This is the closest I can get. I don't see the actual business name on any of the signage, but the nearby 7-11 is dead giveaway. Maybe others with more time can find the exact building.

Wow I zoomed in and see they have toilet paper proudly displayed in front of the store. People must still have memories of the era not long ago when a roll of toilet paper cost $12 for a few months.

Imagine trying to find a spot of shade in that neighborhood. Evidently oxygen is unwelcome in Gangnam, as there are no trees or even potted plants that can make the air breathable. The guys who have it best are the construction workers around the corner, who have lots of chemicals they can huff while they work.

People don't get that Korea is full of SHITPROLES. You wouldn't think that based on the Koreans you meet in the US, but in Korea they absolutely DOMINATE. Look at any street view scene in Seoul. I don't care what part of town it is, that's what it looks like up close. When they go to the restaurant they don't even eat Korean food. Look at the damn chink restos everywhere serving sweet and sour pork.

Doesn't work like that with Korean. They actually exploit this to rip off brand name products with cheap knockoffs.
Here's one example I remember seeing: Delco. The car parts. You expect GM quality.
However, when translating the sounds "del" and "co" from english, Koreans have several options. They can write it as "de ruh koh" for example, they don't have to write as "del koh." In fact "del koh" written in hangul might not tell you it's an imported word, where as the former spelling uses character combos you associate with imported words. So Koreans can make a knockoff brand of car parts called "Delkor" in english, but in Korean it's spelled the same as "Delco." They did the same thing with every goddamn popular brand name in English. Everywhere. Smurf becomes "smo puh" in Korean, then it gets re-translated back to english as Smoper so they can't get sued for "Smoper Pizza" "Smoper Chicken."
If you aren't accustomed to these horseshit games they play, you might not know how to search for "Chicago Garage" in Seoul. In fact, if you do search for "Chicago Garage" in Seoul, you'll get a different business located way the fuck across town (though I invite you to check out that neighborhood on Street View too).
Also how about insulating those fucking window frames, maybe using dual plane glass? How about some kinda seal so it's not drafty? Maybe just having windows you can actually close would make thanksgiving more enjoyable in Seoul.

My buddy there was americanized so he was always making friends with foreigners. One time he met this whole crew of Welshmen who were there to learn how to make LG flat panel displays. They said it was a horrowshow inside the factory, with workers just dropping tools on the floor when they were done. They said in Japan, the same workers would lay their tools on a neatly folded towel. Korea is the only country where I've watched cement stairwells start to slope in a matter of months. Cement can be sagging before the building is fully occupied.

Now you know why the models demanded nyuug personally drive them to the shooting location. These types of bitches don't even like riding in taxis. They didn't step out of the car until they were well indoors, at daytime.

That's not it man. It's not unheard of for a taxi driver to pull over a straight up rape the bitch in the back seat. These women are both obvious ex-whores who would never file a police complaint.

There's a tiny percentage, like 0.01% of the female population, that couldn't get enough of this dood I met from Jackson, MS. Whenever he had time off, he got on the train, and I was told that he had different bitches waiting for him at every train stop. I never confirmed, but I know he was out of town a lot, like every weekend, because I wanted to hang out with him more often than I got to.

There is extreme distolerance in that culture for women sleeping with non-korean doods. Not just the dad, but the brothers will beat a girl if they find out she fucked around. A lot of these girls get beat by the dads anyway, just because. Their brothers get beat by the teachers at school, then come home and beat up their sisters.
These chicks HATE EVERYHTING about Korean men. They are always looking for an opportunity to rebel. Secretly, of course, so they don't get beaten. Some of them are very determined. They are NOT going to miss an opportunity to experience Jackson.
Protip: be polite and don't go out in public with a korean girl. the doods will all be calling her a whore in korean but you won't hear it. She'll sit there and act like nothing is happening while every dood on the subway car will be saying it, including the subway workers. Go to Thailand if you want to hang out with your azn gf, because they don't care.

PS I learned about this in a terrible way, which is why I won't recommend white doods be sexpats there or give them tips even. This chick was nice but I never got to see her again because her brother found out and made her disappear. I have no idea what the fuck happened to her. I heard she called asking about me like six months later but didn't leave a callback number. I was happy just to know she was still alive and even capable of making phone calls. I seriously thought I might have gotten her killed because I knew how afraid she was of her brother. Jesus she was hot. Fuck Korea.

nyuug, without seeing her face, how much extra would it have cost to hire this woman to model for these videos, wearing the exact same clothes she's wearing here, no bikini? Ballpark estimate is fine.

Holy shit I just realized the video is from summer of 2021. I can't imagine what shape these women are in right now, and nyuug has no excuse for not finding out. Maybe we can start a gofundme.

lulzy name, 好吃 literally means "tastes good" or "delicious." When I was in Myeongdong I could hear every restaurant owner yappping in Chinese with a really heavy northern China accent then when they saw me as a tourist they'd say "anyaseyoo" or whatever gook shit they speak in Korea. nyuug why are Chinamen styling all over Koreans in business ownership in the capital's most prestigious areas?
Date: November 23rd, 2023 8:08 PM Author: Electric French Chef Pit
They used to have a chinatown in Seoul but it got bulldozed in the 1970s to prevent any sort of communism happening. But that also forced the Chinese businesses to disperse, so that nowadays, even if Koreans wanted to do something about these chinese they wouldn't have any way of rounding them up or destroying their businesses like Indonesia did in the late 90s.

Look at the split-level AC hoses sticking out of holes in the concrete like erect white cocks next to the windows on the upper levels. Central AC is wholly unknown in this country. If there are 40 rooms in a building, there are 40 points of failure for any heating or cooling solution. People also aren't a big fan of windows and doors that seal due to fan death, not flame. You can't complain that it's too drafty in a room.

This was just a test to see if I could still find my way around Seoul or whether it was recognizable. The biggest differences I see are more foreign cars and the parking situation is somehow worse. Everyone had iPhones and gigabit Internet but I can't tell the difference. I've thought about going back to Korea just to walk around and see if anything if got different/better, but it looks like it's still the same goddamn society of desperate miserables.
I also lost a friend to that shit culture cuz he didn't have the option of staying in the USA. A man who went back as an adult to do his service, and got STUCK there forever. I never heard of chaebong hyung till I found xo, and I still find it hard to believe such creatures exist after all the arm wrestling matches I lost over there. The most popular native Korean man I ever saw at "the club" was former UDT and let everyone know. The men fight all the time over there (women too!) but do you think nyuug can fight?

Hey OP, based off your first Google Maps link, nyuug's address says "Gangnam" but the map shows a point a few miles away from the areas with the expensive hotels and stores
So is calling this "Gangnam" like saying "I live in Manhattan" when you really live in a rented studio in the East Harlem projects?
Date: November 24th, 2023 9:58 AM Author: Electric French Chef Pit
Good q. I have not been there since that song got famous, but I recall Gangnam being just one of many places where people were doing shit it at night. When the song came out it was a fat old man making jokes and I didn't take it seriously. And when I look at pics now I see a bunch of karaoke and fried chicken places, and some real dumb shit like a "Cuban bar." What is a Cuban bar? Do they serve chicken and rice?
Then I see this shrimp-dick nyyug saying "gangnam style" in videos at the club, years after everyone stopped caring about that song. It's been maybe 10 years since I heard that song but it probably hasn't been 10 minutes since nyuug last used that phrase. It would be like telling someone to "just beat it" in 1993.

I'd assume a Cuban bar features rum, mojitos, and maybe cigars. Sounds like a better time than studiogook shouting "we fucking outchea son" "bottles on fucking bottles son" "unlimited fucking bottles son" at the top of his lungs in a club holding a bottle of $80 champagne all night by himself while other people party and dance together.

Yeah, lemme tell you about the quality of rum and tequila you find in Korea, once the nausea passes. Nothing beats a mojito made by someone who's never tasted one. All people inside will still be Korean too, so even if you're sippin patron so what?

Good point, I saw Bud Ice being sold for $9 in a bar in Korea once ljl. Not an expert on Korea (probably still know more than studiogook) but they should stick to soju and their own drinking culture but can't fault the hustle of selling beer for homeless people as a fancy import
Date: November 24th, 2023 3:29 PM Author: Electric French Chef Pit
Yep. A good rule of thumb is that any product of the Americas, like any rum or tequila or American brand name product, is going to be shitty and overpriced there. People know what shitty scotch and cognac taste like, but they don't know tequila is supposed to be yellow.

I don't pay attention to macroeconomic indicators in these countries because the terrain is always shifting. The fist time I was in Korea the currency lost half its value in December of that year. After seeing what Korea looked like that month, I don't give a fuck how rich they are on paper. You can make toilet paper unaffordable there with a few well placed FOREX trades.
Korea is fundamentally a nation of peasants who were heavily propped up by Uncle Sam for 50 years until they could pull it together. They are still hooked on surplus foods we sent them during the war. They still eat spam, like Hawaiians. I saw a couple on a date order a bowl of canned green giant corn, which was opened up and put in a bowl in the center of the table, which they then shared. They looked like a cute, loving couple sharing a bowl of room temperature canned corn on a date.

It's nothing like Thailand. Thais are all over the map in terms of wealth and personalities, and many are fully westernized. The sheer volume of whites coming through Thailand means people are used to seeing them, and no one stares at you like they do in Korea. Packs of kids don't follow you down the street while shouting the names of American sports and entertainment figures in Thailand, because you're not the first white person they've seen. These Korean models nyuug hires have never been in the room with a white man and would not know what to do if they met one.

nyuug made a 2-hour youtube video introducing Michael Jordan to Korean audiences, "for those of you who don't know," yet that was one of the names I heard most frequently from those kids. Some kids could only say "Jordan," they didn't even know his first name I guess, but we knew what they meant. The icon is on sneakers that cost $300, and nyuug filmed his video in a shop called "Chicago Garage" with the Bulls logo on the window.

Here's another way of looking at it: Koreans are the people who come to your country and settle down in your neighborhood. That's their whole shtick. The reverse is NOT supposed to happen. There are large Korean communities in Poland, Mexico, you name it, but no one expects anyone from those countries to get on a plane to Korea.

I suspect everyone internalizes the notion of it being the middle kingdom on some level. Its national identity seems to presume it sits at the center of world affairs. I haven't really spent time there, but I got more attention from locals in Korea than anywhere else I've ever been, no question.

Koreans are the only group too retarded to read hanja so they had to invent a whole new alphabet of basic circles and squares for their low IQ farmers to be able to read and write. Japan, China, HK/SG all still use Chinese characters. SE Asia is perhaps actually more retarded than Korea, really low IQ and lazy jungle monkeys

taxis won't even take you anywhere that's not totally safe 24/7. They'll just say no. 1/10 Korean taxis is operated by a serial rapist. Mexico had an Uber ripoff with a SOS button years before Uber introduced that feature, and they did more thorough background checks than Uber at that time, so no one was using Uber.

I'm sure Polanco has some places no mortal can afford, and I'm sure $60k doesn't get you a palace in Roma, but it gets you a place to retire and disappear if you ever want to go full FTGE. Air pollution is the only negative, along with the disturbing lack of African descendants of slaves. Also nobody speaks English. Zero. You gotta speak Spanish or die.
They are heading north, so that implies that he's taking her home at the end of the day. Looks like she had a "be home by sundown" rule, and took off her makeup and undid her hair put her street clothes on *after* the shoot so as not to attract attention. I wonder if she asked to be dropped off at the train station so the neighbors wouldn't see her step out of that car and get the wrong(-ish) idea.
EDIT no wonder I couldn't find the other chick's drop-off. The in-car videos are not in chronological order. The in-car footage at the end of video with the red undies chick was taken right as they left the shoot, and the footage at the beginning of the video was taken *later* as they crossed the bridge. Not sure if we see him north of the bridge yet.
the lulziest part of nsam's ape detective phase was just how utterly wrong he was - he was relying on outdated maps and even pretended to know korean LMAO
he basically spent 1 week looking at random places he thought i was at when all he needed to do is make a simple phone call to the detailing shop - obviously he doesnt speak korean and isnt capable of doing as such
