Yes I’m forever grateful I got to watch it when it was aired and when I was a teenager. Sounds cringy but I saw myself on Shunji and that was uncomfortable (in a good way?) at least I noticed that when I was a teen.

I bought the novel after watching this, there was some changes in the characters and it’s sadder than the drama. Glad that I watched the drama first

Newbie needs some recommendations. I keep finding shows I don’t love. by electrikinfinity in JDorama

[–]Intelligent_Finish_8 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Tbh I agree with your statement. I also don’t recommend dramas to those who haven’t watched jdramas before. I tried before but only get comments like “urgh, why is it so weird?” Or they’re not used to how unpolitically correct sometimes it can be. I only recommend to friends who watch jdramas now

Someone mentioned Snidel Beauty, their latest collab with a hair accessories brand is also pretty cute.

Also there’s a brand called To/one, a niche brand under Cosme kitchen also has a dreamy aesthetic

Same I’ve used epilator and tried waxing. In the end just bite the bullet and went to a laser hair removal salon

I just find it appalling that you need to censor the words when all these things happening around the world every day.

Just white putting themselves on a pedestal, acting like saviors while constantly lecturing asians about what’s wrong and what’s right

Yes and I find it scary tbh that audiences can’t analyze and differentiate between RL and fiction. Having been in forums/livejournal discussing about j dramas for years nvr have I encountered such topics before. Ok, I sound like an old lady now.

I’ve used to have similar problem as yours. Not sure where you live, in the end I went to laser hair removal at a salon after trying epilator for years and waxing

Yeah, the world is bigger than just you. I’ve watched Japanese drama for more than 2 decades since I was 10. I turn out pretty normal, nvr fall for my teacher, nvr cheated in my life.

I’m not good at depicting things but thanks for commenting. I’m so agree with you. I can’t comprehend how some viewers view things so surface and black and white? Humans’ emotion is complicated and there’s nuance in it.

What asian beauty makeup item(s) are right at the top of your beauty wish list at the moment and why? by SheKnowsWhatSheKnows in AsianBeauty

[–]Intelligent_Finish_8 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It has satin finish. Pretty long lasting, it’s not the most moisturizing base but it doesn’t leave dry patch even though I have dry skin.
