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 ;)

Kpop (incl. biases):Brace yourselves: Shinhwa (Minwoo), H.O.T. (Moon Hee Jun), FlyToTheSky (Brian), Epik High, Lee Jung Hyun, Lee Seung Gi, MBLAQ (Seungho, G.O.), B2ST (Yoseob), INFINITE (all of them? haha Woohyun, Dongwoo, Sungyeol, Sunggyu), SISTAR (Hyorin, Bora), Secret (Hyosung, Zinger), 4Minute (Jiyoon), 2NE1 (Dara, Minzy), B1A4 (Sandeul, Baro), Boyfriend, Sunny Hill, U-KISS (Soohyun, Hoon, Dongho), BIG BANG (GD, Daesung), 1Tym (Baek Kyung)
Okay, this is taking forever and I keep forgetting what I've already typed. XD I know I won't be able to remember to list everyone but real quick: BoA, Dalmatian, NU'EST, SPICA, Teen Top, Loveholic, Bye Bye Sea, 2AM, 2PM, miss A, Cherry Filter, Block B (Zico, U-KWON), and probably more that I'm forgetting.
Kdrama (incl. biases):Forgive me if I don't include biases: Boys Over Flowers, Playful Kiss, You're Beautiful, Personal Taste, What's Up?, My Girlfriend is a Gumiho, Greatest Love. I only started watching KDramas in the last year so there are a lot still on my list to watch.
What can we find in your LJ (private/fan stuff etc) / how much do you post: I usually post pretty often and I like to think it's a good mix of fangirling, rambling, pictures of my cats, and how my day/week was. Sometimes I make icons (I need to make more @_@) and I'm trying to write more fanfic (I've only written 2 KPop fics so far).
Other interests (can be fandoms or hobbies or anything else):>Hello Kitty, zombies, Neopets, World of Warcraft, stand-up comedy, X-Men, The Sims 2, occasionally I talk about JRock or JPop even though I don't follow them like I used to. Same with anime. I really love horror movies and watch more t.v. than I should >>; hrm... I dunno. I have a lot of interests.
What kind of friends are you looking for:Pretty much anyone who likes the same groups I do, posts on a more or less regular basis and comments. I'm really looking for friends I can talk to. Someone who doesn't flip their shit over SHINee or Super Junior or EXO or KARA or SNSD or DBSK/JYJ would be nice. Liking them is fine; I'm aware it's damn near impossible to find someone who doesn't like any of those groups, but as long as you aren't crazy about it then we'll be fine. I don't go out of my way to say anything about any of those groups but I want to be able to crack a joke without someone jumping down my throat.
Pet peeves:People who jump down my throat for cracking a joke about a group I don't like. *lol* Liars. People who don't take other people's feelings into consideration before they open their mouths. People who are selfish. I honestly could go on for days. If you get to know me you'll learn pretty quickly what my pet peeves are.
Twitter/Tumblr/FB/etc:I don't use Twitter so much these days but I'm ChoomChoomPsy on there.
I took a break from Tumblr, too, but I'm probably going to become more active again over the summer. I'm hotpinkpanic over there.
My FB is here. I post there pretty frequently.
I also have AIM and MSN for anyone interested.
Anything else:I'm very random and very honest. I'm not shy about my feelings or opinions, but I do try not to hurt anyone's feelings or upset them. I talk a lot and use a lot of detail so sometimes my posts tend to go on. I hope I didn't scare anyone off because I think I'm actually pretty nice and I'd really enjoy making some new friends.

Date: 2012-05-17 01:52 am (UTC)I went into it because of Jaejoong, so came out the other end convinced that he was amazing (him being a bitch was great). What I didn't expect was to actually really like Wang Ji Hye's character. She was fantastic.

Have you seen The Seaside Motel? Ikuta Toma, Yamada Takayuki, Tamayama Tetsuji...

Date: 2012-05-17 06:58 am (UTC)There are so many dramas I want to watch! And I'm totally open to jdramas but not watched any yet.
As long as you love doing it it's all good. Hee. The impatient thing I can relate to. Lots of things I want to learn but I always want to know it like yesterday and skip the actual learning process.
I used the icon because I guessed they were an OTP. :) <33333 I love those boys together.

Date: 2012-05-17 10:12 am (UTC)I love cats, I have two myself. Sometimes I do post pics or vids of them too.
And one of your cats is named Joonie ! ♥ Ok ok I know it's not 'my' (ss501) Joonie, but still, it's an good name!
I like your kpop bands, the one's I've heard of that is and the other ones I'm curious to find out about. I like hearing new stuff.
I'm not really flipping my shit over any of the groups you mentioned so I think we're safe there- besides people should be able to take a few jokes. As long as they're not mean or degrading I'm fine with it.
And
(esp seeing as my mum doesn't get any of the fan stuff at all ... >.< never has and never will. She liked Cliff Richard when she was in her teens ... I think that says enough :p)
Anyways ... friends ?

Date: 2012-05-17 10:24 am (UTC)Ah I forgot groups, too, actually. I realized while I was watching M!Countdown just now that I neglected B.A.P. and now I feel bad. @_@ Ah well.
*lol* Well, my mom's not into KPop as much as she's really into MBLAQ. She'll listen to other groups with me or watch other things and ask questions but she isn't actively a fan of anyone but them. U-KISS and Infinite a little bit, but mostly she's all about MBLAQ. It's weird but also kinda neat I guess.
aww Boo for allergies. I don't know what I'd do if I was allergic to cats.
Anyhow, yes sure! I'd be happy to be friends. ^_^

Another journal stalker, eh? hehe It's okay. I don't mind. I also don't know who Cliff Richard is. >>;; My mom was in love with Donnie Osmond in her teens, so... I guess she's used to liking teen idols? lol I don't know. It really surprised me when my mom said she liked MBLAQ and needed her daily dose.
Oh, and yes to the friend thing. hehe It'll be nice not to be the unnie for a change! hahaha
