Hanukkah sameach, Old American Lady and to all our Jewish lurkers! May the miracle of light shine every day. I’m only Jewish by association: first, because I’ve family members who converted to Judaism for marriage. And second, because Jesus was a Jew. When I was young, I wondered why Passover was mentioned so many times […]
Happiness: Ep 7 Quick Takes
1. The Penthouse Guy When I was listing the positives and negatives of each tenant in Apartment, I said that the Penthouse guy was an “asset” to have. Agree, @nrllee. I peg him as a rich kid. Probably in tech, because of his geeky outfit in Episode 2. But he gave SaeBom a mask, didn’t […]

Jirisan: Ep 10 The Serial Killer
By Episode 10, many of us here on this blog have already deduced that Kim Sol, the cultural anthropologist, is the serial killer. To our theory, let me add a few points: A. The trophies The cave where YiKang and HyunJo hid from the bear is the place where the serial killer kept his “trophies” […]
Happy Thanksgiving!
Edward Winslow. It astounds me that in the US today that most people would know more about trashy celebrities like Cardi B, Madonna, LeBron James, and Ariana Grande, than this man to whom Americans owe Thanksgiving. Edward Winslow chronicled the events that happened to the Pilgrims aboard the Mayflower ship after they landed at Cape […]
Happiness: Episode 6 Highlights
I’ll write Ep 5 Highlights later… A. The opening scene 1. I was wrong. In one of my comments, I theorized that the Pharma Boss lusted after LtCol Han’s wife. As it turned out, he showed symptoms of the disease because he took the medicine Next. He was gulping down fluids before Han was called […]

Happiness: Episode 4 Highlights
Without further ado. 1. The hug For SaeBom, happiness is tied to relief that she isn’t trapped all alone in that apartment. If the world as she knows it must fall apart, at least, she has YiHyun with her. This reminded me of the comic strip “Love is…” She’s different from the mistress of Unit […]
