Korean drama Special: If We Were a Season

Korean drama Special: If We Were a Season

In Korean drama, some things are not meant to last forever. *sigh*

SPOILER ALERT: 

I felt really bad for Ki-Seok here but anyhow, good thing I was relieved in finding out in the end that this story is open-ended. Because hugs meant that the story is not finished. YET.

Hulu Series: The Handmaid's Tale

Hulu Series: The Handmaid's Tale

Let's take a break from anything Korean. I'm currently watching a series from Hulu which tackles about scarcity for babies. The Handmaid's Tale is a dystopian novel by Margaret Atwood and was made into series. The first season was at 10 episodes and I'm watching now the fourth episode. It was fortunate that they had decided to do a second season but I think it will be shown in 2018.

I first found out about this on facebook, along with the movie Children of Men. I find this series interesting but this is kind of creepy. Below is their official trailer:

While I do not binge watch Korean dramas like I used to before, recently I watched a Korean drama Special from KBS which I found on Youtube. I liked it so I'm watching again another on YouTube. Korean drama special has one episode.

Let's Meet, Joo Oh

Yeah, I want to watch another episode with these drama specials. :(

Web Gaming, Anyone?

Web Gaming, Anyone?

Who else have grown up with computers? I have grown up almost addicted to computers fishing mainly for information on the world wide web but luckily I did not went to the extreme.

I play games but mostly on the web. Some of these website were introduced by my cousins. One of which is Neopets, if you are familiar with it, a simulation which can be quite similar to Pocket Monsters but were text-based and with cute pictures. Sadly, playing in Neopets is not available anymore.

And then, I learned about Mini-clip in which I learned that I prefer to play simulation and strategic games.

Who of you knows Utopia? This is a text-based website where you are a ruler for your kingdom and you allot the resources, build and conquer other regions which are owned by another user. This is this available on the web if your interested.

K-indie: J-rabbit

K-indie: J-rabbit

Since I've been listening to Korean drama OSTs way back high school, I happen to discover another gem of musicians which I hope the Koreans are proud to have. Not that I don't appreciate my own, I do. I just happen to admire how can they make their own music with a variety of musical instruments though honestly I don't understand a thing they sing (well, except for the English songs of course). Their voices are so soothing to hear and very much pleasing to the ears. 

So without further ado, I would like to introduce J-rabbit!

I heard first their song "Greetings" and "If You Love Me" in the Operation Proposal OST (a remake of the Japanese drama entitled Proposal Daisakusen). The drama made me cried heaps and made me shed buckets of tears. I recommend that you watch it too. 

Here is a sample of their music:

Greetings

If You Love Me
