The event that totally changed my life, ROKon Magazine, was just about 20 years ago now. It started when I got an email from the late Annie Shapiro while I was in the Philippines.

It was a long time ago and nobody cares anymore.
I don’t even care that much, other than how much the whole thing changed my life. But, looking back, the thing that I’m still amazed about is that there is a time limit to how long one can stay in South Korea as an expat.
Some people it’s five years, other people it’s 11. But it comes for everyone eventually.
