Don't Hurt Me!

Last Tuesday, I went to the theater to watch a Korean show called Jump, which combines martial arts, jaw-dropping acrobats, and a story-line which is pure comedy. (´ヮ`) It's actually the second time I've watch it, and I would watch it again if they were to come back to the UK again next year. (^_^)



During the interval, I asked one of my friends if she enjoyed the show and she started an argument by saying "Why don't they talk much in the show? Why can't Asians (Orientals) be known for acting, and not just for martial arts and kung-fu?" (._.) She is right in one sense because that's what Asian (Orientals) seem to only be famous for in the Western film industry. (-_-) Look at Rain (Korean actor/singer) for example, in his first US movie, he plays a ninja in a martial arts movie (Ninja Assassins). Come on! Rain don't do martial arts films in Korea, he probably never kicked as high as a can of Coke before making this movie. ( ´_ゝ`)The same goes for Lee Byeong-heon (Korean actor), he is a talented actor but guess what? In his first US movie (G.I Joe) he is also a NINJA! ( ´Д`)



I guess that's the way life is and it works both ways because there's never been a westerner who's made a break in the Chinese movie industry, so my friend agreed and the argument ended. ( ゚ ヮ゚) Anyway, if you've not seen Jump, then I highly recommend you watch it, if they plan to tour in your country. (´ー`)

Let's Drink Tea

Hi Wisemen. Are you living in London? You can buy the tea from the Korean supermarket near Tottenham Court road station. You can also buy from the supermarket Goodge Street. I hope this helps.
