We're on the day that they went to the market to buy raclette cheese. Now, they gotta make dinner with that cheese!
In her interview, Jiwon still can't pronounce raclette.
She can't find the cheese....

Ep 3
We start with the sisters back in Seoul in their house. It's been exactly 2 weeks since they returned from Grasse. She brought back the cardboard cutouts of Zoe the donkey and Nita the llama from the press conference hahaha.

Ha Ji Won's Go Go With Unnie - Ep 2
Ep 2
We rewind to when Jiwon was preparing her fail dinner.
There's this sequence of Jiwon staring at stuff in the kitchen looking confused, preparing coffee, washing dishes, keeping dishes and looking confused again, then washing more dishes before she finally starts working on her kimchi pancake.
I love the question marks that the editor puts haha. She's so adorable when confused.

Ha Ji Won's Go Go With Unnie - Ep 1
Recently, Empress Ki started airing in my country on the public broadcast channel so it reinvigorated my HJW love. But since I've already rewatched Empress Ki like 50 times, I decided to watch her reality travel show to Grasse, France that she filmed in April earlier this year.
She's so so cute in it but unfortunately not many people watched it because of the lack of subs. I'm downloading the torrents and watching them raw. I don't understand Korean fully so I can't sub (and I got no time anyway :/) but I understand enough to get most of the jokes and so I decided to do mini recaps for the episodes. Mostly about the scenes I found particularly funny. It's really quite entertaining, especially if you're a HJW fan because she's ridiculously adorable.
One thing I find annoying is that the editing is done such that the events aren't in chronological order, so random parts of different days of their trips get mashed into 1 ep. (You can tell since their clothes changed.) So it's abit confusing.

Ha Ji Won's interview in iWeekly (English)
I translated Ha Ji Won's interview in iWeekly from Mandarin to English because it was so interesting! The first part is the journalist's introduction. Enjoy~
She is ever-changing. No matter whether incarnating as an evil lady, action female or empress, it is always convincing.
I like the her in the show who is unyielding, strong, and never bows her head.
In real life, she happens to possess similar qualities.
"I have experienced countless failures. Before debuting, I failed more than 100 auditions. When filming, I experienced many setbacks. But without these failures, I would not have achieved any success."
Success, is never accidental. Behind it is always painstaking hard work.
Last year, while promoting in the little red dot (Singapore), she went to the extent of preparing 5 outfits, changing clothes quickly during the short breaks between the marathon interviews. The reason? Only to maintain the freshness for the local media.
We have never met, but this is already the second time we have done an e-mail interview.
She remains the same as that in my impression - seriously answering with long answers. A big Korean star like her does not need to but chooses to. It is impossible to be unable to feel the brimming sincerity.

July 2015 - Austria & Czech Republic (Part 3) - Cesky Krumlov + Prague
I'm back with the last recap of my trip! Gosh I took so long to write this because school's been crazyyyyy. Finally got some time now as holidays are approaching which also means I can finally watch my dramas! My progress has been horrendous!
Day 7 - 21Jul2015
Headed to another country today!
We woke up early to check out and left the hotel at 815. Made our way to the meeting point which was really near our hotel, and had some pastry for breakfast while waiting for the shuttle van that we booked to come.
We booked under Bean Shuttle for 800CZK per person. We shared the van with 2 other couples cos the van can fit 8 passengers. The service is really good - the driver was really friendly and we were given bottles of water, which is pretty useful for holidays. And the driver drove really really quickly so we only took 2.5h to reach Cesky Krumlov! Also, I never knew that you didn't have to go through customs going from one EU country to another. I was so fascinated haha.

July 2015 - Austria & Czech Republic (Part 2) - Salzburg
School has started and I'm so busy!! That's why I took more than a month to post this. And this is already the term with the least work.
Anyway, continuing with my trip recap.
Day 4 - 18Jul2015
We checked out at 820am and headed to Schwedensplatz to take the subway to Westbahnof station. We managed to get some breakfast while waiting for the Westbahn train to arrive. There are 2 trains to get you from Vienna to Salzburg - OBB or Westbahn. Research online showed that many people recommended Westbahn so that's what we went with. Caught the 938 train that was packed with people because you can buy your tickets on board so the number of passengers is not regulated. The 2.5h journey was pretty enjoyable because Austria has such awesome scenery!
