*i'm posting this story/article here because m proud to be a Johorian and theres a song here that i love to hum... nyways, its a meaningful story and a historical one.
Kebencian terhadap penjajah punca pendekar yang didakwa lanun bersama pengikut bangkit menentang British
ADA beberapa tokoh misteri yang nama mereka ‘hilang’ dalam lembaran sejarah perjuangan menentang penjajah di tanah air, ratusan tahun lalu. Walaupun kewujudan mereka suatu ketika dulu memberi sumbangan besar dan mencetuskan kegerunan di jiwa penjajah, kebanyakan tokoh ini tidak disebut dalam mana-mana dokumen sejarah.
Menyedari pentingnya sumbangan dan kewujudan pahlawan misteri itu didedahkan kepada khalayak untuk diiktiraf sejarah tanah air, ahli Persatuan Sejarah Malaysia cawangan Jelebu, Negeri Sembilan; Abdul Latip Talib, memulakan penyelidikan bagi membongkar rahsia kehilangan mereka.
“Antara tokoh terbabit adalah Si Bongkok Tanjung Puteri yang sehingga kini, sejarah perjuangannya masih tidak diketahui ramai pihak,” katanya yang menulis novel sejarah berkenaan pahlawan itu, tahun lalu.
Beliau berkata, tidak seperti tokoh pejuang lain seperti Datuk Bahaman di Pahang atau Rentap di Sarawak, sejarah negara ini tidak pernah mengenali siapa Si Bongkok yang berjuang menentang British dan sekutunya di Johor.
“Ceritanya bermula apabila British mula menjajah Singapura seterusnya cuba melebarkan pengaruh mereka ke Johor,” kata Abdul Latip seterusnya memulakan kisah perjuangan Si Bongkok Tanjung Puteri yang kini semakin hilang dalam lipatan sejarah negara.
Pernah suatu ketika sekitar abad ke-19, Kerajaan Johor tidak diperintah oleh Sultannya tetapi pentadbiran dan segala urusan negeri diuruskan Temenggung Abdul Rahman atas sokongan British.
Polemik itu berlaku apabila Sultan Hussein mangkat pada 1835; putera baginda iaitu Tengku Ali cuba mendapatkan haknya sebagai Sultan Johor tetapi dihalang Temenggung Abdul Rahman.
Akibat daripada perebutan kuasa itu, muncul kisah perjuangan Si Bongkok di Tanjung Puteri (kini Johor Bahru). Beliau berhasrat mengusir pengaruh penjajah dari bumi Johor dan tidak bersetuju dengan hasrat pemerintah negeri yang berbaik-baik dengan British.
Si Bongkok juga inginkan takhta kesultanan Johor yang ketika itu dikuasai Temenggung Abdul Rahman, dikembalikan kepada pewaris asal iaitu Tengku Ali.
Si Bongkok memang nama asalnya manakala nama bapanya adalah Damak. Dinamakan dirinya sebagai ‘Si Bongkok’ berikutan keadaan tubuh badannya yang cacat iaitu bongkok ke kanan manakala tangan kirinya pula cengkung. Mukanya pula herot dan bengkak ke kanan.
Walaupun dilahirkan sebagai insan yang cacat, Si Bongkok membesar sebagai seorang pemuda yang gagah dan berani. Beliau cekap bermain senjata dan mahir dalam ilmu lautan. Si Bongkok juga dikatakan memiliki ilmu kebal yang menyebabkan jasadnya tidak akan luka sama ada ditembak atau ditikam senjata tajam.
Kewibawaan beliau dikagumi ramai pihak sehingga Si Bongkok diangkat menjadi pemimpin oleh pengikutnya yang ramai. Di kalangan musuhnya sendiri beliau digelar Panglima Si Bongkok.
Si Bongkok hidup di atas kapal layar di tengah laut. Dia mempunyai pengikut yang ramai dan masing-masing memang cekap bermain senjata serta mengendalikan kapal di laut.
Kebenciannya terhadap penjajah dan pemimpin tempatan yang mengadakan hubungan dengan bangsa asing itu menyebabkan Si Bongkok bersama pengikutnya bangkit menentang.
Mereka akan menyerang kapal bangsa asing yang melalui perairan Johor untuk berdagang di pelabuhan Tanjung Puteri atau Singapura. Tindakan itu menyebabkan British melabelkan mereka sebagai lanun.
Disebabkan serangan Si Bongkok dan pengikutnya, aktiviti perdagangan dan ekonomi di Tanjung Puteri dan Singapura semakin merosot kerana kebanyakan pedagang asing tidak lagi berani memasuki wilayah itu.
Keadaan itu menimbulkan kebimbangan kepada British menyebabkan bangsa asing itu mengarahkan Temenggung Abdul Rahman supaya menghapuskan kumpulan Si Bongkok.
Bagaimanapun, walau pelbagai cara digunakan untuk membunuh Si Bongkok, usaha itu tidak pernah berhasil kerana dipercayai tiada siapa yang mengetahui cara untuk mengatasi ilmu kebal yang dikuasai pahlawan itu.
Usaha mengekang serangan Si Bongkok terus diperketat dengan rondaan berterusan diadakan di perairan Selat Tebrau. Kerajaan Johor dan British juga semakin khuatir kerana angkatan laut Si Bongkok memiliki ubat bedil dan senjata api hasil rampasan kapal dagang Barat yang diserang mereka.
Pada suatu hari, satu angkatan laut Johor diketuai Panglima Johor, Laksamana Daeng Alek meronda di Selat Tebrau mencari Si Bongkok. Kehadiran tentera diraja itu untuk menangkapnya sudah diketahui Si Bongkok melalui perisiknya di istana. Si Bongkok pun bersedia menghadapi tentangan angkatan Panglima Johor.
Rondaan kapal perang Panglima Johor akhirnya berjaya mengesan kedudukan kapal Si Bongkok. Mereka segera merapati kapal itu untuk menyerangnya.
Si Bongkok mengarahkan pengikutnya seramai lima puluh orang menyerang belas askar diraja itu. Pertempuran hebat berlaku di atas kapal, di tengah lautan.
Selepas lama bertempur, akhirnya angkatan Panglima Johor tewas. Mereka terpaksa berundur kembali ke pangkalan di Tanjung Puteri selepas ramai askar diraja yang terkorban dan lima kapal perangnya, karam.
Kekalahan itu tidak memutuskan semangat Panglima Johor untuk terus menyerang Si Bongkok. Pada hari yang lain, mereka menyerang lagi dengan lebih ramai askar. Angkatan perang Panglima Johor berjaya mengepung beberapa kapal Si Bongkok tetapi dengan kebijaksanaannya, Si Bongkok berjaya melarikan diri ke tempat persembunyiannya sekitar Tanjung Belungkur.
Kegagalan itu menyebabkan Laksamana Daeng Alek, Kerajaan Johor serta British semakin marah dan tertekan.
Selain Panglima Johor, turut menentang Si Bongkok adalah adiknya sendiri iaitu Panglima Putih. Berbeza dengan Si Bongkok yang menyokong Tengku Ali, Panglima Putih menyokong Temenggung Abdul Rahman menyebabkan mereka bermusuhan.
Mereka berdua juga dikatakan mencintai gadis yang sama iaitu Si Tanjung. Bersama Laksamana Daeng Alek, Panglima Putih beberapa kali menyerang abangnya tetapi tetap gagal menghapuskan Si Bongkok. Si Bongkok pula terus menyerang kapal dagang yang ingin berlabuh di Tanjung Puteri dan Singapura.
Episod akhir perjuangan Si Bongkok berlaku apabila sekali lagi kapalnya diserang. Akan tetapi, serangan pada kali itu lebih dahsyat kerana setiap penjuru perairan Selat Tebrau sudah dikepung angkatan laut Johor.
Si Bongkok dapat melepaskan diri ke Tanjung Belungkur, tempat persembunyiannya tetapi kapal Panglima Putih terus mengejar.

“SELEPAS Si Bongkok menemui ajalnya di tepi pantai itu, mayatnya dijumpai seorang penduduk tempatan dikenali Uteh Jantan.
“Kemudian Uteh Jantan bersama beberapa penduduk kampung membawa mayat Si Bongkok sehingga ke lereng bukit Tanjung Puteri dan pahlawan itu dikebumikan di situ secara rahsia,” kata penulis novel Si Bongkok Tanjung Puteri, Abdul Latip Talib.
Beliau berkata, pengebumian itu dilakukan secara rahsia kemungkinan bagi mengelakkan Kerajaan Johor dan British mengambil jasad pahlawan yang sememangnya disokong penduduk tempatan.
Katanya, penduduk terbabit juga mungkin khuatir mereka akan ditahan pihak berkuasa kerana mengebumikan jasad Si Bongkok menyebabkan mereka tidak menghebohkan lokasi mayat itu ditanam.
Kini, pusara berkenaan terletak dalam hutan belukar di kaki bukit Tanjung Puteri dan pengunjung perlu meredah semak dan denai selama setengah jam untuk sampai di sana. Penduduk yang tidak biasa dengan keadaan hutan itu, pasti tersesat dan tidak menemui kubur pahlawan berkenaan.
Sebaik melihat pusara berkenaan pula, perasaan sayu dan pilu menjelma di jiwa tatkala melihat keadaannya yang terbiar tanpa ada usaha untuk memuliharanya. Pusara itu sekadar bernesankan sekeping papan yang sudah reput.
“Mengikut cerita penduduk tempatan, nesan itu diletakkan seorang lelaki pada 23 Januari 1981 selepas dia bermimpi didatangi Si Bongkok yang menyuruhnya menanda pusara pahlawan berkenaan,” katanya.
Abdul Talib berkata, berdasarkan penemuan kubur berkenaan selain cerita mengenai Si Bongkok yang tersebar secara lisan sehingga hampir ke seluruh Johor sehingga kini, maka beliau yakin yang Si Bongkok sememangnya pernah wujud dan bukanlah cerita dongeng. Malah, namanya turut disebut dalam lagu rakyat Johor iaitu ‘Tanjung Puteri’.
Katanya, beliau mula menulis novel sejarah mengenai Si Bongkok sejak tahun lalu bagi memperbetulkan kembali ‘fitnah’ yang dilemparkan terhadap pahlawan itu kononnya beliau adalah lanun dan bukannya pejuang menentang penjajah.
Selain itu, usaha membukukan kisah perjuangan Si Bongkok juga dibuat Abdul Latip bagi membolehkan cebisan sejarah lisan yang tersimpan dalam ingatan orang lama, tidak hilang ditelan masa seterusnya nama Si Bongkok akan dikenang melewati masa.
“Saya percaya ramai pejuang Melayu yang nama mereka hilang daripada lipatan sejarah negara kita dan Si Bongkok adalah seorang daripada pejuang itu; sejarah kita dulu ditulis British menyebabkan ramai pahlawan kita yang menentang mereka dianggap penderhaka dan nama mereka tidak dicatat dalam sejarah.
“Saya berharap supaya sejarah ini boleh diperbetulkan semula dan pihak terbabit perlu tampil mengiktiraf perjuangan Si Bongkok setaraf dengan nama pejuang lain seperti Tok Janggut, Dol Said dan sebagainya,” katanya.
Abdul Latip juga menggesa pihak berkuasa supaya memulihara pusara Si Bongkok sebagai satu daripada warisan peninggalan sejarah yang bukan saja dibanggakan rakyat Johor tetapi rakyat negara ini.
“Saya sendiri sudah pergi ke Tanjung Belungkur untuk melihat sendiri pusara Si Bongkok Tanjung Puteri, keadaannya amat menyedihkan kerana terbiar. Selepas 50 tahun kita merdeka, masihkah kita sependapat dengan penjajah yang melabelkan Si Bongkok itu lanun dan pengganas?” katanya.

The Bass Agents were formed in 2000 and consist of three key players; Xt-Acid and Didjital from Kuala Lumpur, (Malaysia) and Ganjaguru from Melbourne, (Australia). After 3 long years apart, the dynamic trio will join forces creating the hardest yet uplifting sound. Their name stems from 1 main element, the hardness of a driving bass line. Their music of choice includes Hard Dance, it being one of the most underground sounds in the world. Week in week out new releases are introduced globally through top-level record labels and today, Hard Dance has evolved to be one of the most prominent dance genres. Bass Agents conform to all rules of Hard Dance yet they keep it tidy by breaking a little off the edges to create a vicious representation of the genre. Whether it is a fusion of Tech-Trance & Hardstyle or even creating the most original psychedelic sound, the Agents eclectic mix of interpretations give them the ability to flow and shift the vibe of the crowd at any given time. This in turn creates an experience that keeps adrenalines fired up and spirits lifted to thrilling heights.
In recent years, the Bass Agents have been featured in majority of the Malaysian major events such as Recharge Revelation, The Renault Pit Party and The Hotlink Germany Kick-Off Party. Collectively, they have played alongside a number of Hard Dance legends such as The Prophet, Lady Dana, Gizmo, Organ Donors, Alex Kidd, Steve Hill, Phil York, Dave Joy, Technikal, Dark By Design, Andy whitby, Paul Brisk, Scot Project, DJ Wag, BK, Kai Tracid, Thrillseekers, K90, Soul-T, Derb, Walt and Johan Gielen just to name a few. The Agents took up the challenge of introducing the sound to their home country Malaysia. And only through years of sheer dedication, passion and love towards the music, they were able to MAKE IT HAPPEN. To date, the Bass Agents have been voted as Best New Local DJ by JUICE Readers Choice Awards. The founders of Malaysian's Hard Dance event Hardsequence, who feature only the best local Hard Dance Djs as well as Internationals. The brand has proven to be a top-notch night, bagging 2 JUICE Reader Choice Awards, "Best New Local Night" and "Most Up For It Crowd" in a short time frame of 12 months.

The Melbourne Shuffle is a style of dance, originating in the late 1980s in the Melbourne underground scene. The movements are typical jazz dance steps incorporated with a modern twist
.
The basis of the Melbourne Shuffle has traditionally been footwork performed by combining three basic steps.
The modern shuffler usually performs around 5 different moves while shuffling:
Dance moves from other styles such as mimeing, popping, locking, liquiding, running man and breaking can also be incorporated into shuffling.

The Melbourne Shuffle was one of several dances that emerged during the acid house era. Some have described the main dance styles in that period as jacking, stepping, and shuffling. However, as the acid house genre became more diverse, two different but not mutually exclusive, dance philosophies evolved: the back-step and the shuffle. The Shuffle has continued to evolve in Melbourne nightclubs and events over the years, and has adopted moves from established dance styles such as hat tricks, spins, and running on the spot.
Some of the major events, clubs and communities that took part in the evolution of the shuffle over the years are:
Raves and Event Organizers: Land of the Giants. Pureflow. Every Picture Tells A Story, Centre House, Melbourne CBD Commerce House, Melbourne CBD Hardware. Pharmacy (aka Kill Rock Star). Earthcore. Omniglobe / IF? Events. Smile Police. Future Entertainment. Oracle Events.
Clubs: Chinese Laundry @ Dome - 1993 by Hardware This club has since been restarted. Climax @ Inflation Night Club - Tuesday Nights from 1994 - 1997. Filter/Switch - Wednesday night and one of Melbourne’s longest running nights 1992-2001. Originally Awol Then called Escape on Friday nights run by S.O.N. @ Club CBD 1996-1998 (Pre-Bassstation). Bass Station (changed names to just "Bass" in 2006). Frantic. Wetmusik. Teriyaki Anarki Saki. The Zoetrope Live Electronica sessions @ the Punters Club, 1997-2001 Hard Kandy. PHD (Pure Hard Dance). GOD (Gospel of Dance). Bubble Nightclub (Melbourne's Weekly Rave Playground). [1] Elevation - Thursday Nights @ Shiva (Previously at Altitude)

In 2006 with the emergence of Youtube Melbourne Shuffle Channel,
dancers internationally now contribute to the Shuffle, posting their
own versions and learning from each other on-line.
The music that Melbourne Shufflers originally danced to was House Music and Acid house in the late 1980s. In the early 1990s as Trance music came in the dancing style changed to a glide which changed back when Minimal House came in. In 2007 Melbourne shufflers listen to hard trance, hardstyle, jumpstyle, hard house, psytrance, breakbeat, drum and bass, Tribal House and Techno.
Today known as "rocking" to the Melbourne locals, the name "Melbourne Shuffle" has been derived from overseas DJs, partygoers, visitors and the media trying to describe this phenomenon. Locals have simply called it the "shuffle" since 1992. The Melbourne rave/electronic music dancers don’t generally dance for competition; or to show off, but for themselves, for fun and self-expression. Learning is generally achieved through watching other dancers and incorporating variations into their own style, by which they create an individual style representing their own personality.
Some dancers sprinkle talcum powder on the floor beneath their feet to help them glide more easily. The use of talc to improve dancing has been around for decades, particularly popular with dancers at Northern Soul all-nighters in the u.s
"The Melbourne Shuffle" dance style remained relatively underground since its birth in the late 80s and early 90s. The Term "The Melbourne Shuffle" was not used till 1998 when Sonic Animation's Rupert Keiller was interviewed by RAGE. When the interviewer asked Rupert what his unique style of dance was, his reply was "The Melbourne Shuffle" since then the word circulated around the scene for a couple of years before finally being brought to light by a front page newspaper article which appeared in Melbourne's The Age newspaper in 2002, attempting to illustrate what the Melbourne Shuffle was for the first time to the mainstream public because thousands of young Melbournians were shuffling at dance parties every week.
Recently the shuffle has spread to Malaysia, most likely due to Malaysian students studying in Melbourne, discovering the electronic dance music scene and taking the unique shuffle back with them. Since 2005, there have been 'Shuffle Competitions' held in Malaysia. There were also Street shuffle exhibitions which were held at different places with the main reason as to promote this dance to the public. There were even talks about this Melbourne Shuffle on the radio and television by a team from Sarawak, called "Hazard Minors whom previously called themselves as the Kuching Shuffle Team KST)" and also were publicized on Chinese newspapers, magazines and dance journals.
Shufflers have taken their art form and self-expressive dance style overseas and are a regular sight to be seen at rave parties in the UK, Germany, Malaysia, and Thailand. Melbourne socialite and jetsetter, Jason Fabbri aka. "Dr. Shuff" is an ambassador of this particular dance, and is a regular sight at overseas dance clubs, especially in the United States. The internet has also been a factor in spreading knowledge and interest in the shuffle.
A documentary entitled Melbourne Shuffler was in production during 2004-2005 and was recently released in late 2005 on DVD.

Arghh.. well, this test is suppose to be last Monday. But the lecturer postponed it till today.. Its 0725am now n i still got 2 more hours to do a quick and last minute revision.
Hmm.. well, i hope i passed this test. I dunt want it to be 'only pass', at least a B+ or A- is really needed in order for me to keep up my CGPA... hmm. guess its struggle time. lolz..
Tonite is the 'Malam Pensyarah Bersama Pelajar Menjelang Peperiksaan Akhir'. Well, its actually like a Annual Farewell dinner for our outgoing seniors but to make it sounds like a suitable formal function, it turn out like the above.. ~duh
Ok, if its formal, why do u need a theme for it? haha.. and the theme for tonite is 'Costume' ahaks..... some might even thought of it as a cosplay. lolz.. for not having any costume to wear, i'll just goin to wear my cheogsam.. haha.. dress like an innocent chinese lady with a rihanna hairstyle.. LOLz... ahaksss
Hmm.. i've been reading Aliciaks' blog and she's been talking bout loosening some weights.. Hmm.. seems like people around me keeps on talking about it.. So, heres my part of the story.. ngehehehe... Well, last semester i really gained a lot of weight due to our intro and final camp. Well, usually i just ate once a day and hav a few other courses later, but during camping, due to the exhausting atmosphere and scheduled time to eat, i was eating 3 to 4 times daily during the camp. just imagine, the first time i set foot in Sarawak, i only weight 55kg and now gained to 63kg. But, i'm glad that all of those shufflin' paid off, coz i lost 2kg from doin those harstyle moves.. ngeheheheh... well, at least i lost some weight.. heheh..
ahakss.. here is what i've studied last semester in Nutrition class...
try to calculate ur Body Mass Index (BMI) and try to see, whether ur in a good shape, overweight, or in need of gaining weight.
Best of Luck!
Body Mass Index (BMI) is a number calculated from a person’s weight and height. BMI is a reliable indicator of body fatness for people. BMI does not measure body fat directly, but research has shown that BMI correlates to direct measures of body fat, such as underwater weighing and dual energy x-ray absorptiometry (DXA).1, 2 BMI can be considered an alternative for direct measures of body fat. Additionally, BMI is an inexpensive and easy-to-perform method of screening for weight categories that may lead to health problems.
Calculation of BMI
BMI is calculated the same way for both adults and children. The calculation is based on the following formulas:
| Measurement Units | Formula and Calculation |
|---|---|
| Kilograms and meters (or centimeters) | Formula: weight (kg) / [height (m)]2
With the metric system, the formula for BMI is weight in kilograms divided by height in meters squared. Since height is commonly measured in centimeters, divide height in centimeters by 100 to obtain height in meters. Example: Weight = 68 kg, Height = 165 cm (1.65 m) |
| Pounds and inches | Formula: weight (lb) / [height (in)]2 x 703
Calculate BMI by dividing weight in pounds (lbs) by height in inches (in) squared and multiplying by a conversion factor of 703. Example: Weight = 150 lbs, Height = 5’5” (65") |
| BMI | Weight Status |
|---|---|
| Below 18.5 | Underweight |
| 18.5 – 24.9 | Normal |
| 25.0 – 29.9 | Overweight |
| 30.0 and Above | Obese |
Subject Name : xaRaix
Age : 20 ( n still young.. ngehehe )
BMI = Weight / Height x Height
= 61kg / 166cm x 166cm
= 22.13 ( yay! i'm normal! lolz )

Ok, I dunno what to blog today. But, I’ve remembered that I haven’t blog about my Miri Dance Carnival 2008.
It all started when we qualified and won third at the Preliminary Round at Monster’s Tongue , Kuching.
So, all of us went for the grand finale at Miri.
We just got the award for Best Teamwork. Guess that’s ok than nothing rite? At least we didn’t went back empty handed.
As for my solo compy, I was the 11th and the last competitor to perform. Well, didn’t won anything.. but being the only female to qualified for the finals and to got the opportunity to compete with other male in a quite ‘Big’ event, I might say that I accomplished something that is meaningful to me.
Gained experienced and it makes me wanna compete more! Heheh
Well, the thing is that it was a last minute entry and I didn’t even practiced my routine or I just dunt know what to do until I’ve ran out of ideas and suddenly, I started doin pop and locks and other liquid stuff for the interloop ( which was damn long..)
Hey, all’s well, ends well?
I took the first early morning bus the next day due to the exams n test that is waiting for me to be seated when I get back to Kuching.
Here’s the compy groupie vid and my solo vid.
~ this is my solo vid ~
~ this is the groupy vid that won Best Teamwork ~
Yesterday, my boyfriend and I went to the cinema to watch a movie. We didn’t decided what movie to watch yet.. but just maybe going to pick any movie upon arriving later..
It was 7.15pm and the movie was already started when we arrive to the ticket booth. But hey, it’s only 15 minutes rite? So, we watched ‘ Three Kingdom’..
The movie was cool and all but I was really disappointed that it was only an hour and a half.. Woah, what a total rip off! Though movies like that would take hours to finish ( I mean like to Hindi movies )
Well, here’s the review of the Three Kingdom. Hmm.. the ending part was a bit, ‘hanging’.. coz u don’t know whether Zilong died or killed by the Coa’s or he had become hostage or…. Dunno? O_o
here's the trailer
[youtube=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6xL7mIJaKL0]
Ahah! And here’s a review of what I’ve watch on DVD jut now..
( well, being stuck in the hostel can be tremendously dull.. so, I’ve been watching DVD’s from my laptop… )
200 POUNDs BEAUTY
Starring Ju Jin –Mo , Kim A-jung
Han-Na is a very big girl with a warm heart. She is also gifted with an unbelievable voice from God. Han-Na has always wanted to be a pop-singer, but due to her appearance, could only work as a faceless singer. She provides the vocals for a popular singer named Ami, a beautiful young lady that can’t carry a note to save her life.
Also, Han-Na is in love with Ami’s music producer, Sang-June, but it is a one-sided love. One day, Han-Na is invited to Sang-June’s birthday party and receives a red dress from him to wear to his party. Han-Na was excited, yet scared. The dress is revealing and quite extravagant. With her very large figure, she is not sure if she could wear such an outfit She does eventually go to the party in the red dress, but is mortified when petite Ami appears in the same red dress. During the course of the birthday party, Han-Na absorbs more emotional trauma and she simply disappears….
here's the trailer..

Alternative Title: My Tutor Friend 2
Country: South Korea, 2007
Director: Kim Ho-Jeong, Ji Kil-Wung
Cast: Lee Cheong-Ah, Park Ki Woung (Park Ki-Woong)
Type: Romantic comedy
Rating: 5/5
Sypnosis
Japanese-Korean girl Junko (Lee Chong-ah) travels to Seoul as an exchange student in hopes of seeing a Korean student whom she had fallen in love with in Japan. She finds lodging at a guest house that provides room and board. Unfortunately, the room that she is supposed to stay in belongs to the owner's son, Jong-man (Park Ki-wong). On her first night at Seoul, Junko is forced to share the room with Jong-man. Junko wants to find another place, but the owner desires to keep Junko as a guest and offers Junko free Korean lessons from Jong-man. This disagreeable tutor, however, is a lot more interested in teaching her inappropriate words than conjugation...
wait till u watch the trailer and the movie itself.. it'll blow ur mind

the fact that Park Ki-wong is damn cute! :p
Bam Bam’s Top 3 shoes..

Just received a text message from Bam Bam..
“Do u think dis is a bad news or a gud news. Around june I’m transferred 2 Sabah or Semenanjung. Shit Maybe on july I will b going back 2 Kch 2 pick u up at da airport.”
Then couple of minutes later, he called me.
