Filmmaker Eric Byler profiles Asian Pacific American community leader Annabel Park, who left her life, job, etc. in LA to become a "super-volunteer" for Jim Webb during the fall of 2006. This interview is from November 2006, just weeks after the Virginia Senate race. It reveals the seeds of what was to become the Korean Amerian Community Corps. Footage from the first ever bilingual Korean American town hall meeting in Annandale, Virginia this Monday shows that a "pipe dream" is already a reality.

A very nice video, showing the grace and elegance of Democracy today in Virginia. There is a Thai and Vietnamese dance that in Thailand is called "Loy-Klatong" - done during the rainy season. In it the dancer pushes one arm behind and one arm ahead showing the organic nature of change; something new rises, something old falls into shadow. We saw Jim rise yesterday as Bush fall heavily by the side of the road. Likewise in this charming video we see this bright and dynamic young woman rise to our purpose with us, enhance our community and advance our civilization. Compared to the Allen video last year in which a native-born Virginian named after Lord Buddha was publicly scorned, disgracing Virginia and disgracing the country. Allen was the first to yield.
