There has been like one case last month in the news
97
where like a Chinese influencer came to the same place you're visiting now.
98
It's called Hanfu.
99
Isn't that disrespectful?
100
Oh, you think it would be disrespectful?
101
Yeah, look at what she has.

That's disrespectful, right?
103
Yeah, yeah, yeah, exactly.

Hmm?
105
She's gonna be worried at it.
106
Han-ful, yeah.
107
Yeah, that's disrespectful.
108
And people were coming up and taking pictures and probably thinking, Oh, that's the Korean traditional.
109
Oh, like the tourists.
110
Oh.

That's their intention, actually.

149
There was just like a case last month.
150
Somebody was coming here, a Chinese influencer wearing this clothes.
151
Like for example, if somebody in Japan would wear, let's say, a Chinese clothes in a temple, how would you feel?
152
And say it's kimono.

165
I'm from the United States, from Florida.
166
My name is Ariana.
167
I'm from the United States, from Arkansas.
168
I'm Anne.
169

172
Just for traveling.
173

174
I'm also working.
175
Oh, wait, wait.
176
You're from the United States, you're from France.
177
How did this work out?
178
We just met like 10 minutes ago.
179
And you just became friends?
180
Yeah.
181
So you're traveling alone?
182
Yes.
183
How long have you been staying in Korea?
184
Just seven days.
185
Five months.
186
A little over three years.
187
You don't know, right?
188
Super famous!
189
It's like a famous song.
190
Like, all over.
191
So anyway, what do you really like about Korea?
192
I love the nature in Korea.
193
You get out of Seoul, there's a lot of Korea that's untouched.
194
There's farmland, there's mountains, there's waterfalls.
195
There's just a lot of pretty things out there.
196
I recently went to Annmyeong-do, and over there was really nice like Taehan, Anmundo area.
197
I really liked it.
198
I don't know, I just really like traveling around Korea.
199
I love that you can just get on the train and like get lost somewhere.
200
Okay, how about you guys?
201
So far I just love that Korea's a van.
202
Just comparing it to the United States to here, it's like everything is cleaner, whether it's like skincare, whether it's the food, just walking more, everyone's just kind of in shape.
203
I just love the environment, if I'm being honest.
204
Wait a second, skincare in the States is dirty?
205
It's not dirty.
206
She needs like cleaner ingredients or like, you know, a cleaner like a...
207
Like a sunscreen.
208
Yeah, natural.
209
Because the sunscreen here is what?
210
Plus, plus, plus, plus?
211
Yes!
212
SPF 50 plus, plus, plus, plus, plus.
213
In the States, it's not even really approved yet.
214
So it's like kind of behind.
215
Oh, OK, OK, OK.
216
The food and skin care. Which food?
217
Chicken.
218
Was there something you didn't like? Be honest.
219
I like Korea so far.
220
I think when I have something and I want to, oh, there's no trash cans.
221
You've got to kind of hold on to it.
222
I can see that.
223
In my city, we don't menu.
224
I'm going to be honest.
225
I don't have anything bad to say.
226
I actually love Korea.
227
Looking at your smile, you're like...
228
I'm just existing.
229
You're like, Yeah, I love it.
230
He's really Korean.
231
But actually, it's Japanese.
232
You know that, right?
233
Yeah, and I don't know why they told me that.
234
That's crazy.
235
Oh, okay, but you never had an experience where, for example, overcharging or something like that?
236
Oh, no. I think sometimes they ask for a tip, and I'm like, we're in Korea.
237
There's no tip.
238
Looking at this, from which country do you think this closest might be from?
239
Japan Is that Japan?
240
I think Japan I don't know that it's Korea, I also don't think it's Japan It's a little bit slouchy, like kimonos These are usually like wrap, you know?
241
It could be a stout I don't know, this building looks kinda like these buildings,
242
it could be Korean So the background is Korean Okay But the closest are not It's for Japan?
243
China China, okay It's not appropriate Yeah, I think you should respect everyone's culture.
244
Oh, that was like a scandal, huh?
245
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
246
Okay, I understand.
247
It's like racism.
248
Yes, yes.
249
It's like me going to the Eiffel Tower with a German traditional clothes and having some beer and a sausage.
250
It wouldn't be so cool, right?
251
No, it's not cool.
252
Because for some people, it might be very, very distracting and also, like, they're confused.
253
Yeah.
254
What are you wearing?
255
Do you know how you call it?
256
Hanbok.
257
Hanbok.
258
Good.
259
Thank you so much.
260
Well, you guys are so cool.
261
Well, thank you for being on us.
262
Thank you.
263
You guys have a good day!
264
Yeah, thank you.
265
Thank you for the time.
266
Excuse me.
267
Excuse me.
268
Would it be okay for you to do like a small interview?
269
Yeah.
270
Hi, my name is Angel.
271
I'm actually from Ireland, but I'm just visiting from Thailand actually.
272
So how did that end up?
273
I haven't come back to Thailand in 10 years, so my parents were like, you need to come back.
274
And they were like, oh, we may as well just go to Korea.
275
So here we are.
276
Today's our last day actually.
277
Oh really?
278
So we decided to do this instead.
279
Okay.
280
As our last day kind of thing.
281
Like before coming to Korea, it seemed like you didn't have a real good choice.
282
No, I loved it though.
283
Okay.
284
What was like your expectation before coming here?
285
I watched a lot of K-drama and K-pop anyway.
286
How long have you stayed then in Korea?
287
Been about three days.
288
Yeah, we're leaving tomorrow unfortunately.
289
Apart from that, I mean, you haven't stayed there long.
290
Was there anything you didn't like so much?
291
No, actually everyone's been pretty nice and welcoming, you know, so I actually have nothing bad to say at all.
292
Not I could think of anyways.
293
Not at all?
294
No, no, no. Everyone's been lovely.
295
Everything's been great.
296
It's cheap enough as well.
297
Not charging too much?
298
No!
299
Well, if they charged me too much, I don't think I would have known, so...
300
Okay.
301
Didn't mind any price I was paying so far.
302
Wait, one last thing.
303
I mean, you are now wearing what clothes?
304
The handbook.
305
Oh!
306
I read it on the wagon.
307
If I show you a picture of this clothes, what do you think about?
308
I think it's a bit inappropriate as in...
309
It's kind of more like a sacred place if I'm aware of this palace.
310
Oh, so you know where it is from?
311
I'm not sure.
312
I've never seen this.
313
You've never seen it?
314
No. But I'm just looking at it.
315
I'm assuming she's in the palace.
316
Yeah?
317
This palace is right where you are at, right?
318
Oh, right!
319
Yeah.
320
Okay, I see, yeah.
321
Do you think this is traditional clothing?
322
No, I don't think so.
323
I think it's always been more like, kind of conservative.
324
I feel like I don't think it ever been where you can show your skin.
325
I don't think that's allowed.
326
Even like in Thai culture, it's the same thing.
327
Like, I wouldn't like that in my culture either.
328
So I don't think it's really appropriate.
329
Do you think it's Korean clothing?
330
It doesn't look like Korean from the way I'm seeing it.
331
And you have good eyes.
332
To let you know it's called handpoo.
333
Okay.
334
Chinese traditional clothes.
335
Oh, right.
336
Actually, this lady is a famous influencer from China.
337
She came here wearing that clothes.
338
Oh.
339
This place.
340
Is that recent as well?
341
Yes, yes, yes.
342
Oh, are you trying to spread awareness?
343
Yeah, because a lot of people might look at this and think like it's Korean traditional clothes.
344
I thought it was common knowledge not to wear something else.
345
Okay, keep things straight.
346
In German you say, What?
347
No, we must sign?
348
Which means something if you have to follow the rule.
349
Yeah, if you go to a country, you respect that country's rules and everything, regulations.
350
If you don't like it, then maybe you shouldn't visit it.
351
Yeah, right, right, right.
352
You know, maybe I would try, maybe educate them a little bit.
353
How would you educate them?
354
You know, we Germans, if we educate something, oh, it doesn't go well.
355
Yeah, you know, we've done a lot of shit in the past.
356
All right.
357
Okay, that's it.
358
Yeah, thank you so much.
359
Enjoy your stay in Korea.
360
Thank you so much.
361
Thank you so much.
362
Bye bye.
363
Ladies, would it be okay for you to do a small interview?
364
My English.
365
My English is also not good.
366
No, no better.
367
Oh, it's fine, it's fine.
368
Oh, thank you.
369
No?
370
Hey guys, excuse me.
371
I'm from Germany, you guys from?
372
Germany.
373
Deutschland?
374
Yeah, please introduce yourself.
375
I'm Josie.
376
I'm Flo.
377
Both from Germany.
378
How long have you been to Korea?
379
I think now it's one and a half weeks.
380
Traveling?
381
Yeah, for taking a break for...
382
Until end of September.
383
Staying here in Korea?
384
Yeah, we wanted to visit.
385
Our Korean friend invited us here.
386
Can you speak some Korean?
387
A bit.
388
I tried to study it for one year in Germany.
389
Let's do it.
390
Hello.
391
I'm Josefine.
392
I'm a teacher.
393
Anything you really really like about Korea and anything you didn't like so much?
394
We liked the hiking trails.
395
Sodaksan.
396
All the public transport, public facilities.
397
That's better than Deutsche Bahn.
398
Definitely.
399
You don't know Deutsche Bahn, right?
400
German train is poop.
401
Shit.
402
Always comes late.
403
Very angry. So angry.
404
Shouldn't make Germans angry.
405
Anything you didn't like so much?
406
Can be honest.
407
Nothing happened.
408
The only thing that might be missing is garbage bins.
409
Like, where to dispose stuff, yes.
410
For me, I would have said the same.
411
Do you know how you cover?
412
Hanbok. Is from?
413
Korea.
414
You probably also know.
415
Yeah.
416
Can you distinguish the traditional closings from different countries?
417
I guess so, yes.
418
It doesn't look Korean.
419
No, it's not Korean.
420
Why do you think it doesn't look like Korean?
421
Because of the neckline.
422
I've seen this in more like a Japanese direction, then the hair wouldn't fit, I guess.
423
It's a Chinese, but you probably can see from the background where it is.
424
It's here.
425
Right.
426
Someone that doesn't have any cultural knowledge about what is Korean, Chinese or Japanese clothing, could it be distracting?
427
Yeah, it's the same as when in Germany people wear lederhosen outside of München.
428
I am from München, why?
429
Then it's allowed if you're in Munich.
430
It's not allowed if I go to Hamburg?
431
Yeah, you would be weird.
432
I told you, man, if I wear the clothes, go to Hamburg, I'm like, even in Germany.
433
But this is like a different spectrum
434
because you have other people from different countries coming here and some people can even think, oh, then Hamburg is also from China.
435
Do you think it could go that far?
436
I don't think so.
437
For me it's okay.
438
What do you mean it's okay?
439
Because I don't know the differences.
440
I don't know the difference.
441
But like from a cultural perspective, do you think it would be appropriate, inappropriate?
442
Please don't.
443
Okay, thank you.
444
Hello.
445
Hello.
446
Hey guys, I'm sorry, it's a little bit random.
447
You guys are French, right?
448
Yeah.
449
First of all, introduce yourself.
450
Hi, I'm Lisa.
451
I'm from Paris and I've been here in Seoul for three days now.
452
How was in Paris the last week?
453
Last week I was in Spain.
454
Why didn't you go to Germany?
455
Deutsche Bahn.
456
Yeah, I told you, German kitchen is shit.
457
Sure.
458
Oh, sorry.
459
My name is Candice and I'm from Toulouse in France.
460
And I've been living here for like three months now.
461
You study in Korea or not?
462
Not really.
463
I'm just like working here and working in a French restaurant.
464
And you just came here for visiting?
465
Yeah, we've met each other in Toulouse.
466
I knew she was here and I was like, oh, what are you doing the first week of September?
467
She was like, I'm free.
468
Okay, I'm coming.
469
Did you have any image of Korea in your head before coming here?
470
It was a lot about food.
471
Seems like a nice country to visit.
472
And we don't really hear about it.
473
We hear a bit more about your neighbors, I guess.
474
And it was like, that's my opportunity.
475
She's here.
476
Of course now, I've been here for three days.
477
How's your impression?
478
I really like...
479
So I feel it's a city that kind of never sleeps.
480
They don't sleep.
481
They work.
482
They work and they drink from what I saw.
483
But it's nice and there's always something to see or to do.
484
And I also really enjoy the rivers and like the branches of the river as well.
485
That's what I really liked.
486
No, I'm just here because I like the country.
487
You like the country?
488
Yeah, and I like the city.
489
But not because of K-pop anymore.
490
I just love the vibe here.
491
And the people are nice.
492
Not Korean.
493
I mean, Korean people are nice but not very open-minded.
494
Why?
495
If you go to Hong Kong, they have the open-minded or opera.
496
Yeah, but they're not like...
497
I won't say anything.
498
Why?
499
You can, feel free.
500
They're not the typical.
501
Yeah, they open-minded about something specific.
502
Not about like relationship, you know, what I'm saying.
503
Maybe, maybe not.
504
I mean, they're not the same, all the same, I guess.
505
Was there also something else you didn't like that much? Did you?
506
Oh, no, no, no, no. I think Korea is cool.
507
Last question for you guys.
508
So you see a lot of people wearing clothes here.
509
Looks like traditional clothes.
510
Do you know the name of the clothing?
511
Hanbok, is that it?
512
Oh, that's good.
513
Now you know.
514
Now you know.
515
I know!
516
We talked about it right before.
517
I'm going to show you a picture.
518
Look at the background.
519
Where do you think it is?
520
Here.
521
Right there maybe, I don't know.
522
So the lady is wearing some clothing.
523
Where do you think it's from?
524
You would distinguish it if you could see it, someone wearing it.
525
No, yeah.
526
It doesn't have the same color.
527
Do you think it could confuse people looking at it and like, Oh, that's traditional clothing here in Korea.
528
I think maybe some people here.
529
So that's your question.
530
Is it appropriate to wear someone else's culture clothing in another country?
531
Especially in a place like this.
532
I thought of me wearing German uniform.
533
That's something else, but yeah,
534
no. I get your points and I understand when you go in.
535
I think it's disrespectful if you mean it in a disrespectful way.
536
Yes, it's disrespectful.
537
Now there are some people of course from China wearing the clothes coming here, like inflicting that thought, hey look at that clothing, looks good right?
538
We made Hanbok!
539
That is weird, yeah.
540
That's weird, right?
541
That's weird.
542
Yeah, this one is weird.
543
Yeah.
544
What happened?
545
What should we do with them?
546
I mean, we can't send them somewhere.
547
Okay, slave.
548
I think it's weird if you put it that way.
549
Thank you.
550
Thank you.
551
Thank you so much.
552
Thank you for your time.
553
Good luck.
554
We're all Chinese.
555
Are you Chinese traditional?
556
Yeah, I see.
557
Why do you wear this?
558
It's not clear.
559
It's really funny.
560
If you come to the army, you're going to follow the law.
561
There are people who are also very good at the same time.
562
But when people come to Korea, they come to Korea.
563
It's a lot of people who come to Korea.
564
They come to Korea.
565
They come to the country and have a lot of people who come to Korea.
566
Why?
567
There's no one!
568
Why?
569
What's your opinion?
570
There's a lot of people.
571
It's a song.
572
It's a movie.
573
It's a movie.
574
I'll see it in Italian.
575
It's a Korean guy.
576
I wanted to make a Korean guy.
577
I wanted to make a kimchi.
578
But then I wanted to make a kimchi look like this.
579
Oh, this is our thing.
580
I'll take a mask.
581
Excuse me guys, you come from Germany?
582
Yeah.
583
What's your name?
584
A gem.
585
What brought you here?
586
Just for holidays.
587
When did you arrive?
588
Yesterday.
589
You will also visit other cities like Yonju and Busan.
590
So we will just hop on different cities, not stay too long here in Seoul.
591
What country do you think it's from?
592
Not quite sure, I can't tell.
593
You can't tell?
594
No. Could be Korean?
595
Could be, but I'm not quite sure.
596
Because that's the problem, the Chinese influence.
597
Wearing a Chinese traditional clothes in that palace. But why?
598
I think it's not right to wear clothes which are not from the country.
599
That's true.
600
I think that's not how it should be.
601
Okay, thank you very much.
602
Excuse me.
603
If you're from Germany, where are you from?
604
I'm from Germany.

617
What brought you to Korea exactly?
618
Actually the food brought me here.
619
I decided on Korea because of the food.
620
And then I also fell in love with the culture and the arts.
621
One thing you would say, okay, if I go back to Germany, I couldn't live without that.
622
Nurebang.
623
You don't have Nurebang in Germany?
624
No, we do it at home.
625
Oh really?
626
It's just YouTube karaoke.
627

629
Always watching YouTube and shouting out loud.
630

Or your style.
644
Yeah.
645
Is it from maybe a part of China?
646

652
And then you have the people coming here and like, oh so pretty.
653

654
Also it looks a little bit sexual with the cleavage.
655
Like it's very different from the Hamburg that is like high up so this looks...
656
Problematic?
657

Exploring Cultural Context in Real-Life Dialogue
The video captures a casual, on-the-street conversation in a bustling location, where the speaker grapples with questions about cultural clothing and interacts with others. This scenario mirrors real-world English use—filled with hesitation, curiosity, and quick exchanges—making it perfect for english speaking practice. By analyzing such dialogues, you learn to navigate natural speech patterns, including pauses, slang, and unplanned thoughts, which are key to sounding fluent.
Useful Chunks & Collocations to Master
- "I feel like I'm wearing...": A common way to express a comparison or personal perception, great for sharing opinions.
- "What's the sign?": A casual phrase to ask about meaning or context, useful in confusing situations.
- "Have a nice day": A polite, universal closing that works in almost any interaction.
- "I'm so confused": A simple, relatable way to admit uncertainty, helping you connect with others.
- "How do you think?": A direct way to invite feedback, perfect for starting conversations.
These chunks are like building blocks—memorize them, and you’ll find it easier to string together sentences in real time.
Your Shadowing Challenge: Mimic the Moment
Ready to practice? Try the shadowing technique with this video. Here’s how: Play a 5-second clip, pause, and repeat it immediately, matching the speaker’s tone, speed, and even pauses. Focus on phrases like "I don't know if I'm a girl or not"—notice how the speaker stumbles slightly, and mimic that natural rhythm. This helps train your brain to process and reproduce English quickly, a skill shadow speech excels at. For more practice, find a shadowing site with similar real-life videos—learn english with videos that feature unscripted conversations, and you’ll soon feel more confident in your speaking.
Remember, the goal isn’t perfection—it’s to sound natural. So hit play, and start shadowing today!
Grammar in this video
The structures the speaker uses most, with the exact words from the video:
| Structure | In the video |
|---|---|
| Conditional sentences if + clause, will/would + verb — a condition and its result | if somebody in Japan would wear |
| Present perfect have/has + past participle — a past action that still matters now | I've been · I've seen · I've never seen |
| Relative clauses who / which + clause — extra information about a person or thing | people who are · man who has · people who come |
| Advice with “should” should + verb — saying what is a good idea | Should be · should respect · shouldn't visit |
What is the Shadowing Technique?
Shadowing is a science-backed language learning technique originally developed for professional interpreter training and popularized by polyglot Dr. Alexander Arguelles. The method is simple but powerful: you listen to native English audio and immediately repeat it out loud — like a shadow following the speaker with just a 1–2 second delay. Unlike passive listening or grammar drills, shadowing forces your brain and mouth muscles to simultaneously process and reproduce real speech patterns. Research shows it significantly improves pronunciation accuracy, intonation, rhythm, connected speech, listening comprehension, and speaking fluency — making it one of the most effective methods for IELTS Speaking preparation and real-world English communication.
