I kinda regretted taking off to run a half-hour into this "I Love Beijing" film on AZN, about this cab driver that went from one surprisingly attractive girl to another amidst the squalor of the city, which is probably why I've sat the rest of the day in front of the digital cable. (The exception was a trip to Fry's to get a Samurai Champloo DVD after the Adult Swim on Demand teased me with only the first of the three-part finale. Happy ending for the heroes felt a little forced after Cowboy Bebop, no?) And now I'm suffering through a Winter Sonata (겨울연가) marathon still trying to understand the dynamics of the Korean drama wave. Or all the appeal of 배용준, who reminds me of James Spader in Stargate. This is maybe the third of fourth series whose story I've followed, and it's the third or fourth where a main character is hit by a car—I guess when shows go on this long, it's just bound to happen?
