There's not much in English for an obit (and actually saw the info at a Mystery Science Theater fan site), but I was sad to see this. As with many people on the show he had a LOT of different roles, but I remember Mr. Kwang the most.
This is the best tl;dr I could make, original reduced by 79%. (I'm a bot)
> A pioneering Asian American actor, founding member of East West Players, and the first Korean actor to perform on Broadway passed away on April 4 at the age of 85.
> Others have already succinctly written what he meant to Asian Americans, to Koreans, to Korean Americans, to actors of color, to his Korean church, etc So I'll leave it to the greater minds than myself to properly place him in the pantheon of Asian American pioneers.
> Head full of dreams of winning awards as an actor/director, yet filled with all the pangs of potential failure with little support from my Korean family, I was thrust into a cadre of Asian American artists I had never met before nor even knew existed.
> It quickly lead to the founding of Asian on Stage in Boston, which lead me to the San Diego Rep, then to The Northwest Asian American Theatre, and finally to Lodestone Theatre Ensemble in Los Angeles.
> The first time I met Soon Tek Oh was during auditions for his Asian American theatrical troupe Society of Heritage Performers - a new multicultural ensemble formed in response to the LA riots, countering the stereotypical depictions of Asian Americans in mainstream media as immigrants and victims of violence - which would explore Korean and Korean American stories presented in the Madong Nori theatre tradition, including Korean classical music and dance.
> There are so many memories of my time with him, but the most special one was of the two of us driving to No Cal to collaborate with the Asian American Theater Company in San Francisco on a reading of Silas Jones' play CANNED GOODS. He opened up with me about so many personal things on that trip: his early life, his marriage, theatre training at UCLA, the early days as one of the original founders of East West Players, a car accident he had been in, acting career, desire to teach in Korea, the differences between eating Korean and Japanese food, and many other things.

EDIT: its all good, everything is. Love be okay, its okay, I'm good
so, I have spent the last 2 months doing the grind for a follow up to a failed Alpha overseer for the players on my server to enjoy.
The idea is simple enough: I breed the dinos, put an ASC BP quality saddle on the dino, and invite those eligible to participate in the event. Last attempt was December 27th, 2020 and everyone made it all the way to the overseer, but then they didn't listen to the strategy and pretty quickly got killed off.
2 months to the day, we are going to do it again, this time not with Rexes, because rexes are plain and boring and everyone's done it before. This time, I wanna do something new and exciting with a twist. Let's bring in Tickle turkeys to terrorize the Alpha overseer.
Ok, let's see, the Mammoth recently got a TLC and it's no taller than the Yutyrannus.
So I spend close to 2 months breeding Therizinosaurs, I get them with a really nice set of stats and levelled them evenly. They even have a better saddle than the rexes. so I am excited to see a new tactic going into the tek cave. Only one small oversight, and I don't know if I should blame myself or blame Wildcard...
Rough size comparison of Yuty and Mammoth
so, what in the actual hell is with the TLC Mammoth hitbox? It seems to be like a tent stood upside down on the narrowest point.
the Mammoth hitbox, as I imagine it
oh and I now have a backup plan, gonna sub out 2 theris for rexes and bring the Yuty along for a buff still. good thing I have valentines chocolates from breeding the theris.
^(and yes, I know I have creative mode on, it is just for a last minute test before the big day... in 2 days)
We might be seeing the birth of something here! I can't believe how pro he made this and he just got into the dead a few months ago!!!!
