Episode Synopsis
In this episode of the SeongLife Podcast, Daniel talks about how he discovered the song Monster by James Blunt and reads the lyrics of the song, reflecting on how music has been an important part of his life and the evolving relationship with his father and with his son Nathan. He talks about how songs can hold a special place in our hearts and minds, evokes strong memories, and how parenting can be both difficult and rewarding.

Plus, Christina and Daniel discuss sharing household chores and duties, the power of nostalgia, and the challenges and experiences of a bilingual relationship. Key Takeaways The Power of Nostalgia: “Watch it even if it’s on TV, just regular TV. And it doesn’t matter beginning, middle, or end. Wherever I land on it, I will watch it. I have watched Goodfellas probably hundreds of times, and I never get sick of it.” — Daniel Seong The Importance of Father-Child Relationships: “There’s something so special about a father-son relationship that you just don’t have with a father-daughter, vice versa. There’s something special about a father-daughter.” — Daniel Seong Fatherhood and Imperfection: And then you get to a point where you grow up a little bit and maybe you realize, hey, my daddy isn’t perfect.” — Daniel Seong Bilingual Relationships:“I explain to them what our relationship is; they’re probably thinking it’s very odd because I remember a friend coming to me and saying he was asking me if I knew Korean. And I told him, well, I can’t speak it fluently, but I understand it.” — Daniel Seong
