Young Blue-dragons; Package of Promising Actors

Image
Fall is fading and winter already at the gate in South Korea. It means the year is coming to another end (as always time flies on its own will). On the other hand, it’s award season for everykind of Hallyu showbiz: music, TV-drama, film, etc. Say hello for red carpet moments! Blue Dragon Awards is one of the top three Korean film industry ceremonies, along with Grand Bell (Daejong) Awards (held earlier this month) and Baeksang Awards (in the spring). This year, the event took place at Kyung Hee University Grand Peace Palace on November 22, 2013. Actually, I only steal a peek on the recap of winners and red carpet events a week ago (via dramabeans.com ). Here is the thing that stole my attention from the 34th Blue Dragon Awards . I found it, among all of the winners, nominees, and guests walked in elegant and glamour. There are some youngsters taking away noonas breath, hahaha. It’s the package of New Actor Nominees , fresh meat on the table! As expected, Yeo Jin-goo (16)

Yo! Brothaa... Your eyes caught me! Finally I got my chance, it’s been a long time that I want to review some of South Korean celebrities who have big candy eyes. Anticipating my long-winding tendency while writing an article, I will only upload the photos and write a little information. I hope I can hold back my fingers, hahaha. Today’s review consisted of 5 actors, 3 idols, and 1 not-actor-not-idol-just-singer. Here are the nominees: Actor(1): Jang Dong-gun ( 장동건 ) I admit Donggun-ssi character in SBS’s A Gentleman’s Dignity is pretty hilarious: cool, forty-something, single, architect, his company bankrupted 3 times, hardly to commit and having temporary amnesia disorder (what a character!). Omo, his son Jang Joon-hyuk ( 장준혁 ) gets the same big candy eyes from his father, so cute! I read news that his wife is now pregnant, so they soon to have second child around March or April next year. Congratz! Actor(2): Kang Dong-won ( 강동원 ) He is my favourite o

Ups and Downs: Mempelajari Bahasa

Saya ingin mencurahkan pikiran sebentar (curpik, bukan curhat, hahaha). Saya sudah jauh melewati usia pendidikan dasar (wajib belajar 12 tahun plus mencicipi indahnya jadi siswa di sekolah yang tidak wajib alias kuliah), tetapi memiliki ketergantungan yang lumayan kuat pada kegiatan belajar. Saya suka belajar dan ingin terus belajar. Kegemaran saya yang tidak pernah luntur adalah belajar mengenai bahasa. Cita-cita saya tidak muluk-muluk kok , saya keturunan Jawa ( wong Jawa ) dan warganegara Indonesia, saya merasa sudah seharusnya fasih basa Jawa dan bahasa Indonesia. Satu bahasa lagi: bahasa Inggris, sebagai bahasa ampuh yang bisa kita gunakan ke hampir seluruh belahan bumi untuk bisa bertahan hidup (siapa tahu saya mendapat kesempatan untuk menjelajahi negeri indah lainnya).   Kemampuan bahasa Indonesia saya sebenarnya bisa dibilang sangat lumayan, tapi kemampuan ini tentu tidak kentara karena saya lahir, besar dan hidup diantara orang-orang yang berbahasa Indonesia, hahaha...
