Anyone of us can create the thread 😊 We need to start at least two threads now, hehe. I'm still a bit swamped for until 2wks more or less, and my lappy has been giving me grief (will purchase the replacement I've been eyeing as soon as there's a good sale, mwehehe). I can also start the thread/s but only after around two weeks from now, if the thread/s not yet created by that time? Good thing with his upcoming movie and drama, all the important links, info, and official websites are mentioned in their respective X accounts once officially announced. 🤗 Ehem... There are recent IG rumours of My Happy Marriage movie sequel. If so, I hope Meme reprises his role. 「silent」which was by Fuji TV is in Viki, so I'm assuming the new drama would be too, unless Netflix bags the right to also air it... A lot of Meme's previous projects are also in Amazon Prime video.

ctto Morning! 10

@partyon I thought Slovenia would any moment transform to Gollum. 😅 Something about her teeth, their costumes, and dance moves. ctto 8

May it happen this year! 🙂 +×÷×÷×÷÷×÷×÷×+ I want what they're having, hehehe. 18

I'm watching what are posted in YT 😁 The Baby Lasagna number was great, and hopefully they win. Won't it be nice if the viewers' favourite also gets the top prize? ctto 22

Meme's first time role as Daddy! 😊 +×÷+×÷+÷×+÷×+ Finally able to start watching Shogun! The 1st ep (couldn't binge watch cos too busy, sigh) started great. Looking forward to the next eps when I get the time. I love how realistic it is cinematography-wise. Also, the power of words, as told by an interpreter - who could easily twist words for his own agenda.

Yay, something to look forward to on July! 🤩 Brought by the team behind 「silent」, Meme stars in 「The Beginning of the Seas」, Mondays at 9pm from July 9th via Fuji TV. 22

@CarolynH, wish granted! 🤩 Two months to go @kingpin @rocher22! Premiering July 9th, new drama 「海のはじまり」「The Beginning of the Sea 」of Ren Meguro airs every Monday 9pm via Fuji TV. It's also a reunion with the team that gave us 「silent」. ❤️ "Announced ❗️ "July 9th " 「#海のはじまり」 「#The Beginning of the Sea 」 "A family story drawn through the connections between various parents and children. "Starring: Ren Meguro Screenplay : Miku Ubukata Music: Masahiro Tokuda Director: Taiki Kazama, Mai Takano, Jung Eun Hee "We create with the best team with all our heart. "We will be announcing the performers soon. "Thank you." (Ken Murase, Producer) ~~~~~~ " 「#海のはじまり」「The Beginning of the Sea」 "When and how do people become "fathers" and when and how do they become "mothers"? "This is a story about a family told through the relationships between various parents and children." (Umi No Hajimari/The Beginning of the Sea X) Basing from the haircut, pretty sure this was the drama Meme mentioned to his senpai Kazuya Kamenashi in YT around September last year. 🙂

She and her back-up dancers certainly pushed the boundaries and went for shock factor. But why do I feel Gollum vibes with her??? 😅 Like she'd transform to Gollum anytime and hiss "My precious..." Props and performance are OK with Finland, but yeah, he looked like an oversized toddler happy to run around showing off his barely there undies rather than a diaper. 🤣 Croatia's Baby Lasagna of course! I like their stage, and they're performing to win, or be the most popular this year. Tagging @sadthe1st for chicken lasagna and white lasagna soup. ❤️ ctto ctto 2️⃣2️⃣

You can't make me watch if the videos keep buffering 😆 YT will then double down asking me to go premium again, LOL! I actually don't mind ads, so... Woah. For sure they did dress rehearsals? But if there aren't rules on costumes, then no one's stopping them going naked as they perform? ctto 28

Is he a frontrunner or a fave? 😄 ctto 86

The national anthem 😅 +×÷+×÷=÷×+÷×+ ctto Craving chicken curry with potatoes and carrots. ÷×+÷×+=+×÷+×÷ Takizawa Kabuki's "Men and Women" group date 😆 More importantly, who'll be driving this time? 😂 118

ctto Back to Shogun. I should finish all 10 wonderful eps this week. 🤗 Anna Sawai as Toda Mariko. Girl crush unlocked. ctto 122

I'm used to walking briskly and quietly ever since I was a kid, cos I didn't want to wake up and be chased by my neighbours' unleashed dogs while going somewhere at 5:00am. 😏 Because of those doggies, I also learned to run without sound. 126

Belated Happy 12th! To more years! 🥳🎊 MV shot in Thailand, when all members of Snow Man performed in Japan Expo Thailand 2020 edition. Leader Hikaru Iwamoto and Japanese-Thai member Koji Mukai returned and participated in Japan Expo Thailand 2023 activities.

Yeah, dropped by the brands he endorses and out of the limelight for a year or so. With so much competition in the industry, it's a miracle that XZ was able to come back and still be popular. Crazy XZ fans never saw it coming, that their own overzealousness harmed XZ. ctto 134

I liked him in Untamed since he did his role so well (there's barely a miscast in the drama IMO). He dances well, being a previous Korean idol and had been a coach/mentor in a dance reality show. I think the tension between his fans and XZ's is mainly due to the BL pairing up of them? It won't do since apart from that kind of rel that they're pushing won't fly where they are, they're also idols who are de facto expected to be single. ctto 138

Come on now, not every darkening the face and skin would have something to do with "black face". 😑 https://www.kbizoom.com/famous-idol-actor-under-fire-for-wearing-blackface-in-upcoming-movie/ Who likes Wang Yibo? @rocat? ctto Fortunately there are netizens who aren't taking the accusations of discrimination and mockery lying down, and are ready to put these uneducated Karens and Kevins into their right place.

🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 ×÷×÷×÷×÷×÷× It's a newer version of the Nigerian Prince scam 🙃 If not Keanu Reeves, it'll be another very well-known and well-liked star. How can they be so gullible... 148

😆😆😆😆😆 152

I saw this very sad, old Reddit story shared again while taking a peek at FB. 😔 There are no words. ×÷=×÷=×÷=×÷=× ctto Happy weekend! 160
