    I've been lurking on here for a good while, but for some reason never got around to making an account. OTL I follow Vastderp and Seebs on tumblr, and thus followed them over here.

    I'm Henry! I'm 20, AFAB, my gender identity can best be described as [train sound], and I use they pronouns. I'm autistic and have social anxiety, along with a few other brainweird issues. I'm slowly but surely working my way toward a linguistics degree.

    I'm interested in an assortment of seemingly random, unrelated things, like fashion, ancient history, kpop, and space. I was at one point super into Homestuck (I've cosplayed John, Dave and Jake), but it's been over a year since I last read it. (Someday, I will catch up. Maybe.)

    Some of my favorite books are Catcher in the Rye, This Side of Paradise, Invisible Monsters, and Les Miserables. In other words, my taste in literature could probably stand to improve. Hahaha.

    Most of my favorite bands are kpop artists, which I've seen from tumblr people tend not to be interested in, haha. But if you're a kpop fan, hmu, I'll talk your ear off about it.

    Alright, now I feel like I'm talking too much, so I'll cut it off there. It's cool to be here! :)

    Hey, welcome! I'm new too. I took one single linguistics course for my english degree and my brain melted out my ears, so mad respect for pursuing such a challenging education!

    Which artists?

    I am not a superfan per se but I do like the genre a lot.

    Also, welcome!

    Thank you! :)

    I would say my favorite artists are VIXX, Teen Top and Girl's Day. But... I haven't so far managed to find a group I don't like, hahaha.

    Thank you! It really helps that linguistics is one of my special interests, I really don't think I could keep up with the work if it wasn't, haha. OTL

    I like Kpop but I'm far more interested in their television than their music. Although I probably wouldn't be so interested if the music weren't so good...

    K-dramas or variety shows? Korean variety shows are golden, hahaha.

    Dramas, mostly. I do like the variety shows but I am in love with their story-telling.

    Is your title a reference to this? Because I was just watching it earlier, the footwork makes my brain go prrrrrrr.

    I'm Key's sister, BTW. We watch dramas together with our mom because one of her friends corrupted her and once we saw City Hunter there was no going back. I have no idea how to describe my taste in kpop but the one thing I do know is that I really like the choreography in a lot of MVs. So lately I've listened to/watched a lot of Infinite, EXO, BtoB, BTS, Got7.... But my favourite song right now is Akdong Musician's 200%. Or maybe Trouble Maker's Now. Or maybe ... okay I need to stop.

    Anyway, welcome!

    Yeah, it is! I can't stop watching it, the choreo is perfect. BTS is definitely one of the best dance groups, up there with Infinite and SHINee, haha. I have no idea how to describe my taste in kpop either, I pretty much like a little bit of everything. OTL

    I've never actually watched City Hunter, it's been on my list since it aired but I somehow never get around to it. I mostly just watch historical dramas, haha.

    I was going through someone's YouTube playlist and writing down "singer - songname" every time I came across something I really liked. When I got to the first BTS MV I just wrote down "BTS (dance)", haha.

    Are you watching anything these days? I haven't watched a historical drama since ... ummm .... it's been a while. We watched Warrior Baek Dong Soo a while back, I guess? But we just started I Remember You (modern, crime) and so far I like it a lot.

    My friend and I tried to learn the dance for No More Dream by BTS a while back. It didn't end well, haha.

    I'm almost finished with Blood and The King's Face, and I'm going to start Orange Marmalade soon. I didn't know it was about vampires when it started or I would be watching it already, hahaha.

    This is definitely my favorite Bangtan choreography so far. Haha.
