Sugungga - verses from the South Korean traditional tale, Sugungga, "Leenalchi's first album is about a turtle. More specifically, a turtle in search of a rabbit's liver — the only antidote for the turtle's ailing emperor. This story is legendary in Korean history, spoken and sung across centuries, with the earliest written record dating back a millennia. Leenalchi, a band named after a famous singer in 19th-century Korea, re-tells this epic in a recently released album, Sugungga, using a fascinating mix of sounds that some glorify as "the real" K-pop." - npr music |

was reading this earlier: "...Jupiter and Saturn, and soon Pluto in Aquarius, call us to truly think globally and act locally. But this is just a taste—preparation for the big social and political work we’ll need to do when Pluto enters Aquarius in a few years, from 2023-2044. The last such relationship occurred from 1777-1798, when the USA labored to form a country that embodied its Constitutional vision statement."
YIKES! what is that Bette Davis quote from All About Eve? "fasten your seatbelts, it's going to be a bumpy night" -- !!!
