            Chapters

            • 00:00 - 02:00: Introduction and Guest Background Introduction of the podcast and the guest, Mr. A, who is frequently mentioned in the Pick Up Korea eBook for his remarkable achievements and accountability.
            • 02:00 - 04:00: Mindset and Responsibility in Success This chapter explores the theme of 'Mindset and Responsibility in Success'. It uses the metaphor of parenting to discuss how individuals often make excuses for their own behaviors. The comparison is made between most people, who act like lenient parents making constant excuses for a child's misbehavior, and a more disciplined approach. The ideal is to be like a stern parent who takes charge and resolves issues effectively. The narrative suggests that holding oneself to a higher standard, without excuses, is crucial for success.
            • 04:00 - 06:00: Fashion Industry Insights The chapter discusses the importance of a mindset that takes personal responsibility rather than blaming others or situations for failures. This mindset is crucial for success and progress in various aspects of life, including personal and professional relationships. The chapter also touches upon the fashion industry, as the speaker has experience working in China, Korea, and other regions. Insights from his time in the fashion industry are shared, likely providing a unique perspective on the topic.
            • 06:00 - 09:00: Common Fashion Mistakes This chapter discusses common fashion mistakes that individuals often make, particularly focusing on the challenges of finding fitting clothing and dressing uniquely. It highlights the efforts of a person who has been conducting style programs in Korea. These programs aim to teach men how to shop effectively, dress presentably, and develop a unique sense of style that suits them personally.
            • 09:00 - 11:00: Fashion and Lifestyle in Korea The chapter features an interview with a personal stylist, referred to as Mr. A, who is described as a myth, legend, and mad scientist. The chapter begins with a brief introduction of Mr. A's arrival and emphasizes the special nature of this guest. The primary focus of the discussion is on topics of interest to the audience, although specific details of these topics are not provided in the transcript.
            • 11:00 - 14:00: Importance of Fashion in Social Perception The chapter discusses the importance of fashion in social perception, particularly focusing on experiences in Korea. It highlights the noticeable difference in fashion sense between locals and foreigners, specifically English teachers, who often dress poorly. This reflects on social perceptions and cultural integration challenges faced by foreigners in Korea.
            • 14:00 - 19:00: Mindset and Skills for Personal Improvement The chapter discusses the common fashion mistakes observed among individuals who study or work in Korea. It highlights the term 'fashion terrorist,' a colloquial expression used to describe such fashion faux pas. The narrative points out several recurring issues that contribute to poor dressing styles, often noticeable compared to the local Korean fashion sensibilities.
            • 19:00 - 23:00: Fashion Consulting Experiences This chapter discusses the fashion styles seen in urban environments, focusing on individuals who have moved from small towns to big cities. The narrator humorously critiques the 'obvious' and unrefined fashion choices of individuals seen sporting casual and outdated attire, such as backpacks, t-shirts, and New Balance shoes. The contrast between small-town fashion norms and those in the 'big city' is emphasized, highlighting how some individuals fail to adapt their style to the new, more fashion-conscious environment.
            • 23:00 - 27:00: Fashion Consulting Success Stories The chapter explores the challenges and perceptions faced by individuals attempting to make their mark in fashion consulting, particularly those who may be initially dismissed or stereotyped, such as English teachers transitioning into fashion. Despite standing out or being underestimated, some individuals manage to succeed and gain recognition for their efforts and contributions to the field. The narrative may also delve into the social dynamics and motivations driving these individuals to pursue their goals, such as aspirations for career advancement or personal relationships.
            • 27:00 - 31:00: Personal Growth and Social Skills The chapter 'Personal Growth and Social Skills' discusses the challenges and stereotypes faced by individuals, particularly Asian women, in social interactions. It highlights the lack of genuine understanding and connection between people, as some view others merely through stereotypical lenses, such as seeing them as a 'type' rather than individuals with their own preferences and thoughts. The narrative points out the superficial nature of such interactions, where some Asian women are objectified and regarded as mere conquests by those who view themselves as desirable or superior without truly knowing the women they are interested in. As a result, these women don't think about or regard the perpetrators in any significant manner, which is a reflection on the importance of personal growth to overcome such shallow social skills.
            • 31:00 - 34:00: Conclusion and Future Plans The final chapter reflects on personal experiences, particularly focusing on instances that stood out when certain behaviors and attitudes were noticed, especially in social situations involving conversations about men. The author recounts a recurring pattern where jokes and remarks about certain types of men are made behind their backs without them realizing. It becomes apparent more starkly, however, when these men attempt to introduce themselves or engage, only to be ridiculed. This chapter encapsulates the subtle social dynamics and judgments encountered and closes with thoughts geared towards future reflection and understanding of these patterns.

            • 00:00 - 00:30 welcome to the pick up korea podcast and today i have a very special guest who goes by the name mr a and uh if you've read the pick up korea ebook you'll recognize him in there because he's mentioned several times and he's somebody who i've seen get amazing results and you know do things that most people would never even imagine and he is also somebody who always holds himself accountable
            • 00:30 - 01:00 never makes excuses and really holds himself to a higher standard whereas with most people we kind of talk about how you know if you parent yourself like a child most people kind of parent themselves you know if they're parenting a kid who's running all over the room and [ __ ] everywhere and out of control but the parents just kind of making excuses day and day again he is sort of like the stern parent who always takes care of the situation make sure the situation solved and
            • 01:00 - 01:30 if something goes wrong holds himself responsible for it and doesn't look to someone else or the situation to make an excuse so how we go over how this kind of mindset is really what you need to be successful and to really progress in life in general but also in dating and other areas we also go over some fashion stuff because he has been working in this industry in china korea and some other places
            • 01:30 - 02:00 and he has been working with some guys here in korea who you know he taught them how to shop a lot of people waste money um don't know how to dress don't know how to be presentable don't know how to find fitting clothing right or dress in a way that's you know makes them look better and unique to them and so he's been kind of doing these style sort of fashion programs with guys
            • 02:00 - 02:30 as a personal stylist and so we get into that a little bit but uh yeah with no further ado here's mr a then today i have a special guest by the uh special special very special came in a special bus all the way here uh a man by the name of mr a man myth the legend the mad scientist and figure today we'll uh go over a few topics uh a lot of people interested in hearing
            • 02:30 - 03:00 about fashion these days and you know other experiences of yours and whatnot so yeah maybe uh give yourself introduce yourself a little here um i think that's good enough introduction not more needs to be said what is it really so uh okay why not just uh get into it all right cool so um it's definitely one thing i remember when i first got to korea one thing that you always noticed is just how poorly dressed like foreigners that come here a lot of them come here to teach english
            • 03:00 - 03:30 nowadays study or work at other jobs and whatnot but you just notice that wow like the majority of them are just poorly dressed even compared to like an average korean person right so like uh what are what are the biggest fashion terrorist as they say in korean fashion for paws yeah faux pas exactly english in korea they say fashion terrorist you know well there's a few things just straight up that you typically see a bunch of people do consistently which is uh you'll see
            • 03:30 - 04:00 the dudes walking around backpacks maybe the uh the t-shirt t-shirt homies typically a lot of new balance shoes uh baggy jeans it's just it's obvious [ __ ] fashion they've brought from wherever they're from and maybe it's uh okay in the podunk city of uh you know michigan or wichita wherever the [ __ ] they're from but then they come out here to big city life and how things are different and they don't they don't adjust
            • 04:00 - 04:30 straight up but then they just like they're so easily spotted and uh i mean it's just they stand out they stick out like a sore thumb but uh it really wouldn't matter to them or it doesn't matter to other people because they're not taken seriously in any way just oh here's another english teacher that's what you get viewed as um and then these other dudes that are trying to do something with their lives or meet girls that are
            • 04:30 - 05:00 out here or you know they're pervs they're into uh asian chicks only which we get so many of those uh and then they can't make it happen and it's kind of like yeah [ __ ] obviously you don't know these girls whatsoever you don't know [ __ ] about them you don't know anything of what they are looking for or what they think of you the main thing is they don't [ __ ] think of you you're just another [ __ ] english teacher to them um so i mean you kind of get viewed that way
            • 05:00 - 05:30 but the times that really this kind of [ __ ] stuck out stuck out to me and i noticed it more was when i heard all these things from chicks and all these kind of like jokes about these kinds of dudes kind of behind their back they usually don't ever notice them or talk to them or anything like that but when when a guy does come up and try to introduce himself or say whatever and just laughed at you know just not
            • 05:30 - 06:00 taken seriously in any way the best you can get is she's nice to you she's nice to you for a few seconds but again just not even taking you serious and i think the bigger part of it is most of these dudes have no [ __ ] idea how important the fashion world and industry is out here in korea and in other major cities of asia and it's such a huge part of lifestyle out here and how people view
            • 06:00 - 06:30 themselves of this is what makes me me it's taken so seriously but then these guys don't take it seriously whatsoever and don't know [ __ ] about it i i don't know it's uh it's something that i don't really have to ever bring up because the people that i know and that i hang out with have a decent idea of what fashion sense is and don't look like a [ __ ] [ __ ] and uh the other people that i see around that are obviously backwards
            • 06:30 - 07:00 in the way that they think about this [ __ ] i don't know i don't hang out with them i'm not connected with them and it doesn't come down to fashion it's just they have no sense in so many areas so obviously their fashion is affected too that's why they remain in their worlds and the worlds of [ __ ] jesus christ reality hotter better more attractive people and people that make more money and are
            • 07:00 - 07:30 more successful generally have this sense and not just about fashion about many other aspects so these two worlds are night and day difference okay good good so clearly how you dress and how you present yourself you put out an image or people are going to perceive you in a certain way right like like you were saying like a lot of them they dress the same way this weird sort of ill-fitting clothing this sort of out-of-place look right looks like they got off the plane from
            • 07:30 - 08:00 who knows right like you said some podunk city or some small ass town right and uh so they are certainly viewed in a certain way right and that's uh one thing i remember when i first got here is that one thing you really notice is you know not like all the korean dudes are the best dressers or anything like that some do dress really really well but one thing you do notice is that they wear most of the time they wear stuff that's fitting actually fits and then also that they look sort of at least new kind of right like so for example if you're on a train
            • 08:00 - 08:30 you see a bunch of foreigners like the shirt looks like it's old it has like little fuzzy lint hanging off of it there's stains on it or just like the color and the print is all faded out right i mean okay that's that's like the worst of the worst examples right right i mean but there are a lot of worse than the worst examples yeah you can see that here and there and everything and what's almost the funniest is guys that are at that stage and that think oh i wanna i want to meet more girls and i want to have more dates like wow do you have any [ __ ] idea how far off
            • 08:30 - 09:00 you are there's not going to be getting there anytime soon and again it's not this uh oh your fashion is wrong and just fix this and that the fixing little fashion things is a nice little boost and a little help but in the end there's so much more that comes into sense having a [ __ ] simple sense of this is right and this is wrong and not just a fashion of so many other areas so it's kind of a the fashion [ __ ] is not something that i
            • 09:00 - 09:30 even want to sit around and talk about as a topic because it's it's so basic basic as a uh kind of as the effect of having no sense being [ __ ] stupid um not knowing what you should do or shouldn't do and obviously that is just one part of it it's going to come into all kinds of other areas a dude that has decent sense and knows how to
            • 09:30 - 10:00 interact and talk with people and and all of that then he can get away with some stupid [ __ ] fashion and some bad look think about all this ironic fashion that's come out these days how street fashion has become such a huge thing and 10 years ago that was looked at as really stupid and very [ __ ] but all these cool people do this weird different [ __ ] and then it kind of became cool so because they they knew the rules
            • 10:00 - 10:30 the basic rules and they were sick of it and then they broke the rules and they knew how to break the rules and be different anyway so on the fashion thing itself it's just like it's one piece of the the general i don't want to use this overdone term but one piece of the puzzle but it it really is and there's other things that are so
            • 10:30 - 11:00 important that you also will run into and it's like there's there's other areas to handle but uh it's just a thing that's like right in your face you can't get over it a chick will notice and it'll stand out and you'll stick out like an ass by by wearing weird [ __ ] stupid [ __ ] yeah the worst of the worst kind of scenarios like of course it's going to be harder for you and overcoming that
            • 11:00 - 11:30 with oh my my game is good oh god even if you [ __ ] talk like that no i'm i'm into pickup i've done a lot of pickups oh i'm [ __ ] christ there's dudes that have been that way this show they're they're so far behind of where they they need to get we kind of transitioned there from fashion to you know a lot of guys a lot of guys just having [ __ ] up mindsets and sort of the reason why they dress like crap or don't even really blend in at all or
            • 11:30 - 12:00 don't even try to upgrade or look better really right is because their mind is in the gutter or their mind is in the wrong place right so if they had their mind even somewhat well adjusted or attuned to reality in the local environment right and local people then it would become it would be common sense right so the fact that most guys are not in that place you know where where should they begin if they where should somebody begin if they have no sense or if they they don't know what to wear
            • 12:00 - 12:30 or they don't know what to do you know [ __ ] is such a hard topic to even talk about because it's just like it can keep going on and it's never ending and we'd have to have several hours to go over just a section of what is important and cover some of the [ __ ] that you need to break away from it's just too much [ __ ] and that's another big reason of why i don't like hanging out with guys that are into this kind of [ __ ] and
            • 12:30 - 13:00 hearing the the [ __ ] that they have they're these weird misbeliefs of how the world is and all this silly [ __ ] it's just [ __ ] gross so uh on on the ideas of on the idea of goals okay so generally if i was to ask like okay what are your goals and the person listening to this would could say something like well okay i want to meet more girls and have more lays
            • 13:00 - 13:30 and have more girlfriends and like okay wow why is that kind of [ __ ] not going to happen for you because you're really really focused on these specific results whereas those are kind of an outcome that comes with okay i've done a lot of [ __ ] to better myself and not just in the oh i gotta improve myself and focus on self-healing that kind of silly [ __ ] no but get away from these i'm focusing on these
            • 13:30 - 14:00 outcomes that are out of my [ __ ] control right now and instead okay i'm gonna work on these different things and here's here's some decent goals uh i'm gonna [ __ ] talk with girls and not be so nervous when i when i get into conversations i'm gonna not be [ __ ] nervous oh i'm i'm walking away from them too early i'm gonna lock in and [ __ ] actually have a [ __ ] conversation until it's literally finished oh i'm getting these flaky ass numbers well i'm not going to be desperate in the text back and forth
            • 14:00 - 14:30 and i'm not going to let it get to me anymore so let's let's see what kind of results that's going to bring two months down the road when i'm not awkward and uncomfortable when i talk with chicks and i'm not uh really set on getting a [ __ ] date and super desperate that she's gonna [ __ ] come out and meet me and distraught when i get the text message the next day oh i'm feeling kind of sick today oh it's raining today can't come out
            • 14:30 - 15:00 like get over that [ __ ] and obviously you start seeing it happen less but i mean this kind of [ __ ] is just so simple but majority of guys know what they need to do and they don't do it and they don't [ __ ] fix it up to the point where i see all these guys that call themselves advanced and all oh god [ __ ] freaks more cringe [ __ ] i'm advanced to this oh jesus in comparison to what
            • 15:00 - 15:30 right like just it's best to just compare yourself to yourself and say like okay i have these problems and these stupid things that i'm doing and i don't want to do that stupid [ __ ] anymore for me i don't want to i don't sit there and think about oh i'm advanced or i can make this or that i can say okay i'm comfortable with this or that happening in this amount of time and i usually get this or that result um i'm not going to tie myself down to
            • 15:30 - 16:00 it and beat myself up completely if i don't absolutely obtain that exact same result the next time i try but again if i don't i can say okay i [ __ ] up where what was probably wrong that i did that was stupid and that i can try not to do again next time or what are the consistent mistakes she was she was decent um we're hanging out outside right now everything's [ __ ] closed thank you corona all cafes all shops
            • 16:00 - 16:30 closed up early today so we got the uh the empty park next to the uh police station to kick it at um anyway yeah a lot of this [ __ ] is just it's so hard to talk about and go over with different guys because so much of their mindset and the things that they bring up and questions that they have are just so far behind of where they should be if they've been doing this even a couple of [ __ ] months
            • 16:30 - 17:00 right and it's just like grinding [ __ ] teeth having to to do this or go over this or talk about this kind of [ __ ] with just about anybody so uh yeah it's a topic that i really don't talk with different people about because you know i've had enough years of doing this [ __ ] that uh at this point you just about you are the only person that i'm really you know straightforward and honest with um about what my personal beliefs are about
            • 17:00 - 17:30 this or that kind of thing i mean even other guys that i know that oh i'm i'm at a [ __ ] good level i make a lot of results yeah right man right you make a lot of [ __ ] happen for you but then even they have their own [ __ ] that gets in their way that they don't do anything to fix and they just fall back into getting the same simple results that they have year after year because oh it kind of works there and it's like okay you're gonna make any kind of [ __ ] improvement in the next six months the next year or
            • 17:30 - 18:00 after that and all i see is no everyone's pretty much getting older and uh all the methods of [ __ ] that uh that did work is not working for them as well and they're not adjusting and adapting to [ __ ] so much of the time i mean you can talk about uh how it has been for night game and for uh doing this [ __ ] online okay it's a different world now and yet things could be easier
            • 18:00 - 18:30 if you are making the adjustments that needed to have been made over the last few years but again i it's very rare that i even see anyone do that kind of [ __ ] okay okay so like out of all the guys i know personally i saw you really you know i saw you advance i guess you would say improve the most in this specific area because i knew you know i known you for a long time and uh you're really dedicated really focused and really as you were
            • 18:30 - 19:00 mentioning before you mentioned that most guys they have these excuses or they do kind of know what they need to do a lot of the times but they make excuses for it or they put in minimal effort or they just focus on some other kind of [ __ ] right that seems to be a lot like the majority of the guys but what do you think made you or how are you different than those other guys like what you could have been one of those guys anybody could be one of those guys right so what is what's in your specific mindset of
            • 19:00 - 19:30 you know really going out there working hard on yourself having being honest with yourself i guess or having some sort of accountability system i think that would be even if there's one thing that somebody could get from this podcast per se maybe self-accountability i gotcha okay here's the answer to that yeah before you keep going on okay um like you just said it's uh you know every guy could be this or that or whatever i think no every guy is we all are we can just do the weak simple [ __ ]
            • 19:30 - 20:00 that is normally programmed in our own brain of like okay i just you know i just do this much i'll just do that the rest of it's uncomfortable it's i don't really want to push myself to do this other thing or what's hard for me right now for example okay uh you need to go out and [ __ ] do do [ __ ] in the daytime make some make something happen have some different experience and uh make that happen oh well it's really hard to approach so so many different guys go months on end without doing any
            • 20:00 - 20:30 anything out in the day and uh stick to just [ __ ] around on the internet because that saves them the embarrassment of uh of moving forward in any way but at the same time it's like okay okay hello you're [ __ ] alive and the the day is is here and uh you're out on the street there's decent chicks left and right and for months most guys will let that [ __ ] go by and
            • 20:30 - 21:00 okay you either admit to yourself that okay i could be doing this yet i'm not right now and it's some of the uh the [ __ ] that's in your head that you let yourself get get away with by saying no i'm just gonna you know okay it'll be it'll happen later all or making excuses for it right now it's hard right now i'm not i'm not in the right kind of mindset and headspace to really to do a good job well [ __ ] either move forward with it or not but
            • 21:00 - 21:30 call it what it is and a big thing is yeah most uh most people in general can't do that and can't push forward i spend majority of all my time with girls not with guys at all um so i see girls have the same kind of [ __ ] but in it's in different areas i see the kind of mental [ __ ] that they have to deal with on their own too but it like it comes down to people being somewhat strong-willed and pushing past
            • 21:30 - 22:00 uh [ __ ] being a [ __ ] and being a [ __ ] basically and going beyond that and making something happen which is and it's kind of funny in a way too um girls have a very different life than guys do uh and you know they don't get talked [ __ ] to as much as a guy would a girl doesn't go out to a club and get berated by different people um throughout the night yet a guy could
            • 22:00 - 22:30 easily have that happen just about every night he goes out you know depending on his demeanor and how he's behaving in this situation sometimes what he wears can easily be made fun of for that but even though it might be quite a bit different for girls they still have their own [ __ ] to deal with and some of them rise above the [ __ ] that they have in their head that says oh i don't want to do this and i'm not i'm too weak for that and they do something with themselves with
            • 22:30 - 23:00 their time and make some kind of an effort um there's other people that don't too that don't do that kind of [ __ ] too but it's uh it's funny that over time the majority of people that i know and that i see it's like fashion is one part of just having a day-to-day successful life there's no people that i've known in the last decade in the last 10 years that they they're successful to a good extent
            • 23:00 - 23:30 and they just ha have no sense and don't care at the same time the other people that i've worked with i mean this fashion [ __ ] is funny too because it's like it's not that i really do it i i've worked years and years ago um for an actual company in korea here doing coordination for mannequins a little bit but the majority of actual work has just been like okay chinese clients that come over and i help them
            • 23:30 - 24:00 pick out different [ __ ] when they're going shopping but again they have plenty of money and they're here on shopping trips or plastic surgery trips and so they're able and willing to spend hundreds of thousands of dollars on a single trip and buy up whatever [ __ ] they want and at that time too you know they've had their successful career in whatever they do whether it's uh owning several buildings or having their own huge client list that they sell [ __ ] to in their own country
            • 24:00 - 24:30 they may not know what's really you know right for them to wear but at the same time they want to they want to deeply want to invest uh money and time to find what is going to make them a little bit better and they really are so focused on that during the time that you know i spend with them and they're just so happy to buy [ __ ] whatever if it's gonna help them because they know how much they stick out like a sore thumb and
            • 24:30 - 25:00 look stupid in the meetings and [ __ ] that they do when they're out when they are working and how much they're being compared and made fun of with the people that they do know so uh yeah so that's part of it so what have you noticed like so if you've had a lot of clients that you worked with with this uh like you're talking about in china here in korea as well um when they actually are presentable and wear clothes that fit and that sort of match their unique you know body shape or
            • 25:00 - 25:30 look or whatnot right um how what have you noticed or what are some stories i remember you told me some good stories before about like just differences even with some older guys i remember you were you were um sort of like a style consultant for a couple older dudes in china for a while and then they had all these crazy stories they were telling you about just the difference that it made for them right so what are some like differences that you noticed after you know some of these guys change their look up
            • 25:30 - 26:00 several different things i think one of the biggest uh biggest things that i see over the years that just happens with every [ __ ] person that i've met and hung out with and spent time with and done some shopping with see them months later and they're super happy and thankful and like oh my god when are we going to be able to go out and do this again i've been getting so many compliments yes has really turned things around and uh oh my god things have been so good as for stories i think the one that
            • 26:00 - 26:30 you're mentioning is uh uh it's really [ __ ] this dude who was he's like 64. he um he bought spaces like plots of small small property and he would make buildings between four floors to like seven floors and then sell them and he'd try to like have them built and resell them within like six months to a year period and had done that for about 20 years and then retired
            • 26:30 - 27:00 pretty much in the last uh 10 years or something so he has all this time on his hands he has [ __ ] plenty of money and he has a wife and he has a kids and he really wants uh some new girlfriends so this is this is just really [ __ ] so he comes over to korea he gets uh some surgery done basically facelift stuff then we do we do some shopping for the week that he's here uh six months later i meet him he comes back for recheck up on the surgery he's like gosh it's working great for me he has seven
            • 27:00 - 27:30 new girlfriends now and when he comes in to uh the clinic they they check them out they do up a [ __ ] and they're like okay you got two stds so the 64 year old dude is on these std meds now i'm like what the [ __ ] have you been doing who are you [ __ ] man and and he's like okay this is what i really need this time let's hit up some new stuff i need some fall fashion wear and uh basically what i what was it what was he saying he really needs
            • 27:30 - 28:00 he needs the std meds and um [ __ ] it'll come to me it'll come to me in a minute okay anyways yeah anyways he went from you know i remember you showed me some photos just like really just looked almost homeless look right to like really nice well i think what was funny about him was he was trying to he was trying to buy decent [ __ ] for him and he was spending tons of money in china being told this brand of jeans is really [ __ ]
            • 28:00 - 28:30 good this is a 400 pair of jeans so you'd buy some [ __ ] like that and it was just hideous and it's like it may have been good in the early 2000s and this company maybe still may still be expensive you know here but it's really not often the times that you know this expensive brand is really something that you actually need there may be a couple items like a sometimes a pair of shoes sometimes a bag that you use that you know okay it's
            • 28:30 - 29:00 uh it's a bit more expensive a wallet there's not that much [ __ ] you really don't get a lot of [ __ ] for having a really nice watch almost no one notices that kind of a thing and it's not something where it's like oh i need to spend a ton of [ __ ] money to look good not at all usually and more often i find everyone is overspending even with some of the most recent guys that i've done some [ __ ] with they were overspending at places like uni clue they could get [ __ ] cheaper from actual
            • 29:00 - 29:30 brands if they you know kept a decent eye out and found products that are actually useful for them instead of buying like a 50 belt from uni clue of all places you know they can get something decent you know that is actually really good but anyway that's that's like a whole other thing it's like it's person to person it depends on someone's body shape size skin tone color there's so many things that go into it so it's so hard to to say what's right for one person is
            • 29:30 - 30:00 almost always not exactly right for the next person you too we've gone out and uh we checked out some different [ __ ] once in a while and it's like what i suggest for you is absolutely [ __ ] night and day difference from what i would suggest from another person um another guy that i ended up going out and doing the same [ __ ] with uh within the same week we did completely different shopping but i mean it's like it's just something else how have i even gotten to know about this
            • 30:00 - 30:30 just keeping an eye out having some sense about myself of like oh this looks good or that that obviously doesn't but specifically picking out like okay there's some cool things there's something interesting and just over years and years of like keeping your [ __ ] eyes open it's the same thing with uh and one other little uh example i hate hearing stupid examples for for pickup [ __ ] which is so gross but one example that actually stood out was funny and just is so true
            • 30:30 - 31:00 was um it's like you know flying an airplane when a good pilot gets in a plane what does he do and what is someone who's new to flying what do they do the idiot gets in a flight like i want to stay close to the ground you know keep it safe it's in going on dates meeting girls talking with them getting their phone numbers what feels like is [ __ ] safe is the most dangerous thing to do
            • 31:00 - 31:30 sticking to what's safe and comfortable usually is the [ __ ] that [ __ ] you up the most and what does the experienced pilot do i want to get the [ __ ] up off the ground and get as high as i possibly can as quickly as possible because that's where things are [ __ ] safe that's how safety is so stepping up and locking into your set into a decent conversation with a girl having a [ __ ] conversation and then getting a decent number from that and then being straightforward about like oh another little conversation in text and straightforward hey let's [ __ ] meet
            • 31:30 - 32:00 up again we're we had a good time talking we have a good time messaging let's get right to it the majority of girls will be sure [ __ ] fine have a good decent talk where it's not creepy and weird on the date and it's just normal to go back to your place and to have intercourse and then for the girl to message and want to see you again and want to keep meeting you that's [ __ ] normal that's what normal life is so yep so a lot of it is obviously
            • 32:00 - 32:30 becoming the kind of person that people want to be around the kind of person who's self-aware of how he's coming off and the kind of person that the girl enjoys being around you know when you hit her up on the street or wherever it is during the date after sex it's not a weird thing where she's like i gotta get out of here right so as you were talking about so uh definitely one big part of that is of course if she wants to be around you she doesn't want to be embarrassed being with you because you're dressed like [ __ ] too right so
            • 32:30 - 33:00 um i know that you've been offering this uh thing for summer this uh fashion consulting that you don't really usually offer here in korea as much but uh i think you said you're gonna offer it for maybe the rest of this month i'm not sure what's the deal with that no i don't know i don't know okay i got some [ __ ] time a little bit and uh if i have time and someone asked about it then i have when i have time okay and if not like i got other [ __ ] going on so uh it's it's totally dependent on that
            • 33:00 - 33:30 uh because i got other [ __ ] going on that other [ __ ] i gotta do so all right cool well uh thanks for the interview and hopefully might get some kind of round two some other day if you have time [ __ ] that or maybe not i i think if we were ever gonna talk about this kind of [ __ ] again there would be some other aspects and things that i'd wanna talk about or focus on that that i would say would be helpful um but in the meantime like uh
            • 33:30 - 34:00 yeah today just very basic simple [ __ ] i guess talking [ __ ] to all you guys and uh talking you down about why you suck so bad and how i'm so much better than you but that's my my usual uh the usual way that i talk right so right all right signing out and until next time
