Yoo Seung Ho

The smoldering gaze of Yoo Seung Ho can most definitely render a fangirl of any age weak in the knees.  Partner that with maturity, poise, intelligence, and affable charm and he becomes downright lethal!  In fact, he becomes a fangirl dream.  When I watch Yoo Seung Ho, I always have to pause a moment to remind myself that he is all of twenty years old!  Building his acting resume since the age of 7 and settling into that wickedly intense smolder by age 16, I could no longer deny his rightful place here as a worthy K-Shot of Hot.

Under THAT Umbrella…eh, eh, eh

You know me, in anticipation of precipitation
Stack chips for the rainy day…
~Rhianna (Umbrella)

I never cease to amaze myself with the predicaments I often find myself in when going about my business of trying to find, obtain or do something, and the ensuing (and often amusing) adventures that invariably follow as a result.  The tale of this umbrella is no exception.

K-Poppin’


IMG_0560

If I had my K-drama moment the other day at the Coex Mall and the Bongeunsa Temple, then I had a bit of a K-Pop situation today when I hunted down (in the rain) S.M. Entertainment, JYP and Cube.  Let me get this out of the way first, I did not see any K-pop stars in the flesh.  I saw some reasonable facsimiles thereof.

The motto for Myeong dong should be “Go Big or Go Home!”  I had read that Myeong dong was a shopper’s paradise.  Absolutely, one hundred percent correct.  And for this rainy Sunday evening, it was on and poppin’ throughout the streets of Myeong dong!

Slowly, Seoul….Slowly

IMG_0484

Ok, I admit that I have been a little out of whack since July 10 and I admit that I probably should be going gung ho here, here in Seoul lapping up all the sights and sounds.  I am, albeit at a slower pace.  I knew when I planned this trip that I was picking the time of the year where it most probably rains the most – but is kind of fitting for the task that was hand, right?

The Day Ji Hoon Got Discharged

Ji Hoon Discharge Day1

Sergeant Jeung Ji Hoon’s duty is complete.  He can put the last 21 months behind him and get back to doing what he does best.  Oh wait, he does a few things pretty well, come to think of it!  Well, just do anything but be soldier in the ROK Army.  He has done that pretty well and can now just file it away as something else he has accomplished and accomplished successfully.  That will suffice for me!
