Oh my god. She's the cutest.

[–]mysticrudnin 60 points61 points ago

More evidence to that idea that intermediate second language speakers are like four year olds. I can understand the parents perfectly, if only because they're talking to a kid. Any other time? No idea what's going on.

[–]brianbrianbrian 73 points74 points ago

That's weird. As an American, I thought the best way to get you to understand me is to just say the exact same thing I said, but LOUDER. AND MAYBE. SLIGHTLY. SLOWER.

[–]ThePoliteCanadian 29 points30 points ago

Because everyone speaks English on the inside, SOME JUST NEED TO GET THE FREQUENCY, JUST...RIGHT. Ou français, si vous êtes Québécois. I'm sorry, that just came out of no where.

[–]brianbrianbrian 30 points31 points ago

Oui, oui, omelette du fromage, mon capitan... omelette du... fromage. Oui.

[–]pokelord13 5 points6 points ago

Uhh... gracias!

[–]WarYoshi 2 points3 points ago

It's Omlette au fromage

I was introduced to this cruel reality recently. :(

[–]genupb 4 points5 points ago

Croissant.

[–]Not_Ayn_Rand 18 points19 points ago

They have ridiculously good voices. Like voice actor voices.

[–]Astrokiwi 1 point2 points ago

I understood "imnida" :P

[–]ballseymcgee 10 points11 points ago

Which language is this? The text looks kinda like Korean?

[–]SunChipsSombrero 36 points37 points ago

As a Mexican I can confirm that this is not Mexican.

[–]FECALBLAST69 39 points40 points ago

it is Korean. Her father (I'm assuming the man talking is the father) says "kam sa hap nee da" after the little girl hands him some food, which translates to "thank you". Source- I went to tae kwon do school.

[–]galaghe 19 points20 points ago

He actually says gomapsupneeda. (Same meaning, different words, slightly different context.)

It's really cute when the dad asks in the really cute voice, "Appa nun?" (What about dad?) when she gives her mom the cracker AND the tangerine. And then Yerin spends the rest of the video giving her parents the rest of her snacks until they tell her to go ahead and eat her share.

Her mom tells her, "You must be full (to be giving us all your snacks)" (Bae ga buluguna) when she keeps giving away her snacks to which she promptly stuffs the last 3 slices of tangerine into her mouth. Ha.

[–]surfintehweb 25 points26 points ago

He also asks her "ma-shi-eop-seo?" (doesn't taste good?) after she makes the ambivalent face. I lived in Korea for a year and 90% of the vocabulary I learned was food-related.

And when she tries another candy a moment later she repeats "ka-ja" which means "let's go!" D'awwwwww.

[–]asianredditorgirl 32 points33 points ago

Gwa-ja also mean candy or cracker. Source: I'm Korean

[–]EhondaRyu 6 points7 points ago

It's still Korean

[–]Not_Ayn_Rand 6 points7 points ago

It's Korean

[–]ADHthaGreat 1 point2 points ago

It's Korean

[–]ImpressivePenis 48 points49 points ago

Ok... Who gives videos like this thumbs down? Is there a guy walking around who makes sure no videos have perfect thumbs up records?

[–]6months23days 6 points7 points ago

My god that girl is adorable. _^

I wonder though, when she get's older, what she'll think about the fact that her parents have posted literally OVER A HUNDRED of videos of her on youtube...not sure how i'd feel about that. If i was that cute though, I suppose I might not care, haha.

[–]Yunlokzi 8 points9 points ago

The gif was already stupidly precious. The video made me d'aww pretty damn hard. Too cute.

[–]david-me 644 points645 points ago

[–]CruelMelody 134 points135 points ago

That is the most adorable thing I've ever seen.

[–]yummyummers 392 points393 points ago

[–]sourpatch_kid 183 points184 points ago

My username is finally relevant.

[–]melonballerf 249 points250 points ago

Finally. Must have been a long 11 days.

[–]sourpatch_kid 169 points170 points ago

The longest 11 days of my life.

[–]melonballerf 69 points70 points ago

The wait is over now, you can rest, rest my child.

[–]TheTalkingCamelAnus 63 points64 points ago

Sour...sweet...gone.

[–]YouandWhosArmy 24 points25 points ago

I shudder at the thought that your username might ever become relevant

[–]yummyummers 19 points20 points ago

[–]russell_m 52 points53 points ago

Goodnight, sour prince.

[–]ArmedBull 19 points20 points ago

It's going to be a while until mine is relevant.

Edit- TIL my username is quite relevant. Carry on then.

[–]sourpatch_kid 37 points38 points ago

[–]FreeBabies 13 points14 points ago

I think it would be pretty depressing if mine became relevant

[–]beta_crater 27 points28 points ago

[–]picklehammer 4 points5 points ago

mine will never be relevant.

[–]Cowboy_Coder 3 points4 points ago

Don't try to take a baby from here. That would be shoplifting. These babies are not free.

[–]Nootwerks 3 points4 points ago

[–]u144 4 points5 points ago

Oh, reddit, how you crack me up when I'm feeling down. (:

[–]mjc462 3 points4 points ago

Looks like he is eating a bag or Sour RINGwraiths....ehhh???

[–]ImmatureEjaculation 18 points19 points ago

Looks like he is glitching out.

[–]iamPause 6 points7 points ago

It's dancing to dubstep.

[–]Nova1 106 points107 points ago

Yerin :) Same girl from the sleepy baby waking up video.

[–]ricepanda 38 points39 points ago

My god I have never had my face stuck in a stupid grin for that long.

Yerin is the epitome of r/aww

[–]CheekySprite 10 points11 points ago

Oh, gosh! That was ridiculously adorable...

[–]JuniperJupiter 4 points5 points ago

In turn, reminds me of this.

:)

[–]iamfromcanada[S] 82 points83 points ago

[–]SawyerScott 26 points27 points ago

I like how most of them keep eating it after they realize how sour it is. Too cute!

[–]mehugz 24 points25 points ago

Never before have I wanted a lemon so badly / found a human child adorable.

[–][deleted] 10 points11 points ago

That baby is ugly. Not even Asian.

[–]fatalillusion 3 points4 points ago

I'm with you on this one!

[–]niako 8 points9 points ago

Now I want to do this to my kid... Damn you internet.

[–]Glinting_Eyes 2 points3 points ago

I remember seeing my cousin have one for the first time. She was watching me eat a lemon wedge at a restaurant, so she got her mother to give her one, and she had that exact same look on her face when she tried it :D

[–]Buglet91 311 points312 points ago

Not to be racist or anything but Asians are the cutest babies. Seriously, they're just cuter than other races babies.

[–]mswabs 56 points57 points ago

It's their pudgy little cheeks. Not to mention the fact that their parents dress them in such adorable clothes! They really are just damn cute!

[–]Aries37 27 points28 points ago

Asian cats like Maru are also more awesome than other cats.

[–]CheekySprite 42 points43 points ago

I agree. I've always thought so. I'm not even remotely Asian either.

[–]CyanIsNotBlue 14 points15 points ago

This is my pick up line, modified from Louis CK. "Ok I know, but think of how cute your baby would look."

[–]IRLpuddles 13 points14 points ago

sooo...punnet squares before dinner?

[–]Astrokiwi 10 points11 points ago

This is actually a common sentiment: it's actually pretty sad, because there are some adoption agencies that will charge more if you want to adopt an Asian baby.

[–]SwitchesDF 85 points86 points ago

I personally think black babies take the cake. It's the hair.

[–]TheLoveKraken 39 points40 points ago

Part of me wants to disagree, but it might just be that I'm in Scotland so I've only really seen black babies in charity ads for starving Africans.

[–]Rich0 209 points210 points ago

Could someone explain to me why white babies are so ugly? Looking at my baby pictures I could probably understand why our dog attacked me when I was a baby.

[–]JuniperJupiter 8 points9 points ago

They probably tend to be pink, red, wrinkly...and LOUD when firstborn.

(former white baby...sorry, society)

[–]ballseymcgee -1 points0 points ago

I was pretty cute as a kid. I think it's just that you usually only see cute kids get popular on the internet. Just like attractive people are famous. No one wants to see super ugly people. This asian girl is awesome, but I'm sure you could find some ugly ones.

[–]alkapwnee 29 points30 points ago

I was pretty cute as a kid.

That is what we all tell ourselves.

[–]Vaztes 7 points8 points ago

Except Rich0; Rich0 called himself ugly.

[–]Trapped_SCV 2 points3 points ago

I was pretty cute as a kid.

Reminds me of this

[–]JeremyJustin 48 points49 points ago

I have a few half-Asian half-black friends. Their baby pictures would make any grown man squeal. Asian-baby cuteness with the black-baby cuteness plus the black-baby hair.

[–]tumbleweedss 6 points7 points ago

You know multiple half asian half black people?

[–]Parthenonn 5 points6 points ago

I'm not him but I know quite a few. California Bay Area is quite the place.

[–]SunshinNroses 6 points7 points ago

I know its old but shes just so cute: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lvii4ck3h_s

[–]CynicalRealist 5 points6 points ago

It's the cheeks and the eyes.

[–]123bangin 1 point2 points ago

Oh yes. :) Half-asian babies, though...not so much. I'm half-Asian, and I looked like a monster when I was a baby....

[–]joelav 73 points74 points ago

This is the highest quality .gif I have ever seen

[–]indecisivemonkey 71 points72 points ago

.gif quality: Asian

[–]geetar_man 15 points16 points ago

You're the only one who has addressed this. I was surprised by the quality.

[–]hahagato 5 points6 points ago

I've seen similarly high quality gifs on /r/gifs but they're usually very long and take 3 days to load.

[–]foxtrotwhiskey9 5 points6 points ago

It totally freaked me out. GIFs should not look that great.

[–]dr_chicken 3 points4 points ago

[–]Astrokiwi 3 points4 points ago

Here's the thing: gifs are lossless compression, provided you only use 256 colours per frame. So I guess the trick is to have a narrow range of colours. So I guess that the fairly pastel colour scheme that's going on here works to its advantage.

[–]More_Wine_Please 147 points148 points ago

I NEED AN ASIAN BABY!!

[–]tenkokuugen 105 points106 points ago

We can make that happen.

[–]ZedZeeZee 48 points49 points ago

HADOUKEN

[–]Player_Uno 69 points70 points ago

[–]Mr_McGrumpypants 4 points5 points ago

Oh my god. I think the cuteness gave me a headache.

[–]6months23days 4 points5 points ago

Man, I wish all babies came built in with Hadouken reactions. :(

[–]zlickrick 61 points62 points ago

[–]mswabs 26 points27 points ago

[–]StrictlyIntoDick 14 points15 points ago

I can make that happen. ;)

[–]Sember 4 points5 points ago

But you're strictly into dick...

[–]G0VERNMENT 2 points3 points ago

So does this guy

[–]TheTalkingCamelAnus 2 points3 points ago

That's it, I'm cutting you off.

[–]VeritasTheos 41 points42 points ago

Awww it's Yerin!

[–]fogdelune 15 points16 points ago

Yerin is like the Maru of babies.

[–]Today_is_Thursday 39 points40 points ago

Those cheekbone dimples! AWWW.

[–]edenfae 76 points77 points ago

I love oatmeal raisin cookies. They're delicious.

[–]JupitersClock 6 points7 points ago

Eating one right now.

[–]Mernercreft 9 points10 points ago

Raisins are awesome.They are even more awesome when mixed with almonds,walnuts or hazelnuts.Or all together.

[–]ubomw 3 points4 points ago

[–]itsmoist 15 points16 points ago

She looks disappointed like her parents just deceived her.

[–]dweebcentric 13 points14 points ago

[–]twforeman 30 points31 points ago

Can't. Stop. Watching.

Love the cute WTF? face.

[–]AmishSpaceCadet 9 points10 points ago

That second look is a look of betrayal.

[–]lostpatrol 9 points10 points ago

She could teach Kirsten Stewart a thing or two about method acting.

[–]BlackDahliaParton 9 points10 points ago

That gif alone is worth all the time and resources it took to develop the .gif as a file format.

[–]eugenelopez 15 points16 points ago

Ahhh! It's Yerin :)

[–]astazangasta 7 points8 points ago

Hey, how come your gif isn't a grainy piece of shit at a super-low framerate? We have standards, here!

[–][deleted] 7 points8 points ago

omg it is Yerinnnnnnn, I love this baby. Asian babies are the cutest.

[–]humankirk 6 points7 points ago

Asian babies are the best babies. I'll take 3.

[–]chenjoe6172 5 points6 points ago

"MMmmmm this is good, wait a minute. No it's not."

[–]reggatronics 15 points16 points ago

My wife is Asian... Our kids will be glorious.

[–]thebokkie 4 points5 points ago

Where can I buy one of these adorable things?

[–]daniellemx 17 points18 points ago

Happy cake day :)

[–]iamfromcanada[S] 20 points21 points ago

Happy cake day to you too!

[–]sourpatch_kid 4 points5 points ago

Why does the cake look different now?

[–]weagle11 14 points15 points ago

[–]Dondae 29 points30 points ago

Prepared for downvotes, but this is 100% cuter than all of the annoying cat pictures on here.

Edit: Today I learned how not to comment on Reddit

[–]ilikefacts 32 points33 points ago

I agree with you, but if you're prepared for downvotes, I might as well oblige.

[–]nomanoid 6 points7 points ago

That's a solid fact, right there.

[–]Jetech 4 points5 points ago

she has grown so big!

[–]kimbo1081 2 points3 points ago

I usually get this reaction when I show people my family photo album. The first page has a picture of my younger sister as a newborn baby. The second page has a picture of Nicolas Cage.

[–]iamtherockshow 1 point2 points ago

"Oh, this is ver- WHAT THE SHIT."

[–]moses-supposes 1 point2 points ago

This is the exact series of faces my baby makes when the cat baps him with her paw. "Hey, she touched me! Awww, it hurt!" Eyebrows up, eyebrows down.

[–]SuicideSilence 1 point2 points ago

The longer you watch it the funny and cuter it gets!

Pretty sure she's Korean... The plate she has is Pororo, a Korean cartoon character.

Has the same expression as my 3 year old when I gave her a sour gummy bear.

[–]stupidbookah 0 points1 point ago

It's Yerin! She keeps on being the cutest kid I've ever seen. Sometimes I think about reproducing, but then I remember my ugly Westerner genes would never produce anything as adorable as her and I just abandon the idea.
