lol. Today’s headline in The Mirror almost gave me a heart attack: South Korea to start turning computers off in the evenings to force people to stop working late For a nanosecond, I panicked because I only read half the headline. I was like, “Huh?? What about the sites like KBS, MBC, and tvN streaming […]
Bitch Talk: Drama Recommendations??
What dramas are you watching now? Can you recommend good romcoms? Even old ones will do? I want something light-hearted. My good friend mslee writes that she’s juggling quite a number of new dramas lately. “#myhusbandmrOh #evergreen (that man Oh Soo) #thegreattemptation #marrymenow (shall we live together)” But I’m still searching for my kdramas. The […]
Bitch Talk: I’m Back
I said I was a Bitch, not a Goddess. After enduring three long weeks without kdrama, two hotels in foreign lands, and one nasty fall from a @#$@#% bed, I’m back to bitch about dramas. What the hell is wrong with you, Hong sisters??!! I was expecting a nice romantic ending when I downloaded the […]
Bitch Talk: Shoutout to Dorotka
I swear I don’t filter the comment box so I don’t know why some of the messages come through and some don’t. Probably some messages are fated to be?? Some days, I feel like my wordpress is taunting me, too. credit: letsflytoasiarenata I happened to check my email yesterday and I saw this from Dorotka. […]
Bitch Talk: No Blog for Lent?
Originally I intended to give up blogging for Lent but after … let me calculate… about 40 hours of abstaining from visiting this blog, I had to reconsider my plans out of respect for my five loyal followers. (Thank you, followers!!) In lieu of blogging, I’ll give up wine for Lent. OhGong will have a non-drinking companion […]
Bitch Talk: Why Can’t OhGong Smell Lotus Blood?
Karen raised a good question in one of the posts, and some of you might miss this so I’ll bring it up as one of our Bitch Talk. This was my response: 🤔🐒I don’t know why OhGong can’t smell the lotus blood. You see, I’m unfamiliar too with the Monkey King stories and there’s nothing […]
Just Bitching: What Was Your First (Asian)Drama?
My first Asian drama was a lakorn. (Long story short: I thought it was porn. 😇🤦♀️😂) I still remember the title, Apple of My Eye. But I can’t remember anything else about the show except that the male lead was a blind man staying in Paris with his contractual bride to seek treatment for his […]
Bitch Talk: Goong’s Shipping Skirmishes, part 2
Twelve years after the kdrama Goong was televised, we still have unfinished shipping wars to settle. 😂 I brought up Goong in passing while talking about 2nd male leads I preferred to the actual heroes. Your Highness. replied and said this comment: I did! I loved Yul Goon. See? I still remember his name. I […]
Bitch Talk: Your Top 10 Favorite Dramas
I must not be a bitch after all. I’ve to return my bitch membership card. I was listing my ten favorite kdramas when I noticed a common feature. Most of my favorite kdramas are mellow. In no particular order: 1. My Sassy Girl -A sageuk romcom with JooWon and Oh Yeon Seo. I preferred the […]
Bitch Talk: Twitter’s Welcome Mat
Yesterday, I was on twitter (Had my first tweet! I’m in the mainstream of social media now /sarc). There was a hashtag trending #MyWelcomeMatWouldRead. If I was single, this would be mine. Only kdrama bitches would understand. But this would be the other mat … as you come in from the garden. Petty petty petty
Habaek: On Shin Sucky One’s Terrible Acting
I groused about Oh Yeon Seo’s terrible ingénue act in Hwayugi, but I can forgive her because she redeems herself in the snarky scenes. But Shin Se Kyung was all-around ghastly in Habaek that, for the sake of my poor heart, I dropped that show a few minutes into Episode 4. She seemed to possess […]
Bitch Talk: Lee Seo Jin Oppahjussi
My friend nonski dropped by and added another name to our ever growing list of oppahjussi or ahjussioppa (sounds like “Ah! Juicy oppa”). She said this: My Oppa: (pardon, I am not in the position to call them oppa but still…) … Lee Soo Jin because of his cockiness. Yes, how can I forget Lee […]
Bitch Talk: Song Seong Heon Oppahjussi
Hey there, I’ve detected another oppahjussi, Oppa’s Goddess! Song Seong Heon. How could I have forgotten about him? Oh yeah, right … because I bleached him out of my mind after his disastrous role in that kdrama Dr Jin. I’m sorry that his romance with Ms Disney’s Mulan fizzled out but heyyyy, her loss is our gain. […]
Just Bitching: Luxury Cars in Kdramas
Pet Peeve #24 Chaebol people and rich characters drive luxury cars. They don’t drive cheap cars without all the latest safety features, and I wish kdrama writers would clue in on the newest technology. Look, I’m not remotely interested in cars. As long as it gets me to my destination, I’m fine with any four-, […]
