Chuseok is the time of year when all the pretty boys in my various feeds dress up in hanbok and I am 100% here for it. :)

It’s the sexist version of the ‘what these people need is a honky’ trope.

It’s like when abusers say ‘look what you made me do’ after they hit you.

Yum! (Actually, I don’t particularly care for sundubu-jjigae but absolutely believe it would be tasty to someone who doesn’t loathe that particular type of tofu.) :)

The twin moles above GOT7 Jaebum’s eye are a national treasure.

Sorry to hear you’re feeling ostracized. I hope you find the place you feel happy and comfortable!

In a Truly Terrible Shortform Chinese Drama, the conniving mistress usually starts texting the wife with gloating texts about her affair with the husband and my question is always... why don't you just block the bitch? :)

Product placement!

It wasn’t until I got into kdramas that I realized my favorite sushi place when I lived in California was run by Koreans. :)

There are a looooot of Koreans where I live, so there are several PB’s like a stone’s throw away.

Apparently mine was The Eternal Love.

I did manage to fall asleep shortly after this post, but woke up at 7:45 with violent hiccups. Do not recommend. 0/5 stars.

Am I wide awake still at 3:40AM because of heartburn? Yes, I am.

While they are Truly Terrible, they are obviously on to something because I cannot stop watching them even though they are absolute trash. :)

There’s a refreshing lack of overt torture and the ML CEO is not ridiculously gullible so it seems reasonable that he would be a successful business man.

Watched #cdrama Depth of Love on iQIYI & quite enjoyed it. Really good chemistry, surprising amount of spicy scenes, & an all over satisfying plot. I would consider this as a couple of steps up from the Truly Terrible Shortform Chinese Dramas I generally get on YouTube.

Yes! The guy is always terribly surprised to discover that the woman is Over His Shit!

This ultimately falls under the FAFO umbrella. The latter half of the drama is just her & a bunch of other people explaining to him that he is delulu & him just not getting it. Generally he blames everyone but himself for losing her.

There is subgenre of TTSCD* that I would call Man Thinks His Shit Don’t Stink. Generally the hallmarks are a guy treating his wife of X# of years terribly, tortures her in various ways along with the conniving whore & somehow thinks that it’s all fine, she’ll forgive him, b/c she loves him so much.

Just finished Thunderbolts (which I loved) and it reminded me so much in the best of ways of the Champions games @carlrigney.bsky.social ran.

Picture of a red octopus throwing rocks at a blue octopus with the headline “Female octopus have been recorded throwing rocks at males, who constantly harass them trying to mate”.

So you’re saying she would choose the bear?

It is 5:15AM. I… am still wide awake. This seems problematic.

Asian dramas have given me a whole new appreciation for the Adam’s Apple.

It has a lot of catchy AF music. :)

I’d forgotten how off the rails When The Phone Rings gets towards the end. (Not in a bad way.)

Ah, the path of least resistance.

I cannot stop watching them and they are utter trash. :) I am curious about your questions!

Once again last night I proved that I cannot be trusted with reading any of the @msagara.bsky.social Elantra related books after 10Pm.

Many trashy vertical cdramas on YouTube have a conniving mistress going ‘you can’t have my man!’ to the FL all the time. And I am here, out loud, going ‘no one wants your trash man, you can have him’.
