In this episode [no. 41], Jay announces the news about two interviews coming your way in February and March, and the which start next week, in episode 42.

The first of these guests is Annie Ko, one part of the Seoul-based electric rock duo Love X Stereo and who speaks to us about the recent ban on breeding, slaughtering & ultimately the sale of dog-meat in South Korea, and and her involvement in this. It is suggested that you see some of the links (articles and documentaries) below to get a bit of an understanding of the dog-meat controversy, the new ban and Annie's involvement.

A lot is covered in this upcoming interview with Annie and we are proud and excited to bring it to you.

The second guest, whose interview will feature in March is Anna Bondarenko and she runs a multicultural open art/print/design studio and art café in a beautiful city Busan, South Korea.

This interview should give new perspectives on various aspects relating to living and working in South Korea.

We hope you enjoy what is coming to your ears (and eyes, on YouTube;).
