol I still struggle with remembering any Korean since there’s so many possibilities for the same spellings 🤯
I would love to see a session on Korean idioms, please.
we'll keep that in mind :)
Re-upload?
Yes, there was a typo, had to re-upload :)
Asking about significant others is sort of frowned upon in Western countries, at least from my own experience in the US. Typically we share that when we're comfortable, but it's personal and fairly presumptuous to ask.
Can you do an episode on music like British music,American music and South African music and kpop please
it's actually coming up soon! you'll be able to see it ;)
It's so strange to see you all online. I would like to watch the content related the useful idioms & confusing words to Korean people.
Okay! we'll check it out ;)
When I heard BLOOD SAUSAGE. I was like OMG ,blood?
I wonder how Sam learned the Filipino word "marami", which means many/much/lots of?
OMG my birthday is 10 day from this
I don't think Japanese is all that hard. I learnt Japanese in uni and I took to it very easily and very quickly. The problem, though, is that I had to wait til I got to uni, because the only languages available at my middle school and high school were Spanish and French. I don't like either language (neither are very interesting to me, plus the histories associated with both languages in terms of colonization).
I'm currently learning Japanese all over again, German (a hefty chunk of my family tree is German), and Korean. Part of me wants to learn Mandarin, but that's sooooo much harder than Japanese and Korean, so I might just skip that one.
When I saw the language part so, chantelle can speak english and afrikaans, sam can speak english, walter can speak korean and english and john can speak english. And for me i was like "ok u know a few languages". And i can speak English 98% Indonesian (im from indonesia :D), 40.5% spanish, 12% sundanese, 30% banjarese (my mother is banjarese), and i can speak like 2% arabic. Soooooooooooooooooo :D
wow you know a lot of languages!!! that's amazing😎😎
@@pagodaone_5697 WOW helllooooo pagoda one :DDDDDDDDD. Thank you for the heart love thing :DD
btw im 10
PAGODA ONE ,
HELLOOO FROM TURKEYY 💜🇹🇷
샘 진짜 잘생겼다 ❤️❤️🩹
I registered recently this One. I wanna know ‘Which music genre is popular in your country? ‘
KPop of course
Just so hot
Where’s Australian bella gone??
She is not with Pagoda anymore m.m
I dont mean to brag but i can speak:
1(my native language I.e. Hindi) + 1 (English) +1 (french)+ 0.5 (korean) + 0.5 (japanese, I can speak but I cant read and write😅)
Its actually my hobby to learn new languages, plus being a high school student, I've had a lot of opportunities to learn new languages in school, for ex: French... but I learnt most of these myself from the net....
P.S: WHY DID I SEE THIS VIDEO SO LATE?!?!?😪😪
반갑습니다! Charvi! Welcome to Pagoda One!!!
안녕하세요!! Pagoda one!!!!!😍😍
Thanks for the greeting🥰 Hi! My name is Tanishka😊
Hi guys I am from Malaysia and I can speak 5 languages/dialects. I speak English obviously, I speak Malay as it’s my national language and I also speak 3 different Chinese Dialects which is Cantonese, Mandarin and Hokkien. Malaysia being a multicultural country has a mixture of Malay, Chinese, India, aborigines and etc so it is quite common to see people in Malaysia to speak at least 2 to 3 different languages. Btw have any of you guys been to Malaysia before?
No I haven't been able to visit yet but I have seen so many pictures and video and I really want to vacation there! I have several students who have lived, worked, or visited there and they always give a glowing review :)
존의인생Life of John you should find time to come visit and see for yourself the different cultures that coexist in one country and all the races live in harmony. Besides that the food here is one of a kind because of the mixture of different cultures the food is influenced by the use of different herbs and spices that let to the creation of many delicious dishes.
France 👏🎉🇫🇷🇫🇷
I'm Japanese! Walter, thank you for choosing Japanese :) haha I'm glad to hear that.
thank you for your reply, Reika! looking forward to seeing you more :)
Urgh! After watching all the videos ,I'm tempted to come to Korea!(more of jealous)
Hahaha Coupang!!!!!! ◡̈
파고다원 중국어 버전도 있으면 좋겠어요!
Damn making me wanna move to south Korea
09:06 조국을 선뜻 택할 수 없는 질문
I dont mean to embarrass Sam, but he is a very handsome man. I prefer cute English men. My long term boyfriend is English. When is he coming back?
Afrikaners is plesierig, dit kan julle glo
저번부터 느낀건데 호주 사람은 억지로 촬영하는 느낌..
그렇게 보이셨나요?ㅜ.ㅜ 수업이 조금 많아서 피곤하셨나봐요... 월터쌤 그래도 참여 잘 해주주시고 아이디어도 많이 내주시는 편인데요. 혹시나 쌤께도 불편한 점이 없으신지 여쭤볼께요..... ^^;; 좋은 하루 보내세요~
