haha! your conversations are always entertaining~

Props for the awesome Alanis Morissette reference :) I was obsessed with her back in the day.

I will play with you. And lose. But I do not want any forehead flicks.

I am insanely curious about what exactly happens in minion bootcamp, and why it means you guys have to watch aaallllll the shows!

Seriously, I thought 'ah, javabeans and girlfriday aren't 'capping anything right now, it must be the first time they've taken a WELL-DESERVED break in a million squillion drama-cycles, and man if they are sitting this one out, I couldn't be happier' - especially in response to the rather inconsiderate complaints of 'javabeans you should do more how dare you not be recapping right now' (really?). It was a nice idea XD

Your story is always funny.. How I wish I could go to KPOPCON so I can see you in real life..
I'm really grateful because DB recap many shows, but it should not take away your enjoyment and time and watch extra million dramas out there. You're truly amazing, Javabeans and Girlfriday!!
Now every week I always wait for the new odds and ends post

so ... is go stop similar to Hanafuda?

On Mamma Mia (national good sons episode last week), Jangjin played Go Stop with his parents. His usually easy going father called a play that Jangjin questioned. Father yelled, "International rule. International...that's only in Busan and not Seoul" (meaning Jangjin's way). Jangjin replied, "You acted like you didn't even want to play."

It was hilarious how into it they all were.

Even though you've created more work for yourselves, the recaps on more dramas is the greatest thing ever. Big fuzzy hugs and a smooch for all you do javabeans, girlfriday, and the many minions who we adore. Being drill sergeants, isn't that what you get paid the big bucks for? :/

Fighting!\o/

Thanks for the recaps. I realized that though I kid myself and say this will help my language learning, it has become an addiction. That said, when I do make it to Korea - I have to be prepared for life without subtitles or recaps. The other day it struck me that I actually should be watching them with the subs OFF and turning them on after. Then it struck me that people will not have English (or insert your language of choice) scrolling in front of them when they communicate in person. That said, the imagery about a scene or such with English scrolling on an electronic device while the person speaks english, or vice-versa Korean scrolls while I speak english has interesting potential. I once thought about writing a drama from a foreigner's perspective. But which idol would be the first I would meet? Hmmm... dunno. Minho from Shinee has been interesting to watch grow from Piano to other roles. The Go-Stop scene in the recent my love from another star was interesting as well. There have been many funny ones throughout the drama world. Need to learn myself. Keep up the good work and the minions will help. Fighting!

I bought a Samsung Galaxy S 4 (thank you dramas for your product placement). So of course the first thing I did was go on to Amazon and look for Korean apps.

Right after the batch of Learn Korean apps, there was "Why Do Dramas Do That?" rubbing elbows with "Dirty Korean". Yeah javabeans!

I am LOVING all the extra recaps, and I want ya'll to know, I really appreciate your going the extra mile and recruiting the minions, who have all been completely awesome! I have a bad internet connection and I can't watch dramas online when they come out but I want to keep up with everything and I am so happy there are so many more recaps to look forward to each week. So your godly efforts are being very much appreciated by this girl. ;)

Stairway to Crazy ahahaha

Those are really nice steps to go by
Now if I only had the patience to do that I would have being a guru by now :D
I've learnt quite a bit of korean from watching dramas alone(I started last year may) and I can write it a bit
I tend to learn more though by rewatching dramas I've watched before.just yesterday I learnt the phrase 'I'll eat well'(jondae form) from uri Do min joon sshi(yfas)
And I can quite differentiate jondae from banmal cos jondae is longer and ends a lot with 'kka'

Man, I'm so bummed I missed KPOPCON! I bought a pass and everything. Although taking a friend's daughter to a planting drive is definitely more important. Can't wait to hear about it!

JB and GF are you planning on coming to the next KCon in LA? I missed you guys last August, you have to have a forum on the day of the concert... A working mother like me can't fully afford the 2 day ticket when there's 2 or 3 of us going and I'm paying for all of us! Really I missed the chance! Yeah, you need to get your own booth! Sell some Dramabeans logo merchandise! Like T-shirts, bags, push some discounted Kdramas... And of course your books! You've got to write more, like words Kdrama addicts need to know or just simply Kdrama dictionary. I'd totally buy! We dropped by the Viki, Soompi booths among the many available! The MBC booth--the guys were great salesmen! My co worker who is single with tons of money bought a boat load of Kdramas while I stood back drooling! My teen daughter standing behind us was surprised when the salesmen offered her multiple posters for free. 'See she doesn't share her mother's Kdrama addiction! We took the posters anyway, there are still rolled up in her closet amongst the many freebies given out at Kcon! Hope to see you at the next one... We had a blast at the concert, but when EXO came on the audience was soo loud I couldn't hear their songs. Anyway ladies hope to really see you then... Thanks for the fun read!

The Goo Dae Young screencap got me wayyyy too excited haha. I was hoping for a mention of Let's Eat! Oh well... you're posts are always entertaining ladies (:

Seeing the posts of "Let's Eat" makes me go hungry again .... Shabu shabu!!!!!

JB and GF unnies, please could you do a podcast on this drama ---- would love to hear you all drooling on the various Korean dishes and the drama of course!!! I am sooo in love with Lee Soo Kyung and Barassi :D
