The #kpop song playing in my head this morning was “Butterflies” by Hearts2Hearts. It’s a very calm, sweet song. The video shows the lyrics in English.

Just watched “Yoona’s Quiet Table” late May 2026 and I was really curious if it was Im Yoona or someone else. I know she’s 36 and everyone’s face changes with age, but I kind of didn’t recognize her. It was her channel. Trying to understand.

Ok, went on instagram. Here’s what I think I’m seeing. When she smiles, her nose flares out just a little. In this video she is concentrating and is not “on” and it narrows her nose, giving her a different look.
Just finished binging the #kdrama “The Prime Minister and I” on Viki. Started it because Yoona plays the female lead. Binged it because the story sucked me in.
Just watched an early showing of the movie “Disclosure Day” by Steven Spielberg. I have no words to describe how good it is. You really want to see it before people tell you about it, and they will talk about it.
As I’m settling down to sleep, my brain is playing the “Wild Wild West” TV show theme song. In case you grew up watching “Jim & Artemis” and the Steam Punk contraptions, here it is.

OK, this might be a controversial frivolous opinion. I think Girls Generation Yoona (actor and #kpop idol) has very pleasant face, but I wouldn’t characterize her as a beauty. She seems like a genuinely nice person.
Been measuring CO2 levels inside our home. Bedroom can get up to 1800ppm while we sleep. I’ll open an upstairs window and kitchen window to get airflow that goes past our bedroom door. Within minutes bedroom goes down to 500ppm. Surprised it mixes quickly.
This morning woke up with my brain playing #kpop “Dirty Work” by aespa. It’s funny that when I’ve listened to it in the past I did not recognize all the English words. With subtitles, now I can hear all the English words.

Am waiting for the last episodes of #kdrama “My Royal Nemesis” to drop. @susan16park recommended it and like a fool I didn’t check to see all episodes were released before starting to watch it. Aaaaarrrggg.
Just got this:
“A message from California Secretary of State on behalf of Sonoma County Registrar of Voters. Your ballot for the June 2, 2026, Primary Election was received and counted. Thank you for voting!”
Programmers in non-English speaking countries:
Do you end up with rudimentary English language skills from reading code? Or do you need some base level English just to get started? And, how’s that feel?
This morning wasn’t #kpop playing in my head, it was “California Girls” by The Beach Boys. The instrumental intro is superb and I wish more KPop groups did harmony like this. Anyway, enjoy!
