I really got a kick out of the taping of "Sponge" at KBS Studios. We had people from Korea, Russia, Japan, China, Vietnam, and the US who were taped for this show. They are doing a segment on the differences in counting between various countries. While most of the countries I mentioned have a very simply 'raise a finger, lower a finger' method, the Chinese way is completely different and that really was the focus.
Korean was the only language used when giving directions for us; which was not a problem since everyone was in Level 4 of the Korean Language Program at HanYang Univerisity. Oh, my mistake, everyone except for me.
If you have not seen "Lost In Translation" then you need to watch this sequence. If you have seen the movie then you need to watch this scene again:

That scene and the scene where Bob is waiting in the hospital waiting room are my two favorite segments by far. The clip started to go through my mind halfway through the taping because I wasn't completely positive what they wanted me to. Thankfully the other students had a really good grip on English and were able to help me when I didn't understand. Oh yeah, Blooper Reels are called NG. And I left my footprint in the NG world as well by starting to count in Korean instead of English :P
The show is on every Saturday around dinner time, so I will be checking it the next few weeks to see when I will air on "Sponge."
