"American Kim Kwang Suk" on Star King.

This originally aired on August 16th, 2008, but I just caught it on TV last night. An American, James, did a little set on the popular TV talent show "Star King," singing several Korean songs and playing along on guitar, hence the Kim Kwang Suk comparison. You can watch his performance here, and do watch it, though it takes a few minutes to load. No comment on MC Mong responding to James' self-introduction with a shout of "What's up!"

James, an English teacher at a Seoul high school, also has a YouTube page with a few dozen of his performances; one of his most-viewed is this cover of Kim Kwang Suk's "사랑했지만," with which he also opens the Star King set:



Very good work, sir.
