J.K.'s purpose of life

Since I was high school student, I always think, that I am trying to be a cool guy ,also I will be a cool guy. I think, that 'cool guy' has two meaning. One is from me(my satisfaction about me)and other one is from other people(opinion of common people about me). First one means I should be a handsome guy, be a strong guy, have a desire, have a knowlege, be smart, have a lot of money or something like that. Second one means everyone thinks I am a cool guy. It does not matter if child, young person, old man, man, or women and someone who meet me first time, and someone who has met me long time. I really wanted to be a cool guy before I went to army. I had tried to be a cool guy during long time. But now I changed my mind about second one. I still want to be a cool guy, but not for every body. I have girl friend who is waiting for me 3years and I recognized she is the one for me. So I am going to be a really cool guy for my girl

Summary

There was a championship match of World Baseball Classic between South Korea and Japan at L.A. Japan, which was the champion of the first World Baseball Classic, and South Korea, which was the champion of 2008 Beijing Olympics made an amazing game on the championship match. Japan beat the U.S.A at a semifinal match and then, they beat Korea which is the strongest rival with Japan, in the championship. It was really a close game. They got the same score in 9th inning, and Japan made 2 more points in the 10th inning. Korea's defense was really good. Also, Choo Sin Soo, who is a Korean slugger, got a homerun from Japan's pitcher. However, Ichiro, who is the best hitter on the japanese team, made a lot of amazing plays. Finally Ichiro got a big point in 10th inning. So, Japan defended the title perfectly.


Reaction

It was the best game during baseball history. Japan and korea showes us the power of Asian baseball. Now everyone agrees that Japan is the best team in the world and Korea is a very strong team. Especially the Korean team is evolving very quickly. Just 10years ago no one couldn't imagine that Korea was going to be very strong team. Also, many people thought that Japan is strong but not like the U.S.A However, they played very well in the second World Baseball Classic, So they proved they are very good at baseball. Now every big baseball fan is regarding a two of the east dragons. They are going to be stronger and pursue a high quality of baseball playing. Also Cuba and U.S.A are stimulated about Korea and Japan's playing, so they will make a very strong team and take hard training. That is why, next World Baseball Classic would be very fun and interesting. I look forward to the next World baseball Classic.

Korea fasion trend by J.K.

There are two of big fasion trend in Korea now. One of them is colorful skinny jeans and other one is dandy highschool style. Girls Generation who is the most popular singer group in Korea wear colorful skinny jeans for their brand new song. That is why many young girls are getting more interested in colorful skinny jeans. Actually, it was not that stylish at first time. Because it looks a little wired and funny. But now it is blow of fasion trend. There is another blow of man's fasion trend that is dandy school style fasion. Because one of drama which talk about love between rich handsome guy and common girl is getting more popular. Both of them are high school student in drama. The guy is really rich, so he always wear fancy clothes which looks like school uniform or teenager's stuff, even if he is just student. So most korean young guys want to follow that guy's style.

Korea flag Tae-Guk-Ki

Korean flag is called tae-guk-ki. It was made in 1882, by Korea's king go-jong. There are four of colors in tae-guk-ki. red means sun, light, king, blue means moon, night and white means peace. four pack of black sticks have different meaning. These three sticks which are in the left top of flag mean sky, spring, east and father. Four sticks which are in the left bottom of the flag mean day (it could be seen as the sun), fall, south and son. Five sticks which are right top of the flag mean month(it could be seen as the moon), winter, north and daughter. Six sticks which are right bottom of the flag mean continent, summer, west and mother. King go-jong thought Korea is independent country, so we need our own flag. That is why he made korea flag by his hand. Now, Korea flag is getting popular in nomal fashion, sports stuff and even mug or plate in my country. I hope it is not temporary.
