It's been over a year, but I still want to use all the awesome footage I got in Korea. This is highlights from the 2012 R16 World Bboy championships! These are literally the best breakdancers in the world. It was an incredible experience for me. I got to see the sickest stunts and the tightest choreography!
hi! i love your youtube videos and your blog accounts of korea! if you don't mind me asking, how did you acquire such an awesome internship?
Hey there! Thank you very much :) I really lucked out, actually. Someone who works in the company is a friend of a family friend, and I happened to hear that they had an opening.
My latest Lohut video! Star-studded VIP premiere for box office hit, "The Grand Heist."
Are Koreans skinny because kids play on exercise machines?
Second video in my new series, Lohut! In which I go to a movie premiere.
I'm starting a Youtube series about my adventures in Korea. This is just an announcement video, so not too much going on; I talk and eat a waffle. I think I'm pretty funny, though. A little bit?
Another day, another press conference! This was a week or so ago, for the movie <Dangerously Excited> starring Yoon Jae Moon from "The King to Hearts" and Sung Joon from "Shut Up! Flower Band". Such lovely young ladies :) Afterwards we had a nice big dinner of SAMGYUPSAL *drool.* Essentially grilled slabs of superthick bacon. At the dinner I secretly took pics of Cha Tae Hyun and the lovely Park Shin Hye from "You're Beautiful."
I met some of my sorority sisters and we went to a swanky lounge called Touche for a Lambda Phi Epsilon reunion. It was exciting and almost surreal at first (JYP was there!) but personally I tired of it pretty quickly and we left after 3 hours.
I hope my sisters dont hate me too much for posting this picture in which we look terrible... at least, something weird is going on with my face :D
Planning a press conference, HERE?!
Street food!
What's that? Why, it's a cart with giant squid tentacles.
Then we have some corndogs deep-fried with fries on them,
followed by a burger with rice in place of a bun.
Finally, a man making fresh "hot bars" which are skewers of fish cakes. mine had a hotdog in it and it was yummy :)
Celebrities that I've seen so far. "Seen" indicated that I have never spoken to them.
It’s in a vague order of who I care about, whether because I personally like them or they are more famous. I’m including the person’s most famous work, in case you know them.
I’ll make a separate post with celebrities that I’ve actually spoken to.
From the top right: Cha Tae Hyun (My Sassy Girl), Kang Hye Jung (Welcome to Dokmagol), Tablo (Epik High), Soo Ae (Athena), Park Shin Hye (You’re Beautiful), Jang Hyuk (Chuno), Ryu Seung Yong (Iris), Lee Jung Jae (The Housemaid), Ha Jung Woo (The Chaser), Go Hyun Jung (Queen Seonduk), Yoo Hae Jin (Tazza), Choi Il Hwan (Coffee Prince, he’s also every evil drama dad ever), Uhm Jung Hwa (singer), Go Jun Hee (Can You Hear My Heart), Sung Dong Il (My Girlfriend is a Gumiho, he’s also in everything), Go Chang Seok (Hello Ghost), Lee Moon Sik (Rooftop Prince), Sung Joon (My Fair Lady), Song Ha Yoon (Strongest Chilwoo), Yoon Jae Moon (The King to Hearts), Kim Hee Jung (Dangerously Excited), Jung Man Sik (Best Love), Baek Jin Hee (High Kick: Attack of the Short Legs)
I went to a movie premiere today and took a lot of really awful pictures. Here are some of the better ones. I got to stand with the reporters so I had a good view :)
Counter-clockwise from the top: Tablo and Kang Hye Jung (note the adorable hand-holding), Lee Jehoon, Kang Yewon, and the cast of Miss Go (Go Hyunjung, Yoo Haejin, Sung Dongil, Lee Moonshik, and Go Changseok).
Lee Jehoon and Kang Yewon I had met (met, not just seen) before at a photoshoot for <Fortunetellers>. I waved to Jehoon and HE RECOGNIZED ME! He gave me "the nod" and waved back. The girls behind me were like "Oh my God he looked at me!" But I was like HAHAHA no. He was waving at me.
Honey Tarae!! A sweet eaten by the king. I LOVE IT. I'm planning on buying some to take back to the States with me. Want some? Heh. You start with pure, boiled-down honey in a little disk. You pull and pull until its as thin as hair, coating it in soy flour. Then you put some peanut or almond power and wrap it up like a little package. It's pretty much amazing.
This mural shows a progression in Korea's development. I especially like how even the style of art changes.
I had the day off, so I met my cousin in Myeongdong which, from memory, is my favorite place in Seoul It's stuffed with boutiques, carts, and shops. While there was a lot of beautiful stuff, I found that most Korean trends aren't really my style. I still bought several things though. This post is about the neighborhood, but I'll have separate posts about the food and also my purchases.
I was particularly intrigued by the elaborate beauty boutiques, so here are a few examples of that. After shopping and eating, My cousin and I went to a dog cafe -- it's just how it sounds, a cafe filled with dogs. Cuteness abounds <3 Also, I met a pro skater. People introduced me to him because we're both from America, but it turns out we're also the same age and he's from the town that I live in now. Is it a small world or what?
My cubicle neighbors made this. *goosebumps* Lee Young Hyun was the main singer of Big Mama, which was a YG group. They were famous for being the only group of overweight women in the music industry. Who cares when you sing like this -.-
On Sunday, I went to an outdoor market with Robert, who was my PAFN dad at UVA. He's working at a lab in Korea. I didn't buy anything, but I was entranced by the high quality knock-offs.
For lunch I was a daredevil and had bibimbap... with raw beef (yookhwe). It actually tasted... kinda like sushi, just a little less fishy. That makes sense.
And we passed a bar... WTH kind of sign is that??
