For those of yall with satellite TV, check your programming guide for a station called KBS, its the public broadcasting network of Korea and yours truly will be gracing their show called English 911 in a matter of weeks. If you dont have satellite or cant located KBS, call your cable provider and demand that they offer the show via pay-per-view or something because I put on a performance to rival Scorsese.
Heres the story: I work with a girl who's Korean boyfriend is a pretty successful commodities trader and was selected to be the topic of an episode of English 911, an educational program that deals with English in business settings. The producers wanted to film him speaking English in a relaxed setting so they asked him to bring some foreign friends to a bar so they could film him interacting with some native speakers. Naturally, he thought of me, whether it was before or after his girlfriend is debatable, but regardless we all met last night to begin shooting (as its called in the business). So we spent about 30-45 minutes filming in this bar, just trying to act natural, after which we are told they will probably edit the footage down to 1 or 2 usable minutes. Not exactly the fast track to an Emmy, but at least I got my foot in the door.
Oh, and for the guys, the host of the show was a former Miss Korea, but I didnt find that out until her and the producers left - so I missed my chance at a date with a model, but at least I will get my 2 minutes of fame.
Hopefully I will be able to get a copy of the show to upload, but until then, just look for me in People or something.
Also, I uploaded more pictures, if youre not bored of them yet, click the link to the right as usual.
