Korean Monsoon Season of TERROR!

[eacocerunnjump23]

Gotta love the rainy season

[colorguard1218]

I'm planning to study abroad in Korea for a whole year, so now I know to bring my rain boots and matching golf umbrella that's designed to not flip inside out, rather than bringing a smaller umbrella and no boots

[MidnightRaven66]

Eh hurricanes are worse.

[danycashking]

hahaha rain season is worse here, ever seen a kid surfing on the street? XD

[Prijanga]

NOOOOOOOOO. July til mid august?!?! Thats when I have my SUMMER break and I wanted to go to Korea ODFLGDFLLFdgkldjfg T___T

[SilentFaces]

Does anyone know the song?

[rachelbrain]

@SilentFaces Not sure what the song it is, but it's from Katamari Damacy

[ikeafish]

even though it was extremely windy and raining cats and dogs, why were people wearing short sleeves and a skirt or shorts? was the weather not that bad or people just have a high tolerance? because here in america, it gets pretty cold when it rains and have winds like that.

[BlueDubuJJang9]

Awww This is exactly what happens here! Lmao

And we do have those things art 2:49. in fact, At the college we have to use them :)

[Auroranwarlock197]

You call this TERROR? You guys definitely haven't seen Indonesia yet.

[hoochu864]

1:33 I was like, CRASH! But apparently the bike dude didn't crash into the car. :disappointment face: lol

[CP9Luffy]

2:23 "oh fuck" lol

[Manabinbe]

i was craving a brownie but then i saw the soondae and ddukbokki and uhmook and twikim ; n ;

[victorialouvous]

Sometimes women suffer for fashion ;)

[catreenalovexlr8b2st]

Rainy seasons back in the Philippines are like this or worse... I kinda miss it now that I live in MN which only have like tons of snow. XD

[annapeipe]

I LOVE MONSOONS ! another reason to visit Korea.

[kupokuporay]

That's pretty cool and I guess I'd be used to it. I love in Melbourne Australia and the weather is UNPREDICTABLE here fine one minute then bucketing a few minutes later. Lucky I can judge the weather better than the weather man :). Katamari!!!

[lexiholly]

lol looks just like the weather we're having right now all over new zealand :P

[hermionepotter2350]

Don't they have a drainage system, or is the water level just ridiculously high.

[alphajohnx]

OMFG SOOOOO B-E-A-UTIFUL!!!!!!!!!!

[Isiena]

omg... that umbrella bag contraption is amazing

[0099ddaavviidd]

I live in Scotland so this is pretty normal :|

[rtluvsmusic]

If I went to Korea this would just be another normal day, I live in Oregon and it rains almost everyday!

[kpopshawol]

@rtluvsmusic whoo! I grew up in Oregon. :] Where I live now, I'm like the only one of my friends who isn't bothered by/enjoys being out in the rain. XD

[morgano93]

what song is this?

[BeatlesFanNow4ever]

@morgano93 Katamari Damacy - Lonely Star

[minamaplefan]

I LOVED korean monsoons >ㅂ< it was so fun standing in a puddle with your rainboots on hehe. When I was in First grade, I came to school in my rain coat and boots, and the whole place was just dirt and water haha

[RANDOMSP123]

is this song...japanese?

[shadowhiding172]

lol lastime i went to korea it was raining like crazy!!!! and from watching this vid now i kno tht jul to aug is rain season

[xXxIgoBOOMxXx]

I love crazy rain! Another reason why I should visit Korea~

[kryhappy96]

Beautiful rainnnnnn<3

C'est tellement belle ! J'adore la pluie....et la Corée du Sud : )

[KairiKH21]

[xoDBSKox]

I friggin love rain. This actually makes me wanna move to Korea even more haha

[manjubun86]

lol: considered yourself warned. i think the longer they stay in korea the worse their english will get

[AZaikoku]

omg katamari music :D

[MizMimiCullen]

Simon's umbrella looks epically large xD

[mellorocksta]

waaaah i really wanna go to korea now...(yes, i luv that weather.....i kno i'm weird :P)

[GahoJheebum]

Now I know : Inside out umbrella = International.... Casn't believe nobody ever found something to fix this up !!!

[obsessedfobfan92]

for those of you who are wondering, the song is called Lonely Rolling Star, and it's from the game Katamari Damacy :)

[tIgGeRnPoOh25]

Asia can be so genius sometimes

[beachballsify2]

just wondering, is it like this everyday during monsoon season? and would better drainage systems help? or is there sufficient drainage but its just really really crazy rain?

[xvxBendyWendyxvx]

I'm currently waiting for the green light to teach in seoul. Should I bring my own wellies?

[nicksponge]

simon, what was the thought process involved when you decided to wear sandals outside? in the pouring rain? :P

[nataliiinn]

whoa! at least it isn't cold :D wen we hve crazy rainy season...its windy, wet and cold! D:

[kaerys55]

haha Martina Monroe! awe Simon looks so sad and cute walking in the small lakes and being stuck on his little island!

[AMANDAtheAWESOMEone]

My South Korean internet friend told me he tries to stay inside anytime it rains. haha.

He even said that he'll sometimes cancel or change appointment dates to avoid being in the rain.

[AMANDAtheAWESOMEone]

Haha. That's how it has looked here lately. With so much rain.

I live in southern Ohio (USA).

[Th1rt3enXGNa]

KATAMARI~

[Kazuhax]

that's one huge umbrella u've got there o_o

[hellotomson]

@SuJuFan110022 naver news reported that monsoon will start on 10th of july 2011 hahahaha play with that puddle like them

[hellotomson]

ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ 표현력에 감탄했다 엄브렐라 콘돔이래 ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋi was cracked up by your way of expresssing a cover sheet for umbrella AHAHAHAHAHAAHAHA

[D18brosInc]

Oh~ Fun! My first trip to Korea will be during the peak of rainy season <3

[kupokuporay]

Hey its the song from Katamari

[alcomaniacpunk]

I would (now) totally avoid going there from july~august.. (if I'm not staying there one day)

[serapofa]

is monsoon in Korea involves "Crazy foreigner"? =="

[bree9010]

what's the name of this song?

[kahcg2]

@bree9010 Lonely Rolling Star from the Katamari Damacy video game soundtrack

[bree9010]

@kahcg2 thx you!!! :)

[scarletpark81]

@kahcg2 I like this chiptune song too!

[MyMeechan]

the umbrella condom looks not environmental friendly. here, we dont carry wet umbrella also, we just leave our wet umbrellas near the door once we got into the store, then take them back to go home

[xxmilkixx]

I WOULD TOTALLY JUST GO OUT WITH A RAIN COAT AND BOOTS. :D i love the rain :D even after it gave me a cold and a fever.... BUT I STILL LOVE IT!!! :D

[ImperfectApplePie]

why girls!? WHY!? they're ruining those beautiful shoes in the rain! :DDDD

[marajaw422]

ill be in Korea 1st week of Aug. oh noooooo!

[kok1able]

aww ...the nostalgia...u guys r so lucky..cherish it while it's there.

[studystrike]

katamari damacy. I love this song

[TheJeleb]

Reminds me of England. :P

Rain rain and more rain, though for the past few years, it's been getting really sunny (and snowwy in winter) so.. :)

[beautifulyoo]

i love rainy season in korea

everytime i visit there it is raining, so when it rains at my house, i get nostalgic...

[blueskymaiden]

this looks like Vancouver weather

[elfshawolgirl]

u guys went to emart!!!!??? i love e mart

[donny555d]

why don't you guys get the two layer umbrellas that dont blow over? they are amazing awesome and convenient

[eatmorefood08]

WHERE THE HELL DID I HERE THIS SONG IM GOING NUTS TRYING TO FIGURE IT OUT

[KenshinForever]

@eatmorefood08 It's from Katamari Damacy :D

I LOVE that game!!!!

[Gell1welt69]

whats the name of the song?

[nachtnite]

Monsoon season is about 2weeks.

[xxxAngelikaxxx]

OMG, if I go to Korea next year, I have to quit my job before summer, i refuse to have this bad weather in my favorite season of the whole year, I will hang myself if it rains all the time in summer, i have to leave Korea for that time, I HAVE TO!!!

[Jungied]

As a kid growing up I enjoyed monsoon so much due to mixture of warm air and tons of water. :)

Never gotten sick from it playing outside or maybe I'm the lucky one.

[plbuster]

The video doesn't do the Monsoon justice.

[sallyoyo]

should have brought spudgy for a swim

[alen132465]

song?

[62Elvis]

my first & only monsoon experience was in s. korea in the summer of '81 - lots of rain!

[danielismiracle]

you never have monsoon rain in Canada. in Van it rains throughout the year! But it's never like this!

[jmark00meipia1]

its just a puddle!!

[simon1993ist]

Crazy rain

[srainy]

aah i remember when i lived in malaysia, for a couple of months at the end of the year it just rained nonstop all day long for several days and maybe stop for about half a day to one day and it just continue again with the same pattern -___-;;; once i entered a mall completely wet as if i walked without an umbrella. embarrassing T____T

[corinaluver]

lol i saw the "umbrella condom" at a restaurant that i recently ate at here in Cali!!

[superleo30317]

I can't believe I have to face this again. I studied in Costa Rica 2 years ago and even though I enjoyed my time there, I could've done without the week of "no sun but all rain" the second week I was studying there LOL You get used to it, though. Almost everybody wears a poncho or walks around with an umbrella at certain times of the day.

[MsDohnut]

wait rainy from july to mid august when do they have summer in Korea then?

[nachtnite]

@MsDohnut

June ~ August are summer in Korea.

[hermionewheezey]

lmfao umbrella condom

[Milkisful]

lmfao yeah the girls in korea wear heels 24/7 any season

crazy loool

[themennonite]

as I watch this video all I can really think about is how much I'd like to roll everything up into a katamari

[crazyhypergurl]

Considering the way people are dressed monsoon season is still fairly warm?

That's the first time I've seen the umbrella condom in action even though I knew they existed. I didn't know they had them in the stores like that though. I thought people had to carry them with them lol.

[babun0ir]

@crazyhypergurl

haha nope! and theyve got 2 sizes, one for the big umbrella Simon was carrying and one for smaller ones, like the one Martina was using :)

[imxpnsv]

HAHA Umbrella Condom!!

[khyoon14]

i CLUB seals.. hahha

[TheStardustinthesky]

They have those umbrella holders in Japan too! It rained so much when we were there. LOL

[koohyuk]

You know why so much motorcycle on rainday? Allmost all people dont like to go out on rainday so everybody wants to stay indoor. Dont want go out to eat meal cuz motorcycle mans can delivery food at your door. That's why motorcycle man especially being full of road in rainyday

[yukaro23]

Martina, your boots & umbrella are adorable!

Simon, you ♣ Seals? Hahahaha, your shirts make me smile.

:)

[mcshundess]

Hello there,

I own a shop in Paris. Where is it possible to purchase that "umbrella condom dispenser" ? Thanks for your time.

[tokee1234567]

@mcshundess if you ask Korean department store companies, they might tell you what company they bought the dispensers from. it's everywhere in big Korean stores (Lotte, Emart, Homeplus, contact any one of these places and they might help you)

[Jun9095]

wow!! the umbrella bag is WINNING IDEA!! ^^

[mbrown187]

Why run? You have rain boots on. Heeelloooo.

[blahk04]

Umbrella condom = Japanese.

[xXKittyDollXx]

I love rain & puddles.

I would have been in heaven over there ):

[JrockIsTehSmex]

i love how u used the katamari song in here XD

[armsock]

australia has these too 

[Sasilmin]

what is this japanese music? It sounds cute.

[noteimporta12]

Lovely video! Very funny...

[CouchAthlet1988]

"The rainy season: July to mid August" :O

I will be in Bucheon from July 3rd to August 29th :( :( Will I get wet all the days?!

This can't be true :D

[doramagurl91]

In Monsoon weather, how cold is the weather? Is it hot or cold because I see that people in there are wearing skirts and shorts?

[dlstnry]

@doramagurl91 It's in during the summer. So it's hot. But in rainy days. The outdoor is cold. Cause it's windy and rainy. But if you indoor you feel very unpleasant cause it's very damp.

(I'm not good at English. So if my grammer is wrong I'm sorry.

[idonthaveacoolcar]

Flooding must be a real bitch round that time

[bmelanie]

you guys are so cute. keep it up with the awesome videos, I'm very much appreciating them. (also Spudgy is adorabibs)

[psychomidnight]

yay! i'll feel right at home then, haha. i'm from florida, so we constanly get pounded with tropical storms and hurricanes. that sort of weather is no new thing for me XD

[Kyoungeun]

AHH eff it @>@

im going back to Korea in July to August =.=-

last time i went back it was horrible - i was hoping it would be better T^T daaang

[OstineKim]

Umbrella condom haha

[shiragi992]

Korean Monsoon for some strange reason was very romantic and enjoyable, when I grew up. I had lots of fun just like how you guys did.

[Kyoungeun]

LOLOLOL UMBRELLA CONDOMS?! LMAOO

[1lasthope1we]

[rjlolo224]

you guys are so funny! i love youre vidios! how did you become interesting in teaching in korea? and how can i look into it?

[wronglycensored]

At the begging (0:25), It looks like a budongsan sign, but does it say "Harvard" on it? 0_o

Is there a Harvard in Korea? A city/town/name? Or am I misinterpreting it as a real-estate agency name?

[behevolent45]

Whoaa.

[pakjc16]

you guys looks happy

[LoveJay2pm]

작은 것에도 감동할줄 아는 귀여운 사람들이다.

[blingblingshineshine]

@LoveJay2pm 헤이도 우리 나라는 몬순 계절을 가지고 있으며, 그것은 아주 일상적인 일이지만, 그것은 아직 너무 재미 있어요 그리고 이것은 한국에있는 내 꿈의 국가를 ! :)

[SuckXmyXchickeN]

hes wearing an "I club seals" shirt D: how could you! poor seals :[

[Santokiii]

Lol i remember being in Korea during the rainy season. everytime we left our apartment complex, our umbrellas would flip inside out. we went through 5 umbrellas before we decided just to stay inside xP

oh and the music sounds Korean, but is really Japanese

[tewkewl]

that first high healed girl has hot legs.  yummmyyyy slurp.

[XiAhLuV3r]

this reminds me of when i ordered chicken and the guy glared at me xD

[kageninja3]

so im gonna be the annoying guy that asks what song is in the video. it reminds me of gunbound 'cuz it's so upbeat. help me out?

[cookiemonxchu]

i enjoyed the season lol i could see new cheong gye cheon in front of my house

[4ourTimber]

lol umbrella condoms.... there r condoms for umbrella everywhere in Hong Kong where i live....

[Arrowhead38228]

i lived in hongkong for 1 year and i didn't see any. and that was like just a year ago. funny.

[4ourTimber]

there are everywhere in malls....

[Arrowdodger]

I love the music. And Martina, you look very cute in your outfit.

[keymon17]

[XxdementedDOLLXx]

They would wear heels in the rain.lol

[trishanovaotalaboc]

can anybody tell me the title of the background music used in this video??? i've been looking all over for it. please. :)

[Hadra568]

it's called "Lonely Rolling Star" and it's from the game Katamari Damacy.

[TheCussBank]

Rofl @ the Katamari Damacy music. xD

Monsoon season is apparently great if you feel like going for a nice Kayak through your town. xD Jokes.

[whasupp]

ahahaha that was funny lol i loved it. thank you for sharing

[blackpearlamvb]

That's not as bad in Philippines!!! Lol but it seems fun!

[ivorykitten]

wow, the people on scooters looked like they were driving all over the road & side-walks! Talk about dangerous. lol

[ahjinomoto]

chaotic-epicity!

[suadream]

rainy day make me cozy..

i like summer

and rainy day

[cynth84]

Yeah that umbrella cover thing is here in Florida and lord knows we get enough rain during the summer that we need those. lol Becareful out there guys!

[crazyjenny93]

omg, summer in korea is pretty horrible.. like winter in canada.. rainy, humid, hot.. btw cute boots haha

[nancy4366]

I've seen more rain in Jackson Mississippi, U.S.A.

[kat578]

My sister teaches in Seoul, South Korea and she's from Canada too!! You have inspired her to try and make her own videos! :D

[ErasmusIII]

Korea is most gangsta killah pop cap in yo ass nation

[wellbingOK]

No, korea is very safe,

America is not safe, killl each other by gun.

[eevee91]

lol actually those umbrella bags are in the US too. ^_^ they're in each store here in Florida.

Are they not in Canada?

[ErasmusIII]

I live in NY, LA, SF, Portland, Atlanta, and DC. Never ever seen umbrella bags in stores.

[rawrmuahgrr]

Theres some where I work here in Texas. But ther aren't as cool as the ones in korean. The ones at my job say "keep our floors dry" then you have to rip out the baggy and then out the umbrella in :(

[Commandos12]

no bag here in British Columbia :3

[4yumikid]

Interesting umbrella bag things, very considerate idea!! :3

[aiG0oChamNa]

no weather will stop the koreans from wearing those heels. thats how they roll. foo.

[suadream]

just funny and good vid..

i like this vid..

tokee1234567

you tends to exaggerate

[Jehee23]

I like martinas umbrella,its cute! haha crazy weather everywhere! *its like 70 degrees in july where i live..lol

[orestria]

the katamari damacy music made my day.

The worst part is when you see used umbrella condoms strewn outside a store

[rocklee309]

is it cold during the monsoon season????

[tokee1234567]

nope. it's cool. the temperature in the summer is normally 32-35 degrees celcius in korea. during the monsoon season it cools down to about 26 degrees or so. it's not that hot because in korea humidity is what determines the hot weather.

[mikakostar]

LOL ~!

gosh thats a puddle of doom!

really bad,rainy weather.

Smart Idea bout the "condom umbrella"

You guys allways make it fun outta a sticky weather situation.

[suadream]

i like monsoon weather than sunshine weather.

i love rainy day..

[monocell0515]

I'm from Bucheon and now live in the US. It's good to see familiar places in your video. I miss the pouring rain! :)

[YuMiistar]

oh, i heard about that. the weather is horrible. hehe, i love those umbrella things~

[xjoongiex]

[heart10007]

[jackthekim]

[springlot]
