Korean Proverb: 시작이 반이다
Pronunciation: Shi-jaki bani-da
Literal meaning: Starting is half the task
I enjoy blogging tremendously, and the above proverb pretty much sums it up; starting really is half the task. If you never start, likewise, you will never finish – or you may just never know what might have been. When I started this blog, I was hoping to connect with people with similar interests, but wasn’t sure if there would be a draw. I went for it anyway, and I’m so glad I did!
I am extremely honored to have been nominated for a Lovely Blog Award, and I am blessed to be able to share my love for all things hallyu with people from all around the world. A special thanks to WordPress for everything they offer to bloggers, and an even bigger thanks to my amazing viewing audience!

Congratulations on your blog award! I am a big fan of your blog as I get to learn a lot about K-drama, K-film and K-movie!
Also thank you for the nomination, and I really appreciate it but unfortunately I can’t accept it. I have decided some time ago not to accept any Awards. I wrote a post about why no: http://dosirakbento.wordpress.com/2014/08/18/an-almost-daily-dosirakbento-and-thoughts-on-blogging/

First of all, congratulations for your award – it is well deserved.
Thank you very much for the nominating my blog. I am truly honored that you would have me on your list of favorite blogs. I had earlier decided not to pursue any awards about the time I received a previous nomination several weeks ago. I have instead been looking out for new blogs to follow and to share those on my site. This is still a work in progress. Thank you again, I am humbled that you have done this for me and greatly appreciate it.
Hello and thank you for your congrats; I appreciate it!
I enjoy your blog very much, which made it easy to name yours as one of my favorites. I look forward to reading more from you, as well as seeing your beautiful pictures.
All the best,
