Hey, There!
I’m Debi.

Hi friends.  I’m Debi. I’ve been a stay at home mom for the last 20 years.  This year my two kids are both in college, so I decided it was time to start a new adventure.  I thought it might be fun to use my Liberal Arts degree for something other than homeschooling.  While looking through my Pinterest board, I stumbled on the idea of starting a blog.  At first, I wasn’t sure what I would blog about.  I could talk about my years as a parent and teacher or what kinds of foods I cook for my family, but those ideas didn’t grab my interest.  I spent the night thinking about what things I’m really passionate about and suddenly the answer became obvious.  I LOVE Korean dramas!

 

I joined the kdrama craze kind of late.  My husband and I lived in Japan for six and a half years, so I’m no stranger to watching tv in other languages.  One day, in the spring of 2016, I was combing through Hulu looking for something to watch.  A small selection of kdramas came on up on my recommended page.   I had heard people talking about how Korean television was a lot of fun.  I decided to give it a shot and see what all the fuss was about.  I chose Oh My Venus and dove right in.  And I’ve never looked back!  I love watching kdramas and I love talking about kdramas.  My family thinks I’m a little crazy, although I have convinced my husband to sit through a few with me.  A blog seems like the perfect excuse to talk all I want about all things kdrama and hopefully meet a few online friends along the way, who like dramas as much as I do.

 

 

I don’t know what my favorite genre of kdrama would be.  Every time I think, for sure I’m a light-hearted rom-com kind of gal, I watch a melodrama that tugs at my heart and leaves a lasting impression.  And while I don’t always want to take the time to watch a 50+ episode family drama, sometimes I really like to settle in for some extended character development.  The truth is, I like them all in rotation.  Too much light and fluffy starts to make my brain feel atrophied after a while, and too many serious stories start to make me feel emotionally heavy.  Is that weird?  Maybe it is, but I like to think it just makes me well-rounded.  I also have a strong sense of perseverance, which means I never give up on a drama.  Even if I don’t love it, I just keep hoping it will get better.  Sure, it doesn’t always work out that way, but at least I gave it a try, right?
