Now, I'm going to introduce another Korean guy in New Zealand who is becoming famous for what he has done. Thanks to one of my iReflect classmates, I could find this wonderful guitar performance video.
This YouTube video clip shows 24-year-old Korean man named Jeong-Hyun Lim playing electronic guitar. The Korean, who was born in Seoul, Korea, started studying in New Zealand as a secondary student and currently studying in Auckland University. After uploading his electronic guitar playing video on You Tube site, he has become very popular among lots of people around the world. Also, he has been introduced on ‘New York Times’, ‘CNN’ and the New Zealand’s ‘Campbell Live’ etc. (You can watch those interviews under the 'Video' on the website)
I’m sure that everyone, who has seen this video, must think that his performance is really great and impressive. Of course I feel the same way. This is seriously cool. Like I mentioned before while introducing the Korean golfer, it’s amazing that he’s become known to many people around the world by being introducing on the world-famous media such as CNN, New York Times, which means the country, Korea might become known to the world at the same time since he is from Korea. After seeing his performance, I’ve realised that there are so many talented people in Korea. There are so many great Korean people out there in the world, glorifying the name of our country. I'm so proud of them and myself to be a part of Korea.

I AM DAVID ＆ WELCOME TO MY BLOG!
Hello everyone ^-^
I AM DAVID ＆ WELCOME TO MY BLOG!
what have you come to NZ for?!
My reflection
What I've learnt from this e-port-folio is ...
First of all, I’d like to say that I enjoyed myself, working on this e-portfolio project during the iReflect course with the topic ‘Korean immigrations to New Zealand’ and I hope my e-portfolio could be useful or rather interesting for my audiences (especially Korean New Zealanders and other immigrants) to look at. Of course it's been really useful for myself.
The reason I’ve chosen the topic ‘Korean migrations in New Zealand’ is because, today, there are a considerable number of Korean immigrations to NZ thus I thought it might be worth having a look at it. Unlike the old times, Korean immigrations to other countries have become really common occurrences. When I first came to New Zealand which was March 2006, I was very surprised or rather disappointed because so many Koreans were living in this country already. It’s funny but I felt like I was living in another Korea. There are several reasons for Korean immigration to NZ but the main reason for them is to get better or less-pressure education in English-speaking countries such as Canada, America and New Zealand etc. That's also the reason why I'm here in NZ. The life in NZ can be stressful for me to live with because there is no family and friends around me but occasionally I think it's really good to live in a new life which many people can not experience. What I'm trying to say is that I'm one of lucky people because I get this special opportunity.
This e-portfolio can be used among anyone, particularly immigrants in NZ who are interested in such topics that I have been discussing. In my blog, we can discuss or talk about things such as negative aspects migrations could face and solutions for it and special events happening around migration people in NZ. Any interesting topic can be brought up. The only limitation, by the way, is that the audiences may not be various since it is all about migrations in NZ. While working on the e-portfolio, I've learnt quite a lot of things and aspects about New Zealand and Korea. I really hope this work has been very successful thus can be helpful for the future of my life in New Zealand.

i wish I can see his face.
kkkkkkk it's amazing how koreans are achieving their goals inspite of cultural difference while they adapt to New Zealand lifestyle.
Lol, if you really want to see him or his performance, go to the
website "www.funtwo.us" through the page i've posted.
um.. well, your comment made me think that... whether or not their achievements have anything to do with the cultural difference. I mean, I think what they achieved has got nothing to do with New Zealand lifestyle. please let me know what you think.
