Meet Lucy, one of my cool Korean friends with a cool Korean job. This fashionista was awesome enough to give me a tour of her territory in the SBS broadcast building in Mok-dong. Her job? She designs outfits for the broadcast anchors. Some get stripes, some get special colors, all get a look to keep the news fresh. This means she has to constantly watch the anchors to make sure a tie isn't crooked or a blouse creased. If they are, she runs down on set and fixes it in a commercial break.
As a journalism grad, I was thrilled to be back in a newsroom (I even got to meet an anchor) and also happy to see Lucy's workspace to be the perfect den of activity. Check out all those clothes. Every week, a driver takes her to scout out the new fashions at major designers. As a 24-year-old girl in a city as fashion-conscious as Seoul, she's gotta be good. Congrats, girl. Here's hoping you can accompany the reporters to the World Cup this summer.
