  1. Asian is such an all-encompassing term (because Asia is such an all-encompassing landmass) that it becomes useless in most contexts.

     

    In the business and academic world, they use the CJK acronym to target East Asia. That market is completely different from South and West Asia. You can see it here at OH in entertainment. There are Koreans in Chinese cinema and dramas, Chinese in Korean pop music and Japanese in Korean movies. But you don’t see South, West or even SE Asians (with Thais being exceptions) in CJK-ent. Just as you don’t see Koreans or japanese in Bollywood.

  2. In the US, when you say Asian people assume Chinese/Japanese/Korean. In the UK Asian means Indian/Pakistani/Bangladeshi.

     

    It is historic, American history in Asia involved wars with China, Japan and Korea and most of the early asian immigrants were from East Asia. The UK colonized India and nearly all their Asian immigrants were from their former South Asian colonies.

  3. Reality show

    SNH48 7SENSES - Lucky Seven Baby - S3 EP2

     

     

    Wow! Soribada trip. I fucking love the look of Tako. She is so damn gorgeous with her long limbs and small face. Lynn changed too. She no longer has her baby fat. Beautiful with the shoulderless top!

  4. Yeah I watched WJSN's variety when they were in Shanghai, and I knew some of her seaweed memes lol:lol:

     

    As for the brain farting, I don't know the context of this word. Would you mind explaining for me? What she originally said was 脑袋短路, literally translated as "short circuit in brain", or translated according to meaning "brain doesn't work all of a sudden". maybe you can think of a better word?

     

    What's shinanigans? Saw this word couple of times and looked it up couple of times, but still couldn't get it.:imstupid:

     

    As for Sunnee, she always said although she looks like a tomboy, but internally she behaves like a little girl. Her Chinese name is Yang Yun Qing, that er stuff is only a Chinese suffix indicating something/somebody is young and cute. That's why she called herself Qing'er Little Sister. She called herself like this several times in the variety.

    Brain fart actually means “brain stops working all of sudden†so it is equivalent in meaning. It is a colloquial term or a street slang though. Fart means passing gas. lol

     

    Shenanigans are wild or naughty acts that people do. Fujing seems to like doing crazy stuff with Chaoyue like wrestling or carrying each other.

  5. Mengjie Vivi magazine photoshoot

     

    4. Use one word to describe each member on your team?

     

    Yamy: Cool girl that loves acting cute. Meiqi: Big bro but internally a baby. Xuanyi: Rich Milk Tea Princess. Chaoyue: Pretty girls that's sorta straight guy-y. Aojuan: small vocal powerhouse. Meiyun: chatty cutie. Zining: Arthouse girl that loves playing the guitar. Sunnee: Fragile Qing'er little sister. Ziting: a graceful girl of noble birth, angelic voice. Fu Jing: Female killer that can brain fart sometimes.

     

     

    Thanks for translating the interview! Mengjie really blossomed into a beauty I didn’t notice during the show.

     

    I really love her answers about about the other members. They give us insight into each one of them. They kind of fit in with what I imagine of their personalities.

     

    Xuanyi was the Rich Seaweed Queen in Korea. She was famous among Ujungs (WJSN fans) for eating dried seaweed and being wealthy — like treating members of the Cosmic girls to an expensive restaurant in Shanghai during MCountdown in 2016.

     

    Zining looks like an arthouse girl to me too. Ziting looks and acts noble to me too. Must come from a wealthy Thai family like Sorn. Fujing is that beautiful female assassin from Hong Kong movies. But the brain farting part is funny? Too much shenanigans with Chaoyue?

     

    But what is this fragile quinger little sister thing with Sunnee?
