#045: Sang Don Park is a talented beatboxer comedian who I met years ago while doing standup comedy. He spent a big chunk of his childhood in America before moving back to Korea.
We talk about…
- Self-dev message of the day: Sang brought up that he recently quit coffee: If you’re addicted to caffeine like I am, I’d encourage anybody to do research into it and consider giving up daily or regular coffee consumption to improve your quality of sleep and lower stress.
- He grew up in Florida and Chicago and he got teased by other kids as is typical for many Asian-Americans.
- How a lot of these experiences gave us thicker skin and how as adults we can laugh about them!
- The reverse culture of moving back to Korea and what it was like adjusting to Korean society
- This happens a lot to people who can’t get a visa. My family may have just as easily not gotten our visas which allowed us a path to naturalization.
- How he’s felt lost at times in his journey as being American or Korean
- How we come to acceptance with our identities
- How our adversities made us better, HARDer people
- The challenges of doing standup comedy in Korean
- The challenges of fitting into Korea as a Korean-American!
