the truth about being an online couple

Added: 2026-05-13

[00:00:16]Hi guys, what's up? Welcome back.

[00:00:19]Today's special guest, Hung, my boyfriend. The last time that we filmed a couple's Q&A video has been a while, I believe. We were baking cookies in our old apartment and I feel like a lot has happened ever since. So, we just wanted to catch up with you guys, answer some questions in a very casual style video.

[00:00:38]We're not going to be answering questions that we've had on our previous videos. So, if you want kind of like more basic questions about us, go watch the other vlogs. Also, just so you guys know, I asked you guys on my Instagram.

[00:00:50]We're just randomly going to find some here and we didn't see them either. So, we wanted our reactions to be very spontaneous. Okay. The first question is, how or when did you two want to start living together? This is our second apartment and we started living together pretty early considering that we've only been a couple for a year back then, right?

[00:01:11]>> I think yeah, after being together for a year, we moved together. It was pretty fast, but >> yeah, we never questioned it. And also, there's just so many benefits to moving in together with another person, just like rentwise. And it's just so much easier, I feel like, with the paperwork, too. So, >> if we both wanted to move to Berlin, then the best choice would be that we live together.

[00:01:31]>> We didn't even question living apart from each other, if I'm being honest.

[00:01:34]>> Yeah, >> I think so.

[00:01:36]>> No.

[00:01:37]>> Yeah. Yeah.

[00:01:38]>> Who initiated the first kiss?

[00:01:40]>> I think it was you, right? I think it was me. Yeah.

[00:01:46]>> I love how quickly this this question was answered. Oh, what do you love the most about each other? That's a cute one. Okay. But it's also a very hard question because >> there's so many with me, right?

[00:01:56]>> Yeah. He's very organized and he always try to go sleep very early and has his routine. I think that is very rare like nowadays. There's not enough time to talk about all of these. So >> Oh, that's so cute. Honestly, you're just my comfort person. I would say like I'm really I can be myself around you.

[00:02:15]And I think that's a quality that is really hard to find in people nowadays.

[00:02:19]I just feel like in general you're a very good person and I I appreciate that about you. If you swapped routines for a day, who would lose their mind first?

[00:02:29]>> I think I would lose my mind first. Kind of drive me crazy if I have to wake up, I don't know, like very early in the morning and then and I have like a very long to-do list. I think that would drive me crazy.

[00:02:40]>> I don't even have a to-do list in the morning.

[00:02:42]>> No, but you have like three journals.

[00:02:44]That is >> Well, I would drive crazy from missing all the schedules that I have. My hair is bothering me so much.

[00:02:49]>> No, it looks good. Next one. Which song or book would you pick to describe your partner? I think I would take Gnarly from Cat's eye.

[00:02:59]>> There's this Chinese artist that I associate with you a lot. Maybe a song from Sweet John because that's also the time that we met each other.

[00:03:06]>> Yeah, I would take that.

[00:03:07]>> Yeah, right. That's a good one. What's the next thing you want to achieve together? We recently moved into this apartment and that was definitely on my bucket list with you. I would say just make many more like new memories here in this apartment and kind of like find a routine.

[00:03:23]>> I think this is a question that we should answer together.

[00:03:25]>> I think I know what you want to say now.

[00:03:27]>> Some >> get a cat, right?

[00:03:30]>> No.

[00:03:31]>> Oh, okay.

[00:03:32]>> I mean, yeah, cuz Leo just exposed this.

[00:03:34]I really want to get a cat, but he's not um cat person to say, but yeah, >> we're traveling a lot, so that might be a concern of mine is that we can't take care of our pets. I mean, that's true, though. So, I think we should think it through before we get a cab. I think this is not something that we should achieve together, but I really want to get my driver's license.

[00:03:54]>> You could drive us both around with it.

[00:03:56]So, technically, >> yeah, it's Yeah, I think so, too.

[00:04:00]>> What's it like being an online couple?

[00:04:02]Honestly, there's also some more like difficult times if I'm being honest.

[00:04:06]Basically, the work that we do is with each other. We help each other take our photos, take content together.

[00:04:12]Obviously, at times it felt like we replaced our quality time together with content. That's something that I found difficult about being an online couple.

[00:04:21]>> I wouldn't complain. It's not like it's super bad.

[00:04:23]>> We love taking content for you guys.

[00:04:25]Altogether, I would say it is definitely what brought us both here into this apartment in a way and also even further in our relationship because we learned to grow past those difficulties.

[00:04:37]>> All in all, I think we wouldn't choose other way. So, okay. So the next question is were you each other's type?

[00:04:43]I think for me it's very hard to say because of course yes but back then at the time I wasn't even sure that I was into boys. It's hard to say if you were my type or not and like back then in my thoughts but but obviously definitely he's my type. It's still so crazy that we got together because back then I didn't think that was a possibility at all cuz I only heard your dating stories with like girls. I would say that you were my type. If you want to know how we met, go watch the first vlog. I basically talked to you because I felt attracted. But also, I don't have a specific type like lookswise, I would say, cuz the people that I used to date in the past, they were pretty different.

[00:05:25]>> A lot of people, they have like a very specific type. I don't think that's the case for me. You don't have a checklist for people. That's like >> Yeah, that's what I wanted to say.

[00:05:33]>> What was your first big argument about >> Do you have an answer?

[00:05:36]>> I do. So, personally, the first one that just came into my mind was about like whether if we should move to London, if you should move to Berlin because originally I wanted to move to London before I met you. Basically, I got accepted at a university in London.

[00:05:52]Hongu does not have a residency to live in the UK. So, we decided to come to Berlin and that was something that we I guess argued about because it would definitely determine our future together and if we could work out and we were already talking about long distance and I think that was just something that we both worried about.

[00:06:11]>> True. I remember and you like cried and then screamed on the street while you were like okay the next one is what were your thoughts after the first date?

[00:06:25]I think.

[00:06:25]>> Do you even remember our first date?

[00:06:27]>> Yeah, definitely. You >> I do.

[00:06:30]>> Why I thought that? For me, it's like uh yeah, really good.

[00:06:36]>> Okay, I'll start. So, the first date was at a cafe that's called Leaping. It's still one of our favorite places in Vienna and we still go there whenever we visited together. Honestly, I thought you were much more charming than when I saw you at the for the first time. I don't know. I guess we were already pretty comfortable with each other. I didn't picture us getting together at that point if I'm being honest. Like I looked at you as a friend.

[00:06:59]>> I think my first impression after the first date was like um it was really easy talking to you. I was really comfortable talking to you and I think that it's very hard nowadays cuz sometimes when you talk to someone it's like I don't know what to say or the other person don't know what to say. So it's like, you know, often it's like very awkward or, you know, like you're just doing some small talks and it's not interesting. Both of the people in the the conversation are bored. But I think in this case with you, we really had like really good conversations. Even just like on the first time we met, >> I remember whenever we hung out, it was always until pretty late. Like we walked to the IKEA rooftop, for example, stayed there until midnight and then took the last train home. We always wanted to hang out for as long as we could. That That's something that I I appreciate that.

[00:07:49]>> Time flies so fast.

[00:07:50]>> It doesn't feel like we're together for almost 5 years. That's such a long time.

[00:07:54]>> That is crazy, actually.

[00:07:56]>> Do you guys have the same hobbies?

[00:07:58]>> No, I think we >> I don't think so. Yeah.

[00:08:00]>> So, sportsswise, I don't think so because I take dance classes regularly and Hongi plays bitten and he goes running. I guess if you would say that content creation is like a hobby too, which I don't know if that counts because it's in your work. Favorite corner in your new apartment? I know yours for sure. It's the couch in our bedroom. I think for now it would be the couch in our bedroom cuz we obviously you can see that we still don't have a couch in our living room right now, but we already ordered one. It's on the way.

[00:08:30]But I think that would be my new favorite spot in our new apartment.

[00:08:35]Since your answer is for me, I think for you it would be the kitchen. Oh, this is so dramatic cuz we have like a huge table there and he always like to work there and sit there and do his stuff.

[00:08:46]So, I think that would be his favorite one.

[00:08:48]>> I read there because the lighting is best in the evening. I love the kitchen table. I mean, you guys saw it. It's really nice. Our biggest fan, Dylan, when are we brunching together? Come over anytime. What's your favorite movie together? That's going to be our last question cuz I feel like we've answered a lot already.

[00:09:03]>> Definitely. I have to pick one for both of us, then it would be probably the drama.

[00:09:08]>> Oh, yeah. You're right. And a lot of people said they didn't like it. Why? It was so good and so funny. I mean, to be fair, we go to the movies pretty much every week.

[00:09:17]>> If there's good movies, if there's good.

[00:09:20]>> So, I guess we're going to wrap up the video right here. Thank you guys for asking us so many questions. We only posted it about an hour ago and there were already so many to choose from. So, it's kind of sad cuz we're going to miss a lot of the questions that are going to be asked throughout today. However, we wanted to give the people a chance with questions that are first. Thank you guys for watching.

[00:09:41]>> Subscribe >> and I'll see you guys next week.

[00:09:43]>> Bye-bye. Bye.
