    @Biology Lesson But the personality type is based on a person’s answers so its at least closer to reality than maybe astrology? I did it and found it to be somewhat logical. However, if a person is deluded about oneself perhaps will get inaccurate results. But its at least a result of the person’s answers therefore close to how the person perceives him/herself. 
     

    @azureblue7 I didn’t watch the fight but sounds like it was rough on him. Im glad his friends were there with him.

    @YouwinJH Dont know about the Bollywood actors  but even Tom Cruise, who is like Hollywood royalty and very careful about his image does not take himself too seriously at all. I watch a lot of late night TV mostly from US and  occasionally something like the Graham Norton show and Ive seen Tom Cruise be very silly and fun. Also, lots of imitations and impressions happen on those shows and they are supposed to be fun.

    @Biology Lesson Wait! So that was an imitation of JH? I had no idea lol. At least he is not yelling :P

     

     Now that I heard it again, it does sound a bit like him. JH is like the Christopher Walken of Korea. Everyone seems to have an “impression” of him.

    Im going to bet that the interviewer did some paraphrasing. Even in his korean interviews JH has interesting thoughts but uses kind of complicated ways to express them. So, I don’t think we can expect him to be quite so eloquent and concise in his english interview? But Im just guessing and like you Im very curious to see his progress

     

    P.S For some reason I liked his english during Dance of the Dragon time. It sounded softer to me than I heard him in later years.

    @YouwinJH Very interesting analysis. I too can relate to the overthinking obsessive side. And also with the stagnant side! Lol You make a great point about how the overthinking energy needs to be channelled. I need to start dancing or something. Im terrible at Sports but dancing is something I’d enjoy. Go for the theater acting! My brother did it for a few years and I loved the exercises they had him do. I feel its a form of therapy. It prompts self discovery. If I wasn’t a super coward Id try it myself

     

    And now you got me curious about JNRs character. I will google to see what it was all about.

    And to think CTH annoyed me so much before! :yum: Judging from the dynamic @Biology Lesson describes, I’d actually relate to him more than I would with someone like JH (referring more to the anxiety and sad clown side, not so much the empathy or intelligence as I may be dense and obtuse myself and wouldnt dare praise myself in that regard) which is why I said that “positive” friends are needed but they can also be obnoxious. There might be a correlation with being optimistic AND being stubborn/persistent? There might also be a correlation with being so positive and strong but also coming off as a “know it all” (maybe?) Hyuk comes off as a “know it all” to me sometimes. He seems to like to preach lol. He reminds me of a very good friend of mine who I love and need in my life but sometimes I feel like smacking her. Other times she inspires me and her positive energy helps me get out of my funk. Its just that she has a hard time showing vulnerability and sometimes this makes her seem less empathic to those who struggle with deppression or anxiety for example. Its almost like some people are capable of lifting their own spirits with sheer willpower and discipline (which is wonderful) but that same quality may close them off to understanding or putting themselves in others shoes

     

    Anyway, Im projecting to much lol! I suppose JH is probably less obtuse when he is not busy on his preaching monologue mode . He plays complex characters well so Im sure he is observant and all but maybe processes things and situations differently. The mode he adopts may as well be social anxiety too. He probably detaches a bit. Despite being among friends he is still so “odd”. I just wonder how self aware of this he is. In this respect (being and feeling like a weirdo even among friends ) I do relate to him :hwaiting2:

    @YouwinJH We all need a friend like JH! The kind of friend that makes you feel like anything is possible. Sometimes they can be annoying if we are in a negative mood haha  but in the end they give you hope. We all need this these days. I noticed CTH quieter than usual. I felt they didn’t tease as much as usual but also JH was not letting them get a word in anyway :lol: whoever did the captions was too amused by him too.

    @YouwinJH The limits depend on every person. 
     

    I am for letting people do as they please since I don't feel an urge to watch every content they put out. So, to me, if they film their travels or not, makes no difference. 
     

    As his fan, Im glad he has plans and I hope he is coping well with the family abroad. I admire his positive attitude in general. Its inspiring to me.

    Thank you for posting the Dragon Brothers video with eng subs! I enjoyed it. I think I can now say I do like the Dragon brothers and I can understand why the tend to tease JH :lol: but their friendship does seem genuine, flaws and all. Very nice how they’ve adopted Kang Hoon.  I didn’t watch the Mongolia delivery show so to me, this was fun. JH was hyper this ep. I saw good reactions to the video. That was sweet. 
     

    @YouwinJH As JH was saying,  they are growing old, so they should do whatever they want while they still can. Who knows what their body and lifestyle will allow at 50. Life is too short. Its ok if they want to travel every year and record it. Not hurting anyone and I guess its not too costly if they get sponsorship of some kind.

    @azureblue7 Lol!!! If I had won Id also stare at the screen and just blink for 2 mins! Im sure of it. 
     

    Awww I dont have a twiiter account and it looks like the fan protected her tweets

     

    @Biology Lesson The fan signing and videocall is a way to promote the photocard. I read this is common practice among singers/idols and its probably why it seems “strange” for an actor to do it. I suppose its a mix of fan service and way to promote the artist as a brand while at the same time selling something.

    @Biology Lesson @YouwinJH So sad what happened to LSK. To me, he was a really good actor and will miss his presence. He had an amazing voice. I still cant process he had to go in this sad way. He was in the first kdrama I watched “Coffee Prince”. Later I enjoyed him in “Miss Korea” and “My Mister”. I was unaware of his recent struggles. Its heartbreaking to see someone who is already suffering from addiction, being pushed by society this way instead of getting help. I heard his wife who is also an actress lost a job because of his situation. May he rest in peace. 
     

    P.S Couldn’t help but feel extra sad since he is from JHs generation. Just to think that no one is safe from being bullied into a deep depression. Im glad JH is trying to carve his own path and hopefully he finds one that is less dependent on just Korea’s acceptance.

    @YouwinJH Yes, you did say it was a slow burn romance. I was invested at the beginning but felt the main couple’s story became stagnant and fizzled on last eps so I was left underwhelmed in the end. I expected the male lead’s “secret” to be much darker or traumatic, probably. I also didn’t feel their chemistry and at some point I became too aware of their acting. I think I was watching this with my head and stopped “feeling” it at at some point. But its ok, the good moments made the time I invested worth it (although it’s not a drama I’d rewatch or recommend). I watched the drama, not only because of your recommendation but because I heard many good reviews so I guess my expectations were high so it being underwhelming for me was a surprise.
     

    Anyway, Ill stop because its an off topic here :ph34r:

     

    @Biology Lesson I’m also not a fan of variety shows and prefer to not know much about actors personal life. I think we are all on the same boat waiting for a new acting project. :brokenheart:
