If there is one show that makes me jump with excitement it’s ABC’s “LOST.” I don’t care what you or you say about the show, it’s my favorite mother effing guilty pleasure next to NBC’s “The Office” and my crush John Krasinski. Excuse me while I wipe the drool off my keyboard.

Daniel Dae Kim who is best known for his character, Jin, on the hit show “LOST”  has opened up a restaurant in Honolulu, Hawaii. Kim and restaurateur DK Kodama joined together to open up an eatery after they discovered their children attended the same school.

Daniel plays husband to popular A-list Korean actress YunJin Kim on the best show on earth.

My plan is to go to Hawaii, pretend that I’m just a normal person who happens to stumble on the restaurant. I’ll act like I don’t know who owns it, but then when Daniel comes out I’ll act surprised, whip out my camera, take a picture with him while doing the Korean peace sign, and then run away. MUHAHAHAHA!

For those of you who are not familiar with the show, get on abc.com right now and start from season 1. Trust me, you won’t regret it.

    I watch season 1 of “Lost” and stop..cause I was lost in the show and I’m pretty sure the director was lost too.The whole story was confusing

    @coffee princess: Have you watched it from the season 3 finale onward? Cuz it’ been aMAHzing ever since, consistently one of the most ambitious, inventive, and hair-raisingly awesome!fantabulous! shows ever! Needless to say, it’s the only show I really geek out about…and no, that doesn’t mean I’m one of those Lost mythology nerds. You can love the show without paying much attention to that stuff – it’s all about the drama, dammit!

    Interesting! I live in hawaii. Know the name and location of the restuarant? I can ‘accidently’ walkin into the restuarant! hehe

    It’s called The Counter and it’s located in Kahala Mall by Whole Foods. It’s a build your own burger joint…you can pick your patty size, sauce, bun, and gourmet toppings. It’s actually really good and they’re always busy. The sweet potato fries are reallly good! Hopefully they continue to do well because that spot has changed restaurants so many times in such a short amount of time.
