Fluxus strikes back

   Because anything is better than reading about key-hole shape tombs in Korea and Samhan tribes. I've been suffering lately from Tei withdrawal, listening obsessively to his 4th album and stalking Fluxus YT. This way, I present new MV of Annyeongbada/Bye Bye Sea (their vocalist clearly saw Molko in his best make-up period). Song is awesome and MV is damn nice as well. Apart from that, another song that has been on my loop since some time already.

And since I have nothing to report ( I mean I would, but that would deem me insane) of any value, just two songs today.

Oh, and btw. Ga... Asia Princes cut his hair. Let's make February's end international mourning day for Princess' curls.

Anyone knew 'some angel' had Tokyo fanmeeting? Yeah, this is why it's called 'fanmeeting', not 'let the whole WORLD bow down to my glory'. Especially when you have nothing to show really.

Star Special Lecture Show

 

No way, Korea really does know the term 'gay'? But still can't differentiate between homosexual, transsexual and transvestite.

 

Oppa didn't... ooh, it's eonni!

   New semester started and I had no time to make a proper post, but I just got back from work (yes, this semester also on Saturdays), filled meself with tortilla (I'll starve until Monday after that, I bet), ready to roll in the deep. With Kpop.

My oh my, so much happened! I don't remember now, but I don't think I was THIS busy updating myself with western entertainment world when I was misguided then and it was before I discovered one true path leading to enlighte... to rofl, OK.

This is the only moment: Kim Junsu

One Junsu interview to grace our mundane, grey lives.

Please, Junsu, stop getting more and more perfect (as if it was even possible). 

Pay attention what this flawless being says about entertainment and being an idol.

2011 Kdrama OSTs

   Bad thing is - there wasn't any OST that I would buy in a heartbeat. There were some nice songs that fitted the drama, yet nothing as spectacular and powerful as, let's say, Chuno OST or Revenge of Gumiho OST. Oh yes, 2010 was a good year for dramas. Maybe last year of some quality in main 3 broadcasts' productions.

But if I had to pick up the best score - it would be NToG and What's Up! But the second drama started in December and ended in February, so it's not entirely 2011 one.

History of the Salaryman

   Title sounds painfully boring, right? The plot tells actually nothing more. Synopsis, according to koreandrama.org is even worse: "‘Salaryman Chohanji’ depicts the trial and tribulations of the average salaryman, from humble beginnings to success. This drama portray the salaryman’s loneliness and isolation, struggles, sorrows, hopes and successes in a realistic light." I mean, how funny can a series about stocks, something, managers be?

I started this because one wicked girl wrote she loves it. This particular girl may be maknae, but damn, she's not young to guttering at all. And damn she's right. The series is hilariously funny.

Arrow – the pointy thing

The road to Rivendell is... oh no, wait, wrong story.

   Weirdly enough, this movie’s title is simply “Bow" that evolved into Arrow – The Ultimate Weapon. Don’t know who came up with this brilliant idea. There is also another title - War of the Arrows. Each one better than the previous one. Despite this, and despite the hype, this is a really nice movie. OK, maybe not everyone will like it, because it's a historical movie. And it's not shiny and silky at all.

There are movies that are pretentious and there are critics that are pretentious. Pretentious movies try to show trivial things as if those were uncomprehensible, transcendental ideas that our simple and unsophisticated minds can't possibly comprehend. Those artsy movies that show plastic bag in the wind for 20 minutes. Pretentious critics, on the other hand, try to find the second, third and maybe even 20th meaning in a cornflakes CF. 

I have only one criterion to judge movies - my personal opinion that may be summarized to - like/dislike. I'm a simple girl, I do like Ockham's razor theory. If a movie is about a bow, I will not try to find its hidden meaning about one's own destiny etc.

I Believed I Was an Angel

   Here's the thing, the beginning of this translated interview starts exactly like the rest, so I spared you talk about café in Samcheong-dong, flower boy past blah blah.

They did write “he carried the manly aura” around, though.

Some Junsu in our lives

The first performance of Elisabeth is over. First reviews come.

So smile, everybody!

   If there is one thing I truly hate (no, not Diva-ness this time :P) - it's laziness. I had small incident with people's stupidity again, so I had to take meds that knocked me off my feet, but after 2 hour long sleep, I'm back! You missed me?

While making cuts few days ago, I made one I totally forgot about, because I named it "11a". Turns out, it's the smiling combination from Padam Padam ep 19. That was such a bright and lovely moment.
So here you go.
