Once upon a time, I was hooked unto korean drama serials, mainly because of the good looking artistes and sappy songs that instantaneously play each time a teardrop becomes visible. I’ve come to realize how repetitive these storylines have become (will elaborate some other time), and have since stopped watching them.
In my pursuit for all things Korean, I started to learn the language. This also had to do with the fact that I have tutored two korean kiddies and they’re the most amazing people I’ve met, seriously. And then I even dated a korean guy. Time passed, some things hold through more than others and due to time constraints I stopped learning Korean. Having said that, I still love the language, and would love to continue pursuing it, if only I had the time. I’m just not too sure about the men.
On the other hand, my 50-something year old mum has just caught on the wave! Now we have KBS and Arirang subscribed on our cable tv. My mum surfs through blogs and forum pages on korean artistes’ gossip, watches fan-made youtube videos of her favourite stars and is up to date with the most recent korean dramas on air. Way to go!
