Interesting to google shamanism and fairies. Were they going for this? “The title "Fairy Cheon-ji" (천지요정) is an example of how a shaman might embody the qualities of a fairy, symbolizing spiritual alignment with high, heavenly spirits.” The FL seemed to have special powers different from the General
Other fairies depicted (non Disney) are beautiful and powerful. From Lord of the Rings to the Arthurian legend of the Lady of the Lake in Avalon. I agree that celestial maiden has more gravitas. Do you suppose translators took the liberty to choose a shorter title for convenience?
It is evil. My late husband's caretaker was trying to get her nephew here because he was in danger. He waited and waited but it was too late, as he was murdered.
Arooooooooooooo!
Great cast but surprised at the writing and directors getting such a big budget and cast. Not the top tier talent of other productions with this much hype.
Ep9 of #kdrama My Lovely Journey. Enchanted by stunning destinations combined by heartwarming stories. Plus contemplating how is personal success defined? Again, alcohol is the go to for coping with happiness, problems, liquid courage. Ep10 covers toxic fandom bullying people based on false rumors
so any drop in any negative event statistic for 2025 is what will be used as justification for using military against democratic governed cities? How Trumpian.
Amazing soundtrack and score
This put a smile on my face 🙂
I liked the honesty when she realilzes her true first love - not dragging out a love triangle. Yes, the domestic violence was a sad part - I was wondering why they couldn't do more, and I remembered how bad the laws were then, as shown in Castaway Diva. I liked a high school drama without bullies!
Beyond the Bar, My Lovely Journey, finished Aema and Untangled Love ( a high school romance without school bullying!) Bon Appetit Your Majesty, Twelve (disappointing) and going back to Apple for my Sci Fi fix - Invasion and Foundation.
I believe this week's emphatic win for a democrat in Iowa was the writing on the wall. Why state level elections matter. Every win a wakeup call.

Thank you Marc
They should quite reelecting her. Get out the vote and flip this seat. She's old and facilitated so much damage.
Filming with era constraints in place, ie no nipples, no frontal nudity & male nudity of limited to butt. Lee Han Lee is exceptional & adept at comedy. bitter rivals to support as sisterhood to protect each other. I don’t pay attention to MDL ratings which skew lower if not romance plot.
I loved it. The FLs did a great job in the duality of their roles as characters during a horrible and corrupt era of exploitation, and acting with just the right amount of cheesiness as the were filming scenes as characters in the erotic movie. Plus, the movie of the movie keeps consistent with 🧵
And yet, Republicans voted against redistricting reform to prevent what is going on in 2024. Efforts by California are to counter the GOP plan 2 permanently lock out Democratic representation. I can't believe the crap I get in the mail these days trying to frame it as a wasting taxpayer dollar issue
Someone on here posted the funniest recap of a kdrama I have ever read on this drama. I really was laughing out loud
was it supposed to explode after landing in water?
So adorable. This will put a smile on your face
OMG I’m in love ❤️❤️❤️❤️
Private sector jobs are up? Source other than Trump please
Hopefully not merged with the Social Security data that DOGE took and stored on an unsecured cloud
built in a flood zone? Ok
Happy international dog day from Sadie and Dash
The plagiarist is overseeing efforts to build expertise in AI?
The K-drama Twelve is scheduled to be available on Hulu in the U.S. on August 27, 2025, at 12:00 AM ET
same tacky gold embellishments
Which was achieved after much struggle and bloodshed, in the late 80's
They have conservatives and liberals. Guess which one declared martial law and was impeached?
Sunshine, an awesome game and a big ol bag of popcorn. Summer fun!
Wow!!!
I am really enjoying this quiet little drama that uses heartwarming storytelling within a travelogue. Not a slick, high dollar production but I feel the sincerity of the cast. I also love how they feature a cast member singing at the end of some episodes
Well deserved
The Atypical Family or Mr Plankton on Netflix
True. But it is good example of what sacrifices were made to obtain democracy and why South Koreans reacted so strongly when martial law was declared which lead to the impeachment of the President. The collective trauma much more recent
Have you seen the series Youth of May? The sacrifices made to resist martial law and push for democracy. Heartbreaking. The movie A Taxi Driver takes place during the Gwangju Uprising as well. A harrowing experience
Typo (talking)
Hey you! I’m taking here!
I would love to have that flag
He is mansplaining on steroids. Can journalists please push back on this garbage? Seriously, platforming such lies, such incompetence.
free elections, human rights, and the end of military dictatorships, culminated in the 1987 June Democratic Uprising, which led to a new constitution, the establishment of democratic institutions, and South Korea's emergence as a successful example of the Third Wave of democratization.
Because SK paid dearly in their fight for democracy against authoritarian rule from the 60s to late 80s, marked by mass protests, student movements & violence...the April 19 Revolution of '60, the Gwangju Massacre of 1980 & June Democratic Uprising of '87. These movements where citizens demanding 🧵
I am thrilled that Newsom is willing to fight fire with fire and standing up to Trump. Having said that, he is not my pick for President. I am also thrilled that Pritzker is showing strength and leadership. Time for congressional leaders to step up or get out of the way
This movie has occupied the too spot on Netflix (US) for several weeks, and is in movie theaters this weekend.
The real value was the access
That’s good to know. If things are changing that gives me hope. Thanks
Yes. I spaced out. No excuse. My heart hurts my late husband’s family is from Ohio & solid MAGA, mocking everyone when Trump won again. Also big believers in stop the steal. Politics has caused deep wounds in these relationships and it is a tragedy that division plays out across our nation
And Ohio’s neighbor Michigan is the next target. Specifically Chicago. Is this something OH residents endorse? How would Cleveland, Dayton and Akron feel about this? Maybe even ask JD Vance when he isn’t elsewhere on vacation
Ohio should know better on how dangerous a situation can be when weapon carrying military face off with civilians - the shame and tragedy of Kent State

True, but I think it will eventually make Trump paranoid
South Korean fast-food chain Lotteria has finally opened its first location in the United States. The burger specialist debuted in Orange County August 11, to crowds waiting to get their hands on the famous shrimp burger. apple.news/ALxk2yZnLTni...
Ron Turcotte guided Secretariat to one of the most iconic performances in the history of horse racing. I will never forget watching the Belmont on TV.
Fond memories. As relevant as ever. The genius of The Firesign Theater. I used to have this album
You articulated it beautifully
My priority is 2 counter the power grab initiated by TX. CA is in a position to do that & he is leading the charge. As a Californian because we are already suffering from Trump's efforts to "liberate LA", people dying during ICE raids by thugs, & gutting social programs. But my Pres pick's elsewhere
I got an email from my Repubilcan Assemblywoman who complained that this was a waste of taxpayer dollars. Of course I sent an email back - asking she had the same objections of a power grab from Texas, or the witholding of congressional approved tax dollars from CA.
Some classic gateway dramas are Crash Landing on You, Attorney Ann Woo, My Mister, 2521. As you give a thumbs up or down, the algorithm will align with your preferences. Enjoy!
I laughed😆
It’s a fun watch. Hope you enjoy it
Then perhaps concerned citizens who believe such actions are wrong on behalf of their beloved state can pick up the phone or write to express dissent, or even organize a rally. Non action is assent. AND especially OHIO should know better. Can they not remember the tragedy of Kent State?
Why did it take years to finally take action?
Ironclad is the key word. Ukraine made the decision to completely denuclearize inn exchange for the U.S., the U.K. and Russia's guarantee Ukraine's security in a 1994 agreement known as the Budapest Memorandum. The low level of trust is justified
agree, but I like how they allow her to be immature, then she goes through a learning curve, and through her inquisitiveness, figures out good solutions and outcomes. The dog episodes illustrated that growth arc really well.
What is intriguing is he supports the growth of the FL, and lets her try things on her own, expanding her comfort zone and growth by traveling alone and navigating a new place. He is there to advise if she needs him, but resists the usual path of rescuing a damsel in distress, yet he is fond of her
Hilarious!
There are links in my bio on my home page - one is a list of dramas I have reviewed on bluesky - take a look as to what genre, or streaming platform etc that appeals to you. what sort of stories appeal to you?
How about the ton of ink the NYT should devote to this as well?
why isn't the NYT and other MSM drumming up concerns about his mental acuity? I mean, seeing how such things were of top concern, aside the price of eggs last year.
Yep - It's a Russian propaganda video.
True Beauty - about 4 times per episode. It became a running joke.
If people are in LA prior to that, this might be of interest =- BTS' V to throw 1st pitch at Dodger Stadium on Aug. 25
powerhouse casting
RIP to legendary actor Terence Stamp, so memorable as Bernadette in the 1994 film Priscilla, Queen of the Desert
OHIO should know better. So disgusting
But her emails, right NYT? Will you give this the wall to wall coverage if say, this happened with Clinton or Harris?
I had a friend who suffered PTSD from what she saw that day
When will these guys get busted and prosecuted for impersonating a police officer? Apparently not with MPD
Perfect song for this tribute
And he wrote a book about Biden’s mental acuity?
But her emails!
Watched a wonderful, heartwarming episode 5 of the #Kdrama My Lovely Journey. A beautiful healing story contained within a travel adventure that is like a love letter to Korea with such gorgeous scenery and slice of life interactions with “locals”. Bonus footage - guest star sings during credits!
BUT HER EMAILS!!!
Agree. The only other kdrama to give me similar deep feels was When Life Gives You Tangerines
An updated version of Jack in the Box
Actions, not words. Exactly WHAT are you doing about this?
I have no words.
genre, a tough uncomfortable watch but appreciative of the character of the ML with choices consistent to the end. The villain portrayed as sexy and handsome. Nope! People talk about how silly the ending was, but I had just finished the movie The Host which had some similar allegorical elements.
gets right is the allure of vengeance when justice is denied. The feeling of being empowered. They also show that vengeance comes at a high cost and ruination of the victim and society. The scourge of guns is not anything I wish on any country. Its so depressing and discouraging. Not my favorite🧵3/4
is escalating. People with a grudge commit mass murder almost daily, plus more suicides and domestic violence killing as well. This was an uncomfortable watch, remembering the infamous Columbine school shooting, perpetrated by schoolboys who felt like outcasts, possibly bullied. What this series🧵2/4
I worked my way through to complete the #kdrama Trigger. Its message is directed at the situation in the US where politicians who are beholden to the gun lobby insist that selling more guns is essential for people to feel safe from others who have guns, which isn’t true. If anything the violence🧵1/4
Hahahaha. Red tie and all
Coincidence? Not just any museum, but the Japanese American National Museum, dedicated to preserving the history of the incarceration of Japanese Americans during World War II, who also criticized President Trump's executive order to eliminate "anti-American ideology." To have ICE there is obscene
