He has been introduced earlier. He knows how to imitate Chen Shuibian. And he is different, exaggerating, open minded and very demanding.
He told us that he would be on TV, although we "gave him the impression that we don`t believe him", we were all excited and sat in front of our floors` TV.
And yes, it is true, we saw him on TV in his favourite act, being an entertainer. The other actors are mostly recruited from the Taiwanese version of the Idols-series. It is a (for my eyes) typical Japanese-Taiwanese youth show with a lot of weird expressions and camera ancles. As you can see in the short clip, they also love slow-motion...

PS: After we left to return to our room to study he gave us another great example of Intercultural Communication: As usual we all had headphones put on to listen to our favourite music, Mark was already sleeping, and did not hear the outer-world. Suddenly Harm and I were shocked, stopped breathing and were about to over-react. What had happened? He was suddenly standing in the middle of our room, only wearing a Doraimon towel around his hips, smiling at us and being irritated about our hostile reaction. We told him, still being astonished, that we usually knock at doors before entering. He answered immiately: That's what I did, very hard!. But we did not answer of course, as we were isolating ourself acousticly from the rest of the room. We did not ask you to enter, why would you do it without permission? We asked him. He could not understand us, we could not understand him.
At least he left the room, being very dissapointed that he was shocking us with his presence, although the door was not locked.
