Flower Boy Face-Off: Boys Over Flowers

For our last little video from KCON 2013, we decided to ask Kdrama fans the hardest questions they have ever faced: Who would you ultimately choose to date- Jun Pyo or Jihoo from Boys Over Flowers, or the actors who play them, Lee Min Ho, or Kim Hyun Joong?







Check out the results in this amusing video.  Look for Rosie from Shine a Light Rose and her mom as they answer the questions!

I was pretty pleased with this game, so look out for more Flower Boy Face-Offs in the future!

So let's hear it ladies and gents! How would you answer these questions?

Kdrama Speed Dating: Finding the Perfect Male Lead

I've explained in the past that my life is kind of like a Kdrama. The only problem is that I'm still missing the male lead! In a quest to find the perfect Korean drama male lead, I decided to participate in speed dating at KCON 2013. (As a joke, mind you. I mean, 14-18 years olds are a little young for me, even by noona romance standards).

There are basically 5 questions that help you quickly filter out potential male leads in the one minute you have for speed dating.


I subjected several lucky men to these awkward questions and here are the amusing results:


 

 So what other questions do you need to ask a man to determine if he is Kdrama male lead worthy? Comment below.

Kdrama Would You Rather Game: NY Kpop Festival 2013

We all know that characters in Kdramas have some pretty crazy lives. If you had a choice to actually pick which awful Korean drama situation to be in, what would you choose?  I headed over to the NY Kpop Festival, put on by the Korean Cultural Service, a couple of nights ago to play a little game called, "Kdrama Would You Rather" with some Korean drama fans. Let's see how they responded.

How to Fangirl/Fanboy at KCON: Good Idea, Bad Idea


KCON is in a week, and I'm getting really stoked to go and meet a bunch of fellow Kdrama/Kpop fans! If you haven't heard of KCON 2013, it’s an all-things-Hallyu convention organized by the Korean network, Mnet, that will takes place next weekend in Los Angeles. The convention features concerts from top Kpop artists, workshops and panels on Korean pop culture, fun contests, and artist engagements.  I'll be walking around filming footage for some YouTube videos and taking pictures of all the beautiful K-fans for a KCON slideshow.

I don't know about you, but the thought of being around my favorite K-stars makes the inner fangirl in me go a little crazy. Now, I don't want anyone to get too out of control when the time comes, so in order to be ready for KCON this year, let’s review some good ideas and bad ideas about how to fangirl/fanboy.

1. Good Idea: Fangirl/Fanboy so hard that your favorite band feels the love.
    Bad Idea: Fangirl/Fanboy so hard that you faint from too many feels.



2. Good Idea: Create a poster that says, “I love you Oppa!” for your favorite bias. 
    Bad Idea: Create a poster that says, “I just. I can’t. Can’t even. This. jklasdfhdfa” because the feels       are preventing you from forming coherent sentences.



3. Good Idea: Cosplay (dress up) as your favorite Kpop or Kdrama Star to show them your love.
    Bad Idea: Cosplay (dress up) as your favorite One Direction or Twilight star. 



4. Good Idea: Go to KCON to meet your favorite artists and get their autographs.
   Bad Idea: Go to to your favorite artist’s house and make forcible entry to meet them and get their autograph.



5. Good Idea: Be in Kdrama Fighting's YouTube videos and photos from KCON. 
    Bad Idea: Be in police surveillance videos and photos from trying to sneak backstage at KCON.




I'm really excited to see you all there! KCON 2013, here we come! Have you ever had an extreme fangirl/fanboy moment? Tell us about it in the comments.
