SEGMENT PRODUCER: NATALIE CROSS

Reel Team interviewer Roy Tjioe takes us to the Kaneohe studio of fimmaker Tom Coffman. Also an award winning writer and historian, Tom Coffman discusses the making of and distribution of his two-part PBS documentary "Arirang", which explores the origin and journey of Koreans in America. He explains how the project came about and how he got the Korean American community and Koreans in Seoul to back the $800,000 project. He's a man who's perfectly happy with how the project and its distribution turned out. "I wouldn't change a thing."
