Yes, I mock for I am bitter. Joo Ji Hoon, one of my favorite kdrama actors, has been tried for drug use, with prosecutors demanding a year in jail for him. He'll probably get it. Seeing how pretty he is, he will probably not fare too well.

GRRRR. I am bitter. He is one of my all-time favorites and will now not have any career anywhere ever. GRRR.

I clothe my bitterness in sparkles.

In sparkly news of a different sort:

"Having girly hobbies doesn't make you less MANLY" Ahahahahahaaaa!

Today, acting totally on impulse, I bought first volume of a manga called Otomen. It sounded too hilarious not to. No summary I can give is going to be better than the summary from the cover, so here it is:

Asuka Masamune is a guy who loves girly things--sewing, knitting, making cute stuffed animals and reading shojo comics. But in a world where boys are expected to act manly, Asuka must hide his beloved hobbies and play the part of a masculine jock instead. Ryo Miyakozuka, on the other hand, is a girl who can't sew or bake a cake to save her life. Asuka finds himself drawn to Ryo, but she likes only the manliest of men! Can Asuka ever show his true self to anyone, much less to the girl he's falling for?

LOL.

Seriously. LOL.

Now, in real life, I like my men pretty darn manly, but for manga purposes, this is comedy gold.

Also, I went browsing because I thought this would make a fun anime and found out that a live-action jdrama version of this is coming in August. Heee. I will be sure to check it out.
