Overview
While walking through an area in Korea filled with restaurants, izakayas, and basement karaoke spots, a companion clarifies their heritage as half Malaysian and half English rather than Japanese.
The group attempts to attend a meetup at GSM Terrace but leaves almost immediately after finding it nearly empty with only three men in the corner, jokingly remarking that Daniel dislikes people.
After struggling to unlock and ride electric scooters while balancing and filming, the group travels to Coex Mall and walks through its large, echoey interior.
Daniel and a companion enter George's Airbnb apartment, commenting on the view, raising concerns about potential doxxing from showing the window, and trying to guess the monthly rental price.
