Interview with David Choi BY JOHN LEE http://www.youtube.com/user/davidchoimusic http://davidchoimusic.com Fun David Choi Fact: 22nd most subscribed musician on youtube.com, which is higher than Avril Lavinge, Carrie Underwood, Beyounce, MJ, JT, Alicia Keys, 50 Cent, Usher, and Madonna! KT213: Hey David, give our viewers your 30-second intro! David Choi: Well I was born and raised in Orange County, grew up playing violin and piano, I enjoy web browsing, and all things music! KT213: First and foremost, you have over 2million hits on some of your youtube videos. Did you have any idea that you would have this kind of following? DC: I had no idea. I started posting videos as a social experiment, and it exploded after YT featured "YouTube (A Love Song)" on the homepage. I continued to make videos because people were asking. KT213: When did you realize you had a knack for music and song writing? DC: As I mentioned, I grew up playing and listening to music, but my passion for songwriting didn't emerge until I was 16 years old. KT213: You have a performance coming up at the Shrine for Kollaboration. Are you nervous? What are your expectations? DC: Yes, I'm nervous! I'm not quite sure what to expect, which makes me even more nervous about it. My hands start sweating whenever I think about it! KT213: Where can we see more of David Choi? Any upcoming projects besides Kollaboration? DC: I have a YouTube channel where you can subscribe for the latest David Choi news as well as my Myspace page. I'm ALWAYS working on something! KT213: OK, boring yearbook question coming up: Where do you see yourself 5 years from now? DC: In 5 years, I see myself doing the same thing I'm doing now. Hopefully by then, I'll have lived more, seen more places, and have done more "important things" for humankind. KT213: Your favorite hang-out in K-Town? DC: Hmm, I'd say Hodori because they are always opened. It's not really a hang-out for me, but I do go there once in awhile when I'm in the area! KT213: For all the ladies, are you single? DC: Yes. KT213: Last minute shout-outs? DC: Hi to my YT subscribers and hi to my friends Sam Chun, Dan Chun, and Peter Yim! KT213: Thank you so much for your time David. We wish you the best of luck! DC: Thanks for interviewing me, it was fun! |
