Me too! They seem to have a pretty good following already. I’ve started following the on instagram and I have to say they are handsome. You could say that I have ACRUSH on them.
It looks like a project of mine is yielding a multimillion dollar fraud case that\’s going to go the the FBI for investigation! (I found the fraud, I didn\’t commit it!)
After watching the first two eps of Forest of Secrets, I\’ve realized that Bae Doona and Kim Jae Wook could play brother and sister. I was watching and he kept popping up in my head.
Last episode of All is Well: WHAT THE SHIT IS THIS? Yeah, the OTP gets married but they are friendly with all the people who did terrible things to them? And no one goes to jail? I call bullshit.
Less than 20 eps of All is Well left. I can only watch about 2 in a sitting because I keep getting angry at various characters and need to get away from them.
hi there, weaver. Textile artist who hates weaving but loves felting here. (I do have looms and I even had plans and determination to start something, but then it got buried under some stuff and forgotten).
Fight My Way is killing me in the best possible way. Dong Man and Ae Ra, I need you two to kiss! But not yet, because I need this romantic tension to build until I\’m about to die.
I want to watch another episode of All is Well, but we\’re getting into serious angst territory. I just want Ga Eun and Ki Chan to be together and happy. But there\’s 49 episodes left.
I’ve been spinning for about 12 years now and love it. I just bought a second hand rigid heddle loom 2 weeks ago so I’m still getting the hang of it. I’m making my first scarf from stash yarn now.
I thought I was emotionally ready to finish Tunnel. I was not. I’m slightly sad that there was no glimpse of the new future, but at least I can hold on to the one in my mind.
I don’t know that I want a season 2. While I could watch these characters forever, I don’t want to see Kwang Ho and Yeon Sook separated ever again. In my mind, they both live on and our couple grows up together and falls in love.
It’s not bad. It was a bit like a cross between cough syrup and flat Mountain Dew. If I feel more energetic, I might have to buy some at the Korean grocery. My coworker’s sister sent her a ton from when she was stationed in Korea.
I absolutely love my Korean supermarket, it is literally the coolest grocery store I have ever seen. It is huge, and sells foods from around the globe. Plus, it has a food circle, a Korean BBQ restaurant, a beauty store, and a bar!! So I can go buy fresh kimchi check out and then go eat some bibimbap. The store is so cool, when people visit I feel the need to take them there. Hahahahaha
I’ve been to Hmart and Lottemart in Maryland and some large groceries in San Diego and wish I had something like them here. We just don’t have the population for it. Oddly, I didn’t go to any groceries when I was in Seoul.
We have a few but they don’t sell alcohol. We can’t get makgeolli around here (Louisville, KY) as far as I know. I don’t like it much anyway. It’s not bad but not something I enjoy drinking. I can get soju at the liquor store though. One of the stores does sell homemade kimchi sometimes And It’s so good. They have a little snack bar and sell kimbap.
Living in California there are tons of asian groceries. This is the first Korean one I have seen though and the first one that is so much more than a grocery store. They sell all sorts of spirits, bought myself some soju (don’t know how they can drink it like water) but I have yet to buy makgeolli. They have a Russian section with crazy drinks!! I am very afraid to try. Hahaha
There is an Hmart just one town over from me. The perks of living in the suburbs of Chicago lol. We also have a Mitsuwa in the area but it is far from me.
I know it is an unfortunate name LOL. I didn’t realize it wasn’t a national chain! I used to get ads for it all the time on DramaFever. That’s actually how I found out about it, haha. It’s gigantic.
Why do I live in a backward town, lost in France where people just discovered a Chinese grocery store and look at me with big eyes when I say that I buy stuff there?! But unfortunately, even if they do have a couple of Korean stuff, like soju, ramyeon and kim, there aren’t a lot of things!
Fight My Way makes me laugh and hits me in the gut. I think of my childhood best friend who loved me and how it all fell apart. I will end up crying during this show thinking about the past.
Aw. We’ve all had The One That Got Away or The One That Could’ve Been, huh? I’ve experienced more of the latter and I while watching FMW, I definitely thought how nice it would’ve been to have a maintained more friendships and have lifelong guy friend like Dong-man.
Ikr? It hits all the right button for me. When he said “I may live embarrasingly, but you shouldn’t.” I couldn’t help but cry a bit. They are such an awesome best friends.

If you are a fan of gender benders, check out ACRUSH. They are a Chinese ‘boy’ group made up of girls. I like this first song.
