You should have “gone native” and flashed the “V.”
I agree. Flash the “V” Rob!
What kind of pose is that? Are you trying to hide something? Where is the suit and tie?
And that looks suspiciously non-hanbokish, although you wear the blue well.

May we call you Baby Face Koehler? Congratulations on the new book.
It’s a pose to hide a double chin. Alas, now that I’m 40 I’m thinking of doing the same thing for my professional portrait on our firm website. The other alternative is exercise and eating right, both of which frighten me.
I’ll believe Robert’s gone truly native when I see a picture of him making a heart by touching his thumbs and fingers together while wearing a pink hanbok.
Or gone completely and irrevocably gay.
Why do they have a picture of a creepy guy who looks like he lives in his mother’s basement?
(sorry, couldn’t resist)
Just lovely!
