Review: Sweet Sweet Bodyguard 剩女保镖

Brief Synopsis (of main plot)
Zhen Ai Jia (Summer Meng- why does dramawiki list her as teresa meng?) was raised military style and was trained to be a bodyguard by her dad, but all she wants to do is to be a "normal girl". So, she signs a contract with her dad that after this last client, she will retire and get married. But, of course, the client He Zhong Qi (Alien Huang) is arrogant, full of rules, and full of insults. Ai Jia wants to do many things to him, but protecting is not one.


My Thoughts
This 82 eps drama took me way Way WAY too long to watch. Different parts made me love/hate the drama in different ways...so spoiler alert!

Exo Fans' Cheering Cuts Off Zhang Han

I saw this article online today and I really wanted to translate it. I tried to translate word-for-word, but of course, that doesn't work out too well all the time.

Translation
At the recording of the AnHui TV show "亚洲偶像欢乐七夕夜", the popularity of Korean boyband EXO was very high. Thousands of fans screamed and cheered as soon as they arrived onstage, but the nonstopping screams drowned out the host and other guests speaking. In the end, many parts of the show are in danger of being cut out, including Yang Mi's opening performance, Zhang Han and Zheng Shuang being awarded, and parts of Exo's performance.

 EXO's fangirls raised the price of tickets from 100 RMB to 2000 RMB and the ones who could get in brought everything, including binoculars and posters.Their craziness wasn't just because of EXO's performance. They also screamed whenever a member walked out from backstage to his seat. Many times, the host was forced to stop speaking. When Zhang Han and Zheng Shuang went on stage, his fans had just started to cheer when they were cut off by another cheer. The second cheer was because an EXO member had just came out from backstage. Mean while, Zhang Han, who was onstage giving his speech, was greatly distracted and gave up.

Some of my thoughts
I'm not a kpop fan, but I do think that the EXO boys are pretty awesome. Mostly, I love the gifs of them on tumblr. But that doesn't mean I like their fans. At all. Ok, I know you're excited and want to show support for your idols, but PLEASE. Can you also show some respect for other people's idols? Let the other people speak! I feel bad for the other fans who aren't rude and are in the same fandoms as them.
