I read this last year. I found it an interesting book because of how it introduced (what was to me) a completely alien – but real – sub-culture to an English-speaking audience.

Re-started season 1. OMG it was one of the earliest kdramas I watched, and I had no idea how subtle and finely made it was. Cho Seung-woo is a stunning actor.

This movie doesn’t age a bit despite made 14 years ago – in fact, even more eerily relevant to our current world. I love how the dysfunctional family unite to save the day. My favorite BJH movie and the shining stellar cast – and the little girl Go Ah-sung is now a shining lead on her own.
A movie that can be rewatched all the time and still feels fresh.
It's really amazing to see so many of you coming together to support #BlackLivesMatter. Thank you so much to everyone who donated, shared, used the hastag and helped by any means to make this possible! pic.twitter.com/FqUNfsWsIz

I love these two actors! I should watch this asap.
Have you seen Swing Time, with Fred Astaire and Ginger Rogers? A bit earlier (1930s) but their dancing is superb.

Just watched The Host (2006) by Bong Joon-Ho. He is a genius!
I would describe this film as COVID-19 meets Jurassic Park. I recommend this film if you are a Bong Joon-Ho fan.
