The meta-punking of Dan Lee/Tablo

Posted by on April 26, 2012


The Stalking of Korean Hip Hop Superstar Daniel Lee

I first read about Dan Lee/Tablo in Stanford Magazine, but the new additions to the Dan Lee story become even stranger since he’s married to Kang Hye-jung who is the main actress in the Korean film Oldboy. The themes of identity and revenge between the Dan Lee story and Oldboy share a stronger and even more uneasy connection with the introduction of Cho, Dan Lee’s cousin, in this recent Wired story. The blurring of the lines between reality and fiction starts feeling like a grand meta-punking.
