Alexander Armstrong In South Korea
Channel 5, Tuesday, 9pm
To get a closer look at life in the East Asian republic, Pointless host Alexander Armstrong takes us on a cultural tour.
He arrives late at night in bustling downtown Seoul, taking in the sights and sounds of the Gangnam district – made famous in the west by Psy’s hit single. Next up he meets some of Korea’s many YouTube stars, including Korean Billy, whose English accent impersonations have earned him legions of fans, and record-breaking “bulkeater” Mukhbang.
