To Our English-Speaking Readers
May 3, 2007 Author: FMS | Filed under: UncategorizedA few of you have written in asking to keep the English going, even in the Korean posts. As you might have guessed, we’re getting a lot more Korean visitors and are aiming at casting a wider net for readers, which means more Korean, since this content is actually going to be found most interesting by…drum roll, please…Koreans!
But we’ve been thinking about different ways to keep the English content going, without putting off possible finicky Korean readers. What do you think is the best way to do it? Bilingual posts? Translations in the comments? We were also thinking of splitting posts and putting the English in the posts after the “Click here to continue…” link.
What do our writers think? Readers? Please chime in.

- cjlatina: Can’t wait to read your post.
- “Apkujeong by Night” (5)
- cjlatina: Why do these pics make me feel like I am drunk? hehehhe I actually like the first one because you really can’t tell that it’s a man on a motorcycle, right? But it also looks like a dragon breathing...
- 수경: i like the first picture a lot.. really nice texture to it.. ^^
- FMS: Actually, I wish I had another image that was mostly blue in its palette, but I couldn’t find anything. If and when we publish a book, I’ll complete it: red, cream, and blue!
- Bekah: I like these pictures, it shows movement, all the blurred lines. Looks lively.
- Tiffany Robinson: the first picture is really cool. I like pictures like this, lets the imagination run. =)
- Actress Choi Jin-Sil Dies at the Age of 39 (4)
- cjlatina: She was really beautiful. I hear that she was well respected in the Korean entertainment industry. It’s sad that we are losing so many talented people to suicide. Also news of her death was reported on ABC...
- lovelyprincess: It is very sad. I guess this just goes to show that people who seem to have it all, can actually be not so happy. It’s usually people who you wouldn’t think would do something like this, who...

- cjlatina: So the people just wait there until…..? a. they cool off and head back in to the club? b. they decide to head home? c. they catch their prey and go off (pun intended) with their one night stand? heheheheh...
- blue: I had to look again at the picture. Sometimes, I think these are the back alleys of New York or Atlanta. Her shoes are nice.
- sf: ehhe….the sly subtlety of the picture is what makes it fun to look at. Killer abs but the shoes ruin the overall effect I’m afraid
- FMS: Come on guys — it’s not really a fashion photo as much as a street life shot…I like the moment. For me, it’s more about the guy’s stare and the sly look while smoking the cig…
- Dre: Agreed. Not worthy of a second glance except to remark how unappealing the whole get-up is.
- cjlatina: I was wondering do guys in Korea have to worry about picking up a girl that may or may not be one? About the fashion…..I am not feeling that girl’s outfit and I really don’t like those shoes.
- 수경: i went clubbing once in HongDae.. but i didn’t get to see this though.. i think i went to some youngsters (like real young teenagers) club
- Yina: Agreed, those shoes are just plain ugly. Eek! She looks good from the thighs up though.
- ridonkulus: nice abs, hate the sneaker stiletto, but it is clubbing… that guy smoking a cigarette was real subtle.

- lovelyprincess: We all have opinions, but I was just laughing about this with a coworker a few weeks ago when the subject of “I Love NY” t-shirts came up. She agrees with me. How do you know you love NY if you...
- FMS: OK…I’d say the “I Love NY” t-shirt is probably one of the most famous ones (and most famous lines) ever made, having gone there or not. If I have a t-shirt that says “I love pandas”...
- lovelyprincess: Most of these fashions are nice, but I have to wonder about people wearing “I love NY” t-shirts. They probably haven’t even gone to NY. I have an “I Love Singapore” t-shirt....

Personally, in this kind of blog system, it is almost impossible to separate the contents.
I think making the menues more easy to see has to come first.
Like the form of Daum Cafe, or Cyworld club.
Big categories are shown really easy and neat.
then we can separate the contents…
Sorry about writting it so unclearly,
but that’s just what I think.
Thanx!
We’re going to fix our Categories menu so it separates categories and subcategories properly, and use it as an index. And we’re going to change up the overall design and layout soon…
I am most grateful that a Korean blog has any English posted on it, so whatever you can do to keep English on some or all of your posts would make me very happy! Thanks for this great blog!
