I'm not sure what is going on but this last week has been crazy!

The national student newspaper did a story about me teaching at our school. The next day the Kookje newspaper came to our school and did a story about me, interviewed me, and I was on the front page of that newspaper on Saturday. And today some radio station showed up at our school to interview me and my students. What the hell? This is awesome. I wonder what is next, maybe TV. Maybe I'll be a Korean TV star! haha. Seriously though, did anyone see the paper on Saturday? My interview airs Wednesday mornig, but Im not sure the channel yet. Thats two newspapers and one radio program this week, CRAZY

Haha. I actually didn't even know I was getting interviewed for the Kookje paper, I thought it was for the government school paper. So I was suprised as hell when I heard I was on the front page of tha paper on Sat. I was like, what the hell! Awesome!

If I can get famous enough I could parlay this into an acting career Cool

Slap a book together, record the interview, cut out the newspaper stories, and take it all to a publishing company. You should get at least a few million won out of the shake...

I'm trying to get a TV interview and maybe some movie deals. Look out Daniel Henny!

PS, I updated my signature!

be careful with the interviews. I did an interview with a TV place that I realised very early on was doing a story about how koreans treat white people better than anyone. I didn't want to be the poster girl for that sort of nonsence as I don't think the respect I gained at my school is merely through skin color. So just be aware that the Korean media does have a tendency to sensationalise something.

I was interviewed and filmed for a local TV station and for KBS and got quite a bit of 'ping' for them - I didn't ask or know it just appeared in my bank account.

But they edited out all the interesting and worthwhile things I said and just kept in the boring, 'heard it before' blah, blah. A bit embarrassing.
