CONCLUSION
This interview was really enjoyable for me. Tony Medina has been one of my closest friends for many years, and we have travelled all over the planet together (not to mention the 60-some-odd times I have gone to Korea to visit him for work) and I can attest first hand to the success Tony has created for himself in a country completely different from where we grew up in and in a language that is not the easiest to learn.
