Do you have any questions or requests for Blue or Bella? Whether you’re curious about an aspect of a Korean culture or history that you observed in a drama, have questions about the Korean language, have a translation request that you’re dying to find out (but please, no request to sub an entire show, unless that show is *ahem* titled Sungkyunkwan Scandal – applies to Blue only), or have a request that we dedicate a post to any particular subject, please ask away! The only restriction is that your questions or requests must in some way or form be connected to the Korean entertainment culture/industry (dramas, movies, music, celebrities, etc), but this connection is loosely defined. We’ll try to answer them as best as we can!

Dear Belectric Ground,
We are GURUPOP, the one and only K-pop community for the international fans to meet and interact with the K-pop stars. We have launched our site on March, 2012 and have been rapidly growing since then. As of October, 2012, we have more than 400,000 visitors per month on our community.
We have been focusing on the services that enable the interaction between the fans and the stars. We have wide network of K-pop stars to collaborate with and have been providing interactive services such as Fan Post Contests, Star Q&As and most importantly The GURUPOP Show. Since August, we have provided the online live streaming show in English with real-time interpretation for our international fans. We currently have one more episode left to finish our total 12 episodes.
Before we get into our next show, we found the GURUPOP Show Special; crowd funding a channel to get all K-POP global fans involved in our next show as if you were part of our production team. We would like all K-POP Global fans to gather and be part of our deep passion of making a strong connection between the international fans and the K-pop stars over the geographical barrier.
Regarding our last episode of the GURUPOP Show Season 1 and ‘The GURUPOP Show Special’; crowd funding, we have made an news article for you to consider as recent news. Many thanks for the opportunity to discuss this proposal with you. We hope you deeply consider our proposal. Thank you for your reading.
All the best,
GURUPOP

Hi,
I just finished watching Air City on Drama Crazy and loved it. I thought it was a well-written show with reality re: behind the scenes action at an airport along with adventure, humor, romance and information. There were a couple of main plots and related sub plots that kept the show moving along. The actors were good, too: Choi Ji-Woo, Lee Jin Woo, Lee Jang Jee, No Tae Man and several others. After finishing the final episode, I researched Air City online hoping to find a sequel. Wow, I found out it was made in 2007! That the ratings were not favorable and there doesn’t seem to be a sequel anywhere! So, do you know anything about this show? How would I contact the writer and director to let them know how much I enjoyed the show and to beg and plead for a sequel? The reviews on Drama Crazy are favorable! Any help, will be appreciated!
Thanks, Mac

Honestly, I did not like Air City at all, and as you said, the drama did not fare well in ratings either. Drama sequels are pretty rare in Korea, and even more so for “failed” shows. But if you wish to show your appreciation for the staff, I imagine the best option (besides actually acquiring the personal email of the writer/director to send a letter to) is to comment on the fanboard of the drama’s official homepage. Must warn you that it’s probably very unlikely that a drama staff would actually read the comments for such an old drama though!

Thanks so much for your help. I will try to contact someone to let them know! Yep, it sounds like a longshot to ask for a sequel. When I think of movies that are redone 5, 10 even 20 or more years later, somehow, I think it is worth a shot.
