    Super Show 5 Manila: The boys are back

    October 28, 2013 - By 

    Initial feels: Tired from an unfamiliar wave of stress from work. Worried that I am getting too old for this. But then again I felt the same way in the past 2 Super Shows. And again I was perplexed by the average age of the crowd. I know Super Junior‘s fan base is still mainly carried by the teens and pre-teens, which begs the question: how the heck are they able to afford the price of admission? (Think 8,000++ for Lower A and B seats.) My mother will surely never be generous enough to concede and feed a fan girl’s appetite.…

    Review: Now I Know Why It’s Called ‘Skip Beat’

Donghae shares the man’s story in his Cyworld entry below, and his attempts with Siwon to give the man faith and hope. If this story has touched you, pass it on, and translate it if you can.

    Review: It’s Okay, Daddy’s Girl

    March 6, 2011 - By 

    Not sure really, if this will come out as a review, cos I feel lazy. But I promise to spam with pictures. I sincerely think those who watched only for the idols will not be disappointed–both for the overspill of cute guys in the drama and for the drama itself. SBS drama It’s Okay, Daddy’s Girl 괜찮아, 아빠 딸 / Gwaenchanha, Appa Ttal is not without its faults, not without a few unrealistic chinks in the plot here and there. For one thing they had the gayest, wimpiest antagonist ever, plotting his evil plans with his stocky backpack in tow, thick-rimmed…
