I’ll be guest blogging at MTV Iggy, MTV’s new branch for global (mostly Asian) pop culture and infotainment for the next few weeks.
This blog will be updated as usual; some of the stories here will be cross-posted at Iggy, and I’ll write a few extra stuff for the folks there during my stint.
Hope that the short project will benefit both parties and Asian pop culture fans; check out my updates at Iggy.
[Malaysian social political article; meant primarily for Malaysian readers]
I’m closing the Malaysian social political (SP) section; I’ve not been updating these issues for half a year, might as well officially end my SP journey instead.
I started blogging about Malaysian SP issues in late 2005; the blogging environment and SP development in the country were obviously different back then. After years of debating on various issues, I guess I’m getting a bit tired.
SP is a subjective matter; I must have written a few stuff that offended some people unfortunately. I’m not going to say sorry for most cases which were subjected to different personal opinions, but I’m apologetic if my wrong choice of words have hurt some personal feelings.
Most of the SP articles are deleted; as some are no longer relevant, while some a bit too sensitive. To be frank I don’t want to have the slightest concern that the authorities will knock my door someday for what I’ve blogged years ago.
The remainder of the articles are merged with my main personal and lifestyle blog, hiding within the maze of stories with lighter focuses. If you are interested to dig up the old SP posts somehow, kindly follow the Malaysian social politics tag.
Thanks for all those who have been following my original Malaysian social political blog, friends or foes. And thanks for generously sharing your thoughts. BYE.
Folks at Koreasparkle is running a Korean blog awards in which our pop channel is nominated as Best Blog about Korean Pop Culture.
To be frank, I’m not keen in websites’ awards… so I’m not going to bore you with the poll, especially if you are not familiar with the nominees.
The nominee list provides some good links though, with bunches of Korean related blogs in various topics… might find a few interesting ones if you are keen in Korean stuff.
Thanks for the nomination, although I still find it a bit odd considering the fact that this blog is not dedicated entirely to Korean matters.
Happy Chinese New Year, Happy Seollal (Korean) and Happy New Year to everyone who celebrates the Lunar New Year. For others, well… best wishes to you too :)
Sharing an old CNY song by Sam Hui, “God of Wealth has Arrived” (財神到)…
A bit early for the wishes I supposed… but this is likely to my last post in 2008.
Yupe, going to take a really long break. Want to settle some unfinished business, i.e. house cleaning, bills clearing etc… would also like to spend some time to reflect on what I did in 2008 and planning on what to do in 2009. It should be a wise idea to stay away from blogging for a while to focus on the needy stuff.
Thanks to all of you who have been following this blog throughout the year; the time spent on maintaining the blog wouldn’t be as enjoyable without your support.
Enjoy the rest of 2008, see you all again in 2009!!! Ciao [Image from Muryeo]
Just a short notice that I’ll be moving this website to another webhost at around 0300 GMT on September 25.
The website might be temporarily down for a short period during the migration. If I am doing everything right the site should be back to normal in less than an hour… but if I make a mistake or two, it might take 24-48 hours.
The comment section will be temporarily closed when I started the migration to avoid any new comments from being deleted during the period.
Update – server migration is completed; everything should be working as normal. Doing some double check at the moment… regular updates will resume shortly.
Hallyuwood.com is running a contest in celebration of Chuseok holiday; the prize… a Korean pop star Lee Hyori’s style-book (five to be won).
Not sure how nice the book is, but it’s something that is not easy to grab hold of if you are not from Korea. It’s a chance not to be missed for Hyori and K-pop fans.
Just head over, follow the instructions and stand a chance to win the prize. The contest expires on the last day of Chuseok, which should mean by the end of Monday (Sept 15); the clock is ticking… hurry up :p
Hi, welcome to the new version of YeinJee.com.
Most of you are readers from other sections of this website, especially from the Asianpop and Discovery blogs. I have written the reasons for the overhaul at those respective sections, and will redirect the main pages to here soon.
Besides the change of URLs, the major addition for this new version is that I have decided to open the comment option for better communication with the readers, as well as discussion among visitors.
Also welcoming readers from YummyCelebrities.com which I have decided to merge with this site. YummyCelebrities is an Asian entertainment blog that I have maintained since 2005, but it’s not logical for me to continue running it as I will be sharing similar info here as well.
It’s a new beginning here, thanks for all who have been following my blogs all this while… some of you have been reading my stuff since 2005, many thanks for that.
As for the relatively new regulars and new readers, welcome to YeinJee.com.
Have a nice day.
