Second, I’m sorry about the crap that’s been dragging you down. You seem like a genuinely good person who tries to do the right thing. Your content distinguished itself. It’s high quality, thorough, reasoned, objective, sometimes funny. I don’t always agree with all of your opinions which is just fine. When it comes to Lego - you’re the gold standard for me. I hope you sail through this patch and emerge stronger on the other side. I, and many others, will be rooting you on. Keep up the exceptional work.

I have tried to become a bit of a peace and kindness activist, and it is both heavy/spirit-sapping AND a drain on my Lego-therapy time. It's as if we have seen many public figures , and even old friends, unmasked lately, and they, like Stormtrooper Mini-Figs, are all turning out to be Angry Clone. Your beautiful, shiny, intelligent channel has lifted me and kept me company through some lonely, scary times, and I still check every chance I get on WiFi for Jang content. Please keep on keepin' on, because Lego listens to you, and the world needs Lego and you both.

I value your insight and opinion on sets even when it's not something I'll be buying. I love your MOCs and new Jang city updates. <br />To grab a bit of time, sit and have a cup of coffee and watch one of your videos is a nice switch off from daily life. Thank you for all that you do.

I'm happy though your channel(s) still seem to do alright - and more importantly that you are happy with what you are doing!<br />About the popularity of Lego in general, I think that it may just be going back to 'normal' levels after being quite massively hyped in recent years. As long it stays popular with kids and has a healthy AFOL-followership, I am not worried about TLG ;)<br />I really enjoyed the recent, more casual, longform reviews. Also grouping sets of a certain theme into one video works really well for me. I'm also quite taken by the ASMR-approach with your build-videos. I haven't really seen those from that perspective (and don't really watch them; im more music-focused really), but it does make a lot of sense!<br />Susanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17745080531270332514noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3824360734690778592.post-70981643143645289802019-09-18T02:45:48.828-07:002019-09-18T02:45:48.828-07:00You are the bestYou are the bestAnonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04864259779210851467noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3824360734690778592.post-11942962524570349912019-09-18T02:44:49.166-07:002019-09-18T02:44:49.166-07:00Jang I will always have your back.i will still sea...Jang I will always have your back.i will still search and watch every single video. <br />You are my best YouTuber so I will never <br />Unsubscribe or dislike a video .Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04864259779210851467noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3824360734690778592.post-18479877110775379852019-09-18T00:24:11.916-07:002019-09-18T00:24:11.916-07:00I have recently emerged from my own 'dark ages...I have recently emerged from my own 'dark ages' and have begun re-exloring the passion for Lego I had in my youth. Historically, I have been interested only in Soacenor Star Wars Lego. And then I found your channel. There are maybe half a dozen Lego content creators that I follow but yours is, without doubt, my personal favourite. You portray a sense of authenticity and approachability that I really enjoy, and you have, almost single-handedly, broadened my Lego horizons to include other themes within the Lego system portfolio. As a quiet voice from a distant South Africa, I have to thank you, Jang, for being a big part of my re-discovery of the joy of Lego, in all its forms. So, as long as you keep publishing content, I will keep watching. You, sir, with your honesty approach and clear enjoyment of, and enthusiasm for, the great Danish Brick,represent everything that is right about Lego. Bravo, and long may it continue Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01613005595413471993noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3824360734690778592.post-18474923562426167722019-09-17T18:53:20.265-07:002019-09-17T18:53:20.265-07:00I have been watching your videos for more than a y...I have been watching your videos for more than a year now.I never miss a review no matter if it is a set I want or not.

Since then, I read numerous times that Lego sales have dramatically increased down here, we've had our first ever official Lego store open and now a whole lot more of them on the way, in many different states. We are but one country, of course, but I am still surprised at those search trends.<br /><br />This is how our family got back into Lego, following the Lego Masters show. With the kids right in Lego age, their Dad a Lego fan since childhood with a decent Star Wars collection from early adulthood, and me freshly enthused by the show, Lego has been a big thing for us this year. I also know from conversations with both kids and parents that the childrens' friends all watched and loved the show, too, and have been really into Lego all year as a result. The show was really inspiring to kids and adults alike, and as someone who only had one small Lego kit as a child and didn't know anything more, it was certainly eye-opening!<br /><br />Since then, we've enjoyed many, many Jang reviews and love following your Jang city updates. Your channels have been an integral part of our childrens' enjoyment of and enthusiasm for Lego, inspiring their own creativity, not to mention helping Mum&Dad decide what to spend their $ on for our secret stash of Lego sets for upcoming birthdays and Christmas. Many thanks for all your work, and all the best.RedDesertRozhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11749647960654082696noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3824360734690778592.post-27037256447973624522019-09-17T16:10:19.851-07:002019-09-17T16:10:19.851-07:00"because stonks" love it ahaha, best of ..."because stonks" love it ahaha, best of luck!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3824360734690778592.post-9878334091102159022019-09-17T15:56:00.717-07:002019-09-17T15:56:00.717-07:00Thanks for being so transparent Jang.
