• Korean Drama group

  Once a year my Korean drama group forum has a dinner. I got my very understanding husband to take me to the foray last Saturday in NJ. HAHA! He is quite the champion for me in this K-raziness.

  There were quite a few newer people there that I hardly know and it was nice to get to see them in person. I am really shy so I missed a few and want to get a bolder face on next time.I sat with some new ladies and it was nice to get to know some fellow fans my age mind you! What is interesting is the room is a mix of cultures so I am not the only woman of color there but of different culture there.

  

  The food was by a great catering service from NJ called Sammy Chon’s K-town BBQ. He has restaurants in NJ and PA. He is a facebook friend of mine too. The food was so Awesome. He had Korean tacos which was a rice cake folded and fried into a taco shell shape and added chicken, slaw and dressing. It was so good. You can see the half eaten on my plate up there on the right on the photo LOL. I almost forgot to take a picture of the food and was digging in… HA!

  But here was the best part, door prizes and video bargains.

  

  I got a t-shirt, an iron on decal of my favorite drama Faith, a cute boy and girl magnets in their hanboks, a Korean pop star magazine, candy, a necklace and K-drama dvds.  I am not big into Korean Pop music I must say but they tend to be in a lot of the dramas. My favorite Korean Pop group has to be 2NE1 which if you google you will see they are very famous not only in Korea. That is one of the groups singers on the cover too.

  My favorite video from them because I absolutely love this song….

   

  Oppa is so cute! he-he but I am an adjumma, he is too young for me I should call him Dongseng. I think…

  Here is another LOL I play this when I am upset with my husband, HAHA!

   

  These are some of their older songs but I love them.

   

  But back to K-Dramas I love learning about Korean culture this way too. I like that in their culture that they have such an important emphases on being respectful to their elders. I reminds me of my own. In fact there was one drama that the father looked so much like my father I cried when he was sad and got so angry at the kids who were not respectful of him. He died at the end I thought  I would not stop crying. It really made me miss my daddy. I really get involved emotionally to these Korean Dramas But once again I babble on and on about my weird side here…LOL OH WELL!

    

   

   

  Here are some of the ones I watched. Boys over Flowers was my favorite and Full House my least. Even though Rain is so cute. I think I talked about this before but HA I can’t help but mention that again. I need to make a master list someday LOL.

  OK I had to divulge my self a bit. Enjoy
