Introducing Lean & Loo (Leanne and Louise)
This came about after forming a friendship with a fellow author across the globe (Louise Dawn) and having a common desire to visit Korea.
We have both been avid Kdrama and Kpop fans for a number of years (low-key Army), and this organically developed when we became friends with a South Korean filmmaker and video producer called Yujin. He came up with a plan of following us with his crew for our entire trip and making a travel vlog documentary.
He loved the idea of two Western authors who were very different, with completely different accents and cultures, working together while discovering Korean culture and food. As individuals, we are both a little zany, and he found us perfect as hosts.
Fast forward a year of chatting it out, and we decided to go to Korea to film a 3-week documentary and, while there, film 3 short movies that we create ourselves. That involved sitting and writing 3 film concepts we can refine, picking actors and locations, and even directing the content when we get there!!
But that did not stop there. We decided to use our skills as authors and artists to create a children’s book together. Meanwhile, Loo made the life-changing decision to move to South Korea to become an educator. So after Dec 2024 Loo will be living in Seoul and our plans to film together will happen in 2025.
