Belajar Bahasa Korea - 3 Gaya Percakapan


Gaya sopan dan sangat formal: 
- Biasanya digunakan untuk urusan rasmi.
Contoh:
빵을 좋아합니다
(pang-el choa-ham-nida)
(Saya) suka roti.

Gaya sopan dan kurang formal: 
Contoh:
밥을 먹어요
(bab-el meogeoyo)
(Saya) makan nasi

Dua (2) gaya diatas dikira sebagai 존댓말 (jundaet-mal).




Gaya biasa/반말 (ban-mal)
-반말 (ban-mal) biasanya digunakan apabila bercakap dengan kenalan yang rapat.
Contoh:
널 사랑해
(neol saranghae)
I love you.

Selalunya, sebelum gunakan banmal, orang Korea akan minta izin sama ada dorang boleh gunakan banmal atau tak.

Jika korang lebih tua (umur), boleh guna ayat ni:-

말 놔도 돼요? (mal nwado dwaeyo?)
Boleh saya gunakan banmal dengan awak?
말을 놓다: lower the language 

말 편하게 해도 돼요? (mal pyeon-ha-ge hae-do dwae-yo?)
Boleh saya bercakap dengan awak dengan selesa?

Jika korang lebih muda (umur):

말 놓으셔도 돼요. (mal no-eu-syeo-do dwae-yo)
Awak boleh gunakan banmal dengan saya.

말 편하게 하셔도 돼요. (mal pyeon-ha-ge ha-syeo-do dwaeyo)
Awak boleh bercakap dengan saya dengan selesa.

SHINee's Comeback Teasers


SHINee will release a medley highlighting all seven tracks from their new mini album, “Sherlock,” on March 16. All the tracks will be made available online on March 19, with the hard copy of the album hitting stores on March 21. They will make their comeback performance on Mnet’s “M! Countdown!” on March 22, and will appear in all of the major live music shows including, KBS “Music Bank,” MBC “Music Core,” and SBS “Inkigayo,” over the same weekend. - Soompi

After almost 2 years they went silent for a while (busy with Japan promotion, SM Town concerts and acting), SHINee's long awaited comeback is finally here! But why the image teasers are like that, SME? My reaction to it is like, "Omo! What have SME done to SHINee?".

Thanks Onew, for showing me that it might not be so bad at all. ㅋㅋㅋ

Contoh lain, pemain baseball. Sedikit selingan, baseball merupakan antara sukan yang popular dan utama di Korea Selatan. Padang baseball di sekolah-sekolah di Korea sama banyaknya dengan padang bola sepak di sekolah-sekolah di Malaysia. Ibaratnya begitulah.

Pemain baseball adalah 야구선수. 야구 = baseball dan 선수 = pemain.

We Got Married is Scripted?


Recently, several photos, titled “‘We Got Married (WGM)’ Is Scripted(?),” were uploaded to various online communities, surprising netizens who were under the impression that the stars in the show were acting candidly and spontaneously.

In the photos, make-believe married couple T-ara’s Eunjung and actor Lee Jang Woo are enjoying their trip to Indonesia. However, the camera also captured a member of the “We Got Married’s” staff holding up a sign directing the couple on what to do next. The sign reads, “Let’s try the coconuts.”

“We Got Married” has described itself as an unscripted, reality show. As a result, the photos disappointed many viewers who believed that the words and actions from the cast were truly candid.    

Netizens commented, “Now, I don’t believe anything the stars say on the show is spontaneous,” “I don’t think producers understand the term reality show,” “Nothing is unscripted,” “The cards don’t necessarily mean the entire show is scripted. They [crew] were only directing the flow of the show.” and more. 

WGM Producer comments:

On March 12, the main producer Kim Joon Hyun spoke with Sports Chosun and said, “There are no scripts for the cast members. The staff members get the basic synopsis, but the cast members don’t get to read it in advance. They don’t have a script, and that’s why they actually have to use a cardboard on the set.”

“At the time, we were walking down a beautiful trail and Eunjung wanted to try the coconut. So we promised to have it on our way back up, but because there were so many people, the couple totally forgot about it. So in order to remind them of the coconut, our staff member used the cardboard,” he added.

“In fact, there are no variety shows that don’t use cardboards while recording. For ‘We Got Married,’ it’s a reality show, so we can’t really get involved directly. We use the cardboard once in a while, but that happens only very few times. Also, in a lot of cases, the cast members miss the sign or don’t even mention it on the show,” he continued.

The producer actually said he’s thankful for all the attention and he takes it as a positive sign. “I think it’s actually a good sign that so many people are interested in our show. And if anybody can find a writer who can come up with the script for any of our ‘We Got Married’ episodes, I’ll gladly sign that person for over a million dollars,” he said.

What Would My 3D World be with LG Optimus 3D?

This article is written by Samsung smartphone's fan who can't see any other smartphones because of Samsung Galaxy S2.

LG, the second largest South Korea conglomerate company following Samsung (source), is now bring the first glasses free 3D phone display - LG Optimus 3D.

I'm not really into LG phones because I have feeling that we don't have a chemistry when I touch it. *giggles* It is all about feeling when deals with a Cancerian. But something I do love about LG is Big Bang and Super Junior! :)


Other LG's Commercial Film (CF) featuring Big Bang and 2NE1 too! Colourful.


Do you know Big Bang will have their first World Tour Concert this year?

For Super Junior, I just stumbled upon pictures of them shooting LG Optimus CF. What a suprise! I thought Big Bang still LG's ambassador. But after google-ing, I found out that for LG Optimus model, the ambassador is SuJu! *excited*


Actually, sometimes I do think that LG Phones is cool. Like Lollipop above. :)

I am not really sure what my 3D world would be with LG Optimus 3D because I don't really care about 3D thing. In fact, I usually avoid watching 3D movies. I am wearing spectacle because of nearsightedness and have to put another spectacle to watch 3D movie is very uncomfortable for me.

But LG Optimus 3D is glasses free 3D display isn't it? I might probably enjoy my 3D world with LG Optimus 3D.

One more thing is why I do not watch any 3D movies except (ahem) 2AM 3D Show which then I felt regret watched it? - The price. I know that if you want something great, amazing, it comes with a great price too. Have to bear in our mind, is that thing worth the money we pay?


Let's see LG Optimus 3D specs.

Dimension: LxWxD (mm) | 128.8 x 68 x 11.9
Hardware Architecture: Tri-Dual (Dual Core, Dual Channel and Dual Memory)
Display: Glasses free, 4.3" inch
Camera: 5MP
Memory: 512MB (internal) | Up to 8GB (external)
OS: Android Froyo 2.2 (upgradable to Gingerbread)

Of course with the 3D features too.

Before I write this article I have read quite a lot of reviews from other tech websites. Quotes some lines from their articles that caught my attention.

Until HTC releases their HTC EVO 3D, LG has no competition for its LG Optimus 3D

The tough piece of the puzzle in reviewing this device is the fact that I’m unable to show you the 3D for what it is. Photography can't capture it, video can’t capture it. The idea here is that you need this Optimus device to actually see the 3D, the only pair of cameras able to see such magnificent glory being the two planted in your head. - AndroidCommunity

One of the Optimus 3D's most commendable qualities is its speed. - Engadget

The LG Optimus 3D is also a fat little monster, coming it at 11.9mm thick – much chunkier than the 8.5mm Samsung Galaxy S2. - TechRadar

So, LG, this is your chance to change my perception of Samsung being the no. 1 smartphone producer from South Korea. Or just give me any of your android phone so I can use it for my Android Apps development. You'll get very well credit for the project. ;)
