I went to my former classmate’s baby Christening a week ago, and I don’t know anyone in the party aside from my classmate. I've met few ladies there, and since we don’t know each other, we’re simply saying this and that, but when KPOP/Korean wave talk was opened, my goodness it really brakes the barriers!!
The small talk turned into meaningful-hilarious-hallyu-kpopish-talk!! And strangers became friends …
It’s simply amazing how Korean wave/Hallyu fever bond us regardless of race, class, background, gender, sexuality, and age.
Here's the 10 strangers to friends tips from Charlyn Shaw
1. Greet everyone with a SMILE :)2. If you have a question; ASK someone! You never know where the conversation will lead.
3. When MEETING someone, repeat their name; it makes a great first impression.
4. Practice makes Perfect! The more you introduce yourself, the more COMFORTABLE you’ll feel!
5. Build TRUST– it’s the Foundation of Friendship.
6. YOU have a gift to offer. Believe in yourself.
7. Become a good LISTENER. You will learn so much about your “Stranger”
8. Common Interests = CONNECTION. Surround yourself with Strangers that SHARE the same Passion.
9. Remember, EVERY person you know was at one point a Stranger. Strangers aren't Scary.
And Most Importantly….
10 HAVE FUN. Meeting new people opens you up to new worlds.

I can’t forget these dudes who gets friend-zoned |
This other guy in the drama is just as attractive/rich/hot as the lead male, except he’s actually sweet and loving towards the girl. But sadly, so sadly NEVER GETS THE GIRL.
Can I have one or two of them instead?
Like I always said, I constantly fall in love in every male lead in a kdrama series..but sometimes on the 2nd male lead. I have that moments that I fell with second-lead-adoration syndrome. But it will always take a very strong portrayal to sway me from the no. 1 prince to the 2nd prince in a kdrama story. And sometimes I can't help but to get mad on the female lead for not liking the 2nd Prince.
Among those popular 2nd leads here are my faves~
Kim Hyun Joong as Ji Hoo |
Yoo Ah In as Moon Jae Shin |
And who wouldn't fall for this bad boy by day rebel at night Sungkyunkwan scholar? After his F4 Joseon stint I am now one of his stalker! He gets even steamier and hotter as you stare at him and he has this sexiest smile from all Saguek characters to date.
I'm honoring these two of my fave 2nd Prince, so how about you, who’s yours?

After my Winter Olympic blog entry about Viktor Ahn, an Olympic gold medalist speed racer , let's take a look at the most controversial result of this year's winter game.
The controversy started when the result of the figure skating competition was revealed. The Russian figure skater Adelina Sotnikova snatched the most coveted figure skating gold medal and beats the Korean red hot favourite Queen of Ice Kim Yuna (김연아).
For unbiased spectators and media at Iceberg Skating Palace it was obvious that South Korean reigning champion Kim Yuna, is the gold medal winner, she had skated flawlessly perfect. She also leads the short program before she skated at the final round.
But when Kim's final score (219.11) was read, the gold medal goes to Russia's Adelina Sotnikova (224.59), and silver medal to Kim. It resulted a cascade of roaring cheers from Russian supporters and fans in the arena, and uproar of sharp, derisive whistles and jeers from the others.
According to the final score Sotnikova had a strong performance, Kim was particularly exquisite, with perhaps just one wobble on her jump denying her perfection.
This score only shows the "home-ice advantage" and served as another painful reminder of how past Olympics have been shrouded in controversy.
But in contrast to the outburst of anger from the public over this controversial judging, which ended a silver medal for the reigning Olympic Champion, Kim Yuna reiterated multiple times, "I have no regrets. I feel free now."
As humble as she is, Kim Yuna said on her press conference: "Please remember me as a skater named Yuna Kim, not by a medal. Let's think that the gold medal went to someone who was more desperate for it." [FEVERSmedia - Sportsseoul]
In my heart you're always be the greatest skater, and it doesn't matter what medal you received because in the heart of all of your fans, you're the only Queen of Ice and the real Champion.
