Hi, everybody,

I’m leaving for Boston soon this morning.
One of my long time blog readers, my website supporter, and Harvard film student Paul Whang invited me to act in his film. I met Paul about 1½ years ago at my LA meetup. He volunteered to be my cameraman at that time.

Recently I got an email from him. He asked  if I’d ever considered acting! He said Harvard film students in their 4th year traditionally make a short movie for their final. The title of his movie is “Dakbokkeumtang” (Korean spicy chicken dish).  : )

“There is a character in the movie who is a Korean old woman starting to lose her memory!”  He said: “..I think you would be perfect for the role!” Haha!

I answered, “Sure, cool!”

So this morning I’m going to Boston and will come back tomorrow night.

Who said friends that you meet on the internet can’t be your real friends! I like to support Paul as he did to me! Besides, acting as a very old and unfashionable woman sounds like too much fun! : )

I like to let you know this exciting news! I’ll tell you about the filming and the movie when I get back!

    I hope the movie will be available online when it’s finished… or maybe we’ll see Maangchi at the next film festival! :)

    Oh my goodness! It’s too bad you’re not in town longer, it would be fun to meet. I’ve really enjoyed making your recipes at home! Good luck with the filming!
