I will say that you convinced there were speckles of potential, but I won't be convinced that it wasn't that bad. Matter of fact, your hilarious article has further cemented that it was, indeed, that bad.

It was all the stories outside of the main one that kept most people locked in who would have otherwise dropped at episode. I wanted to drop it when they walked to where the Hollywood sign is from a house on the beach. I used to live in LA so it's a mystery how I got through the first part. And yes, poor people cannot afford a ticket to run off to America on a whim. Having been to Korea twice, I can confirm this.

The editors have called in sick!
It's interesting, because my articles with perfect grammar would be picked over for minor things yet...

I am quite shocked to see Ueno is in this. Shocking to see a big Japanese actor as a female lead in a Korean drama period, and along with a huge K-pop star to boot. Too bad I really don't care for her as an actress. This definitely is something rare.

I feel the exact same way about Shin Se Kyung...I had to drop many dramas because of her (same goes for Park Shin…
I am not alone!!! She is right on the same level of I-can't-stand-her with Park Shin Hye and the only thing I've ever seen the girl in is the first 2 episodes of the Scents show.

I loved and definitely recommend the original season of Let's Eat... which is precisely why I'll be avoiding that…
Right?!?! I mean, what was even the point of all that if they were going to go this route?

I'll give Yoochun and SSK's drama a shot. I've only watched SSK's acting in Gu Family Book, and I didn't find…
Shin Se Kyung was in Gu Family Book? Did she play an uncredited role?

I say take it down, too. An article about illegal streaming site closing and you post the other ones in the comments section. This site has great SEO and will prob come up on the first page of Google for a search about this news.

It definitely DOES matter. Why draw unwanted attention?

LoL, someone messaged me to ask me what "Mena, anata no parfait seikastu shutoku suru!" means. Thought I'd give the answer here, too.

Translation: Everyone, get your parfait life!

THHIS WAS AWESOME! Insightful, entertaining, educational, easy to understand & it makes you want to take an airplane…
You know, that's one terrible aspect of going there for me... the flight. It was brutal!! 17 hours to Tokyo. I don't even want to think of the total time it took me to get to my hotel in Kyoto with connecting flight and 4 different trains. If I'm going, I'm staying for a while, lol.

Kinishinaide! And I'm not sure how I'd share the Italy trip with everyone, lol. I think I'd only be able to do that on my own profile, unfortunately.

This was absolutely the best article I have ever read about Japanese foods. While wikipedia explains only about…
Aww, thanks, my happy bunny! I tried to provide the type of information I would want to have if I was going somewhere new not knowing much. I've heard some people say that even though they enjoyed visiting Japan, they wished they had known more about native life so they could've had a less touristy trip. Outside of those tourist places, not a lot of people in Japan speak much English. So, it can be intimidating trying to go off the tourist path. I hope this helps people feel more confident about exploring the food there if they are to ever visit. :-)

U have to tell us: 1) How did u get a penpal?! I think we're wishing for international friends. 2) In what ways…
Like I wrote mutya down below, I met my penpals through interpals.net about 4 years ago. I think it's a lot different. Things were changing around the time I left the site towards the end of 2012. I started off writing long letters electronically at first, then we started doing snail mail. Now, we use phone apps and Facebook, but still send each other gifts for different occasions or postcards. My lovely penpal in Italy bought me a travel journal for my birthday last year (delivered right on the day) to use on my trip to Asia. I can say I have a stronger bond with my penpals than I do with my friends here. Can't even get them to read a short email, lol.

I learned Japanese on my on through methods I found worked best for me. I don't like being able to speak a language, but be illiterate, so I always learn the alphabet first. I create practice worksheets for myself. I learned the Korean alphabet in about 3 weeks. For Japanese, I only know Hirigana as of now which is what Children use, lol. It's hard since they use all three writing systems at once in sentences.

And yes, he knew English already, but he doesn't speak it as well as he reads/writes it. We had little notepads with us to help us out. His wife barely knows English, so I felt sad at not being able to speak with her fluidly but it still worked with the Japanese I knew. :-)

They approached me on interpals.net. We've been penpals since 2011, so it was great to finally meet. I can tell you it definitely takes patience and effort. I had a decent share of duds. I have another long-term penpal in Italy I hope to visit this year. :-)
