Good News! KoreanOvernight Social Network is Upgraded! Welcome to the new http://daoian.com

OKAY, SO IMPATIENT MAYBE A GOOD ADJECTIVE TO DESCRIBE THIS NEWEST POST, BUT IMPATIENT SO BE IT! I'M LOOKING FOR ANY ADVICE ON THIS MATTER: I NEED TO ASSOCIATE WITH SOME KOREANS OR PEOPLE THAT SPEAK KOREAN SO THAT I CAN PRACTICE AND IMPROVE MY LANGUAGE SKILLS! HOWEVER, IT HAS BEEN A SLOW START FOR ME! DOES ANYONE HAVE ANY ADVICE ON HOW TO MAKE FRIENDS WITH SOMEONE FAST? I'M HERE ON THIS SITE AND OTHERS INTRODUCING MYSELF BUT IT SEEMS TO BE AT A SNAIL'S PASTE! AND IN PERSON -I HAVEN'T YET FIGURE OUT HOW TO JUST APPROACH A STRANGER, INTRODUCE MYSELF, AND TELL THEM THAT I WANT TO HANG-OUT WITH THEM SO I CAN IMPROVE MY UNDERSTANDING OF THE LANGUAGE (ALTHOUGH THE MORE DESPERATE I GET THE CLOSER I AM TO JUST DOING THAT).

THANKS! JOSEPH!

I NEED MANY WAYS THAT I CAN PRATICE MY KOREAN WHEN I CAN'T GO TO CLASS!!

okay, if you don't know by now -i'm a huge kpop fan! i even think i should be one (i would be an awesome kpop idol) hence one of the reasons why i am so interested in korean culture. so, i want to share with you a site that i check everyday (yes, every single day) that has up-to-the-second info on all things kpop. allkpop.com. if you haven't already, check it out!

there is also omgkpop. (i don't check that one anymore because i was a writer for that site and after using most of my articles, they fired me with no real reason other than they no loner need my services. so yes i am a little bitter about that!)

Check out this kendo (Japanese sword fighting) video I made last summer.

Hallo everybody! As you might have seen I am really passionate about breakdancing in general and since Korea arrived not only once but twice 1st at the world breakdance championship (I bet that most of you did not know that ;P ) I would like to share this video with you... it's one of my favourites =)

I have the really fun job of connecting smart people with successful people.

You pick who is who... All I know is that I recommend that you friend the following people:

1. NadiaDaeng: http://koreanovernight.com/friends/pg/profile/NadiaDaeng
She is a UFC PR/Marketing Genius from Singapore and is just super honest when she's venting about some jerk girl at her job.

2. OKGOSU: http://koreanovernight.com/friends/pg/profile/okgosu
He is a technology writer and a well know author in Seoul. I recommend that if you ever go to seoul... you connect with OKGOSU. He is high society.

3. HyunWoo: http://koreanovernight.com/friends/pg/profile/kangken
HyunWoo is a Young Samurai. I'm not kidding. He is faster than most any Japanese Samurai master and more precise. He has to be. He is being trained by the Grand Master of the MuGaiRyu Samurai Clan directly. And he is in UW headed to Columbia University in NYC.

4. Natasha... http://koreanovernight.com/friends/pg/profile/Koreangirl
Natasha is probably very stubborn. I put an ad out for a model and she was one of a few hundred submissions. She stood out even by her subject line. I asked for her to SELF shoot (which models HATE) and she did it.. .

Unfortunately, it wasn't what I had in mind. So I told her I'd love the same thing but about the size of half a sheet of paper... so she sent me a whole new series of photos:

This is when I got really specific and crossed my fingers hoping she wouldn't give up... She sent me an email back saying, "I'm determined to get it right!"

Being Korean. She did. The very next series of shots produced:

So here's me saying that if anyone wants a spokesperson / model who does NOT give up and adapts rapidly... I'm glad natasha is here at Koreanovernight.com

Lastly... I want all of you to meet

5. TaeMinnie: http://koreanovernight.com/friends/pg/profile/Taeminnie
For having just joined... she is one of the most active users! Get to know her... and add her as a FRIEND!

PS... One realllly cool part about this site that you CANT DO with faceboook or myspace is that you can TAG SEARCH for anybody... for instance... if you are a girl and want to meet another female travel partner to singapore, you can simply click the FEMALE tag in your own profile to see who else comes up.

If you are a writer and need a korean speaking photographer, just tag search "Occupation" for photographer. It's all really cool stuff. Meet the people YOU WANT. And know that everyone already knows someone here PERSONALLY. Face to face.

... that korean people actually have things that are totally different than americans???

And WOW... I downed soooo many of these my fingers smelled like shrimp for days:

Oh, Wait... thats the wrong picture!?!?!

Dale was right on the money. Nothing he said was off target or ineffective. But, everything he said, including "make others look good," and "give others credit for your successes" was from a by-gone era. It was all from 100 years ago.

Heck, they didn't even have paper back then.

If you were to try to apply his techniques today, would you even know which button to push on Twitter? Would you even know how to set up a Youtube fan page that links to your Youtube. And ultimately, would you know how to convince the most influential people in the room (the whole world is that room) to in-turn influence their devotees to do what you want them to do totally online in your boxers and beater?

You will now.
