I've got a sore throat and sniffles, boo. It rained pretty much nonstop for a few days so it's the weather's impact. On the upside, the sun finally showed up today, so I was able to do laundry, I have plenty of warm drinks to brew. I don't feel upto following storylines, so I'm watching random YouTube videos and a good chunk of Korean variety shows instead.

Alok V. Menon's comedy special is on YouTube and it's excellent:


I've also been watching a bunch of CIX content, which is perfect for a sick day watch, whether the sickness is physical or mental or both.

Here's a series in which a fan's parent meets their child's idol. In this episode it was CIX's Hyunsuk meeting his fan's mother. His fan loves his cover dance of EXO's The Eve, and it was funny to see Hyunsuk and the fan's mother have a mutual breakdown: Hyunsuk too embarrassed to dance to The Eve given the quantity and ubiquity of body waves, and the fan's mother being too embarrassed to watch him attempt it.


And here's a vlog by a FIX, that is, a CIX fan, attending their recent concert with her fellow fan friends. She's clearly Hyunsuk biased and I'm hoping I can find similar fan vlogs by someone who is Yonghee biased (Yonghee, I adore you!). I envy her having IRL friends to fangirl over CIX with, and IRL means to see CIX live! I've set the video to start at 5:09 which is when Yonghee and Hyunsuk are demonstrating the choreo for their duet performance, the one that made me ship the hell out of them and fangirl over them, for the other two members, Seunghun and BX, to try. It's my favourite bit :) I enjoyed this vlog, although it made me wistful, like everything does these days.


My plans for the rest of Sunday include watching more CIX and k-variety content, drinking warm drinks, and napping.
