wine and a kdrama

because dramas and wine go well together

I like Korean dramas. Sometimes I watch them while drinking wine

music monday: highlights

January 20, 2020 by Jessie in music

Today’s Music Monday is focusing on some random highlights from the past weekish. There’s been quite a bit happening for some of my favorites, so I thought I would talk a little bit about those.

Flavor Profile: NELL

January 13, 2020 by Jessie in music, spotlight

I had every intention after doing the Flavor Profile on Dreamcatcher last year to continue this as a regular series, but alas that was not in the cards. However, I am forcing it into the cards this year. This month I’m focusing on an indie/alt rock band out of Korea, NELL.

January 06, 2020 by Jessie in music, playlist

Instead of doing my normal list of music videos, I thought that each month I would make a good old fashioned mixtape.

music monday: 2019

December 30, 2019 by Jessie in music

Welcome to my top music of 2019 post! This year was spent more focused on music than dramas, and figured that a dedicated post of my favorites in music of the year was warranted. I listened to a lot of music, as I tried to keep up with a lot more of the comebacks (mainly because of the podcast) more than I normally do, but was also rekindled with some of my old favorites and found some really great new music and artists in the process.

friday roundup: 12.27.19

December 27, 2019 by Jessie in weekly roundup, news, music

Happy holidays! This is my last roundup of the year. Even though these Friday ones are new, it feels weird to know I’ve been doing some type of these posts for the longest on my blog.

music monday: the christmas playlist edition

December 23, 2019 by Jessie in music, playlist

Here is my last-minute gift to you: a playlist I made of a few of my favorite Christmas-like songs and stages from some of my top kpop artists.

I tried to keep the list to songs that are more holiday themed songs as opposed to just winter themed. This is by no means the most complete list. Trust me when I say there are a LOT of really great and wonderful cheesy stages out there. Please spend some time in the black hole that is YouTube to find yourself some gems (it’s a great way to hide from your family for a while).

Enjoy!

It’s not much but it’s the thought that counts, right? :)

friday roundup: 12.20.19

December 20, 2019 by Jessie in weekly roundup, news, music

I’m trying something new and rearranging my schedule to find a better posting schedule. I want my weekends to be when I’m able to work on posts (and the podcast) and right now doing Weekly Roundups doesn’t help that. I’ve also gotten tired of just doing news stuff. I’m also going to be entering my busiest time of the season in the next couple of months, so hopefully I can get into a better rhythm of posting before that happens. I know this blog is a mess of excuses, but I really do want to continue posting more, I just have to figure out how to do that with my schedule and still do other things (like maybe finally get to watch dramas and read books?). These updates will be more of a general what I find interesting around the web: news, castings, random videos I watched that YouTube suggested, what I’ve been watching and what I’ve been listening to. Kind of a scaled-down version of the weekly roundup that’s more personal and not every piece of news that I could find.

album review: eric nam + iu

November 25, 2019 by Jessie in music, album reviews

Two albums came out in the past couple of weeks that I thought deserved some more light, so I’m stepping out of my writing comfort zone for today’s Music Monday and doing some album reviews. It’s not something I’ve ever done, so bear with me if they aren’t the greatest.

music mondays: 11.11.19

November 11, 2019 by Jessie in music

I wanted to catch up on some of the music that I missed that last couple of weeks cause of all the mess. I’ve been listening to things, but my life has been really taken up by DAY6 videos. However, I won’t make you watch all my favorite DAY6 videos (just yet), so here’s some of the MVs I really think you should try out.

top halloween music videos

October 28, 2019 by Jessie in music, playlist

In honor of Halloween I decided a list of my favorite spooky-esque music videos was in order. I love Halloween, and a lot of my music skews darker so this was an easy list for me.
