Sam Hammington is a popular comedian, television and radio personality, and actor working in South Korea. Born on July 31, 1977, in New Zealand, Sam lived in Melbourne, Australia, when he decided to learn Korean in business school to beef up his resume. He did an exchange program at Korea University in 2001 and attended a live comedy show that changed his life forever. Sam was plucked out of the audience to take part in a skit, and his fluent Korean wowed everyone, including some scriptwriters and directors in the audience. He has since made many memorable cameo appearances on films and television dramas, including “Let’s Eat” (2014) and “Who Are You: School 2015” (2015). He also hosted the TV show “Witch Hunt” in 2013. But it’s Sam’s Korean reality show appearances that have made him a bona fide star. He was a popular cast member of “Real Men” (2013-2015) and guest on “Happy Together” (2014) and “2 Days & 1 Night” (2015). He also served as MC of “True Justice” (2014). Sam also appears in the Viki original series “Dramaworld” (2016), which was filmed in both Los Angeles and Seoul. Sam married longtime girlfriend Jung Yu Mi in 2013 in a wedding that was televised nationally in Korea.

What is the most exciting — and most terrifying — thing that can happen to a K-drama fanatic? Claire Duncan (Liv Hewson) is a 20-year-old college student who finds her real life boring. Maybe that’s because she’s never looking up, instead having her nose buried in her smartphone and watching her favorite Korean drama, “Taste of Love,” starring her favorite actor Joon Park (Sean Dulake). Joon Park plays the hot chef and protagonists in “Taste of Love” who is still waiting for his one true love to come into his life. Through a touch of the supernatural and a sprinkle of magic, Claire’s desire to shed her own boring life and live in the world of “Taste of Love” comes true when she is transported into her favorite drama and comes face-to-face with Joon Park! There, Claire also meets the mysterious waiter Seth Ko (Justin Chon), who made his own journey into the drama years ago from the real world and mentors Claire on how to navigate the dramaworld. When the appearance of Claire throws “Taste of Love” off-balance, causing other dramas to splice into the series, what kind of crazy adventure will Claire experience? “Dramaworld” is a 2016 Viki original series. Set in Los Angeles and Seoul, the first-ever American-Korean mashup series is written by Josh Billig and Chris Martin and directed by Chris Martin.
