Hotel del Luna has one more weekend and if you have any drama recs that we can bitch about, just tell me. Mind you. I avoid political and legal dramas because it’s no fun looking in the mirror. I might check out: 1. “Vagabond” with Lee Seunggi and Suzy. I’ve been waiting for this since […]
Bitch Talk: Rent an Oppa
@agdr03’s comment on our 4th year anniversary had me thinking that, yeaaahh, she’s right. I do get obsessive about my analysis. So to lighten me up, I’m sharing these two videos on renting an oppa.

Don’t Cry for Me, Argentina!
Sing to the tune of “Don’t Cry for Me, Argentina.” It won’t be easy. You’ll think it strange When I try to explain where I’ve been, That I still need my dramas after all that I’ve seen. You won’t believe me. All you will see is a weary traveler. Although my luggage was lost […]
Bitch Talk: On Chemistry and Cinematography
I often read gushing comments from fans about cinematography of a kdrama and chemistry of an onscreen couple. When I don’t see an explanation to back up these claims, I mentally deduct 50 points from the drama for attracting airheads. The presence of airheads warns me that the director has relied on the visuals because […]
Bitch Talk: In Search of Back Hugs
Just lead me to them. Tell me your favorite back hugs or give me the youtube and I’ll post them here. Now that I’m married I like back hugs. But when I was young and single, any guy who crept up behind me and wrapped his arms around my waist, would end up with an elbow […]

Notre-Dame de Paris
So this is how it feels like to lose a childhood home to fire…. credit: Francois Guillot/AFP/Getty Images I never knew that Notre-Dame occupies a big space in my consciousness until now that a vast part of it is gone. I remember sitting on uncomfortable chairs wedged between my strict mother and my strictER brother. […]
He’s Psychometric: Got Milk?
I haven’t decided which one I’m going to use as a banner for this show. This? Or this? The “got milk?” was a successful slogan used by the US milk producers and dairy farmers associations to promote milk consumption since the 1990s. (edit: Apparently, the ads were discontinued in 2014.) The famous tagline was created […]
Bitch Talk: List of Top Idol-Actors
Because it’s April Fools’ Day, I’m opening up my Top 4 list to other Idol-Actors. These are my original Fab Four: 1. Siwan of ZE:A I like him because he’s a thinking actor.
