A Trip with Dad Opened My Eyes to Korea 💙

Hey guys, it’s Joy! 🎬 How a trip with my dad completely opened my eyes to South Korea. Growing up with my dad—who is my absolute mentor and a veteran defense expert—always meant learning to see the world through a slightly different lens. In this video, I’m taking you along on a special journey down memory lane, connecting our family trip to the naval museum in New York (visiting the historic USS Growler!) with something that has been completely blowing my mind lately. We’re diving into South Korea’s incredible maritime security, its rising naval power (Ranked #5 globally by WDMMW! ⚓️), and why a nation surrounded by three seas absolutely needs advanced defense capabilities. #JoysLifeInKOREA #KoreaSecurity #MaritimeDefense #NavyDad #Submarine #WDMMW #KoreanNavy #FamilyTrip #GlobalDefense
