I thought Lunar New Year was a neutral term.

Eesh, Netizens sure can pick anything to be upset about. I just assumed it’d be Chinese New Year in China, but everywhere else it’d be Lunar New Year

Surprisingly each country has it’s own name for the Lunar New Year.

Thank you for sharing. My curiosity led me to the Lunar Calendar on Britannica’s site.

Hey, Everyone!
I wasn’t sure where to post this question, so I’m posting it here since this forum is for all topics. I’ve only been a volunteer here at Viki for a short time, although I’ve been a subscriber for a while now. Anyway, I’ve noticed that some dramas are edited very quickly and the episodes get released on a fast schedule while other dramas the episodes are edited very slowly, and some projects even it has been many months or years, and sometimes they stop the editing completely. Why is that? I mean, why does that happen? It says on the Volunteer guidelines that when you accept a project you are supposed to be able to work on it “as it is airing” so why are some projects okay and then other projects are not if everyone on the teams has agreed to commit to the project? I’m still trying to understand about this. I don’t mean to offend anyone and I’m not trying to be difficult or accuse any people. I’m just trying to understand why this is happening.
A quick search will bring up the threads that has the answer, there are a few out there with this question, and answer. I’ll link you to it/them shortly.
Okay, here are two of my search returns:

See review pictured. I found it in this link:
@table122000,
Checking in with volunteers you’ve worked with might prove more helpful. This will help with relevance, due to updates.

Very interesting about the “onion bouquet.” I think I would have combined the onions with some flowers so I could have the best of both worlds. Glad to see the government stepped in to help bring the price of onions down.

Neat idea! 
Didn’t think of that, plus she already budgeted for the flowers. 
Exactly! 🧅 🧅

Yes, I saw that they already had a flower budget. I think they probably could have worked with the florist to design a bouquet that combined the onions with some flowers and still kept within their budget.

Now I have seen it all… A Pizza wedding bouquet! Actually, it looks rather attractive, but I don’t think I would want to have the scent of pizza wafting over me as I walk down the isle. Also, I would be terrified of getting a stain on my wedding dress.

Brides get the chance to carry a pizza bouquet instead of flowers
I have seen ridiculous stuff in my life …but a pizza bouquet? 
. It’s hard enough with regular clothes to keep from spilling; imagine a gorgeous white wedding dress?
The thought of smelling the strong odor of pizza, it’s even worse to imagine on a wedding day. I think only an owner of a pizza place would have no issues doing that and actually enjoy it. lol

I know, right? I wonder if anyone entered the drawing- the article doesn’t say. I doubt they had many entries.
It is amazing how the food stylist was able to make flowers out of the pizza dough and sauce, though.

I hate to disappoint you @frustratedwriter, but from what you sent it looks like an impersonator to me. I don’t know that much about Kim Woo Bin but from what I understand his English language skills are pretty good, so I’m a little suspect about the bad grammar in some of the replies. Also, I find it suspect that he keeps repeating the same phrase of “wanting to know you” over and over. That feels more like what scammers do. Also, “bad people wanting to spoil his career?” I am skeptical. I would definitely proceed with caution.
