Ken Jeong Is Not Big In Korea

Synopsis

Ken Jeong shares his experience in Korea while promoting The Hangover 2 two years ago. He humorously recounts a conversation with a studio executive from Warner Brothers Korea, who bluntly informs him that he is not popular in Korea and that no one knows him. Despite this, Jeong later finds himself mobbed in a mall in Seoul, indicating that social media has made his presence known. He reflects on the irony of being recognized as the 'self-aware annoying guy' from the Hangover series. The discussion highlights the contrast between his perceived popularity and the reality of his fame in Korea, where he is considered a national hero by some fans.
