K-Drama Fan Meetings! (Post, Discuss, and Arrange)


Our first choice would be Sunday (I would want to bring my mother and sometimes she works on Saturday but is trying to put in a request now to take that Saturday off)

There would be 3 of us and we would be interested in the temple tour.

Re: K-Drama Fan Meetings! (Post, Discuss, and Arrange)


Well, so far it looks like Sunday is the better day for most.

Tankerspark... If there is anything I can do to help, please let me know.

I'm going to GG next weekend (wasn't there a little gift shop in the California Market?) to pick up a couple gifts for prizes. I'm taking my mother so you know we are going to eat at that same little place near the market.... yummy...

Pooka67... Let me know if you need help with the tour thingy too.

EVERYONE: We thought we'd do the Korean Temple tour first (for those who are interested)... It costs, but it's a nominal fee. So I believe we'd most likely be meeting up (or sharing rides, etc.) at the restaurant for dinner. Does anyone have a preference on time? I was thinking maybe around 5ish? We could do the tour around 2ish? Anyone have any other suggestions?

nsheldon, there's also a Morning Glory less than a block away from the California Market if you're interested, also on Garden Grove Blvd. Just stick to the right lane and you shouldn't miss it (I believe it's before the first stop light you see) if you're heading from the direction of the California Supermarket. On the other hand, the Sarangbang Video store that my friend rents the MBC K-drama DVDs w/ e-subs is right in the corner of the business center w/ the California Supermarket (it's right next to the Tofu restaurant)

Would anyone know of a reliable place that creates jigsaw puzzles from a picture? I wonder why this has never caught on here in the US?

Re: K-Drama Fan Meetings! (Post, Discuss, and Arrange)


Good Morning everyone,

It looks like sunday is the winner and the one thing that I forgot to ask is please tell me how meny.

I have called Cham Soot Gol to make sure that they are opened on Sunday. They are. I gave until May 1st to respond so I will wait to call to make the reservation. Sunday is better for them and 2:00pm start time should accomadate. If not let me know because I will finallize the reservation on May 2. They also said 20 to 25 no problem.

For some reason I am not getting the auto response on the thread. So I will keep checking in.


I have gotten some stuff from Theresa and one game is a trivia "name of members" the other trivia is "Drama". On her board there are more games to get. I understand that some people will not want to particapate in the games and thats ok. I want us to have fun together and interact with as meny people as possible.

Please let me know how meny. Although when I talked to the restrurant I said 20 +/- and they said thats ok if more show up.

Looking forward to seeing everyone.

M's

Hi its me again,

Ok what I need to know is the start time for the Cham Soot Gol.

Is the tour late in the morning or early afternoon? Time has not been fix at Cham Soot Gol. The head count is up to 19 so far and Sunday is way ahead (BTW Sunday has all the votes).

Please keep those cards and letters coming.

What's Cham Soot Gol? Is that the restaurant? How does 2 or 3pm meet at the restaurant time sound to everyone?

Pooka, can you check on tour times? Didn't you say it was about 30 min from the temple to the restaurant? Maybe we could do a 10am tour. HOw long do the tours last? If it's about an hour, then we'd need maybe another hour to walk to our cars and drive & part & meet up at the restaurant.

So, SUNDAY May 20th is the date.. We just need to iron out the times yet and get more details on the tour. Also, if Pooka needs to make reservations for the Temple tour we'll need to find a way to get money to her. I think it's a nominal fee though...

I'm going to GG (California Market) on Sat. If anyone needs me to pick up anything for the gathering, please let me know! I'm picking up a couple $5 items to use as gifts for our gathering. Have no clue what there is out there.

Creidesca... Is Morning Glory a gift shop?????

Hello Everyone,

I figured that taking the tour first would be easier for most people then we don't have to rush through lunch and can go early. I have to call back later today to find out how long the tour is and how the schedule is for the 20th.

Also to clarify a few things, the temple isn't a Korean temple it is just beautiful Chinese temple. Here is a little explaination about it:

We at Hsi Lai are committed to serving as a bridge between East and West so that the Buddha's teachings of kindness, compassion, joyfulness, and equanimity might be integrated into our lives and of those around us to the benefit of all and that we might learn the ways to cultivate the wisdom to clearly understand the true nature of all things

Here is the website link: http://www.hsilai.org/english/index.htm

Here is the virtual tour link: http://www.hsilai.org/VirtualTour/virtualmap.html

The tour info from their website:

Group Tour:
 Guided tours are available for groups of about 15 or more.
 Hour: Tour - 10:00 a.m. to 3:30 p.m.
           Dining Hall - 11:30 a.m. to 1:30 p.m.
 
Please show respect to the Temple and dress appropriately: no tank tops, shorts or mini skirts. 
Smoking is prohibited on premises. 
Please DO NOT brings meat of any kind, food or beverages into the temple
Donation of $2.00 per person for Tour of Temple & Visit to Museum

They also have a gift shop and a tea room.


As I find out more I will let you all know. I have had a few people check in and say they are interested it looks like a nice side trip.

It's similar to a 'stationary' Sanrio? Here's its main site for locations in the USA : http://www.mg-usa.com/

Ah...I've actually been to Hsi Lai Temple as a child, I remember it as being very beautiful (and I can still remember the long long walk up there too)

Creidesca... Thanks for the info... I hope the walk isn't as long as it was when you were a child (LOL)... You know how everything is bigger, longer, wider, etc., when your a child.... emoticon
