Begawan - Kim Sung Taeg, a popular actor from Korea, recently
visited the Sultanate, hosted by the Empire Hotel & Country Club.
Kim, who arrived with his team from
Spring News (SPN) of Korea, was in the country to conduct a photo
shoot of the Empire Hotel & Country Club, which will be featured on
the SPN portal.
"I had the opportunity to visit
various tourist attractions in the country, including the Night
Market in Gadong. I have also sampled a few local dishes such as
Nasi Lemak with sambal, which I really enjoyed," said Kim in an
interview.
"The people here are very friendly.
In fact, I was surprised to have fans from Brunei who actually
recognised me when we went to a photo 'shoot in Gadong. It is
certainly heartwarming to know that the people here actually watch
Korean movies and TV series. "I am quite impressed that such a small
country has a magnificent hotel such as this one and I am very
impressed with the golfing and water sports facilities," added Kim
who is also a golfing enthusiast.
"I hope Brunei will host more
Korean artistes so that more Korean people will get to know about
the country and I am sure that the activities and hotel facilities
will likely impress them," he added.

awards, including the 2002 New Actor Award, MBC Drama Awards and
2004 Outstanding Award, MBC Drama Awards.
