hjk–i watched a few episodes of I am Happy/Happiness at your suggestion and love it! The relationships are hilarious, touching, smart. It’s the first time that many of the veteran actors on this show don’t seem overly “greasy.” I never thought I would come across a show that made the unlikely Lee Hoon-Kim Hyojin pairing completely work! Plus, the way the writers portray chaebol seems too true! So here’s another fan who is backing hjk on this…check it out!

Travis always makes me feel warm and fuzzy.
gotta love the Scots…

Those parodies are hilarious! Thanks! You always seem to find the best YouTube videos.

Blake, Graham Norton is funny. You can find episodes of his show on BBC America.

haezi, and everyone else – check out I Am Happy/Happiness! We’re having a blast over at soompi watching this one.

i love nodame cantabile and the special was pretty good, too.

does anyone follow the mbc drama, chunhailsek park jung-geum? i usually hate overly dramatic soap operas but this one is pretty addictive despite its cliched use of evil stepmoms and unlikely coincidences. although i’m all for ajumma power, i have to say that i wish the main character was a little more charismatic (like maybe go hyun jung) and just a tad bit younger, same goes for her opposites–i know, i’m horrible. the actress does a decent job, but she’s better at the disillusioned, self-absorbed characters like the one she played in goodbye solo, rather than the righteous cop. han go eun is strikingly beautiful and tablo made his appearance in the series this weekend!

NO WAY. i never thought that there were people who disliked coldplay. oh well, that’s me and my musical ignorance.
gah james blunt! just shoot me now.

on a random (but uk-related) note, has anyone heard of graham norton? he’s a hilarious talk-show host who can make me cry with laughter. i recently found his videos on youtube with orlando bloom. i wish he had a show in the u.s.

i’m probably check out the oscars to see if Javier Bardem and Daniel Day-Lewis win cause they are amazing actors! and i’ll totally go crazy if Juno wins best movie cause it wasn’t that amazing and overated, no offense, i liked it too but didn’t live up to the hype.

I actually like the Stereophonics (and Coldplay too.). It’s just if you grew up during the Lager!Lager!Lager! party that was Britpop, bands like Coldplay, Starsailor (and uggghhhh) Embrace were kinda anticlimactic. Glorious self-destruction didn’t start again until Franz Ferdinand and (God Save The) Libertines signed on.

I LOVE TRAVIS, but I don’t like Coldplay. I think they’re not the same at all.

I remember at one point I only had “Re-Offender” on my playlist when it first came out. I listened to it over and over and over again, and I still love it even now.

So do you like Stereophonics too ?

I bet Russia is not very happy about this…

and LMAO at the james blunt video..i saw the “It’s Bloody Cold” parody about a year ago but it still makes me laugh…i really do not get the hype about him….i find his voice very annoying ^___^;
