I am not going to talk about the party I was at last night, except that it was nice to see Sanghoon and Rira again, and good to meet several new people including Dr. Kim Kyu-hyun, and a few others. I wish I’d known they were likely to leave early-ish, so I could have talked to them more… especially since I have a funny vague feeling I was intended to talk to someone I didn’t (much).
One of the “few others” I met was a guy I recognized, but couldn’t place where I recognized him from until someone mentioned Youtube. He’s that guy who posts videos from his daily life in Korea.
Anyway, now he’s posted a video that (briefly) has me in it, too. Do I really sound like that? And look like that? Eh?

Came home to a missed chat message from overseas, from someone I really wanted to talk to… Sigh.
UPDATE: A couple more videos from the subway station and so on:
