If I keep blogging about goofy Japanese devices, it's not that I want to ridicule them or anything. It's simply that I'm green -yes green!- with envy. They have all those fabulous gadgets that hardly ever make it to Europe or the U.S. Like this Winter Sonata' voice cup.

Apparently, "Winter Sonata" was a South Korean TV drama with a male star called Bae Yon Joon who's sending middle-aged Japanese women into raptures.

This cup might be rather ugly but as you pour liquid into it, you can hear the show's theme song and the aboved-mentioned Bae Yon Joon whispering "You are the only woman I love. I would love to be with you even after my hair turns gray. I would love to have a baby with your eyes. For you, for our future baby, I offer my warm hands and strong legs to support you. I love you."
