IM YourOnlyOne

Hahaha true true. I like to share =))

Yep, it's understandable. ^_^ I'm like one of the few from Gen XY who still participate in online forums. =))

Glad to have helped in bridging cultures. ^_^

"Prophet's Restaurant" was probably aired here in the Philippines back then and I just don't remember it. But

Sunguri dangdang sungdangdang.
Sugusugu dangdang sungdangdang.

was a thing in my circles.

Since the show was a 1986 show, and it was also the year when the Philippines (and Korea) toppled the Martial Law government, yeah, there were probably a lot of Asian shows aired back then because of lack of content and the sudden freedom in airing whatever stations want.

The most popular in airwaves back then were mainland China, Hong Kong, and Taiwan Wuxia shows followed by Japanese Anime. Korean not so much, as far as I remember, though Betamax and VHS tapes were commonly passed around with Korean shows.

In the K-pop scene, 1st Generation K-pop were aired here in the Philippines and also passed around in cassette tapes. It's why I listen to a lot of 1st Generation K-pop (1992 to 2002).

I was born in the early 1980s, considered as Gen XY (experienced and grew up in a Gen X and Gen Y world). Elementary in the 80s and early 90s. High School in mid-90s. College in late 90s.

LOLs.

When there are no sequels, people complain. When there are sequels, they're accused of "milking the franchise".

In Korea (actually in most Asia-Pacific cultures):

1. Wives are not required to use their husband's surname

2. Children generally carry their father's surname

3. Children can choose to carry their mother's surname (or the parents chooses it for them)

4. Korean names, especially surnames, when transliterated into Latin, looks similar or the same but in reality are not. The registered Hanja is different even though the transliteration into Latin is the same; or even if the Hangul is similar; or even if the pronunciation is the same. What matters is the Hanja.

5. There are also cases wherein the Hanja, the Hangul, and pronunciation are all the same but they are not related at all … as in never ever no matter how far back you trace their lines. - Not because they changed their surname to it, it just so happen their ancestors do have the same.

6. There are also people who changed their surname to one they have no blood/ancestral relation with.

7. Adopted, never blood related, but their ancestors took in the name when they were adopted.

8. Titles can also affect their surname. Or their descendants adopted the title as their surname instead of using their actual surname.

From 9 stars to 10 stars. The best so far of all the life drama / true-to-life stories I've watched - from any region/country.

They portrayed the different dynamics of each family member. How each person thinks. How their decisions and emotions play with the other members of the family.

I guess this is why the Filipinos and Koreans are close, our family-structure and connections are similar, if not exactly the same. Extended families are a thing and the closeness (or lack thereof in some cases) between members and extended families are something many other nations/cultures doesn't have and will never understand.

This drama, the various different stories they portrayed, the relationships, the dynamics, the REALITY of it all, LIFE itself, well done. WELL DONE!

Oh, I see. Thank you for clarifying!

Yep. Even in pants pockets. Easy access. At least that's how it was back then.

Personally, I no longer use dental floss since there are brands which are not healthy at all. Much better to invest in organic toothpastes and make it a habit to regularly brush. Hehe.

I used to. I personally know people who do as well. Hahaha. :p

That scene was actually subtle … what it showed was Gen X and Gen XY were too conscious about the health of their teeth and gums, as compared to Gen Z who no longer carried floss. Hahaha.

But that still didn't answer the question why Miho is "dirty". It was not her fault she got "infected" and having a disease (in this case a biological weapon) is not "dirty".

So, that finally confirmed what the experiments were about … creating a biological weapon.

ep14

Wow. Episode 13 was a crazy. Must watch!

Ooh, that's an interesting twist.

I wonder if the Doctor is the son born within a wedlock, since the current owner was born out of wedlock.

And speaking of the Dohan owner, who was that? He looks like JYP, lols.

PD NA! SEASON 2 IS A MUST!

Na Yeon was different, she's the obvious one. While On Jo was the subtle one. Also, Na Yeon was annoying in a bad way, while On Jo was annoying in a good way. ^_^

Good point. Done!

oops sorry about that, forgot to do it the usual way I do it. (supposed to be a separate reply.)
