Kpopjacketlady: Adventures in Alaska, Chasing The Northern Lights.
We all need time off so here’s a quick change from the normal Korea centric posts I usually write. There maybe a slight relevance for some of my readers, particularly in Asia and North America, since Alaska is the closest and probably cheapest place… Continue Reading “Kpopjacketlady: Adventures in Alaska, Chasing The Northern Lights.”
Korean Variety Show Classics: X-Man.
X-Man ran from November 2003 to April 2007, which is a bit before many of us had easy access to watch Korean TV shows. It was also before many of us were fans of Kpop, so you well may ask why write something about… Continue Reading “Korean Variety Show Classics: X-Man.”
