8:04 “In retrospect, I never gave up. No matter where I was, I always strived to be better than who I was yesterday” You are such an inspiration, thank you 🙏🏻😊

Hey Pirates, CMU is not a well-known university in South Korea. Also, the job market there was brutal with youth unemployment rate going over 12% at one point.
@Rexdrey
See your $360k offer is well earned and deserved it’s crazy you went to Carnegie Mellon but companies where not snatching you straight out of school but still i love your journey I’m starting mine now i graduate in 2023 and pray for success
@jeffreyd2564
I loved this video so much! You never gave up, always kept pushing on! I am about to start college for computer science in software engineering, I am so nervous but since a kid I’ve always wanted to code and create things with technology. I’m currently a full time truck driver and going to be going to school for computer science . It’s videos like yours and my self driven motivation that keep me going. Thank you so much !
@cjbtantay
Thank you for making this video. I'm around your age (3-4 years younger) and I started my coding journey in 2018 eventually landing a job in jan of 2020 (at 28 years old). I'm definitely on the older side and started my career later compared to my co-workers. This video helped me remember the good and the bad times along the way. I also had many rejection and failures, but like you, I'm here now doing what I love.
@Teng_XD
Thanks for your video!!! I couldn't believe that you experience these difficulties, at the beginning I thought that you might get lots of offers after graduations, since I feel that you probably have strong abilities in CS. Until now, I know that not only me faced lots of obstacles about finding a job. Life is hard, let's fighting to overcome obstacles!
@NgocTran-ke8pi
Such an inspiring story! I started my career path more smoothly and early than others but through this path, I changed my direction and had to stop to look for my own way many times. Now I am still walking on the way that I am creating by myself and do not know if I know where is my final destination. Sometimes i doubt it, sometimes I strongly feel determined. However, I still keep trying and trying to find my place where I could finally settle down
@anthonycanon
This video randomly appear on my feed, I watched the whole thing and it made me a emotional a bit. You are such an inspiration. Thank you!
@no3lcodes
Thank you for sharing this. I started my journey at 24, I always wanted to code and never really did it for one reason or another. Now I am making money I never thought of making and having fun in a job I love. Thank you for sharing PK. Much love ❤

@mussazeb4556
wow this video is simply amazing not gonna lie you should be a voice over narrator. Your voice is just so calming and i loved the quote in the end as well as the one piece references. I hope i get to be like you one day and make my family proud. Have a good one!
@devvs9540
I found your channel a few months back in the weirdest way, but your eagerness to grow further has kept me watching your videos over and over. This was a great one.
@adrianoooo10000
Thank you for this video! I was unmotivated to go to my muay thai training, and I wanted to study one more hour. But actually, those activities like exercising, learning a new language, playing a new instrument and reading are actually very important as well. If we rely ONLY in the coding It can be bad for our mental health
@davidkang5708
I work as a product manager at a tech company and I started reading one piece two weeks ago bc of you!
@danielchoi6128
Wow. This detailed explanation gives so much more understanding of who you are—especially with the many failures and rejections you experienced. On the surface level, I had always thought that with a degree from CMU, your career was nothing but smooth. Watching how you got rejected from so many companies in Korea was shocking. Nice ending 👍🏻 Now you can freely roam the vast sea of network. Don’t know if all your subs would be able to fit on your boat 🤣🤣
@nhandangvan2296
I came across this video when I was feeling pressured by my programming work. Thank you so much for your honest sharing.
@shokaku125
As an incoming CMU freshman, this video is so inspiring. That last part really resonated with me! Congratulations on being where you are today.
@fyasin4877
Thank you for sharing. I myself just made switch career from a mechanic to being a Full Stack guy. I'm already struggling not just the job but trying to fit in with the company but seeing your vid, it ok to struggle but dont give up.
