New Year's Eve Dinner Party with lafer and kakashi

Image
Goodbye, I'm leaving!! kakashi: Hello! We're back . And now, we're getting serious ... lafer? Will you do the honors? Tell us whom you are going to invite! lafer: Right off the bat, I'd have Song Joong-ki to my left and Ji Sung to my right. Yes, I know, about as surprising as your Park Shi-hoo and Lee Jun-ki. But lest you think I'm shallow enough to be swayed only by adorableness, let me assure you that I've seen various interviews with both these guys so am not giving these seats away lightly. Yes, lafer. I'm also going for brains rather than looks. This is about a dinner after all, right? And we will talk, right? Well, I'm not sure exactly how much talking we'll do, because let's face it, there is a slight language barrier. But we can pretend to be listening with rapt attention... while gazing into their eyes...... My hangul is perfect for the occasion. I can say "oppa", "sarangae", " kamsahamnid...

My Top 5 ... Ahjussi Actors

There is so many Top 5 posts I want to do, I'm about to go crazy. In fact, there's probably an infinite amount of Top 5 lists out there. Delete the probably: there IS an infinite amount of Top 5 lists out there. Next up: Ahjussis . Would I watch a drama just for them? Yes, I definitely would! I'm going to use the word stellar a lot for what follows, because they do stellar things, these men. No 1: Lee Won-jong, for being in quasi every drama I ever liked or semi-liked or potentially liked or probably will like in the future: Iljimae , Partner (semi-liked and semi-watched), Chuno , A Man Called God , Sungkyunkwan Scandal, Scent of a Woman (semi-liked), Warrior Baek Dong Soo , Vampire Prosecutor 1 and 2, Wild Romance (semi-liked), The Equator Man (which I theoretically like, but haven't watched). Don't know how he does it. Are there Lee Won-jong clones? Can I have one? He plays the funny well, the meanie well, the sleazy well, and he is so adorable in ...

Vampire Shows: US Vamps vs. Korean Vamps

Image
Vampire Diaries Season 4 premiered last Thursday. This is a perfect opportunity to do a different kind of comparison: US Vampires vs. Korean Vampires. Americans have the upper hand in terms of quantity - well, the vampire hype has been going on for a while over there. And I've actually seen quite a lot of US vamp shows. You know, before I became Korazy, I was Vamprazy. Blood Ties (which is technically not a US but a Canadian show): I remember Christina Cox as Vicky Nelson. That's it. And I do remember that I liked her in it, because Vicky Nelson is a great character and she portrayed her well. Moonlight: I remember Alex O'Loughlin as Mick St. John, but that's it. Ah, no, something else: there is one episode with mummies and an Egyptian museum... I think. Or hang on, was that in Blood Ties? Or was that in the Blood Ties' books?? Dammit, there's this vampire mess in my head. (Actually, I also thought that Mick St. John is the vampire who is with Vicky Nelso...
