What I’m listening to: I’m still obsessed with All About That Bass
by Meghan Trainor. Positive vibes, a soulful voice, and a healthy,
supportive message. Being half Korean, I also love K-pop – 2NE1are my
favourites. I have classical music on my iPod – it engages the mind.
What I’m reading: I’m
interested in North Korea and have read some fantastic books based on
first-hand experiences and stories from defectors. Dear Leader by Jang
Jin-sung and Escape From Camp 13 by Blaine Harden are both mind-blowing.
What I’m watching: I love Game of Thrones, Mad Men, Boardwalk Empire, 30 Rock and QI, but my go-to TV show at any time of the day is, of course, Friends. The humour never gets old. I also love trashy reality TV: The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills and Keeping Up With the Kardashians. Don’t judge me.
What artists I’m following: I’d
love to work with photographer Wing Shya. I worked with make-up artist
Wendy Rowe – she’s inspirational and breathtaking. I love makeup and
how it can transform someone into almost anything. Olivier Yoan also
inspires me – he is a Hong Kong/China-based French photographer.
Where I’m surfing: 9gag.com is
great for laughs, Boredpanda.com has hilarious videos of cats doing
funny cat things, but Telegraph.co.uk is my homepage – having a master’s
in finance and financial law, I like being up to date with economic
news and current affairs. There’s more to life than cats and
Kardashians.
