APN's Interview with Linying

Last week APN had the pleasure of sitting down with comedian Harry Jun, who was visiting Melbourne for his run of the Melbourne International Comedy Festival. His show titled "Inside Jokes, Outside Voice" actually sold out its entire Naarm run (we are so proud 🥹), and our team who luckily snagged tickets can absolutely see why.

So if you missed out on seeing his set, this interview is a must-listen! Jessica, Denise and Annabella chat to Harry Jun (not to be confused with K-pop idol Harry June of DKB, its an inside joke 😉, you have to listen to the end to find out) about "choppelgangers", bed-rotting, how he went from a high-school teacher to comedian, and of course all about his comedic process behind the show!

(0:04) Witty Banter with Harry Jun

(3:19) Inside Joke, Outside Voices

(11:30) From teacher to comedian

(16:50) Multicultural/multilingual comedy

(23:54) Edinbrugh Fringe and shoutout to Jenny Tian!

(26:30) Growing up Korean-Aussie and introducing Korean culture

(33:36) Socials and future projects!

This week APN dropped it like hot, hot, hot, oh jigeum feeling so hot. No we did not play HOT by SEVENTEEN but we did talk all things Heated Rivalry - the hot new show generating lots of discussion and love, and Hotpot Bomb  - the hot new food product that claimed to be the 'first' of its kind...generating lots of discussion and hate. And finally, Annabella again makes the most of her solo time in the studio and yaps about her favourite neighbours, BOYNEXTDOOR and explains all about their lore/concept.

(7:54) Heated Rivalry and its Asian-ness (?) 🏒

(22:19) Logan "The Cucumber Guy" and Fly By Jing's Hotpot Bomb 💣 controversy

(33:20) WHO'S THERE? THE BOYNEXTDOOR 🩵🚪 !!! (their new live album is so good...)
