- On this episode of Street You Grew Up On, Kerry Washington and Daniel Dae Kim travel to the picture-perfect town of Easton, Pennsylvania. Daniel’s parents immigrated from South Korea and worked hard to provide their family with “The American Dream,” while still preserving their culture and traditions. Even though his family moved around, he traces back his fondest memories to the peaceful street of Blenheim Drive. The diversity and sense of community opened Daniel’s eyes to the world, and what it meant to treat everyone with love and respect. It wasn’t until he moved to a neighboring town that wasn’t quite as idyllic as Easton. Through years of self-examination, and questioning his value, Daniel was looking to find his place in his new home. Carrying this passion into adulthood, he created an outlet of self-expression that represents all creeds and walks of life in harmony through his production company, 3AD.

How many of you have been in a video store before? What were your go-to movies to pick out?
Mine was three ninjas and Saving the last dance!!!!!
Mine was The Big Easy
Blockbuster videos long time ago I can't remember!
I used to love going to Blockbuster on a Friday night and check out the new release wall.
Mr Video. Block busters. Save the last dance! A Friday ritual. Get Debonairs pizza and whilst we wait for food, go to Mr Video. And then the normal arguments after movies and dinner - who is going to wake up early on Saturday to return the video. Brings back memories!!! Brother wants to watch an action or western. I want to watch a sci-fi. Sister wants to watch a romcom. And folks want to watch an Indian movie. And we could only get 2 movies. So an entire debate occurs in the movie store between a family of 5 of which 2 movies to get. Fond memories.
Daniel Dae Kim is a gorgeous human being.
Such an eloquent man. He super surpassed every expectation he plays in his cinematic character roles. Love the art on the wall. Very good interview
This has been my favorite episode so far. He is so poised, and expressive, and insightful. He is truly captivating. It’s always refreshing to see authentic ppl who have so much depth beyond the surface. Also he’s extremely attractive…I had to say it lol 🤷🏽♀️
I’m so glad someone said this. He has a calm vibe and such an interesting story, but he’s also so gorgeous.
I love ❤️ Daniel Dae Kim, he's one of my favorite actors, such an elegant , intelligent and sophisticated man. Daniel always plays such intelligent, strong roles and characters. Whenever he's in a scene he stands out. He owns his space and I love watching him in his roles, he always captive his audiences. Great 👍 👌 👍 interview.
You've such a refreshing podcast. THANKS for being sooo thoughtful and for sharing these organically, authentic Q n' A's each week!
Yes these are the best kind of questions!
What a great interview with DDK! I enjoyed hearing about his childhood & foundation, really connected with both his immigrant and Bronx-landing stories 💫
Love this show! The stories are adventurous and fun. No matter where they grew up, there is always something you can realate to and admire.
I LOVE him!!💜💜
Love the chemistry between you two🥰 Also, mad respect to you for improving your show with not only a different back drop, but most importantly giving donations to organisations and allowing your guests to be involved in the process👏🏽👏🏽👍🏽
I see his mother face in Kim's and his parents look so elegant in the picture. Every Korean has same smell memory of Kimchi and bean paste.
Your laugh is so contagious ♥️ I love your Podcast and the topics you pick 💯
Daniel is such a talented and humble actor he's amazing 👌
Wow…. Really loved this w/DDK. LOST is my all time Favorite series and my first introduction to his work. Then I loved watching him opposite Tony Goldwyn on The Anthrax series. Such an amazing, eloquent speaker. His outlook & energy is infectious. I LOL when he described the yelling from mom’s on the street for dinner. My mom was the loudest on our street and my old friends still mimic her echoes. Love that you are doing all these interviews Kerry. Such an intimate way of getting to know these actors. Can’t wait to see who’s next.
I’m in love with his voice 🙂
I think Daniel really Nailed it at 12:30 when he mentions media and entertainment as one way to effectively change one's view of the world through different plots that can shape one's opinion regarding, politics, ideologies, ethnic related opinions etc.
We have seen this recently through movies such as "Touriste", a Russian produced movie, displayed in Central Africa countries with the goal to change the publics perspective on Western culture in order to fit their Agenda, we see this often in kid shows as well, subliminal messages that influence and shape the views of younger generations regarding the current world.
Very interesting topic.
This show is so awesome. Your street and memories definitely shape who you are. Love this show!
I love what you're doing, Kerry! It's so needed and so special. They say that you should never meet a celebrity that you admire because they will disappoint you. You and Daniel wouldn't disappoint. So authentic and inspirational.
He is one of the most beautiful man i have ever ever seen
Tradition through food. Love this! Hits on so many levels.
Daniel is absolutely beautiful!
Great interview he is eloquent speaker
Really love 💕 this discussion. Thanks 🙏 to Daniel and Kerry.
He is such a handsome man, this was a great interview. Loved hearing about his childhood. Great interview
Great follow-up questions by Kerry. You can tell she is really listening and the questions entice more interesting answers
He is gorgeous! Woah!
“This was the entertainment I was consuming and I couldn’t see myself there.”
You are both wonderful people to learn from!
Kerry I appreciate your podcast I look forward to each one. I love when ask "what is something from that time and place where you grew up that you can bring into your current life?". That through line of community and simple times. Daniel is one of faves. I was first introduced to him on Hawaii 5-0. Thank you for this it is so refreshing and really shows how we should have meaningful conversations.
Good lord you two are beautiful 🌟🌟
This is so interesting and I love his once upon time. Watching 👀 from Liberia 🇱🇷 West Africa 🇱🇷 🌍
Love this show so much and I don't know what TF. Cry everytime when I see this show maybe I miss my family because I'm Thai who live in UK my Thai fam miss them so much hope you are good
I love Kerry Washington in my soul and heart
Besides Blockbuster? Picking out new releases on Friday but making sure I actually watched them and have them returned by Monday so as to not incur “late” fees. I laughed when Daniel said all the kids went home for dinner when their mom called out for them. I’m sure we missed lots of dinners bc I remember we went home when the street lights came on 🤣🤣🤣
I love this topic. Very inspirational.🙏
Kim : Great Dad material
Very nice interview 👍 laid-back Kerry. Love Daniel's work so much was heart broken when he left Hawaii 5-0
Uhg! I love his face🤗💜
An exceptional actor
I love this brother, he'll always be Chin Ho Kelly to me #Five-0
This is refreshing and inspiring Miss Washington.
Please keep on bringing people who are true influencers for society especially those who are underrepresented. We want to hear them and hope to follow their path.
This is beautiful, Thank you.
He's funny!! He moved to Hawaii so he would never be cold again 😅😅😁. Yea, he sure did date himself: Thirty Something & Hill St Blues, haven't heard those tv show in yrs. And I used too watch them also
I am putting it out there into the universe. I can see it and would' en it be great if Daniel was cast as Bad Man!!!
Bat Man?
what a great show :)! kerry asks such great questions. i'm starting to get to that age where I love looking back on my own memories, so really loving her interview style :)
Such a handsome man… that bone structure is everything!
Kerry this is such a beautiful channel. You have me deep in my thoughts about growing up on Lexington Avenue. My childhood was magical, so beautiful and safe. So hearing others share stories about their childhood makes me smile. I just subscribed 👍🏿
Thk. U. What an informative interview. #SafeSpaceToShareAboutCharacterBuildingExperiences
The neighborhood he describes growing up in is one I wish I had.
GUYS! GUYS! SO FREAKIN' BEAUTIFUL! I LOVE IT! LOVE THE VIBE! Y-E-A-H! THANK YOU!
DANIEL KIM And Kerry Washington
I love watching your interview
Very Informative
Thank you for sharing
as a chinese canadian not in arts still love seeing prominent asians in leading roles
Glad you have some diversity and new perspectives on here. Love to hear more from the Asian community
Such an insightful interview!! Talk about his elocution.
Such a handsome man ♥️
Well if it isn't Daddy Dae Kim.
Eu já estive em várias locadora de video !!! Parabéns pelo o pold cast!!!
What food did Daniels mom make from scratch?
Kimchi...in huge vat!
Per my last post: Excuse my auto correct it should have said 'Bat Man'
Blockbusters in Toronto. Beverly Hills Cop, The Fugitive, Back to the Future, Die Hard
Issa might be on to something🥰
Oh he is hot natured (well obviously you see him) because 68 is not cold. Although the setup of the heating structure that he described maybe that 68 wasn't really 68, maybe it was actually colder
Jesus loves you he died on the cross for your sins. Believe in him and you will be saved and go to heaven!
His discrimination was his salvation
so we asian canadians americans feel half asian and half western
🙃
princess diary
6:55 I thought he was going to say it was like in the forties/fifties. I actually feel 68 degrees is pretty normal, so I guess the p[parents and I would get along. I'm white and born in America too, but I just get too hot. Actually, I'd set it a little lower. Maybe, sixty-five.
Daniel is yummy😘
Kerry can you please help me become the next Iraqi Chris Brown?
Why didn't he talk about growing up in the Bronx instead of skipping to the I grew up in the suburbs when he's actually from the Bronx New York City it sounds like there's some hypocrisy and racism.. enough said
Perhaps his experience in the suburbs was the most pivotal, poiant and influential time in his life ..that he remembered and from listening to his story it sounds as though that is what he shared.
@@joannebaker4925 it's called.. I will just ignore the fact that my family started out in the Bronx New York City.. and the disassociation from the Bronx and New York city.. it's called Reinventing yourself .. like a lot of immigrants and people who are not from the New York City area do.. reinvent yourself and create a new history for yourself.. instead of owning where you really started from.. it's still racism .. enough said.
@@jamesbrown9553 Please 🙏 it appears as if you're being a bit defensive. I'm just attempting to get you to view this interview from another perspective. Remember our life story evolves from the many different life experiences and circumstances we have encountered, through the course of life journey. All I'm saying is that for him the most impactful and memorable time in his life was growing up in the suburbs, that when he was old enough to have experiences where those experiences left a lifelong impact on his life. Remember, Daniel said he immigrated here @ the age of 1 yr old and he then spoke about his experiences beginning in 2 & 3rd grade which is when he was old enough to internalized his surroundings and life experiences. To me it's not that he's being dismissive of being from the Bronx ,it more of him sharing where, when and how his experiences help to shaped his world view and it wasn't in NY but in PA. I can certainly understand that can't you. Listen, I too immigrated here As a young child and lived on 164th street in Mahattan for 1yr but then relocated to Chi-town. I often tell people when asked where is home..I'm from "Chi " because that is where I spent the years growing up that were the most impactful in my life. I never leave out NY but I always say Southside of Chicago,#Morgan Park area#Cook County Illinois is home. I didn't get the racism part from Daniel but perhaps I missed something in what Daniel conveyed in his interview. Anyway, just attempting to provide another perspective. BE blessed 🙌.
@@joannebaker4925 why do all the racist people stick together.. enough said
