@lookitmychicken looks like you did such a nice job winning his trust. 🥰

@lookitmychicken there are recent photos of EXO's Chanyeol wearing what looks like Chrome Hearts glasses... 👀

@lookitmychicken his profile is so perfect with that dainty upturned nose

"‘For feminism in #Korea to thrive, han must die.’ What the present moment calls for is the aestheticisation of the beauty of women’s healing, resistance and empowerment."

@mario beautiful sunny day!

#3GoodThings

1. When a cat scritches their ear with their hind foot, putting their body in a weird contortion, and their ear makes a soft "fwip fwip fwip" noise

2. The gentlest of soft little licks from a dog you held your hand out to to greet

3. A finch fluffing its feathers and giving whole body shakes as it bathes in a bird bath

@lookitmychicken have you figured out the significance of the brand itself?

@lookitmychicken is that an 'F' tattooed on the side of his middle finger? 🧐🤭

This week's #KPopMonday theme is #LettingGo - breakup songs.

"Don't leave me loving you...
If you tip toe out in the morning, I need a warning..."

This music video was directed by Jackson himself, and I love how it includes behind-the-scenes at the end.

For Lunar New Year, a fun challenge: #ADramaLunies2025 for Asian dramas you've watched.

It starts today!

January 29: Funniest scene

I think one of the funniest #kdrama scenes is in the second episode of #BadProsecutor, where they need to stop a plane. But here is a compilation of some of the MANY jokes in the first two episodes.

January 30: Most unexpected twist on a trope

A very common kdrama trope is for childhood friends to become lifelong romantic partners, true loves.

2521 doesn't do that. I feel they foreshadowed it well with the beach trip - Adult Hee-Do not remembering it, but a huge event for Teen Hee-Do. Young love was outgrown, too.

Many people HATED this ending. I think it was perfect. And realistic.

January 31: most memorable grandparent character

The #kdrama #Navillera is about a 70 year old man who, after the death of his friend and against his family's wishes, finally decides to do what he has wanted to do his whole life: dance ballet.

A beautiful story about whether or not it is too late to follow your dreams.

February 1: most memorable use of sound

I love how there can be theme songs for certain characters.

One I especially like is the saxophone for Seo Dan Ah in the #kdrama #RunOn. She is clever, plotting, with an odd sense of humor. She is fully confident in herself, too.

Here is the official audio for the "CEO Seo" theme music.

February 3: most memorable line

This is silly, but it makes me smile and I think about it often. In the #kdrama #RunOn, the male lead is very clueless about pop culture and somehow becomes friends with a guy whose name is LITERALLY the same word as "movie" and they become "E.T. chingus (friends)". They touch pointer fingers to start a heart-to-heart talk.

SO CUTE! Male friendships in kdramas are some of the best.
