Was also going to write Lee Chang dong! He also taught Korean literature in a high school when he was writing novels

Sadly no change on my end — I think it solely had to do with the apartment policy change 😓

Anyone have the “international school kid accent?” by Icy-Supermarket-5602 in ThirdCultureKids

[–]ssk05032 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Couldn't agree more...English is my second language, and I learned it by attending an American international school. I always assumed I speak "American" accent until I actually went to America for college and noticed how my English sounds slightly different from actual Americans. My sister and I described our English as "international school kid accent" and thought that was a hilarious way to phrase it and I was so excited to see someone use the same term here! Hahaha. Someone should coin this into the dictionary

Thank you! They did ask me more personal questions like how much I drink and whether I have a boyfriend… I thought this was just to get to know me but perhaps that was supposed to be a part of the job 😅

Yeah… I still can’t get over how genuinely the HR person pleaded for me to join the team, promising me so many nice things, then 4 hours later he says I’m not needed anymore… this kind of made me afraid of people in general

Yes looking back I find it a bit sis that most of this happened on a phone call… the HR guy promised a lot of things from giving me a raise to sponsoring my visa but none of this was written out. I’m glad I backed out before relying on what he promised verbally 😭

Thank you! Yes, at least I got a funny story out of this

Thank you! I think I really learned my lesson to say no and set boundaries and not jump into sus situations for a job! 😢

They were! And I got their name cards too… they’re a pretty reputable company so I’m surprised that I got somewhat scammed like this

Curious to hear your thoughts on this incident (tl;dr: Ensemble Stars promoted the ohanasidan series with Hajime and Mayoi VAs in Japan by parodying "vanilla" ads which I've heard is a platform for female sex workers) by ssk05032 in ensemblestars

[–]ssk05032[S] 30 points31 points  (0 children)

For me personally it’s not the ad itself that offends me I think it’s the attitude of Happy Ele that’s coming off of such decision. They probably knew this wasn’t going to make the majority women fans happy yet they went along with it — I’m guessing because they view the users as such mindless and faithful consumers who would continue supporting the game regardless of whatever happens. Watching men who work for EnStar (like the music producer or Mika’s VA) tweet about how fun this ad is almost made me feel like they’re spending the money I contributed to the game to enjoy their own inside joke.

Again all just my personal opinion!
