Odds and Ends: Giving thanks
by javabeans
javabeans: So everyone here in the States is probably still in a turkey-induced coma from Thanksgiving, which was on Thursday, which is when we honor the spirit of gratitude of our colonial forbears who survived particularly harsh conditions in their first year on the continent by watching football and internet shopping.
girlfriday: Yes, some things are sacred in America.
javabeans: Apparently some people get really intense about the specific stuffing recipe you use, and how you carve your bird. Here I am thinking, “What, chunks that fit in my mouth aren’t good enough for you?”
girlfriday: That stuff always makes me laugh, because when you eat your plate of Thanksgiving food, doesn’t it all end up tasting like gravy mash anyway? It’s a lot of effort for food that’s then overpowered by the taste of sauce, no matter what special recipe you used or how early you woke up to start cooking.
javabeans: I guess I’m not that big on the holidays, because to me it just seems like a lot of work for a meal. When I’m with family we at least make an effort to actually give thanks for stuff, but I had a friend day this year so we just mostly shoved food in our faces and I only remembered I’d forgotten to feel grateful after they’d gone home.
girlfriday: Oh right, giving thanks. We should maybe do that.
javabeans: Maybe we could list some things here. Feeling maudlin?
girlfriday: Fine, if you’re going to make me. Let’s see… I’m thankful for the fact that my work uniform is pajamas and fuzzy slippers.
javabeans: I’m thankful for my health, even if it fails me every December while writing reviews, because if anything the revolving door of ailments reminds me on a regular basis that it could always be worse.
girlfriday: I’m thankful for the fact that we’re almost done writing the Beanie Polls, because hundreds of one-liners is actually a lot of work.
javabeans: I’m thankful that for every oppa the army taketh away, we get one back. With abs!
girlfriday: I’m thankful for noona-killers, and heroines with sass.
javabeans: I’m thankful that there’s still something to love about dramaland, even if it puts out some stinkers regularly.
girlfriday: I’m thankful that rom-coms still make me swoon.
javabeans: I’m thankful for all of the actors who make me swoon.
girlfriday: I’m thankful for Ha Woo-jin.
javabeans: I’m thankful that I still really love writing recaps, after writing a thousand of them.
girlfriday: I’m thankful that we’re not sick of each other.
javabeans: I’m thankful that we have new minions to help alleviate our recapping burden, although honestly I think it’s more that we spread our disease to them than them taking it away from us.
girlfriday: I’m thankful for all our readers, who remind us every day that we’re not the only crazy people out there.
javabeans: Yes, thanks to you all, and happy holidays!
girlfriday: …Are we done now? Can I get back to internet shopping?
javabeans: Oh, and I’m thankful for internet shopping. Okay now we’re done. Go forth and buy stuff!
girlfriday: It’s the American way.

I wish there was still a like button because I feel the same way. That's exactly what dramas are - a nice break when you're having a bad day. And Dramabeans just increases that enjoyment for me by providing interesting insights, clever commentary, and a great community of people who love what I love - so I'm thankful to you guys too!

This Thanksgiving, I'm thankful for a lot of thinks.
In relation to all the things kdrama, I'm thankful for the endless recaps and the amount of work DB put into it. KAMSAHAMNIDA!
I'm extremely for the 4 dramas I've watched this year. Firstly, You From Another Star. It was a great drama that hit the right notes. Yeah it was a bit overrated and probably didn't deserve it's mega-fame and popularity, but I guess these are the sorts of dramas people like, unlike the others I'm about to talk about.
City Hunter. Oh boy. Where do I start? I am beyond thankful to have watched it. I had no idea what I was getting myself into when I chose to watch it. The first ep hooked me, and each ep after that, like the first 10 or 11 eps, I had myself thinking that this was the greatest show of all time. And I still do. It's pretty much ice, cannibas, crystal met, ecstasy, and all your other drugs combined into one roller-coaster of a drama. The fact that there was no season two has to be the biggest disappointment in my life.
Liar Game was pretty fuckin amazing. No romance, no romance (which mind you, are key elements to a kdrama) and yet I was still so damn entertained. The games left me on the edge of my seat and its complicated nature wasn't what I was expecting from a kdrama. I think people got turned off from the complex rules, which is a real shame. I also believe that those that watched the anime wouldn't have enjoyed the kdrama nearly as much. Stop comparing the anime to the kdrama ffs, they're both different and you'll won't be able to enjoy the kdrama I'd you keep thinking about the drama.
Pinocchio? PSH has proven her haters wrong, this is her best role by far. Cute, relatable, funny, overdramatic, honest, caring, smart... LJS has improved from IHYV, his acting here is great.
And their chemistry is sizzling, thanks in part to the awesome script.

Hi Shitty Hunter, I can totally relate to the way CH sucked you into the kdrama blackhole from whence there is no return. For me, CH is the kdrama that my brother and I watched together and now reference all the time. (He watches one or two a year with me, so this Christmas I have to choose the next one well). btw, I have a cartoon on my blog -click owl - on the cimitoons page that you will immediately recognize by its signature scene on the screen).
ff means fast forward in my tv waching world, but I see it can have other meanings...haha.

I've been in Korea for over three years now, but this year I actually made an effort to do SOMETHING for Thanksgiving instead of just letting it pass me by like every other year. While my husband and in-laws went down to the country to make kimchi (and my mother-in-law INSISTED that I stay behind to celebrate American Thanksgiving), my friend and I went to Outback and ate expensive steak. It was nothing like turkey, but the red wine sauce on my steak did taste a bit like gravy and at least there were potatoes. My friend got the mashed potatoes and said they were horrible, so I'm glad I opted for baked. So all in all, it was a good night.
As for being thankful? I'm thankful for the husband I love and my awesome in-laws. I'm thankful for my adorable albeit annoying dog. I'm thankful that my job seems to be getting better and is still leaps and bounds ahead of other places I've heard of. I'm thankful that the computer I brought with me to Korea has not kicked the bucket yet because I don't want to buy a new one. I'm thankful that my neighborhood is quiet and safe and occasionally affords me the opportunity to see filming crews and celebrities. I'm thankful that my wedding came off with only a couple of minor hitches and that most of the pictures turned out well. I'm thankful that I love Korea the way I'd hoped I would but had worried that I wouldn't. And I'm thankful for the DB community for inspiring me to take the leap that brought me here years ago, and without which my life would be entirely different.

I will be very thankful when I'm finished though.

Haha! Well, last year my mother-in-law went down without telling anyone she was going, and this year she told me that I absolutely had to stay and observe American Thanksgiving. I did promise that I would go next year, though. And Husband got dragged down because he had to drive the car. :P
But yeah, I lucked out with my in-laws. They're super nice and don't really have high expectations of me as an American. One day I'll start working on being a better daughter-in-law, but it's so hard getting motivated lol.

We don't celebrate Thanksgiving in Australia, but we are so globalised now I'll add in my 2 cents worth!
- I am grateful for Dramabeans and the community here, I don't comment much but I pretty read every single post and giggle my way through the comaraderie in all the comments!
- I am grateful for discovering Kdramas this year. Kdramas are not as well known in Australia as other countries outside of Korea. As much as You from Another Star is overrated it piqued my curiosity enough to check it out an discover a whole treasure chest of new stories to swoon/cry/angst/giggle over.
- I am grateful for health and family, cos without that we've got nothing!
Cheers everyone and happy internet shopping!

I'm thankful for Dramabeans . . . And for Korean actresses being trained to look funny and beautiful while eating.

In my country we don't have Thanksgiving but because you really shouldn't need a reason to say Thank you I would like to add my 2 cents.
- Big Thank you to JB and GF to all the work and fun that you put in this website. I don't comment very much but I'm being a reader for many years already, times flies when you are having so much fun :)
- To all the minions and their wonderful work with recaps, art, etc...
- Also thank you to all of you, the beanies, because although JB, GF & Co are the heart of the web, all of you make me love even more everything about Dramabeans, all your comments are the cherry on top of wonderful recaps. As I said before, I don't comment but I read all yours and make me feel part of such a lovely community.
Finally to Kdramas in general, the good, the bad and in between, thanks to them I became a part of something very special.
Thank you A

Though this year has been filled with grief for our family, there are still so many things I am thankful for. I need outlets for the stress and burdens I have to shoulder these days, and while I've only been able to watch 1 drama over the past year, I'm thankful that I've been able to continue keeping up with drama news and downloading what I want to watch whenever I'm able. And I'm very thankful that I still have options for downloading now that the torrent section of d-addicts is gone!

I'm thankful that I discovered the wonderful world of K-dramas this year (thank you, Netflix & Vampire Prosecutor!)
I'm thankful for Drama Beans, where I can squee and whine in company with other folks who understand.
In a related vein, I'm thankful for the awesome women who started this site, and their wonderful recaps, which have saved me from watching shows I would have hated, and spurred me to watch shows I'd never have tried otherwise. :)
I'm thankful for a whole pile of supernatural-themed TV shows I'd never have known about in previous years. :)

Hi Fancy Nancy - I am new to your you tube site and loved the Innisfree run down. Very cute, you are sweet to buy mask gifts for friends. The member card is a good move I think. I am fascinated by face masks because of kdramas, but I've had a hard time finding the ones that are paper that you place over entire face. More often I can find the gel or paste that dries and peels off. They're just okay-ish, but does any one know a brand and where to buy the white paper ones in the States?

I love those masks! I have found them (all kinds of varieties) at both my local Asian supermarket (Chinese-owned) and the little shops that are usually Korean-owned that sell real and fake hair. But Amazon also has them. So refreshing!

Haha, I'm thankful you guys used screencaps from two of my favourite recent dramas for this post. Still mourning the end of Let's Eat.
Thank you to all the Dramabeans crew and the intelligent, awesome commentariat for making watching dramas even more fun, entertaining and insightful. I always look forward to hearing what you all have to say about the shows I'm watching and i'm always excited to see that you're recapping (or have recapped) a show I'm watching. I hope you all enjoyed the holiday (and actually took a break and relaxed a little!)

I am thankful for all the folks at DB - recappers, reviewers, artists and also fellow commentors.
All your insights added to my understanding and appreciation of kdramas. Your funny observations give me belly laughs that is good for my health.
Thanks to SKorea for churning out those kdramas! I saved so much money just watching kdramas online after i cut the cable!!
Also thankful for kdramas which introduced me to kpop thru actors n OSTs.
Thankful that kdrama was the bond that binds me to my good SKorean friend here in NTexas.
Thankful that kdrama is helping me learn another language! I can now call stupid co workers in another language!
Thanks to kdrama i can ogle at some young (and not so young) beautiful actors n actresses all week long.

In my country we don't celebrate Thanksgiving, and I thought it was a beautiful non commercial date. LOL
But some years ago we "imported" blackfriday! Now we have the shopping crazyness without the beauty part of being thankful... But I'll start being thankful now:
Thanks for all the amazing recaps Javabeans, Girlfriday, Gummimochi, HeadsNo2, Averagerobot, Awcoconuts, Dramallama, Fanderay, LollyPip, Odilettante, & Saya.
And thanks @August. I did a ctrl+C ctrl+V of your list...

Ah, I can't wait for the beanie polls. Thanks for everything y'all do. I'm not sure I would ever have the patience to do it, no matter how much I love watching dramas.

I'm thankful for Dramabeans and POTup and dramaland. The last couple years would've been a lot harder without these perfect escapes. Like several other beaners said, you guys get me through rough days. I'm also thankful for every tomorrow--a chance to dust myself off and try again.
