One Zombie, Sharing Her Love of all Things Hallyu With The World
This it is, guys. The countdown to KCON 2017 NY is over. Tonight the weekend’s festivities kick off with Klub KCON and from there on out, its non-stop Hallyu goodness for the next two days! *does happy dance* To wrap up this little mini-series of mine, I’ve got one more KCON 2017 Special Guest I’d like to introduce to you before the weekend and all of it’s shenanigans hits.

I can’t believe KCON 2017 NY is only 2 days away! It feels like only yesterday I was dreaming of what this year’s convention would be like and now, here I am, just days away from experiencing it for myself. It still feels like a dream but I’m not about to ask anyone to pinch me. I’d like to stay in this dream for as long as I possibly can. To keep the KCON dream going for as long as possible, I’m going to introduce you to another KCON 2017 Special Guest, Chunkeemonkeeato. Woohoo! Continue reading “Getting to Know You: KCON 2017 Special Guest Chunkeemonkeeato”
As the countdown to KCON 2017 NY continues to dwindle, the excitement around this Zombie’s house is increasing exponentially. With so much to look forward to this coming weekend, it’s really hard for me to keep all this excitement contained! (I have a feeling the random squeeing as I go about my daily life might be starting to annoy my kids…) To direct all this energy in a more positive direction I’m going to introduce another amazing KCON 2017 Special Guest to you. Because, you know, that’s way more productive than dancing around the house singing “Cherry Bomb” at the top of my lungs… (*sings* “I’m the biggest hit, I’m the biggest hit on the stage…”) Continue reading “Getting to Know You: KCON 2017 Special Guest Young Ajummah”
As I’m sure you all know, KCON 2017 NY (presented by Toyota) is only a few days away and I’m so flipping excited, I’m finding it a little difficult to calm myself down enough to focus on the tasks at hand. (Which is bad because there are A LOT of things I still need to get done before I head East.) Still, with KCON so close at hand, it thought it might be fun to take a little time to shine the spotlight on some of this year’s special guests. There are so many amazing people who come together to make KCON as awesome as it is which is why I thought it only fitting to introduce a few of them to you. After all, these are the people who work tirelessly, all year long, bringing you all sorts of Hallyu-related content. It seems only right to take a moment to get to know a little about them and maybe glean some KCON-related wisdom from them as well.

A couple of weeks ago, I told you about a new series I’d recently found on New Form’s YouTube channel. The series, entitled Good Face, had a very definite K-drama vibe to it, which hooked me right away, and then Sean Dulake showed up and well… That was it. My fate was sealed. Funny thing is, not long after the pilot episode of Good Face aired, I had a chance to chat with the incredible ladies behind this rather addictive new series, Lina Suh (co-writer, director) and Helen Krieger (co-writer). Together we talked about inspiration, motivation and what it takes to make dreams come true. Continue reading “The Creators of “Good Face” Talk Inspiration, Motivation and Making Dreams Come True”
The world of American Hallyu experts and professionals is a beautiful place, full of amazing and interesting people. People who have dedicated a large portion of their time and energy to delivering unique, original and entertaining content to the world. People whose names you probably recognize but may not know much about. With so many incredible people bringing Hallyu to the world, I thought it might be fun to take some time to sit down and chat with some of them, to give you a chance to get to know a little more about those who help fuel the Hallyu fire that blazes so brightly, here in the States. My very good friend, Lisa Espinosa, from HanCinema and Raine’s Dichotomy (to name a few), is the first of these individuals I’d like to introduce to you. She was gracious enough to take time out of her busy schedule to chat with me for a bit about her work, how she got started in the Hallyu journalism business and what some of her favorite moments have been thus far.

You’d think that waking up before the sun every morning would start to wear on a person but for me it was… Oh who am I trying to kid here? Waking up every morning, hours before everyone else in the house was up, sucked. But it did provide me with some much-needed time to work so… Yay? (Hey, I’m trying to be optimistic here!)

Being a devout St★rlight, Tuesdays have become my favorite day of the week and I’m sure all of my fellow St★rlights know why…
