Haha! I just realised that I’ve not written for more than a week…. Sorrieeee….. *red face*.
My brother took a trip to London and is back. My friend, bb took a trip to Japan and is back. Me? I took a trip to Korea and Japan and am still not back. Spritually, that is. Unfortunately, physically, I am here, in Singapore.
Guess most people know that I’m really into Korean dramas since 4 years ago. I mean, it’s not big a secret. Actually, I end up talking about Korean dramas inevitably to most of my clients and friends, often failing to see their glazed look, if they’re not a Korean drama fan. I know more about the Korean entertainment scene than I do about my own country’s. But it’s not my fault. Really. They have too many good looking cute guys over there! *Wails* This is a serious case of too many kimchi men and too little time.
This past week, I have been distracted by what I call, my side dishes. 3 side dishes to be precise.
Ju
I’m alternating between crying (Heaven’s Tree is a melodrama filmed mostly in Japan) and laughing (Goong is a romantic comedy). Staying up till 4am to watch a video on my tiny laptop that I only half understand. Mad isn’t it? And yet it’s.. so much fun and stimulating, especially when you’re downloading an episode that has just been screened in Korea a few hours ago.
Some people will laugh and think it’s another crazy auntie swooning over men half her age. I disagree. I don’t swoon. I just drool. Haha!
But I want to know- what’s the difference between my kind of fun and those who enjoy watching 22 men chasing after a small ball? Or hitting a little ball with a iron stick? Nobody laughs if you say you’re Man U fan. But say you’re a BYJ fan, and they raise their eyebrows. *Hmphf*
I’ve learnt alot ever since this “Korean wave craze”. I’ve learnt to download, upload, image editing, webhosting and a whole host of terms that I didn’t even know exist. Isn’t something good if it makes you learn?
And it has even spilled over to work.
Recently I’ve starting to import Korean books and Korean magazine. Who says you can’t earn money from your interest?
A taugeh plucking auntie I am not!
Now excuse me whilst I upload a raw, LQ file onto YSI for a fellow K drama fan. Then I’m going to have supper with my kimchis.
My only main Korean dish- Bae Yong Joon
And oh, before I log off..
*Ahem*
Korean magazines and books now on sale in Kinokuniya. Will be available in other places soon. Hurry, hurry whilst stocks last.
End of advertisement. Hehe!
