CHAERI'S MASTERLIST

FALL IN THE SNOW

❅ Before the fall

❅ KBS news:

Good evening I'm Kim Ji-yeon and today January 9, 2023, we bring you urgent and concerning news about one of the most prominent figures in the K-pop world. Chaeri, the popular member of the internationally acclaimed K-pop group BTS, was involved in a snowboarding accident while spending her free time on the slopes during the group's temporary hiatus.

According to reports, Chaeri was snowboarding alongside a small group of friends, including her cousin Kang Haerin - emerging member of the KPOP group NewJeans - when the unfortunate incident occurred. However, the exact nature and extent of her injuries remain unknown.

Emergency response teams were swiftly deployed to the scene, but the resort's remote location and inclement weather conditions have complicated the situation. As a result, updates on Chaeri's condition are still pending.

Fans around the world are expressing their deep concern and rallying together to support their beloved idol. On social media, the hashtag #StayStrongChaeri is trending as the global K-pop community unites in solidarity.

In this moment of uncertainty, it's essential to respect Chaeri's privacy and allow her agency, Big Hit Entertainment, time to provide accurate information to the public.

We'll be diligently monitoring the situation and will bring you updates as soon as they become available. Our thoughts are with Chaeri, her loved ones, and her devoted fans during this worrisome time.

Please stay tuned to KBS for the latest developments on this developing story. Thank you for joining us, and we'll continue to keep you informed as events unfold.

❅ Haerin and Namjoon texts:

❅ KBS news:

We have received reports that Chaeri has been transported to a hospital following her snowboarding accident. 

BTS members and Chaeri’s father were spotted at the medical facility, making people question once again the severity of her condition.

BigHit Entertainment's silence doesn’t help, as the public craves answers about their beloved celebrity's well-being and the true nature of the incident.

NA: From conspiracy theories to heartfelt prayers, fans and non-fans alike are seem to be unable to think of anything else on social media.

Chaeri's status as a global star has turned the hospital into a media circus, with fans camping outside, eagerly awaiting any glimpse of hope or news.

We'll be keeping a close eye on this developing story, and as soon as any official information emerges, we'll bring it to you.

Stay tuned for further updates, and join us in sending thoughts and prayers for Chaeri and those close to her during this tense period.

❅ Aurora's impact in the event

The Mountain-Wandering Influencer: Aurora 

In the vast world of social media, there exists a wandering soul who roams through snow-capped peaks and unimaginable mountain landscapes. This person is Aurora, the influencer who knows the heartbeat of the mountains better than anyone else. Through her adventures, she takes us on an endless journey through the wonders of the world, from freeride landscapes to the comforts of mountain lodges.

With a glance at her stories, it seems there isn't a mountain Aurora hasn't climbed or a trail she hasn't traversed. She lives the rush of snowboarding down the slopes and the warmth of a cup of hot chocolate in her mountain cabin. Oh yes, the cabin: her home, where her faithful companion, a domesticated wolf named Accalia, resides.

But let's get to the heart of the current events. Aurora became known not only for her stunning shots but also for being one of the first sources of information about the incident involving BTS's Chaeri. Yes, it was her, through her Instagram profile and her tweets, who informed the world even before the news agencies had a word to say.

Her tweets describing the scene and her concern for Chaeri went viral, gaining followers at a rapid pace. With each update and detail shared from her mountain location, her following grew. Aurora not only shared the news but made us feel like we were right there with her, on the slope, in the midst of the tension.

Her passion for sharing and informing had a significant impact on the K-pop community. Her story showcased the power of social media in connecting people in crucial moments. And this is how Aurora Frost, the mountain-wandering influencer, demonstrated that a simple post can unite hearts and souls in a way no other means of communication can achieve.

❅ BIGHIT’S STATEMENT

Hello. This is BIGHIT Music.

We would like to share with you important communication regarding our artist, Chaer. We are aware that many of you have been affected by the news of her accident and we wish to provide updated information about her health status.

On January 9, during a snowboarding session, Chaeri was involved in an incident. The incident resulted in a fractured ankle, a partially dislocated wrist, and other minor injuries. Immediately following the incident, rescue teams and medical squads were activated, providing necessary care and transporting her to the hospital for a thorough medical evaluation.

Currently, Chaeri is receiving the necessary medical care and attention. Doctors are closely monitoring her health condition and planning her recovery path. Her health and well-being are our top priorities, and we are doing everything possible to ensure she receives the best care. 

We kindly ask for your understanding in respecting Chaeri's privacy and that of her loved ones during this sensitive time. We understand that many questions may arise, but please await further updates from us or official representatives.

We will strive to provide further information as soon as we have updates on Chaeri's condition and her recovery journey.

Thank you for your understanding and constant support.

❅ KBS news, a few days later

Breaking News: BTS's Namjoon Speaks Out on Chaeri's Accident

Good evening, I'm Park Min-ji. As the world anxiously awaits updates on Chaeri's condition, we've managed to get exclusive insight from BTS's leader, Namjoon, also known as RM.

Sources close to the group have confirmed that our team was able to approach Namjoon for a statement on Chaeri's current situation. In a brief but heartfelt response, Namjoon conveyed, "It's been a really tough time for us. Chaeri is not just our bandmate; she's our sister. We're all praying for her recovery, and we're just grateful that she's alive. We're just trying to be there for her and her family right now."

This statement provides a glimpse into the emotional struggle the BTS members are facing as they navigate this challenging time. The global K-pop community continues to rally around Chaeri, sending an outpouring of support and well-wishes.

As we eagerly await further updates on Chaeri's condition, BTS fans worldwide are holding onto the hope that their beloved idol will recover swiftly. Stay tuned for more developments, and we extend our thoughts and prayers to Chaeri and the entire BTS family during this trying period. Thank you for joining us, and we'll keep you informed as the situation unfolds.

❅ How BTS help Chaeri

Jin

Jin, despite having just enlisted, obtained a special permission to visit Chaeri in the hospital as soon as possible. Several years earlier, Jin himself had been the one to teach her how to snowboard, nurturing her passion for the sport.

He couldn't believe that the accident might be attributed to any negligence on her part. Driven to unveil the truth, he took on the role of an advocate, actively working to expedite the investigation into the incident and urging the agency to initiate legal proceedings against the resort.

Even though the time spent with Chaeri in the hospital was limited, in skillfully offered solace through gentle gestures like a comforting kiss on the forehead and the reassurance of brotherly caresses, nfusing her with the courage needed to navigate the demanding journey of recovery.

Forced to depart early, Jin maintained his genuine concern for Chaeri's well-being through messages and phone calls, demonstrating his commitment to stand by her side even from a distance.

Yoongi

Yoongi was used to scold Chaeri for her eating habits. The girl went from often treating herself to junk-food snacks at all hours of the day and night - then complaining of stomach pains caused by the mix of sweet and salty foods - to almost starving for days whenever she worked too hard and forgot to eat.

Everyone knew it: the band members, the fans, the staff.

But when Chaeri was injured and had to rest, Yoongi always brought her something to feed her every time she visited. It didn't matter if it was a milka chocolate bar, a whole pizza, stuffed burgers from the most famous fast food restaurants, or anything else. Yoongi just wanted to make her smile.

He knew that Chaeri's recovery would also depend heavily on her mental state, and he wanted to do everything he could to alleviate the stress and anxiety that came with being injured and unable to perform.

Hoseok

Hoseok was always the one to lift Chaeri's spirits whenever she was feeling down, and her injury was no exception. Despite his busy schedule, he made it a priority to visit her in the hospital and the dorm every chance he got, bringing along gifts and telling her funny stories to make her laugh.

But it was during the physical therapy sessions that he truly shone. He would sit beside her, offering words of encouragement as she worked to regain her strength and mobility. And when Chaeri would become frustrated at her slow progress, Hoseok would take her hand and remind her that recovery was a marathon, not a sprint.

Together, they would do exercises and stretches that felt impossible at first, but gradually became easier with each passing day. And as Chaeri's confidence grew, Hoseok felt a sense of pride knowing that he had played a small but important role in her journey toward recovery.

Jimin

Jimin was the one who made sure that Chaeri never lost her passion for music during her recovery. He knew that losing your sense of purpose could be just as detrimental to your recovery as physical injuries. So, he would bring his guitar to her hospital room and serenade her with songs from their repertoire, sometimes even allowing her to sing along if she felt up to it.

Despite the pain of her injuries, Chaeri found solace in the music and the company of her bandmate. They would write silly lyrics and melodies together, to make days a little funnier

Jimin's infectious energy and positive attitude were contagious, and he helped to remind Chaeri that one setback didn't define her career or her identity. With his encouragement, Chaeri was able to find joy in the small victories of her recovery and remain optimistic about her future.

Taehyung

During Chaeri’s recovery, Taehyung noticed that her creative spirit couldn't be confined by the situation. One day he suggested her to focus on her fashion brand, using that time to breathe life into new projects.

Taehyung, with his innate passion for art and design, immediately got to work with Chaeri. They spent hours together sketching, discussing styles, fabrics, and colors. Together, they experimented with new ideas and concepts that would make her fashion brand even more distinctive.

They sat side by side for hours, immersed in creativity, with the sound of brushes and pencils filling the silence of the hospital room.

This collaboration not only led to a new fashion collection but also created a deeper bond between Taehyung and Chaeri, based on shared passions and mutual inspiration.

Together, they overcame not only the injury but also turned a challenging time into an opportunity for growth and creative realization for Chaeri and her fashion brand.

Namjoon

Namjoon, recognizing the emotional toll Chaeri's injury might be taking on her, became a steady pillar of support throughout her recovery. Understanding the unique challenges that come with being a global superstar forced to step back temporarily, he made it a priority to address not just the physical aspects of healing but also the emotional well-being.

During his visits, Namjoon would bring carefully curated playlists designed to soothe Chaeri's soul. He believed in the healing power of music and saw it as a way to transport her mind to a place of comfort and tranquility. 

In addition to music, Namjoon brought along a collection of movies—films that ranged from heartwarming classics to motivational documentaries. He understood that sometimes a good movie could provide a much-needed escape, allowing Chaeri to momentarily forget the challenges she was facing and find inspiration in different stories.

Beyond entertainment, Namjoon engaged her in thoughtful conversations about life, dreams, and the challenges they both had overcome. He shared his own experiences with navigating the pressures of fame and reassured her that taking the necessary time for recovery was not a sign of weakness but rather a testament to her strength.

His thoughtful gestures and genuine conversations created a safe space for her to express her real concerns and fears.

Jungkook

During Chaeri's recovery period, Jungkook went beyond providing emotional support and pleasant distractions; he also demonstrated practical commitment to facilitating her daily life. Taking on the role of a true friend and confidant, he became a constant source of comfort.

Jungkook volunteered to move back in with Chaeri in their old dormitory, as his idol activities were temporarily halted. His daily presence not only relieved Chaeri's loneliness, but also allowed Jungkook to be there for her at all times.

Throughout the day, Jungkook took care of practical tasks such as preparing meals, ensuring Chaeri had everything she needed, and assisting her with daily activities that her condition made challenging. This caring attitude underscored his tangible commitment to making Chaeri's healing journey as smooth as possible.

In addition, Jungkook continued to engage Chaeri in enjoyable activities, such as movie nights, gaming sessions, and simple conversations to divert her thoughts from the incident. 

His dedication to being there for Chaeri in every aspect of her daily life was evident.

George Harrison, backstage in Philadelphia, PA, on August 16, 1966; photo by Bob Bonis.

“[George showed us] his music room, which has one wall covered with the famous Harrison guitars, his collection of Indian instruments and a small jukebox standing just by the door. I looked at the titles on the jukebox and there were very few Beatle songs amongst them. The Beach Boys, Mamas and Papas, Lovin’ Spoonful, the Stones were all well represented.” - The Beatles Monthly, January 1967

“George Harrison’s Fab Forty… George — like all the Beatles, incidentally — has his own juke box at his Esher home. It’s in his ‘den.’ Along with tape recorder, radio and record player. […] But back to the juke box. It’s a KB. Maybe you saw it in the film ‘Help’? Says George: ‘It’s so much easier to have all my favorite records on the juke box at once. It saves me going through piles of records to find the ones I want. Then when I get sick of them, I just throw them out and put some new ones in.” - Tony Hall, Record Mirror, January 1, 1966

George’s Top Ten… 1 “Harlem Shuffle” — Bob and Earl 2 “Good Things Come To Those Who Wait” — Chuck Jackson 3 “Be My Lady”/“Red Beans and Rice” — Booker T and the MGs 4 “Please Crawl Out Your Window” — Bob Dylan 5 “Baby, You’re My Everything” — Little Jerry Williams 6 “Back Street” — Edwin Starr 7 “Work, Work, Work” — Lee Dorsey 8 “The Little Girl I Once Knew” — The Beach Boys 9 “My Girl Has Gone” — The Miracles 10 “I Don’t Know What You’ve Got /But It’s Got Me)” — Little Richard (“[P]arts one and two — the second is George’s favorite.”)

The rest… 11 “I Can’t Turn You Loose” — Otis Redding 12 “My Girl” — Otis Redding 13 “I Believe I’ll Love On” — Jackie Wilson 14 “Plum Nellie” — Booker T and the MGs 15 “Everything Is Gonna Be Alright” — Willie Mitchell 16 “A Sweet Woman Like You” — Joe Tex 17 “Something About You” — The Four Tops 18 “I Got You” — James Brown 19 “Ain’t That Peculiar” — Marvin Gaye 20 “Turn, Turn, Turn” — The Byrds 21 “See Saw” — Don Covay 22 “I’m Comin’ Through” — Sounds Incorporated 23 “Don’t Fight It” — Wilson Pickett 24 “Bootleg” — Booker T and the MGs 25 “I Ain’t Gonna Eat Out My Heart Anymore” — The Young Rascals 26 “Respect” — Otis Redding 27 “Try Me”/“Papa’s Got A Brand New Bag” — James Brown (“instrumentals”) 28 “I’ve Been Loving You Too Long” — Otis Redding 29 “All Or Nothing” — Patty Labelle and her Belles 30 “Pretty Little Baby” — Marvin Gaye 31 “Oowee Baby, I Love You” — Fred Hughes 32 “The Tracks of My Tears” — The Miracles 33 “Yum Yum” — Joe Tex 34 “Agent 00 Soul” — Edwin Starr 35 “Money” — Barrett Strong 36 “Some Other Guy” — Ritchie Barrett (“George’s ‘Revived 45’ list — he’s dug these since they first came out.”) 37 “It Wasn’t Me” — Chuck Berry 38 “Mohair Sam” — Charlie Rich 39 “Let Him Run Wild” — The Beach Boys 40 “Do You Believe In Magic” — The Lovin’ Spoonful

“George really knows his records. It’s always a pleasure to talk to him about them.” - Tony Hall, Record Mirror, January 1, 1966 (x)

[fostersffff]

If you're someone who's interested in collecting physical media, especially DVDs and blu-rays, I cannot overstate how good an investment a blu-ray drive for your computer is.

There are copious free resources that will allow you to digitize your collection for additional preservation and convenience... and I've placed them beneath this break!

MakeMKV: https://www.makemkv.com/

MakeMKV is the program I use for backing up blu-rays and DVD. It’s “free while in beta”, and as far as I can tell it’s going to continue to be in beta forever. You just need to register the program with the beta code, which can be found here: https://forum.makemkv.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=1053. If your registration ever expires, you can just go to that post and they’ll have it updated with a new one.

“MKV” is “Matroska Video”, which is a container format (named after the Russian nesting doll) that collects the video track, audio track(s), and subtitle track(s) all into one file, which is super convenient for anime, because that means you don’t need to worry about making separate files for different combinations of dubs and subs. My understanding is that this is, essentially, a lossless video copy, and I’ve done comparisons comparing screenshots taken from video playing off the disc and from the .mkv, and I haven’t been able to notice a difference. As for playing .mkv files…

VLC Media Player: https://www.videolan.org/vlc/

The Combined Community Codec Pack (CCCP): https://download.cnet.com/Combined-Community-Codec-Pack/3000-2139_4-10966585.html

VLC is my media player of choice for watching back the stuff I back up. I’m not 100% sure if you need to download the CCCP for this- my backups play fine on my tablet just using the VLC app, and I recently found out they even work off a USB stick plugged into a Samsung Smart TV- but it doesn’t hurt to have.

MakeMKV can also be directly integrated with VLC Media Player to play blu-rays right from the drive, which is tremendously valuable if you're not interest in/don't have the hard drive space for digitization. I think I’ve encountered maybe one thing that couldn’t be played off the disc with this solution, and that was fixed in a subsequent update to MakeMKV. The full breakdown of how to do that can be found here: https://stolafcarleton.teamdynamix.com/TDClient/1893/StOlaf/KB/ArticleDet?ID=128854.

MKVToolNix: https://mkvtoolnix.download/downloads.html

Different companies author discs differently, and I like to keep my stuff organized the same way, which is where this tool comes in. I won’t go into too much detail on this here, but if you ever need to split one large file into smaller files (for example, a disc has 9 episodes of a show to a single title/file, and you want to split them into individual episodes), edit or remove chapter information, or rename audio/subtitle tracks, this is the tool to do it. There's a lot to this, so I would suggest reading the official documentation, but I could also whip up a guide if people are interested.

HandBrake: https://handbrake.fr/

The video encoder for shrinking those backups down to size- my favorite example was getting all 49 episodes of G Gundam down from almost 300gb off-the-discs to just under 50gb. This is also going to be heavily dependent on how powerful your computer is, because encoding takes up a lot of resources. On my computer, which is by no means top-of-the-line, I’d say on average it takes about 50 minutes to encode a 24 minute episode of anime, and that increases exponentially the longer the source material is.

I got the settings I use in HandBrake from this incredibly detailed breakdown of how video encoding works: https://kokomins.wordpress.com/2019/10/10/anime-encoding-guide-for-x265-and-why-to-never-use-flac/#tldr-summary-for-x265-encode-settings. There's a lot of information there, too, but it also provides generic settings to plug in to HandBrake if you don't care to manually adjust the settings for each project you're doing.

And that’s everything I use for my process! A lot of this was trial and error with other programs that cost money, performed worse, and were generally aggravating to use. It's a bit of elbow grease, but the reward is that once something is digitized, you have it forever, exactly the way you want it.

On Repeat tag

Tagged by: @visualtaehyun - thank you so much, I love music tag games 💜💜

The game: Put your spotify On Repeat playlist on shuffle and post the first 10 songs!

I had to actually search for this since spotify seems to have hidden it from the 'for you' page (along with 'time capsule' which is a cornucopia of cringe but in a good way)

New Country - Stand by หล่อ

This song is to blame if my spotify wrapped ends up especially weird this year. I must have listened to it hundreds of times on repeat. New Country in general are such a fun group. I wish they'd release more music.

Putting the rest of it behind a cut because spotify tiles are HUGE

2. Fujii Kaze - Kiri Ga Naikara

I usually only listen to Japanese city pop but I make an exception for him 💜

3. HYBS, brb. - No One

I listen to a normal amount of HYBS, I swear.

4. Cocktail - ลั่นทม

This song is so beautiful and intricate in so many ways - just like IFYLITA. 😭

5. HYBS, slchld, asiatic.wav - Good Care

Ah yes, more HYBS. What a funny coincidence.

6. YourMOOD - ลาก่อน (Acoustic Version)

I'm usually not the biggest fan of acoustic versions over studio versions but this is so beautiful. I like it even better than the original.

7. SHOWNU X HYUNGWON - Play Me

Their whole mini-album is art. This is my completely unbiased opinion as an undercover monbebe.

8. HYBS - Tip Toe

I COULD STOP LISTENING TO HYBS IF I WANTED TO

9. YourMOOD - ชน

If I could rec only one song on this list it would be this one. Synths ✅ Overengineered 80s beats ✅ Amazing vocals ✅ Thaipop ✅

10. KB - be free

Negl I'm still trying to get back into onlyoneof and it's been what? two years since Love left (in my defence, tpop got in the way lmao). spotify put this into one of my playlists and it's so good. This is probably a sign to catch up with all of ooo's releases.

I'm tagging @thii-nii @bengiyo @hoppipolla @mooninagust @maxescheibechlinichacheli @slayerkitty @sparklyeyedhimbo (only if you feel like it of course 💜)

summer 2022.

well fam...has it been a minute or what? i realized i was getting more anxious to upload, because it seemed all too daunting. i have accepted that this will inevitably be a subpar rewind just because oh so much happened. and after this year i hope to get back to more frequent posts. any waayyy...

music.

‘world’ by seventeen. AKA SONG OF THE SUMMER. AKA OWNER OF MY HEART. AKA THE BESTEST TRACK EVER. it literally is full of sunshine and rainbows. it cures any ailment. i freaking love this, fills me for breakfast, lunch and dinner. it is the absolute best track. and it fills my heart. 10 out of 10 recommend.

seventeen. literally their whole discography. i had the immense pleasure to see them live during their north american tour. all i can say is that it was such a unique experience. listening to their music since debut, watching their survival show, and seeing them grow. it was wild to just see them, because when i first got into k-pop i never thought i would be able to experience a live show without going to korea. then to see the first group that got me into k-pop, host an arena tour…i was so emotional seeing them in real life. like we are talking ugly crying level. 

‘slam the door’ by ciipher. a complete an utter bop. thank you to ‘yoshified’ on youtube, because dang this person really recommends the best tracks. and i would never have had a complete summer playlist without this. 

‘scared’ by p1harmony. let me start by saying this was noisy but it an absurdly good way. like oh my goodness they just came for me like that.

nayeon. our queen. ‘pop’ and ‘no problem’ on repeat. we stan. (p.s. ready for jihyo’s solo) 

monsta x. ‘whispers in the dark’ and ‘if with u’ also on repeat. all the time. 

onlyoneof. the single tracks that they’ve released. i am in love with ‘be free’ by KB, and ‘begin’ by yu jung. and the music videos and the intertwining storylines, like yes please and thank you. 

newjeans. ‘you got me looking for AATTTTEEENNTTTIOOOOON’ catch me screaming their lyrics at the top of my lungs. the way they dropped their singles, like woah hold up. ‘hype boy’ definitely a favorite track. and ‘cookie’ is never played it makes me immensely uncomfy. i hope they stick to chill appropriate concepts, because come on hybe…

blackpink. the queens have returned and this album…controversial opinion….the title tracks were not it, but the B-sides. fammmmm these slayed it. catch me crying in the bathroom, i love them. 

‘after like’ by ive. how can they always release bops, and the b-side ‘satisfaction’ like come on stunning. 

’24/7’ by DKB. this track. i love that it comes in with the chorus. i freaking love it. 

‘my type’ by brb. this is a new group i discovered and love them. technically not k-pop, it’s in english, they are from singapore but i couldn’t not include because the vibes are there. and it sounds heavily influenced by k-r&b and i am here for it.

‘excuses’ by twlv. another chill bop. like this dude has an incredible voice, and he could sing my grocery list and i would love it. 

‘sexy nukim’ feat. RM by balming tiger. FAM. when this song dropped i was like WOOOAHHHHH. these artists’ style and groove, i can’t get over it. thank you namjoon for collaborating with them and putting them on my radar, because they pass the vibe check. 

‘us’ by moon jong up. randomly stumbled upon this gem, and i am so sad that there is not more content from this stunning human. 

‘mascara’ by XG. it’s a bop, i scream it. ‘baby girl don’t you ever be wasting your good energy’ like amen honey!

‘talk that talk’ by twice. it’s twice you know its gonna be a bop. the dance addicting. 

dramas & movies *spoilers ahead*

my mister. i would give this drama a 9 out of 10. we follow dong-hun who is really going through it, like bad. like his wife is having an affair with his boss, and his family is a mess. his brothers live with his mother, and they are kind of subpar not doing the most. he meets ji-an a young girl in a difficult situation, she is being harassed by loan sharks. things get shady when she comes to find out about the affair, and uses it to blackmail the vice president and she has to get dong-hun to leave the company. she obviously doesn’t go through with it, but fates get tangled, and i would be lying if i said i was upset that our main actors didn’t get up together. but i understand why, they learned a lot from each other. it was tragic, raw, and everything you want in a melodramatic drama. 

tomorrow. fam i started this drama for rowoon, but i finished it for soohyuk because dang….we follow jun-woong who is struggling to get a job after school but ends up in a coma and meets grim reapers. they come up with a plan to get him back to the world of the living by helping the crisis management team. this team’s goal is to save suicidal people. i loved the dynamics between the team, and i loved the ending of this drama. i would give this drama a 9 out of 10. i loved the style of it, each episode being a new situation and issue to solve. this was a difficult drama to watch at times, it obviously covers the trigger topics of suicide, domestic violence, and depression. the concept was unique and i loved how they offered reasonable ways to overcome and get necessary help. i loved the relationship that was unpacked between koo ryeon and joong-gil because it went so far back, and his choice to completely forget it because the situation pained him so much. but she remembered it all. i recall my heart breaking into a million pieces as their story unfolded towards the end. like there were not enough tissues to rescue all the tears.

like literally look at the way he looks at her. let me weep.

sh**ting stars. this drama was a 10 out of 10 cute fun summer drama. we are in the entertainment world with our girl han-byeol (lee sung kyung) as our leader of the PR team, and she actively manages gong tae-sung (king young-dae). he is the top actor, and their relationship is everything. she starts the drama unable to tolerate him, because she has known him since college. we come to find that he has always had feelings for her, and little misunderstandings had driven them apart. but my goodness you know that by the end of the drama they were together, and sooooo stinking cute. i loved their interactions. i also freaking loved how everyone ended up happy! like our second male lead was no second male lead, he got his own happy ending. and i loved the coworkers that ended up together in this drama too. like yes we stan character development all around! it was great!

sound of magic. i don’t know what i expected, but dang it was a musical and outright wild at times. i gave it a 9 out of 10. yoon a-yi is a high school student working hard to support her sister. she doesn’t have a supportive father because loan sharks drove him out of the home. na il-deung (hwang inyeop) competes with her to be top of the class. he likes her (obviously). our girl stumbles upon an amusement park and meets a magician there. he encourages her to believe in magic, and a quite odd relationship ensues. definitely not going to lie it was on my radar because my hwang inyeop is in it, and literally anything and everything he touches is gold to me. but it was incredible, and i loved all that they did in this drama, though it was short lived, i hope they will continue this story. 

yumi’s cells 2. i was hyped fam. really hyped about it. like yes ba-bi (jinyoung), he is our man. we stan, we love. men fail. he failed us, and i’m not going to lie did that bump my rating down to a 7…yes. yess it did. once again we follow our girl yumi, in her life through work, pursuing her dream of writing. achieving her goals. and seeing ba-bi be absolute trash. so yeah. i hate ba-bi and if anyone asks i never liked him. i am ready for season 3 to come through and give us a happy ending. i am deserving of this after surviving this long, only to be betrayed by ba-bi. 

dear m. FINALLY i got to see this gem after waiting forever (only) to see it. so sad about the delayed release because it would surely have taken over everything if it was a live drama. i loved the concept of always trying to figure out who ‘M’ was, and it looking like it was anyone and everyone. we follow joo-a who has been besties with min-ho (jaehyun) for forever, and they are at university together. we follow their university struggles as they get through the semester, and we meet their roomates, who are all great. and i loved that we got to see all their personalities develop and grow. there was also immense growth from joo-a, which we love to see. i loved all the characters we got to meet. and seeing jaehyun freaking slay, i stan. i would rate this an 8.5 out of 10.

weathering with you. this was an anime that i watched and it was stunning. i loved the concept. a high schooler runs away from home to tokyo. he befriends a girl who has the power to control the weather. it wrecked me emotionally and i loved it. i would give it a 7

studio ghibli: my neighbor totoro, ponyo, howl’s moving castle, spirited away. not me rewatching these studio ghibli titles. they are always a 10 out of 10 recommend. 

why her. once again hwang inyeop. my man coming through with the dramas that will make me cry. in this drama, we follow oh soo-jae a freaking boss lawyer. like the youngest partner at the best law firm in korea. she is driven out and gets demoted to be a professor at a law school. gong chan is a student there and it turns out they had met in the past. he was wrongly accused of murder and she was his public defendant, she was the only one who believed in him. but it turns out that she didn’t give the case her all as the defendant. but he knows her true intentions, and how she was blackmailed by the political moves happening. they all work together along with other students in their law clinic to uncover the truth. it was really frustrating/infuriating at times, because the head of the law firm is absolute utter garbage and the things he did were AWFUL. but overall i loved this drama. a 9 out of 10 recommend. 

the uncanny counter. i loved this one. we follow so mun who gets possessed by a spirit that rescues people on the verge of death, to hunt down evil spirits. these fellow counters operate out of a noodle shop. and we meet our crew of unlikely heroes here. i loved how they were a found family, and they all come together in various situations. there were so many hilarious laugh out loud moments imbedded in this quite sad theme. se-jeong is the best and i picked this one for her. i would rate it an 8.5 out of 10.

extraordinary attorney woo. if there was ever a green light drama this would be the one. a 10 out of 10 recommend. it was so precious, and i loved all the characters that we met. we follow woo young-woo an incredible bright individual who happens to be on the autism spectrum. she starts working at a law firm, and this brings about the best and worst in others. each episode was a new case, and we got to see her unique perspective on conquering each case. we also saw her relationships with others in the hanbada office. freaking fell in love with lee jun-ho, and her bestie from university yoon-kyung. they were always looking out. and we loved the character development that happened with their coworker joo jong-hyuk. this one shall get it’s own recap. because i have so many feelings and favorite moments. 

alchemy of souls. when i say i didn’t know what to do with my life when this gem of a drama ended, i literally did not know what to do. it was a top tier drama for me. like the characters, the set design, the world building. it has it all. it shall too have its own recap, because dang, too much happened and i am not emotionally ready for december. i would 10 out of 10 recommend. we follow jang-uk from a noble family, rejected by the skilled teachers. he stumbles upon mu-deok, who happens to be naksu an elite warrior/assassian trapped in mu-deok’s physically weak body. she decides to be his master and teach him fighting skills. a lot of crazy nonsense goes down, and so many plot twists happen. and i freaking loved it. i loved the character development especially from out naksu and wanting to put others around her first. like yes queen.

Kim Jinseo and Crystallis’ Jasmine to join the cast of ‘18 Again’

KIM JINSEO and CRYSTALLIS JASMINE will be joining Yoon Sanghyun, Lee Dohyun, and Kim Haneul in JTBC’s upcoming Monday-Tuesday drama ‘18 Again’! 

Based on the American film “17 Again,” JTBC’s “18 Again” is about a husband on the verge of divorce who suddenly finds himself back in the prime of his life, which was 18 years ago. The drama will be director Ha Byung Hoon’s first drama since KBS 2TV’s “Go Back Couple.”

On August 21, a representative from JTBC announced the casting and stated, “JASMINE will be playing Hong Siah, Hong Daeyoung (Yoon Sanghyun) and Jung Dajung (Kim Haneul)’s older twin daughter. Meanwhile, JINSEO will be portraying Goo Jasung, a basketball player who is classmates with Siah and her brother Siwoo. Both characters will undergo significant development as the series progresses.” 

JASMINE was last seen in the drama ‘Hotel del Luna’, which won her a Best New Actress Award, while KIM JINSEO was last seen in the hit Netflix series ‘Bullet Inquiry’. 

The cast and staff of ‘18 Again’ are set to have their first script read-through on August 28. The drama will officially premiere on October 2 and will air at 9:35 PM every Monday and Tuesday for 16 episodes. 

[ + / - ] didn’t they received acting awards? jtbc really hit the jackpot for getting two award winners in the same drama. i have high expectations for this drama!! [ + / - ] poor dohyun’s going to carry this show on his shoulders. if it wasn’t for his visuals, i don’t think anyone would watch this drama. the storyline doesn’t sound intriguing and their cast are a bunch of unpopular actors and idols.

sorry you're not feeling great :( sending you my best!

cute new years prompt could be drunk sneezy eddie at a NYE party. too wasted to cover properly and steve trying to control him lol but unfirtunately he gets sneezed on during their kiss at midnight

I love this! Have a short little ficlet set in modern day Streamer AU. -KB

*****

Regardless of whatever anyone else said, Eddie was having a great time. He and Steve were hosting a small New Years Eve party at their apartment with Robin, Nancy, Chrissy, Jonathan, and the Corroded Coffin guys.

Eddie couldn’t deny liking a good buzz, but New Years Eve was one of few occasions where he had an excuse to drink a little more than usual. Presently, he had on gold glitter 2023 glasses and one of those shiny disposable top hats.

Dick Clarke’s New Years Rockin Eve was on the tv in the background and Eddie was dancing to Harry Styles’ As it Was with his fourth glass of champagne in hand.

“Wow, who knew it only took some champagne for the party animal to be unleashed!” Chrissy teased as she danced with him in the boys’ living room.

“What’re you talkin’bout Chris? I’m iiKSHiew! I’m always a party ehhh animal- ETSHuhew! SNFF”

Eddie had spent the better part of the night sneezing - drinking was one of those things where the buzz also went to his nose. Unfortunately for his guests, his ability to cover decreased as the night progressed.

“Eddie! C’mere!” Robin, also tipsy, was standing on the couch pulling the dancing man closer to her as she pressed a tissue to his nose. “Take this. Just hold onto it yeah?”

Eddie took another sip of his champagne and held the tissue in the other hand. He felt his nose start to tickle, so he held the tissue and champagne over his head and sneezed openly at the ground.

“H’iixxTCH! N’gxtCHU! H’etSCHiew!”

“What are you doing, you dummy??” Robin exclaimed, as he sneezed on everything BUT the tissue.

He looked up at her with glazed eyes. “Didn’ wanna s’deeze on it.”

He seemed genuinely confused. Gareth put an arm around him and laughed.

“You dumbass. That’s literally what that’s for.”

Eddie rolled his eyes and playfully shoved Gareth off him as he danced away over to Steve.

It was a little over one minute to midnight and everyone was getting ready for the big moment.

Steve was in the doorway between the kitchen and living room. Eddie came over, doing a drunken party dance as he did. The older man put a hand on the doorframe next to Steve’s head.

“Hey there handsome. What’s on your mind?”

Steve chuckled, holding his own glass of champagne. “I’m thinking that you had too much to drink, sneezy.”

Eddie feigned a gasp, bringing a hand to his chest dramatically.

“I didn’t know we resorted to name calling, Steven,” he joked, “and to think I was going to ask you to be my new years kiss.”

“I’m your boyfriend Eddie, you don’t have to ask me.” Steve laughed.

“Well, we’ve got-” Eddie glanced at the tv where the ball was dropping slowly, “20 seconds left. I wanted to be polite.”

Steve chuckled, “Okay Eddie, I’ll be your New years kiss.”

They turned their attention back to the party where everyone was counting down.

10…9…8…7….6…5…4…3…2…1…

HAPPY NEW YEAR!!

With the traditional new years song playing in the background, Steve leaned in and pressed his lips against Eddie’s. Despite being wasted, he had to admit, Eddie was still a good kisser.

He was lost in thought when Eddie simultaneously jerked forward and pulled away. Steve barely had time to register what happened.

“N’Gtch! Tsch’iew! H’EKSHiew! Fuck! Sorry Steve!”

Eddie had sneezed as he pulled away from the kiss, continuing to sneeze at the floor as he turned away from his partner.

Everyone was giggling at the spectacle, Robin coming to tease Steve and wipe him off with a napkin.

Chrissy walked over to her longtime friend, rubbing a hand on his back.

“Okay you,” she said, slipping the champagne glass out of his hand, “You’re cut off for the night.”
