I tried joining a few online fan cafés a while ago.. it was so difficult to figure out or to find any nice looking ones. So I've given up on that idea
Do you mind sharing which blogs you've found? I liked the one you shared before
Yes! What is up with the geocities vibe??? I read this interesting article on the differences between American and Japanese web design, and I think Korean web design is similar. I'm not huge on fandoms but I did look at some cafes for other topics I'm interested in. I was pretty much immediately confused by the leveling up system, though.
So I literally went to blog.naver.com, hit 주제별 보기, and browsed what felt interesting to me. I think the 사진 section worked out because either the thumbnail photo is interesting or it's not. If it's an interesting picture, it's probably at least minimally interesting to read a little about it. Here's some photo and video of a lovely starry night sky at 태안 beach, and here's some beautiful shots of lotus flowers with a discussion of different types of cameras and photography. I have not read a lot yet, but the other nice thing about looking for photo stories is that even if I get totally discouraged on the text, there's some nice pictures to look at.
A sort of turbocharged method of searching for interesting texts via photos is Instagram. The only problem is the texts under photos tend to be very short. But that can actually be desirable at the early stages or when you only have a few minutes to spare.
