Korean Celebrities Commit Suicide,,,

   Korea is listed as one of the top countries that people often commit suicide. I am very ashamed of the fact. Just few days ago, a Korean singer commit suicide because of depression. Not only that, a sports announcer also committed suiced because of the rumors wandering around the internet about her. Even though it has been about half of the year of 2011, many celebrities passed away of committing suicide.

   One of the main reason for committing suicide is depression. Plus, celebrities are very likely to get this mental disease because of the rumors that many people talk about without any actual information. The word from mean netizens and thoughtless people stab into celebrities' heart and make them very depressed. Even I would get the disease if people around me back-talk of me and strange rumors about me wander around people. I think people should be more careful  when they are talking about other people.

   Why poor celebrities should be the victims? Shouldn't they be the happiest people since they get people's attention and become popular of many people? Shouldn't they be the happiest people since many fans of them cheer and support them? People have their own right to be happy and nobody cannot take the right away.

Korean Barbeque!!!

   If somebody ask me what my favorite food is, I will say "Of course Korean Barbeque!!!" I love Korean barbeque so much that once an every weekends, me and my family all go to Korean barbeque place. My father also like it very much; I think the reason I like it so much is because of my father.


   You see this delicious looking thing? Oh my god, it looks so tasty that I get hungry again. Koeran barbeque is seasoned with special sauce of the restaurant. This sause is usually a top secret of the restaurant. Because the restaurants prepare their own seasonings and the quality of the meat, every restaurants have their own deep taste.



   There are more kinds of Korean barbeque. The picture above is a picture of steamed beef barbeque. This is one of the best food in Korean history!! With this, I can eat about five bowls of rice. Also, lots of vegetables are steamed with the meat, such as potatoes, carrets, and onions. This is also well-being food because of the fact. Um,,, I want to taste the meat with a spoonful of rice!!

   Well,,, I personally think Korea foods are definitely one of the best food in the world. Many foreigners come to Korea to taste the foods in here. The food is becoming gloabally famous and I am very proud of the fact. Among those delicious foods, I love Korean barbeque the best!!!

I am a Singer!!!!

   In these days. the Korean entertainment program called 'I am a Singer' is very famous and popular. Many Korean people, teenagers to old people, watch it every weekends and talk about it. I am also one of those viewers, and me and my friends get very excited when we watch it. In this show, seven extremely talanted and great singers compete with others and in every two weeks, one of the singers get eliminated and another great singer join the competition.

   The video up there is a song named 'Please' by Bum-soo Kim. As you see, he sings so well that I got very amazed. While I was watching it, I was very shocked and could not think of any other things; I only concentrated on listening to the song. Not only that, other singers are so great that people who watch the concert just say "Wow,,,"


   This song is 'You All' by Jae-bum Lim. In this concert, a lot of the audience was so into the song and got full of emotion that they could not hold their tears while seeing him singing. Him, also, was so into emotion that he also cried during his concert.

   I personally think this show is a great show. Every weekends, the show becomes a very hot topic and many people talk about the show. I also get very excited about this show. I am already eager to see the next episode!!!

Idols, the Face of Korea

    A lot of Korean teenagers are crazy about idol singgers. They are young, looks pretty and handsome, and have many talents to show to people. I am personally not interested in idol singers, but I cannot deny that idol girl groups are pretty and look hot. Especially Hyun-a in 4 minutes, Hyo-sung in Secret, and IU who is a solo singer are very popular and pretty. Among those three, IU have enourmous popularity and most of Korean guys in my age are crazy about her.
   This is picture of IU, the hottest icon of the idols among many idol groups. Many people agree that she does not have the prettiest face, but she is very cute, young, and attractive. When I saw her on TV at first, I was not that impressed by her, but the more and more time I see her, she seems lovely and attractive. I think that is the advantage of idol groups, looking more and more nice and hot.
   This is the picture of Girls Generation, the most popular idol group in Korea among guys. They are composed of nine members. As you see, most of idols are in groups. All nine of the memebers have enormous amount of popilarity.  Even few crazy fans try to kidnap them and own them on their own. I personally am not interested in them, and I sometimes do not understand my friends who gets crazy about them. Even older people, like in thirties and fourties like them and go to their concerts to see them on their real eyes.

   I think Koreans are crazy about idols. I firstly thought that Idol typoon will be gone in short time, but my guess was very wrong. I do not think their popularity will not be gone until they get old and wrinkled.


What do I love to do? DOTA!!!

    What do I love to do? In these days, the most favorite thing I enjoy is computer games. I play a very popular game named Warcraft. Blizzard game company made it and I believe that a lot of people around the world play this game. It is like Starcraft; it is war tactic simulation game, and it has a lot of mini games created by individuals. Among those minigames made by a lot of people, I enjoy playing DOTA. Main story of the game is that heroes from the opposite sides, sentinal and scourge, fight each other to achieve victory. I have been playing this game for a long time, and I cannot quit playing it!

   This is the picture of DOTA characters. I think somebody who plays it made miniatures of the characters. They look pretty cool huh? Once you start the game, you are supposed to choose one of the characters, and then you start to make your character stronger. Whenever you see your enemy, you have to fight against them and kill them.
   This is one of the battle scene. You see that few characters are chasing for their enemy to pawn him. The character that is in very front is running away from those characters. DOTA goes on by these fights, and basically the team that has more kills and that destroyed more buildings win. It is pretty hard to play well if you are begginer, but once you get used to it and understand basic skills of the characters, you also can be in the middle of the plays!

Yuna Kim!!!!

   Yuna Kim!!! She is a great figure skater of Korea and won several gold medals in world championships including Olympics. She is one of the most famous celebrities in Korea, and make huge amount of money. I have been a huge fan of her since I firstly saw her performance. In the performance, she was so gorgeous and beautiful, that I could not take my eyes off of her. I was just thinking 'Oh my God She is so pretty I want to go out with her.' Well, I know, it is very unlikely to happen, but I always dreamed her going out with me.

   This is her picture of her with the gold medal from Olympics. I still remember the moment. The most surprising fact was that the announcer, who is American, was cheering for her over American performer. He said 'Yuna Kim is the greatest figure skater in the world and I am so excited that I am just about to watch her skating.' Since then, I realized that how great she is and how far I am from her. Sad.... Well the performance was perfect and she achieved the gold medal with incredible score. She almost got perfect scores from all the judges, which is very unlikely to happen. I think that moment was when she looked most beautiful to me.

   She is heroine of Korea and very attractive woman. Most of Korean guys love her. Well, one of my biggest wish in my life is seeing her in person and to talking to her. Well, I would say just being a friend with her.

Korea My Home Country

    Well, as most of people who know me in person, I am Korean. Sometimes, people in foriegn countries such as Americans or Canadians, they ask me if I am South Korean or North Korean. Well, I think it is a very stupid question because usually North Koreans are not allowed to leave their country. Well, even though I think so, I understand those people who ask me such question because they do not know about Korea very well. So I want to introduce to you guys about my Home Country South Korea.
    This is a map of Korea. As you all know, Seoul is capital city of the country, and it is located near the border line between North and South Korea. Some poeple might think that it would be very dangerous that such a big capital city is located near NK, but do not worry, we have not been fighting since Korean war.

    This is a picture of Gangnam, which is a main part of Seoul. A lot of economic activities happens in there. Well, other parts of Seoul is a lot similar to there, but this street is the most famous to many Koreans. Also, there are many stores, entertainments, and restaurants.


    This is a picture of Korean palace. Long time ago, when Korea was ruled by kings, they lived in there. Also, Korean government was also in those palaces. All the governing processes happend in those palaces, and everyone who were related with Korean kingdom stayed there. Every governing process happened in there.



    One thing that Korea is most famous for is Korean food!!! They are very delicious and natural. Many Korean foods are healthy and also many foreign people like them. The picture above is one of the most popular Korean food, bibimbob. It is rice mixed with many kinds of vegetables and Korean hot sauce. The Korean hot sauce gives the eater little bit of spicy and sweet taste. I love that food!!


    Korea is not as famous as France, America, England and so on. However, I am very proud of myself that I am Korean,  and I love my country. I hope many people come visit Korea and experience some Korean culture.
