Korean Dating, Culture, and Music with David Kim | Korea Deconstructed

David Kim is many things but is perhaps best known for his Korean content on Youtube. He has been a huge part of three popular programs over the last seven years: DKDKTV, Ramyun and Chill, and, now, Korean Pizza Club.

His content has reached millions and is driven by his positive and generous outlook on life, something even more evident when meeting him in person.

We spoke about how hallyu has changed, whether K-pop is still cool, Korean dating culture, and life here in Seoul. We even got political at the end, exploring the challenges of democracy and communism and what hope young people have for the future.
