It is the 21st century. The USA is gradually moving away from Europe and Asia is moving inexorably closer. Korea is coming! K-Pop is coming! Kimchi is coming! Kim is coming too. With his first solo program.

The adventures of Ill-Young Kim, who is traveling in Germany to explore new abysses, are brand new and authentic. Many light years away from the mother planet "Korea", Kim ventures into galaxies never before experienced by a human being on stage. He draws on the hair-raising experiences he has every day as a German with an Asian appearance. In the process, the genuine Cologne native is mistaken for the North Korean dictator. Chaos breaks out in the Chinese restaurant. And Kim loves dogs anyway.

Ill-Young Kim casually and charmingly presents his spicy view of things and debunks many a prejudice in the process.

lll-Young Kim is an actor (including "Tatort", "Die Friseuse", "St. Pauli Nacht", "Ninja Assasin"), presenter and a true Cologne native. His parents are from South Korea. Kim hosted VIVA Zwei and the "Electronic Beats" program on VIVA in the 90s. He was also a club music producer and DJ.

Ill-Young Kim has also been a successful stand-up comedian since early 2010.
