KBS World Radio Year-End Party

The KBS World Radio year-end party was held at a casual, but delicious Korean barbeque joint about ten minutes from our office. We packed the place and had a great time eating, drinking, and chatting.

Chris Dykas, English team freelancer who hosts a Korean pop music show, as well as other feature programming. Chris is a Korean-American from Los Angeles, California.

Sophia takes charge with the pork barbeque. The technique involves holding big slabs of meat with the tongs and using kitchen shears to cut small, bite-sized pieces.

Sarah Jun, Korean pop music show host, Chris Dykas, and me.

Chris and Sarah acting like the booze is getting to them. Actually, the English team was quite tame. Some of the green bottles are soju (like gin), but most are clear soda.

Head of the Vietnamese service. She moved around every table, challenging everyone to race her in drinking glasses of beer. She was the life of the party.

Chris and me with the former chief of KBS World Radio. Mr. Park is the Arabic service chief.
