Why a 25+ meme ?
Being a slightly older kpop and kdrama fan I (and a few others with me) always get a little disappointed by the friending memes.
Lots of 12-17ish year olds. Nothing wrong with being that age (it's wonderful), but someone 25+ or even 35+ can get a bit
discouraged by it. At least that's how it is for me.
I suspect there might be lots of older fans, like me, who feel like that. If you're 25+ - 35+ you really don't have much in common with a
16 year old.That's a fact. It always keeps me from participating in the memes, thinking what's the use ?I'm thinking there might be more fans out there feeling the same way. So therefore the 25+ cut off. Also since this is a 25+ meme please only participate if you're in fact 25 or older !
Also this meme doesn't have a deadline. No need to comment within the first 5 mins after posting (though you're welcome to do so).
There's time zones and I assume most 25+ y.o. have college,work and families to deal with (that pesky real life !)
Please feel free to come back and check for new comments anytime, or for lazy people (like me :p) track this post for new comments ;)
Questions
We'll live it up under the city lights...
Date: 2012-05-14 01:17 pm (UTC)Country: Australia
Kpop (incl. biases): U-Kiss (Eli, Soohyun, AJ), BigBang (Daesung, GD), DBSK/TVXQ/JYJ (Jaejoong, Max, Yunho), Shinee (Key), EXO-K (Suho, D.O., Baekhyun) With the exceptions of the obvious few there, I always seem to go for either the really manly ones, or the outright snarky bitches of the groups.
Kdrama (incl. biases): I’ve only watched Protect the Boss, but I LOVE Korean movies. Especially cop and gangster thrillers; anything with guns and martial arts, a bit of blood and a fly kick here and there floats my boat.
Movies like I Saw the Devil, A Bitter Sweet Life (well, anything with Byung-hun Lee is amazing), Our Town, Private Eye, The Man From Nowhere (that knife fight was AMAZING!), Psychic (or Haunters as it is sometimes called) is one of the best movies ever.
What can we find in your LJ (private/fan stuff etc) / how much do you post: My journal is a mishmash of all sorts of things; private, fan related, random rants, reviews… pretty much anything goes. I don’t post all that much though, however I am always lurking around here. I’ve been into Jrock for years, so that is my main fandom (kpop is all new and shiny) I also love Game of Thrones, Hunger Games and Spartacus. I love Japanese and Korean cinema though I never got into anime or manga. Again, same rules apply; if it’s badass with characters who throw a mean punch, then chances are I’ll love it.
Other interests (can be fandoms or hobbies or anything else): I am obsessed with Japan, so a big part of my journal is made up of that. I’ve been to Japan four times and am going back soon; I love posting and writing travel logs and journals, reviewing concerts and bars and sharing the hilarity of the stupid stuff I get up to.
What kind of friends are you looking for: Well, first of all, above 25 is a great idea. But then people with the same interests or with a crazy outlook on life are always welcome. You don’t need to post or comment all the time but i would love to have chats and rants every now and then. A love of travel would also be amazing.
Pet peeves: Right now, this whole ‘Bacon’ thing for Baekhyun. It bugs me. What is appealing about nicknaming him after a sizzled fatty piece of pig ass?
Twitter/Tumblr/FB/etc: http://www.tumblr.com/blog/minka-g
Anything else: What else can I say? Clearly I love Japan. I am at home in Tokyo and yet my heart belongs in Osaka under the glittery lights of Dotonbori and lost in the shimmering reflections of the canal. I’m much more of a crazy party girl than an otaku or even a fangirl; short dresses, killer heels that smash the pavement, curls and glitter makeup; all the things of the night. I love to travel, to drink and dance and smoke the night away, to meet new people, to talk to strangers and live on the wild side. Yakuza, bosozoku and bartenders are my friends of choice while motorcycle repair shops (where they only serve straight vodka) rock bars and clubs are the most likely places to find me.
I’m a creature of the night, loving to come home after the sun comes up and wake up after the sun goes down. I like city lights reflected against rain dampened pavement, steam rising into the cold air from building vents, the sounds of traffic lights on busy streets and things that go fast and hard. Street food, sake shots, Japanese policemen, gutter parties and loud music keep me sane.

Date: 2012-05-14 06:13 pm (UTC)Country: Sweden
Kpop (incl. biases): SS501, U-Kiss, Big Bang, DBSK, EXO-K, CNBlue, SHINee, Brian, Infinite, SNSD, Spica, Kara ... I listen to loads. I don't really have biases, I've never been very good with those. I love Kim Kyu Jong though.
Kdrama (incl. biases): I love Kdrama. Some of my faves so far are City Hunter, Flower Boy Ramyun Shop, Secret Garden, The Moon That Embraces the Sun, Sungkyunkwan Scandal, My Girlfriend is a Gumiho and Goong. Currently watching Rooftop Prince, Shut Up Flower Boy Band and Fashion King. There is not enough time!! Actors I like - Lee MinHo, Yoo Ah In, Song Joong Ki, Kim Soo Hyun, No Min Woo ... to name a few.
Also seen some Kmovies but not enough. List of ones to watch is long. I recently watched Penny Pinchers and that one was so funny.
What can we find in your LJ (private/fan stuff etc) / how much do you post: It's mostly private stuff, when I manage to post someting. I would like to get back to posting more but flist isn't interested in the stuff I like these days (the whole Korea thing for one) so I feel like I don't have much to say mostly.
Other interests (can be fandoms or hobbies or anything else): Reading - Most everything. My absolute fave author is Neil Gaiman. I used to read like a book a week at least but the past couple years not so much. Slowly getting back to it. Music - Duran Duran, Adam Lambert, ...um, I actually listen to most anything that sounds good. TV - I have way too many shows I follow. SPN, Criminal Minds, TVD, OUAT.. The list is long. Older shows include Stargate, SGA, Farscape and more.
I love making stuff with my hands. Bead animals, friendship bracelets, Korean lucky stars... I sort of get addicted when I start something and then I do like a million of whatever it is before I can stop.
What kind of friends are you looking for: A few interests in common to start with would be nice ?
Pet peeves: I'm not a native English speaker but if you can't keep apart the your and you're (and the rest of those) in a sentence... :p
Twitter/Tumblr/FB/etc: {Tumblr}. I have FB but not using it really, just to keep up with cousins in Finland mostly. {Twitter}, not so good at tweeting...
Anything else: I'm left handed. And a bit of a spazz. Sometimes. I'm kind of shy (and now I hear my friends laugh madly cos in a group of people I'm comfortable with I'm the one you can hear loudest :p), at least until I get to know you better.
Also.

What can we find in your LJ (private/fan stuff etc) / how much do you post: Fan stuff, lots of personal stuff, and just random things.
Other interests (can be fandoms or hobbies or anything else):> JPOP, anime, manga, j&k fashion, technology, politics (liberal), lols, sleep, food, baked goods, social justice (although most of the time, I try not to be annoying about it).
What kind of friends are you looking for: People who are generally chill with most things. I'm cool when people are silly (because I am too). I tend to be emotional so I need friends who are patient with me and willing to tell me it's okay and when I'm being dumb, I need someone to call me out on it.
Pet peeves: Being an offensive douche, ~lol troll~, I don't like it when people nitpick things. I try not to do it myself. I don't like people who are arrogant. I don't like people who put others down. I really don't care if you talk shit about other people but there's a line. Also, I hate rape & molestation jokes.
Twitter/Tumblr/FB/etc: http://twitter.com/rainbow_sauce
Anything else: Hopefully, it's okay that I post on this meme even though I'm 24. I'm going to be 25 this year in late August though. I have a young spirit and I've been through a lot of hell in my past. I'm not as experienced in real life experiences just yet so I admit I often act like a 16-year old from time to time. I tend to talk about people from my offline life and online life. I talk about my boyfriend and my emotions a lot. Whenever I read something political, I rage a lot. I try to be respectful to people even though I've had quite the past. I'm a pretty private person so I tend to keep everything to myself unless I feel I could trust people.
Also, enjoy this gif.

Other interests (can be fandoms or hobbies or anything else): I love love love the Mass Effect trilogy and spend quite a bit of time playing through it. I also really like ponies (both MLP: FiM and PonyIsland (http://http://ponyisland.net/) ponies).

Kdrama (incl. biases): First allow me to list some of my favorite KDramas: Boys Over Flowers, Playful Kiss, Last Scandal, A Man Called God, Dream High, Temptation of an Angel, Creating Destiny, Shining Inheritance... (seen a lot more, but that is a start.. lol)
What I'm watching now: Hong Gil Dong, Que Sera Sera, Me Too Flower!, Strongest Chil Woo.
Biases: Lee Min Ho, Kim Bum, Song Il Gook, Yoon Si Yoon, Jang Geun Suk, Bae Soo Bin...
What can we find in your LJ (private/fan stuff etc) / how much do you post: My LJ's don't have much, anymore, since I am making a transition to DW. However, mostly personal stuff goes on my personal journal (http://saanrio.dreamwidth.org/), so it is normally locked... My fic goes on my writing journal (http://7twistedshadows.dreamwidth.org/), and (most) fangirling has been relocated to tumblr, where you will find anything from KPop to fashion to my inner, hidden goth.
Other interests (can be fandoms or hobbies or anything else):> CPop (mostly SJM, Han Geng, Wang Lee Hom, Show Luo and Elva Hsaio, though EXO-M has grabbed me in ways that EXO-K may never be able to), fashion, things of a gothic nature, abandoned buildings/ghost towns, writing, reading, knitting, JPop (Mainly Arashi and NEWS), JRock (GazettE, An Cafe, Alice Nine, Miyavi, Nightmare, D'espairs Ray, Kagrra,) math, computers and just about anything else that captures my attention...
What kind of friends are you looking for: People who can discuss KPop or other things we have mutual interest in. I have my biases, and I love them to death, but I recently pissed off a whole lot of teenaged Shawols when I said I thought Sherlock was not the comeback that they deserved. So, yeah, if I don't think something is good, I will say so, and I appreciate people who can get past their bias enough to discuss something. Just because you love something doesn't mean you don't or can't see room for improvement, and that is not a bad thing, right?
Pet peeves: Oh, so many.. mainly, when it comes to online, they are people who refuse to listen to any opinion but their own and people who need everything sugar coated for them. I am a very very blunt person. I usually try to be nice about things, but sometimes, I fail. It bothers me when people get butthurt because I said what I thought when they asked for my opinion, instead of spending twenty minutes trying to think of a way to say it that wouldn't offend anyone.
Twitter/Tumblr/FB/etc: twitter: @Rachel_0506, tumblr: http://saanriotwisted.tumblr.com/
Anything else: Not really... sorry, no gifs from me today.
This is a great idea. Thank you!
Date: 2012-05-15 02:20 pm (UTC)Country: USA
Kpop (incl. biases): 2NE1 (Minji), B.A.P. (YoungJae), Boyfriend (DongHyun), CNBlue (JungShin), Coed School (TaeWoon, Chanmi), Infinite (SungJong, DongWoo), MBLAQ (ChunDoong), miss A (Fei), MYNAME (ChaeJin), SS501 (KyuJong, HyunJoong), SuJu (Yesung, Sungmin, EunHyuk), U-Kiss (Eli, Hoon) - I'll include EXO-K only because D.O. totally wowed me with that voice of his....
Kdrama (incl. biases): 4th Period Murder Mystery, Boys Over Flowers. I've started a few others, but I don't have the time to sit in front of a computer and watch them.
What can we find in your LJ (private/fan stuff etc) / how much do you post: Some private, most of it is about my writing - progress checks, etc., and posts of fanfiction I'm working on (or finished with), with occasional fangirling about things that interest me. My family - three kids and an amazing husband. Goals, lots of those! I post semi-regularly - two to three times a week, sometimes more, depending on how busy my family is and if I have anything I want to share.
Other interests (can be fandoms or hobbies or anything else): Very fond of Arashi (LOVE Maou (Jdrama)), horses, music of all sorts... um, crocheting.... (trying to remember what's on my LJ). Old fandoms include Prince of Tennis and Power Rangers (and LOTS of others).
What kind of friends are you looking for: People to talk to, hold conversations with.
Pet peeves: I'm sure I have them, but they might all have to do with writing... OH. The inability to write a complete sentence without resorting to text-speak or whatever it is. That drives me crazy.
Twitter/Tumblr/FB/etc: Tumblr - I'm not on FB much any more since I got a tumblr. It's much more varied than my lj is. I'm still working on that. Oh, and there's the writing one, too, if you're interested in that: writing tumbler
Anything else: I'm a bit off, but which of us aren't? I love music, I love the feelings I get when I write, and I love to share that with people. And, to be honest, my whole purpose for having a bias is to have someone fun to write about.

Date: 2012-05-15 02:36 pm (UTC)Country: Netherlands (Holland)
Kpop (incl. biases):
SS501 [I like all members, but I love Hyung Jun to death],
U-Kiss - incl Kibum and Xander [Soohyun, Eli, Kibum]
Infinite [still getting to know the members, I'm watching Sesame Player to get to know them, based on that my faves right now are Hoya, Sungyeol and Woohyun but it could still change]
SHINee, TVQX, MBLAQ, Super Junior [not too familair with the members, but I love KyuHyun's voice and for some reason I seem to be following Siwon on twitter ... ] CN Blue, Big Bang, Exo-K, DBSK
These are all bands that are on my playlist of which I don't know the members (or not well). Love to know more about them though.
More on playlist (it's a mile long so I'm not gonna list everything)
TARA,B.A.P, Trax, F.T Island, Hwanhee, Jung Jae Wook, 2AM, 2PM, Boyfriend, 4Men ,Kim Yun Ah, K. WILL, Bubble Siters, Spica, Secret, Se&en, WheeSung. Shinwha,Park Hyo Shin, Brian lots of OSTs and lots of others.
Kdrama (incl. biases): I started watching them not too long ago and now I'm addicted >.<
Some of my faves: City Hunter, Flower Boy Ramyun Shop, Secret Garden, The Moon That Embraces the Sun, Sungkyunkwan Scandal, BRAIN (OMG. Seriously, why has no one watched this ?!!)
I'm currently watching: Rooftop Prince, FashionKing, Shut Up Flower Boy band and Return of Iljimae.
I have a looooooong looooooooooong list of what I still want to watch (I need a century off to watch all that >.<)
Lee Min Ho (both of them :p) , Yoo Ah In, Song Joong Ki, Kim Soo Hyun,Jung Il Woo, Shin Ha Kyun, Kim Bum, Kwon Se In - and probably a few more that I'm forgetting right now.
What can we find in your LJ (private/fan stuff etc) / how much do you post: it's a bit of a mishmash of private and fandom and randomish stuff. Though at the moment it's mostly private.
Same problem as
Right now I'm trying to post once or twice a week (but there's times I won't make that), would be more with some more kpop/kdrama friends on Flist.
Other interests (can be fandoms or hobbies or anything else):
I watch a million tv shows (and then I wonder why I never have time for anything). They're all in my userinfo but a few of my faves are: Borgias, Game of Thrones, White Collar, Once upon a time, TVD, Supernatural and Merlin (BBC).
Also LOTR and Narnia. Old fandoms: Stargate SG1 and Atlantis
I'm trying to learn Korean (I'm probably the slowest learner ever). I like talking walks, reading and history. Gosh. I'm boring.
Oh and I like making icons !
What kind of friends are you looking for: I'm not too picky but a few shared interests would be nice. Preferably someone who doesn't just post personal stuff, I'd like to squee a little every once in a while.
NOT someone who only posts memes >.<
Open minded and respectful of someone else's opinion would be nice too (disagreeing is more than ok, thinking you're always the one who's right .. no).
Pet peeves: I'm picky with subs. If WithS2 subs anything I won't watch it with any other subs. So sometimes that means I'm behind on watching stuff. (not sure that is a peeve ? LOL. I guess my peeve is crappy subs with lots of spelling mistakes and such ?)
Also I really don't like when people call Hyung Jun BABY >.< I know it's his nickname, but he's outgrown it now and he's also stated numerous times he doesn't like that nickname anymore.
Twitter/Tumblr/FB/etc: Twitter: omgwtfbbqloon (locked) & butterfly8772 (public, used for stalking celebs, don't post many tweets there since I only have 2,5 followers or so :p) TUMBLR. My FB is private-ish. I won't add anyone there that I don't know at least a little better.

What can we find in your LJ (private/fan stuff etc) / how much do you post: you'll find random daily entrys of my life, I don't spazz much about my biased (because I think I can't spazz, but well XDD), sometimes memes or fanfictions (but I'm not posting this lately XD). at the moment I'm not updating so much, but I always try to write more (maybe when we finally moved out XD)
Other interests (can be fandoms or hobbies or anything else): Harry Potter, Pokemon, books ♥, knitting <3

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 Shakespeare XD)
What kind of friends are you looking for: I've been a fan of Kpop since ~2001, and what with Shinhwa comeback and most of the idols that I used to like having come back from the army now, I'd really love to have somebody to spazz over some ahjusshi idols with me XD! I'm open to new groups and stuff too, if you want to introduce them to me, but tbh I've been into Kpop so long I look at the new kids these days with kind of a jaded eye lol. :x
Pet peeves: "oppa is always right" attitude, and people who have no respect for Kpop history. also, tbqh, JYJ, but I'm trying to overcome that...
Twitter/Tumblr/FB/etc: @kangyera on Twitter
Anything else: If it wasn't already clear from what I've said above, I'm mostly active in a Jpop (Kisumai) fandom and I do talk about them a lot. I understand that can be annoying for people who aren't into them, so no hard feelings if no one cares for Kisumai flail ^^. I really am looking for more Kpop fans to befriend though, because not having anyone to talk about Kpop with is making me more distant and I don't want that!

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?).
What can we find in your LJ (private/fan stuff etc) / how much do you post: I post random stuff on LJ, but everything's locked. Once you friend me, you'll be able to find me on tumblr/twitter/etc (I keep those usernames separate from my LJ one). I post about work, personal life and fandom(s).
Other interests (can be fandoms or hobbies or anything else): I'm really into Chinese (really, Taiwanese) pop music right. But my favorite is actually JJ Lin (though I adore Alien Huang and Show Luo). I'm a big fanfic reader (mostly Avengers at the moment, Steve/Tony all the way). I dabble in other fandoms, but haven't written anything in ages.
What kind of friends are you looking for: People who are fun to talk to and are interested in some of the same stuff as me. I also LOVE the idea of 25+, because the majority of kpop fans I cross paths with are wee little things and sometimes it sucks feeling old (at 34, omg).
Pet peeves: sexism/racism/ignorance and also, people who make me look at pictures of Yunho because, no thank you D:
Twitter/Tumblr/FB/etc: see above
Anything else: I'm a librarian. Um. I actually like more people in Super Junior than I listed above (as in Eunhyuk and Yesung, also Henry, and Kangin, but I'm wobbly on him right now). I watched GI Joe: Rise of the Cobra for Lee Byung Hun. I've seen all the Twilight movies, despite not liking them OR the books ... I read a lot. I'm a huge nerd and I share a lot of my kdrama/kpop obsessions with an RL friend -- though I'm always -- ALWAYS -- looking for more people to talk to (mostly because aside from my RL friend, most people I'm friends with totally don't care about kpop/kdramas/etc). Oh, and I like reading about cultures surrounding the fandoms I'm obsessed with, so I'm reading a lot about China/Korea/Taiwan. Also, ask me about books and you'll never get me to shut up. :D And, lastly, my guilty pleasure/secret shame is that I've got a thing for TOP without actually liking Big Bang. At all.
