I fell in love with Kbeauty and kdramas in 2020 and still deeply in love! 😊 So much that I'm planning a trip to south Korea when I turn 60 in 2 years. Do you recommend the book in your video to learn the language? Great video, and first time watching you. Will subscribe!

I actually learned on KZitem mostly. There are plenty of channels that first teach you Hangul (the korean alphabet) then easy words and sentences. That book was given to me by my husband from a second hand book store and mostly he gave it to me so I could practice reading to pick up my speed. I also recommend you set yourself a reminder at say 10AM (whatever works for you) and for the next hour you can work on learning Korean EVERY SINGLE DAY. So excited about your trip!!!! Good luck learning... at our age, learning a new language is one of the best ways to exercise your brain. woohoo!!

I feel like you’re my sister or something with your fascination with all things Korean as I am since getting into Kdramas during Covid. Would love to discuss some of those titles with you.

Oh my goodness!!!! Annyeonghaseyo, Chingu!!!! A soul sister for sure. LOL. How cool that you have been learning more about K beauty and actually working with it. Love that for you!!!! I know who to ask stuff to now. LOL. Sorry, you come up as @grnddesign, so I don't know your name... regardless Crash Landing on You (good, but could have had a better ending I think - I am a traditional romantic), The Glory (I haven't seen yet). Under the Queen Umbrella (my all time favorite). Right now I am watching The Atypical Family... loving it. My favorite type of korean drama has these elements: orphaned young woman who for some reason can afford to live in Seoul, there has to be an umbrella scene, a bridge scene, dating a chaebol. LOL... Let me know if I went on too much. LMAO!!!

Hi Nancy, that is a great question. I am not sure where in the world the raw products are coming from… but mostly they use unique botanicals like the centelha asiática, ginseng, and própolis for centuries. While these ingredients have come to be used in our western products only in recent years.

Please check the sunscreen you've linked. The bottle seems to be from the brand 'Skin 1004' but the brand name isn't mentioned and the red ribbons across the product conceal the printed info on the bottle. The brand name in the listing doesn't match the legit product. Why do they use ribbons on the tubes? Also, no reviews?? I'm concerned you're using a knock off product and not getting good sun protection.✌️💙💚💜

Ok, so I found the skin1004 store on Amazon, so this link should be the correct one: amzn.to/4g2tPeu And you are right, my tube says Soug on the bottom... I didn't see ribbons anywhere, on the old link. I hope that going to the skin1004 directly on Amazon will be the safest bet. Not an excuse, but it takes a lot of work to get these links and products lined up before posting the video and I often make mistakes. But I hope this will help. The one from Soug looked really nice... from packaging to formula. I will have to order the one directly from skin1004 to see if there is a difference in the quality and performance of the product. Do you personally have any experience with a specific brand of korean sunscreen that you can share? I would really appreciate it.
