Luke Williams (Gay Life)
Youtube: www.youtube.com/user/jeongyun9847
Although this YouTuber may not have a huge amount of subscribers just yet, I believe Luke will be a leading force for the Korean community . As you may or may not know, S. Korea is still a very conservative country. Although there has been huge advances in this country the mind set of many Koreans are not as open as to those in the United States. I will say that I am ecstatic and proud to see individuals like Luke who are brave enough to expel rumors and educate the public about homosexuality. Not only has this young man found his own voice but his channel has reached out to so many individuals who may be too scared or ashamed to come out. He has openly spoke about the issues that face gay men and in doing so it has diffused the negativity that has been attached to this topic. We definitely need more individuals like Luke to take a stand and for that we love him to death!

Eat Your Kimchee- Simon and Martina Stawski (Korean vs. Western)
www.youtube.com/user/simonandmartina
Eat Your Kimchee is comprised of Simon and Martina Stawski. The premise of the channel compares the differences in Korean and Western culture. Their videos have accumulated more than 240 million views and is ranked 18th as the most popular YouTube channel in Korea. Unlike other travel channels that showcase landmarks, this duo teaches travelers about the daily life of each country. Their show completely ignores what the travel books present, instead they will take you to the best mom and pop restaurants where all the locals go. It doesn't stop there though, their videos will also give you information about the Korean language, music, food and even demonstrate the basics of how to use a washing machine.
