Korea – KBS Live Broadcast – Pete’s Wearing My Shirt

kbs_video-shoot

The following 6 videos make up the KBS Live Broadcast show where adoptees are interviewed and share their experiences on live TV in Korea. Entire segment is almost an hour long.

The effort is to share about their lives as well as make an attempt to reach their birth parents through the show.  2 of the adoptees on the trip had actual call-ins from relatives…!  It was insane.

A pre-recorded segment of Pete and I is on the 3rd vid, around the 6:10 mark… and then Pete rocks it around 9:30 mark on the same vid and into the 4th.

He’s wearing my shirt, since he apparently “ran out”…  …  Yeah, right.

    That is awesome. I guess it never occurred to me just how many people were accompanying you and Pete on the trip. That was cool to see the interviews and your quick bio pics.

    Dude that is so touching, I watched most of vid three, but my internet at home takes forever to buffer a video of that length I will check it out when I get to work, but it's pretty touching. Even though I have no clue what some of them are saying, I can still see how powerful this moment is in so many of their lives, just by reading their reactions and body language. Awesome.

      hehe. he's big, yes. he's never tried acting or modeling… he's too scary.
