BBC has unexpectedly hit the Internet recently.
When Robert Kelly, a professor at Pusan National University in South Korea, was broadcasting live at his home, his two children suddenly entered in disorder. This video instantly turned this company into a global internet celebrity, and even sparked intense debate. The Kelly family recently accepted an interview with the BBC and revealed many of the reasons for this incident.
Foreign Affairs (WeChat ID: xjb-waishier) first give you a brief introduction to this oolong incident. After
pronounced on the impeachment case of Park Geun-hye on the morning of the 10th, the BBC invited Kelly to conduct an online interpretation. The
accident happened at this time.
While Kelly was still seriously interpreting the impact of Park Geun-hye's ouster, his daughter suddenly opened the door and swayed to her father.
The focused Kelly didn't realize there was an unexpected guest at all, but the anchor seemed to have a honey smile on his face and reminded him that "one of your children has come in".
Kelly looked at the camera calmly, and signaled his daughter not to come over with his hand. But he was already a little incoherent at the time, and even referred to South Korea as North Korea. Who knows that not long after, the son also "killed" in in a walker, and the scene instantly lost control.
At this moment, an Asian woman slid into the room and tried to take the child away with one hand, but she knocked it down. In order not to affect the live broadcast, she lowered her head all the way, thinking that the camera would watch. No, I even closed the door in a crawling manner, but finally took the two bear kids away from the camera.
was so embarrassed that only Kelly who was sorry was left. The host comforted, "Thank you Robert, it's the first time in everything, I think your kids really need you!" This video of
was obtained online. Ten million clicks, the Kelly family became a global influencer.
Foreign Affairs (WeChat ID: xjb-waishier) noticed that although Kelly did not give any explanation afterwards, he announced a lot of TV link program previews on Twitter, in addition to BBC, ABC News Radio, and CNN International .
Regarding this cute oolong incident, netizens quarreled on the Internet about two issues.
Who is the Asian woman who dragged Kelly's two bear children away?
Did Kelly not stand up because he didn't wear pants during the commentary?
With these two questions, the BBC invited the Kelly family for an interview, and Kelly also explained the ins and outs of the incident.
First of all, the Asian woman in the "rescue field" is his wife, not the nanny. After the video came out, netizens around the world had heated debates about her identity. Some netizens even worried that she might lose her job if she was a nanny.
's wife is Kim Jong-a, a Korean. Kelly moved to South Korea in 2008 after graduating from the Ohio State University with a doctorate. After that, she met Kim Jong-a who is teaching yoga.
Since many people assume that Kelly’s wife, Kim Jong-ah, is a nanny, a great debate on race, gender, and interracial marriage has also been triggered on the Internet.
Can you stop pretending to think that Asian woman is a babysitter, OK? She is Kelly's wife! Please stop racism
The BBC article believes that this is a stereotype of Asian female roles.
Kelly feels a little uncomfortable that his wife is considered a nanny, so everyone can just enjoy the joy of that video and stop arguing. As the party involved, Kim Jong Ah said he did not mind. She smiled and said that she had spent a lot of effort to get the two little babies out of the office.
Speaking of why her daughter swaggered into the live broadcast that day, Kelly was frank and forgot to lock the door. Not only that, the daughter was very happy that day, "She was hip-hop that day, because there was a party in school."
"I heard my daughter slowly slipping away, but thought Kelly locked the door...but then I panicked. When I saw the children were gone, they slipped into (Kelly's) office." Jin Jongya said.
Kelly’s parents in the United States also saw this video. His mother, Allen, believed that his granddaughter entered the live broadcast scene indiscriminately. She may have mistakenly believed that his father was talking with his grandparents because he and her husband often talked with their grandchildren through the Internet.
Foreign Affairs (WeChat ID:xjb-waishier) learned that because Kelly's daughter is so cute, many netizens shouted cute, and they even thought Kelly should pick up her daughter to live with her.
However, when Kelly and his wife recalled, they were a bit panicked that day and felt so embarrassed that they even worried that the BBC would never interview themselves again.
Kelly said frankly that the experience that day was really a mixture of surprise, embarrassment and funny, and of course it was also mixed with love, which was very cute and interesting. Regarding this scene, the BBC host joked that he could actually switch the screen that day, but if he did so, everyone would not be able to enjoy the joyful scene.
At the end of the interview, the host throws out the final baggage, that is, some netizens believe that the reason why Kelly has been sitting calmly that day is because he may not be wearing pants or wearing pajamas.
"I was wearing pants," Kelly said with a smile, and raised his leg to prove it.
