I’m just vibing that adulting is hard even when one has breaks and the doctor … Continue reading →
So this looks a lot better from the preview than the posters and stills promos thus far.

There was the biggest star walk on Friday night at the 2023 Baeksang Awards but the next day a large contingent also paraded through for the Louis Vuitton fashion show in Seoul.
