아시아 땅 밟고 데이팅 앱을 깔아보니 그 비참한 현실을 알게 된 케빈 - 그가 아시아에도 일반적인 남자에 불과하다. 방법이 뭘까요? 아시아의 연애와 미국의 연애는 얼마나 다를까? 현지 연애 고수들 케이트와 그레이스와 그 차이점을 알아보자!

From Beijing/Hainan, standing 185cm tall, at Forward, meet Mcrid! This globetrotter is probably the most woke person I've met in Singapore.

Mcrid talks about how studying in Canada and the US has shaped his identity as he experiences Black Lives Matter at a predominantly white New England liberal arts college (12:30) before transferring to Cornell (21:30) and finding himself in an offshoot Buddhist sect (30:55). And as if he hasn't toed the line enough, Mcrid talks about becoming a Christian in China - where the party, not the trinity, comes first (39:00).

And if you're curious what a man named "Mcrid" looks like, you can listen and find out (47:45).
