A lot has changed since I last updated this blog. I’m at a really great place in my life with a healthy relationship and a job that lets me do what I love. If you want to keep updated the best way is to follow me on on IG: @leeyuck and I also have started blogging on my own site: youvegotliam.com. I hope everyone’s well and finding their own way through life. Tumblr meant a lot to me and has helped me get through some really dark times but I’ve since grown from everything and ready to move on :) 

Just realized that I never posted the last two installments of the series so those were the two previous posts on the blog. This is just an update vlog and my way of kind of wrapping up the Korea chapter of my life. I still really hate talking to the camera but welp. Hope all’s well with everyone!

Happy holidays! My main motivation to finish this series (there’s only two more installments!) is the fact that I really, really, really want to get working on new, closer-to-present-day footage. Anyway, enjoy my last couple of days of teaching before I head off to Seoul and act like a complete mess.

Another week of work, rowdy yet cute children, and teaching educational yet fun lessons ◠‿◠ I talk more about my co-teacher and staff and spend the rest of the video complaining about the heat...

Oh, and me... drunk? In Korea??? In the drunkest country in the world???? You don’t say! Can we not shame people for drinking and acting a fool? I try to show as honest of a portrayal of my time in Korea and if that sometimes includes lots of complaining, drinking, and other things that some people might shake their head at  then so be it... I at least know that I'm not sugar-coating anything and I hope it'll prove to be more helpful to those watching. Besides, everyone's a mess sometimes ◕ ‿ ◕  

After a month of traveling and failing to upload anything, I think I’m finally back to rolling out videos and am ready to finish this “Leaving Korea” series. I already miss my kids and job so much. Oh, Korea.

On the Road [unedited] 7/28/2015; I spent a good part of my time in Cambodia racing on a tuk tuk from one temple to the other. Here is a glimpse of the people we encountered along the way. 

Hiked Wolchulsan in Yeongam county, negated all the calorie burned with ice cream and dakgalbi/닭갈비 in Gwangju, and then watched both my home teams lose their respective volleyball match-ups at the World University Games (USA vs. Finland, Korea vs. Chile).  ◕ ‿ ◕ Hiking is a huge deal here! I’m from Chicago, yo. Midwest plains. I’m forever mesmerized by anything bigger than a speed bump.
