In honor of his birthday, I present to you: “Car Talk with Sung Kang” directed by my homie, Anson Ho for YOMYOMF (You Offend Me You Offend My Family).
For those of you who don’t know Sung… he is NOT really like this, but I guess that should be obvious. Lol. Always cool when an actor is willing to poke fun at himself.
All I have to say is that I can’t believe I’m missing this!!! It’s gonna be PK’s last year hosting… there are A LOT of people going… and of course, the talent! OMG, THE TALENT.
Very excited for Asians and Asian Americans in entertainment… God is on it. Trust.
Btw, if you’re wondering about my New Year’s resolution about blogging daily… well… obviously, that hasn’t been happening. I have very inconsistent Internet access here in Asia (been traveling a lot more than I planned and I don’t have a laptop). Anyway, I will seriously blog about some of the things that I’ve experienced here when I have more time :]
Within the last 48 hours, a lot more official CPAF PSAs have been released (MUCHO props to the post-production team that’s been working around the clock!). You can check them all out here: http://www.youtube.com/CPAFpsa.
I thought this one with Wong Fu was super cute:
And on a CPAF-unrelated note, this new vid from Wong Fu is freakin’ hilarious…
So I don’t really know what’s going on with Gilbert Arenas, cuz’ I don’t follow sports news… but through the grapevine I heard something about guns and all of a sudden I’m seeing people tweet about him today.
Anyway, it’s Gilbert’s birthday and so here’s a music vid to celebrate! This is Episode 6 of “The Agent Zero Show” (brought to you by Arowana Films. Gotta give it up to Evan Jackson Leong for handlin’ these vids!).
See the rest of the vids on The Agent Zero Show’s YouTube Channel.
P.S. – I just Googled it… and I now know that Arenas has been suspended for bringing guns into the locker room. Yikes. I wonder if “Agent Zero” will have something to say about that.
My buddy Kuang Lee has recently released the first episode of a new comedy web series called “Thug Life.” Check it out… it’s pretty ridiculous:
Here’s the official YouTube channel: http://www.youtube.com/thuglifeshow
First of all, I’m still in Taiwan (wait, did I even mention before that I was gonna be in Asia for 3 weeks? haha). Well, anyway, I’ve been outta the loop this whole time cuz’ I haven’t had time or haven’t had Internet connection for the majority of my trip.
So right now, I have a lil’ chill time and I’ve been doing some catching up with emails and Facebook… and OMG… the entries for KoreAm‘s “Drama Fo’ Yo Mama” contest are hilarious! I haven’t even been able to watch them all yet (mostly cuz’ my Internet connection at my grandma’s is sooo slow)… but so far the ones I’ve seen are pretty awesome. “Gochu” is freakin’ hilarious (and pretty gross, too). It’s well casted with Jun Kim, David Lee Kane (formerly David Lee McGinnis), and the very funny Shane Yoon. It’s also up there in terms of production quality. “Summer Sonata” is great with Randall Park, Vivian Bang, and Hahn Cho. I love the dialogue vs. the subtitles. And I pretty much love everything Randall Park does (video posted below). “Phones Before Flowers”… OMG, PK… that hair and the freakin’ “Verizon”~ haha! The moment between Janet Choi and Roy Choi… CUTE. Puahaha (inside scoop: the two are married in real life). Then there’s freakin’ Charles Kim in the “Omma Dearest” series. LOL. Lovin’ it. I especially loved the argument in part 2 between “Omma” and Lanny Joon’s character. And then part 3?! Haha, omg.
Now I’m kinda bummed I wasn’t around to partake in the contest, but all good. After watching some Taiwanese dramas over here (the ones in Taiwanese not Mandarin)… I’m almost tempted to make a spoof of one of those. The acting is sooo sooo overdramatic (at least from what I’ve seen) and I’ve never heard Taiwanese spoken the way it’s spoken in these dramas… I’d need to learn some Taiwanese first though, haha.
Anyway, you can check out all the entries here and vote for your fave!

So I had first read about Steven Ho on Conan O’Brien from AAM (but for some reason skipped over the video). After seeing bakasan tweet about Steven’s recurring appearances on the show, I had to check it out. Thank God for Hulu!
The above clip is from Steven’s latest appearance this past week. I haven’t laughed so hard in a long time from watching a video online. Conan and Steven have great chemistry together… and I love Conan’s reactions and Steven’s disregard to them! Hahaha. Word on the street (or should I say tweet) is that this is not the last time we’ll be seeing this duo. I freakin’ love it.
I know I’m a bit slow with this, but… White on Rice is now playing in theaters or coming to a theater near you!
Just watched this cute music video of the White on Rice theme song by Goh Nakamura featuring Hiroshi Watanabe and James Kyson Lee:
Which btw, I got to see Goh live last week and ’twas a good time. If you’re in one of the JetBlue cities they’ll be touring, try to catch him and the Invisible Cities!
Anyway, I actually haven’t seen the film yet (I know, shame on me!), but based on the music video, it looks like a lot of fun! I def gotta get my arse out to see it now.

So a few months ago, I met up with Patty at Runyon Canyon to hike and talk about miscellaneous creative stuff. It was then that I first heard about this parody idea of hers… a parody of BoA’s “Eat You Up” music video…
You might have to be Chinese to know that “bao” = bun. And well, the whole parody is about eating up BUNS… pork buns… lots of them… really fast. You’ll even see a buddy of mine in the vid partaking in the BaO action.
Patty, goooood stuff! Over 12,000 hits in just 5 days!
BoA fans are crazy. I know.
More info about the parody here: http://cutebutdeadly.net/bao/
So these days, everyone’s creating their own content and putting it online. Many people put their stuff out there and build followings. Others enter contests and such. Sometimes we’re lucky and we get featured on YouTube ;] Online video is and has been the future. Heck, you may quite possibly see a shift with peachies.net towards that direction…
For now, here are some videos to check out:
“Jill and Gary” from Panic Shower Productions. My buddy Seth Kim is in this one. If you like comedy, Panic Shower may be a good place for you to get a dose of it. Looks like they’re always coming out with content.
Patricio Ginelsa, A.J. Calomay, and the crew have entered the Skinit Spotlight Challenge on YouTube. They are one of 20 finalists! I thought theirs was pretty dang funny. If you like it, rate it, comment, and comment on Skinit’s channel to let ‘em know you dig “BODY PAINT” by kidheroes!
My, oh my… two awesome producers I know (Mynette Louie and Melissa Lee) have their films in the Netflix “Find Your Voice” Film Competition: Eric Lin’s WHY WE PULL THE TRIGGER and Maryam Keshavarz’s CIRCUMSTANCE. They’re two of the 10 semifinalists! I voted for both :X Haha. Take a look at: http://www.netflixfindyourvoice.com
Yay for online video!
