Mark DeFrancis · June 14, 2007

Korean Badass is both Korean and Badass. This one-man show, part of the National Asian American Theatre Festival, is two hours of furious theatre . . . One of the hardest things for an actor to do is handle a solo performance, but Saxon goes the distance and unveils a complex biography that is as poignant and moving as it is badass.. . (including) trying to fight a tradition that disapproves of his choice to be an actor, culminating in a powerful scene between him and his father.Half the fun of a one-man show is watching an actor challenge himself.  . . a diverse array of characters . . .rarely lets his concentration lapse. Director Jeannie Barroga cannot go without mention for crafting a fine performance.  . .
