In this week’s bonus episode, Andrew shares a story about how his New Year’s plans took an unexpected turn. After a fun trip to Canada, he returned to South Korea feeling under the weather.

Andrew also talks about celebrating New Year’s Eve with his wife and gives us a glimpse of his gift exchange.
