Where is lesson 7?

I know I'm a week behind, but just realized that there seems no more lesson. Or there will be one after pausing a while, maybe?

I'm also waiting for his directing work featuring KevJumba. 

Do take advantage of me!

How did everyone like the latest episode of Acting for Action w/Sung Kang? I'm getting used to with the craziness of each characters in this series. Perhaps Sung's character can be updated later. For example, he turns into more active and hyper scammer instead of melancholic style.

By the way, after this series started, visitors to my blog has increased again. I'm trying to make a public viewable dashboard to explain who those visitors are like which countries they are accessing from, etc. Well, maybe nobody cares about that. lol~

:D

Before Lesson 5, let me share this video. I will write more about Lesson 5 that I watched yesterday.

Sure, I'll do you~

Happy 4th, everyone! So, what did you learn today from Lesson 4? Anything important? I doubt it. :P
By the way, I really like him in red shirt like this. I like him anyway, but I do like him better in red. :D

Cool Channel!

It's so good to see a new episode every Wednesday!

I should start viewing other videos on this channel, too! I don't want to miss any episode where we can see Sung naked like this!  :D

Are we all Jackie Chan generation?

So, I tried learning more about other guys on this series and found the one in the first episode is a famous YouTube star. And he is only 22! A very talented young kid!

I smell Jackie Chan movie series from Ryan's work, too because all of the videos I watched today ended with NG takes. That's very Jackie Chan to me. Maybe I just don't watch enough movies to know others, but to me, that's very Jackie Chan. But the last Jackie Chan movie I watched (no offense to him and his production) was in early 90s'. So, I may be wrong that these Asian film/video makers are still under the influence of Jackie Chan movies. I'm not saying it's good or bad. I suppose "easy to understand" is important. And those videos are well done and attractive. No wonder why they are popular. I just felt that there is no Asian male in public viewable videos who are neither Action star or Comedian.

I know Comedy is the toughest. It's not easy to make the audience laugh. So, I'm not saying these categories, Action and Comedy, are less important than other ones. But you know, if they are so anti-stereo-typical Asian Male in mainstream movies, whey do they stick with that?

It is probably a limitation for YouTube type of distribution and audience. They need to make something that their targeted audience would watch. I don't want to make myself sound negative about what they are doing because they are doing excellent and I love them. I just hoped I can see other kinds of Sung (and other young Asian talents) as well.

And I'm just curious.. can Ryan speak Japanese?

Viva, Rip-Off Business!

Who can be a better loser than this guy? Hahaha~
Don't we love when he is giving us this look? Enjoy Lesson 2! 

 

It's up now!

I really like how it started since I am a true Jackie Chang generation. lol~~ I will save the rest of fun for those who haven't watched this yet. Enjoy~~~

Where is my next chance?

I am still waiting for my chance to see the other movies, Knots. It's too bad that I could not extend my stay in LA to see it which screening was scheduled in the following day. :(  But you know, we all have a limited budget and time. I need to wait to my next chance to see his works including some short films that seem to exist, but I just have no idea how to get to see.

So, I went to Saketini, but...

I finally got this special opportunity to visit Saketini in Brentwood, CA, hoping that I can feel some connection to Sung. But! All I found there is that Sung has sold this business to someone else and no longer involved. :(  Oh well. I guess that explains why I do not see the website for the restaurant any more. So, the present I intended to leave there remained in my handback throughout my trip. I guess I just need to send it to his management office later.

Anyway, it's not easy to bump into a movie start even around Hollywood, I suppose. So, I must understand. I was not that disappointed because I kind of expected this. But it was still good to have a lunch there. And it was very good. I was the only customer there dining in the restaurant though I saw several people came to the restaurant to pick up their order that they probably ordered on line.

The waiter was kind enough for me to find out what's up with Sung. According to him, Sung has bought another restaurant in Santa Monica called "Sugerfish." Since I was going to hang out in Santa Monica in that afternoon, I decided to have my dinner there. It's close to my hotel, too. But the funny thing is, the host in Sugerfish said he has no idea what I am talking about. But he said, there are many people who invest to this business and it is possible that Sung maybe one of them. Hmm.. OK. After all, I guess it's not a good manner to try getting connected to an actor like this as a fan. But I thought it's not unusual that some movie stars running restaurant business, and if you are lucky enough, you may encounter your start there. So, I hope what I'm doing does not sound like sick.

Don't worry. I had several other things to do while I was in LA besides chasing Sung's shadow. I had a pretty good time there. I will find another chance to see him in person in the future.
