I have no ambition at the moment other than to see if I can get good enough at Korean to carry over all of my English personality, and thus attempt to break the "foreigners are funny" TV persona. :P
One idea I have is in the future to teach basic Korean to foreigners doing study abroads. We'll see... 1 person has voted this message useful | |||

Wow your skills in an Asian language are great! Well done!
I can't understand it but is this one of those "make-fun-of-Caucasians-speaking-our-lanugage" type shows that are on Japanese TV a lot? I don't approve of them too much to be honest, although I guess we've had plenty of jokes at their expense and it's all in friendly spirit. Or is it a promotion of your university to Korean students? 1 person has voted this message useful | |||

No cordelia, it's not one of those shows. It's one where Korean students get to promote their university, and since qklilx was in that Korean university as an exchange student, he decided to take part in the contest.

There are now annotations on the video so anyone who doesn't know Korean but can read English can find out what was being said. Note there was one line I didn't understand and I didn't bother translating some of the Korean subtitles because it was basically a repetition of what was being said. Plus I was lazy.
Sorry Boom for making fun of your English. :P 1 person has voted this message useful | |||

I liked the video. You did a good job especially in front of such a large crowd in a foreign land.
Did something get lost in the translation? I don't see why "trashed" is a bad word. 1 person has voted this message useful | |||
