I'm going to be on TV!

So a few weeks ago my co-teacher Chris told me that his brother was a producer with Arirang TV, and that he needed another foreigner to take around Korea and introduce to traditional foods and traditional place. I leapt at the opportunity and now I'm waiting to see myself on KBS on the 15th of January!

Since the experience is such a rare one I also took the opportunity to write up an honest account of what it was like being a meat-puppet for Korean television! As you will tell, it's swings and roundabouts, but the overall impression was great, and I'm really glad I did the show. 

So, in six installments corresponding to the six days we spent filming, here is the story of what we did. Words are mine, but I owe the photos to the excellent Leigh MacArthur (days 1-4) and David Ly (5-6), except where otherwise noted.

Enjoy.
