i love when eric has more serious episodes. having guests like dr. kim and senator andy kim is a great and responsible use of the platform, i wish more celebrities would use theirs like eric has lately.

[@M_Carter_]

man, eric nam is such an intelligent and thoughtful guy who's clearly quite passionate about many important causes. i'm glad he gets to indulge this side of himself here instead of being stuck as the 'nation's boyfriend' on korean tv and constantly having to bend over backwards in order to not accidentally offend the korean general public like many foreign-born celebrities find themselves doing over there

[@bonakim6869]

I can see Eric as a global ambassador for a NGO when he is ready.

The best way to end a stressful school day is listening to dive

[@vinavanessaa]

Not gonna lie, im so mesmerized by the way Eric communicates with others. I'm totally agree with Dr. Jim, Eric has a very special gift👏🏻

[@jazzybeardancer]

Honestly who doesn’t Eric know? I’m always so grateful for seeing Asians succeeding, especially seeing faces in public health who are talking about such complex, deep, timely and relevant topics!

[@globalnamnation2903]

Two amazing persons exchanging compliments with each other. Such a great way to start the year! Thank you, Dive. (Btw, Eric looks so freaking good with that hairstyle!!!!!!)

[@Jennifer-un3xi]

[@shelovestulipss]

That inner side of political science and international studies grad eric shone so much throughout this episode that I feel levitated.

[@mysun810]

I’m so glad Eric introduced him on his podcasts which young and young adult people listen from all over the world. Thank you Eric and team!

[@michelle0878]

Thank you Dr Jim Yong Kim. I live in Los Angeles and I am so great full that you are helping us with the covid mess we’ve gotten ourselves into. People just aren’t wearing masks and social distancing. It’s gotten so bad here. All of our hospitals are full. We need all the help we can get and I am so great full. Thank you.

[@lyka9973]

im super blessed listening to these 2 intellectual persons

[@luisam.7552]

Dr Jim Yong Kim and the never ending battle of compliments with Eric Nam thats what this episode should have been named lol, both extreme inspirational

[@jubilation97]

Was i the only one getting emotional when Dr Kim praised Eric's gift for communication? ngl it took me a while to click because of the length of the video :P but as one of those youths who spends a lot of time on kpop stuff, thank you for bridging the gap to global citizenry xD it was more than a worthwhile listen, thank you for this great conversation! also am definitely gonna check out bending the arc when i have time! also much respect for dr kim (and other such leaders) for taking those giant steps to make the world a better place (on behalf of the numerous small fry ie me)

[@vw2770]

This is a very deep mind opening conversation. Great job Eric! Dr. Kim is on to something big. Besides a great singer that you are Eric you have a very unique gift of making people feel connected.

[@bee-sl2vt]

Dr. Kim is lovely!! It's a huge pleasuring hearing him speak about his life and his work. This ep is one for us policy nerds! Thanks, Eric

[@spidermonkaew588]

To be honest, I cry every time when I listen to something very inspirational and listening to this? This changed my perspective in such many ways that I just wanna be as inspirational as you guys are. Eric and Dr. Jim Kim, I think you guys are incredibly dope!!❤️

[@user-wv8jq7mf2d]

I’ve never expected this quality of interview on this channel. I’ve never heard of this guy. Eric, you are gonna do crazy dope things with your K-pop background, aren’t you? I am so amazed and motivated. Thank you. 앗, 한국 넷플릭스에는 Bending the arc 없네요. 아쉽.

[@Brianmsw]

If you type "벤딩 디 아크" in Korean on Netflix, you will find it. Enjoy! It is inspiring and touching. 한글로 벤딩 디 아크 쳐보세요~~

[@nursyuhadaaina1921]

I just realize that eric nam looks like the main lead from mr queen kim jung hyun...

[@morninglight92]

He also makes me think of the actor Kim Min Gyu (who played, among other projects, in Because This Is My First Life)

[@nursyuhadaaina1921]
