About This Book
Bug has always been an interview magazine first and foremost, although I've
tried my best to move beyond that model in recent years. On a political level, I
simply felt it was presumptuous to write about a culture I had only recently
come into direct contact with, and decided that listening to local people was
the best approach, at least early on.
On a more basic and political level, though, I started up Bug in early 1997
mainly as a means of meeting prominent or interesting people I admired whom I
probably wouldn't have had the chance to encounter otherwise; it was my way of
interacting more intensly and profoundly with the new community I found myself
in - "Korea"- and in fact was just the first of many subsequent levels of
community involvement that I experienced through Bug, a never-ending process of
almost viral-like transmission and replication that continues to this day. - J.
