My parents and I are flying on separate flights, so I'm gonna meet them in Korea and we'll be arriving around the same time.
I just ended up like that because they were already scheduled for that particular flight.
Finally landed in korea there's like no one at the airport today.
Last time i came to korea i was waiting in the customs line for like three hours and i was gonna lose it, but thank god there's no one here.
My parents are landing in like two hours, but I'm going to the hotel first to check in and whatnot.
And I'm going to order some room service because I'm so hungry.
Some more spaghetti.
Room service.
Yes, hello.
Can I order now?
Yes.
I'll have one seafood spaghetti.
20 minutes, I'm gonna rest.
BRB!
Yeah!
Hello from Korea.
I'm in Korea with my parents, and this trip is a little bit more special than my other usual trips in Korea.
Actually our first time as a family in Korea all together since we immigrated crazy.
I'm basically here in korea to help my parents move in and settle into their new apartment.
They're officially retired and have moved back to their home country, which i'm really happy about.
We've got a lot of things to do.
I'm just very excited for them.
Honestly, i wanted to renovate their apartment and i started renovation at the beginning of the year and it was completed like a few months back.
But now this is like the grand reveal.
I have to find all the furniture and all of that.
But overall, right now I'm just feeling very grateful and very emotional and I just feel very fortunate.
Can't wait.
We're waiting for our bus to get here but our goal today is to look for a sofa.
Do I want this too much?
I know I have burned you once before.
If you open the bag like this, you'll be able to see all five of them.
It is 4 a.m.
I'm super jet lagged and I'm hungry, so I'm gonna go to the convenience store to get some breakfast with my dad.
And it is feeling like winter.
It is cold.
Oh my gosh.
Me and my mom are on our way to get our hair done.
Just finished getting my hair done.
I got a perm.
Four hours later, I'm done getting my hair done.
Starving, so we're here at Dari Sikdang, which is right behind the hair salon.
And I love this place.
It's so good.
They're known for their frozen pork belly, and I just love all the banchan that it comes with.
It feels like I'm eating after a long time.
I'm about to get the Dijon injection.
This is the salmon DNA injection that's like super popular right now.
Last time I was in Korea, I got it and I really loved the results.
So I wanted to get it again.
My hair salon is literally across the street, so it kind of works out.
Jet lag is definitely kicking in.
Good morning from korea, by the way.
I just got a skin treatment.
That's why my skin is looking a little crazy right now, if you can see.
I know i'm traveling right now, but i want to take a moment and do a little therapy check-in.
We are close to the end of the year now.
I just want to reflect on my therapy journey and a big thank you to better health for sponsoring this portion of the video.
Therapy for me this year has been transformative.
Generally I would consider myself a very anxious person.
I tend to put a lot of stress and pressure on myself and I completely just drive myself to the ground.
I'm very burnt out, but through therapy I've really learned to like navigate my own feelings and emotions and I just think I'm just more self-aware.
Really think that's the beauty of therapy.
If you're looking to start therapy, I know how intimidating it can be sometimes just starting.
I first started off therapy on BetterHelp and they just make it really easy to connect with a therapist and get started.

Today is our last day at the hotel.
We are moving into our new apartment.
Good, good, good, good, good.
Thank you.
Oh.
Wow, it's so bright.
Wow.
Look at those nails.
Oh.
Don't know how I can explain.
You're the cure to all my pain.
This is actually my first time seeing it in person.
I've only seen photos and videos.
It is so beautiful.
I'm so happy with how everything came out.
Before the renovation, the place wasn't still in really good condition.
I just wanted to renovate it.
Your sunshine after rain
