A Vlog celebrating all things South Korean created by Simon and Martina Stawski. High school teachers in Canada, the Stawski's moved to South Korea in 2008 to teach English. The vlog started as way of reassuring their parents that they were OK and has grown exponentially since.

The Stawski's create videos sharing their discoveries about Korean culture. Topics range from how to light a furnace or use the washing machine, to street food, nightlife, music, and what ever else captures their attention. They started the vlog at a time when very few in South Korea were using blogs or vlogs. They were among the first to seriously discuss Korean popular music (KPop) artists in a format beyond that of the gossip columns.
