00:00From Manila, to Korea, thank you for joining us.
00:27Chill ride Kamuna with a view of Donsan Island.
00:31Here in the never before seen province, on Philippine TV.
00:36But the fun is not yet over.
00:40We still have good vibes from here in Jeollanam-do, South Korea.
00:45For part 2 of our 13th anniversary special, our food trip and gala is still going on.
00:54Come to Jeollanam-do!
00:57Yeosu is full of romance!
01:01Good news!
01:13And now, we have Filipino pride.
01:20I think I know you.
01:22It's like all of us are dead.
01:29They shouldn't be afraid to eat.
01:34We are joined by our morning sunshine and actress, Shaira Diaz,
01:40to bring inspiration and good vibes.
01:46Guys, this is what Ms. Vicky does.
01:48Vicky?
01:51Good news with Smiley!
01:54I love you!
02:04In part 2 of Good News Goes to Korea,
02:07Happy 30th Anniversary, Good News!
02:10Good News!
02:16The good thing about the Filipinos is that South Korea is now here.
02:20The Filipino members of UNICEF, the newest K-pop group, are here to prove it.
02:27Let's not leave yet.
02:29Our very own Running Man Philippines is also present in South Korea
02:33for their season 2 this May.
02:36Shaira is also with them.
02:39But wait, not only in K-pop and variety shows,
02:43Filipinos get to know each other.
02:45Oh my, do you also feel shy watching K-dramas?
02:49You're not alone.
02:52But will you believe me if I tell you that we have the same heart
02:57that appeared in more than 100 K-dramas.
03:04Meet Joyce,
03:05the 32-year-old Sabwanang all the way from South Korea.
03:11How did you get into being an extra in K-dramas?
03:16I started in the Philippines because I did events there.
03:20When I came here, I also did events actually.
03:24One of the directors told me to try on-cam.
03:29We're here again for the shoot.
03:32But did you know that it wasn't easy for Joyce?
03:36Instead of appearing as the lead in the roles,
03:39My first audition was for Filipino roles.
03:43Were you accepted?
03:45No.
03:47They told me to try the Korean role.
03:51Why did they suggest that?
03:53Maybe because of my features.
03:57What's your favorite role?
03:59My favorite is the student.
04:00Why?
04:01Their uniform is beautiful.
04:02So you feel like a student?
04:04Yes.
04:05Also, there are only a few people who can wear uniforms.
04:08Because of my age.
04:10Yes.
04:11And the size is small.
04:15One of the most popular K-dramas is the zombie series,
04:19All of Us Are Dead.
04:21And what caught the attention of the netizens
04:24is that instead of the bag on the back,
04:27the bag on the front is very Filipino.
04:30I remember that backpack.
04:31That's where I met you.
04:32Because in the scene,
04:33everyone is wearing a backpack.
04:35Of course on the back,
04:36but you're wearing a backpack on the front.
04:37Yes.
04:38Why? Because it's Filipino style?
04:40It's okay.
04:41But it was hot that time,
04:42so I had to wear a backpack.
04:44Okay, okay.
04:45Don't be jealous!
04:46Because almost 90% of Korean artists
04:50are already in the shoot.
04:52Today's favorite artist is
04:54Kim Sooyeon of the K-drama series,
04:57Queen of Tears.
04:59What time is it?
05:008.43.
05:01But according to Joyce,
05:03Koreans are strict when it comes to call time.
05:06Filipino time is prohibited.
05:08But Joyce went to Korea in 2013
05:12not really to act,
05:14but to study her master's degree
05:17in business administration
05:19at Sookmyung Women's University
05:21as a scholar.
05:23This is just extra, right?
05:25This is not your main job.
05:27I'm working as a global sales
05:30and marketing manager
05:31in an IT company,
05:33cyber security company.
05:34How do you manage both?
05:36I also tell the agency,
05:37because I have an acting agency here in Korea.
05:39So I also tell them that
05:41my free time is weekend or holidays.
05:44With her hard work,
05:46even her family
05:47is able to travel to South Korea.
05:50Awesome!
05:51But if one day she has a dream
05:54that hasn't come true,
05:56maybe she will play the role of a Filipino
06:00who speaks Filipino on set.
06:03And because of that,
06:04your wish is our command.
06:07It's time to act with Shaira.
06:13Did you like the scene?
06:15You ruined the scene.
06:17You stole it.
06:18You're nothing.
06:20Cut.
06:22But Shaira won't give up.
06:26She will make it up in Korean style.
06:35You're really something, Shaira.
06:37Let's have a sample of your Korean acting.
06:40Oh no, my hair.
06:43Moni, my hair.
06:46Oh no, my hair.
06:51That's how it is.
06:54Your K-drama fans will be really hyped
06:57because Jonam South Korea
06:59has a must-visit place for K-drama fans.
07:03Just like here,
07:05at Suncheon Filming Location,
07:07which is a big compound.
07:11It was built in 2006,
07:13not for living,
07:15but to be a set for different Korean dramas.
07:19Like Pachinko,
07:26Baker King,
07:32and Gangnam 1970.
07:37The houses here
07:39are inspired by the 60s and 80s look of the Korean village.
07:43There's a hospital,
07:49bakery,
07:53and karaoke hub.
07:57There's even a classic Korean game here.
08:00Shaira and Joyce didn't miss it.
08:04This is the game from the famous Squid Game.
08:08Right, Joyce?
08:09Yes.
08:10It's called...
08:11Takjitsigi.
08:13One more time.
08:14Takjitsigi.
08:16If you flip, you win.
08:18If you don't flip, you lose.
08:34Wait, I saw something big.
08:36I don't know what it is.
08:38Ready? 1, 2, 3.
08:41Shaira, you can do it.
08:43You'll hit it too.
08:49I can't hit it.
08:51One more time.
08:58K-drama experience and playing the Korean game,
09:02achieved.
09:03So, Joyce,
09:04we'll be waiting for you in the next episode.
09:09I'm the only one there.
09:10Shaira and I were lucky
09:12because we were able to see the cherry blossoms here in Jonan.
09:18I love cherry blossoms.
09:20And the best spot to enjoy them,
09:23is up here.
09:25Yosung Maritime Cable Cars
09:28is the first cable car in South Korea.
09:32Yosung Maritime Cable Cars is the first cable car in South Korea.
09:38Do we know that?
09:40It's our first time here in Jonan.
09:42The view is beautiful.
09:44We can see the cherry blossoms.
09:46Wow, this Yosung Cable Car is beautiful.
09:50You can see the whole Yosung.
09:53And you can see the cherry blossoms.
09:55Actually, the cherry blossoms are only for 2 weeks.
09:58Then, the flowers will shed.
10:01That's why we were so lucky.
10:04It's beautiful.
10:05And what's more beautiful here,
10:07the so-called crystal cabin,
10:09because you can see the glass roof.
10:12That's why it's so beautiful.
10:13It's a pity for those who are afraid of heights.
10:18It's beautiful.
10:19Look at the cherry blossoms below us.
10:22It's beautiful.
10:23There are 50 cable cars that go around here.
10:27There are 10 so-called crystal cabins.
10:30From here,
10:31you can see the 360-degree view of Dolsan Island Spring Edition.
10:37It's a beautiful view.
10:40It's the 7th largest island in Korea.
10:44It's different when it's daytime.
10:46You can see the whole skyline.
10:48At night, it's all light.
10:51That's right.
10:53This is Dolsan Island.
10:55This is its destination.
10:57It takes about 5 minutes to get there.
11:01After the one-way trip,
11:04you have to turn around before going back.
11:07What is this?
11:09It's a candy.
11:16It's delicious.
11:17It's like Bibingka.
11:28Let's go here.
11:29What's there?
11:30Picture.
11:32Photo studio.
11:46Our beauty is ready for picture-taking.
11:50Strike a pose.
11:54Good news.
11:55Okay, apply to the picture.
11:57You're shy, right?
12:05I think I went too far in editing.
12:08Sorry, Shaira.
12:14Guys, this is what Ms. Vicky did.
12:18Good news with smiley.
12:22How cute!
12:24Okay, we're going back to where we came from.
12:28Bye-bye Dolsan Island.
12:30Let's go!
12:31Round 2!
12:34We're going back.
12:42It's like you're flying in the air while riding a cable car.
12:46That's why Shaira is so shy.
12:50Let's go.
12:52Let's go here.
12:55Sorry, sorry.
12:56It's delicious.
12:58I'm jealous of you.
13:00Sorry, sorry.
13:01Are you going to watch K-drama?
13:03Yes, because there's a new upload of K-drama.
13:08If you want to come to Korea but to work,
13:11maybe this is your chance.
13:14Because of the record low 0.7 birth rate
13:17that has been recorded in Korea,
13:19where they are weak in their work and household chores,
13:23Korea announced the opening of doors
13:26for foreign domestic helpers from Southeast Asia.
13:31And the good news is,
13:32a language learning center here in the Philippines
13:35can help you for free.
13:38We teach Korean language and culture to students.
13:44They are always prepared for their exams.
13:49Laira and Jessica are currently enrolled here.
13:52We're already in the advanced language lesson.
13:55We're already learning sentences, grammar.
13:58We're still learning how to speak Korean.
14:00Because this is a legal process for us,
14:04the employees of the company.
14:06This is part of the employment permit system
14:09of South Korea for those who want to work for them.
14:15Did you know that aside from the seafood and natural beauty of Jeollanam-do,
14:19another thing they take care of here
14:21is the rich history and culture of South Korea.
14:27Hello, Kapuso!
14:28We're here at Naganoksong Village.
14:35In this folk village,
14:37the ancient Koreans fought against the Japanese.
14:45This is one of the places that was preserved by the country.
14:51And did you know that the famous K-drama,
14:54Jewel in the Palace, was also filmed here?
14:57In this long-established attraction,
14:59you will find yourself in a historical K-drama.
15:03Let's go back to the life of the Koreans in the old days.
15:14This is so beautiful!
15:19Guys, look! There's a gull!
15:23And this is called Umacha.
15:26Umacha.
15:27Great!
15:29So this is where they ride.
15:34Umacha.
15:39Okay, let's go!
15:43The good news is that almost all of the houses here
15:47are still in their original form and design.
15:50That's why in 2011,
15:52this was one of the UNESCO World Heritage Sites.
15:57That's why when you watch K-dramas,
16:01you'll realize that this village really exists.
16:09This is Shaira!
16:10She's from Babakasakalipa,
16:12where you can see the ultimate K-pop bias.
16:17Hello!
16:18Is Jungkook here?
16:20Is there a gull?
16:21Charm.
16:22No, guys, I was just looking around.
16:25Because there's really something left.
16:27This is the address.
16:28This is their address.
16:30And this is the name of the residents.
16:34Some of the spots here show the traditional way of life of the people back then.
16:40Like this.
16:46Guess where I am, guys!
16:50So this is their washroom.
16:52This is where they wash.
16:54And this is their pool.
16:56As you can see,
16:57let's try drinking from here.
17:00They said that this is the part where you can drink.
17:03Those who go in there can go out.
17:06Let's try.
17:08Wow, it's cold!
17:09Oh my gosh!
17:15Wow, it's refreshing.
17:18Just a few more seconds.
17:20OMG!
17:23This is it, guys!
17:25This is it.
17:26This is the house that was used in Jewel in the Palace by Dae Jang Goom.
17:32This is our house.
17:34Oh my gosh!
17:35Who would have thought that I would be able to come here?
17:38And of course, this is for you, K-drama lovers.
17:43Wow, it's so beautiful.
17:45It's so beautiful, look!
17:47You know, I was so inspired by the story of Jewel in the Palace.
17:51Because they fought for their love.
17:54That's why I will fight for my boyfriend's love.
17:58Engage?
17:59What's engage?
18:05I'm so happy with the feeling.
18:08For sure, K-drama fans,
18:10this is also where they want to go.
18:12The drama sets.
18:15So, when they fight,
18:17how do they address the royal family?
18:19For example, kings are like this.
18:20Queen.
18:21Queen.
18:27Like that?
18:29After tasting the rich culture of Jewel in the Palace,
18:34Shaira is eager to taste the taste of Korea.
18:39Here we go again.
18:43We're going to eat again.
18:45And when you saw the Korean character earlier,
18:47what you mean is,
18:48I really understood him.
18:50He said, enjoy the taste and smell.
18:53Because what we're going to eat now is shabu-shabu,
18:57but Korean style.
19:00This is a different shabu-shabu experience.
19:03I think you need a tutorial, Shaira.
19:06Wol-lang-sam shabu-shabu.
19:09Oh, rice paper.
19:11Guys, it's so cool.
19:13Hey, it's so cool.
19:15It's like a hand.
19:16But it's rice paper, guys.
19:18The rice paper is soaked for 5 seconds in warm water,
19:24then it's put on a plate.
19:26Bean sprout, okay.
19:28No, no, no, cucumber.
19:29I don't like cucumber.
19:30Okay, carrot.
19:31Okay.
19:37Number two.
19:38Okay.
19:40Alright.
19:41And then.
19:43It's so fun to eat.
19:44A lot is happening.
19:45There's also sauce, of course.
19:49And then, fold.
19:50Oh, it's softened.
19:53Guys, it's softened.
19:56Look, it's softened.
20:05Guys, guys, this is it.
20:07The money shot.
20:13It's delicious.
20:15It's delicious.
20:17It's full of vegetables.
20:19If you don't eat vegetables, you'll lose.
20:22But it's delicious.
20:24In fairness.
20:25First time.
20:26This is my first time to try this.
20:28And what she discovered.
20:30Okay, guys.
20:31This is what we did.
20:32This is called sam.
20:34This is sam.
20:35Okay.
20:36Because we added different vegetables.
20:38So, because we added, this is what we call sam.
20:42What?
20:43Okay.
20:46This is my favorite.
20:47Thank you.
20:59This is what girls like.
21:01Ma'am said that if we eat this, we'll be beautiful.
21:05What are you eating?
21:08This is famous because it has a lot of health benefits.
21:12You're healthy?
21:13You enjoyed it?
21:14The beef is delicious.
21:18Good.
21:19So good.
21:21Even if there's no sauce, it's delicious.
21:26In the middle of the night.
21:30We won't be able to sleep well.
21:33Because here in Jonang, a province that is considered to have a nightlife.
21:45One of the best spots of Latving Cafe.
21:51This colorful Romantic Pocha Street.
21:56If you're looking for a place to stay, you can do a night stroll here in Romantic Pocha Street.
22:01Where you'll find a lot of parties.
22:05Let's go.
22:06The line of people who are looking for a place to stay is very long.
22:11Let's go.
22:13The line of people who are looking for a place to stay is a favorite destination for Koreans.
22:17After a whole day of work.
22:21But wait, that's just the intro.
22:23Because the main location of Romantic Pocha Street is not on the main road.
22:29It's under a bridge.
22:32This is it.
22:35These are the 18 heart bars under the Yeosu Geobukcheon Bridge.
22:45Look at how lively it is.
22:47With beautiful lights.
22:53The name of the place came from the word Pocha.
22:56Which means outdoor food and drink stall.
23:01That's what Shaira and I are going to visit for today's video.
23:05Imagine, Shaira, it's almost midnight.
23:07But the action here is lively.
23:09Romantic Pocha Street.
23:12That's why it's called Romantic Pocha Street.
23:15It's because this is where couples go.
23:18To date.
23:19Yes.
23:23Wait, let's ask the people who do food trips here.
23:27What nationality?
23:28Beautiful.
23:30Beautiful.
23:33Is that octopus or crab?
23:36That's ramyeon.
23:38Spicy?
23:40That's what Korean food looks like here.
23:43Orange, right?
23:44It looks really spicy.
23:46Thank you.
23:50Next, the couples date.
23:54If I try, what's the best?
23:56That one?
23:57Nice?
23:58Nice.
23:59Okay.
24:00Maybe I try that.
24:01You're a couple?
24:02Couple?
24:03Ah, sweet.
24:04Sweet.
24:06It's romantic.
24:07Enjoy your date.
24:08It's like we're going to ruin their date.
24:10Okay, thank you.
24:15While looking for food by the sea,
24:18while looking for food by the sea,
24:23you can also take pictures at Hamel Lighthouse.
24:27It was named after the 17th century Dutch explorer, Hendrik Hamel.
24:37And back to our food trip.
24:38What's different about this next spot?
24:42It's moving.
24:43Wow, it's still moving.
24:49Please try.
24:50Is it good? Nice?
24:56Oh, I thought I would only taste raw crabs here in Jonah.
25:03But now, I think I'm going to taste not only raw, but also alive.
25:10And it's still moving.
25:19Even though I don't eat raw,
25:23because the province of Jonah provides fresh seafood,
25:28I know that I need to try this.
25:39It's still moving.
25:44Oh, God.
25:46Thank you.
25:48It's soft.
25:49It's moving.
25:51But when you bite it, it doesn't move anymore.
25:54Of course.
25:57Thank you very much.
26:00Of course, I won't allow Shaira to not try this.
26:05It's like we're...
26:06Oh, my God.
26:11Shaira, even if you look at it, you can't escape it.
26:19Can you do this?
26:20One, two, three, go.
26:23You can do it.
26:24Just push it.
26:35It's sticking.
26:37It's sticking.
26:38Sorry, sorry.
26:40It's sticking.
26:42It's okay, Shaira.
26:45Thank you, Shaira.
26:46I'll do this again.
26:48It's really moving.
26:51To the 13th anniversary of Good News.
26:54Cheers.
26:55For Good News.
26:56Look.
27:04Just bite it so it won't move anymore.
27:08Okay.
27:11See? Basic live octopus eating challenge.
27:18That's the experience we won't forget here.
27:29Actually, I've only been here for 2 or 3 days in Jollanam-do, South Korea.
27:33But there are so many things you can do here.
27:36The first thing that struck me was the food.
27:38There are so many varieties.
27:40We Filipinos are fond of food, right?
27:42But here in South Korea, they're really over the top.
27:45Every bus stop, they have food stalls.
27:48But I'm fond of seafood.
27:50So the seafood variety here is really wow.
27:52There are so many things that you can't experience in other countries.
27:57The people, they really like the Filipinos.
28:01They're very friendly.
28:02Very outgoing.
28:03The charm of the place, the kindness of the people to the Filipinos.
28:08Very accommodating.
28:09And they're really proud of their culture.
28:12And the food is really delicious.
28:14I feel like I've been here for 2 days.
28:16I need to come back here again.
28:20All the happiness
28:24and memorable experiences
28:27are really in the core memories.
