Today, I had a great session with the ROK-U.S.-Japan Trilateral ISC Delegation in DC. I facilitated a 1.5 hour discussion on Gender in Asia and its importance to Trilateral relations. Whip smart students with insightful perspectives and complex questions. I actually had to make the quiz harder!

I was so excited for Six Triple Eight, but it is so bad!

Weird cinematography, bad acting, no emotion to the story… why is it soooo bad? It feels like a 1980s sitcom
