오 빠 - Oppa


Whenever you watch a Korean drama or movie, if you listen carefully, you will hear the girl call her boyfriend “oppa”. It’s a Korean word for a female’s older brother. There is no direct translation for this in English, so if you look at the English subtitles, they will write the man’s name instead. So now you know! :-)

As for a male’s older brother, the word “hyung” is used. Thus, you will hear a man calling another man whom he is quite close to “hyung”.

오 빠 (Oppa) – female’s older brother

형 (Hyung) – male’s older brother

Even if the woman is older, but she is in a romantic relationship with a younger guy, she calls him "oppa".

Three Bears song


Our Korean teacher taught us a children’s song during the final Korean class. I’m sure most of you are familiar with it, especially those who have watched the wildly popular drama series Full House. It stars Rain and Song Hye-kyo.

Song Hye-kyo performed the song Three Bears in the show and it became a "smash hit" all across the K-popped! world. Without further ado, I give you 세마리 (Gom se-ma-ri = Three Bears).

Song in Hangul:

세마리가
집에 있어
아빠
, 엄마 , 애기 ,
아빠 곰은 둥둥해
엄마
곰은 날씬해
애기
곰은 너무귀여워
으쓱
, 으쓱 잘한다

Romanised:

Gom se-mari-ga
Han ji-be isseo
Appa gom, omma gom, ae-gi gom
Appa go-meun tung tung hae
Omma go-meun nal-shin-hae
Ae-gi go-meun neo-moo ki-yeo-wo
Eu-sseuk, eu-sseuk, jal-han-da

Sing it and mean it (just like Song Hye-kyo):

Sung Yu-ri Makes Big-Screen Debut




Sung Yu-ri has talked about the difficulties she had making her career transition from a member of girl group FINKL to acting. "I was hurt a lot because I had to endure harsh criticism of my acting," she said at a press conference for her film debut "Rabbit and Lizard" on Monday.

"I have wanted to be in a film for such a long time, but there was so much pressure. I was overwhelmed and scared by the idea of my face filling up a huge screen and my acting being revealed everywhere."

Sung started out as a member of then-hot girl group FINKL in 1998; her acting debut came in 2002 in TV soap "Bad Girls." "For an actor or actress who used to be a singer, not being afraid of the camera can be a strength," she says. "But the more popular you were as a singer, the more pressure you get, and the harsher the criticism will be. So you become very vulnerable and can get hurt easily. That was the case for me. You have to overcome adversity well, taking criticism as expression of attention from fans."


"Rabbit and Lizard" is the story of a Korean-American adoptee who comes back to Seoul to find her biological mother and memories of the past. It was officially invited to the "Korean Cinema Today -- Panorama" section of the 14th Pusan International Film Festival kicking off on Thursday. It goes on general release on Oct. 22.

Sung Yoo-ri Debuts on Big Screen




Actress
Sung Yoo-ri, who has debuted on big screen in the movie "Maybe," recently made the statement, "It was great pressure for me because my face filled the entire screen and my acting was shown to everyone in the world. But we were able to finish the shoot smoothly thanks to the support of the production team. Now it's up to viewers to judge if it was good or not." At the production announcement for the movie on October 5 at Lotte Avenue, Sung introduced herself as a "new actress."

"Maybe" is a story about May, a woman who was adopted in the U.S. when she was young and visited her home country 23 years later in search of her identity. To portray her character, Sung had to perfectly depict the feelings of despair, loss and hope without saying many lines.

Sung said, "Unlike my previous characters, May doesn't talk much. I had to portray her feelings through facial expressions, so I thought a lot of what I would think if I were her. I also watched documentaries about adopted children and learned English."

"The production team hardly ever talked to me because I didn't have to say many lines. At first, I liked it but then it became boring. I chose this movie because of its exotic and unusual scenario," added the actress.

Jang Hyuk, who plays a taxi driver with a rare heart disease, said Sung worked hard and lauded her acting skills as natural. He also added that he liked his character for his refusal to give up and his efforts to do his best. He said, "Despite his heart disease, my character continues to live to the fullest and even meets new women. That's why I told the director that I wanted to take this tole."


"
Maybe" was directed by Joo Ji-hong, who debuted in France in 2004. It is his first domestic production, and it was invited to the 14th Pusan International Film Festival in the category "Korean Film Today - Panorama."

"Maybe" is slated for release on October 22.

Posters for Kim Bum's new movie "Flight" released




The movie will premiere on 3rd December.

Son Ye-jin: 'Ordinary Sinister Roles Lack Charm'

Actress Son Ye-jin looked unusually upbeat when we met with her on November 12 prior to the opening of her new movie "Into The White Night." She was wearing a light and comfortable knit sweater, cute shirt and white skirt. Her radiant smile shined. She also talked quickly and easily. She looked nothing like her perfectly refined character Mi-ho from the movie.

Son said, "It's funny but I was scared of Mi-ho. I was scared of accepting her feelings and being swept up by them. I studied her for a long time while the movie was still in its planning stage, but I decided to 'be' Mi-ho only during filming because I was scared to accept her. It might look irresponsible, but I also need to live my life."



It is already Son's 10th big-screen role. She debuted as a movie actress by playing an innocent woman who falls in love for the first time. So far, she has appeared in "April Snow," "The Art of Seduction," "Open City" and "My Wife Got Married." Each time, she played fresh and provocative characters, displaying her charm to the fullest.

But playing Mi-ho, the daughter of a murderer, was not easy for her. She said, "I thought I wouldn't be nervous this time. But I was nervous during the screening for the first time because I felt big pressure. That was because I received a prestigious award for 'My Wife Got Married' last year, or maybe because this role is especially meaningful to me since it's my tenth big-screen role."



The movie begins by drawing comparisons between Mi-ho being together with her lover, and Yo-han (Ko Soo), who kills someone. At the moment when Mi-ho gets into a car accident, Yo-han is making love to another woman. That is also the reason the word "body exposure" appears alongside the movie title on portal sites. But Son said that this scene showed that Mi-ho and Yo-han were always mentally together, even though they did things separately.

To Son, the most difficult scene was the one where she appears nude and talks to her fiance's daughter. She said, "This scene shouldn't look vulgar and must appear painful. Will viewers understand Mi-ho, or will they think that this scene was just included in order to draw viewers?"

My Tutor Friend" in 2003 and "Love, So Divine" in 2004. His most famous role to date however, was in the 2003 TV series "Stairway to Heaven", which co-starred another Hallyu star Choi Ji-woo and became a hit throughout Asia.

Cha is a Korean model-turned-actor who has appeared in several hit films and two actors from hit TV drama "IRIS" -- Kim Seung-woo who is actress Kim Nam-joo's husband and T.O.P. of popular idol group Big Bang -- will also star in "Fire".

F4 di Taiwan, Jepang & Korea: Bagusan Mana?

meteorgarden.jpg

Sebuah manga asal Jepang yang mengisahkan empat cowok kaya, tampan, dan berpengaruh menuai sukses besar setelah difilmkan di tiga Negara Asia. Serial itu diawali oleh Meteor Garden yang diproduksi Taiwan, kemudian diikuti oleh Hana Yori Dango (Boys Over Flower) untuk publik Jepang, dan yang baru saja diputar di Korea adalah Boys Before Flower.

hanayoridangofinal.jpg

Meski diangkat dari komik yang sama, namun ketiganya mempunyai ciri khas masing-masing. Tapi manakah di antara ketiganya yang paling sukses? Kita akan mengupas satu per satu dari ketiga serial tersebut mulai dari segi karakternya, plotnya, fashion-nya, ratingnya hingga mana yang paling mirip dengan komiknya.

boys-before-flowers.jpg

Dari Segi Karakter

Dalam versi Taiwan para tokoh utama dikisahkan sudah kuliah, sementara versi Jepang masih SMA untuk seri pertama dan kemudian masuk Universitas Eitoku. Dalam versi Korea para tokohnya juga masih SMA, namun di episode ke-13 mereka menjadi mahasiswa di Universitas Shinwa.

Dalam versi Taiwan, Shan Cai adalah anak tunggal yang tingal di sebuah rumah kecil. Shan Cai (yang diperankan Barbie Hsu) pura-pura tidak bisa main piano dengan tujuan untuk membuat ibu Dao Ming Si marah, namun sebenarnya dia bisa memainkannya. Ia juga diceritakan tidak menyukai olah raga tertentu dan sudah menjadi murid di sekolah elit.

Dalam versi Jepang, Tsukushi Makino (dimainkan oleh Mao Inoue) memiliki adik laki-laki sama seperti cerita asli komik. Adiknya hobi makan dan Tsukusi tidak bisa bermain piano saat ulang tahun Tsukasa Domyoji. Namun dia pintar memainkan kendama (mainan khas Jepang). Tsukushi diceritakan menyukai olahraga tertentu dan selain itu ia sudah menjadi menjadi murid di sekolah elit yang berisi anak orang kaya.

Kalau dalam versi Korea dikisahkan Geum Jan Di (Koo Hye Sun) memiliki adik laki-laki dan mempunyai hobi browsing Internet. Jan Di bisa bernyanyi dengan baik. Ia juga ahli dalam olah raga renang dan mendapat beasiswa dari sekolah Shinwa, karena menyelamatkan seorang siswa yang ingin loncat bunuh diri dari gedung sekolah.

Kemudian bagaimana dengan para tokoh utama yang pria? Karakter Tsukasa Domoyoji dalam komik diceritakan keras kepala, egois, dan manja. Dalam Boys Before Flower (versi Korea) Goo Jun Pyo (Lee Min Ho) adalah karakter yang dianggap paling tidak terlalu kasar dan keras seperti Dao Ming Si (Jerry Yan) ataupun Tsukasa Domyoji (Jun Matsumoto). Jun Pyo tidak pernah melayangkan pukulannya ke Jan Di. Dia hanya sebatas membanting barang atau memukul temannya yang dianggap keterlaluan. Jun Pyo terkesan lebih humoris. Sementara Ming Si kadang memukul San Chai dan Tsukasa kerap memukul banyak orang. Di antara ketiga karakter ini, Dao Ming Si adalah sosok yang paling garang. Sosok Jerry Yan dianggap paling berhasil menghidupkan sifat Tsukasa yang galak.

Sementara 3 personil F 4 yang lain seperti Rui Hanazawa, di Taiwan diperankan oleh Vic Zhou alias Zai Zai yang memerankan Hua Ze Lei. Di Jepang tokoh Rui Hanazawa diperankan oleh Shun Ogori, sedangkan di Korea ada tokoh Yoon Ji Ho yang dilakoni oleh Kim Hyun Joong. Peran Yoon Ji Hoo diceritakan menjadi karakter penting dalam kehidupan Jan Di Di Boys Befor Flowers (BBF). Sementara dalam versi Taiwan dan Jepang peran Hua Ze Lei dan Rui lebih banyak menjadi saingan cinta Dao Min Si dan Tsukasa. Dalam versi Taiwan, perasaan Hua Ze Lei kepada San Chai diceritakan hanya samar-samar, tidak jelas apakah ia jatuh cinta atau tidak. Tapi dalam versi Korea Ji Hoo jatuh cinta dan mengakui perasaannya kepada Jan Di secara langsung.

Kemudian ada Sojirou Nishikado yang dalam versi Jepang diperankan oleh Shota Matsuda. Baik dalam versi Taiwan dan Jepang, hubungan cinta antara Xi Men (Ken Zu) dan Sojirou dengan teman baik San Chai dan Tsukushi (Xi Men dan Xiao You) , serta Sojirou dan Yuuki hanya dibuat sebagai bumbu cerita di samping kisah cinta segitiga tokoh utama. Sementara dalam versi Korea, hubungan So Yi Jung (Kim Bum) dan Chu Ga Eul (Kim So Eun) dijadikan ikut berkembang secara intensif di sepanjang cerita. Hubungan mereka berdua juga dibuat plot tersendiri oleh sutradara.

Cowok keempat dalam F4 adalah Akira Mimasaka (Tsuyoshi Abe). Akira disebut sebagai anggota F4 termuda versi Jepang. Namun dalam versi Taiwan, usia Mei Zuo (Vannes Wu) tidak dijelaskan detil, karena plot cerita lebih mengutamakan hubungan cinta segitiga Dao Ming Si, San Chai, dan Hua Ze Lei. Sementara dalam versi Korea, Song Woo Bin (Kim Joon) dikisahkan berusia paling tua. Selain itu keluarga Woo Bin tidak diceritakan karena ia hanya tertarik pada wanita dewasa saja, bukan gadis-gadis sekolah.

Song Hye-gyo Makin Melejit

Setelah putus dengan Lee Byung-hun nama Song Hye-gyo semakin melejit. Setelah tampil di serial baru, Full House bersama aktor Rain, membuat keduanya dinobatkan sebagai salah satu pasangan paling serasi di televisi.

Sejak merampungkan serial yang menampilkan sisi lainnya tersebut, gadis kelahiran tahun 1982 itu ternyata bukan tipe orang yang ngoyo dan memanfaatkan kesempatan. Ia bahkan mengurangi kegiatannya di dunia hiburan, tercatat sejak musim panas tahun ini Hye-gyo lebih menyibukkan diri tampil untuk pemotretan majalah dan iklan.

Kegiatan itu sendiri dijalaninya dengan gembira, pasalnya lokasi pemotretan dilakukan di Amerika dan Eropa membuatnya bisa menikmati 'liburan' dengan gratis. Sejumlah foto yang diambil tersebut kabarnya telah dipublikasikan secara online di situs pribadinya.

Gadis yang melejit berkat peran Eun-suh di Autumn Love Story atau yang lebih beken dengan judul Endless Love ini mengaku hal itu sengaja dilakukannya supaya bisa beristirahat, memperoleh energi baru, dan memilih peran mana yang terbaik untuknya.

Hye-gyo mengatakan bahwa sebagai seorang artis, dirinya membutuhkan tuntutan baru setiap kali tampil. Bisa jadi, ia mulai bosan dengan peran stereotip sebagai seorang gadis yang selalu ditimpa kemalangan.

Kabar terakhir menyebutkan, serial All In yang menjadi kenangannya bersama Byung-hun telah diputar di wilayah Eropa Timur pada akhir Oktober lalu. Kita tunggu saja apakah akting Hye-gyo mampu menggerakkan hati masyarakat Eropa yang belum mengenal kebudayaan Korea.

Setelah itu adonan dibuat dengan bentuk panjang dan bulat . Kemudian oleskan sedikit minyak wijen di luarnya biar tidak langsung mengeras. Nah Garaetteok sudah jadi. Gampang bukan…? Karena Jajanan ini sangat populer, maka Garaetteok telah diproduksi secara pabrikan, dan harganya menjadi relatif murah dan tentu tidak repot .
