(Nick)name: Kara
Country: USA
Kpop (incl. biases): a whole bunch of old school - Sechskies, H.O.T (Heejun), Shinhwa (Jin, though tbh I probably talk about Hyesung more), TRAX, all the old SM groups; Super Junior (Yesung, Kangin, Heechul), Yunho (lol not even "TVXQ" :X), Beast; Korean rock groups like Yoon Band, NeLL, izi (omg LOVE izi), cherry filter, rumble fish...; I'm familiar with (and like) everyone who debuted up until 2007/2008
Kdrama (incl. biases): N/A... oh oh but I do love Jang Geunsuk! and UHMFORCE!
What can we find in your LJ (private/fan stuff etc) / how much do you post: honestly I mostly use my LJ these days for subbing and sharing things in a Jpop fandom, and I've never been great at consistently commenting on friends' LJ entries. I'd actually rather friend people on Twitter, since that's what I'm on the most often!
Other interests (can be fandoms or hobbies or anything else): Johnnys, especially Kisumai :x; literature! I'm always up for talk about reading or writing (anything from fanfics and trashy romance novels to ( ... )

(Nick)name: Sarah
Country: USA
Kpop (incl. biases): CNBlue (Jungshin), ss501 (Youngsaeng), Super Junior (Sungmin), Brian Joo, JYJ (Junsu ... I guess?). But, to be honest, I only like CNBlue's actual music (as a group). I love Youngsaeng's solo stuff and Junu's.
Kdrama (incl. biases): Vampire Prosecutor is my absolute favorite, probably followed by Shut Up Flower Boy Band (Kim Min Suk, all the way) and then Joseon X-Files/Secret Investigation Record. I've also loved City Hunter, A Man's Story/Story of a Man (I will never be able to watch Park Ki Woong in anything else because, to me, he is Kyung Tae and I have trouble seeing him as anyone else), Crime Squad (I need more Kim Joon in my life) and Prosecutor Princess. I liked PtB, but mostly I love Ji Sung. I love watching dramas and am currently watching Rooftop Prince, IRIS (well, maybe, I don't know if I'm going to finish it), Hero (2012), Return of Iljimae and Kim Soo Ro (did I mention I like Ji Sung?).

I've not seen A Man's Story/Story of a Man, Crime Squad and Kim Soo Ro but I googled them and they all seem so interesting !! I'm gonna have to add those to my neverending list of kdramas to watch.

I'm currently watching Rooftop Prince and Iljimae too :)

I like the bands you listed (even if I'm bad with knowing Suju and CN Blue members, feel free to into them to me though ) and I'm following Young Saeng's solo career as well (actually I follow all the ss501 solo careers though I'm paying a bit more attention to YS, Kyu Jong and Hyung Jun than to HyunJoong and JungMin) .

I know absolutely nothing about Taiwanese pop music but it would be fun to find out :D

sometimes it sucks feeling old (at 34, omg).

Imagine how *I* feel ... I'm 39 >.< . You'll feel young around me ! :p ( ... )

A Man's Story/Story of a Man (and it's also called Slingshot, which no one is quite sure why) is really good, but I had a bitch of a time watching the episodes because the last few were broken and I had to watch them on this crappy Russian version of youtube. But they were TOTALLY WORTH IT (seriously, Park Ki Woong). Crime Squad was way better than I expected and I have a whole tag devoted to screen caps I took of Kim Joon on that show (on tumblr, but here's my LJ post about it). Kim Soo Ro -- we've only watched one episode so far (I'm watching it with my RL friend, it and RTP ( ... )

Commenting for solidarity with people named Sarah :D And also, Youngaseng! When I was in high school, I knew so many people with my name, but the older I get, the fewer Sarahs I run into.

I totally thought the same thing. There were three or four girls with my name and then I went to college, and everything changed.

Oh, god, me too. I preodered it and I want it to be here already, even though it hasn't even been released yet.

What can we find in your LJ (private/fan stuff etc) / how much do you post: Don't post very often, but when I do it's in bunches. Meaning I can go weeks without posting, but suddenly I'll post often in a few weeks, and then I'm quiet again. I reply to friends a lot though. After I move I should have more time to post. It's just personal stuff. About family, some things about upcoming albums I'm excited about or movies or actors I like. Normal stuff.
Other interests (can be fandoms or hobbies or anything else):>Anime, reading, writing, cooking, cake decorating, ( ... )

I am trying to so hard to get through IRIS, but someone told me something bad happens to my guilty pleasure TOP and I'm not really sure I like many of the characters ... D:

I wanted to see TOP kiss! Sometimes I like to see how a bias kisses just so it's easier to fantasize about it later on. lol But then I wanted to see how the drama ended. So I watched it all. OMG, TOP's intense gaze... That arrogant little smirk... I kept rewinding his scenes.

OMG. HTML fail. D: Sorry, about that.

I still can't quite admit to myself that I like him, mostly because I'm not a fan of Big Bang's music (and everyone likes them/etc). But ... do I really want to watch the rest of IRIS for him? Is it worth it?

I haven't seen that drama yet, but I've obviously seen Hana Kimi, Maou, and the one with him on the jury...I forget the name...OTL

Matsuyama Kenichi...I love him...and Matsuda Ryuhei...I will watch anything that man appears in...♥__♥

I'm glad that you think I rock~~ XDD I actually started out in jpop/rock and have been to a few shows

minka_g May 21 2012, 12:57:45 UTC
The Seaside Motel was one of the first movies he did. It is great; I highly recommend it. And Maou was great and the one with him on the jury... I think I saw that. it was like Majo Saiban or something to do with witch trials. I don't know if I finished it though. I also liked Voice.

Have you watched any of Tairano Kiyomori yet? I keep meaning to sit down and start it cause it is Matsuyama Kenichi and Daito Shunsuke, but I just haven't had the time.

It is rather amazing how so many of us started out in Jpop and Jrock and then sort of just migrated over to Kpop. It fascinates me
