What I've learnt from my overseas friends

"I'll meet you at 10 o'clock":
English friends: I'll meet you +/- 10mins.
Scottish friends: Same as English, except would have found a table and already bought a round of drinks.
German friends: Will meet at exactly 10 o'clock, not late nor early. And also won't tell you if early, as only expected at 10:00.
Greek friends: I'll definitely see you some time today.

Viki app

Viki is an app which allows you to watch tv from around the world. Though I may be incorrect in saying this, I believe most of the shows on the app are of South Korea. The shows subtitled into many different languages and are shown in high quality.

Not only do they show tv series, but also fact files on actors, (lifestyle) news articles and works the actors have been in which are available to watch on Viki.

Half the joy is watching a show with comments written in real-time by other audiences, as at the peak of episodes, their reaction is priceless (eg. The tension before the classic K Drama kiss scenes, watch the comments blow up and blur across the top of the screen).

(Siwon in She Was Pretty is spectacular and worth a watch, btw.)
