It’s not like the support departments where you can just keep shuffling paper as long as the

K-drama Review: The East Palace
Intriguing enough premise but the plotting is a little clumsy. But still, solid performances and excellent production. In any case, it’s short so it is over quickly.

Woman Who Keeps Her Head Bowed is Praised as Ideal Churchgoer
Melbourne, Australia – A middle-aged Asian woman at St Eutychus Lutheran Church has been hailed as the ideal churchgoer.

This Asian auntie, however, attends every Sunday and is seen with her head bowed throughout the entire service. Unlike the young man, it is clear she is not asleep. “She is an example of piety, she seems to be meditating on my one-hour sermons,” said the pastor. “If
