Shadowing Practice: A Day Shopping in English | Comprehensible Input Vlog - Learn English Speaking with Video
Creando lección...
1
Welcome back to a new video guys.
2
Today we're gonna be learning English using comprehensible input while shopping at the biggest premium outlet mall in Korea.
3
All of this behind me is one mall.
4
Premium, available, cheap.
5
This is a little motor coach.
6
Indoors and outdoors.
7
Might as well, but Monday silk scarf.
8
Similar to a sweatshirt.
9
A lot of luxury built.
10
Bankrupt.
11
So, start the word count.
12
And let's go.
13
We're waiting at the bus stop right now.
14
We're going to take a red line bus to get all the way to Baju.
15
which is where the premium outlet mall is, where we're going to be doing shopping.
16
So we got to wait for the bus.
17
It's going to be here in six minutes, according to this.
18
It's one of those big buses, like a coach bus with like individual seats.
19
and there are only a certain amount of seats, so if you don't get a seat, You have to wait till the next bus.
20
- No, or you could stand.
21
- No. - I've stood in one of them before.
22
- Well, maybe if it's completely full and it's one of the last buses, yeah.
23
But usually, in my experience, they'll be like, "Nah, we're full." And I'm like, "Aurelio?" On the maps, it tells you how many seats are available.
24
And this one says there are 44 seats available.
25
And there's only three people ahead of us.
26
Yeah.
27
- You think they're going to be on the same bus?
28
- 44 seats.
29
So we have to wait for our bus because some people decided to park right where you're supposed to drive.
30
That's a big storm.

33
There's nobody in the car.
34
And the taxi pulled up right as the bus was about to pull around.
35
Dude, that's hilarious.
36
Okay, so the bus is here.
37
Now we're gonna get in this bus and it's gonna be like a 35 -40 minute bus ride straight to Paju, which is kind of nice, so.
38
Let's go.
39
- Oh, what's it say here?
40
That's the prices, eh?
41
- Yeah, 3 ,200 won.
42
No, it's pretty good, it's cheap.
43
This is a long bus.
44
- Yeah, $3?
45
- Let's do it.
46
It's actually nice and empty.
47
Usually though there's two buses back to back so now in like three, four minutes there's gonna be another bus that comes
48
so they have two buses that come back to back
49
because I think they don't want people standing
50
so although they do have like hand railing to hold on to they'll probably say, "Oh, just get on the next bus." There's two buses that come back to back,
51
but then you have to wait 30 minutes if you miss those two buses.
52
The buses come every 15...
53
some 45 minute intervals.
54
intervals.
55
That's just the time between the buses and usually during the weekday it's about 30 minutes.
56
So online it said every 30 minutes there's going to be a bus coming.
57
It's not too bad, so we just timed it so we got here for the first bus.
58
If it was too full, we could get on the second bus.
59
That comes only a few minutes after.
60
So there's two buses, and then a 30 -minute break, and then two buses.
61
This specific type of bus is a coach or a motor coach.
62
Depending on where you are, you could call it something different.
63
I just call it a coach.
64
or Coach Bus, but we are in a Coach and Coach-- And coaches tend to have nicer seats.
65
You can see Every person has an individual seat.
66
So this is a seat, they have their own armrest.
67
They also have a hand grip right here to hold on to.
68
They have a little pouch here you can store, maybe your phone or something there.
69
And there's more leg room.
70
And also usually everyone gets a seat in a coach bus in a normal, standing bus like you see throughout the city that we've been in,
71
those do not have their own seats for everyone.
72
So you usually have to stand and stuff, but yeah.
73
This is what a coach bus is.
74
And you also can have air.
75
Airflow and lights, but yeah That's what a coach bus looks like.
76
and we'll see you guys in Paju.
77
Yo, what are you working on?
78
Yo, I'm working on my channel right now.
79
I just started, I'm going to be posting once a week if you guys want to check it out.
80
So if you guys want to follow Leon on YouTube, he's posting comprehensible input vlogs here, Nomadapedia.
81
It's in the description.
82
OK, so we've just arrived at a latte premium outlet here and Paju.
83
It's huge.
84
It's like a huge shopping mall.
85
Complex.
86
Is it all indoors or outdoors?
87
No, it's indoors and outdoors.
88
So when we walk in there, this whole thing is, and it's like two separate buildings.
89
I think there's a stream in between.
90
But it's like, imagine a complex, like all around shopping.
91
And in the middle, it's like a grassy area and stuff.
92
Everything you see from here on out, is part of the Voughty outlet mall, so everything.
93
There are different malls.
94
Honestly, we go to Uniqlo first since it's right here.
95
Might as well, but Some people parked their bikes here.
96
- On the bike rack.
97
Kind of cool actually.
98
It's like Just a lot, a lot of shopping.
99
I don't even know where everything is but the sports Village is over there
100
so we'll probably end up over there but Let's start inside and then we can go through the buildings.
101
in a warm area.
102
So let's go in here.
103
And it's Monday, so hopefully it's not too busy to do some shopping.
104
But everything here should be on a discount.
105
That's like why people come to outlet malls and stuff, because outlet malls are like an hour outside of Seoul.
106
But the only reason people come is because stuff is heavily discounted
107
because it's like last year's stock or they just have more discounts here.
108
Oh, this is a nice scarf, actually.
109
I think it's the Koss one with the XX.
110
40 ,000, yeah.
111
Cost?
112
Well, right here.
113
Cost.
114
What's cost?
115
It's just my brand.
116
This person.
117
I've seen that, but I didn't know it was a clothing brand.
118
No, I think it's like a character.
119
Actually, I want to check if they have sweatshirts.
120
What about the quarter zip?
121
I thought it would be warmer in here.
122
I'm being honest.
123
So today we have a couple of goals.
124
I want to buy a rain jacket.
125
That's one thing.
126
I also want to see what kind of shoes they have.
127
Perhaps I'll buy a pair of shoes.
128
I'm not sure yet.
129
A scarf.
130
Maybe I want to buy a scarf, depending on the price.
131
If they are discounted, I'm interested in buying a scarf.
132
On top of that, when you say shoes, yeah, shoes.
133
My shoes are busted.
134
Yeah, but it doesn't match the fit.
135
Yeah, the fourth thing.
136
I'm interested in is a sweatshirt.
137
Yeah, but like a nice burgundy sweatshirt.
138
And then the last thing, the fifth item is a gray zip up sweater.
139
gray zip up sweater.
140
And this is kind of like the sweatshirt I'm interested in, like a nice burgundy.
141
I wonder where this one came from.
142
Oh, yeah, there's discounts here.
143
Oh, that's the sweater you want.
144
No, not the same color.
145
This is kind of like similar to a sweatshirt.
146
It's more like a long sleeve, long sleeve shirt.
147
But this is kind of like what I wanted in this color.
148
This size is extra large, so maybe that's a little bit too big.
149
They call this a crew neck sweater, I guess so.
150
Crew neck sweater.
151
But maybe large is more of my size.
152
And it's merino wool.
153
The material is merino wool.
154
And it's made in Vietnam.
155
I wonder if I could try it on.
156
Does merino wool shrink when you wash it?
157
Oh yeah.
158
It says machine washable.
159
Oh, then maybe it's pre -washed.
160
Says machine washable.
161
Or do you think it's best to get extra large then?
162
'Cause The medium fits me perfect, so then I size it up to large for the machine washer.
163
Well, I don't think it's going to shrink that much as long as you don't dry it.
164
I usually dry the life out of it.
165
Let me try both.
166
I want to go see if I can try these on.
167
Because marina wool is nice.
168
This makes you like not smell, right?
169
Yeah.
170
It's like antibacterial.
171
And what does that mean?
172
Just means that it doesn't hold like odors or dirt easily.
173
So you don't like smell dirty and it stays cleaner for longer.
174
Yeah.
175
Okay, good to know.
176
Let me see if I can try these on fitting room.
177
Yeah, down here.
178
And I do have like so many layers.
179
I have this coat, this sweatshirt, and then I have another sweatshirt.
180
And then I have the heat tech underneath.
181
I have like one, two, three, four layers.
182
I'm going to go try it on and I'll be back out.
183
Want more practice?
184
Get the workbook for this lesson on my website and review the vocabulary, grammar and real English from this video.
185
So now I'm walking through the passageway, the passageway.
186
This just connects the two buildings.
187
what I can see like different buildings.
188
Come over here.
189
There are six different buildings, right?
190
We just hit the first one.
191
There's another one right across, but then there's four more down there, each with a passageway connecting them.
192
So you see that green park in between over the road?
193
That's a passageway connecting the buildings.
194
And right now we're going to enter the Fashionville.
195
Over there is Luxuryville and over there is Sportsville.
196
So we're gonna hit all of them and see what they have.
197
Let's continue to fashion bill down this way.
198
Okay guys, we have been into a couple stores like Columbia Black Yak and stuff to look for a rain jacket, but I haven't found a rain jacket.
199
They're all like very expensive, not really on discount.
200
So I think the last store we'll go check out is Patagonia, but I don't think I'll be able to get the rain jacket today.
201
I'm not sure.
202
Unless Patagonia has a deal on their 3L, Torrent Shell, specifically black and large, then I'll get that one.
203
But if they don't, I'm not sure.
204
Dude, it's cold.
205
We're in the mall right now, but it's not heated.
206
So it's cold like, That's chilly.
207
You kind of see my breath, it's cold.
208
Anyways, let's go to Patagonia.
209
Okay guys, we're in New Balance right now.
210
We're looking at shoes and these things are heavily discounted.
211
50 % off.
212
That's a good deal.
213
But New Balance sells shoes and also other clothing items, but mainly shoes.
214
They're really popular for their shoes.
215
Oh, look at these.
216
These things look kind of cool.
217
They're really popular because they're comfortable, right?
218
Yeah, they're the most comfortable shoes I've owned.
219
You haven't owned any Asics.
220
Yeah.
221
Asic gel, very comfortable.
222
That's what I've heard.
223
I've never owned any either, but I would like to own them.
224
But I don't see any of their popular styles here.
225
Yeah, those 550s are pretty popular. Where?
226
On that first row.
227
And here's some 2002s.
228
Those are super popular.
229
That's what I wear.
230
That? yeah that style those things are dad shoes is
231
that a good deal that's a good i paid like 240 us dollars for these ones what Yeah.
232
Dude, why would you even buy those?
233
Actually, it wasn't that much.
234
It was just under 200.
235
That's a lot.
236
It was still a lot though.
237
But these shoes, these are the most comfortable.
238
They're running ones, especially these like 1080s.
239
These are so comfy.
240
They look because look at all this foam.
241
It looks like and they make an even bigger one.
242
Two inches.
243
1280. And that's super thick.
244
Wow.
245
They're down there.
246
Actually, I can see why they would be comfortable.
247
Oh, the more.
248
So this is the thickest one you can get.
249
Dude, these things will make you like two inches taller.
250
That's crazy.
251
Yeah.
252
a pair two years ago and they were crazy.
253
These things actually look really comfortable.
254
If you look from like the top down, they're so big.
255
Yeah.
256
So they were like really big shoes on me.
257
Yeah.
258
Like I could see like it looks super comfortable.
259
Wow.
260
Look at that.
261
What are these for running?
262
Yeah.
263
Okay, let's bounce then.
264
I'm not going to buy shoes today.
265
Especially running shoes.
266
These really look like guys.
267
These are like the super discounts on the back.
268
So it tells you right here your size.
269
Heavily discounted.
270
Over here?
271
I'm like 9 .5.
272
So I'd be 275 in Korea.
273
UK 9.
274
European 42 .5.
275
Yeah.
276
I kind of want to find the food court, so we're going to use this map to find it.
277
How do we even start?
278
Food and beverage.
279
- Oh.
280
Luxury -built Chinese restaurant.
281
I wonder if they have like an actual food court.
282
Let's head to that mall and I think we could go through a passageway up here.
283
So let's go up the escalators, across the passageway and then find the food court in Luxuryville.
284
Let's go.
285
Down there, that's where the parking garage is parking garage or parking lot or parking area.
286
It's where people park their vehicles, down there in the basement.
287
We're going through this walkway to Luxuryville, and Luxuryville looks huge, just like that whole building.
288
Sportsville is that building there.
289
First building we were at was the Youth Cultureville, and we've just finished at Fashionville.
290
So we've completed two out of four buildings.
291
Fashionville also goes down over there.
292
Did we go there?
293
- Yeah, that's where they had the Nepa.
294
- Oh, Nepa.
295
Yeah, okay, but I think the biggest one is Luxuryville.
296
People must love their luxury.
297
I see Mont Blanc, Coach, a bunch of other ones, but the food court is over here apparently, so let's see if we can get it.
298
There's literally a stream going through this shopping complex.
299
This outlet mall, it's so big.
300
And there's a lot of apartments in the background there.
301
And I have an announcement for you guys.
302
I'll be posting my shadowing stories on my second channel, Volka.
303
The link to my channel will be in the description.
304
So make sure to subscribe and watch videos there.
305
So we're in the food court right now, and that is our revolving sushi restaurant.
306
We're not going to get that.
307
We're in the food court.
308
and we're going to look at every restaurant, see what they have, and then decide what we want to eat.
309
Unless we see something good right off the bat, but let's keep on looking.
310
We have our food here.
311
This is bulgogi.
312
This is a big bowl of rice and then you know my sides kimchi, radish, salad and then this like soup.
313
We're at the food court now and we just ordered our food
314
and we had to go pick it up
315
and then we brought it back here and now we're ready to eat lunch at the food court.
316
The food court is pretty small.
317
There wasn't a lot of options or variety
318
but this looked like this was something everyone was getting so we decided to get this.
319
Liam got the same thing, but you can see this is squid, right?
320
Yeah.
321
So he got squid in his, and yeah, this is what we're going to eat
322
and then after this I think we'll go to the very final building which is the sports So stick around guys, we'll see you at the Sportsville.
323
Amen.
324
Thank you.
325
- Thank you.
326
So we just ate, but now we're walking on the very top floor of this building, and there are dinosaur statues here, dinosaurs.
327
- Is that snow?
328
- Yeah, and there's snow on the ground.
329
- Oh my gosh.
330
- I guess it's been snowing lately but yeah, Tyrannosaurus Rex the Tyrannosaurus Rex.
331
Oh, and look at that one.
332
I didn't even see him.
333
Look at this huge.
334
long neck.
335
But let's go to Toys R Us because didn't they go bankrupt in North America?
336
Yeah, in Canada.
337
Or actually no, in the US.
338
Toys R Us there.
339
What a suspect.
340
And I remember going to Toys R Us when I was younger, but now I think they're...
341
Most of them are closed down now in Canada because the company went bankrupt.
342
Toys R Us went bankrupt, so they closed a lot of locations.
343
But I haven't seen a Toys R Us in many, many, many, many years.
344
But I do want to walk into this Toys R Us.
345
Yeah, actually there's a sign that says no filming, so we're not going to go in there.
346
We'll just go down instead.
347
No filming.
348
Yeah, they knew you were coming.
349
Yeah, I guess so.
350
You kind of see what they have here.
351
Those kind of look like Legos.
352
I think they do have Legos too.
353
Oh, probably.
354
And that's Nike.
355
Nike Kids.
356
Let's go down.
357
Let's go to the very last part.
358
Which is over there, which is the Sportsville.
359
Let's see what they have there.
360
I know there's a huge Nike store on the other side.
361
Are you a Nike boy?
362
Not really a big Nike fan.
363
Do you wear that Nike Tech?
364
I would wear the Nike Tech.
365
These guys make some really good clothes too, but it's more like guys like suits - But I'm kinda looking for those slip -on leather shoes.
366
- These guys will sell that.
367
These guys make hunting style outdoor gear.
368
- Yeah, these stores are more like formal fashion which is not really my style, although I would like, those look like the Margiela and Oh.
369
- This is the Margiela store.
370
Sunglasses store.
371
- Africa.
372
They got the Oakleys.
373
Oh, those are the eye jackets.
374
I almost got those.
375
but it did not fit me.
376
But this mall is not too busy today.
377
It's pretty empty.
378
It's not busy because it's Monday.
379
It's also kind of far out.
380
Like this town is like, it feels small.
381
make a trip to an outlet mall for like the whole day.
382
Yeah.
383
This outlet mall doesn't have much stuff though if I am being honest.
384
The last big outlet mall I went to was in Busan, and it was like way out of the city.
385
Like, you had to take a bus to get there, but it was massive like this one, too.
386
It is massive, just not busy.
387
I think over here is the passageway.
388
Okay guys, now we're in the Sportsville and we're going down to the men's and adults
389
section and area and right there is the Nike store.
390
This is a huge store, but I don't really need anything sports wise.
391
I already looked for my rain jacket and I couldn't find it unfortunately, but yeah.
392
Nike is right here.
393
Maybe let's go check out the Nike tech.
394
- Last time I was on the Nike outlet, I bought my shorts that I wear.
395
Okay guys, we just went through that There was kind of like nothing in the sports section, so we just decided to come out.
396
And we actually have to catch a bus very soon.
397
So we decided let's quickly go through the sports field.
398
That was the last area.
399
And then let's run and get that bus.
400
Because if not, we're gonna have to wait 30 minutes.
401
Because like I told you guys, 30 minute intervals. So run.
402
I'll leave Leon and I'll go.
403
Bro just gave up.
404
Yo, is this a pipe?
405
Yeah, oil pipe.
406
But this outlet mall is premium outlet mall is huge.
407
Like we said there were six, but I was wrong.
408
Four main buildings, Sportsville, Luxuryville, Fashionville, and Youth Cultureville.
409
But we saw them all.
410
I think I preferred just a normal department store, to be honest, because some of the buildings were cold.
411
What about the deals?
412
I didn't really see any deals that good.
413
So I didn't buy anything today.
414
Like I don't have anything on me.
415
I like that Uniqlo cashmere thing, but I can buy that at any Uniqlo.
416
So I decided not to buy it here.
417
I to where I live just in case I want to return it
418
so I don't have to come all the way back here.
419
Yeah, besides that, I didn't see a sweater or a hoodie I like, but now we're going to go catch that bus and we'll see you guys on the bus.
420

422
The premium outlet mullet is where it tells you how many seats are available.
423
And this one says there are it's pretty good.
424
It's cheap.
425
This is a long bus or a motor coach, depending on where you are.
426
Oh, it's indoors and outdoors.
427
So when we walk in there, first, since it's right here, might as well.
428

¿Qué es la Técnica de Shadowing?
Shadowing es una técnica de aprendizaje de idiomas respaldada por la ciencia, desarrollada originalmente para la formación de intérpretes profesionales y popularizada por el políglota Dr. Alexander Arguelles. El método es simple pero poderoso: escuchas audio en inglés nativo y lo repites en voz alta de inmediato, como una sombra que sigue al hablante con solo 1-2 segundos de retraso. A diferencia de la escucha pasiva o los ejercicios de gramática, el shadowing obliga a tu cerebro y músculos de la boca a procesar y reproducir simultáneamente patrones de habla reales. Las investigaciones muestran que mejora significativamente la precisión de la pronunciación, la entonación, el ritmo, el habla conectada, la comprensión auditiva y la fluidez al hablar, convirtiéndola en una de las metodologías más efectivas para la preparación del IELTS Speaking y la comunicación en inglés en el mundo real.
