A change in routine , I renewed my security guard license and plan on working some concerts this summer. Tonight I will be working a Burning Spear concert at the oceanfront . A legend in the reggae world, I am looking forward to this.
I have been helping my wife out in the garden, we have it looking great. We had an understanding that gardening is a good reason to get away from the internet . Flowers always something blooming , the vegetable project is extensive this year . Wildlife flourishes. Our yard housed a blue Jay nest and a mocking bird nest. The mocking birds peck at the cats. I saw one cat hiss at two juvenile mocking birds. Discovered we have a snake living in a corner of the yard by a cherry tree. Have enjoyed black and blue berries this year from plants in the yard. Figs are ripening.
I listen to a lot of books via YouTube, so many books are now available. I am not watching many dramas at the moment, perhaps as the winter approaches I will increase
I will give Miss Night And Day a try because of Jung Eun-Ji 🥰
Beauty & Mr Romantic Only hope for this show is a ToD that can kill the following trash people. Pil Sung’s Grandmother, Do Ra’s Mother , Jin Dan’s Mother and Pil Sung’s father .
QoT I hope the teen years mp3 player talisman has more mojo than the adolescent gold charm talisman. Why with the Evil 2ML Love Triangle Show ? The rest of the show is good w/o that. 🙄
In all the years they have been together did Hyun-woo not notice the “H” monogram of Hae-in! Apparently he remembers the teenage girl “vividly” and looked for her all over school like the Prince for Cinderella. 😂
that makes sense because she was not in love with him or that he didn’t leave some great impression for her to remember the face all through these years..
how many people do we remember whom we met for a fleeting second
Also, I think she did remember the boy who was kind to her that day, when she was sad. I think there was a moment of wistful longing when she thought back at when she would have lost that MP3 player.
Yes, teenage photos … strange they haven’t seen them. (Though we know her other weren’t too keen on her daughter, and she was sent away, so maybe they didn’t have too many photos from that time).
At least there’s a good chance that she will see his old photos now, at his place.
Are these going to be the new Kdrama merch that becomes a the rage and that people want—“need”— to have?? The last time it happened, it was Jun Ji Hyun’s Jimmy Choo heels from MLFAS, and before that, it was the Polaris necklace from the 2002 drama, “Winter Sonata”
I once owned my own merch edition of the Polaris necklace from “Winter Sonata”. I actually went to go dig for it after I published my initial post ^ but I can’t find it anymore. I guess I gave away the necklace at one point and forgot that I did LOL
I’m actually glad the necklace has more mojo, otherwise it would make no sense for this dude to be obsessed with Hae In.
For once, I don’t care about the existence of a SL. He has no real impact on the leads’ relationship, so I forget he’s supposed to be a “problem” most of the time.
He’s kinda making things better tbh. Thanks to him Hae In is living with Hyun Woo now. And thanks to him Hae In had such a cool moment in the last episode.
I didn’t like that he tried to ruin my Soo Cheol-Da Hey ship tho. He better leaves them alone.
Oh my I had a LoL moment. Don’t even know who the actress is (didn’t watch a lot of weekenders), but this post is sure hilarious.
Is there anyone who hates her in the production teams?
And I wonder what they think that women will jump at one another and start pulling hair like some wild animals when they hate one another. It’s just so funny I wonder if there are people who really do this irl. I only saw kindergarteners did this.

I saw this kappa statue while watching J drama Idaten . Kappas are mythical Kami that live in water . Sandy in the Japanese version of Journey to the West is a kappa.
Those are some serious observation skills you have @johnb. I’m happy if I’m able to register the subbing, facial expressions, and a general impression of the sets and wardrobe 😉
I actually appreciate that Cdramas do give us opposite gender platonic relationships AND do them justice/write them well. Like, people of the opposite gender CAN be simple friends and it doesn’t have to be anything else
Loved the way the show gradually revealed more about Feng Bao Bao, not only her own history, but also her relationship with Zhang Chu Lan. She was as much the lead as he was — “I Am Nobody” applies to her, too, in a different but equally valid way.
