Not too long ago, Daniel Dae Kim<\/span> had an unusual encounter with a salmon. It had nothing to do with dinner.<\/div>\n

The actor, director and producer lay down in a doctor\u2019s office in Seoul for microinjections into his face of DNA from salmon sperm. The hope was to reduce inflammation and improve elasticity.<\/p>\n

\u201cI look like I got a little sunburn and a little redder than usual, but it\u2019s not bad,\u201d he said to a camera crew after the procedure. \u201cOK, I\u2019m camera-ready.\u201d<\/p>\n

Kim was putting his face on the line as part of the new CNN series K-Everything \u2013<\/em> Kim\u2019s love letter to K-beauty, K-pop, K-food, K-film that looks at the global rise of Korean culture. It debuted on May 9 on CNN International and is also available on CNN and HBO Max.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt\u2019s an examination of how Korea has risen in the course of three short generations from a war-torn third-world country to one of the most modern places in the world,\u201d Kim says.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe\u2019ll take a look at how that\u2019s happened through food, through cinema, through beauty products and through music.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
