Welcome, I'll be introducing car scenes in Korea, and here I am with my buddies
at a car wash. We'll see how it goes! Golf Cabriolet,
Tivoli. It's a compact SUV from Korean brand called SsangYong, and it's really
popular and famous in Korea for CUV lineups. Korean pride, Korean pride.
Genesis Coupe, I believe this is a 3.8 model NA, Naturally Aspirated, and
there's another Genesis Coupe, this one I know for sure is a 2.0. Oh pardon me,
maybe not. It's got a nice GT wing on the back, it's fully carbon and this is
called CJ carbon-fiber GT spoiler, made specifically for a genesis coupe racing
competition held by company called CJ in Korea. One of the big conglomerates in Korea.
It's got good decals on it in, Inje 2018, Inje is racing circuit in Korea
located in east side of Korea, Gangwon-do. World-famous Gumout, performance
additives. Slick 50. It's currently running on some performance tires.
What's up you guys!
and this is my buddy.
Running on Brembos, and let's see what the wheels are.
I think it's, I believe it's the Enkei's. Correct me if I'm wrong.
Performance tires from Vitour, and the lineup is called Tempesta Enzo.
Enzo Ferrari I guess.
And this car's got a lot of sponsors on it, sponsor decals as you can see.
These are some famous tuners in Korea.
Big-ass splitter on the front, and canards on the side each side.
Cleaning his C63 AMG sedan, as you all know, it's a V8 Biturbo, currently it's pushing
It's all stock from the factory, pushing 476 horsepower to those rear two tires. It's crazy.
Here is a BMW 1M, world famous 1M, I heard price is going up
striking high in the States. Same thing. Same thing happening in Korea.
Price is only going up never going down. And it's nearly impossible to get a
brand, you know clean titled 1M, accident-free, but this is accident-free one.
And actually it's got entire body wrapped in a PPF, the paint protection film.
Like said, PPF'd all around, glossed and shining like
brand-new. Look at that mirror. It's all twisted backwards I didn't know if,
I don't know if all the M's do this, but or just this, but that's sick.
I didn't know you can actually twist the mirror all this, all this much.
So he says all the E-body M's do this, I don't know about the F, let me know.
And he's got aftermarket calipers, 6-piston on the front, 4-piston on the rear.
Upgraded good enough brakes to the maximum, the extreme. Let's look at these exhausts.
Pardon me if I pronounce it wrong, but Remus, I don't know which country it is
from. I'm a JDM guy, just so you guys know, I know a lot of famous exhausts,
or systems for the cars on the JDM's, but not so much for the German.
At the time I got all interested in cars, I didn't have no money, so I couldn't
really afford any German cars, but JDM's. But I know that Remus is really
famous system for the M's. And this is what the overall scene is like, for this
car wash, self car wash.
I am currently in a place called, city called, Suwon. Friday afternoon and weekend
afternoon like today, today is Saturday by the way. It's really compact and full with cars.
People who care about their cars.
The Korean car scene in general
have changed a lot over the past few years. It's less than a decade ago,
it was really hard to find a, you know, imported cars
aside from Hyundai and Kia - just heads up - if you guys don't know Hyundai and
Kia is um Korean brand and yep, so I'm not so sure about the statistics, but in
Korea, over seventy percent I'm pretty sure on the 70 part, if not 80 percent
of the cars are domestic. That car over there SsangYong I told you about, it's also
um domestic it sounds like something you know not non-Korean, but it is Korean
company, so ever first N-line, Veloster N, and I don't know if you guys
know, but N actually stands for the first letter, initial of the city where
their laboratory was, Namyang. It's not hard to find out that those cities name
actually starts with the letter N. Some rumors had it that they actually chased
after the brand name M to get some glowing effects off of it, but truth be
told, Hyundai guys actually told that it stands for the first letter of the
city Namyang, N, so there you go. Hope you get one knowledge away
from my video, this is my first video ever, so I don't know how this will go,
but hopefully this was entertaining.
I'm really thankful by the way, for my first viewers ever as you can see this
is my first video ever, so feel free to leave any comments or feedback.
Any room for me to improve on, and just so you know I'm not English native so my
English may not be all perfect, but I lived and studied in the States for
about 15 years plus, there's where I got, well I'll save that for later. If you
guys are ever interested about me, you know, I'll share the story.
My plans for the channel is, I wanted to share this Korean car culture to the world.
If not just States or anybody who speaks English I can share the
knowledge with, because if you Google YouTube it, you'll see thousands of
videos and you know educational material, if not, just anything, about car scenes
in Japan and US, but last time I googled it, which is yesterday, or youtubed it,
there is just this you know, video making fun of Korean car scene by world
famous Doug, saying that you know Korean cars are all made out of white, black and
gray colors, I mean that is quite the case I mean you see those cars over
there so call the regular commuter cars, that's and also I'll share the story
about that but if you look at the color of my friend's car right here
the CUV it's made out of red, the blue wrap, and there's a red car over there
too behind that white sedan, but you see over here Porsche with the navy
color, so it's uh, everything about what Doug has said is not all that true, and
as time goes by if you watch my video clips coming up, you'll see what I'm what
I'm talking about we got some good deal of JDM cars and
some of the unique scenes limited, well I wouldn't say limited, but
some scenes and cultures that you find in Korea. Also I have buddies down
in US Army base, if you didn't know, Korea's got a number of US Army base
ever since the Korean War, thank you for your service, I really am.
And again I'll share the story, but I am a veteran myself. I know, I know that
means a lot to me personally and to Koreans in general, overall.
Pardon me, it's my first video, I'm running all over the place. But just I'm just trying to
put in the audio so you you know what it is, oh yeah I was talking about how I was
going to carry out my channel and scene. So I would like to introduce culture like
as you can see from the name of the channel, and just wanted to share it
with the world. Well, hope you like it, again if you like the video please
subscribe and hit that like button, and yeah any comments and feedback that I
can improve upon, I'll be more than happy to listen to what you guys have got to
say. And tell me a little about yourself, and again also what you want to see.
If there's anything that you are particularly curious about, yeah, hit me up.
till then, peace!
