Episode Details

What does it mean to be heard without being seen?In this episode of Take 1.5, we sit down with Alex 현지 Wang, a Korean-American foley artist who shapes the emotional undercurrent of shows like Severance, Godfather of Harlem Season 4, Emily in Paris, and many more. Her work lives in the details—the creak of a chair, the echo of footsteps—sounds that make a scene feel real but often go unnoticed.Alex shares how she found his way into this quiet, hands-on craft, and how navigating the margins—as both a foley artist and a Korean American—has taught her to embrace the in-between. We talk about cultural identity, creative invisibility, and the deep resonance of sound in shaping how we feel, remember, and belong.This is a conversation about what we hear when we slow down—and what it means to build entire worlds from the background.https://www.youtube.com/@LikeAlexinUS
