A big W for Jace, but an even bigger W for Sungwon. Any time a young relative is like 'hey, can you please tell my friends we're related?' and not 'hey, please don't let anyone know we're related', you know you're doin good.
Anticipating the follow-up videos "NEVER ASK ME FOR PROOF AGAIN" and "NEVER ASK ME FOR PROOF AGAIN: IN-LAWS EDITION" where SungWon now has to go through every niece and nephew in his extended family verifying to their friends that they are indeed related.
Hundreds of J named kids are gonna try to play the long game and change their nickname to Jayce. That way they can bring this up casually in 6 months as proof they're related.
this is adorable and hilarious. it's like saying your dad works at nintendo and nobody believes you, and then he shows up in the next direct and goes "special thanks to my kid [name]"
This reminds me of the story where a kid's dad worked for Wrigley's (the gum company) and the kids at school called him Doublemint Dave. Of course he was pretty cool and gave out free gum :'y
I sincerely hope that Sung-won really does have a cousin who really did have this conversation with his friends, but that cousin's name is Steven, and this video was recorded purely to troll Steven. Who started watching, thinking, "yes, here it is, the proof!" only to hear the fatal words "this is for you Jayce!" and feel the earth drop away from under him as he asks, "who is Jayce??"
For a brief moment as I read this, I thought of "Steven" as in "Steven He", which would make it even emotionally damaging. I dunno why, though; they're not even the same nationality.
@Bladist1 You got that mixed up. They are the same nationality as they both live in the USA making their nationality American. You are thinking of race which is different.
@flyingturret208thecannon5 “Asian” isn’t a race. They are different races. Being asian doesn’t make someone part of the same race. Their nationality is the same, being American.
@Cool Cucumber I so wish I were… That dude is a legend! My dad’s name is Chris Brown, though not _that_ Chris Brown. That one’s probably for the better!
Man this shit is so wholesome. Good to know that Sungwon isn’t one of those guys that doesn’t think so highly of themselves acting like they are above simple shit like this to do for kids in their family. IDK I just don’t see any other internet celebs doing this
Man when your nephew's friends not only know who you are, but also think you're cool enough he'd lie about being related to you, you know you're doing something right.
This video is doing well. He should do this for a bunch of names, like those keychains at a gift shop. Make thousands of kids days. "Trevor, this is for you Trevor"
best 삼촌 (I would instinctively say uncle in Korean since I call my first cousins aunt/cousin depending on their age idk) ever!! good for Jayce and I hope he enjoys this flex on his friends 😂
Awww…you’re an amazing uncle, Sungwon. And the fact that Jayce had to show this video to his friends means you’ve also made it as a somebody in the world!
Repent to Jesus Christ “Dear friend, do not imitate what is evil but what is good. Anyone who does what is good is from God. Anyone who does what is evil has not seen God.” 3 John 1:11 NIV h
If Jayce was a teenager or something that would be a very funny joke, but from his tone I think Jayce is way younger than that (probably still in the single digits), so a joke like that was likely to inadvertently hurt him.
This is as adorable as when a rock artist I follow (Des Rocs) recently had a crowd at a concert sing happy birthday with him for his nephew Noah, who was up in the balcony 💗
I mean even discounting a prolific VA and BRvid career, he’s about to be in an proper, bug budget Hollywood movie so I’d say he definitely qualifies. Though let’s be real, the kids at school probably care way more that he did voices on Pokémon than they do about the Blackberry movie lol. They may not even know what a Blackberry was 😂
OMG nobody knows what first cousin once removed is anymore, I'm so happy that you keep this terminology alive. (And it's wholesome and sweet to see you make a video for your relative)
@LVN Technically cousin, but his family uses the term uncle. My family only uses uncle for our parent's siblings and our grandparents siblings, etc. Anything else distant is cousin. Like said great aunt's kids. Is a cousin.
Now like, my first cousin's kids would be my second cousins, and my great aunt/uncle's kids would be my parent's cousin and my first cousin once removed, and their kids I think are second cousins once removed? And my great-great aunts kids are cousins twice removed, but this distinction to me is a load of crap. It all ends in cousin.
@AuraMaster Just letting you know, it's spam bot stuff to try and get you to click their sketchy links, I'm pretty sure. Just report them and move on. I doubt anyone is reading their replies. It's similar to those comments that say something like "this is the clip you're looking for" and give a link. Don't click them and ignore or report.
I have never seen a video like this before even though I feel like this would be a common occurrence. Such a huge win for Jayce hahaha You go, kid! You asked and it was answered!
I feel like it's because if you're trying to brag about how you're related to a celebrity than that's because that celebrity is very important. If a celebrity is important they usually don't want to have a video similar to this one on their social media page since it would obviously be targeted to a very small group of people and not their fanbase/followers. Probably also cause it's easier to call that celebrity if you really are related to them
yeah because we're so used to youtube being used for super optimized formal content but this is the kind of thing you would post on like a personal youtube channel (the equivalent nowadays would be a personal instagram probably)! love how it feels like this is for a small circle of family and friends despite prozd having such a large following in the era of formal BRvid content
@AlexJustAlex YT yeah, so many have too many managers, image consultants, etc that think such a video somehow lessens a star's shine despite it making them seem cool and relatable. It's the "superstar being different from normies" BS thing, like why MTV Cribs never showed restrooms. Hell, I wonder how many of the homes shown were rented and decorated just for the show.
So now every kid named Jayce can use this video as proof that he is related with you! What a great world you have a created for the people named Jayce.
