King Sejong

Known primarily for the nation’s longest running independent comedy show (The Lincoln Lodge) we also produce special events, help others organizations to raise money with comedy events and offer classes (Feminine Comique and Stand-Up Seminary) to encourage more community participation in stand-up comedy.  We have been very successful at nurturing local talent and can point to a long line of alumni like Hannibal Burress, Kyle Kinane, T.J. Miller, Pete Holmes and Cameron Esposito who all got their start at The Lodge. Our reputation for professionalism, talent and integrity means organizations such as Just for Laughs and Comedy Central have invited us to collaborate with them.

The Lincoln Lodge

William Paik’s last show in Chicago before leaving for Korea for a year.

Come See William Paik’s last show before leaving for Korea for a year. He has a friendly, relatable and high energy style with observational jokes about sexual development, popular culture, and growing up as a kid of immigrants. He’s performed at the Asian Comedy Festival in New York City, the Milwaukee Comedy festival, and he produces East of California West of New York at the Lincoln Lodge in Chicago. In August he will be in Korea for a year on a Fulbright studying and participating in Seoul&#x27;s stand up scene. Some thoughts on the title: I titled it King Sejong who was most famously known for creating the Korean written language system that we see today. The show itself is not about Sejong, but he’s a figure and story that evokes stability and pride, which reflects how I feel wrapping up my time in Chicago for now.
