In this episode, we talk with Nick Neon, who is a Korean-American filmmaker and actor who spent most of his 20's living in South Korea. He returned to the States with his award-winning short film, Ultra Bleu: A semi-biographical coming-of-age narrative about a 20-something and lost queer kid trying to figure out adulthood. A love letter to his 20's, Nick is back with a sequel titled, "Zero One". Nick talks about what inspired him to create his own films, his issues around less-represented demographics in media, and how he experienced his breakthrough in making films that give insight into the more diverse stories that need to be told. Nick is completely transparent and honest in this conversation and shares with us his inner-most struggles as an artist and the internal pressure to produce results by a certain age. We really appreciate Nick for joining us in the this conscious conversation segment and sharing his unique message from the bottle. Tune in and connect! www.messagesfromabottle.com

Launched in 2011 by former skate punk rocker Toby Hwang and fugitive astrophysicist Annie Ko, Love X Stereo is a dazzling Seoul electro rock duo whose dreamy kaleidoscope of stellar synthpop anthems have enraptured music festival audiences across Asia and North America. With the epic release of their double EP series ‘We Love We Leave' in 2016, Love X Stereo headlined at SXSW's perennially packed ‘K-Pop Night Out' showcase, and has been nominated by music critics as one of the best dance/electronic album of the year at the 2017 Korean Music Awards. In 2017, they started to skip the release of traditional albums in favor of releasing 37 brand new tracks and music videos all via Patreon. As a result, they released two LPs in 2017, two more in 2019, and one of their newest single ‘Zero One,' a collaboration with critically acclaimed director-actor Nick Neon, was highly reviewed by Billboard. Most recently, the band participated the original soundtrack for the newest Netflix Korea's original series ‘Love Alarm.'
