Korean Home Plus

[Eternaldiamond77]

naturalthing1, unless you live in koreA or you are Korean yourself how do you know what their full culture is like? If they are the shame of Asia then what about a person who likes to complain? What does that person become?

[Eternaldiamond77]

Omg why are some people such racists? And Korea isn't a bad place to visit if you got the right places. And for the Japanese dude who commented a while ago, in a lot of Japanese marts you have to pay separately at different corners. If you like Japan than go watch something Japanese, why watch Korea and tell others while swearing that it's bad

[CloudyMay]

"This puts Sam's to shame," that cracked me up.

[ikawaiirandom]

2:05 i started GOL ( Giggling out loud) hehhehe

[JHoward393]

[MinzyAlly93]

[lorenax17]

Martina looks so pretty here =]

[TranceportationX]

[Animefreakgirl1881]

The grocery store at the end looks a lot like H-Mart!!! Well, go figure because it's a Korean store...lame! :/

[SunShineCrafties]

Damn, yall could have made a meal out of all of those free samples >.<

[RingoinWonderLand]

[Mikusukidayo]

Martina was so cute with her long hair :O

[QUINTUSMAXIMUS]

I love Homeplus! It's great. I haven't been to E-Mart lately. I should go there, too.

[kazoo61]

the groceries store looks pretty normal in all asian countries,,almost all asian countries has little food court in front of the stores,,and the promotion things are common as well,,

[itsdory]

@naturalthing1 sounds like someone has an inferiority complex.

[ChristinaNgeow]

Wow, Martina with normal hair O___O

[GoldfishLight]

@naturalthing1 because korea is a fucking badass place to visit.

[naturalthing1]

Why would you even want to go Korea?

[alexisannquirk]

@naturalthing1 Why wouldnt you...

[naturalthing1]

@alexisannquirk Because Korea is 30 years behind the times compared to Japan.

[kyw365]

@naturalthing1 how ridiculous and dim-witted you sound.. gtfo Youtube -_-;;

[Sharon369369369]

@naturalthing1 wow 30 years behind compared to Japannnnnnnnn.ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ­ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ­ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ­ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ­is there any proof?:)

[SungJongiesMine]

@naturalthing1 i think YOU'RE behind lol... don't worry, one day you will grow out of your ignorance :) 

[pianomusician4life]

If u live by an H-Mart (a korean supermarket all over the U.S.) , u can experience similar things like samples every 2 ft. lol

[lunarmoon1]

Omg I laughed so hard on the fart aisle sound hahahah

[nyappyLanD]

It looks a lot like Mexican supermarket Soriana, they have the food court, and the lobsters (they also have fish ._.) and the weird offers that make no sense, and the organization of the store in general, I mean even things are placed in similar places... is fun to see the similarities between Korea and my country , Mexico :'D

[noshills]

Um martina looks so Canadian.. In this video. Like she looks so much better and adorable today

[Didibujos]

Martina it's so thin in this vid o:

[TheLegend1245]

[Aggiesgigem]

Back before they got all asianafide. Miss these days

[SeunghoDaebak]

[scottismegapants]

[seichan09]

[themonkwithin]

@seichan09 you can pretty much survive anywhere with out knowing their native language

[seichan09]

@themonkwithin very true

[xoxkuroshitsujigrell]

2:03 he's riding the cart xD I would do the same :D

[muybridge54]

Ummm... that's not the "fart spray" aisle. That sound-sensitive display was for mosquito repellant (LOL!)

[WeIrDGirlProduction]

Sams Club xD I was like 'OH MY GOSH, THEY KNOW SAMS CLUB' when Simon said that..For some odd reason:P

[lolllipopmania]

excuse me, but fart spray aisle?

Someone PLEASE enlighten meeeeeeeeee!!!!

I'm so curious i can'st stand it!!!!!

[cooxia1215]

[jabbers23]

[inuerica]

[rikka52]

[sweetchoco0525]

I FRIGGEN MISS KOREA IF I GO I PROMISE I WILL MEET YOU

[UH60Hwkdrvr]

You guys Rock!!!!! Most folks go to Korea and knock the culture as being too different from the North American culture. You guys highlighted the many positive aspects of your shopping experiences. Good on you guys! I lived in Korea for five years and fell in love with the people and the culture. I am now back in America and I am truly missing Korea. Good Job!!!

[musicfreakk7]

Lol "this puts sams club in shame" x)

[yellowpokerman]

china or corea?

[keetaekim]

@yellowpokerman

[ImaChii]

[xXshininRoXstarzxX]

I like buying stuff that are taped to stuff. :3

[ShiningMirine]

It's really good to see foreigners enjoying their stay in korea. Thank you ^^

[feifus]

Looks like the T&T grocery stores you can find everywhere in Toronto :D

[p0p0ringo]

[nawiwu]

Now THATS observing. good method! u cn learn korean like that easily right?

[gyqz]

You are sooooooooooo like dutch people going on vacation :' we need to stuff our car up full of things you can't buy in another country, because we just can't do without our dutch products' I love you guys anyway.....

[MintArchAngel]

Haha xD Puts Sam's Club to shammeee! D:

[MsDohnut]

2:05 man that guy is pushing his trolley fast! He floored that isle in less than 2 seconds!

[fuzzy15946]

looks like tnt :D

[tokee1234567]

@fuzzy15946 well homeplus, emart of usual Korean big markets are 4-5 stories tall. so it's like x5 of tnt

[TheAzianMidget]

this reminds me of the TNT markets we have in Canada <3 :)

[CharliesRetardity]

THERES SOMTHING IN THE MIST!! 4:00 and ends at 4:12

[mn55426]

Lol@ Sam's club...I love it I go there all the time hehe.

[GuybrushK]

That is not a fart spray but a mosquito repellent at 1:44

[nivlas1]

Great vid (for those of us heading there). Comforting.

[denntheidiot]

LOL. noobs.

[GimmeKitty]

This looks cool. Thank you :)

[jacob7207]

HomePlus are amazing. They make Korea so much more enjoyable, especially in the summer.

[davidlee9112]

you were joking about the fart spray aisle right??lol or did u rlly think that was a fart spray aisle??

[Jun9095]

it looks much more spacious and more interesting than our super tesco...xDD

[aliskey62389]

it's like Costco!

[cozyhj]

its nt rli a symbol.. bt i love u guys anyways :) lol

[blahk04]

haha 2:05 , do all Koreans go down aisles 50mph?

[emonita137]

so much free food o.o we have samples like once a month here *fail*

[lossunbearable]

What the heck is a fart spray? air freshener?does it make you not fart?

[ozaki1]

learn to read! It's the easiest Asian variety, and very simple indeed. They're no 'symbols' - they're words made up of alphabets!

[simonandmartina]

@ozaki1 Yes, we know that. However, when you're in Korea for 2 days and need to buy shampoo and no one speaks English, sometimes you have to get creative. Now we can read Korean with no problem.

[NakuTie77]

@simonandmartina Oh, lol I was about to ask why you don't read Korean. XD Heehee. Did you know any Korean before you two went there?

[cccshp]

@simonandmartina That's great. I know so many foreigners think that they don't need to learn the language because they don't encounter the situation they MUST know Korean usually.

[JosKiddin]

@ozaki1 Korean writing are symbols.... same as Japan and China (for what i know)

[tokee1234567]

@JosKiddin japanese and korean are syllabaries. chinese is symbol oriented and is competely different than the japanee and korean writing system. for japanese except for 2 letters every letter is a syllabary with consonant+vowel, but korean has individual letter for all vowels and consonants

[Serenitypinkity]

@tokee1234567 wait so korean is consonant + vowel = a word right? for hangul

[tokee1234567]

@Serenitypinkity beginning consonant + vowel + bottom consonant = one complete letter. beginning consonant + vowel still makes up a letter, and you need at least both of them to make a letter

[Serenitypinkity]

@tokee1234567 Thanks ^^ but what if a word starts with a vowel like anneoyonghaseo do u just put the consonant under that?

[naturalthing1]

@ozaki1 they don't need to learn it. Hangul is a dirty language. Korean is for stupid people. That's why they don't use Kanji and Kana like smart Japanese

[kurye1004]

@naturalthing1 Hello, Fucking OZAKI JAPANESE MONKEY BOY! Shame on Japanese! your language copied Chinese Character. that's why you are monkies which copy any others!

[animecrazi29]

now i know not to pack shampoo :) i'm studying abroad in korea in december so i'm enjoying all yall's videos :D

[heymanhaha]

lol at the random shit taped to another random shit... never looked at it that way. i just buy them without complaining :D

[7LovinDaLife]

wtf?.... who wants to know about shampoos and stuff.... this is junk.. i thought it was going to be interesting and fun to look at the times when I was in korea...

[72daystar]

Some one gave you advice that was true (and still is true for small towns) five to seven years ago. Gotta luv the serbeuseu! [a Konglish use of service]

Oh, how I love to shop and snack at Homeplus, Lottemart, or E-mart. They give you their sales-pitch (which I mostly don't understand) you get the sample; dumpling, fried pork, tofu with chopped onions and soy sauce. then just smile and say thanks. it's awesome.

[bubbles02010]

the floor is so shiny!

[aznwhoenjoycomedy]

what level of education do you need to be a teacher ?

[Decapoe]

We managed to find cheese and Gillette razor blades here too! I only managed to find one Armani store though, It was opposite the Gucci shop here in P/Busan:P Take all internet info with a grain of salt.or don't don't listen.

[13nileyrocks]

LOL " puts sam's club(costco) to shame. you see like every 2 meters there are sample stands." im korean so could understand a bit of what theyre saying.

[nuk3zord]

haha I cracked up when he said that.

[claslow]

I really do agree that they don't have numbers on pillar. that would be very good way to give directions to consumers, but for daily consumers.. they just know the exit, which is kinda near the entrance.

[mindfuldisaster]

gotta love the random bundles that come with korean products :)

[JustJappyNess]

OMG this is just AMAZING! free tasters!! nothing like that here =___=

[jungyoon]

Home Pluuuuuuus <3

I miss my life in Korea sooo much ~

[ShiroKreuz]

Damn korea seems intesting ive allways just been japan japan but damn korea is kinda cool too..

[Ayumura96]

that was me 3 years ago, i was so in luv with jpop then koreans got the best of me XD

[ShiroKreuz]

well i dont care about japan that much anymore really i think it would be cool to visit japan but its not that special and man something funny made me wanna reconsider visitin korea some friends said the place was horrible and every place smelled bad and stuff they just wanted back here and some relatives friend from work said it was horrible too i dont understand..

[crystalblueeyes]

"puts sam club to shame"

Ha ha. I love Sams club but I agree, Home plus looks awesome.

[ACshorty96]

korea more known as tesco in the uk.homeplus is the korean name...i am korean

[priscybaby24]

@ACshorty96 so it is tescos i knew it i could tell by the price labels

[ACshorty96]

@priscybaby24 more less i went to Korea to visit my aunts wedding and my dad told me homeplus is tesco

[canuckasiangal]

I haven't been to korea for years since moving back to Canada. The reason for it is hard to find the deodorants is because East Asian people do not normally have B.O. Also Korea is not like some of the rudimentary and developing parts of China or other developing countries where you can't find extra amenities in the countryside. Many foreigners know about China & Japan, but Korea is still unknown hermit kingdom. It's a developed country with complex infrastructures & high living standard.

[jungyoon]

As for deodorants, you can find some at Skin Food for approximativly 3'000 W.

[DOTQWERTY218]

it is hard to find deodorant thought. lol

[crown4life]

you guys prolly have all those stuff because you live in a CITY. people in towns and countries will obviously have the basic korean stuff..so i guess depending on where you're going, pack appropriately. or take a trip to the city to shop :)

[buddyclubs]

if u want good, healthy, real, tasty food, just go to asian country

you will be taken care of + you will live longer too!!! : D Or if u can't afford it, go shop at asian stores!!!

[sunanafan]

that's not entirely true. some asian food are absolutely appallingly fattening. watch out especially for some chinese food!

[geminielf7]

why does it sound like you guys are pissed off through out the video?

[bixlerscott]

Yep, just go to Seoul for your Western fix. Out in the country, it's basics like water, potatoes, rice, tissue, etc. Real coffee can be tricky outside major cities as I don't like the instant coffee. Gmarket was my favorite most useful shopping while in the countryside where you don't have modern facilities. That store is very large. The big city is where the action, eating, culture, arts, and shopping is to be had. I'd advise you to go teach in the city if single. My mistake to go rural.

[NeillWells]

I am moving to Korea and really like your very practical comments on the every day stuff I need to know. Thank you!!

[bucketoftsuki]

Man. Costco is no longer my favourite place in the world.

[tokee1234567]

you guys are awesome in trying to show more about Korea!! not many people know about Korea as well as they do about some other asian countries so I'm glad that you guys like Korea!!

[MobileKitteh]

I love Home Plus! My husband gets so mad every time I ask if he can take me to Home Plus. Perhaps it's because I ask everyday?

[Y0b0mi]

hey im worried about my hair products also, i am black and im coming to korea this august by any chance did you see any hair products for african americans???

[Garepp]

Yeah, it's totally untrue that you can't find deodorant, condoms and western brands in Korea. Maybe if you're stuck in the country.

[materialist126]

haha this pretty helpful.. i was worried i wouldn't find any american products there

[orestria]

still best to bring deodorant, but shampoo soap and stuff are easy

ps, in case anyone doesnt' know, korean (konglish) for conditioner is rinse

[Avveh]

God I love Korea. :D

And this DOES put Sams Club to shame. Jeez, I'm gonna go there now and be all disappointed and tell the Home Plus does it better. Mhmm.

[Lukychrm42]

Homeplus keeps me sane, which is scary when I see the Special K with socks attached, or when I do a happy dance over finding something new... hmm I think maybe I do need to venture over to the new store, because I'm thinking my nearby location is looking pretty pathetic. And I'm mad that they gave up on Jif after a month and haven't had the wholewheat pasta lately.

[xcarcrashlovers]

that's even better than costco!! </3

[simonandmartina]

This Homeplus is in Bucheon City near the Sopooong Mall/bus terminal. The entire alcohol section is big; all types of rum, vodka, soju, traditional korean drink, a wine section (plus wine fridge), and lots of beer. Off the top of my head, I can remember seeing: moosehead, asahi, sappora, a beer with a panda on it. I think it's a Chinese beer.

[bixlerscott]

Yea, Homeplus does carry much more selection than Emart at better prices and extra service; those little packs taped on. I was in Changwon my 1st year and found Homeplus to beat the pants off of Emart. The problem is during my 2nd assignment to Korea is none of this shopping is to be found in Gangwon-do like in all the other provinces.

Where is this Homeplus? How the import beer selection in that Homeplus?

[randommusicvideo]

i understand :P

[SingThatMELODY]

seriously, i love your videos!! lol.

both of your ad libs are just hilarious!

"this puts sams club to shame' lol.

I was thinking costco right when i saw the scene!

[sugarkang]

the coffee comparison was fucking hilarious.

[ongBakvue]

lol "this puts sams club to shame" hahah

[Santokiii]

lol at the kid on the cart at 2:05

[whotyuu]

Ahahaha. Lolololol.

Lol at you noticing that.

[groovyretrochick]

That is a cool video. My mom is from korea but I've yet to visit there.

[cornbread0715]

there are a ton of white people over here what you dont see is alot of black people like myself

[msredwun]

well you will see me in two weeks! lol

[cornbread0715]

What you coming for ?

[msredwun]

to teach

[btd8002]

How does it feel to be the only white people in the store? LOL!

The tallest and best-looking. :)

[4q2pab]

Bucheon! Awesome!

You missed the fireworks section!

[ajussiwannabe]

Dude, that was a lavendar scented bug killer spray...puhahaha

[NejiHyuuga1337]

FREE FOOOD!!! SAMPLES!!! if it aint free its overpriced!! cool vid
