$2 Korean Microwave Pizza

Hello, so I just came back from shopping,

got some bits and bobs, and I got a brand

spanking new pot So I can get

back to cooking. It's a bit annoying this

Airbnb doesn't have a frying pan or any

cooking equipment, so I had to buy my own.

And I walked round and round trying to

find a place that sold pots, and then I

finally found this marketplace. Had to

speak to this Korean lady in Korean. Uh,

it was quite nice actually, she was very

friendly. I feel like I'm starting to get

used to life here. It's a bit strange,

this area is kind of poor and run-down and

it's not very convenient. It's hard to

find the kind of shops and supermarkets

that I wanted to find, but after walking

around for hours and hours, I finally

found what I wanted to find and I think

I can get back into the daily routine of

buying food and cooking the food and

filming. But today I won't be doing any

cooking. I just got some microwave stuff.

I spent a total of 14,000

won, which is about $11, I think. And I

got scissors, so that cost a few dollars.

So actually, this food only cost about $8

to $9. So I've got a big bag of bananas,

which is good for vitamins. I need to

start eating more fruit. The problem is

the peels are going to start rotting in my

garbage disposal area. I'll show you what

I'm doing with the garbage.

I just put it all in that big plastic bag

and I wash any plastic that has,

you know, sauce on it or leftover bits of

food. I wash all of the, the empty

containers to get rid of all the sauce so

it doesn't start smelling, and then I just

put it into there. But with the bananas,

the peel starts going to start rotting,

isn't it? So At some point in the near

future, I'm going to have to find out how

to get rid of my garbage. I think I just

leave it by the front door at the entrance

of the building. That's what everyone else

does. I saw loads of bags of garbage down

there, so maybe I'll just do that.

Anyway, I've got some healthy bananas and

I've got this pizza that I should

be able to make in the microwave. Look,

50 to 60 seconds in the microwave.

Isn't it going to be all soggy? Well,

we'll find out later, I guess. This could

be the thumbnail, maybe thumbnail like

that. Green background looks like a green

screen pizza combo.

And I've got these pair of scissors

because I can't do cooking without

scissors. How am I supposed to open

things? And this Airbnb doesn't have

scissors either. And I've got this

tiny little pizza which looks much better

than the microwave pizza. That looks nice.

I'll have this for tomorrow's breakfast.

And then this— I got

this smoked

duck and stir-fried spicy pork. Very

tempting. Look at that duck.

Mmm, duck kimchi,

and we've got spicy pork and rice.

And I also got this chocolate donut for

dessert. I thought I'd treat myself.

Where's my receipt so I can show you how

much all this cost? I went to this store

called CU, which is a pretty popular store

here in Korea. It's kind of like a

convenience store slash mini supermarket.

So I got the bananas. Oh my God,

1,600 won! Are you kidding me?

Is this half price?

Bananas. 1,600 won is not even a dollar.

That's like 80 cents. That can't be right.

I got 5 or 6— no,

there's 5. I got 5 bananas for under a

dollar. Are you joking me?

Well, that's what it says, 1,600 won for 5

bananas. That is a good deal. And then I

got this, um, smoky dark and spicy pork

for 4,800 won, which is about just under

$4, I think. And then I got the cream

bread. What's that?

Cream bread? I think that's the pizza,

the mini pizza. And I got the giant

pizza, GG,

2,700 won. Chocolate donut

was 1,000 won. Wow, this CU shop's pretty

cheap actually. Much better than the

supermarket I was going to before. And I

got a pair of scissors for 3,200 won.

Total of 14,000 won, about $11, I guess.

So the pizza cost $2.20.

Let's see if it's any good.

Wow, it's been 4 minutes and I haven't

even opened it. First of all, have to open

my new scissors. Look at those,

what a pair of beauties.

Oh yes, my very own pair of scissors.

So now we can get into this pizza. Oh no.

Yes. Oh, it smells pretty good.

Hmm, so that's what it looks like.

And it says I have to put it into the

microwave for 50 to 60 seconds.

Plastic plates, very classy.

Wow.

Oh, looks pretty good.

Oh, it's hot. Ouch, ouch.

Microwave pizza. Look at that.

This is a good thumbnail, isn't it?

Korean microwave pizza.

Hmm. I have some bad news about that girl

that I really like. She hasn't

replied to me in 2 days now.

So if you remember the last video, I think

I mentioned that the last message I sent

her was asking her what she did today. I

asked her, what did you do today? You

know, to try and start a conversation.

Well, she didn't reply, and then the next

day I sent her another message. I know

that's bad. People say, don't keep sending

her messages, she's going to think you're

desperate. But I couldn't help it, and I

sent her another message saying— you're

gonna laugh at what I sent her. I said,

when could we go on another date? I really

like you, smiley face. Now you're probably

cringing right now at how terrible of an

idea that was, but listen, I have

reasons. I kind of just figured

that she's not interested in me. That's

why she takes so long to reply, and she's

not really talking— she's not really

talking to me much. So I thought, well,

she doesn't like me, then what do I have

to lose? Might as well just tell her that

I like her.

She probably isn't gonna reply. I don't

know. It's been— when did I— I sent the

message yesterday. And the last time she

replied to me was 2 days ago, so it's

not looking good. And I do feel kind of

sad because I really liked her and I

thought she's pretty cool, and she's

probably the cutest girl I've ever been on

a date with.

But what can I do? I feel like I did

everything wrong. Number 1, I should have

messaged her number, not her Tinder.

And then number 2, I should have known how

to make a KakaoTalk ID. I thought you

needed a Korean number to make one, but

you don't. I was just clicking on the

wrong thing.

And then I messaged her a stupid question,

what did you do today? That's like the

most boring question you could ever think

of. I should have just asked her straight

away when we could go on another date.

I just messed it up really bad. I don't

even know if she was interested in me in

the first place.

Hmm, pizza's pretty good.

Obviously it's soggy because it was in the

microwave,

but for a soggy pizza Not bad,

not bad at

all.

I'm a bit worried about the virus. Not

sure if you've seen the news or not, but

there was a big outbreak In the fourth

largest city in Korea. Luckily, it's quite

far down south, so it's quite far

away. But people

were telling me that I should leave the

country before the airports get locked

down.

I don't want to leave because I'm getting

so many matches on Tinder.

And all these girls are willing to come on

dates with me.

I'm quite enjoying life in Korea.

It's nice. I've got my own apartment, got

my own pizza, got my own scissors.

Just as I'm getting used to it, And just

as I'm enjoying the dating life,

bloody virus has to mess up everything,

doesn't it?

I actually had 2 dates cancel on me

because of the virus. I was supposed to go

on a date yesterday on Friday, she

cancelled on me. And then I was supposed

to go on a date this evening as well,

with a different one, she also cancelled

on me because she said she was coughing

and she was worried.

She was worried she might have the virus.

I'm actually a bit worried I might have

the virus because, well, don't tell

anyone, but last night I

used a you-know-what. She came here. And

it was the first time I had ever seen a

girl with hairy armpits.

Her armpits were hairy, not really bushy,

but quite short. She just probably trimmed

them, but she didn't shave them, and they

were furry when I touched them.

But she had a blocked nose and she was

She said it was just the cold.

She was nice,

but she was kind of low energy, like very

sleepy,

maybe because she has a cold.

I think I prefer the other one. She was

more talkative, more cheerful.

But she's a bit noisy. People would

definitely hear if she was as noisy as she

was last time.

I can't believe this cost $2. Such a

good price. $2 pizza.

Well, actually, now that I think about it,

I remember Casey Neistat used to go and

get $1 pizzas all the time, and they were

like these huge slices just for $1.

So maybe this isn't that great of a deal.

Yeah, well, I can't fly all the way to New

York, can I?

The virus is ruining things quite a lot

because the girls I'm supposed to be going

on dates with, they're getting scared as

well and they don't want to go

I guess it's a good thing I don't really

go out much. Now everyone's hiding

in their rooms, not just me.

There's this other Korean girl that I'm

talking to and she's quite flirty, so that

could lead somewhere.

So my plan is I'll wait until

tomorrow to see if that girl replies or

not, and then I'll make my video for the

It will probably be called something like,

she rejected me,

and then I just complain about being

rejected and making

all these mistakes and forgetting

to change my gender from woman to man.

I'll tell you why it was set to women in

the first place, because I was using my

second Tinder account to pretend to be my

ex. It was a video idea that I never did.

I was going to pretend to be my ex

and then chat to some guys and see if

there were any funny messages, but there

were no funny messages. All the guys were

really boring. They just said, hi, how are

you? And Nice to meet you.

I got about 5,000 matches in a

few days,

so I decided to scrap the pretending to be

my ex-girlfriend on Tinder idea, and I

changed it all back to me, back to my

pictures, back to my description. But I

forgot to change the gender back to man.

Oh well.

Haven't really been doing much these days.

I just sit on my bed chatting to girls on

Tinder and different apps trying to get

dates sorted out.

Then I look for food. Then I might film a

video, watch Star Trek. I finished

watching Star Trek Original.

There's only 3 seasons. I thought there

and there wasn't even like an ending.

There wasn't an ending to the series. It

just randomly ended on one episode.

So I started watching Star Trek: Next

Generation.

It's okay, I guess.

I don't like this Q guy. I don't like

these really overpowered beings who can

teleport and travel time and

make things appear and disappear just

like, just like that. I feel like it's too

overpowered, too unbelievable.

It was nice seeing McCoy in the first

episode. It's kind of sad knowing

that they've all passed away now, apart

from Shatner. William Shatner's still

alive, isn't he? But McCoy,

Spock, who's the engineering guy?

Scotty. Yeah, they're all gone now.

Sulu's still alive, isn't he?

It was really touching seeing McCoy,

one of the old generation heroes,

kind of passing on the torch to the next

generation of Star Trek characters.

It's a bit sad seeing that. Makes you

think, doesn't it? We're all gonna get

old. We're all going to go.

We're all going to pass away. I'm trying

very hard not to say the D word because I

don't think YouTube likes it. Well, that

was my pizza. It was pretty good pizza,

but I'm still hungry.

Not many people outside.

It's dark. It feels strange being so close

to people just walking past and all the

traffic. They're just right down there and

I'm up here. It was pretty

hot when you think about it because I was

on this bed with that girl and then

everyone's just walking around outside

down there. There's just like this thin

wall separating us.

Yeah, this is life in Korea. I don't know

if you think this is depressing or not.

It's okay, I guess. You know, I've got my

own place, making money,

I've got food, I've got everything I need

apart from human companionship, I guess.

Would be nice to have a girlfriend at some

point, but I think the chances of getting

a girlfriend before I have to go are kind

of slim. Well, I'm gonna go and eat my

banana and watch Star Trek, so see you

next time. We'll find out tomorrow if she

replies or not. Pretty sure she's not

gonna reply ever again.
