Conan Announces His Trip To South Korea

February 11, 2016

Conan is taking his show to Seoul to meet a Korean superfan who sent him local snacks instead of studying.

TranscriptCONAN: NOT TOO LONG AGO I RECEIVED A LETTER FROM A FAN IN SOUTH KOREA NAMED SUNNY LEE. SHE WROTE SHE WAS WATCHING CLIPS OF ME ON YOUTUBE INSTEAD OF STUDYING FOR THE KOREAN S.A.T.'S. AND SHE WROTE ME TWO LETTERS ON HER S.A.T. TEST SHEET AND INSTEAD OF STUDYING SHE WROTE ME A LONG VERY NICE LETTER. SHE WROTE ME A VERSION IN ENGLISH AND A SECOND VERSION IN KOREAN, JUST IN CASE I ONLY SPEAK KOREAN. AND SHE WAS KIND ENOUGH TO SEND ME A GIANT BOX OF KOREAN SNACKS. I WAS EXCITED ABOUT THAT UNTIL MY ASSISTANT IMMEDIATELY ATE THEM. SO THEY'RE GONE NOW. GOOD OLD SONA GOT TO MY KOREAN SNACKS. ANYWAY, VERY KIND LETTERS AND BASED ON THIS FANTASTIC LETTER I DECIDED TO VISIT SUNNY LEE AND HER COUNTRY OF SOUTH KOREA. I'M GOING NEXT WEEK AND WE'LL AIR A SPECIAL SHOW BASED ON MY VISIT AFTER I RETURN. LADIES AND GENTLEMEN, HERE IS MY MOTTO. IF YOU SEND ME FREE SNACKS FROM YOUR COUNTRY, I WILL TRAVEL THERE IN PERSON TO THANK YOU. THAT'S WHAT I DO. [CHEERS AND APPLAUSE]
