Happy Together - Korean Dream Special with Sam Hammington, Fabien & more! (2014.05.29)

[@BlankCanvas88]

Dang, I'm so impressed by Sam Otswiri! He's like a genius! He's so kind & well-mannered, a good dancer, rapper, athlete, speaks 4 languages fluently, and he's handsome to boot. Is he human?

[@katieb4776]

Sam Hammington as in the white Sam?

[@rejeanl6291]

It's Otswiri Sam. Sam is his last name.

[@jeffersonbezerrachaves8152]

+Rejean Lutan no.

[@jeffersonbezerrachaves8152]

+Rejean Lutan . "Sam" is abbreviation for Samuel, which is your first name.

[@joymungai3654]

It's a given for most Africans that we speak more than 2 or 3 languages. I mean, you have your national language, mother tongue, English, and if you come from an intertribal family, an extra one. Then you have the others that you learn.

[@ilmusicx3]

idc, idc, I just love seeing black people more and more in Korean media. I'm black and I just hope that they don't take what they see in the international media to heart. We're not all criminals, thugs, and our skin is beautiful.

[@therinajournal]

You should definitely watch Abnormal Summit, Sam Okyere appears there as a fixed member

[@fentyreligion]

+ilmusicx3 or watch moorim school, I love his character there ^^

[@김원준-f3t]

Even though Korea was isolated from foreigners. I can say with confidence that korea is less full of stereotypes than western countries. It's just what education does.

[@brycego6359]

+김원준 Agree with you. I never felt any stereotypes towards me when I was in Korea

[@unknownknown2078]

Same for brown people tbh, let's hope for them to be more accepted there.

[@AngieMahalKitaLa]

The ignorance and racism was tooo real with Myung Soo lol I really applaud the way Sam handled it very mature I liked the way they interact with each other I guess since they are all good friends but they all looked out fro each other lol it was nice

[@sophiebeaumont9608]

Where was the racism? How about when Sam said he didn't even think Korean people had jeans?

[@miyashita291]

So true girl! Myung Soo was being ignorant and rude all the time. Gosh some people really don't know much about other country's..just their own, I feel bad for Sam but he was so mature!! Seriously if I was there I would feel embarrassed for the stupidness of Myungsoo .. does he really not know anything about Ghana??

[@natastarz5]

Sophie Beaumont That was because he saw Korean wear Hanbok in the drama. Myung Soo on the other hand asked Sam if his people hunt and fish in their homeland was ignorance.

[@TheRandomChinwe]

Sophie Beaumont hey look it's you again lol

[@realmnthrwknives]

natastarz5 BOTH were ignorant tbh. Myungsoo's was just worse.

[@kingtutt880]

Seeing a black guy speak Korean so fluently just puts a smile to my face. I know, weird, but whatever.

[@bankaispirits]

naw it's not, your happy the a black in Korea is showing they're asses off 😉 and not put into those stereotypes everyone thinks blacks are

[@pinraspberry7768]

ME TOO

[@DivinexSerenity]

That Myung Soo guy was being a bit racist and I'm glad Yoo Jae Suk corrected him several times(definitely why he's the Nation's favorite MC). Even though this is a comedic variety show, using racist jokes as humor isn't right. I'm glad Sam Otswiri took it lightly and went with the flow, laughing. :)

[@fanfare78]

Agree Never like MS I think he will die of hunger if left behind in Ghana for a day

[@fanfare78]

Agree Never like MS I think he will die of hunger if left behind in Ghana for a day

[@FeelinGoode]

I agree. Myungsoo goes back to his hole when Jaesuk speaks to him.

[@suklaaleivos]

After watching happy together 4-5 years I have notice that Myung soo is just ass to all his guest. He says stupid jokes to everyone but actually I think its good that he said some of those things he said because there are many korean who believe what he said about afrika is correct. MC yoon is amazing. I love him even more now :) And Kang Hodong is my another fav MC. Also I'm african and if I were in that show i would had teach muyng soo how to behave :)

[@sophiebeaumont9608]

It's just a joke and Sam made jokes about Korea too. I bet you haven't seen Infinity Challenge ep 152 where Jaesuk dresses up as an 'Arab'.

[@liham.608]

bruh when Sam started speaking lol. I feel so proud seeing a fellow ghanaian. I wanna travel to Korea too

[@ethela.6036]

AAAAA. I feel you sis

[@marianamoah9972]

Same here

[@marthabaharu6183]

They are very racist

[@amipop1108]

Myungsoo was kinda pissing me off in this episode. When Fabien told him off because of his pickiness with the food, I was like: Yessss.

[@yeralmuzika]

I hope to be fluent in Korean one day like these foreigners.... It's a dream I can count on and plan to succeed :)

[@kokuyosekihaiwado8561]

How is it going??

[@yeralmuzika]

+Kokuyoseki Haiwado slow process, takes a lot of time for me but I have learned a lot since the last time I watched this.

[@yeralmuzika]

+Kokuyoseki Haiwado oh and thank you for asking :D

[@yeralmuzika]

***** Thank youuuu :)

[@sonammmz]

u got it man it takes time

[@poofyowl]

Otswiri and Fabien are a fabulous duo. Those two were the highlight of the show for me!

[@diamcole]

I don't know why I feel so proud of these people haha. It's so nice to see them representing their countries and doing so in such an articulate and intelligent way. The feels. ♥

[@friedfishy]

When I saw that the ep had all-non-Korean guests, I thought it would be incredibly awkward. I only knew Robert Holley and Sam Hammington among them and thought the other two were seat fillers who would blush and stammer through the whole thing. Glad to find out I was very wrong... everybody was hilarious and natural! Even Myung Soo's unintentionally racist jokes are more funny than offensive. :P And Sam Otswiri has such a lovely, infectious laugh. Thanks, KBS!

[@sunny_sunshine0411]

yeah. At least, I find MuyngSoo's jokes ain't offended at all. good laughs!

[@alexistrbl6047]

When Sam otswiri got up to dance I was wondering what dance it was going to be but then AZONTO started playing and I was like "OMG this is my jam!!"

[@ederlinerosenberg6813]

+Addisynryan Roberts when does he dance to azonto? i can't find it

[@shallowlands2243]

Ghana doesn't have one language. We have over 78 tribal languages plus English, Chinese, Arabic and French(depending on where you live).

[@Dashomin]

woah really? Ghana also have chines language included?

[@vanessavenicelooms6534]

Exactly i hate it when i have to tell people we have more than 5 languages, people always think i speak French and I'm just like no.

[@shallowlands2243]

+blue heart Yeah, there are a lot of Chinese now in Ghana and on the continent. And there are a lot of Chinese Ghanaian mixed children as well.

[@shallowlands2243]

Vanessa, it is irritating. Or how people ask why I speak such good English and use the British spelling or words for certain things. But it also depends on where you live in Ghana(Brong Ahafo region to be specific and Dormaa-where I come from-has way more French speakers as it's closer to Ivory Coast)

[@maryammohammed4762]

Obe T. Woow i didn't know there many Ghanaians who watch this

[@chargi717]

LOL I'd never thought I'd see the day where the Azonto would be done on a Korean television show.

[@koweeaboo]

Lol ikr! Haha it's great. I love to see people the most unexpected cultures come together and spread the love.

[@cocoralcara]

Otswiri is really really cute! As is Fabien!

[@GlamorGrl00001]

this makes me so envious I want to learn korean soooo bad and go visit there.......ughhhh

[@alucardsing9760]

[@GlamorGrl00001]

Its hard because I have no one who speaks it arround me I know some but not nearly enough..

[@annajones3904]

At first I loved Fabien's looks, but then Sam Otswiri's personality killed me!

You should watch ep 202 of running man those two are there and you get to see more of Fabien hes so funny :) you know unless you already watched it cx

[@danigarcia162]

Yeah! No problem :) *****

[@alzatecleotildenealega9058]

thanks Dani ill watch it :)

[@drsnowmon]

wth is up with these comments about "turning against your own homeland?" At which point in this episode do they belittle their own country? If they were not proud of their country would they be speaking and rapping in your own language and showing your own traditional folk dance in front of camera that's viewed by millions of Koreans? I don't understand these weird people leaving strange comments....

Honestly, even if they'd dislike their own country, it's no one else's but their own business. And it wouldn't make them "betrayers" or bad people. In my country, people who even migrate are called betrayers - that's such a backward, narrow, close-minded and unfounded view... apparently shared world-wide.

[@0man_]

Exactly what I wanted to say. So many stupid comments.. what a shame. Most important thing is that they like and respect Korea, not giving a shit to their own countries. None of your business idiots.

[@baonguyenle5666]

nice say.... totally agree with u .... it's their own business

[@TheRandomChinwe]

only thing i have to say is Sam's comment about Ghanaian food not being spicy left pretty much anyone who's ever tasted Ghanaian or just African food is generally very confused

[@cumensu]

***** , traditional folk dance? JaJaJa. It's a modern dance. The equivalent of that misnomer is like calling Kpop dance moves traditional Korean folk dance.

[@kajitani13]

That french guy is so sweet and very polite 😍

[@kizukeyos]

I'm so happy more african people on korean tv pls omfg

[@107tdubs]

I'm glad they're getting more exposure to foreigners (even if these people are basically korean citizens now -__-) but it's a good thing for Korea! I don't think they knew that Ghana is actually one of the wealthiest African countries... but besides some of the ignorant and unnecessary comments, it was really nice to watch :)

[@golbinnom]

Very interesting and funny episode, love the guests!

[@Hana-li8zf]

The show was really funny and the guests too :) but I'm disappointed about the ignorant comments they made about the foreigners' countries/cultures. Even tho in Korea there are not many guys from Ghana,or another country,so korean people don't know much about theur culture,could you ever think that in Ghana they walk around naked? Nobody seems to see how stupid and rude those comments are...

[@dareangel96]

I also found it rude I I think that he was just making a joke in response to him saying he didn't think Koreans wear pants. He was just playing off stereotypes as a way to "get back" at the his past ignorance towards Korea which in my opinion was childish but not that big of a deal if you didn't mean anything more than a joke

[@Hana-li8zf]

+Blairwitchgroupproject yeah but it wasn't just that..all their jokes didn't feel like jokes..I don't know,it's a delicate thing,especially in Korea,to joke about

[@Manyangles]

stereotypes

[@joon7960]

+Hana they r just goofing around making jokes don't take it seriously on things like do people in ghana walk around naked as native i know when they are being racist or making stereo typical judgement its a light joke lots of korean people do that esp on TV , just as we don't take it offensive when some people are like where is korea? or making jokes about squinty eyes its their sense of humour

[@Hana-li8zf]

joon the "squinty eyes" jokes are racist jokes and rude .-. In the TV show they were joking around,of course,they didn't want to offend anyone,but those jokes also come from wrong prejudices and stereotypes

[@Noenonoeno]

I SAW SAM OTSWIRI ON HELLO COUNSELOR!

[@irma11189]

허경환 is always my favorite :3 but otswiri marry me!!!

[@sylviamanandhar8155]

this was the first time I watched happy together & it was amazinggg!

[@TendouJuka]

I hesitate to watch at first after seeing the guest list because I didn't know the other two and I thought there would be an awkward moment. Later then I don't even realize that they are already going to cafeteria. There is no single boring moment. This is a great episode to watch. Love all the guests. They are very entertaining and interesting. I laugh to the end.

[@gks9149]

Im black but i didnt feel that their commemts were racist they were just ignorant, the MEDIA ALWAYS shows the POOR AND BAD side of africa, like kids dying from hunger and diseases.

[@ottokefilms]

So Happy this is back! And..hmm...I know lots of people are saying Myung Soo is racist, but I have to say...and I don't mean anything bad by this, but that's how alot of Koreans (especially the older ones) are. It's not that they are racist, they just are ignorant. Most of the older Koreans do not travel as much, and they are not exposed to foreigners or their cultures. Actually it's great that these foreigners are gaining such love and popularity in Korea because it shows how Korea as a whole is becoming more open-minded and accepting of foreign cultures.

[@bangbangtangahwei]

Yeah I don't see him as racist just ignorant (probably from watching TV)

[@4minute60]

I loved this episode so much,especially because there were foreigners who spoke fluent Korean and didn't make it awkward,now they make me want to visit or live in Korea.I think I just might,The SAMs are so funny,along with Robert,I like them the best.Myungsoo's ignorant comments though,I'll give you a free pass since you don't seem to know much.Episode was fun,loved it!

[@renarrow8892]

Sam Okwiri was dancing to azonto, i swear that song was Africa's Gangnam style, whenever that song came on in 2013/2014 everyone would whip out those same moves.....i know and i'm freaking kenyan...

[@channiehae]

Sometimes I get skeptical about watching these type of episodes with foreigners because I know there'll be some form of racism here and there. And I was right.

[@sophiebeaumont9608]

Where was the racism, when Sam was surprised Korean people had jeans?

[@channiehae]

Sophie Beaumont The fact that Myungsoo thought Sam was living in great poverty when he was living in Ghana just because he said he liked living in Korea more.

[@sophiebeaumont9608]

***** You think that's racism? So then Sam is racist for his preconceptions of Korea too then yes?

[@channiehae]

Did I say there wasn't? It was just an example. If you read my comment above again, I'm talking about the racism in general.

[@davodiank]

Western ideals of your so called racism (occidentalism) don't apply in such media format for most Asian countries. It's rather a common ignorance due to lack of exposure as Korea was isolated for such a long period of time to foreigners.

Snobbish lots! I will have Fabian's dish for breakfast Sam's for lunch Robert's for dinner and Otswiri's as deserts, enjoyed with a glass of wine Its late night cafeteria, it should be simple easy to cook food and snob MS wants steak? You guys want foreigners on the show but cannot accept foreign/fusion food? Applaud Fabian for telling snob MS to collect his pay and go France direct to eat French food. PD should get your people to the correct perspective. I think they have gone too long in the show that they may forget the main criteria/perspective of the show!!!

[@NaruDIANime]

Olympia Epirus you're sooo right, this time I didn't like MS because his "jokes"about ghana , I thought he was disrespectful towards the guests. About the food: It has to be an easy and cheap dish... considering you know how to cook it, and you have the ingredients... so I really applauded to Fabian!!

[@sophiebeaumont9608]

I think this show went very well, I'm glad to see Korea opening up to foreigners and they chose good people to represent that (well they could have been better chefs but hey XD). It's also nice to see that at 49:52 the TV show apologized for the MC Myungsoo's ignorance but aside form his comments it was an enjoyable episode.

Awww man ~~ To me this episode is so funny ~~~ Even though they are foreigners, their korean language and culture command are almost as good as the local koreans. And they even know how to entertain in Korean broadcast.

[@utena90210]

I don't think they were trying to be racist. This was pure ignorance. Korea is still getting use to the whole foreigners thing. So it very possible some of the stuff being said wasn't out of hate and Racism but ignorance. And the guest handled it well. Idk I think KBS should do this again! Maybe the more foreign guest they have and the more they can all sit and get to know each other and interact with each other might put a stop to some of the ignorance.

[@jocelynj4049]

Sorry I don't understand what people talking about the "ignorance" stuff?? Is it because some of the words that are spoken rudely??

[@utena90210]

Yes pretty much. Like stuff you would no better then to say to someone in the US because It could be seen as Racist they don't really see in Korea because they aren't exposed to Foreigners. They are just getting used to it. So pretty much some of the Host/MC's were saying things to the guest that were pretty culturally insensitive.

[@jocelynj4049]

I don't see any ignorance in this conversation :/ I mean we can't just assume everyone knows about foreigners. This is a show after all, meaning even though the MCs probably already know about what they were asking for they still have to ask and broadcast it so us as audience would be more interested and get into it to watch. Especially for people who are innocence and didn't know a thing about these people, obviously they would like to know. It's not the MCs fault, at the end it depends on the guests who were answering questions. They have to choose their words carefully and think beforehand. I know it is a pity that the majority of them show lack of interest with their own country but it's their opinion and we have to respect it. I do hope they say more optimistic things about their countries but what can I say? I think they fell in love with Korea. Border line, I enjoy this show. That what matters for me :)

Yanna Bear South Africa has indigenous tribes with naked people, but its sooooo rare, like not even 1%. And animals are in reserves, not with people, just for you guys' information. However, its just generalisation, and to be fair, you will find tons of westerners who think all Asians eat dog, and Psy is their music god. If you dont take interest in other cultures, there is no reason you should know otherwise.

Yanna Bear the first part < not the whole thing, relax bro :)

I hate when people wants to turn a blind eye on racism when it doesn't affect them. I think Sam part was really ignorance and that's why he looked up on the computer and he believed Korea was like this because of a Korean show and clearly the other man was a backlash and trying to hurt Sam by being racist when sam wasn't coming from that place. Like I said Korea May be homogenous but bitch this ain't the 18th century we have computers and I know they have black artist that come to Korea to do shows and they have American bases in Korea plus if they know how white people look and they invite them on shows why can't they do the same for other ethnicities

[@nalinlee4688]

“was backlash and clearly trying to hurt Sam by being racist...” No. As someone who is abundantly familiar with both this comedian’s style and Korean joking culture, you’re reaching waaaaaaay too far. I swear on my life. Just no.

It's nice to see thaat sam introduced the azonto dance to them on happy together. It's really popular in Africa, the west especially. I couldn't help but smile and dance along as he danced azonto. Go Go sam!!

[@cfar777]

So jealous of these guys. Wish I could speak Korean fluently!

[@zoukdanser]

Omg I'm so proud of them !

[@sarafarias8504]

Omg! Fabien Yoon came out in Korean shows I Miss you, Secret Garden, Lie To Me, The King 2 hearts, even in Dr.Jin. Wow I didn't notice him in any of it I have to watch them again.

[@ILOVEScreamo96]

Im Ghana and Im so happy to see Sam representing us and showing them Azonto!! loool Btw, when he spoke Twi, the main language in Ghana and one of many 'native languages', he basically said: "Ive come so I am greeting you right now that we are sitting here...you don't understand what I'm saying right now" Ghanaians don't speak French, we were colonised by the British...Idk why he said that tbh! Love the multiculturalism!

[@insaneLALA]

sam otswiri is so precious.

[@iekminamie]

I love this episode..and I like Sam Ostwiri and Fabien so much :)

[@kyl6864]

EYK needs to watch this episode.

[@NoniAyannaGobernRoach]

I loved it. Made me want to take a trip to South Korea myself. Loved how it broke down stereotypes and showed ppl just hanging out in spite of their differences

[@JJ-yu6og]

Fabien's Korean pronunciation is soooo good.

[@piinkfiiend98]

Omg repping Ghana love him already!!

[@MissBreezy812]

Honestly I didn't really find this episode so racist. Park Myungsoo was only joking around since Sam and Otswiri were saying about how they thought of Koreans. Otswiri was pretty cool about everything though and laughed it out :) Park Myungsoo should watch what he says a little bit though and know that many foreigners watch this show and can get really offended... Sam Ham is the coolest though, he seems really chill and nice :D Love him in Real Men too. It was mostly saying stereotypes which mostly everyone in every race tend to have.

[@TheRandomChinwe]

so you think that "We think Ghanaians walk around naked" "With Lions as pets" "No tigers roaming your land?" you agree with these statements?

[@sailormood]

***** i feel like people are just making excuses at this point instead of being honest. just like in korean culture there are things that would be seen as offensive, we have things that are offensive. those are all weak stereotypes and idk why people are pretending it's ok because of ignorance. i've never been to ghana, but i also don't think they have lions as pets. i'm just as foreign to ghanaian culture as the people on this show, but i don't subscribe to stereotypes instead of paying attention to the complexity of real people and i make no excuses for myself lol

[@bigbangmm]

***** i think Myungsoo said that just to be funny and also because Sam said that because of dramas he thought Koreans wore Hanbok... People, am black and i laughed when this was going on because they are not really racist... I am a black person that sometimes make racist jokes, but then I always say that it was a joke and hope no one was offended. Sometimes, we should just learn that we can laugh about somethings, and know that people are not always trying to offend us.

[@estrellavazquez4009]

I totally agree! I didn't find it racist at all! They were obviously joking. And i dont even see it as ignorance. I felt the light-heartedness of the comment. Myungsoo didnt mean any harm. I mean im Mexican but i can tell if someone says " I thought mexican ppl just wore sombreros and eat tacos who live in poverty" in a mean way or in a joking matter

[@TheRandomChinwe]

***** lol i just find it too funny the extent that these people are going to try to justify what was point blank ignorant and racist. Whether they were joking, completely ignorant, or if it has something to do with korean culture (cause there was one guy who wrote 20 something lines worth explaining Korean history and why because of it these comments were not racist) it doesn't change the very obvious fact that their statements were ignorant and racist

[@sparklefarter]

Really enjoyed this episode. It always so interesting to see foreigners be so well at knowing another country and their native tongue. I love how they are all so open with accepting all the jokes and their unique side talents.

[@chargi717]

LMAO literally @ Sam O's first answer to the WGM question.

[@Mafi19]

Haha that was hilarious and the "Korea is not ready for that!"!lol Sadly true!^^'

[@Gabbiie95]

These guys are awesome! These guys really give me hope in my dream of going to Korea and learning Korean. It won't be easy but if they can do it then I can too!
