Suzy working hard.
Bought her mom a small coffee shop.
Maybe later buy her a diner




You should watch other programmes.
Korea are just genius (for me ) for their programmes.
Even documentaries.

Even 'Gag Concert' are hott these days.
Better than Malaysia comedy shows...'Raja Lawak' etc.




SNSD on variety?
I only enjoy when Taeyeon in it

Like 'Let's Go Dream Team' SNSD.

Even made > 200 GIFS on Taeyeon ONLY.

Taeyeon truly an entertainer.
While others are totally competiting, she's there to have fun

She admits she's comfy when the girls are with her.




Best part of the episode.

PS: That's my YouTube account

haha..watch liao last year..like taeyeon more liao after watch her old WGM with hyundong...haha

Thanks for the info~~!!

When it comes to local tv stations I'm not so informed, all of it is Mandarin dub I think, prefer to watch Korean audio with subtitles.

Didn't know that Red FM plays K-pop, what is the time segment?

I did watch some Let's Go Dream Team but only the episode with Girl's Generation is worth watching

I got into K-Pop first, then discover drama and variety shows after discovering KBS World.





I'll say Korean Variety shows are quite unique and good to watch. I tend to prefer those with Idols in it . Girl's Generation Let's Go Dream Team is pretty entertaining, from there you know which member is more athletic. I like to watch Gag Concert too sometimes.

Btw, any of you watch dramas on tonton.com.my??

Just found out Mo Gabi (Kim Suh Hyung/ Kim Seo hyeon of History of salary man got very colourful daring movie in 2003 haha

Although already Ajjuma level but still good looking for sure

haha..watch this salaryman also can learn idioms..but chinese ones..

'jek sau je tin', 'mun tin ko hoi'..

Haha..She still younger than me mah...Wah u can translate the korean to canto kah?

Just finished ep16..Tonite cont ep17

i think the korean use chinese idioms mar..lol. i see the words similiar to chinese wan.

they write chunha group = tian xia as their company logo i think..not korean wor..haha

i only epi 9 now..hopefully last episode come out when i reaching there..hehe.

Surprisingly Korean used a lot of Chinese and Japanese language.

'Yakso' (promise) was taken from Japanese.

'Unni' - Korean

'Onii' - Japanese.


China & Japan occupied Korea long long time

They also read lotsa Chinese classic books mah..Lotsa Kdramas mentioned similar Chinese classic warring books like sun zhu & esp Zhuge liang of three Kingdom & probably more

can give except salaryman?

haha..yup, i notice alot of words from english also... hehe

Recently on '2 Days 1 Night' it's about Korean heritage.
It is something to be proud of.

Can't change the fact that they learn a lot from China, in a way.

The thought of being occupied by China & Japan was a bit painful


Anyone watch 'Dream of the Red Chamber' (Classic novels during Qing Dynasty)

Two(2) Saturdays ago?
Lin Chin Hsia

They were occupied by Japanese- Yes during the last century but historically they never been occupied by Chinese. They are infact alligned and pay respect to Chinese centuries ago but not occupied haha.

They adopted almost all Chinese culture, religion & belief esp their confuscious culture. Infact although there are more & more christian in SK nowadays, they still maintained lotsa confucious teaching + their Chinese name, counting & 50% more vocab or chinese origin..They only having their turkish-Mongol sounding ending & starting & grammartic words such as yo & nida which is alien to chinese haha

Recall 'The Princess Man'?
Early scene where the evil emperor was waiting for a Chinese delegate.
He's trying to make sure that the Chinese delegate did not know about the bad things that he did; killing his PM etc.
Seems like the emperor scared of the Chinese delegate.
What an impact of China's empire.

That's why I assumed China occupy Korea.







Watching too much Korean channel, I wish there's a Japanese channel on ASTRO soon.
Then can notice more words that Korea ciplak
ASTRO has NHK channel but nothing on it


Back to K-Drama, I don't 'DH 2' at all.
Not tempting enough.



'Soo Young, Mianhe [I'm sorry] '

chinese or rather the mongols during yuan dynasty tried to conquer korea but failed...and Chinese allied with North Korea during the Korean War..so china never occupied korea at all..haha

I just recall that i went to the korean museum last time..

Only the Mongols wanna conquer Korea not chinese haha..BTW Raikkonen, The Yuan Dynasty of China is not Han Chinese but rather Kublai Khan haha.. Kublai Khan was also the 1st king of Yuan Dynasty and making Beijing the 1st official Capital of China during Yuan dynasty.

This is good info, didn't know that Koreans take elements turkish-Mongol sounds in their language. I do know Chinese and Koreans are quite alike, including names, beliefs, Confucius teachings. The old palaces in Seoul all still uses Chinese Characters. I believe the Joseon Dynasty is the most well known and long lasting Confucius dynasty.


Oh, Raikonnen, I realized last 2 episodes of 2day 1night, focuses a lot on the palaces and historical buildings touches mostly on the history of when Japanese first invaded Korea, kinda interested in that part of history. I wonder if there are any drama's that touched on that era??

Btw, u have NHK channel, how is it?? Is it good?? I like some Japanese Entertainment too, but Dynasty package is kinda expensive, and not much time to watch, have good dramas, variety shows??

Truly good info indeed.
Khan totally owned everyone


Interesting if you're majoring in China's & Khan's history.


Maybe you guys did a lot of reading.
Too long read on Wiki










Some historic K-Dramas have those elements.
But some characters were fictional.
Difficult to tell unless the production team says so.


Hong Kong movies has as lot of those but focus on China's history.
Celestial showed a lot.

Civil wars.

Jackie Chan's 'Little Big Soldier'

'Red Cliff'

Chinese should be proud


NHK has no transmission at all; black screen.
I hope ASTRO will have someday.
