Ahjumma Reviews: When the Phone Rings: Focus on Yoo Yeon Seok
I first saw Yoo Yeon Seok as the brutally ireverent samurai Gu Dong-mae in Mr. Sunshine. Though I favored the poet of the three male leads in the Kdrama, I was smitten at YYS’ acting and good looks. I followed and watched his shows available in streaming channels I’m subscribed in.

Kuwentong Bangtan: Kim Namjoon and the White Porcelain Vase
Apologies and rectifications are in order.
A few days ago, last Friday, Dec.6 to be exact, I posted on my FB wall and Threads a screenshot of Joon’s profile photo on IG with my notes on kintsugi. It earned some engagements including corrections. And yes, I admit my mistake in the thread.
What I appreciated the most was the manner in which I received the correction. It was decent and kind.

Fandom Culture: Multistans and ARMY Life
Multistannig has deeply affected me because a friend I once knew as a fellow ARMY had been dishonest and turned her back on our friendship and connection to become a multistan. This has left me feeling hurt and betrayed. She never apologized especially when well meaning people tried their best to bridge and salvage any love that was lost.
