"I think there may even be a law that says buying a back-scratcher in Chinatown is compulsory"

Wah, more papers. Can't I just watch my weepy, overly long yet strangely addictive twdrama in peace?

On plus side, this paper is about Chinese food. (How various characters feel about it, and what that says about the heroine's insecurities. Or something.)

On minus side, I really want Chinese food now.

(Re: music: Okay, there's a reason this guy plays the Sensitive Musician character in Meteor Garden. I'm... almost impressed?)

I'm watching Fated to Love You. (No particular reason except it's permanently at #1 on mysoju and I needed mindless drama about ridiculously good-looking people, so I though I'd try it. Definitely wasn't expecting ep. 1 to be quite so, erm... *cough* Anyway.)

My allegiances to the characters keep constantly shifting. People I sympathize with keep turning out to be evil (I'm good at predicting this), and people I thought I liked do stupid things. I can't decide whether the family matriarch is awful or awesome. I guess I'll just have to stick it out.

I should make a real post at some point with actual content, because I've been keeping up with a couple of dramas and I need to flail about the last few episodes of Choon-Hyang. A lot.

flail away - i really love that drama, though there are bits in the middle i could do without. it certainly wouldn't be nearly as fun without those historical bits at the end of each episode. :D

i did end up liking FtLY, though the main dude's gf is a major pain the rear. SO annoying!!! i've been re-watching bits & pieces of some my favorites since i'm still waiting for stuff to load on either mysoju or crunchyroll. it's slow going. hope things are going well!
