Me TV

Click here to download [290MB] and watch 19 minutes of me on TV. Well, not just me, the 6 reporters who were chosen for the first press tour of Seoul. I think the videographer did a splendid job. It is so odd to be back in South Africa and to see, on a computer, me and the rest scurrying around - apparently still in Seoul.

If you would like the same opportunity, read below:

Seoul Metropolitan Government is offering you a great opportunity to have a close look at the newly growing city, Seoul. As an organizer of this event, Seoul Selection is inviting established as well as freelancing journalists or reporters to the great city of Seoul.

The tour will last for one week, Monday to Friday, during which participants will be given fascinating opportunities to explore Seoul. From the most popular tourist attractions to the most authentic places, enjoy the excellent group tour given by a great team of Seoul Selection as well as two days of individual interviews to experience Seoul.

Especially for those whose interest has been staying in Korea, this will be the best chance to look around the soft Seoul.

Me TV

It's very unlikely that too many people were even up at 7:10am on Sunday. Thank goodness for that. Although I thought the piece was produced well, my stomach turned when I saw the chubby, gleaming headed, nasal sounding me. It's easy to criticise, isn't it, from the comfort of your own home. I've seen people watching Miss Universe or some or other beauty pageant, and grandly go: "She's hot. She's not." Well, betcha they're a damn sight prettier than you on TV.

So it's a good thing to see yourself on the box, or in the box. I think I need to start disciplining the way I speak, because I just mumble along with very little extra effort. It sounds terrible! And since I'm not really going to do anything about my bald pate, what I can do is re-develop the bronzed adonis body I was once blessed with (or something like that).

But something has got to change, and I'm thinking it has to be me.

Right, and that said I am now going to turn off my computer, pack away my papers, grab my keys and jump into the pool. At least 1km coming up...
