I always forget that Neneh Cherry is Swedish! This song isn't instantly doing it for me, but I think it could, with time. I like how much fun she and Robyn look like they're having rocking out at the end. And holy crap, I just checked on Wikipedia and Neneh is 50?! Damn.

Somehow, I get the impression that (if you take away the factor of the sheer amount of security and whatever that you'd have to get through to even think about approaching Beyoncé),that Solange might be the less approachable of the two. Maybe because she seems to care less than B about being nice and/or polite?…

I still stand behind the stuff I did early on... Another side of that is just being young and having bad taste. There was plenty of that too."

If you click through, TER is only referring to lipstick. Clean face and a red lip is what she's got in mind. Still too much effort for me personally for the gym, but... *shrugs*

Oh, Mark. You are now officially one of my Jezzie favourites. ♥

I know the feeling! I was in Heathrow airport a couple of weeks ago, and there was a group of students ahead of me in the security line, and I was like, "Oh yeah, they're from Korea." And then I got weirded out because four months I didn't know the first thing about the Korean language, and now I can easily recognize…

Oh my word, that little wiggle the first time her mom asks her the ice cream question! That little wiggle is everything! It's like her delight at the prospect of ice cream cannot be shown merely in words - it requires bodily expression in the form of the cutest little-girl wiggle in the world. (And now that I think…

Totally Korean. I think this video was made extra adorable by the fact that the drabbles I've picked up from dramas meant I could actually recognize the words the little girl was saying.

No, but I wouldn't be surprised at all if she did in the future. As I said, she's already sung lyrics that basically say, "If Jay is a good boy, I may buy him something nice" so, you know, that baby-minding one doesn't seem out of the realm of possibility. You and me both would listen to it, so let's hope that it…

She has another, more recent song (off the 4 album) where she sings "Yup, I buy my own, if he deserve it, buy his shit too..." which is a lyric that really subverts traditional gender roles, and the dynamics that are typically represented in R&B and hip-hop. And she can sing a line like that and have the listener…

What are some of the ones you've liked? I'm always looking to add new shows to my "to watch" list, and funny/quirky female leads is something I could definitely go for. (I didn't like Boys Over Flowers either; I don't think I managed to watch past the second episode before giving up on it.)

Lee Sun Kyun's smile, but also his voice! I think I would watch anything that he's in just for the pleasure of listening to that voice.

I finished it this weekend; I only had one and a half episodes left. It's taken me several months to get through the series, because I haven't watched very purposefully, just dipped in and out when I felt like it. Watching these last few episodes reminded me that what I like about it is the sense of domesticity and…

No, I've never seen it, but I just added it to my DramaFever Queue. Thanks for the recommendation!

Yoo In-Na and Ji Hyun-Woo became a real life couple during the filming of that drama, apparently. When I read that, i was like, "Ah, that's why they were so good together..." Have you ever seen the alternate ending for Queen In Hyun's Man? It is smoking hot. Smoking!

Pink Piano Punk Star by Mongoose.

I'm watching In Time With You right now! Like, literally, it's on pause in another browser tab as I type this. I like it, but it feels a little too drawn out to me, and it's been taking me ages to get through the series. Totally agree with you about the theme song though, and I really like the way variations of it…

And also because the alien in My Love From A Star was Kim Soo Hyun?

Yes, let's share recs! Yes, yes, yes! I have a special place in my heart for Queen In-Hyun's Man, just because it was my first. Coffee Prince, also — it's just a classic.
