8 Asians


I’m hoping that everyone here is a fan of HBO’s Flight of the Conchords and they agree with me that the highlight of the new season is Bret singing Korean karaoke with the perfect background video. The premise of his musical interlude was based on his band partner, Jemaine, being forced to don an Art Garfunkel costume every time he wanted to sleep with his new girlfriend. Yeah…it’s really funny when you watch the episode.

I love it when American pop culture makes fun of the same stuff my friends and I joke about. It makes me feel special. Like we’re all in this together. You know, this thing called life. And it’s one big joke.

Can someone tell me how accurate his accent is?

Thanks to MRod for finding the clip!

What next?

  • it’s surprisingly good

  • He mispronounced a few things – but probably one of the best renditions of the Korean language on television I’ve seen thus far by a non-korean-born person (he’s better than Daniel Dae Kim on Lost…but I think anyone could speak Korean better than him).

  • @Moye Asian high five!

  • haha, so hilarious.. i like it!

  • his pronunciation is really good. i love it. but, what is this song anyway? i grew up in korea and never heard this song before. The lyrics of this this song is like really hilarious. it’s like old language or something.

  • i think they made the song up for the show.

  • I licensed this tune to FOTC, it’s actually Chinese, not Korean (though Brett added his own Korean lyrics). If you check my post, there’s a link to the song on iTunes.
