Sunsoo Named Dad

My dad is a Sunsoo.
It's pretty much a known fact.

He's was half of a power-team couple who moved from the sweet rice fields of Busan to America in search of their dreams and a she-gorl to call their own. They raised two lovely ladies and a bodacious young lad.

In his younger days, my father had a ton of friends, was part of a community service gang that cleaned the neighborhood, chased away gang-paes, played soccer and hustled in korean billiards. I have pictures and memories to prove it all. He rode his badass busan bike from house to work to make a living. He started interning at a tailor shop in Korea to earn some money for the family and ended up with a way of means to provide for his family. His stitches became reknown, his cuts famous and his tailoring impeccable. He know owns a store to convey its worth, Kings Tailor & Cleaners (
yahoo).

But now the whole world will know that my dad is a Sunsoo with a capital "S" Sweeeeeeet!!!

Yesterday while I was waiting for my parents to come back home, my mom asked whether or not my sister recorded something. My sister quickly changed the tv (hey! I was watching Scrubs!) to the korean station. Then, bam!!! My dad's on tv as part of the opening scene. It was a tv that they run every Monday around 7am dealing with dad's around K-town. About 3 months ago, some korean tv producer came into the store and wanted to ask some questions. My mom was really busy so she directed him to my dad and they just started asking him a bunch of questions. My dad doesn't even remember what he said. I wish I knew korean better but damn it sounded good. They even had what he said in appearing and disappearing sentences on the screen.

Damn... my dad's a sunsoo.
