Good, non-sopilery article about the show: [link]
I'm a vision of hotliness, and how weird is that? Mystical comas. You know, if you can stand the horror of a higher power hijacking your mind and body so that it can give birth to itself, I really recommend 'em.

Huh. Standard buffistas@hotmail is a valid login, but they want a six character password, and the standard "foamy" comes up short.
I've requested the info in Bureaucracy.

Bag the crypto. Say what is on your mind.
The translation rocked, meagan. Thanks for the effort.
My Korean goilfriend has been giving me Jun translations, indicating that he is not on to Sun's English, just yet. BTW, she (the goilfriend) says that Jin has an American accent, and that Sun sounds 'urban', or possibly, 'urbane'. Her apparent class is higher than his, at any rate. Which fits, I'm thinking.

Kiss me, my girl, before I'm sick.
t sheds a tear at the thought of Gus with another Korean goilfriend
Yeah, Jin doesn't know about Sun speaking English. The translation on that scene was something like, "WHAT ARE YOU DOING WITH HIM?", like, totally with the ASSCAPS and way ruder. It was more like "WHAT ARE YOU DOING WITH THAT RAT BASTARD?", actually.
Jin has an American accent
Well, that's because Daniel Dae Kim grew up in United States and his Korean is bad from lack of practice--it's an actor thing, not a character thing. To my ear, his American-accented Korean also has a twinge of regional accent from the Southeast provinces of Korean, which I chalk up to the fact that his parents are from Pusan and probably had wee bit of regional accent from the area. However, unlike the rigid association between accent and class in, say, Britain, the class distinction according to accents isn't as big a deal in South Korea. The actress who plays Sun has the standard accent of someone born and raised in Seoul (although I understand she spent her adolescence in NY.)

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."
That's awesome! Jin is all jealous! And he doesn't even know Michael totally saw her in the buff. Right?

Also? How do Other People watch tv without the invisible people in the box to make them privvy to all kinds of sooper sekrit information? I heart the Buffista Official Translation Engine.

Ran this past the goilfriend, and she was in agreement. She is out of Pusan, too. "Out of" meaning her parents live there, now, and she was raised there. She has a 'class' association with the Seoul accent. It might be personal problem, but my thinking is that she (the goifreind) is well-educated, even exceptionally, educated, however much I may want to snuggle with VonnieK.

Wheeee! Do I get a pin? A benefit package?
And he doesn't even know Michael totally saw her in the buff. Right?
Nope. At least he hasn't said or done anything to suggest it (like, stabbing Michael in the heart with one of Locke's knives, for example.)
