If you missed our earlier posts, you can check them out as follows: Ele, Natalia, JJ, Sean, j3ffc, Uyen, MC, Elaine, lotusgirl, ABV, learjet, dreamingdrama.

Today, I’m pleased to announce that Diasporic Chick is sharing her drama year.

Diasporic Chick’s been a part of our little Patreon community for a while, but this is the first time she’s sharing her drama year with us. What a great way to get to know her, yes?

dreamingdrama’s been a part of our little Patreon community for some time, but this is the first time she’s sharing her drama year with us.

Although dreamingdrama has shared little bits of her drama journey with us over on Patreon, I’m excited that we’re finally getting a formal glimpse into her drama journey, which will help us to get to know her properly. 🥳

Thanks dreamingdrama, for taking the time to write this post! 😘

Today, I’m pleased to announce that learjet is sharing her drama year.

learjet’s been a part of our little Patreon community for a while now, but we don’t see her around super often, so this feels like a great chance to catch up with her and see how her drama year went, in 2023.

Of course, whenever she does show up, she’s a pleasure to have around – here’s hoping that you get to hang out with us more in 2024, learjet!

I do find that learjet’s taste in dramas is often similar to mine, so if your drama taste is similar to my drama taste, you might be extra interested in what learjet has to say about the dramas she’s checked out. 😉

Thanks learjet, for taking the time to write this post! 😘

I hope you guys enjoy!

Today, I’m pleased to announce that ABV is sharing his drama year.

ABV’s pretty new to our little Patreon community, but he’s been settling in super well, and we’ve all been having such a great time getting to know him.

What I love about ABV, is how he approaches dramas with a lot of thought, and a lot of heart, at the same time. For someone who says that he’s late to the drama game, he’s sure watched a good number of dramas – and he’s sharing his picks today, from 2023, as well as from pre-2023.

Thanks ABV, for taking the time to write this post!

I hope you guys enjoy!

Today, I’m pleased to announce that lotusgirl is sharing her drama year.

We haven’t seen lotusgirl around as much this past year, but, as you’ll see in her post, she’s been enjoying a full and active life, what with her varied interests AND her expanding brood of grandkids!

Among her many talents, lotusgirl is also a skilled photographer and artist, and you can check out more of her fantastic work at her blog here! 🤩 You can find her on Instagram @lamosscreative as well.

I don’t know how she does it, but in spite of it all, lotusgirl still makes time for dramas, and for us, her pals, over at Patreon.

Thanks lotusgirl, for making time for us – and for taking the time to write this post!

I hope you guys enjoy!

Today, I’m pleased to announce that Elaine is sharing her drama year.

You know that Korean phrase 열심히 살아 (yeolsimhi sal-a), which literally means to live hardworking-ly?

Well, I feel that that’s what Elaine does, because she’s got so much going on, in the multiple roles that she plays, in her life.

With work, family, kids, friends, a dog, and everything else in-between, Elaine’s got a lot going on, and I’m so grateful that she continues to make time for dramas – and for us! – in the midst of it all.

Not only that, she also makes time to remind me not to push myself too much, and often gives me suggestions on how to do things in a way that would allow me to be kinder to myself. Thank you, Elaine. 🥲

If you’d like to read more of Elaine’s writing, she wrote a wonderfully insightful post about doppelgängers and the question of identity, which you can check out here.

I hope you guys enjoy!

Patreon Year End Awards: MC’s Year In Dramas 2023!

Today, I’m pleased to announce that MC is sharing her drama year.

Once upon a time, some years ago, MC mentioned in one of our conversations here on the blog, that she was about to become a mom, and while I was super happy for her, I also (secretly! And wistfully 😩😅) wondered if this was the beginning of the end, of her drama time, and therefore, our conversations.

(I mean, it’s a fair and reasonable thing to wonder, I think, since my own sister stopped watching dramas altogether, when she became a mom and had to reprioritize things in her life. 😅)

I’m SO happy that MC never left us, and today, is still such a warm and positive presence here and on Patreon, even while juggling all the other priorities in her life. Thank YOU, MC, for making us one of your priorities. ❤️🥲😘

If you’d like to read more of MC’s writing, she recently went to Korea (fresh from recovering from a broken toe, no less! 😱) and wrote about her travels in a fun guest post for us, which you can check out here.

I hope you guys enjoy!

Today, I’m pleased to announce that Uyen is sharing her drama year.

Uyen hasn’t been around as much this year, due to very important real-life things (like grad school – congrats Uyen! 🥳), so I’m really touched that she’s making time to share her drama year with us, nonetheless (thanks Uyen! 😘).

Of course, I’m always glad when Uyen does manage to come hang out with us, coz she’s a Junho-loving fangirl, just like me. 🥰😁

Uyen also writes about dramas on her own blog, which you can visit here.

I hope you guys enjoy!

Today, I’m pleased to announce that j3ffc is sharing his drama year.

Don’t be fooled by j3ffc’s trademark self-deprecating humor, you guys; the more I get to know him, the more I feel that j3ffc’s more imaginative, insightful and wise than he might want you to think.

Plus, he’s thoughtful, kind, and really funny too. Very often I find myself giggling out loud at j3ffc’s witty comments. Thank you j3ffc, for just being you. 🥰

If you missed it, I highly recommend checking out j3ffc’s dream drama post, where he took a real-life incident featured in a news article, and turned it into a kdrama for us, complete with casting picks. 🤩 You can check it out here!

I hope you guys enjoy!

Today, I’m pleased to announce that Sean is sharing his drama year.

The more I get to know Sean, the more amazed I am, at how Sean is a man of many  – many!  – interests and talents.

It’s so cool that dramas is one of his interests, because he applies his wide-ranging interests, and meshes it with his out-of-this-world ability to bend time and space, to all of his drama-watching.

You’ll see that the result is quite astounding, in terms of the number and scope of dramas he’s watched.

Which means that more than likely, he’ll mention a drama (or five) that you might’ve never heard of otherwise. 😁

Sean also writes about management and leadership on his own blog, which you can visit here.

I hope you guys enjoy!
