Yay!! I’m so psyched to hear that Dream has aired. I haven’t watched it yet and probably wouldn’t be watching it for some time, because I’m extremely busy with exam preparations and all. Oh well. Actually the only reason I can’t wait to watch it is because Kim Bum is in it! I’ve loved Kim [...]

Lately, I’ve become obsessed in collecting mobile phone charms… It all started 4 years ago when I returned to Malaysia to visit my extended family. There was this small shop in Penang that just sold mobile phone charms. I mean it had shelves with mini compartments that contained every kind of phone charms you could [...]

I’ve just discovered that soompi has the best library of asian fanfiction ever! For those who don’t know what fanfiction is, it is stories written by fans using characters from a book, movie, drama instead of being written by the original writer. Recently, I’ve been reading ones about Shin Chae Kyeong and Lee Shin (from [...]

OH my goodness, I’ve just realised that I’ve been blogging solely on dramas. Sorry, I promise I’ll blog about other asian stuff as well. Easy Fortune Happy Life looks pretty promising. It just started not long ago and even though the storyline is kinda predictable, I’m still gonna watch it anyway (at least snippets of [...]

I got fed up with Knock Knock Loving You (plot dragged on for too long, urgh), abandoned it and went in search of a new drama. I came upon this new Japanese drama, Koishite Akuma. The poster looked good, so I started watching it. Interestingly enough, it’s a teenage drama, something similar to that of [...]

A Delicious Proposal

I just finished watching A Delicious Proposal today after receiving it on my doorstep a week ago. Aired in 2001, it proved to be a pretty decent drama with 16 episodes. I didn’t find it boring or a draggy, like many korean dramas that I’ve seen. The pace was fine, but it wasn’t an overly [...]
