Devil Bride and Jackie Street Fighter

Well, as a last attempt to improve a little my Japanese for the Japanese Proficiency Test I decided to watch some J-Drama without subtitles. Not that I have much hope for that test, but at least it's a "fun" way to practice...

Well, last week I talked to Silvia about Japanese series, dramas, etc., and the name "Oniyome Nikki" (鬼嫁日記) appeared. It's a J-Drama that I've mentioned here some time ago and I watched sometimes when I was in Japan. It's funny, but has some serious moments... And it's a little unusual considering what some people think about Japanese society (about women's role in it). I won't enter that discussion... at least not today.

Anyway, as I was watching, my mother's arrived and I decided to show her. She also liked it, but a comment she said just floored me...

"You shouldn't marry an 'oniyome'... you're also too kind..."

........ WTF!?


Changing the subject, what happens when you mix Jackie Chan and Street Fighter?

This... LOL
