Alec

Heyhey! I'm Alec, but most of you probably know me by my alias of CallMeAl! I co-host Bored Bros and have my own streaming channel where I do Art, Gaming, and lots of other stuff! If you'd like to check out my channel, you can click the link right here, or check out Bored Bros here!

When did you start streaming?

I don't remember the exact date, but I remember I told myself I was going to start the week after my father died. It was something I did to remember him by because he always wanted me to be happy in everything that I did. Anyways, I started the channel "CallMeAl" after I had wondered how people would like a channel comprised of painting with relaxing music and sometimes personal vlogs here and there. I was never expecting it to skyrocket as much as it did! So, thank you all!

What was life like growing up in 2 completely different countries?

It was kind of strange at first, but then I eventually got used to switching between living in France and in South Korea.

But there were some problems that did come up during those times. I'm half-French as well as half-Korean, so I would of course be picked on sometimes for my French or Korean sounding a bit different when I first started, but I eventually began to speak them both natively and it stopped. I also did have times where I'd take a class, something simple like History, and it would be completely different from what I learned in the previous grade.

What do you do in your spare time other than Game?

Oh, there's a lot of stuff I do that's not gaming related!

For example, I like to paint landscapes and sometimes people in my spare time!

I did have a stint where I did caricatures on the side as I did work at the local post office, and I also did have a time where I delivered parcels. But now, I don't really have to worry about a job considering how much money both Bored Bros and Streaming does bring in. I couldn't have done it without you all!

Oh no! I can't afford to subscribe or donate anymore! Are you mad at me?

Of course not! I don't expect everyone who follows my streams to donate or subscribe. I do my streams for the fun of it and for the entertainment of others, not just so I can beg people for their money. I don't think it's right for streamers to just constantly ask their followers for money and then complain when nobody donates, it's just wrong to do that in my opinion.

Did you speak English fluently when you first started your channel?

Kind of. I had learned it, but I wasn't very good at speaking it (kinda one of the downsides to growing up in a home that I had only spoken French). But I did eventually learn English after moving to Toronto.

왜 넌 네 방송에서 한국어로 말하지 않아?

한국어를 이해할 수 있는 사람이 그렇게 많을까?

그리고 얼마나 많은 사람이 영어를 이해할까?

네가 조금만 생각해보면 금방 이해할거야.
