Taemin doing Key Good&Great challenge. my brain is so confused. first he is a muscular beast, then he wears a skirt, now he turned into a middle schooler? Im dizzy. what´s next
this patron in the library looks like an alien in human suit from MIB and it is too creepy. oh and should I wake up this teenager who fell asleep while reading?
Omoni… Hwasa OMG isn´t she playing riskaaayy for korean audience? but, the message is clear: you have no agenda over my body and my self-image. pheef, I cannot watch this at work
I want to create a facebook group for the Korean Culture Club but I need to think of a catchy name since there is also one in Tartu University. How to name it like an idol fandom? help
How’s the other (Tartu University) one called? Or is it just Korean Culture Club?
Here are some random thoughts, they may not be good but hopefully, they can give you a baseline to think of some funky names!
I’d go down the route of using Hanguk in the name or any other Korean words that people are already familiar with, mostly because those who are interested in Korean culture will most certainly recognise those, and also because I like the sound of it. It opens the door to catchy odd names:
The Hanguk🇰🇷, Hanbok👘, Hangwa🍬 Club of Korean Culture
Don’t Touch my Kimchi Club! (sorry this one might sound incredibly racist but I don’t mean it like that. I just love the idea of using kimchi as a cultural starting point to expand into the K culture and history)
Korea Saranghae (and easy one for all those who know saranghae which is 99% of the population now, even though few know how to use it properly)
From Hanguk, with love (not that James Bond ever had anything to do with Korea, but From Russia, with love, is a recognisable title)
I’d like to mention that for simplicity, I’m keeping those grammatically incorrect. Can’t burden people with grammar at this point!
LOL I do love Don´t Touch My Kimchi, but what about You can touch my kimchi?
although, library…
I think the other one IS just Korean Culture Club ( with UT aka Universitas Tartuensis in front)
I tried letters…
Like Ta-Ke-Ra-Ko (Tallinn, Central, Library, Korean) but that sounds japanese instead. Pirates of the Koreabean?
KoRa-zone?
Wait, you’re in Tallinn? I might go to Tallinn next month. Originally, I wanted to visit and check the escape room scene, but does this mean there is also a Korean scene in Tallinn?!
My god, yes, Pirates of the Koreabean!!! This gets all my votes!
yeah there is kind of, we have our King Sejong Institute, there is the Lyra cultural society and Im trying to bring everything together in the Central Library (it is right next to freedom Square and Opera Theater so very easy to come here). we will do taekwondo and baduk on the 22nd, and in october I think we might do some cooking and talk about the fandoms and fan culture in general. also I will have the members each prepare a presentation of their favorite group. and in november I dunno yet. might do some dancing. ‘
I keep involving my teachers and any local koreans I know, today my professor said she will try to participate because she is trying to learn estonian. we might also do a language cafe
So, today I had the chance to be in the audience in the local version of I can see your voice ( I think it is the 3rd season). It was pretty interesting but naturally you cannot go pee or have a snack or anything, almost 4 hours. And the assistant director was constantly pushing the audience for more and more reaction, like im gonna burst if I do more, my hands hurt and I did feel silly at times. But it was all right, I´m used to doing all the odd stuff as an extra, a TV show is like vacation – but could have used a pee break all the same!
What is funny, is that I knew 3 people from the ones participating. A fellow textile artist, a marine, that I talk to on Instagram, and a young guy who has sang in my dads´choir. It was pretty easy for me, but the council and the players were hilarious. We don´t have the new system yet with all singers lipsyncing at once and also the players who guess are regular people not stars, the star sits with the council and sings the duet. It is so odd that the only rapper in the council is getting it right way more time than the singer, the actress or most of the guest singers. He just reads people well, maybe it is his street smarts? Today, the guest singer was Alika Milova who represented us on Eurovision this year. She has a really powerful voice and she got to sing two totally different but really cool duets.
Im not entirely sure it is not by script because some things were really suspicius.
The show is quite popular but never once have they referenced the Korean original or included any homage to it. A bit disappointing. But I guess they want to make it Our Own Show in a way.
I have been seriously missing Seo In Guk in a fun and cute drama a la King of High School or Shopaholic Louis, and loooooooooooook: https://www.soompi.com/article/1610821wpp/seo-in-guk-and-lee-sung-kyung-in-talks-to-lead-new-romance-drama-by-she-was-pretty-writer
He is offered a new drama by the writer of High School King of Savvy! OMG! And to top it off, do we get an actual deaf character? It seems challenging enough, but I do hope it is not from a pity point of view. Deaf people are like their own community and with sign language in their toolkit, they actually have leverage. I have around 16 friends with hearing restrictions or deaf. Let´s hope it will be an empowering drama – I´d prefer if he learned to rely on his own strength not a romantic interest, and learned how to come out on top despite hearing loss.
I found the Insta account of an actress from korea I used to talk to. She´s gotten married in the meantime. I hope she gives another shot 2 directing bc I enjoyed her short films a lot but they R 2014
Taemin´s backup dancers´POV, I haven´t seen this before. I was always curious about them, it is so nice to get to know them a bit. wonderfully talented people.
There is zombie detective, vampire detective and ghost detective, can we put together a team? Oh, interesting: who would you pick ad \”kdrama avenger squad?\” (characters) hmmm.
Barbie movie: don´t know why I watched it. Cause I haven´t gone to movies for a long time? I didn´t actually WANT to see it. didnt LIKE anything, did chuckle cause it was cringe and obvious.
“The film was remade in India as Sathyabhama (2007) (in Telugu) and as Ormayundo Ee Mukham (2014) (in Malayalam), in Japan as 50 First Kisses (2018), in Iran as Chap dast (2005) and in Mexico as Como si fuera la primera vez in 2019.”
Stay tuned for the Korean version 50 Subway Dates.
Male idols are often muscular or at least have muscles, lots of them really athletic, like Minhyuk from BTOB, muscles Wonho, Shownu, 2PM come to mind, I mean skinny doesn’t mean they don’t exercise
